Yantra

Yantra. Sacred geometry Sripad Vishnupada Babaji Translation of the original book in Spanish by Sripad Vishnupada Babaji, Yantra. Sacred geometry. The Sanskrit word Yantra comes from the prefix yan, which means to conceive and, par excellence, mental conception. Yantra, then, literally means "device", "artifice", "mechanism", "tool" or, more precisely, "instrument". The Yantra is a graphic design, based on geometric figures made of linear elements, inscribed on a flat surface, which attempt to synthetically represent the different modalities of energy, including the subtle ones, in the natural world. They are visual tools that help meditation, being numerical and/or written representations of the different divinities (manifestations of God), as they were perceived by the great seers of ancient India.
