Yanthras ,Explored Enigmas!
The Word Yanthra is of Sanskrit origin means ‘Machine” in English. The terminology is used here with reference to Mystical Diagrams representing Universal energy.
From time immemorial cross section of civilizations was making use of one or other type of Mystical diagrams for desired ends though mostly in crude ways. There are evidences of uses of mystical diagrams by people of Harappa and Mohanjadaro civilizations . If we trace back further the early nomadics were having their own system of diagrams and rituals for curing of diseases , warding off animals and spirits and also to control fellow beings. Though no scientific evidences may be available for all these there are numerous references in Hindu civilization and History as evident in Many puranas , Vedas and ancient scriptures.
Evolution Of yanthras:-
Though it may be difficult to know the exact timing of the development of the scientific and systematic preparation of the Yanthras presently being used as per Indian vedic system that is found be scientifically designed and rationally described, there are many references about the same in ancient Sanskrit texts and manuscripts that there were the end result of great Tapas (focused enquiry) and consequent intuitions.
Many an eyebrow may be raised here when I refer about intuitions and Tapas it is matter of fact that there are many such concepts eluding human wisdom, intelligence, and comprehension. The ultimate secret of yanthras is also one among them.
But it is a fact that these are not random generated checks , triangles, circles or other geometrical figures but a systematic ,scientific and well defined complex diagram charged with live syllables representing sounds and they themselves represent the universe and its energy .
How does Yanthras work?
As mentioned above Yanthras are energy centres artificially ,made and designed to attract a particular frequency of energy required for a given situation. In simple terms it may be well compared to the receiving sets of a Television set or Radio that retransmit the picture or voice broad cast at different frequencies. A yanthra on the other hand picks up such type of energies or vibrations required to full fill a desired objective.
The energy so conceived is directed to an individual/s or situations. It is based on the theory of universal soul and individual soul to say the jeevatma and paramatma and all living things take direction from the latter, the central energy source.
The yanthra besides being a complex geometrical diagram also contains Manthras or specific syllables or sound energies. The combination of both is well synchronized and the full power is unleashed.
As we know Manthras energise specific chakras or energy centres of Human body so also Yanthras positively or negatively influences the chakras. One important aspect of Yanthras like manthras are it not only influence the wearer but also the people and situations around him/her.
All the vedic Yanthras have a uniform pattern containing a central point and Syllable like a circle or triangle and syllable like Om or Hreem. The same is surrounded by specified circle petals or any other geometric figures .
Each figure represent a specific energy receiver and as such is unique. For example while a triangle represents a higher active energy the petals usually indicates soothing energy .Of course there are exceptions to all these theories.
The yanthras like a Dynamo generates energy and any kind of Motor can be connected to it. The mechanical device is the intended action and the same runs by the energy it generates.
Some of the mathematical formulas of these diagrams are so complex and infinite like the combinations of Chess that even the super computers are not able to solve or comprehend.
One such instance is of the Sree yanthra or popularly known Shreechakra which is being used for all round prosperity and worship of The Divine mother goddess.
Kinds Of Yanthras and Sources
The yanthras basically are divided into 3 The first kind exclusively for worship the second as a protective charm and realization of positive objectives and the third the despised and those casting spells.
While among the 3 kinds above there are numerous subdivisions classified in the name of different devatahas (deities) and 6 objectives known as shat karmas means 6 different objectives that includes Attraction, annihilation, immobilization, driving out etc.
There are numerous Indian Sanskrit texts like Yanthra chinthamani, Soundarya lahari, Sarada thilakam to mention a few describing over 10000 yanthras and more can be made should some one does really research in different combinations. However the Yanthras explainedin these texts are time tested ones and enjoys credibility.

Effective Use of Gems in Astrology
There is no need of an introduction to the world of Gems for it has become a house hold name in the recent past. Today there is no Jewelers or Gem merchant in the world who does not boast of the mystical powers of gems and its multifarious uses.
The oxford dictionary defines “Gem” as a ” precious stone something of great beauty or excellence”. It is therefore necessarily a stone , something that is natural, organic and derived from the mother earth. Though many a crystal and artificial glass piece is also termed as Gems they are in fact not Gems in the above sense and not a subject matter of discussion here..
