Yantra for the transmigration into other bodies

November 1, 2026

Beginning with one situation, not with a general wish

Transmigration into other bodies is among the most startling purposes in this series, and it deserves to be stated without softening or sensationalising. The traditional claim, as the source gives it, is that a practitioner may pass from one body into another. Whether a reader takes that literally, symbolically, or as a distant esoteric possibility, the article must describe the stated purpose as it stands, and the work must be approached with the same specificity and record-keeping as any other purpose, rather than with vague wonder.

What this yantra is for

The stated purpose of this yantra is the transmigration into other bodies. The source describes it as one of the numbered yantras, requiring you, the person who uses it, to perform mantra recitation and puja to empower it for this purpose. Transmigration here means passing into another body, as a traditional esoteric purpose, and the source gives no further detail about method, conditions, or stages, so none is invented here. Your recitation and puja are the part the source asks of you, done within the practice and under the guidance you already follow, if you follow such a practice at all. No specific mantra, wording, or ritual instruction is given in this article, because none is given in the source, and inventing one would be dishonest.

What a yantra is, in brief

The source explains the word yantra as machine, apparatus, or device, and adds a second image: something that fastens, or is fastened, such as a concept or a specific energy pattern. The body itself is a yantra in this account, and a yantra drawn, written, or sculpted is often the mystical body of a divinity. Numbers, syllables, and words from various formulas, carrying specific energies, are commonly held within the pattern. The practical point is simple. The yantra is a formed thing for a formed purpose, and the clearer the purpose, the clearer the work that empowers it.

Being specific about this purpose

Specificity for a purpose this vast means saying what you actually mean by it, and what you would count as evidence, before you begin.

A vague aim sounds like this: I want to leave my body. A specific aim asks what you mean: a disciplined esoteric practice you already study, or a general fascination with the idea, since those are different starting points.

A vague aim sounds like this: I want to experience other bodies. A specific aim names the tradition and teaching you follow, if any, because a purpose of this kind cannot be worked from a single article alone.

A vague aim sounds like this: I want to transcend the body. A specific aim separates transcendence in contemplation from literal passage into another body, and says which one you are actually seeking.

A vague aim sounds like this: I want powers. A specific aim admits that a single stated purpose, however striking, is not a programme of practice, and that a teacher and a system are needed before any such claim can be approached seriously.

Read the four examples above against your own situation and keep the one that fits most closely. A purpose stated in that form can be remembered, returned to, and tested. A purpose stated only as a feeling cannot.

Your part: recitation and puja

What the source asks of you is stated without ambiguity: you, the person who uses this yantra, perform mantra recitation and puja to empower it. That is not a detail to be skipped over in favour of the object itself. It means the working is participatory, carried out in the form your own tradition gives it, and this article does not invent a mantra, a sequence, or ritual words to fill the gap, because the source gives none. Bring the practice you already have, hold the stated purpose in mind while you perform it, and let the empowerment be the work you actually do, not a description of work you intend to do one day.

The ordinary work alongside it

The ordinary work alongside a purpose like this is study, discipline, and honesty about your level. If you follow an esoteric tradition, work within it, under a teacher you trust, and do not treat a general article as instruction. If you do not follow such a tradition, the honest ordinary work is to study and to practise the foundations first, rather than reaching for the most dramatic purpose in the series. The yantra work, with its recitation and puja, belongs inside a real practice, not as a shortcut around one, and any claim of a result should be tested against your own careful record rather than asserted.

Keeping a record, and observing what changes

A record for this purpose must be more, not less, disciplined than for an ordinary one, because extraordinary claims invite self-deception.

Note the practice you are actually following, its tradition, and your teacher or source of instruction, if any, before you record any experience.

Note the working, its stated purpose in one sentence, and the recitation and puja you performed, in general terms, without inventing wording here.

Note any experience in plain language, on the day it happened, separating what you observed from what you interpreted it to mean.

Note, over time, whether experiences repeat, deepen, or fade, and whether they change your ordinary conduct, since a practice that leaves conduct unchanged has shown you little.

Review the record after a month, not after a single day, and ask what it actually shows. A record kept in this way protects you from two opposite errors: claiming a result that never happened, and missing a slow change because you expected a sudden one.

Questions to sit with before you begin

Ask yourself, with unusual honesty, what tradition and teaching you stand in, because a purpose of this magnitude cannot be approached from a general article, a single yantra, and a wish. If you have a teacher and a system, the questions belong there, in that lineage, with its own stages, cautions, and prerequisites, and this article is at most a companion to that work, not a substitute for it. If you have no such teacher or system, ask what foundations you have actually laid, and whether the honest next step is study and practice at a far earlier stage. And ask what you would do with such a capacity if it were granted, since a power without a purpose is a burden, and a purpose without preparation is a risk. Those questions are not meant to discourage inquiry; they are meant to place it where it can be pursued safely and seriously.

No promise, and how to read a quiet result

No result is guaranteed by this work, and that must be said plainly rather than softened into a promise. A yantra is a traditional instrument for a stated purpose, empowered by your own recitation and puja, and what follows from it is yours to observe, not the writer's to guarantee. That statement is about magical result, not about delivery of a physical item. If a working shows nothing, that is not a failure of honesty to admit. It is the beginning of a better question: whether the purpose was specific enough, whether the ordinary work alongside it was done, or whether a different approach is needed.

If nothing of the kind occurs, that is itself a result worth recording, and it may mean the purpose belongs to a later stage of practice, a different tradition, or a reading of the source that your own study does not support.

Size and material: Copper Yantras are about 1 inch by 1 inch by 2 millimetres, and hand-drawn Yantras are around 2 inches by 2 inches. These sizes are approximate, because Yantras come in different shapes.
