Kshethra Balaka

deity intermediate Hindu single tradition · 1

Kshethra Balaka is the baby form that Lord Shiva assumes to calm Kali's uncontrollable rage. His cries as a baby arouse the maternal instinct of Kali, causing her to revert to her benign form as Parvati. This form later becomes Rudra Savarni Manu in the future.
