The Dictator Became Kali

The Dictator became Kali.
 He kept everything under control through his multiple arms.
 He was associated with destruction and death.
 He systematically destroys, to allegedly keep the world (his world) in order.
 He like Kali has seven (malicious) tongues.

 He has Seven Commandments:

-In politics, pure force is the only winner.
-Violence must be the principle.
-Cunning and hypocrisy have to be the rule.
-Evil is the only way of achieving good.
-We must not stop at corruption.
-We must encourage deception and betrayal.
-The end always justifies the means.

Kali as a destroyer … destroyer of delusion, destroyer of fear and greed, of attachments in the world of transience, destroyer of ignorance, of the veils that block divine light … just saying so you know what Kali truly represents
