abstract
Sri Chakra, also known as Sri Yantra is the most profound geometric symbolism in Hindu philosophy and spiritual practices. The inner part of the Chakra is made up of 43 triangles arranged in five concentric rings, all arising from nine intermeshing isosceles triangles inside a circle. This paper reviews previous models of Sri Chakra’s geometry and proposes a new and simpler model for understanding its geometry. It also presents a simpler method for constructing a valid Sri Chakra. A novel method for naming the various lines and triangles in the Sri Chakra is also presented for ease of understanding its geometry. A proof of the validity of the constructed Sri Chakra is included.
