Yantras 
Yantras are geometrical figures intended
to represent the basic energies. Just as every elementary geometrical
figure, a straight line, a square, a cross or a triangle etc., has
a symbolic value corresponding to the basic notions, similarly,
the Yantras symbolise one or the other power or energy. In other
words Vedic Yantras are the graphic representations of Mantras.
Yantras can be drawn, engraved or painted on a variety of substances.
The classical eight tantrik surfaces are gold, silver, copper, crystal,
birch, bone, hide (which can include any type of paper), and Vishnu
stone (shalagrama).
Yantras should always be used on the level. If drawn on paper the
 colours
preferable are red, orange, yellow or a combination of these. They
can be drawn to whatever size is required. The two main types of
yantras are Bhu and Meru. The former is flat, two dimensional, the
latter is of pyramidal form. In worship they should be placed level
on a pedestal or pitha. Before any yantra is made a suitable object
for puja, it must be given life (pranapratishta).
Yantras are designed to remove the afflictions to obtain
a particular result eg. to have a child, to have a positive balance
in the bank, or to have the awareness to control one's temper in
order to enhance one's performance at work etc. The Yantras are
inscribed with the mystical inscriptions of the afflicted beneficial
planets at a particularly auspicious time to suit the individual
wearer.The diagrams such as circles, triangles, squares and even
a 'dot' are used as Yantras. All these represent cosmic energies.
A dot known as bindu in Sanskrit symbolizes all pervading space-the
origin of all that exists.
The yantras shall be seen daily in the morning and one shall lit
incense or lamp before the yantra every morning. It is auspicious
and blesses the native with success and wealth. Rudraksh.info provide
