Though many practitioners of yoga and meditation are familiar with
the Sri Cakra yantra, few fully understand the depth of meaning in
this representation of the cosmos. Even fewer have been exposed to
the practices of mantra and puja (worship) associated with it.
Andre Padoux, with Roger Orphe-Jeanty, offers the first English
translation of the Yoginihrdaya, a seminal Hindu tantric text
dating back to the 10th or 11th century CE. The Yoginihrdaya
discloses to initiates the secret of the Heart of the Yogini, or
the supreme Reality: the divine plane where the Goddess
(Tripurasundari, or Consciousness itself) manifests her power and
glory. As Padoux demonstrates, the Yoginihrdaya is not a
philosophical treatise aimed at expounding particular metaphysical
tenets. It aims to show a way towards liberation, or, more
precisely, to a tantric form of liberation in this
life--jivanmukti, which grants both liberation from the fetters of
the world and domination over it.
