Yantra/Vedic Talisman

Vedic Talisman Yantra or Vedic talismans come from the ancient Hindu scriptures - the Vedas and Upanishads. "Yantra" literally means device and abode. It is believed that yantra possesses unlimited powers and its working is in complete harmony with Nature. Vedic talismans are very powerful and effective tools that remedy unfavorable astrological conditions.

Yantras are made up from Vedic symbols with straight lines, squares, rectangles, triangles and circles. These Vedic symbols are very precise in design and even the angles employed are determined to the last degree. Some Yantras may also contain numbers and alphabets of the "Devnagari" script.

The Vedic symbols represent the five basic elements : Earth, Wind, Fire, Air, Water and Ether and each element is associated with certain properties. The arrangement of Vedic symbols is such that it helps enhance the properties of one element and enervate the other. Yantras are made of many different kinds of materials such as "Ashtadhatu", gold, silver, copper, crystals, etc. Certain materials are more suited to certain Yantras.

A Yantra or Vedic talisman is energized with sacred Mantras composed in Sanskrit and then it becomes active. It is then considered to be a dwelling of the Gods it represents. The energized Yantra is an independent source of positive energy that influences the surroundings and the people who worship it.

Workings and Energization of a Yantra
The visual equivalent of a Mantra is a 'Yantra'. It is a scientific fact that when sound waves of certain frequencies are directed at a Yantra, the reflected waves are in the same pattern as the inscribing on the Yantra surface. This principle is called wave polarization. Yantras accumulate and concentrate different forms of positive energy and this energy is released when we focus on a Yantra. The release of this energy causes positive vibrations that heal and energize us.

According to the astrological position of planets, a date for the energization of Yantra is decided. The Vedas have stated complex and ancient rituals for the energization of Yantras and it happens in the presence of sacred fire. Mantras and hymns are sung and offerings made to invoke the gods. The gods are invoked to invest their power and presence on the Yantra thereby, enriching it with positive energy.
