Sri Yantra — 9 Interlocking Triangles (simplified)

Sri Yantra

श्री यन्त्र
Definition

Nine interlocking triangles around a bindu point — the supreme yantra.

The Sri Yantra interlocks nine triangles — four pointing up, five down — around a central bindu, the point from which all reality emanates, radiating outward through lotus petals and gates to the edges of the cosmos. It is meant to be both contemplated and "entered," from rim to centre.

What it unlocks

The Sri Yantra unlocks the idea of the cosmos as emanation from a single point, and of geometry itself as a path: unity and multiplicity held in one figure, the infinite generated by the meeting of opposites. It makes meditation spatial — a diagram you can think your way into.
