Hexagram

It is used in historical, religious, and cultural contexts, for example in Jewish identity, Hinduism, and Occultism.
In mathematics, the root system for the simple Lie group G2 is in the form of a hexagram.
The hexagram is a mandala symbol called satkona yantra or sadkona yantra found on ancient South Indian Hindu temples. It symbolizes the nara-narayana, or perfect meditative state of balance achieved between Man and God, and if maintained, results in "moksha," or "nirvana" (release from the bounds of the earthly world and its material trappings).
