<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><b><span style="font-family: "times new roman";"><span lang="EN-GB">[This is the Preface and Part I of <i>The Chronicles of the Inner Chamber; </i>readers of this series may first want to read the blog's <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/p/about.html">'Introduction'</a> and the Matrimandir Action Committee's <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/p/manifesto.html">'Manifesto'</a>]</span></span></b></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><b><span style="font-family: "times new roman";"><span lang="EN-GB"><br />
</span></span></b><span lang="EN-GB">Those readers of Matrimandir Action Committee communications who live in India or who have had contact with Indian culture are very much aware of the fact that, to quote the Mahamaya, <i>‘…If the measurement of the temple is in every way perfect, there is perfection in the universe as well.’</i>(XXII, 92.) It is unthinkable in India to establish a noble endeavour around a Symbol that is imperfect, flawed; or else distorted purposely or out of ignorance by impositions of the human ego. For these reasons all sacred art, sculpture and architecture were <i>anonymously </i> executed to lessen the prominence of the ego<i>. </i>In the place of honour there is, traditionally, the highest symbol of perfection, fashioned with meticulous care particularly in what concerns proportions and measurements. To stray from those ancient injunctions is unthinkable.</span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">Simply put, this perfect form then generates an atmosphere that UPLIFTS, or <i>allows for an uplifting</i> of the surrounding environment. The perfect form central to a town or any cherished endeavour in India is the MODEL TO EMULATE, to GROW INTO.</span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">In the Auroville Matrimandir we have just the contrary. We have a flawed, imperfect and deceptive form with no redeeming features. This is the focus not only of that community’s life but it has imposed itself and become the focus of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram as well, and has spread throughout the world via the numerous ‘centres’ connected to these establishments that have sprung up everywhere. All are part of a web woven from this central symbol-form. Most caught in this web are Indians. The confusion is so great that they reject their own millennia-old tradition in favour of the Auroville theory that the Matrimandir ‘cannot be perfect because we are not perfect’. The flaws and distortions, if indeed they are there, are justified on the basis of a sanction established in 1974 for the community by Satprem on various occasions but particularly in his letter to ‘D’, dated 12 September 1974. We will quote from this letter further on because it entered MAC archives on 5. 2. 2003, sent to us by Paulette in defence of the Auroville Matrimandir. </span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">There are a number of points that could be taken up for discussion in Satprem’s letter. MAC has officially replied to Paulette. If readers do not have that document in hand, it is available on our website </span> <u style="color: black;"> <a href="http://www.matacom.com/" style="font-weight: 700;"> <span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"></span></a></u><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><a href="http://www.matacom.com/"><b><u>www.matacom.com</u></b></a> or else we may be contacted at <b>matacom@msn.com</b>. Here we must only add that there can be no sanction from any quarter for what Satprem’s letter advocates. Logic alone is sufficient to expose the off-centred poise in these exhortations.</span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">Lamentably, this was the ‘vision’ that Auroville chose in 1974, in contrast to what we offered: the Divine Measure that the Mother herself handed to those very people who would go on to lead the community, but after having first dismantled her Vision.</span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">That was the year of a great turning point or crossroads of destiny. We had made the perfection of the Mother’s Vision known to the architects and to all those who took an interest in the temple in the spring and summer of 1974, pleading with them to execute that Vision (nothing had been built yet) because <i>it was PERFECTION. </i> Our files are replete with this documentation.</span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">The Matrimandir Talks had not been released by Satprem yet; that was to happen in 1975 after <i>The Gnostic Circle </i>was sent to press, the first publication in which this perfection was revealed, but without yet having the Mother’s own words on the significance of her Vision as recorded in those taped discussions. The executing architect released the Mother’s original plan to a select few in May of 1974, while <b><i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0877284113/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0877284113&linkCode=as2&tag=360lotus-20&linkId=e1617778b74fd831ba4f31c0e1182844" target="_blank">The Gnostic Circle</a></i></b> was in progress, on which basis the Matrimandir section of the book was written and published. Finally, when in the midst of the Urn controversy, he circulated the released transcripts sometime in late 1974-1975 (incomplete and strategically edited, we must add); they confirmed everything written in <i>The Gnostic Circle</i> regarding that Vision.</span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> This is the point. The Mother’s <i>words</i> were required only for the purpose of establishing beyond question what that <b>perfect form</b><i> </i>is since errors had entered the plan drawn up by Udar, the Ashram engineer. A person of knowledge sees just that plan and <i>knows </i>what it is, its perfection, its purpose, and the <i> laws</i> it embodies and utilises to fulfil a superior function. This is the way Knowledge has been preserved in India for thousands of years; not only in India but throughout the ancient world. Even the sacred <i>mantras</i> are treated in the same way, with that same reverence for perfection in every detail; indeed, in deference to Mahasaraswati, the reigning Goddess of our Age. The disciple is trained to chant the <i>riks </i><span lang="EN-GB">and mantras flawlessly. The Word in such instances is just another ‘temple’. One is the ‘sound’ from the human temple; the other is the Word of the constructed form. Both embody that supreme perfection, - the one more ephemerally, the other more lastingly. Hence the greater emphasis on strict adherence to the commands of the Rishis in sacred architecture and sculpture. And though the aspirant himself is not yet an embodiment of that perfection, he knows that in concentrating on that Vision he can become THAT. This is his yoga of Perfect Works.</span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">Consider the model Satprem offers: forget the form of perfection with its centimetres (and ‘astrology’, i.e., the ancient traditions) and project your aspiration into what you build, whose actual form is only secondarily relevant, if at all. When you reach ‘perfection’ the Matrimandir will be perfect – <b>spontaneously, </b>he states<b>.</b></span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">There are two major flaws in this concept which we would like to expose. One is described above and conforms to ancient traditions of all times: we start not by cementing our <i>flaws</i> but by reproducing as exactly as possible the Mother’s Vision in order that in the process <i>we grow into that perfection</i>.</span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> And second, Satprem’s exhortation does nothing but strengthen <b>the ego of the instrument</b>, a pitfall of yoga that Sri Aurobindo has detailed extensively in his writings on yoga. It can be succinctly conveyed as follows: It is not what you build but the consciousness of the builder; it is YOUR consciousness alone that matters, not the Mother’s Vision.</span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">In 1974, when offered the choice between the Mother’s Vision and Satprem’s, the builders of the Matrimandir chose the latter. This act of choosing had grave consequences as revealed in the document reproduced </span></span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> <span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> on page 4</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">. </span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> Apart from the building itself, the next decisive ‘choice’ after that 1974 turning point was when the community, in an entirely misguided movement led by the same people involved in the temple issue, opted for Government control of the project, and finally a complete take-over. Auroville now belongs to the Government of India, a development totally against the Mother’s will and known to all those who spearheaded the drive into Government’s arms. That Divine Will was emphatically spelled out in the two letters we reproduce here. No amount of sophistry will alter in any way the Mother’s express will in this crucial matter.</span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">This is a coherent process. The choice of the temple plays itself out almost immediately in vital areas of the project’s life, guided by the same choice made for the Inner Chamber and, incredibly, spearheaded by the very same people. All the way down the line decisions must be influenced by the central symbol, the focus of the community’s life. It cannot be otherwise because it is the Law.</span></span></h1>
<h1 align="justify" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 16pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> Let us see how this works because in the process it will reveal the greatness of the Mother and how faithful and true she was to <i>who she was</i>.</span></span></h1>

<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span>From 1966 to 1970 UNESCO passed three Resolutions on Auroville.

The Mother was asked whether She had approved this decision. This was asked in a letter and in the left-hand margin of the letter, the Mother replied, as follows, with reference to the word "decision": <i> </i>‒<br />

<div align="justify" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">The Mother was the executive power of the Supreme Lord. She was his own ‘executing architect’. The ancient Veda describe this magnificent power/principle as the Divine Maya. It is she who fashions material creation in the image of the Lord. She is the executor of his Will. <br />

It is, to be sure, a divine Maya, not human. The human maya is the ‘illusion’ of Advaita, a concept that has thoroughly conquered the yogic mind of India. <br />

Above all, it reveals her as the incarnation of the Vedic Divine Maya, the executor of the Transcendent’s Will. <br />

Why was precision so important? It was so that the Divine Measure she brought to Earth in early January of 1970, in an extraordinary yogic feat, could be transposed into our world of time and space and measure. In this act her purpose for incarnating was encapsulated; in that plan we have the condensation of everything that the Mother was – what she came down with and what she grew into once she was born on Earth. The entire trajectory of her yoga is captured first in her own symbol, which forms the overall basis of the Chamber’s plan, and then all the other elements of the design as given by her. We will cover them all, one by one, in these Chronicles.</span><br />

Her final gift to us was given during those eighteen days when she explained and defended her Vision before the non-believers (…’One is not going to say it. To begin with, they would not believe me’…). Nothing more would be needed. <br />

The very first demonstration of her action across time and space was in March, barely two months later. It took the form of inspiration for a symbolic story in which the Chamber itself was described in Chapter Ten of the book. This was done without any contact between the Mother and the writer who was many thousands of kilometres away. Apart from its architectural form, in the same chapter the function of the Inner Chamber was described and, most importantly, its connection with Time. This was the very first demonstration of the Mother’s action as the Supramental Shakti in the subtle planes ‘to sort out the people’. It transpired immediately after rejection of her Vision. But there was much more to follow. <br />

The greatness of the Mother was not the Vision itself but the subsequent ACT OF MEASURING. By this act she brought the Divine Maya into our world of time and space and imprinted it indelibly in the Earth-consciousness. It can now never be erased. She did this by way of a precision involving the measures of our contemporary world: metres and centimetres, backed up by a vast body of knowledge, the accumulation of thousands of years of inspired <i>drishti</i> by the ancient Rishis. Without that act of measuring <i><u>there is no descent</u></i> – no link is made, no imprinting. Therefore the Power preserved the record of those blessed eighteen days during which time the Mother imprinted her Vision on the Earth.<br />

He wrote, <i>‘In the vision from above there are no centimetres; there is only an inner perfection that fits itself spontaneously into certain measures.’</i> By this sophistry he has effectively eliminated the Mother as the Divine Executor of the Supreme’s Will, as the Divine Maya. And further, <i>‘It is this <b> inner perfection of the builders of Matrimandir that should be the exterior perfection of the temple </b></i>[emphasis ours]<i>. Not, then, a question of discussing centimetres or columns, but of working towards that unity of our consciousness. All the waverings between the Mother’s vision and the workers’ translation gives the exact measure of the ego’s interference.’</i><br />

For if we do indeed wish to discover ‘the exact measure of the ego’s interference’, it is only possible by holding that ‘translation’ <b>up to the Mother’s Vision.</b> That, and that alone, is the Divine Measure. Therefore, in these Chronicles we will analyse point by point what stands in the Auroville Matrimandir, measuring it up to the Divine Measure of the Mother’s plan. We will prove the truth of Satprem’s prophetic statement because the Divine Measure will give us the exact measure of the human ego that has been rendered in cement and steel in the Auroville Matrimandir. This imperfect form of the Measure of Man now serves as the focal point for aspiration of all the residents of Auroville, the Ashram, and the devotees of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo throughout the world, by their own <i>conscious</i> choice.<br />

