      Sri Yantra Bhavana Upanishad - Ashwini Kumar Aggarwal

      Blessing

      Yoga is not just a set of stretches but an attitude –

      How you care for Nature,

      How you connect with people

      of all races, cultures and religions.

      That oneness with Divinity, with Nature and People,

      is the real essence of Yoga!

      Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

      Preface

      Adi Shankaracharya’s masterly commentary on eleven Upanishads is the de facto standard for Vedanta. These eleven have been named the principal Upanishads. Though it is said there are 1180 Upanishads written over a period of a thousand years, actual manuscripts available as of now are 108 only.

      A chart that lists the eleven Upanishads commented on in detail by Sankara.

      Rigveda

      Gives the fundamental laws of creation

      Aitareya

      प्रज्ञानं ब्रह्म

      Samaveda

      Gives the intrinsic harmony within creation

      KENA, Chandogya

      तत् त्वम् असि

      Shukla Yajurveda/Krishna Yajurveda

      Gives the specific design, administrative and governing principles for a family or a nation

      Ishavasya, Brihadaranyaka, Katha. Taittiriya, Shvetashvatara

      अहं ब्रह्म अस्मि

      Atharvaveda

      Gives the specific ritucharya and dinacharya for an individual

      Mandukya, Mundaka Prashna,

      अयम् आत्मा ब्रह्म

      Four great illuminating statements or mahavakyas are listed above with their corresponding Upanishads in bold.

      Vedic Sanskrit can never be adequately translated. It has sutras and dictums that can each form an entire school curriculum. The only way is to wait until words and sentences sprout after deep meditation in the presence of an enlightened master.

      The Sri Yantra Bhavana Upanishad is attributed to the Atharvaveda. It is a later Upanishad that illuminates the Bhavana or Deeper Emotions connected to the Sri Yantra, the body of the Mother Divine, and also the body of Divine Yogic Union of Purusha and Prakriti.

      It expounds the innermost intense feelings of the Soul, its basic desire, and ways and means to connect and unite with the ultimate consciousness.

      In this text, Sri Chakra and Sri Yantra are synonyms. The Wheel of Life is properly grasped by a physical constructed Yantra that deciphers the Purpose of Life.
