The Lost Science Of Yantras

Yantras are ancient graphical representations of the divine, rooted in prehistoric times and found across many cultures. In classical Sanskrit, the word, yantra, means “instrument,” or a “device”, And it can be approached differently, Yantra is derived from the root word, yam, meaning “to hold” or “to sustain the essence of an object or concept in our minds.” So Yantras are not superstitions; Yantra is a tool for our spiritual advancement. It is a sacred instrument for invoking divine energy and it works by sustaining our minds, our focus, on that truth. We will delve deeper into understanding how it operates, later in this video. Yantras trace back to the Vedic period in India (c. 1500-500 BCE), originating in India over 5,000 years ago. The Vedas, the sacred texts of Hinduism, were the first book to mention them. Yantras were initially used as a tool for ritual worship and later became associated with a mystical diagram and magical spell. The use of yantras spread throughout Asia and eventually to the West. In the 20th century, they became popular among new-age spiritual seekers and hippies. Today, people of all faiths and backgrounds use yantras to connect with the universal divine energy. Yantras are utilised in various forms: painted on temple walls, engraved on copper plates, or written on paper squares within amulets. Each yantra serves a specific purpose and holds significance in spiritual practices like those of the Aghoris, a sect of sadhus. The study of the Yantras, and meditation on them is in fact an important footstep in the particular spiritual path of the Aghoris. In essence, as Devi Bhagwat Purana reveals, 'Archabhave Tatha Yantram' means yantra is a symbol of divine power and hence, it is worshipped as a deity. Yantras From The Macrocosmic Lens. We can understand Yantras on two levels, on the microcosm and on the macrocosm. On the subtle level and the gross level. First, let's understand it on the level of the Macrocosm. #yantra #tantra #sriyantra Script: Geetanjali Edit: Harsh Voiceover: Abhinav Banerjee Score: Original & Epidemic Music DISCLAIMER 01: All ideas expressed on this channel are for entertainment and general information purposes only.
