Why do the energized Yantras from indiayogi sometimes appear smudged?
The Yantras may have what appear to be ‘smears’ or ‘smudges’ on them. These are deliberately placed on the appropriate spot as part of the Yantra energizing ritual. They usually consist of vermillion or sandalwood paste and are applied by the priest as the culmination of the energizing process. Washing them off or wiping them away is thus not beneficial.
