+
+
+> The Sri Chakra or Shri Yantra of Tripura Sundari is a yantra or mandala formed by nine interlocking triangles surrounding the bindu. Four of these triangles are orientated upright representing Shiva or the Masculine. Five of these triangles are inverted triangles represent Shakti or the Feminine. Because it is composed of nine triangles, it is also known as the Navayoni Chakra.[1]

+
+> Together the nine triangles are interlaced in such a way as to form 43 smaller triangles in a web symbolic of the entire cosmos or a womb symbolic of creation. Together they express Advaita or non-duality. This is surrounded by a lotus of eight petals, a lotus of sixteen petals, and an earth square resembling a temple with four doors.[1]
+
+> The Shri Chakra is also known as the nava chakra because it can also be seen as having nine levels. Each level corresponds to a mudra, a yogini, and a specific form of the deity Tripura Sundari along with her mantra. These levels starting from the outside or bottom layer are:[1]
+
+1. Trailokya Mohana or Bhupara, a square of three lines with four portals
+2. Sarvasa Paripuraka, a sixteen-petal lotus
+3. Sarva Sankshobahana, an eight-petal lotus
+4. Sarva Saubhagyadayaka, composed of fourteen small triangles
+5. Sarvarthasadhaka, composed of ten small triangles
+6. Sarva Rakshakara, composed of ten small triangles
+7. Sarva Rohahara, composed of eight small triangles
+8. Sarva siddhi prada, composed of 1 small triangle
+9. Sarvanandamaya, composed of a point or bindu
+
+> The Sri Chakra (called the Shri Yantra) is the symbol of Hindu tantra, which is based on the Hindu philosophy of Kashmir Shaivism.
+
+
+Vijnanamaya — spiritual body composed of prayer and fortified by meditation

+> Imagine that every man's mind is an island, surrounded by ocean. Each seems isolated, yet in reality all are linked by the bedrock from which they spring. If the ocean were to vanish, that would be the end of the islands. They would all be part of one continent, but their individuality would be gone.
