The SJC Logo comprises an eight petal lotus yantra of crimson red (satva guna) petals in the eight karmic directions with each petal being an offering made of pure devotion (bhakti – devotional ecstatic love) to the digpala (deities of the directions), so that we may be released on the karmic bondage. The deities are –
| Direction | Paper | Devatä | Sun/Soul |
| East | Top/Up | Indra | Sürya |
| South-East | Top Right | Agni | Ravi |
| South | Right | Yama | Vivasvan |
| South-West | Bottom Right | Raksasa | Bhaga |
| West | Bottom/Down | Varuna | Varuna |
| North-West | Bottom Left | Mitra | Mitra |
| North | Left | Kubera | Äditya |
| North-East | Top Left | Siva | Vishnu |
This is the inner pedestal of the inner heart chakra (anahata chakra) while the outward is the twelve petal lotus comprising the twelve sun signs.
Sri Jagannath, the lord of the Universe is the paramatma in the center witnessing all the little games and frolic (lila) going on with each of the creation. May we have His sight to witness all the events of the universe as they unfold.
