Sri Yantra

Sri Yantra Ramaya
Sri Yantra…

Her name shows her beauty and her Eastern origins. Her appearance calls your attention. What is hidden in all her layers? And what does she stand for?

A Yantra is a sacred geometric shape. A symbolic instrument made up of different layers. You can peel het off like an onion and discover the key wisdom that is hidden in it. In which the mantra provides an auditory path to spiritual growth. Is it the Yantra that makes this possible for us in a visual way.
The Sri Yantra is one of the most famous Yantras. Her literal meaning is ’the instrument for wealth’. In material and spiritual form. Because wisdom is a great source of wealth.
But how do we gain wisdom? By reading books? By getting a diploma that states you know the truth? Or by peeling ourselves off like an onion, in order to discover what is hidden in the core?
The Sri Yantra encourages the latter. She is like a route map that shows us the way to our center. Where our wisdom can be found. On the ‘map’ the destination is marked as the dot in the middle, the Bindu. We find many forms outside that each add something beautiful to the route. After all, it’s not just about the final destination.
Prominent in the Sri Yantra is the special interplay of triangles. A triangle is a perfect shape. Everything that consists of three mirrors a completeness. Just think of the trinity that you see in many philosophies of life.
In the Sri Yantra, the triangles form a balanced dance between the masculine and the feminine. Four triangles directed upwards, representing the masculine. And five triangles directed upwards, which represent the feminine. Indeed, one more female triangle. Which is certainly a deliberate wink from the Goddess, with whom the Sri Yantra is strongly connected.
In this way there is wisdom to be discovered in every layer of the Sri Yantra. Just like in you. What do you discover when you peel off your layers? What own wisdom is hidden in your core?

Seed of Life

Seed of Life

You’ve probably heard about the “Big Bang”. Can you imagine that there was nothing at all? And now there are animals, people, iphones and convenient rental bicycle! Just as amazing is to remember that you yourself have also emerged from nothing and that your body that you enjoy every day is made from one tiny cell. The seed of life describes the path from emptiness to form.

How do you get from nothing to something? Let us imagine “nothing” as an empty space. So no man, no animal, not even a soul and no consciousness. Complete emptiness. What is the first thing that can arise? No iPhone, we first needed Steve Jobs and he is not there yet. No, the first thing that can arise is a point. A very small “little thing”. The simplest form you can imagine.

Let’s look at the point with a magnifying glass. What do we see? A beautiful round shape, a circle. This is the middle circle of the Seed of Life. The circular shape has been seen as a symbol for unity for thousands of years. Perfectly round, no weird bulges or deviations, pure essence in shape.

How do we go from this unity to a form? We go to the top of the circle and from there we make exactly the same circle with a compass. Now we have two circles that form a kind of eye where they overlap. Thus we continue making circles until we have drawn six circles around the inner circle.

Then a beautiful flower shape is created. Literally from scratch. Because do you remember? We started with nothing, we put a point down, that became a circle, which started to multiply and made the first form. That first form could have been anything, an airplane, a ping pong table, a jar of peanut butter but no, it is just a beautiful flower with six leaves. Somewhere also logical because flowers were of course there before peanut butter jars. After all, a peanut comes from a flower.

That is the story of the Seed of Life. How consciousness in harmony with itself has made the first form, a flower shape. And this story reminds us that it is therefore quite possible to start something new from scratch. That is how you, the earth, and the whole universe is born from nothing. So also those ideas that you have, which you think may not be feasible. The Seed of Life can remind you that everything that people have ever made has begun as an idea, as a seed.

You too are able to make your idea a reality as thousands of people have already done before you. So what is your idea? Which seed are you going to bud?

We like to show who we are and what we stand for. This can be found on the ‘About Us‘ page. We think it is important that you know who you are dealing with and that it feels good to buy a product from us.

Blog

There are so many good things to tell about the symbols. We do not always have enough room for this on the product page. That is why we are working on a series of blogs about the symbols. We can go deeper into the meaning, effect, history and design.

We think it’s important that you know why you feel attracted to a certain symbol and that you can learn more about it in a fun way.

Themes

safety

connection

power

Our products are not only beautiful, they all have a meaning. Which symbol is right for you right now? To help you choose, we have added themes. Which theme now suits you? Have you had an impetuous period and are you looking for balance now? Or would you like to give a loved one some more luck? Explore the themes and see which symbols are included.

Did you know:

The themes are inspired by the first six chakras. These chakras lead to the seventh chakra, a state of enlightenment. Our six themes lead to our vision: living from the heart.

New products

Now that the new website is ready, we can again concentrate on designing new products. For example, we will soon be launching new symbol necklaces and making other types of jewelry in addition to necklaces.
