Illusion of Money, Shri Chakra

 

Each Yantra (mystic designs or patterns) is a design indicating a concept of spiritual knowledge. For example, the Shri Chakram indicates the whirlpool or illusion of money. The four triangles in this pattern represent the Lord indicating Manas (oscillating/vacillating part of the mind), Buddhi (intellect), Chittam (memory) and Ahankara (ego). These four [are the four parts of the mind and] indicate the life energy or the basis of knowledge. The five triangles in the Shri Chakra indicate the five elements, which constitute the Maya or ignorance. In one type of Shri Chakra the knowledge becomes the base. In this type, the base of the four triangles of knowledge is upwards and it is called ‘Samhara chakra’ which means the destruction of the mental bond with money. In the other type of Shri Chakra, which is called the ‘Srushti Chakra’ the base of the five triangles of Maya is upward and this denotes the formation of the mental bond with money.

 

The three circles denote the three types of bodies in both types of Shri Chakra. In the first Chakra the eight petals of a lotus indicate the eight super powers and the sixteen petals of another lotus indicate the sixteen divine qualities of the Lord. The four gates indicate the four Vedas. In the second Chakra the eight petals indicate the eight forms of wealth and the sixteen petals indicate the sixteen Kalas (phases of the moon, representing the mind). The four gates indicate the four Purushaarthas or human goals. These are Dharma (righteousness), Artha (wealth), Kama (pleasure) and Moksha (liberation).

 

The essence of the concept indicated by Shri Chakra is only that you should come out of the influence of the Chakra (vicious circle) of Shri (money). Shri Chakram is considered to be the root of this world because the influence money is the root of all the family bonds. Without understanding the concept, ignorant people have started worshipping the Shri Chakra!
