Kathoraha - One who is cruel. His cruelness is for punishing the evil and maintaining the order in the universe. The Lord is strict in protecting righteousness and ending the evil forces. There are two kinds of forms of the Lord - One is fierce and the other is a pleasing form. The fierce forms of Shiva are refered to as kathora. For example fire is a fierce form of the lord and water is a pleasant form. Both the forms are required for the existence of the world .

Katora also means complete. It also means One who has strong chest. Lord is the only one who is complete as he has no defects or faults. He is complete as He is limitless too. The vedas also say t\u0113n\u0113da\u1e43 p\u016br\u1e47a\u1e43 puru\u1e63\u0113\u1e47a sarva\u1e43 Everything is filled by the purusha. He resides in everything.
The Lord appears to be cruel to the wicked. But he is not. The doctor seems to be cruel to the patients. Really speaking the Lord is not cruel. The wicked perceive HIM to be cruel. The Lord only corrects them and sets them on the right track even through His fierce forms.