The discovery of gems dates back to pre historic period and there are references in Indian Puranas and mythology about various precious Gems those were being amassed and formed part of the treasury of the Emperors. The award for any exemplary achievement either in warfare or in fine arts were rewarded by gifts of precious stones. It is a well known fact that the most celebrated Diamond KOHINOOR has gone from India to the then British Empire.
Gems have become affordable and formed the property of common man later, and Gem studded Jewellery is now part of the wardrobe of any modern woman.
From time immemorial besides the use of gems for the ornamental purpose its hidden qualities to substitute vital elements of Human body was known. Though believed as the Magical properties of these stones they were being used for various ends from reaping riches to remedying the maladies.
Perhaps the first standard classical Vedic Astrological text that referred about Gems is HORA SARA of the great Indian Astronomer cum astrologer VARAHAMIHIRA. The later works in and outside the country more or less copied the author on the subject. However it was not until the development of the modern science and chemistry the chemical properties of these natural stones were made known to the society and scientific testing of the stones originated. Further it also came to light that the gems are store house of abundant energy. The colour and the energy Vibrations of different frequencies contained in these stones acts as substitutes of human body elements the imbalance of which causes diseases both physiological and psychological.
Though the identification and the grading of the Gems was once through the most crude and conventional way of close examination and observation by the Human eyes where the subject element was pronounced and the chances of cheating was not uncommon, today there are scientific gem testing labs through out the world where the grade and genuiness of the Gems are scientifically tested.
The effect of the various organic gemstones in the human body were experimented by the late astrologers and native medicos and stunning results were observed. Ever since remedies by gems has taken the front seat in the astrological remedies may be due to its easy and effortless use.
The effect of Gems is basically through the energy vibrations it creates when worn in the body and also through its colour. It may not be irrelevant here to mention the system of colour therapy to cure diseases and also the application of colour concept in various other psychic healing techniques.
It has since been scientifically proved and documented the various frequencies of energy vibrations emitted by the organic Gem stones . They vary from Gems to Gems and compares well with the energy vibrations to offset the imbalance produced in the human body by the deficiency or otherwise of the vital elements which areas being called the ‘Panchabootha’ or the basic five elements viz. Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Ether which results in the three types of Doshas (Classification of human body chemistry in Ayurveda) viz Vaatha , Pittha , and Kabha.
Having seen the evolution of Gem therapy and its curative qualities let me explain in brief the various Gems and its uses in Astrology.
Ruby:-
Ruby has been considered since time immemorial as one of the most valuable gemstones on Earth. It has wonderful colour, excellent hardness and an overwhelming brilliance.
India was considered as the birth place of Rubies. As per Indian classical astrological texts Ruby represents Sun the ruler of the solar system. It is being used to offset the weakness of the Sun in the horoscope. The problems connected with a weak Sun in the horoscope is
1) Psychological & external factors:- Lack of will power and leadership qualities. Authority and displeasure of superiors, ill will of Father and father like people, Govt. and rulers etc.

Pearl:-
Pearl an organic gem, is formed when a pearl oyster covers a foreign object with beautiful layers of nacre. Though pearls were rare and costly once, often comparable in price to gold and other costly jewels today it is available in plenty thanks to pearl culture . They were rare because they were created only by chance.
For curative or for remedial purpose Natural pearl is the best one .However since the natural pearl is almost not available or very costly cultured good pearl can also be used with same results. However artificial pearl is of no use in the astrological parlance.
Remedies in Astrology:-
Pearl is an effective remedy for the weak moon in the horoscope. The symptoms of a weak moon in a chart are indecisiveness , lack of courage, immorality, wavering mind ,Asthma,Bronchitis,dermatitis etc. In short all matters affecting the emotional side can be remedied by pearl. However the suggestion for wearing a pearl should be given with caution as physical ailments caused by a weak moon cannot be remedied by pearl as it may lead to worse situations in cases of Asthma, bronchitis etc. The help of a professional astrologer should be sought in such circumstances.
Red Coral:-
Corals another organic Gem are produced by very small life forms that get settled in the depths of warm seas in vast colonies .
Uses of Coral in Astrology:-
Red coral is a stone that has to be suggested with caution. While Coral can be suggested where the planet is beneficial and favourable the same cannot be used to ward off its evil effects as perceived by many.

Perhaps certain fine emeralds are costlier than diamonds.