<span lang="EN-GB"><b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: medium;"> </span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> <br />
</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small; font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB">In the January 1992 issue of <i> Auroville Today</i>, there is an interview featured prominently with the executing architect/engineer of the Auroville Matrimandir, Piero Cicionesi. It is an English translation of the original Italian published in the Ashram journal, <i>Domani. </i> PC makes the following statement:</span></span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"> </span><br />
</span></span></div>
<blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">‘When the Mother spoke to us about the project, she told us that the important thing was that the symbols and the sphere with the sun ray upon it should be in their right place…therefore, the immense effort of architects and engineers and workers to create the structure has been nothing but a preparation for the realisation of the room according to Mother’s vision. The existing structure has been made with the maximum respect for Mother’s vision, as transcribed by Udar, an Ashram engineer. His drawing still exists and it contains the measurements of the Chamber. The room today is as faithful to the original design as it can possibly be. Only one thing couldn’t be respected: the under-ground entrance with direct access to the room at ground level. In the final project, this particular aspect has been lost due to the room being 15 metres above ground level in the middle of the sphere….’ <br />
</span></span></div>
</blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">This sounds reasonable and honest. But let us analyse carefully this statement and contrast it with other statements, as well as with facts on the ground.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">In so doing, it will become clear that from the very beginning there was no <i>real</i> intention of following the Mother’s directives as given during the 18 days of her discussions with Satprem and Paolo. For it is to those discussions that PC refers, since there is no other record where the Mother makes mention of the sphere, the ray playing upon it, accurate measurements, and so forth. Before proceeding, note that in this same issue of <i>Auroville Today</i>, in the ‘Chronology of Mother’s Construction’, page 3, the dates go from 31.12.1969 (before the Mother had her Vision) to March 1970 with the presentation of Roger’s designs. Those precious, historical 18 days, when the Mother explained and defended her Vision and handed Satprem and Paolo her plan, are eliminated. They just do not exist for Auroville and its followers.<br />
It would therefore appear from this interview that the executing architect made every possible effort to create the Chamber of the Mother’s original vision, using Udar Pinto’s drawing as his guide. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="en-gb"> <span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span> <span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">In this Chronicle, we will take up just one aspect of PC’s statement for analysis to demonstrate that, 1) there was never any intention of following her directives with accuracy, professionalism and sincerity, and 2) there has been a deliberate campaign to convince the public – and perhaps the community of Aurovilleans themselves - that it was all ‘according to the Mother’s original plan’.<br />
Consider the statement in a Publisher’s Note of the German translation of <i>The Gnostic Circle</i> (Fischer Verlag, 1977, first edition 18,000 copies), by the same person. In <i>The Gnostic Circle</i> the author’s text on page 256 reads:<br />
<br />
</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">(Translated from the German): ‘It must be mentioned here that it is getting clearer and clearer that the measurements and the plan given by the Mother are not being followed accurately in the construction. All the arrangements and dimensions we speak of here are, however, taken from the original plan the Mother had drawn up by an Ashram engineer, and her recorded talks about her vision-experience of the Temple which already exists on the subtle plane and is influencing ours.’<br />
<br />
Below is the Publisher’s Note by the editor in charge of the edition for Fischer Verlag, Ms Crystal Falk, with a statement from the architect regarding this text: </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"><b>(Translated from the German) ‘During the last supervision of the manuscript before printing on 14.6.1977, the master builders of Matrimandir who are presently in Europe to get the marble for the Inner Chamber, have categorically stated that after some technical discussions the construction is now going to be done exactly according to the measurements and instructions of the original plan which the Mother had drawn up by the above-mentioned Ashram engineer [Udar Pinto]. For some time this appeared uncertain because of structural difficulties in building the outer supporting construction of Matrimandir, which required a spherical shape.’</b></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">When the book was released and this outrageous falsehood was discovered as a ‘Publisher’s Note’, without the author’s knowledge or consent, the publisher Fischer Verlag then agreed to make amends for the liberty taken by the person in charge, Crystal Falk, and print a corrigendum to be included in each copy.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><b><span lang="EN-GB">(8.4.1978) ‘It has come to my attention that the additional correcting Editor’s Note (page 256) referring to the Matrimandir construction in Auroville, is to be removed by Fischer Verlag. As the executing architect of the Matrimandir, I wish to repeat that said note absolutely conforms to truth and therefore has to remain in the book. In case Fischer Verlag really removes the Note, I should be obliged and forced to institute legal proceedings against the Verlag.’ (Signed) Piero Cicionesi</span></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">This transpired in the fall of 1977 and spring of 1978. But already by <u> 1975-76</u>, two years earlier, the construction had reached the point of no return. Two items in particular were fixed for all time and could no longer be changed, the two that the executing architect <i>knew</i> were in the original plan and would never find their way into the Chamber he was constructing in Auroville, even as he issued this statement. One was, of course, the entrance by way of a 15-step stairway, emerging into the room through an opening in the floor.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"></span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">This was given with great precision in the Mother’s original plan and further clarified in the 18-day discussions, when the disciple and the Italian architect, Paolo Tomasi, simply refused to take the Mother seriously about her desired entryway. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><b><span lang="EN-GB">What is significant to note is that at the very time the executing architect was issuing his statement to the Verlag while in Europe, his wife and fellow architect, Gloria, together with Matrimandir Workers, circulated an Open Letter in which they enumerate ALL THE CHANGES THAT WERE MADE compared to the Mother’s original! On the one hand he claims that NO CHANGES WERE MADE and the original is being followed in every detail since the ‘structural difficulties’ had been solved, while his wife and co-workers reveal just the contrary in their Open Letter. Which statement is true? We shall proceed to find out.</span></b><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="en-gb"> <span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span> <span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">PC knew at the time of issuing his threat of legal action to the Publisher, on Auroville stationary, that his statement was false. And fifteen years down the line (1992), he admits what he knowingly lied about then, - that the entry to the Chamber of the Mother’s original Vision could not be executed because of ‘structural difficulties’ – those very same ‘difficulties’ that had been ‘resolved’, according to his statement in the German <i>The Gnostic Circle.</i><br />
This is an example of the deliberate efforts made over the years to hide the truth, to convince the public that it is indeed the Mother’s Vision that stands in Auroville. These Chronicles, one after another, will finally expose the lies.</span></span><br />
<h5 style="line-height: 15pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: medium;"> What was lost</span></span></h5>
<h5 style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 15pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Let us now return to the Mother’s Vision and try to appreciate why she designed the entry in the manner she did and what the Knowledge states to confirm the perfection of her Seeing.</span></h5>
<h5 style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 15pt;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">Positioning of the entry into a temple, or any important edifice, is held to be extremely important in India, one of the very few countries in the world where sacred architecture is still practised, as it was throughout the ancient world. This passageway sets the tone for the entire experience of the aspirant thereafter. On this basis the rest of the Harmony unfolds. Therefore, if the first experience and the impact it produces is flawed, it can safely be said that the rest of the experience will be affected significantly.<br />
In a remarkable manner, the Mother captured almost the entire store of Vedic wisdom just by the 15-step stairway ascending into the Chamber from below – a <i>rise into the room</i>. She specified in her original plan that this passageway was to be positioned <i>south</i>, at a precise location in the floor. None of this was left to chance; all details were covered. There was no room for guessing or improvisation.<br />
Let us retract a bit and view this passageway within the entire structure. The Mother located the entrance into the temple itself according to the position of the rising Sun on April 4</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">. This would correspond to approximately the 14</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> degree of the Sun’s apparent motion along the ecliptic, beginning at 0 degree Aries on the March Equinox. This indicates that the entire structure has an orientation based on the four Cardinal Points. Already we note a correspondence with Vedic culture in no uncertain terms.</span></span></h5>

It is entrance into the North Cardinal Pole of the ecliptic and is held as the most sacred of all to this day. The entire nation continues to pay homage to this yearly passage on Makar Sankranti (Pongal, in Tamil Nadu), though the timing is woefully incorrect (by 23 days), and most do not understand its profound meaning and supporting knowledge. We find it revered even in the ancient Rig Veda where that ‘tenth month’ (Makar/Capricorn) is the period of victory of the Aryan Warrior.<br />
In all ancient cultures the December Solstice was known as the Festival of Light, because from that shortest day of the year the light begins to increase. Insofar as the focus of the Chamber is a descending solar ray, this solar experience of <i>increase</i> and <i>effulgence</i> is emphasised throughout the structure.</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><br />
<span lang="EN-GB"><i> </i>The Mother honoured the ancient Vedic tradition in this way, specifically creating the entrance in such a manner that the aspirant would see the descending Ray throughout his/her rise into the Chamber, on the backdrop of this sacred most Uttarayana. For in the Mother’s words, ‘Each facet [of the 12 walls] represents a month of the year.’ (The Matrimandir Talks)<br />
This is the <i>tone</i> set for the Chamber that was to resonate throughout the being of the aspirant; indeed, throughout the world like expanding ripples in the sea of the Earth-consciousness. The North Pole, or the <i>tenth month/facet</i> of the Chamber, encapsulates the entire destiny of India. It is the point on the ecliptic of the soul of the Earth, which is <i>geographically</i> located in India. This is the ‘note’ sounded throughout the entire Chamber, according to the Mother’s Vision, and confirmed in each aspect of the room.<br />
Because of this centre/soul connection, when the precision the Mother sought is honoured, then via the traditional Laws of Correspondence and Equivalence associated with Vedic Knowledge, everything she established in her plan is extended beyond the confines of not only Auroville and India but to the whole world. Without the required ‘precision’ no such connections are made. Above all, and this is what the builders of the Auroville Matrimandir do not understand, a revelation of this highest order depends for its success on a precision that is implemented on the basis of wholeness, a discernible thread weaving throughout the plan and design. In the original, this consistency of knowledge exists. It does not exist in the Auroville Matrimandir. The first mistake was having changed the entrance into the Chamber. It did indeed set the tone for all the changes that followed, together with all the attempts to make the Chamber <i>appear as ‘faithful to the original’,</i> when in fact this was never possible.<br />
Apart from the knowledge content captured in the 15-step rise into the Chamber, there is the <i>visual </i>impact to consider, as well as the <i>attitude</i> engendered in the aspirant through this approachway. It is an act of reverence to enter the Chamber <i> beneath</i> the Core (pedestal and globe/ray) rather than on the same level and towering above. Insofar as the Ray is visible during the entire ascent into the room, <i>(‘… On voyait le rayon…’), </i> the aspirant has his vision squarely on the descending shaft of Light, from top to bottom where it meets the globe and fills it with an effulgent luminosity.</span></span></div>
</h5>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: medium;"><b><span lang="EN-GB">What was ‘gained’</span></b></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><br />
<span lang="EN-GB">In the Auroville Matrimandir the experience is entirely different. There are two entrances in what appears to be through the east and west walls. This indicates the opposite to the soul connection of her original plan and its single south entry from below.<br />
According to the Knowledge, it is only the north month/facet that affords an entry to the soul point, for both the aspirant and the world. All men and women of wisdom know this. Therefore it is held as the most auspicious time of the year, the most sacred of all the months. It is this month (facet) that Krishna extolled in the Bhagavad Gita as ‘the best of all’. It is this day, the December Solstice, that Bhisma chose for his passing, as the Mahabharat informs us; indeed, as the very day the Epic begins. Throughout the culture, throughout the Scriptures this period is elevated above all others. And this is what the Mother captured in her design. She did not wish to eliminate that tradition but rather to enhance it, to elevate it to greater heights.<br />
Because those who received this treasure lacked this Knowledge, for all times it must stand that what has been constructed IN THE MOTHER’S NAME, lacks this profound sense. The revised model enhances, rather, the ego. This is because the UNITARY poise is lost by the dual entry. What is enforced is the BINARY CREATION; that is, a creation orbiting a void at the centre. A creation strung up on the cross of atavism and nailed to the sex centre.<br />
Indeed, this is the definition of the human ego: a consciousness in orbit of a void. The soul is lacking as a unitary support through which the individual remains always in contact with the Source of Fullness and not emptiness. Indeed, we have that very symbolism reproduced in the AMM where the crystal is transparent, empty and dark. Contrast this with the luminous globe of the Mother’s Vision. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">In this manner it is shown how unless ALL items of the Vision are incorporated, beginning with the south floor entrance rising into the Chamber, the remaining elements will conform to that deviation. And so it has been, as we will note through these Chronicles, item after item. The point is, we cannot tolerate that these deviations, which lack any higher knowledge content, continue to be called ‘The Mother’s Vision’. They must be acknowledged for what they are: an architect’s improvisations, which he is determined to hide from the public. He must be asked why.</span> </span></div>

If a client were to make such a statement to his/her architect, with the explicit request for a room of 24m diameter, there would be no difficulty for the professional to implement it faithfully. Moreover, it would be incongruous for the architect to assume that his client included in this request the circumscribing walls with their then unknown thickness and would have desired the room of 24m to include those walls within the diameter of the room, especially since the client had already stated, ‘I have only seen the inside’. </span></span></div>

In no uncertain terms and if for no other reason than logic, the Mother wanted the 24 metres ‘to end at the walls’. But since on this measurement the fate of the Mother’s Vision hinged, as the pioneering example of the new sacred art, given the downright bad will that pervaded the Auroville atmosphere, this was the feature of the Vision that was most staunchly opposed. It was a determined opposition that flew in the face of all logic. Mental contortions were engaged in to make sure that this crucial 24m diameter would not come into being in the construction. Nothing was finalised at this level in 1974 when the problem involving this measurement surfaced. There was every possibility of correcting the error Udar Pinto made in his drawing for the Mother.</span></span></div>

