Publisher's Synopsis
A Sri Yantra designed with accuracy and precision is precious, beautiful and highly benevolent. To begin drawing, use a 2D drafting engineering software e.g. AutoCAD, BricsCAD, nanoCAD, LibreCAD etc.
- Set the Dimensions precision to four decimal places, e.g., 0.0000
- With each Line, Angle, or Circle drawn, take the Dimension and see if it matches exactly.
- Even a slight error shall make the Sri Yantra lose its Beauty and Preciousness.
- 1 Square ABCD, side 200.
- 2 Bisect Square at J,
- make right angle Triangle JCD with hypotenuse JC = 223.6068, Angle CJD = 63.4349°
- 3 Draw Black Circle with center at J, radius = hypotenuse JC = 223.6068
- 4 Extend Square ABCD to a Rectangle ABEF, where longer side AF = BE = 323.6068
- 5 Draw Green Circle with center at A, radius = 323.6068
- 6 Extend side of Square DC to touch Green Circle at upper point g. The length Dg = 254.4039
- For exactness,
- Extend side of Square CD to touch Green Circle at lower point. This length = 254.4039
- These both lengths must be Equal. This is just to check if we are going right so far.
- If both these lengths are Equal, we have found the Apex g for our Triangle T1u.
- 7 Now join A to g, and we get the Side Ag of our Golden Ratio Triangle T1u.
- Note that Side Ag = radius of Green Circle = 323.6068
- 8 Copy and Mirror the Side Ag to get the Side gi of Golden Ratio Triangle Triangle.
- 9 Join points A to i to get Base Ai of Golden Ratio Triangle T1u
Golden Ratio Triangle T1u Largest Upwards Apex Triangle is starting Point for Sri Yantra.
- Dimensions for Golden Ratio Triangle T1u = Agi must be precisely
- Baseline length = 400
- Isosceles Side Length each = 323.6068
- Isosceles Angle each = 51.82729°
