In this lesson, we'll be learning the Sanskrit and Yantra chakra meanings. What's a Yantra? Well, it's a geometric design. It's considered a machine. And then again in Sanskrit it could mean a contraption. It's support.

It's actually a tool for focusing. It's also used for tantric worship. And in meditation, the Sri Yantra, which you may have heard of before, means cosmos and physical, so spiritual and physical.
