My
vision for these stickers as well as our other products,
art and artists you see on our site,is to provide
beautiful, progressive, positive, and visionary artwork
in products that are affordable to most of us.
In this
way, we hope to help the artists we work with
become more well known,spread beautiful artwork throughout the world,
and perhaps play a small role in raising the consciousness of the
planet.
The folks
who we get these stickers from-are certainly doing that.
Most
of our Stickers are Yantra's or Mandalas
Here
is an explanation of Yantras.

What
is a Yantra?
Literally "Loom" or later, meaning "Instrument"
or even "Machine".
In actual
practice a Yantra is a symbolic representation of aspects of divinity,
usually the Mother Goddess.
It is an interlocking matrix of geometric figures, typically circles,
triangles and floral patterns that form fractal patterns of great
elegance and beauty.
Though drawn in two dimensions, a Yantra is supposed to represent
a three dimensional object.
Three-dimensional Yantras are now becoming increasingly common.
The Yantra
is primarily a meditation tool both for serious spiritual seekers
as well as sculptors in the classical tradition.
Before creating their artifact in wood, stone or metal, they draw
up a Yantra
that represents the attributes of the god they wish to sculpt.
Intense meditation
upon it causes the fully formed image to leap into the mind's eye
with an intensity that is remarkable for its imprinting ability,
for then they do not need to use a sketch till the completion of the
image.
Yantras are also used for more mundane purposes,
to enhance the quality of life, to attract prosperity and abundance,
even love,
to heal and relieve health problems, to protect oneself from negative
forces and so on.
