Term: yantra
| DEFINITIONS |
yantra: From the ancient Sanskrit, it literally means “machine,” specifically a machine or instrument that restrains. In use, yantras are generally diagrams that Tantrics use in specific ways to restrain unwanted aspects of their own minds. In India, the best known yantra is the Sri Yantra. The term may also refer to amulets, hand postures, and even devices used in alchemy. In some traditions, yantras are used to control evil entities or the physical world.