But to safeguard the design and wishes of the Mother, Providence made sure that the Mother’s own words would correct this mistake in the subsequent recorded discussions. That should have sufficed.<br />
It did not. Here is an example of those mental acrobatics to justify the architect and Matrimandir workers’ refusal to honour the Mother’s wishes: </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">These are excerpts from a book entitled, ‘<i>A House for the Third Millennium’</i>, by Ruud Lohman, a Roman Catholic priest who established himself at the site of the construction from the day of the Matrimandir’s inauguration in 1971 and never left until his death in the 1980s. We would not bother reproducing this gibberish if it were not for the fact that Lohman was a key influential figure in everything that transpired regarding the measurements and implementation of the Mother’s plan. He opposed any idea of measurements and ‘astrology’ as having any significance other than what his own limited consciousness could grasp; and was, from the beginning a staunch opponent of the tradition in these matters.<br />
Coming from the West, and conditioned heavily by his Catholic upbringing and priesthood, it is not surprising that he should have adopted the attitude that he did. But what is extraordinary is that such people were able to rule the day and convince every Indian involved in those early moments of the Chamber’s life, that <i>his</i> vision, <i>his</i> conclusions (see above specimen) were right. This was surely the ‘sense’ the Mother intended of the outside measurement, a flip-flop consciousness! With this sort of flippant attitude, is it any wonder that the crystal in the Auroville Matrimandir reflects the surroundings <b>upside-down</b>! For isn’t that topsy-turvy display just what Lohman would need to justify his theory of inside-outside/upside-down? Isn’t it the exact symbol of this sort of twaddle? Indeed, everything is ‘perfect’ in the Auroville Matrimandir.<br />
The disheartening part was that no one listened to the Mother herself. When she asked for precision and specific measurements, was <i>she</i> talking gibberish? And what would the Lohmans of this world say when confronted with the sacred <i>Mahamaya</i> that states, <i>‘…If the measurement of the temple is in every way perfect, there is perfection in the universe as well’ </i>(XXII, 92.)?</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">We know what Ruud Lohman thought of such matters and we can quote the same text when he describes his friend William’s conflict, after he ‘fell into the hands of an astrologer, also living in the Ashram’ (ibid): </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> ‘…After the visions of the Mater Divina [the Mother] and the niggling <i>humana</i>, a third element entered: the cosmos, the planets, the interpretations of the great rhythms of creation. And what did the inspirations say? It was <i>wrong</i> with the Matrimandir, wrong, wrong, wrong! Stop, stop! The builders, according to the stars, did not follow the measurements given by the Mother, and all the calculations couldn’t stand up any more. Or rather, the calculations stood, but Matrimandir didn’t. One ‘mistake’ especially was stressed a lot: the twenty-four meters from wall to wall. On the original drawing, the Mother had drawn just one little line for the thickness of the wall. The execution was left to the engineers, and when the calculations for the Matrimandir were fed into a computer in Madras in 1970, the walls became forty centimetres thick, and the twenty-four meters ran from the outside of the wall to the outside of the opposite wall. So the Chamber is twenty-four minus the twice-forty centimetres of the walls.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 21.6pt; margin-right: 21.6pt; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> ‘Well, that was for the astrologer the reason for all the crises, wars, disasters of the world today, for when one cosmic clock is off it throws everything else off, too. And she fulminated and wrote books and pamphlets and tried desperately to stop the work, but it went on and the Room is there, twenty-four meters minus the thickness of the walls.’ (Ibid.) </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0cm 21.6pt 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"><br />
</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">It is at this point in his story that Lohman introduces his theories of the fourth dimension and the Mother’s real intention which the Matrimandir architect and builders faithfully carried out: <b>Inside is outside and outside in when you are ‘measuring in the fourth dimension’.</b> Therefore, everything is all right with the Chamber. ‘The great Plan’, will always ‘fall ultimately square on its feet’, regardless of any mistakes Auroville might make.<br />
But the Mother’s Vision is not to be trampled upon so lightly and so amateurishly. There are indeed ‘cosmic laws’ involved, which these Chronicles will establish. And it is a fact that every attempt was made to stop the construction before it reached the point of no return so that this critical diameter measurement would be incorporated, just as the Mother wanted. But the Lohmans of this world have proven to have the stronger voice, even in India, a civilisation that should know better.<br />
But we do not have to retreat to the 1970s to discover the consciousness that rules Auroville. We have the words of a prominent Auroville researcher, Paulette, in her recent document to MAC, when it was pointed out that the Mother was then nearing 92 and her eyesight was poor: ‘…Who do you think the Mother is? Handing over wrong plans with wrong measures because her eyes could not detect the mistakes, as you pretend?’<br />
Again, the implication is that Auroville is always right: if the Mother gave the builders a plan with ‘mistakes’, that too was right and it was correct for them to incorporate those mistakes, because, as we had been told then, ‘she blessed that plan’ so it must be right, poor eyesight not withstanding.<br />
But there were other mistakes in Udar Pinto’s drawing. Yet these were all corrected. No such argument was proffered to justify guarding them zealously, unlike the incorrect floor diameter.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">Could it be that they were accepted and corrected without bringing in the Mother’s higher consciousness beyond physical eyes, or her fourth dimension vision where inside is outside, <b>simply because</b> <b> they were not crucial to the fate of her Vision?</b><br />
They were items that could always be added at a later date (or subtracted). One such mistake was that Pinto drew only <i>eleven columns</i> instead of the specified twelve. The unbiased reader must consider this: If that drawing’s 24m outside wall measurement was sacrosanct, though it was so obviously a mistake, why have the twelve columns been installed and not eleven, as Udar’s plan indicates (not to speak of the 15-step ascending entrance)? And why has Sri Aurobindo’s old symbol not been used for the ‘stand’, again as erroneously given in Pinto’s drawing? If these errors were all corrected without any argument, naturally we must draw the conclusion that, given the fact that the diameter is crucial in sacred geometry, and insofar as the builders chose the Troika formula of exaltation of the builders’ consciousness over any considerations of sacred architecture, it was a deliberate refusal, premeditated, obstinate. The intent was to stamp out any higher content from the Chamber.<br />
Indeed, this was our experience at the time. And it was this refusal to grant the Mother just this one meter more of ‘inner space’ that for all times the Auroville Matrimandir has been eliminated from the annals of great sacred art.<br />
Is this what everyone wanted? Why should any of us have accepted, without protest, that Auroville somehow had and has an unassailable sanction from the Divine to carry out such acts of desecration? Has anyone seriously, deeply pondered over what this attitude has engendered? Is it surprising then that a cover-up has been engaged in since then? Because how is history going to view this aberration? When future seekers read the Mother’s own words on the 24-meter diameter, how can the Auroville justifications be taken for anything other than what they were: a determination to remove her Vision from the annals of the great achievements in the field of sacred geometry?<br />
Here is just one clear explanation from the Mother to Satprem and Paolo on the question of the 24m diameter. Judge for yourselves, bearing in mind that when these transcripts were circulated the floor diameter had not been set in place; and in the words of the executing architect himself, ‘It would take just ten minutes [at the drawing board] to change the diameter.’ </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">This makes it abundantly clear that nothing was to interfere with the diameter measurement of the Chamber. There was no doubt at all what needed to be done since Udar had made a mistake in his hastily drawn plan but which was clarified by the Mother’s explicit instructions. Like the other mistakes this one too had to be corrected. That it was not, that this became the rallying point for opposition to sacred geometry and ‘astrology’ tells a tale of its own. By refusing to grant the Mother this simple one metre of space, the Auroville Matrimandir cannot lay any claim to be ‘the Mother’s original’, as has been the case over the years, a false position that is being exposed by these Chronicles. It cannot hold itself as the centre of the new Age where the ancient traditions would find their place and serve as the foundation for renewal and renaissance. That renewal, that reestablishment of the Dharma has to rely on the printed word alone now. Auroville forfeited its claim. But let us see how it continues to fool the public; and we must question why it does so? If centimetres have no meaning, then why has the room’s diameter been conveyed as 24 metres in all Auroville publications?<br />
Fund-raising pamphlets and cards have been issued where the impression is given that all the measurements are ‘faithful to the original’ (see Chronicle 3 and the executing architect’s statement). In this material a drawing of the temple is presented with measurements listed alongside, in such a way that the truth is obscured. Not only has the room’s true diameter been left undefined, but the entrances through the walls as well. From this drawing we would have to assume that the visitor simply MATERIALISES in the room, since no entrance has been indicated connected to the spiralling ramps.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">The question to be asked is why, if ‘astrology’ and ‘measurements’ have been purposely subtracted from the Mother’s Vision, does Auroville continue to hide the truth? We know the answer. The public now has the right to know.</span></span><span lang="EN-GB"><br />
<br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><b> <span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 14pt;">What was lost</span></b><br />
<span lang="EN-GB">There are two fundamental measurements in architecture of the sacred, the vertical and the horizontal. In the Mother’s design these are accurately provided and together with the entrance by 15 steps from below, the horizontal (room diameter) is essential. These were the two elements of the Mother’s original that had already been eliminated when Piero Cicionesi, the executing architect, made his false statements to the German Publisher, Fischer Verlag, in 1977-8.<br />
<a id="Divine-Maya">The Mother’s original Vision</a> is like a timepiece. She has herself revealed this connection explicitly in the Matrimandir Talks (31.12.1969 – 17.1.1970). The Chamber provides all the measurements of our day and month and year. The Mother not only stated that the 12 facets of the room were the twelve months of the year; she also incorporated the day of 24 hours. With this simple specification the great secret of the Vision was revealed, that the Mother’s Vision provides humanity with the new Divine Maya, or the Golden Rod of western tradition. <i>It is the measure of time in space.</i> The 24m diameter holds the key.<br />
Without this accurate measurement the whole structure ‘falls apart’. We will demonstrate this by way of diagrams in future Chronicles. There may be cement and steel which are apparently indestructible. But these are <i>perishable</i> materials. They are not the substance of immortality. It is only Time that can render imperishable the perishable when it is an ally in the process of transformation, for it is the builder of Form.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="en-gb"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span> <span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> <span lang="EN-GB">The talk of the Auroville Matrimandir being the seat of a ‘yoga of the cells’ is therefore to be seriously questioned. When Time and its indispensable precision are rubbished and the Divine Measure that utilises the new precision is trashed, what transformation of matter are we talking about? Time is the building mortar, the true cementing factor. Hence its secrets are coveted by all seekers in the quest for immortality. Without the allegiance of Time, all such quests are illusions. To deny measure is to deny time is to deny form. How then are we to transform matter? Have we any right to claim that we are doing so when we do not accept the terms matter imposes?<br />
<i>Mayavada </i>has permeated the yogic consciousness of India for far too long. Everything to do with material, cosmic manifestation is considered an illusion. This is what the spiritual authorities tell us. Indeed, this lies behind the rejection of <i>measure</i> and the <i>precision</i> the Mother demanded. The ‘new precision’ involves Time in the transformation as an <i>ally</i> and not a <i> destroyer</i>. Without this allegiance there can be no ‘yoga of the cells and matter’. The Mother’s original plan gave us this precious knowledge. <i>It exists for those who SEE</i>. It does not exist in the Auroville Matrimandir, in spite of the mental acrobatics of the non-believers <i>(‘…One is not going to say it. To begin with, they would not believe me…’</i>).<br />
<a id="Divine-Measure">For India the loss</a> of the Vision has done incalculable damage. This will be explained in detail in future Chronicles. It is sufficient to state for the moment that the emphasis by the Mother on <i>time</i> and <i>measure</i> was a calculated divine strategy insofar as India lost the Divine Measure a number of centuries ago when the sidereal (Nirayana) zodiac was adopted in lieu of the Vedic tropical (Sayana) zodiac. It is only with the tropical zodiac that the Makar Sankranti, the shortest day of the year and entry into Capricorn, has any relevance both within India and connected to the rest of the world. This is the true VEDIC astrology, unlike what goes by that name today.<br />
The reasons for this aberration are intimately connected to Sri Aurobindo’s mission and explain his statement that Kalki comes ‘to correct the error of the Buddha’. The Mother’s Vision, with its ‘new precision’ involving <i>time </i>and <i>measure,</i> was a crucial piece in the correction process. Her Vision reinstates the tropical zodiac in all its details and provides India with the Divine Measure once again, - and with it the keys to her destiny and place within the new Supramental dispensation. There is no way in which India can fulfil that high destiny without this Divine Measure. Through these Chronicles, we shall prove the point.<br />
This is what ‘astrology’ says – and therefore every possible attempt was made to save her Vision in spite of the recalcitrant ignorance we encountered at every step of the way.<br />
And yet there is an irony. For the most successful ‘mental acrobat’ of them all in Auroville was right on the mark <b>when he connected the Chamber to the <i>fourth dimension</i></b>. But he ended by destroying his own correct perception!<br />
In future Chronicles we will present diagrams that will prove how indispensable the 24m diameter was to the sacred function of the Inner Chamber. We will also provide further proof that a cover-up has been in progress to make the public believe that ‘all is as it should be’, everything is ‘all right’ with the Matrimandir. For Ruud Lohman has said so, may his soul rest in peace. Amen.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">The Mother was very clear: <i>‘I did not see the outside…only the inside…’</i> Further, she indicated that she was open to suggestions. In the <i> Matrimandir Talks</i>, 17 January 1970, there is even some discussion on the subject, and a sketch as well. What begins to emerge is the temple’s outer shape, the Vishnu Shalagrama, one of the most sacred forms in Vedic culture.<br />
</span></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">This was to be the collectivity’s contribution to the Mother’s temple. The cosmic/yogic principles involved are the One and the Many; or else, the Unity and the Multiplicity; or the Point and the Circle; or the Centre and the Periphery. These are different ways of expressing a key aspect of the Supermind. That is, when we have a ‘supramental manifestation’, we know that in some way these two seemingly opposing positions or principles <i>must be reconciled.</i><br />
</span></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">India has grappled yogically with this conundrum for two thousand years - and has been seemingly unsuccessful. From the time of Gautam the Buddha to the present, we observe how slowly and steadily the issue has been entirely shelved; no such reconciliation was possible. The only ‘solution’ was to escape<i>, </i>to ignore the problem, to undermine its very existence by describing the components involved as ‘illusion’. The direction of the quest was changed and consequently the goal; Sri Aurobindo has elaborated on the matter in his <i>Letters on Yoga</i>.<br />
</span></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">This was the fate of the Vedic Divine Maya. UP THERE she was allowed her ‘space’. When a split in the yogic perceptive capacity arose ‘down here’, she was simply <i>Maya</i>, devoid of any divine attributes. The yogic spirit of India succumbed to the same disease which afflicted the entire globe at the end of the 8<sup>th</sup> Manifestation of Sri Krishna when realms BEYOND became the goal of the quest, unlike pre-Buddhist Vedic India. Some described it as the onset of a <i>Kaliyuga</i>.</span></span></div>

It is most clearly recognisable in the occident where orthodox religions finally made a dogma of the split and Spirit and Matter became forever stark opposites in the binary creation of the mental human being, whose sustenance is this pole of tension engendered by the split. The material world of time and space was not known as ‘illusion’ in the West but evil, and a downright Hell. It became a prison, a place where sinners could find a springboard to heaven after death if they were fortunate enough to recognise the one Saviour, and only that one, who could lead them out of their misery. However he managed it, the mental human being could not reconcile these opposites because of his binary affliction.<br />

The yogic realiser was free to pursue his or her preference, even when the predominant influence was the way of Advaita and Mayavada. There was, however, a price to pay: India lost her hold over the material plane that, in the language of Number, is 9, and that, according to the Mother’s designation, is defined as <i>creation in matter</i>. Having abdicated, having opted for otherworldliness as the goal, all else was undermined. As a result, down the centuries with the corrosion that set in, <b>from within</b>, India suffered invasion upon invasion, conquests, colonisations, humiliations, desecration of her most sacred treasures; and finally, every illness we see around us today. At the root of it all was the loss of the Divine Measure several thousand years ago with all its repercussions thereafter.<br />

But it is not enough to describe the elegant simplicity of the geometry involved. When the Supermind is made manifest all the Knowledge has to be <i>applied today</i>.

