A pair of joined squares is analogous to the Sri Yantra. The 21 yods outside their shared side in the four tetractyses of each square correspond to the 21 triangles in each half of the Sri Yantra. That this is not mere coincidence is indicated by the fact that four classes of yods can be identified whose numbers are the numbers of triangles in the four layers of the Sri Yantra. This identification is unique in that no other choices of yods are possible that preserve the mirror symmetry of their distribution with respect to the root edge as mirror.

The four yods on the root edge are to be associated with the pair of joined triangles rather than with the pair of squares, for both types of joined polygons are members of the two sets of seven enfolded polygons of the inner Tree of Life.
