Abstract for Online Program Book (maximum 150 words)
This proposal seeks to explore the key Tantric objects used in the Kālikākrama, a powerful and esoteric Tantric tradition within Śākta practices centered on the worship of the goddess Kali. Known for embodying destruction, transformation, and liberation, Kali is the focal point of transformative rituals that connect practitioners to her energy. The study will focus on the symbolic meanings, functional roles, and deeper spiritual connections of these sacred objects used in Kālikākrama rituals. By analyzing these tools, the research aims to highlight how they facilitate communion with the divine feminine and guide practitioners towards spiritual liberation.
