The Divine Mother is a treasure house of all arts or Kalas.
She has Her creations, all universal beings as Her wealth. Kala can be said to be living beings. For an honourable King, his real assets are his subjects; In this universe, there are very many beings in various forms and attributes; they are all the wealth of the Divine Mother.
The Kalas giving happiness are termed as Chandrakala. There are sixteen types of them. They are all indicating the Divine Mother’s states. In doing Yoga all our karmic effects are offered to the Divine Mother in the fire. Such positive punya karmas are also Kalas. They are countless and keep growing always. They all end in Supreme Brahman. The Divine Mother is such a glorious Kalanidhi.
She is the base for all Kalas. There are sixty-four identified Kalas. In addition, there are sixteen Kalas of the Moon. else Sun, Fire, Brahma, and Vishnu also have Kalas assigned in their names, as visualized Kalas; the souls are the Kala rupas of the Brahman. The Divine Mother is a treasure house to hold all these various Kalas. She is celebrated as Kalanidhi.
There are numerous riches of art hidden within the Divine Mother, just as the wealth contained in a treasure buried underground. Kala also can mean Prana, the vital air; the Divine Mother is the foundation for all these Kalas.
The Divine Mother is a treasure house of all universal arts or Kalas.
