The concept of geophilosophy, or to be more precise geo-metaphisics, is an enduring bond between the philosophical thought and its terrestial support. Essentially the geo-graphical positioning of a country influences its thinking and thus impacts its philosophy. Sri-yantra, a mythical instrument, strikes a balance between the gross subtle and causal dimensions of the microcosmic and macrocosmic phenomena. It syncs with the esoteric ontology of the cosmos, the individual body, the state, the nation in its geographic aspect, all creative and conducive societal values, and the grand unification of existing dogmas, doctrines, creeds and commitments. The author talks about his speculation of a triangular semblance of the Indian sub-continent and his intuitive experiences of ancient axioms of Eastern metaphysics.