It also offers the geometric understanding of the Mother’s mission as Divine Maya and the purpose of her ‘act of measuring’. For the inner chamber is the Point; the outer Shalagrama shape is the Circle. This simple correlation describes certain specific boundaries. Her <i>sacrosanct </i>domain was the Inner Chamber <i> (‘I saw only the inside…’)</i>; the outer shape was to be the contribution of the collectivity.

It is the same conundrum quantum physics faces when it seeks to measure the position of point and/or wave: it is one or the other. This symbol, transposed to the respective duties of the Mother and the group, reconciles the paradox and expresses the <i>simultaneous</i> <i> harmony</i> of the two. Those two elements were, first and foremost, the 24m chamber floor diameter – no more, no less – and the placement of the chamber of 24m in a perfect circle with a consequent radius of 14.40m. They determined the correct dimensions of the Shalagrama whereby it became integrated into the whole. It was then elevated to the realm of <i>sacred geometry</i>.<br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">The classic Shalagrama is constructed on the basis of three interrelated circles. This in itself allows us to appreciate why in India it is one of the most sacred forms of geometry, revealing as it does the triune nature of reality, which Sri Aurobindo describes as Transcendent, Cosmic, and Individual; or else Sat-Chit-Ananda. Reproduced below is the construction of the three circles with their respective radii.</span></span><span lang="EN-GB"> </span><br />

Width and height will vary accordingly. While this is possible geometrically, the result in the Mother’s temple is that two important <i>harmonies</i> are lost, which we will describe in these Chronicles.</span> <br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">The idols of a Hindu Temple must be fashioned according to set rules. These were laid down centuries ago based on the visions of sages. It is only when those exact proportions are reproduced that the idol is truly infused with a certain <i>energy </i>that is the cosmic essence of that particular deity. If, in the fashioning of the <i> murthi,</i> the sculptor introduces a variation without the inspired <i>drishti</i>, the connection is lost. The idol is then abandoned and certainly never installed in the temple. Thus, accurate proportions are crucial to the function of the idol.<br />
</span></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">In earlier times, before the decline, idols were not required for this function, only pure geometry was used. This was the Vedic Age several thousand years ago. The construction, known as <i>vedi</i>, was simply a particular geometric form made of bricks. These structures for the <i>homam</i> were often quite elaborate and the geometry involved was complex. The sacrifice could only be ‘pleasing’ to the Godhead (Agni, for example) if the geometry was executed with meticulous care. Then, and only then, was it elevated to the level of the sacred.<br />

This injunction was the signal that she was resuscitating a very ancient Vedic tradition. It is similar to the difference between Carnatic and Hindustani music. The former is like the skeleton of the structure (music); the bare and pure essence; the latter is a step or more removed from the basic structure or pure essence. In certain periods of evolution the <i>vedi</i> is the way; in times when the Knowledge, pure and overt, has to be covered in veils in order to preserve it, then the skeleton/essence structure acquires outer sheaths – like Guha covered in veils.<br />

The element of crucial importance is the floor diameter of 24m. This is where the walls are set <i>(‘…it is understood the 24m ends at the walls’)</i> and then extend upward to join the occult circle at 8.65m. If not, if, as in the Auroville Matrimandir, the chamber measures 23m, nothing HOLDS. Those points in the temple’s inner spaces do not exist. Yes indeed, Ruud Lohman, everything ‘falls apart’.</span></span><br />

The chamber cannot remain suspended with ‘supports’ only at the upper reaches of the walls, as if hanging on a clothes line! A <i>base</i> must exist as well as other subtle points in space to define the Divine Maya unequivocally, and to integrate inner and outer. This greater definition is provided by Sri Aurobindo through his own special symbol consisting of two triangles, ascending and descending, and an inner square. In this Chronicle we will reveal the exquisite interaction between Sri Aurobindo and the Mother displayed through sacred geometry and architecture, and their allotted tasks in the Supramental Manifestation.<br />

This diagram is taken from <i>The New Way, </i>Volume 2, published by Aeon Books, (1978)1981. The dates are important in order to bring to the attention of the public the continued campaign of deception Auroville engages in, involving this most sacred of symbols. For the prevailing consciousness in Auroville <i>nothing is sacred</i>. Knowledge is desecrated time and again by misusing it for personal ambition, or to deceive the public. To succeed in this campaign the diagrams we will reproduce in this Chronicle, all taken from the above-mentioned publication of Aeon Books, were lifted by Mona Doctor, an Auroville architect.</span></span><br />

<span lang="EN-GB">By letter dated 6.10.1989, Mona Doctor wrote to the author of <i>The New Way</i> requesting permission to use the material in Volume 2 which is reproduced here. She claimed that she was writing a thesis on the relationship between the Matrimandir and the Great Pyramid at Giza. A two-page reply was sent to her, making all the above points absolutely clear; namely, that the Pyramid and other relationships she was to write about did not exist in the Auroville Matrimandir. She was warned that unless this fact was explicitly stated in her thesis and that the diagrams and text refer only to the Mother’s original plan, with due acknowledgements, permission could not be granted.</span></span></div>

Finally, in January 1991, extracts from her thesis were published in <i> Auroville Today</i>, issue No. 25. Again no mention was made of the fact that the diagrams pertained only to the Mother’s original and not the Auroville Matrimandir. But not only was no such clarification given to the public, so that there would be no misrepresentation, there was no reference at all to <i>The New Way, </i>source of all the material she presented as her own.<br />

With Sri Aurobindo’s new symbol, since its proportions are the same as the Great Pyramid, the Mother’s yogic feat has drawn ancient Egypt into her chamber. This is easily verified in the above drawings which bear the precision the Mother required to allow for these correspondences. This exact correlation involving sacred architecture, separated by thousands of kilometres and thousands of years, is one more example of the magnitude of the Mother’s visionary greatness.<br />

The powers-that-be are careful to misuse and desecrate only to the extent that the reader or viewer cannot detect the deception by comparison with what stands on the ground, where there is no ascending 15-step stairway. The above diagram would make the truth obvious. Instead, another diagram has been carried on the website, also from <i>The New Way </i>(Vol. 2, p.458), but again without acknowledgment. It describes a 110cm band at the intersection of Sri Aurobindo’s two triangles. The point of that diagram is to highlight a ‘sensitive’ area for the individual seated in the chamber. But this too is false because no such band of 110cm <b>exists</b> since Sri Aurobindo’s symbol does not ‘exist’ in the Shalagrama due to the changed measurements and the lack of the necessary precision.<br />

The question to ask is, where is Sri Aurobindo’s symbol in the Auroville Matrimandir? More importantly, what relevance does the Golden Section have to the Mother’s Vision? To be frank, not much at all; and certainly nothing that can compare to the new revelations which are indeed of the utmost relevance. All are free to have their own experience and follow their own preferences, but why focus on the past when the present in the Mother’s Vision is of such greater beauty and importance for us today?<br />

In the same way that the Mother’s Vision itself was treated during the infamous 18-day fruitless struggle, so too has the <i>Knowledge content</i> of her Vision, as preserved in these diagrams, been similarly desecrated.</span></span></div>

It is a tactic of the Lord of Falsehood, whose reign continues throughout the world, to disfigure the true thing for unsuspecting seekers. Added to this is the question of donations. It is known that these arts are central to Indian culture. An unsuspecting public will surely be more apt to donate if it is led to believe that the sacred is alive and well in the Auroville Matrimandir.

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><b><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 14pt;">What was lost</span></b><br />
<span lang="EN-GB">The first point to note is that the Mother redesigned Sri Aurobindo’s symbol in May of 1964. Without this no correspondences with the Pyramid – and much more – would have been possible. This was not arbitrary and whimsical, contrary to what Paulette of Auroville has suggested to MAC (letter dated 23.2.2003). The change was in utter and perfect synchronicity with Sri Aurobindo’s supramental process at that very time.<br />
</span></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">In its complete form according to the official design, which includes details of the inner square, the deepest secrets of the Supramental Manifestation are contained. Above all, there is the <i> formula</i> for Supermind’s organisation for Earth use. And these great mysteries form the core of the knowledge the Mother captured in her plan of the inner chamber. Not fanciful, whimsical, and purposeless, as Auroville would have us believe. Rather, we see the Mother as the architect of the Transcendent’s Will, impeccable in her transposition of that Will into material creation, the field of the number 9, the Transcendent’s own number in the new supramental Order.<br />
</span></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">We know that the Mother ‘did not see the outside’ and that this was to be the contribution of the collectivity, as explained in Chronicle 5. Ironically, it is that very contribution that exposes the shadow covering the Auroville Matrimandir. For Sri Aurobindo’s symbol inserted in the Shalagrama, as in our diagram, reveals how it must serve as the ‘support’ for the Chamber, just as Sri Aurobindo did in his own lifetime for his collaborator, the Mother.<br />

The area is encircled in the diagram below (B). If the diameter is altered in any way, the room cannot find the required ‘support’ from Sri Aurobindo’s ascending triangle. Therefore, the Mother insisted that <i>‘the 24 metres <u>end at the walls’</u>.</i> Not a whimsical and purposeless idea. This was an explicit <i>command</i> from the Divine Executor of the Transcendent’s Will. Similarly, the pillars enclose the square of his symbol and mark off the triangles’ sides (ascending sides and descending base) at the precise location specified by the Mother.

Again we must refer to <a href="http://www.matacom.com/chr5/ChronicleFive_4.html">Chronicle 5, page 4</a>, and the discussion on Vedic tradition. The proportions for the idols of Hindu temples are sacrosanct because they are taken from the cosmic harmonies and only when executed faithfully can that particular cosmic energy occupy the form.</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"><b><i> </i></b></span></span></div>

There is no approximation possible; either the 24m diameter exists, or it does not. Since we know that the Auroville Matrimandir chamber does NOT have a diameter of 24m, we also know that no matter how perfect the Shalagrama outer shape may be, and no matter how carefully it has been designed on the basis of the relevant geometry, Sri Aurobindo’s symbol cannot <i>manifest</i> in that form, with all that this implies. </span></span></div>

We will go deeper into these revelations in these Chronicles since for the first time in many thousands of years sacred architecture has been infused with the light of Mahasaraswati to a degree never before witnessed, not even in the best of Hindu temples. The signal that the time had come for this marvellous happening was the Supramental Manifestation of 29 February 1956. The Mother then entered a ‘new mode’, as it were. A review of her experiences and activities from that time onward reveal what this new role has been.<br />

In <i>Savitri </i>it would be Ashwapathy. We know that it is transcendence because it is not PHYSICALLY but SUBTLY present in the structure, yet all embracing, all encompassing, - and indispensable. Transcendent yes, but not oblivious or disregardful of the demanding laws of material creation where He is made manifest. And this very fact confirms the knowledge of the Supramental Manifestation that the Mother captured in her plan, in conjunction with her new role and the experiences she was having after 1956. Without this understanding we cannot appreciate the manner in which Sri Aurobindo serves to INTEGRATE inner and outer; how it is through him that this is achieved as a fundamental part of the Supramental Manifestation.<br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">In <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/2012/03/part-vi-transcendent-sri-aurobindo-in.html">Chronicle 6</a>, the nature of Transcendence was discussed as it is <i>made manifest</i> via the sacred geometry of the Mother’s Vision. However, the Inner Chamber carries us forward into the Supramental Manifestation as it was then and as it would unfold for many years to come. It is ‘written’ in the temple, true to the pinnacles reached in sacred architecture which are now preserved only in myth. There is no <i> living</i> example of this objective art form anywhere in the world. Only the Mother’s Vision preserves the art for the future. At the same time, the Mother left humanity with all the keys of knowledge required to make a <i>conscious</i> passage into that new future, the primary demand in the Age of Supermind.<br />

In the Auroville structure there is no higher truth in evidence; it is simply the ordinary human condition:<i> groping for the light in darkness</i>.

