How to use Yantra?

Step 1: Initial Cleansing (Shuddhi)

Rinse the Yantra gently under clean water (Gangajal or river water preferred). Pat dry with a clean cotton cloth. Do not use soap, chemicals, or abrasive materials.

Step 2: Choosing the Right Time (Muhurta)

•        Kuber & Lakshmi Yantras: Friday (Shukravara) or Diwali

•        Bhairav Yantras: Sunday (Ravivara) or Bhairav Ashtami

•        Nav Graha Yantras: The specific weekday of each planet (Sun=Sunday, Moon=Monday, etc.)

•        Any Yantra: Shukla Paksha (waxing moon fortnight) is universally auspicious.

Step 3: Activation (Prana Pratishtha)

Place the Yantra on a clean red or yellow cloth on your altar. Light a pure ghee lamp (diya) and sandalwood or camphor incense. Sit facing East (facing North for wealth Yantras). Offer fresh flowers and water to the Yantra. Chant the specific Mul Mantra of the Yantra 108 times while keeping your gaze fixed softly on the central Bindu.

Step 4: Placement (Sthapana)

•        Kuber Yantra: North direction, at eye level or higher. Inside or near your safe or cash area.

•        Shri Yantra: East-facing wall of puja room or home office.

•        Nav Graha Yantras: Each planet's assigned Vastu direction.

•        Protection Yantras (Bhairav, Kali): Main entrance, facing the door.

•        Desk Yantras (Karya Siddhi, Vyapar Vridhi): On your work desk, facing East.

Step 5: Daily Practice (Nitya Puja)

Daily practice takes as little as 5 minutes. Offer a fresh flower or water. Light incense. Chant the Mul Mantra 11 or 108 times. Even brief, consistent daily practice sustains the Yantra's resonance more effectively than infrequent intensive worship.

Trataka Meditation with a Yantra

Trataka is the Yogic practice of fixed-gaze meditation. Seat yourself 1.5–2 feet from the Yantra. Gaze softly at the central Bindu without blinking for as long as comfortable. Begin with 1–2 minutes and increase gradually over weeks. aDvaar Yantras are specifically designed with precision geometry for optimal Trataka practice.

Care & Maintenance

Copper develops a natural green-brown patina over time (oxidation). This is normal and does not diminish the Yantra's energetic properties. Wipe gently with a dry cloth monthly. Occasional light polish with a soft cloth and diluted lemon juice restores copper's natural brightness.
