Description

The sri yantra is a Hindu symbol composed of nine interlocking triangles enclosed in a circle with four pointed upward and five pointed downward. The upward triangles represent the masculine energy of Shiva, while the downward-pointing triangles represent the feminine energy of Shakti. Because of the nine interlocking and overlapping triangles, a total of 43 triangles are formed, all radiating from a single central point, or bindu.
Yogis believe that the sri yantra represents the cosmic sounds of the universe and can connect them to higher consciousness. Some believe that sri yantra was not created but appeared to yogis who had reached the state of bliss known as samadhi.