In these Chronicles we have mentioned the Laws of Equivalence and Correspondence. They are the foundation of the new Seeing; or, as the Mother would describe it, <i>the new precision</i>. It is a concept found throughout the Veda. To give an example, <b> ‘one day equals one year’</b> is one such <i>law.</i> With this formula the art of ‘progressing’ a horoscope evolved. This is still a firm pillar in the so-called western system of astrology. Though it is entirely Vedic, it fell into disuse in India when the Divine Maya was lost centuries ago. But it is with this very formula, together with similar ‘correspondences’, that the supreme <i>rahasya</i> of the Mother’s original plan is unveiled. One day for one year, as a concrete example of Malamoud’s statement, means that the day of 24 hours was equivalent to the year of 365 days for the Vedic Rishi. With this ‘philosopher’s stone’ that the Mother has left us in the precision of her sacred plan, we can appreciate how a renewal of these ancient truths is carried out.</span></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></div>

<b><span lang="EN-GB"> <span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: medium;">The truth of that which moves</span></span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">All Chronicles to date have dealt with the horizontal plane exclusively. But in sacred architecture of any real value, there are <i>two directions</i> that are essential and must be transcribed with meticulous care: horizontal and vertical. When we transpose this to the harmonies of the cosmos, they become <i>expansion</i> and <i>contraction</i>, respectively. Thus, in the Mother’s Vision it was made clear that the chamber’s diameter (horizontal) was a key feature, without which ‘nothing holds’ (see <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/2012/02/part-v-inner-and-outer-one-and-many.html">CIC 5</a> and <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/2012/03/part-vi-transcendent-sri-aurobindo-in.html">6</a>). We may add that without the vertical and time, <i>nothing MOVES</i>. <b>And without MOTION there is <i><u>nothing to hold</u></i> because there is no material universe of the 9, or a creation in matter.</b> As we penetrate deeper levels of the Mother’s revelation we will set her vision <i> in motion</i> like a magical carousel that is suddenly put into a dynamic mode,<i> </i>based on the renewed application of the Laws of Equivalence and Correspondence. This is accomplished by the incorporation of Time in the geometry and design; and it is the property of the Vertical. The most unique aspect of the Mother’s Vision, never before accomplished, is this Geometry of Time.</span></span></div>

But each of these items is not without its symbolic meaning. More than that, they describe features of the Supramental Manifestation in its ongoing expression as the Work is organised today, and for tomorrow. In this light we note that the Mother’s symbol is incorporated in the horizontal dimension (expansion) not the vertical. The reader must note this distinction because it is fundamental if we want to read what is ‘written’ in the chamber<br />

Except for some clues she provided, the rest was to be discovered with the subsequent descent of the Knowledge during the ‘sorting out’ process. But just because her entourage dismissed that ‘sense’ and symbolism, it does not follow that we are prohibited from not only making these discoveries but from wanting to <i>preserve</i> her Vision just as she chose to reveal it; for which reason she set in motion the ‘sorting out of the people’. Naturally, to receive the new things new methods had to be devised, new vistas of yoga had to be opened.<br />

These are not as esoteric and recondite as first appears. For instance, the <i>law</i> ‘one day for one year’ simply refers to the fact that vis-à-vis the Sun the <i>experience</i> of the Earth in the 24-hour revolution on her axis, during which time she turns all parts of herself to the luminary, is the same as her revolution around the Sun in our 365-day year. Admittedly, to appreciate this correspondence <i>a perception of oneness</i> must exist. On that basis, a definite correspondence of<i> experience</i>, of <i>being</i>, of <i>purpose</i> emerges between the day and the year for Earth’s creatures. It is <i>written</i> in our genes, just as the Sun’s own physical pulsation is recorded in our cells: <b>exactly 9 pulsations in our 24-hour day</b>. Even further, these various movements of the Earth around the Sun are the planet’s contribution to the harmony. It is her rhythm, her ‘music’ added to the symphony of the whole ensemble that is our solar system.<br />

When this perfectly fashioned base is established and the horizontal plane is firmly in place, our eyes then turn to the vertical, the ‘carousel’s’ <i>axis of light</i>. And there, hidden in the descending miracle Ray playing upon the globe and ending at the top of the stone pedestal, consisting of Sri Aurobindo’s four upright symbols, we <i>see</i> the year of 365 days – passing over a space of 15.20m by the Laws of Correspondence and Equivalence. Those 15.20m in a descending cascade must stop at the top of the pedestal. If we wish to honour the Harmony, the Ray must measure 365 days/15.20m. If it does not, there is disharmony; everything is askew and Time is the destroyer and not the ally because his demanding Laws have been transgressed.</span></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 11pt;"> <br />

<span lang="EN-GB">In the Matrimandir Talks the Mother mentions two figures, 15.20 and 15.50. Both are correct. One is the measure of the miracle Ray, the other is the height of the room. To reconcile the two and draw them harmoniously into the rhythm of the whole, the missing but crucial element is the pedestal. For it is Sri Aurobindo’s sacred symbol that reconciles and integrates once again. This occurs only when the exact measurement (height and width) of the pedestal is discovered.<br />

<div align="justify" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 14pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> <span lang="EN-GB">At that point she did not have to specify because the pedestal’s proportions were <b>entirely dependent on the diameter of the globe</b> which she did specify: 70 cm.<br />

In the Shalagrama, Sri Aurobindo ‘appears’ in his subtle transcendent form only when the Mother’s inner chamber is accurately constructed, - i.e., a room of a precise 24m diameter. Only then does the Transcendent ‘manifest’ in the outer form.<br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">A Vesica Piscis drawn on the basis of a circle of 70cm diameter holds the pedestal ‘in its bosom’ (see diagram above). And since the Mother stated that she saw the corners of Sri Aurobindo’s orange-coloured stone symbols touching, the key to the discovery lay in the fact that with a 70cm Vesica those upright rectangles would accommodate neatly and exactly Sri Aurobindo’s symbol within the lower ‘subtle’ circle. We emphasise <i>subtle</i> (the dotted line circle in the diagram to the right above) because in the chamber’s core this circle exists <i> by inference</i> – just as Sri Aurobindo’s symbol ‘manifests subtly’ in the Shalagrama. His provides the seal and sanction – though subtle or ‘from above’ – for the outer Shalagrama and integrates inner and outer, but only because in the inner space his transcendence becomes <i>immanent</i> in the stone pedestal. But it, in turn, is ‘legitimised’ by the luminous Globe of perfect measure.</span></span></div>

Is it therefore any wonder that the Mother did not want mere photographs in the chamber? This geometry of pure forms carries the seeker far beyond the physical and into the highest reaches of planes above mind. It is as if the transformation of matter takes place before our eyes in the chamber, as <i>all things are made new</i> in this most elegant of all geometric revelations.<br />

Hence the Shalagrama is a geometric form greatly revered in India because it displays this great secret: the <i> materialisation</i> of the Transcendent, from <i>subtle</i> to <i> stone</i>, the most<i> </i>material substance on our planet. Essentially, this is the function of the Divine Maya: to legitimise material creation by ‘giving form to the Formless’ through this miracle of transposition from above to below flawlessly.

There is nothing BEYOND that is not found here, at the heart of material creation, whose number is 9 by virtue of the 9 pulsations of the Sun. And this is the great secret of the vertical shaft of the Mother’s inner chamber according to her original plan. This is the secret of the Divine Maya, that supreme architect of the Transcendent, she who makes him <i>manifest,</i> who buries him ‘in a mother’s breast’. Thus is the Immanent born among us, equal in every way to the Transcendent who precedes him. He is ‘born’ by a compelling <i>compression to a</i> <i>point</i>.

When we enter into a detailed discussion of the descending Ray, we will see how the circle is squared, so to speak, when the circular Ray, whose diameter should also be 60cm, passes through the Globe and then into the solid 60cm square of the pedestal. Hidden and in the secret recesses of the rectangular stone base, that circle is squared in a magical alchemy for the transformation of matter, or the conversion of lead to gold. This is akin to the unknown and mystifying process that transpired in the King’s chamber of the Great Pyramid. So important was <i>precision</i> in the fashioning of the rectangular box, known commonly as the sarcophagus, that <i><u>precision tools of the highest calibre</u></i> were used in its construction. Needless to say, this fact does not receive any publicity in archaeological or historical research circles because none can explain the existence of such tools thousands of years ago. This ancient structure displays such a high degree of precision that we cannot equal the task today even with our best equipment.<br />

For it is the <i>Eye that Sees</i> at the heart of every created thing; just as the golden seed of the Truth-Consciousness is lodged in the depths of material creation, centre to all created things; and from there this golden seed CONTROLS THE PLAY by being the ‘centre that holds’.<br />

She has left humanity an exact description of the deepest secrets of Reality through a most sophisticated use of geometric symbols. She has explained the paradox of simultaneous Transcendence and Immanence that has mystified the human mind since the first moment consciousness began to ponder the meaning of life and creation’s purpose. In a most ingenious use of symbols, her inner chamber within the sacred Shalagrama offers a visual perception of the act of creation, - or the passage of Transcendence to Immanence at the heart of that material creation, without losing anything of himself. We see thus the origin of Light (the Ray), his very Light, which comes into being when that transcendent Consciousness <b>inverts and begins its descent through the act of compression </b>by the power of his Divine Maya<b> </b>into the<b> </b>boundaries of the universal manifestation (the Shalagrama).<br />

<span lang="EN-GB">ALL OF THIS WAS LOST IN THE AUROVILLE MATRIMANDIR. There is not one element of the sacred in the core of that structure. Not only was Sri Aurobindo’s symbol rendered effete and weak by its see-through design and the materials employed, its measurements, disproportionate to the globe, were not of the precision required to allow the chamber to perform the very object for which the Mother gave the world this sacred revelation: the key to Time’s transformation into an <i>ally </i>for the descent of the supramental creation and the realisation of Immortality. Most unforgivable of all is that the measure of the miracle Ray was distorted beyond recognition by not ending its descent at the top of the pedestal (15.20m), after which <b>it must no longer be seen</b>. What transpires in the pedestal is the great Secret; it is Guha, the hidden one in the cave, at the innermost space of the seeker where there is only that sacred Point: the Immanent, the One, Agni, Satyavan.

But from what has been explained in this Chronicle, the reader can easily understand that Cicionesi was simply true to himself and the binary creature that he is, in orbit of a void (the origin of the human ego).</span></span></span></div>

And further, this is the reason for our mortality: energy slips away through ‘gaps’ during the act of extreme contraction, which is the definition of death. The fragile binary creature, bearing this ‘hole’ centremost and not <i>the One who fills the void,</i> cannot sustain the compression and is thus pushed out of the material universe of time and space just like Cicionesi’s exiting ‘ray’, thereby severing his/her conscious awareness of this plane. This is the famous ‘escape’ of all post-Vedic paths.</span><br />

Is it surprising then that the execution of Piero Cicionesi’s gold-plated wrought iron see-through stand gave so much trouble? Indian craftsmen were ‘unable’ to deal with the black spots that surfaced after gold plating was done, due to countless holes that appeared in the symbol. Once again it was Germany that came to the rescue – similar to the transparent and equally imperfect ‘crystal’ which the blemished ‘stand’ upholds, also fashioned in Germany.<br />

This was shortly after the Supramental Manifestation Day, 29 February, 1956. She explains that a supramental entity came into her and she particularly emphasises that it was a solid block, “<b>a rectangle with a square base”</b>. It is noteworthy that some fifteen years later she discovered that the most important element of the core [of her temple] – the pedestal where the alchemy of a New Time transpires – is precisely this form: a rectangle with a square base, and that into that geometrical form Sri Aurobindo’s symbol would fit with exact precision. </span> </span></span> </div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">Both Cow and Horse were mighty symbols in the Vedic Age. So powerful was the vision of the Rishis in this regard that at least one of these symbol-creatures continues to be revered by contemporary Hindu society. But what happened to the Horse? This is a tale to be told because it describes the essence of the transformation that must be achieved through the Mother’s Vision. For it is the Mother’s chamber that re-establishes the Horse on a par with the Cow when both become, before our eyes, <i>symbols of the thing symbolised</i>. In the process, the ancient Veda is restored, renewed for our times in the midst of our contemporary society. The Word may be eternal; but to be truly a Vedic experience it must express the harmony of today’s Becoming. This is what the Mother’s Vision accomplishes, and this is why Time is her instrument in the chamber.<br />

The answer lies in <i>the ‘symbol’ being the thing symbolised</i>; but it is in the Mother’s chamber that the Cow is really exalted to reach the sublime pinnacle where there is indeed no separation between symbol and what it ‘stands’ for. It is Time that erases the line between the two, whose <i>form</i> is the year, the Veda tell us.</span></span><br />

In the Mother’s chamber the Ray is <i>materialised </i>as the first treasure to appear when Vishnu’s Shalagrama is churned; and, like the curdling of butter in some primordial milky miasma, <b>forms</b> arise of the Transcendent’s undifferentiated light (the Cow) as it enters our material world whose essence is movement, that ‘churning’ that generates <i>forms</i>. The chamber reveals that the first ‘form’ is the year, which is itself the Ray (Cow).<br />

Time creates cosmos out of chaos, order of disorder. But there is Time, and there is time. There is Time of the Supramental Manifestation, and time of the lesser worlds. The proof that this is the higher manifestation is the <i> order it brought with it as its very own <u>language</u>.

