Sri

Yantra

A SACRED GEOMETRY and UNIVERSAL SYMBOL TRANSLATED INTO SOUND


for MEDITATION, CHAKRA BALANCING, RELAXATION and WELLNESS.

Presented at the Deepak Chopra, M.D. and David Simon, M.D.'s seminar, «The
Seduction of Spirit".

The Sri Kantar - or Yantra of Creation - is the most revered of all Hindu yantras. There
is a mysterious beauty that arises in the way that 9 diverse triangles can inter link to
form a state of perfect balance and harmony - creating 43 smaller triangles that
comprise the Sri Yantra.

This very ancient symbol


made an interesting appearance in modern times. It happened as a result of a series of
experiments in the field of cymatics (the study of the interrelationship between energy
and matter.) The sacred Hindu symbol "OM", when correctly intoned into the
tonoscope (a devise that transforms sounds into their visual representations on a screen),
produces a circle which is then filled in with concentric squares and triangles, finally
producing, as the last traces of the 'M' disappear from the screen, the Sri Yantra.
The sound vibration patterns which are generated by the many angles of the
triangles of the SRI YANTRA were calculated by using the essential element of
the circle around the triangular patterns, PI (3.1416) as the basic unit to which all
the other ratios could relate. Therefore 3.1416 became a frequency vibration rate
which, when doubled in value 6 times becomes 201.0624 cycles per second (or
Hertz, ab. Hz) which is a sound tone equal on the international tuning scale of
G+43 cents. Cents are divisions of micro tuning between notes on a piano
keyboard. Each cent equals 1/100th division of sharp or flat between notes.

Both on side A and side B, I played the completed Sri Yantra through a series of
thirteen different octaves (each octave being exactly twice or half of the
frequency before or after it). This would correspond to Sri Yantras of different
colours (each sound frequency has a colour frequency correspondence separated
by 40 octaves) and also to different sizes of Sri Yantras - extremely small with a
high pitch and extremely large with a deep pitch. This approach makes these
sound tracks a powerful tool for reaching deeper states of consciousness. Enjoy!

Sincerely,

Dr Jeffrey Thompson.
