WHAT IS SRI YANTRA

The Sri Yantra also known as the Sri Chakra represents all the fundamental principals of Tantric philosophy. It is known as the best or supreme existing yantra and all other yantras derive from it.

Why does Bhagwan Vishnu and Bhagwan Shiv have different Namam's on there forehead. What does it indicate?

Tilaks are used to indicate one’s philsophy. Shiva’s tilak (Tripundra) is used to mark the 3 Vedic fires, while Vishnu’s tilak (Urdhva Pundra) is to show the God’s feet.

Hindus consider the area between the eyebrows is a very sacred part of the body and termed the Ajna Chakra or the third eye. It is around this place Hindus wear special marks that directly indicate their philosophical leanings. There are dozens of different marks indicating

different philsophical leanings. From a crowd, you can identify a random person’s ideology by just looking at his forehead.

Shaivites wear the Tripundra — three horizontal strips, Vaishnavites wear the Urdwa Pundra — a U shaped marking with a central mark that is either a circle

or a straight line, Shaktas wear a red dot or a line, Ganpatyas wear a range of head marking often with red sandalwood.

Why the Tripundra?
There are 3 types of holy fires to be kept at home in the Vedic tradition.
1Gārhapatya — a neutral fire that is kept in the kitchen and

used to ignite all other fires.
2Ahavaniya — a positive fire that is kept in the east for homas — celebrating the good forces.
3Dakshinagni — a negative fire that is kept in the south to defend from the evil spirits

Principles of Yog - 3 granthis

There are three granthis (psychic knots) in the physical body which are obstacles on the path of the awakened kundalini. The granthis are called brahma, vishnu and rudra, and they represent levels of awareness where the power of maya, ignorance

and attachment to material things is especially strong. Each aspirant must transcend these barriers to make a clear passageway for the ascending kundalini.

1. Brahma granthi functions in the region of mooladhara chakra. It implies attachment to physical pleasures, material

objects and excessive selfishness. It also implies the ensnaring power of tamas - negativity, lethargy and ignorance.

2. Vishnu granthi operates in the region of anahata chakra. It is associated with the bondage of emotional attachment and attachment to people and inner psychic

visions. It is connected with rajas - the tendency towards passion, ambition and assertiveness.

3. Rudra granthi functions in the region of ajna chakra. It is associated with attachment to siddhis psychic phenomena and the concept of ourselves as individuals. One must surrender

the sense of individual ego and transcend duality to make further spiritual progress.
