Sun Yantra / Surya Yantra
Sun yantra or Surya yantra may be used to increase strength of Sun and gain benefits from it. Hence Sun yantra may be used when Sun is duly benefic and it may also be used for partly benefic and partly malefic Sun in many cases. However, Sun yantra is generally not used for highly malefic Sun. An exception to this rule may be in case when Sun is a converted malefic in a horoscope. This concept has been discussed in the article ‘How do yantras Work’.
In general, Sun yantra seems to do the same job that Ruby may do. Though the broader results provided by Sun yantra and Ruby may be similar; there are differences. These differences have been discussed in the article ‘How do yantras Work’.
As Sun gains extra strength through Surya yantra; the native may witness better results related to general as well as specific significances of Sun; provided Sun is duly or partly benefic in his horoscope or it is a converted malefic. Taking an example, suppose benefic Sun is placed in the first house of a horoscope in Scorpio along with malefic Ketu.
Sun rules the tenth house in this horoscope, it is benefic and it is afflicted by Ketu. Hence it may not do its job well. In this case, Sun yantra may help the native achieve better results by supplying more energy to Sun. As the native establishes Sun yantra and he starts attending to it regularly; he may witness better and better results. In the present case; the native may witness better results related to profession, father, health, confidence, immunity, reputation, authority and overall wellbeing among other things.
Though Surya yantra may produce similar or better results than Ruby; the latter is still much more preferred by most astrologer. This is because of the reason that a native wearing Ruby doesn’t need to do anything in order to get such benefits through it; apart from wearing it. On the other hand, a native using Sun yantra may need to pray to it on daily basis in order to benefit from it.
To have an idea; in order to witness similar benefits as those given by a 5 carat Ruby of good quality, the native may need to chant about 1500 to 2000 Veda mantras or Beej mantras of Sun on daily basis. Since the process is time consuming; most natives may choose to go with Ruby instead of Sun yantra. However, if a native is not able to afford Ruby; Surya yantra may do the job in such case, though it may require effort from native’s end.
In order for Sun yantra to render proper benefits to a native; it should first be purified, energized and programmed for the native through Vedic procedures. Looking at the process; Surya yantra is purified in the first step. Through Vedic procedures; any type of negative energy attached to this yantra is removed during this step. Since many people may have left their energy/aura imprints on Sun yantra before you buy it; these imprints need to be removed.
In the second step; this yantra is energized and programmed for you. For this; your as well as your father’s name may be used. Hence the yantra is prepared and energized specifically for you; with the chant of Sun mantras. In general; 11,000 Veda mantras or Beej mantras of Sun are used to energize this yantra and they are more than sufficient to energize it. If the number of mantras is reduced a lot; the process of energization may not be carried out properly and the native may not benefit from Surya yantra in the best possible way.
Once you receive your purified, energized and programmed Sun yantra; the next step is to establish it in your house, office, wallet or pocket; depending on the size of Sun yantra you have chosen. The most commonly used size of this yantra is fit for establishing it in your house or office. For best results, you should establish Sun yantra on a Sunday and you should establish it in the place of worship in your house or office; in case you have chosen a bigger size. If you’ve chosen a smaller size, you can keep it in your pocket or wallet.
During the time your Sun yantra reaches you and you establish it; you can keep it at any clean place, like in a cupboard. After taking bath on a Sunday morning (7 AM to 11 AM), take your yantra and go the place you want to establish it. Place the yantra there, sprinkle some holy water or unboiled milk on your Surya yantra, chant 108 Beej mantras of Sun, pray to Sun and ask for the best possible results. Your Sun yantra has been established. In case you need to keep it in your pocket; place it somewhere clean after taking bath; complete the aforementioned steps and then put it in your pocket.
In order to receive sufficient energy through this yantra, you need to attend to it on daily basis. Every day after taking bath or preparing yourself for the day, go to the place where your Sun yantra has been placed. Focus on it, chant 108 or more mantras of Sun and then request your specific wishes from this yantra. In case you are carrying this yantra in your pocket, simply hold it in your hands after bath, focus on it, chant 108 or more mantras of Sun and request your wishes from this yantra. Attending to your Sun yantra on regular basis establishes proper connection between you and the yantra; which helps you get optimum benefits through it.
