This sounds fascinating to me. I have, as an artist and musician,

loved this symbol, and it is even more meaningful to know how it came

about. Is Cymatics of the Sri Yantra a book? ~ Linda

Hello Linda,

I don't know if there is a book on the Cymatics of the Sri Yantra. The

text I wrote in the email you answered to was from this web page:

http://body-mind.com/1bmrSACRED.htm

from Dr Jeffrey Thompson.

He sells a Sri Yantra CD that I did not have a chance to listen to. An

extract may be found to listen to on the same web page.

Maybe Dr Jeffrey Thompson could answer to your question, if he has the

time, since he has been cc on this email.

Baron on the Sri Yantra list wrote in answer to the same email:

<< Seems as though the Panchadasi mantra which is more specific for

the Sri Yantra should be used instead of OM with the Tonoscope and

see the results. See chapter 'Sri Chakra and the mantra' in the book

Sri Chakra by S.Shankaranarayanan

baron >>

Quoting here the beginning of the chapter mentioned by Baron:

"When the Transcendent Brahman desires to manifest out of its own

volition, there is a throb, a stir which immediately starts a series

of vibrations. These takes the form of sound, Nada, which is the

precursor of the creation of object. Artha srsteh purvam sabda

srstih. The lines of rhythm that emerge out, proceed to form the

luminous patterns which are known as Chakras, while the Nada that is

received in audition of the seers is transmitted in the human tongue

as Mantras. The Mantra of a deity and its Chakras (more in the sense

of yantras than the normal North American descriptions of Chakras) is

to manifest the Deity which they enshrine. The Mantra is not a means

to contact the Deity; it is the Deity itself." ...

If you find something on the cymantics of the Sri Yantra, please do let me know Linda,

When one comes back to the original sound. One only knows ITself.

Enjoy the harmonics of the echo,

Antoine
