Of course, those who want to make use of it for spiritual processes can always do that. That is always the basic element. The idea is to create assistance for people in whatever they want to do. So the Avighna is for a variety of things. There is a basic spiritual element but if you don’t care about spirituality and you just want to make money, the yantra will lubricate your engine. Where you want to drive your car is up to you.
Question: Traditional yantras often have the symbol of a bindu as the central point. However, on the Linga Bhairavi Yantra, there is a linga in the center, which gives the yantra a unique characteristic. Why did you design it that way?
Sadhguru: A Linga Bhairavi Yantra is not in any way symbolic – it is a purely geometric pattern. A yantra is a machine – it has to work, function and deliver something. Every machine is essentially only an enhancement of a faculty that we already possess. We can walk, but with a bicycle we can move much faster. We can speak, but with a phone we can talk much further. The Linga Bhairavi Yantra is existentially functional. It fulfills specific purposes and delivers a certain activity or competence.
This yantra is a complex arrangement of forms. The copper plate is just the foundation. A bindu is a symbolic representation of the original form, which we know as ellipsoid or linga. When you see a bindu in a larger arrangement, and it is shown as a simple dot, it is just an unarticulated ellipsoid or linga. To put it the other way around, the linga is a more articulated expression of the bindu. With the Linga Bhairavi Yantra, it is very articulated.
The Linga Bhairavi Yantra functions the way it does mainly because of the shape of the linga and the nature of the material. Most of the “software” of energy is written in the linga. The remaining parts of the yantra are more like foundation, which also has a certain amount of software, but only software of stability. If you create enormous power from any substance or any form, it will dissipate itself unless you create a proper foundation of stability. If that stable atmosphere is there, it can reverberate in a big way. It can energize homes and people in a phenomenal way and still not dissipate over a period of time. If you pass down your Bhairavi Yantra five, six, or ten generations, it will still live.
Expressions
Various individuals who have received Bhairavi Yantras at their homes or workplaces have expressed their experiences of how their lives have been transformed:
Kalpana Maniar, Head Business Solutions & IT, Edelweiss Capital Ltd., narrates her experience of having the Linga Bhairavi Yantra at home: “Devi’s arrival to our home has been a huge experience. Our day starts with her and ends with her. Her vibrant presence fills the house. Things fall in place beautifully even during tough situations. There is an invaluable sense of calm and happiness that she has brought with her. Even outsiders who visit our home can’t miss her presence. I can only bow down to Devi and Sadhguru, feeling eternally obliged for gracing my home and family. We feel truly blessed for having the privilege of being in the same space with her.”
Vipulroy Rathod, an Endoscopy surgeon, has an Avighna Yantra consecrated in his clinic, Endoscopy Asia in Mumbai. He speaks of the profound influence the yantra has in his workplace. “Since Sadhguru blessed us with the Linga Bhairavi Avighna Yantra, unbelievable things have happened in our life. I’m a surgeon. The moment the patients arrive at our unit, they are experiencing a tremendous sense of peace and serenity. I’ve begun to understand what Sadhguru always says about the importance of living and working in a consecrated space.”
His wife Purnima reflects on how the yantra has changed their lives. “Since we got the Yantra, we have experienced tremendous wellbeing on all levels: our physical health, emotional stability, spiritual growth as well as material growth.”
