Once Kali had destroyed all the demons in battle, she began a terrific dance out of the sheer joy of victory. All the worlds or lokas began to tremble and sway under the impact of her dance. So, at the request of all the Gods, Shiva himself asked her to desist from this behavior. However, she was too intoxicated to listen. Hence, Shiva lay like a corpse among the slain demons in order to absorb the shock of the dance into himself. When Kali eventually stepped upon her husband she realized her mistake and bit her tongue in shame.

This is probably the more popular image

yea, Hinduism is a really deep and intricate religion. There are so many gods which span so many reincarnations. its good reading.

I remember that statue from IRT: Deadliest Roads. If it has as much as a tiny crack the statue can not be worshiped. So it was interesting to see the drivers navigate the treacherous terrain with the statue as cargo.

It is an interesting religion aside from the sexism. Visited a Hindu temple and the art/statues are extremely intriguing. The stories of how the gods came to be are also extremely fascinating IE how Ganesha got the head of an elephant, Siva and Kali, The Monkey protectors. al very fascinating if you are into theology and mythology.
