Kali-Ma in (a few) different religions.

Firstly, who is Kali-ma?:

Kali-ma is the wrathful and protective force of Shakti (energy/power), often called the goddess of destruction, doomsday, transformation and time. She's a caring mother to her devotees and the destroyer of evil.

Kali-ma in Buddhism

Palden Lhamo is a protector of Buddhist & a bodhisattva associated with prosperity, protection & success

The connection between Kali-ma and the protectress bodhisattva Palden Lhamo suggests a link between the two traditions.

Palden Lhamo has many names: Sri Devi, Palden Lhamo Kalidevi, and so on.

“Palden lhamo Kalidevi” This name alone suggests a connection to Kali-ma in Hinduism. This connection may be due to the geographic proximity of the Himalayan region, where Hindu deities may have been absorbed into Buddhism.

Kali ma in Christianity

known as "Sara Kali" or "Sara la Kali," is revered by the Romani people and is the patroness of displaced people. There is a popular belief that she was either an Egyptian-Indian slave of one of the 3 Mary's or the lost daughter of Jesus.

When the Romani people were persecuted and forced to convert to Christianity, they blended their indigenous Hindu beliefs with Christian practices, creating a form of syncretism.

The name "Sara" itself is seen in the appellation of Durga as Kali-ma in the famed text “Durgasaptashati"

Okay, this might sound a little controversial (or maybe not), but I keep seeing a lot of posts around here saying things like “we miss the old desiblr,” “bring the old desiblr back,” or “this new desiblr just doesn’t vibe.” And hey, I totally get where you’re coming from. Nostalgia hits hard.

But if you really miss the old desiblr, why not try creating that vibe again instead of just mourning it? Honestly, I get it. A lot of people miss the "old desiblr," the vibe it had back in the day. But here's the thing-if we miss it so much, why don't we try to bring it back instead of just talking about it? How are we expecting things to change if we're just stuck in nostalgia?

Have any of you ever paused to think how these posts might make new people feel? Like the ones who just joined imagine seeing post after post saying how the space used to be “better.” Wouldn’t that feel a little unwelcoming? A little like they don’t belong? When they see "this isn't the same" or "old desiblr was better," how does that make them feel? Left out? It's easy to forget how much impact these comments can have.

I’ve been on Tumblr since ‘22. I wasn’t always active, but I’ve been around. I’ve seen how communities moved, changed, disappeared, or bloomed again. And yes, I remember when it did feel a certain kind of special. But honestly? If you miss it so much, maybe it’s time we be that energy instead of just longing for it.

I'm not saying we should forget the past-of course, the old days had their charm-but maybe we should start being the change we're talking about. We've all been a part of this community for a while, but if we want it to thrive like it did before, we need to put in the effort to make it feel inclusive again. To make it ours again. Let’s make this a space people want to be in. Especially the new ones. They might just surprise you.
