Shape
There are thirteen psychic centres (Chaitanya kendra) in the body where consciousness is intense. Until the higher awareness is awakened, all psychic centres have inauspicious shapes like that of the chameleon. when the centres are awakened by meditation, our inner consciousness gets purified and the inauspicious shape or pattern gets changed and becomes auspicious. (page 79)
According to jain acharya, there are many more auspicious shapes formed in the body in addition to kamal and chakras. they are as follow:
Swastik: Signifies peace and well being
Nandyavark: indicates nine types of material, mental , physical and spiritual wealth and treasure
Kalash: Signifies wisdom and fullness (page 79)