Some of the magnificent emeralds are to be seen in famous world museums and collections.

Friends when we talk about astrology, we mess up in rajyogas, duryogas, auspicious incidents, inauspicious happenings and so on. I don’t think we ever proceed to search out ’seriously’ beyond that. Then comes out the most controversial and debated subject what we call ‘free will’. If everything has been pre-destined, what the hell we are striving for? Is there any devil writing our fates all the time and having fun? A big No, all the saints say that nobody else, but we alone are responsible for our plight. Vivekananda says “Stand upon your feet and take the responsibility of your present prevailing circumstances instead of being a coward escapist passing all the blames upon Almighty.”
Our Seers were not mere astrologers or fortune tellers, but they were inventors. Without the help of any external aid they located so much just by going deep inside. They located the laws of nature and their influence upon human beings. If we just make a go with different yogas, then astrology seems to be mere fatalism unable to extend any aid to come out of the vicious circle what we term as destiny. In this case astrology seems to have lost its ground. The predestination of fate leaves astrology meaningless. Simply because the past has already passed, the present has been decided and the future has already been written.
I started astrology in the year 1998. Till the end of 2003 I was an incurable fatalist. During these 5 years I read almost all the literature of Vivekananda and Yogananda, the famous kriya yogi who left his human body in the year 1950. In those books I read a lot about the so called free will of human beings but with little conviction. Since as an Astrologer I was witnessing almost regularly that destiny couldn’t be altered. But the last two years changed my whole perception. I understood well what those great saints meant to say. When they talked about the free will, they were not concerned merely about the human body made of five tatvas of Nature namely water, air, earth, fire and ether.
In all actuality they were talking about the free will of the spirit, which inhabits one and all. The body and mind are bounded in the Nature’s laws, and therefore, enjoy very little freedom. When you go by the commands of mind, you gradually nullify yourself by being the slave of senses. And this blindfolded slavery binds you in lot of karmas and you find yourself stuck at the same point without moving a step further. However, as soon as you realize it, you start listening to the voice of your conscience. And this makes you free from the bondage of karmas gradually. The caliber of hearing the voice of the spirit makes you the detached observer. When you become witness of all of your deeds, only then you can uproot the roots of your karmas; only then you can realize that you were always free but this so-called slavery of senses entangled you in the web of karmas. Since you were the doer so only you can be the rescuer; nobody else.
Now I will give you one case history of mine to let you appreciate the true and practical example of all the things whatever I have narrated supra. Before the beginning of my case history, you must take note of some important things. Only then you will be able to understand the case in its full soul and spirit.
First of all, always remember that there are two phases of our human journey on this earth. One is called descending journey and other is termed as ascending journey. In the first phase we alienate ourselves completely from the God and run blindly to fulfill our desires like the story of Adam and Eve. In the second phase we realize our faults when we go through seemingly unending suffering and start calling God. In astrology the houses 1st to 7th are indicative of our descending journey. On the other hand, houses from 7th to 12th indicate our ascending journey. The houses from 1st to 7th are considered to be of dark-half and 8th to 12th houses are of bright half. Symbolically it is clear that first half of the horoscope is indicative of our descending journey when we become God to man. The other half of the horoscope tells about ascending journey when we cover up our journey from man to God.
The persons belonging to 1st phase are devoid of any will to mend their ways since they are happy in their environment. God has no importance for them. Their wrong ways are paying them well without any noticeable retribution at all. But the persons belong to the 2nd phase want to know the meaning of life because they have been suffering a lot, simply because as soon as they cross the first phase their trauma begins. This second phase is called the phase of improvement. Now the God wants you to come back to your natural abode since you have had enough now. That is why Vedas say there is no suffering; only happiness is everywhere, since this suffering leads us to endless happiness. It is just like the frog living in a well being transferred to the big ocean. So, suffering is for good of the being only.
Now learn something about the less talked astrological sides. We have three gunas in Nature, which are Satva (spiritual qualities), Rajas (materialism) and Tamas (negativity). Since planets are also the integral part of God’s creation,
they too imbibe these peculiarities to their credit. Difference is generally felt on their lordship and interaction with other planets. For example a malefic planet contains in itself more tamas (negativity) in comparison with other planets of the horoscope. The negativity of a malefic planet comes out initially at the subtle level, and then this goes down to project the gross or you say physical level as well.