It was, in fact, in a special period of the year: the tenth month, or Capricorn, <i>Makar</i>.

We can therefore apply the harmony through the symbol to the human gestation – as well as a connection to the pulsations of our Sun in the Earth day of 24 hours. But let us go into the details of the Mother’s Vision regarding the <u> correction</u> that Sri Aurobindo predicted would take place with the appearance of Kalkiavatar. These Ten Avatars, emanations of Vishnu himself, are indeed ‘symbols’ of a process, an evolutionary process. They are representatives of certain cosmic procedures; as such, when we reach the final stages we know that everything must be made new. The ‘error’ that Kalkiavatar is to correct, according to Sri Aurobindo, is upon us. And the Mother not only confirms his prophecy but carries out the correction by re-establishing the real Vedic measure of the year. In the process, some of the salient aspects of the tradition are reinforced, such as the ancient Festival of Light. We will verify the true Vedic measure on the basis of her Vision when the luminous Globe becomes light-filled before our eyes precisely during the time when indeed the light begins its increase as the Earth plays out the harmony her axial balance allows.<br />

<b><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: medium;">The ‘year’ of Saturn, ruler of India, in the Mother’s chamber</span></span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">The year of 365 days ends at the top of the pedestal, and with it the visible Ray. The pedestal serves to legitimise and support the Globe – the only luminous object in the entire chamber. The legitimacy resides in the measure of time for the Earth, her own harmony within the solar system which the height of the pedestal establishes. Thus, to those 15.20m (365 days) we must now add the 50cm of the pedestal’s vertical measurement. On this basis the Axis of Light, or the chamber’s vertical shaft, measures 15.20m plus 50cm. The pedestal must be accommodated in this manner if the integrality of the supramental gnosis and its harmonies are to be respected.<br />

The Zero Point for the year/ray would be 1584 since it is the first 9-power year (1+5+8+4=18=9) after the adoption of the universal calendar used throughout the world (1582). Thus, 365 years measured from the Ray’s entry into the chamber, reveals that as the organised shaft of light descends, it reaches Sri Aurobindo’s symbol in the pedestal at the end of the visible Ray, 365 <i>years</i> later, in the year equivalent of 1949/50.</span></span></div>

Therefore, in a space of 50cm, we note that 13 days/years are ‘contained’. Insofar as the chamber is a veritable hymn to Saturn, or Chronos the Time-Spirit, known also as the ruler of India’s sign, Capricorn, those additional 13 days added to the Earth’s 365 give us a total of 378. By a miracle of gnostic measure, <b>378 days are precisely the synodic year of none other than Saturn</b>. As seen from the Earth, it takes 378 days for Saturn to make one revolution around the Sun; that is, Sun, Saturn, and Earth return to their same positions vis-à-vis each other in this period of time. And this miracle of the Law of Equivalence is found in the central shaft when the Mother’s original plan is respected. Thus is born <i>the new precision</i>.<br />

<span lang="EN-GB">The most unfortunate loss India must face in the Auroville Matrimandir has been the possibility of having the Mother’s fullest power at the service of the fulfilment of the nation’s high destiny. Without that Power the labour is infinitely more difficult and to a large extent impossible. For this special assistance the purpose of her descent as the Divine Maya had to be allowed.<br />

The years of Earth and Saturn <i>just do not exist there</i>, where no precision is discernible except the predictable mechanics of the human ego and its legendary blind arrogance. To be even more specific, though this limited space allows for only a small portion of the content of the temple to be discussed, the further proof of Saturn’s pre-eminent role in the temple’s Axis of Light is provided by Sri Aurobindo himself, as a sort of seal and sanction from the Transcendent Divine:</span></span></div>

In other words, since Sri Aurobindo’s natal Saturn lies at 15 degrees in his horoscope, and the pedestal indicates both 15 degrees Capricorn, <u>as well as 1950</u>, based on the Vedic formula ‘one day for one year’, we have to admit that <u> <b>the time of his ‘mystery sleep’ has been ‘written’ in the temple by the Mother herself as his Divine Maya</b>,</u> in the language known, but long forgotten on the subcontinent, to the greatest of Vedic Rishis.</b> <br />

He is known as Martanda. In the course of the journey of the year (of 12 months – 12 facets of the chamber), the Aryan Warrior secures a victory. Martanda is connected to the 8</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> stage of that journey, or ‘sacrifice’, as it is known in the Veda. Martanda, legend tells us, is the progenitor of the human race. But if we look more closely we observe that a clue is given in his very name, ‘the dead egg’. In the zodiac this meaning is reinforced because the 8</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> month is Scorpio, the sign of sexuality and death, the sign expressing the implanted atavistic ‘purpose’ of the race of mortals.

This is the transmutation of Mars, or what the energy of Mars signifies in the harmony of the 9 planets plus the Sun. Indeed, the 12-month journey is nothing other than a description of the <i>field</i> for the transformation of mortality to immortality. Martanda, Aditi’s ‘dead egg’ Scorpio son, has to be transformed, transmuted, and the light trapped within the cave has to be released so that the journey is completed victoriously and not arrested at the 8</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> stage of death.</span></span></div>

Since the Mother herself related the 12 walls to the 12 months of the year, we know that the mystery is unravelled on the basis of these Vedic formulas, involving time’s energy and its flow throughout the 365 days of our Earth year; and that it is a cosmic process. Indeed, Mars is <i>born of the Earth</i>, fashioned from the ‘sweat’ of her own hard labour, the Puranas tell us. And so is the tale also told as it is <i>written</i> in the Mother’s chamber, when symbols are <i> seen</i> as the very things symbolised.<br />

It is the same process that is lived by the Earth’s now global civilisation: the transmutation of Mars energy from lead to gold.

That is why his own symbol provides the support for the luminous Globe and was refashioned by the Mother exactly in accordance with his own transformation. Hidden from view he made the conquest. After which, exactly in accordance with his victory, the Mother re-fashioned that sacred symbol. The precision she utilised for this act is the same that was required for the construction of her chamber. But it is clear that <i> knowledge</i> had to be the foundation for that <i>precision</i>. Without the knowledge all the engineering precision in the world could not transcribe her Seeing into its correct forms. This has been proven by the fact that though she enlisted the help of Udar, the Ashram engineer, as she sought to transcribe that precision, she still had to record her wishes in taped conversations so that any mistakes he might have made would be corrected.<br />

This energy must be viewed as an accumulation of disharmonious, misaligned time.

India’s skewed time-axis has thus accumulated tremendous poisonous wastes which the Titans did come to consume in their sacrifice at the service of the One. But if there had not been ‘treasures’ from the churning and only those poisonous fumes, the labour of both Gods and Titans would have borne no fruit at all and the Earth would be doomed. However, these Chronicles testify that both <i>fumes</i> and <i>treasures</i> have arisen <i>simultaneously </i>over these past 33 years. Herein lies the key. But when the time of unveiling arrives, when Vritra is slain and the light of the Sun illumines the darkness, the reign of the Shadow must end. He must abdicate. </span></span></div>

<div align="justify" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">At this point it is well to summarise the position on the ground. What exactly has been lost of the Sacred Vision in what was constructed in Auroville? The 24-metre diameter does not exist; the 15.20m measure of the Ray does not exist; the 15-step entry from below into the floor of the chamber facing north does not exist; Sri Aurobindo’s symbol in the Shalagrama does not ‘exist’; the translucent Globe does not exist; the stone Pedestal does not exist. Is there anything then of gnostic significance and value in the structure? And even if only one or two items of the Vision have survived – such as the 12 columns – the fundamental feature proper to all great sacred art is absent: its unity. In these matters it is all or nothing. Unfortunately, for disciples and devotees of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, they are left with nothing. <br />
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">But the Vision itself lives on; its Knowledge has been revealed and preserved. This is the focus of these Chronicles.<br />
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">One important factor must be borne in mind as we proceed: the descent of the Knowledge of the Mother’s Vision evolved <i>pari passu</i> with the Auroville construction. As one grew the other took shape. This does not mean that both are meant to stand side-by-side, offering forever after a choice to seekers. Yes, in the early stages the two must provide elements for the special Act of Choosing. But once the work is done, once the processes of Yoga are completed to ‘construct’ that Vision in all its gnostic splendour, the Shadow has no longer any reason for being.</span></div>
<div align="justify" style="line-height: 150%;">

This is the meaning of the Churning of the Ocean myth: Time, thus <i>accelerated</i>, gives off wastes; and these must be ‘consumed’ or ‘absorbed’ for the Earth. Until a new balance is reached, the forward drive is not yet in harmony with the alignment of consciousness of the species. More particularly, the new creation, which is to establish this new alignment, is just nearing the point where it can effect that harmonisation so as to avoid a global catastrophe. A signal of this overpowering imbalance due to <i>acceleration</i> is reflected in the ecological crisis the Earth faces. The accumulation of wastes affects all levels of being, down to the physical. On that level too, nothing will effectively change until the consciousness of the species secures this new alignment and balance.<br />
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">The fact that Auroville is the <i>contained field</i> to consume the waste of acceleration does not mean that there are no repercussions beyond when the temple’s measurements are not ‘perfect’, as the <i>Mahamaya</i> exhorts. When imperfect there will be repercussions on whatever is represented in the temple by the application of the Laws of Equivalence and Correspondence. We can demonstrate factually how this works in the Mother’s temple, and in the process reveal the area covered by the Mother’s Vision through these ancient formulations.<br />
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">Thus, as discussed in <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/2012/03/part-viii-vedic-cow-and-horse-in.html">CIC 8</a>, the translucent Globe measures 70cm diameter, which, by the Laws of Correspondence and Equivalence, encompass the total landmass of India as delineated by the nation’s astrological ruler, Capricorn. There has to be consistency in the Knowledge. We have seen how this zodiacal sign and its ruler, Saturn, are manifest throughout the temple. There cannot be a hodgepodge – something plucked from this school, something from another; or else one symbol, then another, and nothing linking the two. Consistency is the keyword. The Mother’s Vision has demonstrated an impeccable consistency: from whichever angle we approach the Knowledge we find the same unity of substance. This is the hallmark of a great revelation of Gnosis. In this Chronicle we will unveil even more astonishing proof of the Mother’s consistency and genius, citing her own words in describing her activities as the Supramental Shakti.<br />
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">In the Auroville Matrimandir the only consistency we find is the consistent lack of any higher content; added to this is the unfortunate fact that the building now standing at the heart of a township purported to be a creation of the Mother’s and the cradle of the Superman, bearing Sri Aurobindo’s name, consistently denies all that the Mother sought to capture in the temple. The Auroville Matrimandir is exactly what the community, the builders, the architects and the governing bodies desired it to be: no knowledge, no higher function and purpose, no truth-conscious unity. In fact, in the language of gnostic symbols, the Auroville Matrimandir is, as reported in CIC 8, a hymn to the Dark Lord.<br />
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">However, this is not a condition limited to Auroville. We find a woeful incompletion stamped on all the remaining parts of the Mother’s work; and if we have discussed the infirmities affecting Auroville in these Chronicles, we have to include the Ashram in our assessment because the two cannot be separated, though we might like to do so. The Mother’s decision to set the township on its way was not born of any mental formula. Like the moment when she redesigned Sri Aurobindo’s symbol, this too corresponded to a special threshold having been crossed in the destiny of the Supramental Manifestation. It was the time to extend the <span style="font-style: italic;">field</span> (the Ashram) because that destiny had matured and the former laboratory could not support the new processes of Yoga that were to follow. This does not mean that the old field would cease to have relevance; it simply means that <b>what it stood for could only find fulfilment when that extension had manifested in perfect synchronicity with Gnostic Time</b>.</span><br />
<div align="justify" style="line-height: 150%;">

