Indian Sri Yantra or Hindu Tantric Symbol

A small clear mountain, stepped and pointed, with its summit right in the middle.

This Sri Yantra, or Hindu tantric symbol, comes from India and is contemporary, carved in crystal. The Sri Yantra is generally understood as a diagram of interlocking triangles representing the cosmos and the goddess, and three-dimensional versions like this one, known as Meru forms, are used as aids to meditation and worship. It rises in tiers from a stepped square base through rings of petals to layers of angular facets and a small point at the top. The stone is clear, with some cloudy inclusions near the base. It is 2.75 inches wide, 2.75 deep and 2 high.

Geometry, taken entirely seriously.