For example malefic Mars of eighth house in the seventh house first of all make you sexually adventurous person then it will destroy your public reputation, married life, profession and monetary condition also since it is relating with all the houses concerning these matters. Many a time you may think that you are giving out your best to your wife and profession still you are proving to be a big failure. Once you decide to control this subtle negative energy of Mars you notice that the scenario of your married life is changing. Career-wise you are improving. Money is coming more easily and losses are going towards backyard.
And last but not the least, one should never forget that horoscope is not written by anyone. It is you who wrote it. It is you who left some space to move some steps. It is you who blocked the way completely. There is no pre-decided fortune or misfortune. You created it all and only you can improve it. Of course when you decide to alter your path, God arranges someone to extend his helping hand to guide. You can call it Guru, teacher or preceptor in whatever words you want to define it. So, now Adam has had enough after eating the ‘Apple’ of desires and now he has to go back to his real abode with her better half, the Eve.
Here is a case history. A young boy aged around 32 came to me one and half-year back. He was professionally a qualified Pilot without any career at all. His wife left him in lurch. His wife was like a terror for his whole family. She did everything to spoil his life and domestic peace, which is quite unimaginable for a common mind. And see the Maya, the boy was blindly attached to his wife in spite of her all atrocities. He could not even imagine leaving her. And she was ready to destroy his entire family. He was taken out of his parental home. Since parents were fed up with his wife. So, he was living at some relative’s house since six months. One day his wife also left him. And he became like the man without breathing at all.
After talking to him I understood well that the boy belonged to the second phase of his journey. I concentrated upon his horoscope and saw Saturn was aspecting his second house of speech, family, wealth and social status from the twelfth house of loss. Saturn as the lord of the eighth house was the Satan (villain) of Eden Garden. As a worst malefic planet in Cancerian horoscope Saturn was playing havoc. I suggested him mantra since it wards off the evil propensities of the planet to a great deal. It did lot of good for him. But I was afraid what would happen if he accidentally misses the mantra on any day in thit very turbulent period. Since I know I once suggested a mantra to a lady who was very frustrated due to her husband. He bashed her up regularly. When she started the mantra there was a change in her husband’s attitude towards her. But one day she missed it and consequently destiny dragged her to her doom. The husband committed suicide on the same night.
So, I was interested in finding the complete solution lest I might leave any stone unturned. Then one day I got something like a flash after meditation. I understood well that the Saturn was a spoilsport in the horoscope. It was Satan. Satan provokes oneself to do bad deeds. But since boy belonged to the second phase so lots of sufferings were there to mend his ways. The God was calling him back to his abode. On the contrary he stuck right there. If he hears the God’s call everything may come in its right terms
Now I started to concentrate on his horoscope again. As I told you that every planet has all the three qualities of nature (satwa, rajas and tamas) and a malefic contains in itself more tamas (negativity) in comparison with other planets. What will happen if one culls out the negativity of Saturn? The answer is simple only Satva and Rajas will remain. That was the flash, which I got after meditation.
So, now let’s talk about this Saturn once more. Saturn was aspecting the second house from the twelfth house of loss. On the negative side, Saturn was giving him abusive language, non-vegetarian food and manipulative tendencies. So, those were the tamsic qualities of the Saturn. If he removes this tamas (negativity) the things must take positive turn, I thought let’s give it a try. I told him to remove those tendencies right then. I also suggested him that every tendency is the result of a particular habit. So, I advised him that for at least 15 days he should try to practice good habits at the cost of bad habits.
I told him not to believe me right then. Just carry out the experiment as per my suggestions for two weeks and if he did not find any change, go to square one again. The boy asked me as to how could his non-vegetarian habits be regarded as negative qualities. I told him when you eat non-vegetarian food you become part of the unseen violence meted out to innocent animals for your sense gratification only. And in return you get the same amount of pain physically or mentally to understand their suffering. The boy recollected his two-suicidal attempts he did before coming to me. Also the severe mental torture he was going through. The fact of the matter is that the boy confessed his every fault which was enough proof to indicate that he belonged to second phase of his human journey.
