約尼

約尼和林伽圖示有圓形和方形兩種基本形式。約尼是神聖女性生殖能量的象徵。

約尼（梵語：योनि，IAST：yoni；又稱瑜尼、優尼、尤尼），是印度教女神夏克提的抽象或非偶像崇拜代表。^[1]^[2] 它通常被與林伽一起展示^[1]^[3]，它們一起象徵着微觀宇宙和宏觀宇宙的融合^[3]，創造和再生的神聖永恆過程，以及重建全部存在的女性和男性的結合。^[2]^[4] 約尼被概念化為自然中全部誕生的門戶，特別是在Kaula和Tantra實踐中，以及印度教的沙克提派和濕婆教傳統中。^[5]

約尼是一個梵語單詞，字面意思是「子宮」^[4]^[6]，「源頭」^[7]，以及女性的生殖器官^[8]^[9]。它也意味着女性性器官，例如「陰道」^[2]，「女陰」^[10]^[11]，和「子宮」^[12]^[13]，或在其他脈絡下任何事物的「起源，居所或來源」。^[14]^[2] 例如，吠檀多文本《梵天經》（Brahma Sutras）將形而上學概念「梵」比喻為「宇宙的約尼」。^[15] 在印度次大陸和東南亞的濕婆神殿和考古遺址^[16]^[17]^[18]以及 Lajja Gauri ^[19]等雕塑中，都發現有約尼與林伽的圖像。
