The Parad (Mercury) Meru Kachap Shri Yantra weighing 262 gm is a three-dimensional Sri Yantra rendered in solidified Parad (mercury) and set upon a Kachap (tortoise) base, making it one of the most materially significant Yantra forms available in the Vedic tradition. Parad is described in Ras Shastra texts as a sacred and purified substance, and combining it with the geometry of the Meru Sri Yantra creates an object that is traditionally considered to carry exceptional spiritual potency. This Yantra is placed in the home pooja room or meditation space and treated as a devotional object requiring regular worship (puja).
This Yantra carries a dual sacred significance: Parad (solidified mercury) is traditionally associated with Lord Shiva and with the planet Mercury (Budha) in the Vedic tradition, while the Sri Yantra itself is the sacred geometric form of the goddess Tripura Sundari and is connected with Venus (Shukra) in classical Yantra lore. The combination is thus believed to harmonise the energies of both planets. Practitioners engage with this Yantra through devoted puja rather than as a passive object, and those seeking planetary remedies should consult a qualified Jyotishi to confirm suitability.