After practicing all my advices for at least one week he told that his father had called him back to his home. His sister started talking with him, but except his mother was yet to relent. He was regaining his peace of mind. Naturally he was shocked as to how it became possible; it seemed to be a far cry just a week back. In another week he noticed so many vacancies in the newspaper related to his career line, which were hitherto absent since one year. But now they were appearing almost regularly. The boy promised that after witnessing these results he would never go to his previous path again.
Okay a number of career opportunities started surfacing, but his efforts failed to fructify by a very small margin though whenever he came very close to selection for his desired post. I was again confused why there was small margin. Did there exist any more obstacle, which of course must be very small since success eluded him by a very small margin. He was carrying all my advices sincerely and yet even after six months he had no career at all except a hopeful scenario in the form of the vacancies which were coming in dozens.
What is the obstacle now? Then again a flash came to my mind during meditation. I recollected he always used to say, “Brother in this world nothing can be achieved without recommendation and bribe”. He had host of examples to prove his point. But in spite of all money and recommendations he stood nowhere. I noticed the aspect of Saturn on the second house of social status which inspired the subject to use unjustified means to achieve position. So, was it possible that the God was saying, “Leave thy wrong method; aside only then thou will march on the path of success?”
I suggested him to use only honest means to realize his aim. He seemed to be in total disagreement with my approach. He thought I was immature enough since I didn’t know about the world and especially his profession where almost all his friends got the job through greasing palms or recommendation except a singular exception. I told him Vivekananda says, “There is nothing in this world which happens without reason”. So, why there was a single exception left for him. This is the voice of the God and he should hear it. He turned a deaf ear to my advice. After some months he came in the merit list of some company. He was happy but I was confused!
There were seven persons in the company’s merit list. The company told him that they would send him the appointment letter within 15 days. I was in maze whether I was wrong in understanding the pattern of his destiny? But see what happened after a fortnight. Somebody called him from the company and told him that there were seven persons in the list and he was the last. The company had only five vacancies and, therefore, his chances were bleak unless he offered Rs. 2 lakhs to a particular person. He asked the company why they selected 7 persons if they had only 5 vacancies. They told him that they kept some persons on waiting list as a safeguard to save extra time and energy of the Company in conducting written examination and interview once again in case somebody failed to join.
He agreed to part with the required money. The concerned person told him that he would contact him after one week to let him know where he should send the money. Two weeks had gone, but nobody contacted him. He was deeply frustrated. Then one day he got a call from the same person asking for money. He said as he was out of station, he was not able to contact the young man. In case, he could send the money immediately, he would get his appointment letter within three days. He would also give him another call next day to let him know how and where to send the money’. The young boy waited eagerly again for tomorrow. But that tomorrow converted itself in the one month without any communication at all.
The boy lost his all hopes. He thought it was futile to wait now. Then suddenly he again got a call from the same person making the same demand. The young boy became very furious. He told him straightway that ‘He is not interested to achieve his aim by such mischievous means. If the company prefers bribe more than the caliber it is better off and take over his father’s business’. His father frightened what his son did. His caring father consoled him that he would try his level best to procure proper recommendation from the concerned ministry to let the work easy for him. The son denied outrightly that he did not want any recommendation at all. He told his father that since 4 years the best available recommendations and money did nothing for him. So, now he wanted to obey the guiding lines as was given by me. No recommendation, no money, go to hell whether he would get a job or not.
He came to me in drooping spirits right then and told me the entire incident. I assured him not to be worried everything would be okay. After three or four days he came to me bursting with elation. Shouting “Bhaiya, bhaiya (brother, brother) the God has heard my request. You were right. I got the appointment letter today and I am going to join in the next week”.
So, friends this is called astrology. Astrology is not fatalism. It is realism. Planets have nothing to do with your life. This is you who have made the planets to move in a particular direction. Now he is you only who can change their movement. Tantra, mantra can give you a lot no doubt. Since they were also the invention of our great seers. But first of all take proper precautions only then go on for medication. Tantra and mantra are like the medications. They have their great value unless you uproot your karmic roots. Only then you can see the rising sun unless remain in darkness forever.
As Vivekananda says “Keep one ideal in front of you and go on struggling all the time. No fear if you fall 5,000 times since I am sure the person who has no ideal will fall 50,000 times”.
So, Vivekananda knew it is not an easy task to get rid of our habits. They are just like the skin of our human body glued strongly to the bones. But still have a start. Since we are the children of the God not common human beings. As we think about ourselves always.