But that Bridge did not hold. The crossing could not be made to join the two.<br />
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">Given this fact, we find a very similar situation prevailing today in the Ashram, where the central focus of the community there does not reflect the purpose and goal of the Supramental Manifestation adequately. This is precisely because the Bridge did not come into being between the two fields. Both were stranded, so to speak, on either side of a chasm of Time. We find in the Ashram, therefore, a Samadhi as the focal point of worship and meditation for disciples, devotees and pilgrims. The Divine Incarnations certainly do sanctify the locale with their remains at the place where they lived and opened the path to the new future. But in the gnostic vision of <i>the symbol as the thing symbolised</i>, a tomb is a tomb no matter how sanctified it may be by the enlightened substance it houses. <i>‘Being still the symbol to reach through it the thing that symbolises itself, to realise the symbol, is our fulfilment.’</i><br />
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">Given this statement by Sri Aurobindo in <i>The Life Divine</i>, are we to assume that the ‘symbol’ we are <i>to realise</i> is a tomb, and that this is the future of the new creation? Or is the sacred Samadhi simply a reminder of the path yet to be tread, as Nolini Kanta Gupta stated at the time of the Mother’s passing, to the effect that hers was ‘the old body’, and the ‘new body’ would come? Then there is the more significant question of the relics that are sent out into the world to further cement this symbol-message: dead substances such as nail clippings and hairs of Sri Aurobindo. These are then housed in miniature Samadhis outside the Ashram for devotees to worship. However much we may admire the devotion of devotees farther afield, these structures house dead relics.<br />
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">Certainly if we accept that the Supramental Creation and its special gnosis are unlike anything the Earth has known, then we have to admit that while a Samadhi may be acceptable in all other ashrams as the proper focus for concentration, in Sri Aurobindo’s Ashram it stands as an aberration similar to the cross of Christianity – also a symbol of the victory of Death. Surely when given deep thought the Supramental Manifestation was not destined to follow that old way. What then is the answer?<br />
</span> </div>
<div align="justify" style="line-height: 150%;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">Time had to be fulfilled before anything of that new creation could become established. 1971 was the demarcating threshold; and the key to that new future lay in the Mother’s consciousness. It was the work Sri Aurobindo left for her to complete after his passing.</span></div>
<div align="justify" style="line-height: 150%;">

<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small; font-weight: normal;"><i style="font-family: times new roman;">The Mother’s Vision reveals the new way of the Supermind for this new Age and makes connected sense of all the existing ‘fields’ of the Work</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman";">. But the problem exists that while the Ashram clings to a samadhi as its cherished symbol, in Auroville that revelation was decimated after barely 18 days. And without that Vision the mission of Sri Aurobindo </span><u style="font-family: times new roman;"><i>has no future</i></u>. We must remain content with a tomb on one end and a vacant eulogy to the Dark Lord on the other. In both situations Death triumphs.</span></div>

<div align="justify" style="line-height: 150%;">

This sacred-most point is the great secret of the Core. The Mother has left seekers in search of this Light with all the details of the new Yoga that would safely and surely set us upon that path.<br />

If the Auroville Matrimandir is an aberration, it is a <i>controlled</i> device to serve the divine Purpose of the One. However, only when that Bridge opens up before us and we make the crossing to the new future that the Mother’s Vision foretells, can any sense be made of these aberrations. Without that Bridge illuminating the passage before us, both centres of the Mother’s work are as if orphaned. In the Ashram we have a secure abode of the comforting ‘Mother’ (without the article ‘the’) who pins us to the past. In Auroville we have the chaos that a centreless structure engenders, which cannot support the edifice of a new creation.</span> <br />

This could not be done before the 1960s – perhaps the real beginning was 1956, the year of the Supramental Manifestation. From then on we can turn to Time for indications. As the keeper and fulfiller of Destiny, Time can reveal in a dispassionate and factual manner what nothing else can.<br />
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">When ‘time is fulfilled’ – that is, when a certain maturity is reached in a supramental process – we can begin to measure the process on the backdrop of a specific ‘formula’. <b> This <i>formula</i> is revealed in Sri Aurobindo’s symbol.</b> It is the formula his higher consciousness knew existed but which he laboured in the final years of his life <i>to bring down</i>. As we will observe, Gnostic Time – the utilisation of Time as ally and not destroyer – has been ever present in not only the workings of this particular destiny but in the whole world. However, it is a fact that this very special ‘aid’, as Sri Aurobindo called Time in his <i> The Synthesis of Yoga,</i> can only unveil itself once this maturity is reached. This means that a <i>new</i> base must come into existence, an appropriate <i>horizontal</i> plane. That plane has to be able to sustain or support the Vertical Axis; in this case, that Vertical contains the operations of Time in a gnostic process involving the integrated <i>fields</i> (of the Horizontal).<br />
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">On this basis, considering that the Ashram and Auroville are the fields constituting the horizontal plane, Time can then reveal the function or placement of both once this maturity is reached. Each thing is then seen in its rightful place within the whole. In so doing, the condition of the Mother’s work is made factually clear. Thus, the Ashram in the integrated field is the Past; Auroville (in the same field) is the Future. But they are not connected; hence we have the situation described above with the Ashram closed within the secure castle walls of ‘Mother’ (without the article); while Auroville abides in a chaos of undefined ‘possibilities’ so clearly demonstrated in the centre of its community’s life. Being cut off and without a connecting <i>bridge</i>, the City expresses the void that stands at its centre: no purpose, no higher function, and above all, no focus. That <i>focus</i> is the topic of this and the remaining Chronicles. It cannot be feigned, it cannot be the result of a computer programme, think tank deliberations, the plans and projects of governing boards, and certainly not a result of government policy. <b>It is provided only by the Core of the Mother’s chamber.</b></span></div>

Therefore there is no <i>holding power</i> for the township. In practical terms what this means is that Auroville’s future, disconnected as the township is from that new base, is simply what it is for ordinary humanity: a jumble of possibilities and mostly unrealisable potentials. Today one thread of those multitude of possibilities is taken up, tomorrow another. Having lost its connection to the Ashram at the time it rejected the Mother’s Vision in the 1970s, it could only tumble into the waiting arms of the Government and must abide now by the preferences and goals of political parties. A supramental focus of purpose is lacking whereby no such experimentation with destiny, if it may be so called, takes place. The future would be <i>ordered</i>, made a <i>cosmos</i>, responding to higher laws and patterns of destiny – indeed, the highest known to humanity for many thousands of years. In such a condition there is never any waste and never a residue. This is the application of Supermind in that integrated field.

Boundaries are known and accepted, as in a true <i>cosmos</i>. It can be macrocosmic, like our own solar system. It can be microcosmic, like each individual component within that system. The important factor is that <i>the PERFECT CENTRE exists, the CENTRE THAT HOLDS.</i><br />

It therefore experiences no growth and is unable <i>to apply</i> its store of wisdom, power and experience because that extended field is not integrated into a single unified base where that Past can find its rightful place and contribute to the flowering of the new creation. It is thus trapped in the parameters of the old field, in an incomplete system, prisoner of the old way.<br />

Thus, <i>there is no power of the Present </i>in action in this truncated process, which implies an <i><u>actualising</u> force on Earth.</i> Both communities have rejected that connecting Bridge – the City by rejecting the Mother’s Vision in 1970, and the Ashram by doing the same when in 1978 it rejected the only book in the world where that very Vision and its temple were ‘constructed’ – read, preserved. This was the <u><i> contingency plan</i></u> since the Auroville community had made its choice to adopt the Troika model (see <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/2012/01/part-ii-disfigurement-of-mothers-temple.html">CIC 2</a>). The Mother’s Vision could not be allowed to perish. But the same forces that dismissed her Plan also set upon the Book, undeniably in an affront to Saraswati reminiscent of the Inquisition. To compound the matter, the same press that shredded this already printed Book to pieces, where the only record of the Mother’s sacred Vision and its knowledge content was preserved, readily published the gibberish contained in <i>A House for the Third Millennium,</i> with Lohman’s banal interpretation of inside-outside/upside-down consciousness and fourth dimensional measuring! (See <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/2012/02/part-iv-auroville-builders-trashed.html">CIC 4</a>). Indeed, there was an identical , predictable response to the Vision on both ‘shores of time’.<br />

The topic of that article with this particular dialogue was precisely the question of a ‘bridge’ forming a link. But in that treatment it was from plane to plane, rather than field to field. However, the function of the Bridge is the same in both instances: to apply the laws and principles of Supermind to life on Earth, through the creative activity of the Supramental Shakti. Without that Bridge the reader will note in the following excerpts that no coherency, sense or logic can be made of the Mother’s experience, even though she took such pains to have it recorded in detail. But with the revelations that resulted from the Mother’s ‘sorting out’ process, we are obliged to bow down before her in awe of her extraordinary faculties and the wonder and majesty of it all. Above all, we are ever grateful for having been privileged to bear witness to her extraordinary creative genius.<br />

Having already revealed the role of number, order, precision, to him, and having explicitly stated that this was the action of the Supermind, as the following will reveal, are we wrong in surmising that she believed she had an ally at least in this person? But what a shock lay ahead when not one person came forward and responded to her call. She had to turn elsewhere, to those far-flung corners of the globe that she describes in the following dialogue, to those special people with whom she was already then carrying out that detailed work on a regular basis, beyond the confines of both the Ashram and Auroville.<br />

I was arranging them, I put a group there like this, another one this way [<i>gesture like moving a puzzle</i>], then I would choose. It is curious.

And this force made one act. No, I was seeing, I knew that it was necessary to do that, and I wasn’t thinking at all, but I could explain why. That is, I could say in advance this was for this thing. And it was the combination of those two colours of numbers (perhaps it is a translation of my consciousness, but anyway…), blue and golden numbers. And the priority for action was always with the golden numbers, while the blue ones came as if to fill in the holes. This had form. It had a form. It is strange, it was so natural, so spontaneous, so HABITUAL: there was nothing in the being that remembered with astonishment, that is to say, it did not remember as one remembers a dream or to have done something – nothing of that.

In an astonishing display of APPLICATION, by the new cosmology we are able to link the formula to the calendar; and through this linkage we can connect these special numbers to a series of births; indeed they are thus ‘living’ powers. In the new cosmology there are, in fact, TWO columns that are called LINES. One is described by the Mother as ‘dark blue’, the other as ‘golden yellow’. By making use of colour, the Mother transmitted to Satprem the ‘essence’ of the columns/lines: the former refers to the Lunar Line (the dark blue of night), the latter to the Solar (the golden of the daytime Sun). But we must bear fully in mind that this cosmology was completed a number of years before anything of this dialogue was published. Can there be a better example of her action to ‘sort out the people’ than this?<br />

She even refers to ‘planets’, but true to the subsequent Knowledge, she notes that though there is a connection, she is not so sure how it works. This is because though the Lines are ‘solar’ and ‘lunar’, these celestial designations do not really refer to <i>planetary influences</i> of the old school. They refer to the action of the respective columns/lines: inspirational, actualising; or, as she stated, conceptual and realising. She goes further and states that they do not refer to masculine and feminine – indeed, as one would attribute to the Sun and the Moon respectively in the old school.<br />

Could any sense at all have been made of her words? The disciple certainly did not take her seriously or he would not have dismantled her subsequent vision of the Inner Chamber; nor would he have been able to dismiss ‘centimetres’ and ‘astrology’ so lightly and favour an exaltation of the ego of the instrument, if at all he had REALISED what the Mother was describing. She explicitly stated what her activity was: <b>the action of the Supermind APPLIED through numbers and the ordering process.</b> What more should have been needed?<br />

But let us imagine a different scenario. Let us reverse roles. What if Sri Aurobindo had had the above experience? How would it have been received? We may go further and question, What if the chamber plan had come through Sri Aurobindo? Would his entourage have dared to treat that Vision with the same indifference, disrespect and disbelief that the Mother experienced?

Because of that the Vedic content we are revealing in these Chronicles, and prior to MAC in numerous other publications, would have been upheld as sacrosanct rather than rubbished by disciples who had no preparation whatsoever to deal with numbers and astrology and Vedic sciences. These ‘wisemen’ were quick to trash them all, even when the Mother had placed her full seal and sanction on the connection they bear to the operations of the Superman Consciousness, as explicitly revealed in the above dialogue.<br />

The problem lay in the disciples she was addressing who had their own ideas and preferred to discard hers without making any effort to understand just what this 90-year old Seer was talking about. She was treated as one often finds the aged treated: she was humoured. The result is the centreless Void that stands at the heart of Auroville, and the ‘symbol-goal’ the Ashram offers as the finality of the quest.<br />

Her creation is the only <i>factual</i> example of such cosmic harmonies in art and architecture. There may have been examples in the past; but it is a past so distant that traces of it are found only in myths.

