#8 Correspondence between the 3-d Sri Yantra and the seven Trees of Life mapping the seven planes of consciousness

There are 260 (=26×10) vertices, edges, triangles & tetrahedra in seven overlapping Trees of Life. This is the number of vertices, edges & triangles in the 3-dimensional Sri Yantra. YAHWEH, the Godname of Chokmah with number value 26, prescribes their geometrical composition. The 43 SLs up to Chesed of the seventh Tree correspond to the 43 triangles (notice that analogous sets of SLs & triangles have the same colours). The central triangle corresponds to Chesed of the seventh Tree, which itself expresses this Sephirah, thus marking the commencement of the formative levels of the Divine Life. The Supernal Triad & Daath of the seventh Tree corresponds to the bindu at the centre of the Sri Yantra. They are the source of this sevenfold Life, each triangle corresponding to an SL. This enables the Gods and Goddesses assigned by Hindus to the triangles of the Sri Yantra to be correlated with the Kabbalistic meaning of each SL.
