The paper is about Hindu conceptions of time - especially the disintergrating force, conceptualized as Kali. The discussion focuses on the ritual performed at the Guheyswari temple, located in the grounds of Pasupatinath in Kathmandu. It's an odd site unlike others given that it is not a temple in any conventional sense, just as its sacra also is unusual. I try to make this comprehensible by linking this to certain propositions of Tantric Philosophy
