Chinnamasta yantra T-Shirt

Chinnamasta is the Goddess who causes us to ‘cut off our own heads’, or, in other words, freeing ourselves from the limitations of the mind. She is the shakti or power of Indra- lightning, the electrical energy of transformation. This represents direct perception, cutting through everything and revealing the Infinite beyond all forms. Chinamasta is also the Kundalini in her active role. Her activity is in the Sushumna nadi, where She traverses up and down and distributes this electrical energy through all the nadis throughout the body. She is also Yoga Shakti, or power of Yoga in its most dramatic action. .~Yantras are a very significant remedial tool in Vedic astrology like mantras (which are concentrated sound vibrations). Yantras are said to be visible forms of a mantra, mystical diagrams which have a lot of potent energy and power. These are geometrical compositions which are so precise and powerful that they emanate specific energy fields and continuous gazing at it can facilitate meditation. Each yantra is a sacred enclosure, a dwelling or residing place of deity associated with it. Not only in the Indian culture but many old cultures have had their own sacred symbols or sacred geometry. These geometric designs representative of their gods which has a sound vibration that corresponds to it Indians, Egyptians, Jews, Chinese and Mayans had planetary yantras to combat malefic influences. The Celtic knot motifs, Runes in Scandinavian countries, Tantric yantras and Buddhist mandala which can be traced back to Vedic sources. It is also important to note that all original cultures have a tradition of "sacred geometry". For example, there are tremendous similarities in the Celtic Knot motifs, sand paintings of the Native Americans, geometrical emblems of the ancient Hebrews and Oriental design patterns.

Such complex energy transformations lend support to the conclusion that yantra and mantra in the ultimate sense are one and the same. Just as each planet has a mantra, a special sound energy, so too it possesses a yantra or special energy pattern. The yantra is the visible form, the energy body, of the mantra, and of the planet to which it corresponds.
