Shri Chakra (Shri Yantra)
Tripur Sundari is the third among
Mahavidyas. She is also called Shri Vidya. According to " Sanskrit Kaustub Dictionary " the meaning of "Shri" is wealth, property given by the Govt., fame, higher position,
beauty, glamour, and goddess of wealth "LAKSHMr etc. Nobody on earth would ever like himself not to be blessed by goddess and it is only a few lucky people who know to invoke
the goddess blessings. We can also say that Shri Chakra means the 'Wheel of the Mother Goddess' but actually, it represents the symbolic energy form of the Goddess.
From time immemorial, our holy saints have done a lot of research work on it and found ways and means to welcome Shri to the homes of her disciples. The sages transferred this art
to their disciples which was stored in our old classics in the form of Yantra, Tantra, and Mantra.
