Sampoorna Sri Sri Yantra. The Sri Yantra is regarded as the Supreme Yantra. Any Yantra ever designed is but a part or fraction of the Sri Yantra; it both includes and transcends all Yantras ever made, and no Yantra existing can not be found in the Sri Yantra. The benefits of all Yantras are therefore to be found individually and collectively in the Sri Yantra. The Sri Yantra confers luck, prosperity and fame.
The Sri Yantra, also known as the Yantra of the cosmos, is a highly eye-catching and one of the most dynamic of all Yantras with a total of nine triangles, four pointing upward and five pointing downward. Despite this asymmetrical aspect, the diagram gives an aura of perfect symmetry. The upward pointing triangles are Shiv triangles, and the downward pointing ones are Shakti. The intersection of these triangles symbolically produces manifestations in the material world. The dot, or the 'bindu' in the center, represents individual consciousness, otherwise translated as the spirit, or the soul. The Sri Yantra should always face the west, placed in the east.

Yantras anointed with chandan (sandalwood) paste, sindoor (vermilion) and milk mixed with floral-scented oil.
Yantra Puja:- Owing to a great many requests from our clientele who wished to have some idea as to how the Yantras offered on the indiayogi website are energised, we decided to show them the elaborate and beautiful process in detail.
- The Yantra 'puja' (adoration) was performed in the Shri Bhidbanjan Mahadev Temple - a Shiva temple, which is located at Colaba (Mumbai, India). The entire Yantra puja is an fairly elaborate ritual, which goes on for over 5 hours.
- The 'pandits' (temple priests) place all the Yantras in their groups. Each set of Yantras has a kalash (brass or copper pot filled with sacred water) with a coconut and different fruits, grains and betel leaves in front of it.
- All Yantras are then anointed with chandan (sandalwood) paste, sindoor (vermilion) and milk mixed with floral-scented oil. A white flower is also kept on each Yantra, to worship it individually as the Yantra is a deity in its own right.
- The ritual begins with 'Abhishek' (the ceremonial bath), worshipping Lord Ganesh. Ganesh holds a unique position in the religious culture of India, a position that has no parallel in any other religion. Any ceremony, ritual, puja or new undertaking has to begin with invoking the power of Ganapati, otherwise it is regarded as futile.
- After the Ganesh puja is complete, each God and Goddess of the respective Yantra is worshipped. This is done with the recitation of a Mantra for that particular Yantra. For example, for the Sri Yantra, the Sri Mantra is recited; for the Gayatri Yantra, the Gayatri Mantra is recited; for the Maha Mrityunjay Yantra, the Maha Mrityunjay Mantra is recited, and so on.
- Preparations are then made for the Yagna (sacred fire ritual) to be performed. This is the concluding part of the Yantra puja and goes on for over an hour. Sandalwood, fragrant herbs and pure ghee are used as an offering to the 'Agni' (sacred fire), with the recitation of Mantras.
- The Yantras are then energised with the vibrations of the Mantras. The energised Yantras are thus empowered and support and enable the purpose for which they are being used.
Yantras Disclaimer: All Yantras are to be understood as enhancing potential that exists. They cannot force something to happen that is against natural karma. Yantras aid and assist in bringing about a desirable outcome, but they cannot force something to take place. You cannot force somebody to love you, you cannot force good luck and prosperity, but Yantras will speed up the process if it exists as a potential, they help in reducing the time before some thing good manifests, they help in removing obstacles that may exist. Yantras cannot force some thing to happen because it is desired; they enable it to be manifest if it is karmically deserved. Yantras must always be handled with the utmost respect and consideration as careless and cavalier treatment will quickly reduce their power.

Q: What is a Yantra? A: Literally'Loom' or later, meaning'Instrument' or even ''Machine''.
In actual practice a Yantra is a symbolic representation of aspects of divinity, usually the Mother Goddess. It is an interlocking matrix of geometric figures, typically circles, triangles and floral patterns that form fractal patterns of great elegance and beauty. Though drawn in two dimensions, a Yantra is supposed to represent a three dimensional object. Three-dimensional Yantras are now becoming increasingly common. The Yantra is primarily a meditation tool both for serious spiritual seekers as well as sculptors in the classical tradition. Before creating their artifact in wood, stone or metal, they draw up a Yantra that represents the attributes of the god they wish to sculpt. Intense meditation upon it causes the fully formed image to leap into the mind's eye with an intensity that is remarkable for its imprinting ability, for then they do not need to use a sketch till the completion of the image. Yantras are also used for more mundane purposes, to enhance the quality of life, to attract prosperity and abundance, even love, to heal and relieve health problems, to protect oneself from negative forces and so on.
The Yantra is mistakenly thought to be a symbol purely of the manifold aspects of the Mother Goddess. This is an understandable error as most Yantras are indeed connected to the Goddess the most famous one being the Sri Yantra, an abstract representation of the Mother (and Father too!) as Cosmos. This Sri Yantra is commonly misunderstood to represent Laxmi, goddess of fortune, but it is more true to say it includes and transcends every notion of divinity ever conceived by the Indian spiritual imagination. However there are Yantras for Ganesha and Kubera too, male deities, though they share a common Yaksha origin with Laxmi. The Yaksha were the original chthonic deities of India and the Yantra system seems to have been incorporated into the Vedic worldview at a later stage.
Within the body of the more complex Yantras are inscribed the monosyllabic mantras, the bija or seed mantras, that are supposed to constitute the spiritual body of the goddess or god. The design always focuses the attention onto the center of the Yantra, usually a dot or bindu, which is the Locus Mundi, the center of all things and represents the Unmanifested Potential of all creation. The other figures usually symbolize the various stages within the unfolding of creation. Thus, every Yantra is a symbolic representation of both the deity as well as the universe, as the mother goddess not only permeates the substance of
