Dash Mahavidyas:

Mahakaali:
Mahakaali is the Aadi Vidya, she takes different avatars to accomplish various tasks for Devas. In Markandeya purana, at the end of the Kalpa, when Vishnuji on his Shesh Shaiyya in ksheer Sagar was in yoga nidra, at that time 2 demons Madhu & Kaitabh, wanted to kill Brhmaji, who called Vishnuji but was not able to bring him out of his yog nidra. Brhmaji worshipped Devi Shakti, who appeared in form of Mahakaali.
In Markandeya Purana, while fighting with the demon Chanda, due to anger Devi's face turned black, from her forhead Kalika appeared.
Valmiki has written Ramayan, he has also written, Gupta Ramayan or Rdbhut Ramayan, in that while fighting with 1000 headed Ravan, Ram turned inconscious. Sita saw, this got angry turns black, as Mahakaali kills this Ravan, who was 10 faced Ravan's brother. Then Ram worships her with her sahastra naam.
Mahakaali, DakshinKaali, Bhadrakaali, Smashankaali, Guhyakaali 7 Rakshakaali are various names of this Prakruti roopa Devi. Her Shiv is Mahakaal.
Tara:
In Vedas Sun is considered as main support of the world. Sun was considered the first Rudra. He was Ugra, his Shakti is called UgraTara. She rules centre of the World. After pralaya, when the world becomes smashan, becomes Shav, she stands on the heart of this Shav.
From 12 in the night till Sunrise Mahakaali rules the Universe, after that Maa Tara rules. When Mahakaali took blue coloured form, she was called NeelTara. this form was to kill the demon Hayagreeva. She can be pleased faster, is always eager to help her devotees. Her Shiv is Akshobhya.
Tripursundari or Shodashi:
Devi Aadya Shakti appears in her Dark & Fair form. She had appeared from Goddess Parashakti, created the Trimurti, was worshipped by them that's why she is called Tripura. She is Shakti of calm Shiv. panchvaktra Shiv has 5 heads, 10 hands, 3 eyes. His shakti is Shodashi. She is also called Brhma-vidya, Shri-vidya.
Once Agastya rishi saw humans living in bad condition, he was compassionate towards them, he stopped at Kanchipuram, worshipped Mahavishnu, who was pleased with his penabnce gave him her idol.To explain the importance of the Devi Shodashi, one of his ansh Hayagreeva was appointed, who explained him Devi Lalita Tripursudari's mahatmya. She gives Dharma, arth, Kaam, Moksh to her devotees.

Shali, in the real puranik version Sati was divine she was already awakened. Shivji was aware but was shocked when all her roops appeared at the same time.
In the show Sati is showed human, even Shivji's human side is shown. He is helping her awaken her powers through yoga.Due to Shivji & Shakti's (Sati/Parvati), convo many scripures have resulted, helping humans enlightening them to live a better life. From time to time he is shown thinking of his seperation from Sati, which must not have happened in the reality.

God is beautiful in all vibrant ways ...
BUt tell me one thing Vishnuji is a Bachelor till Amrit Manthan ,then in this show they are Constantly Showing MahaLakshmi as a Sole Consort of LOrd VIshnu.
WHo is her Father ,Sage Birghu or SamudraRaj (Only he has a daughter of Fortune not Birghu) .?...

If she is the Daughter of Sage BIrghu then Vishnu ji is his Jamai but ,BIrgu still residing in his FIL's house its strange😲

Brhmaji, Vishuji & Shivji were given their consorts in the form of Devi Saraswati, Lakshmiji & Aadi Shakti by Goddess Parashakti before the creation began. Then Brhmaji asked Shivji to part with Aadi Shakti. This story of Samudra manthan has not yet happened.
In Maa Shakti show Trimurt's consorts left them because they were ignored by their husbands. Then Vishnuji got Lakshmiji back at the time of Samudra manthan, rest I don't rember😆
