|smt1= | |smt1=Origin: India<br>Another name for Shiva, god of destruction. "Maha" means "great" and "kala" means "black." In Buddhism he is called Daikokuten. A misunderstanding in China led to him being known as a god of the kitchen. Some say he was made one of the Seven Lucky Gods due to Okuninushi's reputation. (Okuninushi's name can also be pronounced "daikoku.") The true Mahakala is nothing like that and looks more like a demon than anything. | ||
