The Sri Devi Yantra
A yantra is a Vedic geometric design or mystical diagram inscribed on paper, etched in metal, or fashioned three dimensionally. Yantras are often associated with a particular deity (law of nature) and used to enhance meditation; protect from harmful influences; develop particular powers; attract wealth or success, etc.
The Shri Yantra is called the mother of all yantras because all other yantras derive from it. It represents the cosmos at the macrocosmic level and the human body at the microcosmic. This yantra’s nine interlocking triangles centered around the bindu (central point) consists of five downward pointing triangles, representing Shakti (cosmic female principle) and four upright triangles, representing Shiva (cosmic male principle). The nine interlocking triangles form forty-three small triangles each housing a presiding deity associated with particular aspects of existence.
The Shri Yantra is a tool to give a vision of the totality of existence. Contemplating the Shri Yantra helps us rediscover and experience our divine source.
Now you can wear the Sri Devi Yantra daily! (comes with a 15inch mango orange cotton thread).
Happy Navaratri!

Yakrit, the Sanskrit term for the ‘liver,’ literally means ‘where every process happens.’ The liver – the largest organ in our bodies – carries out hundreds of actions, primarily detoxifying and creating new blood; filtering out toxins/chemicals; building immunity. But did you know that it also has an amazing capacity to regenerate itself? Without the liver we wouldn’t be able to transform food into energy, by breaking down fats and proteins. Here are some of the liver’s most vital functions:
Produces fresh blood AND cleans toxins out of the blood: the many cells of the liver, known as hepatocytes, accept and filter this blood. They act as little sorting centers, determining which nutrients should be processed, what should be stored, what should be eliminated via the stool, what should go back to the blood; it also gets rid of old red blood cells; the liver thus regulates/maintains healthy amount of blood in the body;
Produces bile, a fluid that helps the body digest (break down) fat: the liver stores fat-soluble vitamins as well as minerals such as copper and iron, releasing them when the body needs them. It also helps to break down fats in a person’s diet: it either metabolizes fats or releases them as energy. The liver produces an estimated 800 to 1000 ml of bile each day. This bile flows into the small intestine where the fat gets broken down and absorbed – extra bile is stored in the gallbladder.
As if these functions weren’t enough, the liver also plays a major role in the following:
Metabolizes proteins and carbohydrates so they turn into energy and your body can use them;
Creates immune system factors that help fight against infection;
Create proteins responsible for blood clotting – otherwise we would bleed to death!
Breaks down old and damaged red blood cell;
Balances energy metabolism by converting glycogen to glucose and storing extra glucose by converting it to glycogen. Glycogen is a form of glucose that your body stores mainly in your liver and muscles. Your body needs carbohydrates from the food you eat to form glucose and glycogen.
Makes toxins less harmful to the body and removes them/detoxifies the bloodstream
So you can see how and when, for any reason, the “intelligence” of the liver gets compromised, different kinds of dis-ease may emerge. A compromised liver can mean compromised health on many levels…
In Shaka Vanshiya Ayurveda, we pay special attention to making sure the liver does not get “cranky” – as Vaidya Mishra would jokingly explain. Having taken the pulse of thousands of people who had “cranky hot livers,” he put together a gentle yet effective protocol to help cool things off and optimize its functions.
Learn How to Care for the Liver – from the SV Ayurveda Perspective
In this online course you will find 12 ½ hours of in-depth SV Ayurveda knowledge on how to care for the liver. Taught live at Arsha Vidya Gurukulam (Saylorsburg, PA), Vaidya Mishra takes us on a journey inside the yakrit (liver) – the body’s dynamic powerhouse. Teaching from the ancient sutras & the perspective of medical science, he elaborates the functions of the liver and all the etiological factors impacting it. These factors include diet and digestion; AS WELL AS emotions; PLUS environmental toxins; EMFs; and synthetic ingredients in most personal-care products. Vaidya Mishra also teaches us how to keep the liver healthy and manage its disorders through food, herbs, marma therapy, detoxification, rejuvenation procedures, and vibrational medicine, including the use of mantras (primordial sounds with specific known effects).
