Sri Chakra On Top Of Shiva Linga Chintamani Shiva Anegundi English Telugu Hindi Post

In Hinduism, self-realisation encompasses several paths that include knowledge (Gnana), action (Karma), discipline (Raja), and surrender to God (Bhakthi). Tools such as mantras and yantras assist these paths, with the sacred chant OM producing the Sri Yantra. The concept that Shiva and Shakthi are inseparable is emphasised, with Shankaracharya having established Sri Yantra at MOOGAMBIKA temple. Shiva and Shakthi are akin to words and meanings, each powerless without the other. Shiva embodies the inert principle while Devi represents the life principle, together forming the world of names and forms. A temple in Anegundi, Karnataka, symbolises this unity with a Sri Chakra atop a Shiva Linga.
