Key to the Universe Sri Yantra Sterling Silver Pendant

The Sri Yantra is a sacred symbol and is the Key to the Universe. Our sterling silver Sri Yantra pendant measures 1.25" across.  The Sri Yantra is an ancient design of sacred geometry that maps the spiritual journey. The nine interlocking triangles are divided into five downward-pointing ones representing Shakti and four upright ones representing Shiva. Shakti is the divine feminine energy. Shiva is the masculine principle. They represent energy and consciousness.  Yantra comes from two base words in Sanskrit "Yam" and "Trana". Yam translates as "instrument" and Trana as "release from bondage". Therefore, Yantra is a tool that aids in liberation. When used in meditation and contemplation, this sacred geometry design aids one along the path. The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe about us, the less taste we shall have for destruction.   Rachel Carson We also offer this design in a sterling silver Sri Yantra ring.
