i love this song! one of my fav dissection songs! anyway, about this song... The meaning is quite self explanatory. anyway...... Firstly, i am hindu. This song quite ironic really considering that the lead singer was a satanist. Maha (meaning divine mother) Kali (meaning black in tamil) is the hindu goddess (an entity of God) of war and destruction and the destroyer of evil. (so She is NOT AT ALL evil) and the hindu religion enforces that God is the Creator, Preserver and Destroyer of all things living. so, just as God created us all, He will destroy us all. i guess nodtviedt (not sure of the spelling) produced this song bcuz he knew he was going to kill himself and so he called out to Maha Kali to take him away. 'Jai Kalika Jai Kali. Kali Mata Namo Nama' sounds very similar to something out from a hindu service, or satsung. it seems like it is a Kali mantra but isn't bcuz people cannot create their own mantra. the proper Kali mantra is 'Om Sri Kalikaye Namah' mata means mother.

@Lord_nephthys Maha means "great". So Mahakali means The Great Kali.

@Lord_nephthys Thank you so much for the insight!

I know you think its somewhat ironic, but do you think its actually very sad since Kali is the destroyer of evil, and Nödtveidt called for her to take him?
