This book is about Goddess Kali and her relentless fight against Shumbha-Nishumbha. Learn about the birth of the angry Goddess and how she defeated the evil and corrupt powers one after another.

"Although she is often presented (in her warrior aspect) as cruel and horrific, with her lolling red tongue and necklace of severed heads, Kali is creator and nurturer - the essence of Mother-love and feminine energy (Sakti). As Divine Mother Lotus-goddess, she brings worlds to birth, sustains them and absorbs them, in a never-ending cycle of her own opening and closing."--Back cover.

Ellyn, a very beautiful and charismatic acting student, found her true calling in uncovering the workings of the human soul to its core. Her energy and knowledge not only made people very successful but also had the ability to heal and transform any individual she came upon. Sadly, those she worked with met her with ignorance and abuse, not allowing her to shine in her own light. For much of her adult life, the world treated Ellyn as if she was invisible, pushing her to the edge of existence on numerous occasions. Ellyn knew that the key to a better world was found in women and simultaneously, women were also the very reason for the current decline in the world which gave her no choice but to study and work with many of them from across the globe for years until it enabled her to free herself from the prison she had found herself in. It was then that she discovered the one who created her and to bring her gift into the world with was a well-known rockstar who had written about her in many of his songs.
Women are constantly being told that it's simply too difficult to balance work and family, so if they don't really "have to" work, it's better for their families if they stay home. Not only is this untrue, Leslie Bennetts says, but the arguments in favor of stay-at-home motherhood fail to consider the surprising benefits of work and the unexpected toll of giving it up. It's time, she says, to get the message across -- combining work and family really is the best choice for most women, and it's eminently doable. Bennetts and millions of other working women provide ample proof that there are many different ways to have kids, maintain a challenging career, and have a richly rewarding life as a result. Earning money and being successful not only make women feel great, but when women sacrifice their financial autonomy by quitting their jobs, they become vulnerable to divorce as well as the potential illness, death, or unemployment of their breadwinner husbands. Further, they forfeit the intellectual, emotional, psychological, and even medical benefits of self-sufficiency. The truth is that when women gamble on dependancy, most eventually end up on the wrong side of the odds. In riveting interviews with women from a wide range of backgrounds, Bennetts tells their dramatic stories -- some triumphant, others heartbreaking. The Feminine Mistake will inspire women to accept the challenge of figuring out who they are and what they want to do with their lives in addition to raising children. Not since Betty Friedan has anyone offered such an eye-opening and persuasive argument for why women can -- and should -- embrace the joyously complex lives they deserve.