We ‘hear’ <i>through perception</i> – just as the ancient Rishis did; for which reason the word to describe the experience is <i>shruti</i>, or the <i>heard seeing</i>. The music is ‘heard’ through the Act of Seeing. The Shruti of Carnatic music serves to focus perception in the musician so that he or she may have access to that sanctum sanctorum that is the womb of the Cosmic Mother, the pregnant origin of all sound, the sacred Pranav. In the scale of 9 the Mother embodies the number-power 6, which is precisely the ‘note’ of the Cosmic Divine in the 0 to 9 scale of the cosmic harmonies. It is only fitting therefore that she herself should have bequeathed this sublime new musical instrument as her final legacy to human civilisation, with which we can play/hear the ‘music’ of that very cosmic principle she embodied so impeccably.<br />

Ganapathy Stapathy, heir to a 1000 year-old tradition of temple builders in India, has recently spoken of sacred architecture as ‘frozen music’. Indeed, a Hindu temple strives to embody that sublime truth always. But dynamics is the key. Not ‘frozen’ as such but <i>moving</i>, like a carousel which so accurately typifies the Mother’s Vision. She has revealed the way to these dynamics. For to be a true Supramental Creation abstraction and its companion speculation have to give way to <i>the living truth. </i>That LIVING truth implies movement: the truth of that which moves, for movement is the essence of the cosmic manifestation. As instruments for the becoming of that truth in its unfolding superb harmonies, we are privileged to be born on this third planet from the Sun. We are privileged to bear witness to the manifestation of the Mother’s cosmic principle, as it has never before descended on Earth.</span></span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />

For indeed the 9 + 6 refers to a time factor, and time is the property of the vertical. There is the sacred Ray itself: <u>15</u>.20, and the room’s height, <u>15</u>.50; with the remainders 20 + 50 equalling the diameter of the Globe. With this the Core of the chamber connects its essence and power to the world. Without the sacred formula and its physical representatives, the Mother’s room is confined to the subjective experience of one individual or a single community, and limited in operative power to that particular isolated destiny. It cannot <i>exceed</i> those boundaries. This alone would indicate that it is not a creation descending from the Truth-Conscious plane since such a core, lacking the necessary resonance, could not make a connection between the Unity and the Multiplicity. We shall explore the manner in which this process of integration comes about. <br />

When the precision which she demanded is respected, the 70cm globe placed on the 60x50 rectangular pedestal hides exactly 15 of the full 70cm in the Pedestal. These 15 are nestled in the Pedestal. The ‘light’ thus hidden is mingled with the power of the Pedestal. We view those hidden 15 as the residue distilled from the <b>9+6=15</b> of the two whose lives and yogas resulted in this ‘gold’ that is held within the bosom of the third cosmic principle of the Line (the Globe). The alchemy of this joint tapasya resulted in this measurable substance, reflected in the chamber’s core in this special way. In this manner we realise that the Mother’s original plan is a veritable book, a final testament of the stage of the work at the time of her passing – with key elements written into the ‘testament’ that disclose the course the evolution of the Truth-Consciousness on Earth would take. Above all we see that the formula contained in the heart of Sri Aurobindo’s symbol, almost from the beginning of his association with the Mother, bore the 9/6/3 structure that was the formula for the <i>application</i> of the Supermind in the world. It would appear then that the secret was always bared.</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: medium;"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></span></b> <span lang="EN-GB" style="font-weight: bold;"><br />

If the formulas are truly of the Supermind they have to be <u>dynamic</u>; Sri Aurobindo has written extensively on this important feature of the Truth Consciousness. They must be <i>applicable</i> on the basis of an integration of the circumscribing conditions of each moment. Or, as another definition would have it, <i>a centre that holds</i>. This means that if the Mother’s vision is the true divine Measure, it must reveal the ‘truth’ of each moment. While that ‘truth’ may be relative, as perforce it must be at our stage of evolution, the presence in its midst of the perfectly aligned Divine Measure uplifts the relative and draws it into the wider sphere of objective truth. This reveals if the vision is of the higher plane.<br />

For example, the architect’s amendments, improvisations and impositions, made the Auroville Matrimandir a monument in praise of the old creation, but not entirely without ‘purpose’. In the 9 previous Chronicles there were countless disclosures to demonstrate factually how this came to pass. But by far the most important and revealing of all the deviations from the original was the floor diameter measured OUTSIDE the walls, contrary to the express demand of the Divine Shakti that the Inner Chamber’s diameter be 24 metres within the walls.<br />

Probably only a court order for the appointment of a commission to measure the inner chamber would permit the truth to be revealed. Nonetheless, let us take Lohman’s word as fact, given his position in the team, and reveal some remarkable features of the Mother’s Vision in that by ‘measuring up’ to her plan we can know the exact place of the Ignorance as well as the Knowledge in the context of our evolving world. This then will be the best means to demonstrate the very special attributes of the Supermind when the formula is made manifest and operative in the world.<br />

The soul as centre is defined by the Mother’s original plan – the ideal toward which we evolve. In the meantime we must somehow manage to pass through this transitional level and emerge intact, bearing the burden of all that this entails in that we must make this a <i>conscious </i>transition, not a passage in ignorance as in former times before the full manifestation of the Supermind. <br />

All the players in the field of this emerging cosmos, both light and dark, or positive and negative, represent the human condition at its present stage. In this way the cementing of the 23.20m floor diameter is perfectly as it should be to complete the mosaic; or to determine irrefutably that the Auroville Matrimandir is a hymn to the old mortal creation that is on its way to extinction.<br />

23.20 will be recognised in various connected areas as a singular determining factor. To begin, we see this number reflected in the tilt or axial alignment of the Earth herself. Presently that axial inclination stands at 23 degrees, 26 minutes, 20 seconds of celestial longitude, almost exactly the diameter of the Auroville chamber, according to Lohman. <br />

This reveals, among other factors, that the circle of 12 must provide the answers we seek in the Vision. Further, that symbol has a fourfold division of the 12 (<i>Twashtri’s</i> <i>Bowl</i> of the Rig Veda), the four cardinal points or directions which when translated into our year of <i>twelve</i> months are the Equinoxes and Solstices. <br />

That is, the days begin to lengthen for the northern hemisphere. Hence, for as long as we have memory, this special date has been the most sacred because it marks the beginning of the legendary Festival of Light in honour of this Earth experience of increase. Christians later adopted this date into their worship as the birth of the Christ Child because of its traditional importance. The Mother herself continued to honour this special period not as Christmas but openly as the Festival of Light. Astronomically its importance is revealed in that perihelion occurs during the days of the Festival, the Earth’s annual closest approach to the Sun. <br />

The axial tilt also defines the ‘farthest reaches’ of Sri Aurobindo’s own descent. Due to the Earth’s axis alignment the apparent journey of the Sun north of the equator ends at 23 degrees 26 minutes. It is the outer ‘rim’ known as the Tropic of Cancer because the Sun’s position at that northern rim when it appears to stand still (from <i>sistere</i>, to stand still), would be the gateway into the zodiacal sign Cancer.

And once that is done, the rest evolves organically and inevitably. As time moves on from that newly established zero-point, or <i>ayanamsha</i> as it is called in Sanskrit, everything that manifests from that ‘seed’ can only be an extension of its innermost essence.

But to understand the dimensions of the problem we need only apply our 23.20m room diameter to the issue. Interestingly, we discover that this same mis-measure of 23 afflicts contemporary Hindu society as well. In this manner we note that the Auroville Matrimandir is not an embodiment of chaos in and for itself and the community it serves, but its problems are reflected beyond the township’s boundaries.

We have discussed to some extent the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn with regard to the Auroville Matrimandir room diameter of 23.20m in that the same measurement is the Earth’s axial tilt in degrees of celestial longitude. The accuracy required in these higher studies demanded that only one time/calendar measurement be scrupulously determined to allow the system to function. This was (and still is) to determine the shortest day of the year, which is also the beginning of the sign Capricorn in the tropical zodiac. In India it is known as Makar (Capricorn) Sankranti, or the ‘gateway to Capricorn’. Makar, the amphibian crocodile, is India’s equivalent of the Goat with a tail of a fish</span></span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">.</span></span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><sup>4</sup></span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: xx-small;"> </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">There is hardly a person in the nation today who understands the extreme importance of the Makar Sankranti, though it is celebrated throughout the country. In Tamil Nadu it is known as Pongal.

The ‘seed of time’, or the zero point is intended to set the Cosmic/Earth clock ticking in synchronicity with that great Cosmic Harmony of which we are a part. The destiny of our planet is precisely to provide a field for the progressive manifestation of that Harmony, collectively and individually. And India stands at the centre of it all. In other words, India is the geo-cosmological perfectly aligned centre of the planet’s destiny; as well as of our geography. But all this hinges only on Capricorn – her own zodiacal ruler, as accepted by all schools of astrology from ancient times to today. Yet it is in India that not only do we find the new cosmic clock for the new age of Vedic temple art in total disarray (the Auroville Matrimandir), but the very same horizontal mis-measure is carried throughout the nation via the post-Vedic pundits’ fixing of that Capricorn gateway. The Auroville Matrimandir diameter axis is 23m20; the Makar Sankranti is 23+ days late (the plus amount depending on the different schools of thought in contemporary Hindu society, each one suggesting a different measure or <i>ayanamsha</i> since its exact location in the constellations can not be proven scientifically).</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman";"><span lang="EN-GB"> <br />

We would have to be blind not to realise what is happening. When Hindu society leaves this crucial factor of determining the Makar Sankranti to the post-Vedic pundits who have lost the Knowledge due to the split between science and the sacred, what is the result? We have perhaps a dozen zero points <i>(ayanamshas)</i>. No longer is the shortest day of the year the signal that Capricorn opens before us in our calendar/zodiacal time reckoning. Capricorn is now, these pundits inform us, determined exclusively by a ‘fixed’ point in the heavens countless light years away, </span></span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt;">‒</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: small;"> that is, in the circumscribing <u>constellations</u>. This means that for Hindus there is primarily a SIDEREAL ZODIAC to consider, no longer a TROPICAL ZODIAC determined by the Earth’s own sacred measure vis-à-vis the Sun. Hindu society has been carried into the Beyond, like it or not, to heavens up and above which have little or no relation with the Earth, as far as our LIVED and EXPERIENCED measure of time is concerned. This has been the triumph of science and the demise of the sacred on this holiest of Earth soils, which is supposed to be the repository and preserver of the ancient way. Hinduism is thereby following the way of the Middle Eastern religions in positing ‘heaven’ in a beyond to be attained after death, for this is the meaning of the shift from Tropical to Sidereal.</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"> <br />

The manner in which we align society to the cosmos is not by inventing atomic clocks and all the rest of the paraphernalia to measure the day of 24 hours. The ancients knew that a society that lives in harmony with the cosmos – in our terms it would be a planetary society – has to have its ‘clock’ set according to the greater cosmos; or, the Cosmic Truth. Thus, the first step was to find the Earth’s own truth and place within the solar system; and this could be done only by means of the Capricorn/ December Solstice, the shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere. Because of the special place and function of this tenth sign it has been called ‘the Name of God’ by traditions across the globe. Truly this sign, ruler of India, contains the knowledge of all things sacred of the Earth and of the Cosmos. It is the <i>passageway</i> to the realm of the Infinite and the Eternal, a truth preserved for us in the Mahabharat since Bhisma chose this day to embark upon his passage to the higher realm.</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"><br />

The Lost Realisation</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><br />
The Mother incarnated to arrest the decline and reinstate the Divine Measure. The problem is that across the centuries vested interests became established in support of the different erroneous measurements, similar to the vested interests that now guard the Auroville mis-measure. Thus, to do this rectification work is now a labour of truly cosmic proportions. Opposition arises from most unexpected quarters, in one’s own house, so to speak.<br />

But with the failure to keep the REALISATION alive which provided the consciousness-alignment as a prerequisite to the greater harmonisation and integration, a slow and steady degeneration set in: the December Solstice itself became the subject of the divisive consciousness that was soon to overtake the entire globe. This occurred when ‘science’ stepped into the fray and began dictating terms. It was science as a distinct and ‘unsuperstitious’ entity that was going to save humanity from decay and total collapse into irredeemable ignorance. This has been the mantra of Indian civilisation for the past 2000 years, during which time the key to linking the Earth measure to the cosmic clock was lost, or became only a distant memory.<br />

That has been its only available ‘choice’: to serve the Divine Mother positively or via the negative. By building the inner chamber ‘in man’s image’, the choice of the negative instrumentation is exposed.<br />

As demonstrated earlier, the mortal creation is legitimised only on the basis of measuring it up to the Mother’s Vision, the Divine Maya. The members of such a community are thus confronted with the same choice the architect made for the entire community several decades ago and reinforced time and again: the Mother’s luminous vision of Fullness, or the dazzling physical construction as a <i>negative</i> model, a constant reminder of who we are, our alluring sexuality with its consequent mortality, and our divisive, separative consciousness displayed before the world.<br />

There is simply the realisation of ‘each thing in its rightful place’ within the circular wholeness of gnostic time. Compromise is the old way of seeking solutions to preserve the reign of falsehood. Such linear processes inevitably result in collapse; and from that point of disintegration one seeks to rebuild, to ‘begin again, again, again’, as the Mother warned (17.1.1970). This is the fate of Auroville today. Owned as it is by an elected government, spherical processes are impossible. Rule is <i>enforced</i> because there is no infrastructure for a higher process. The entire exercise is determined by what stands at the heart of the project. Being what it is, the ownership by the Government of India makes the Mother’s warning prophetic. One can only ‘begin again’.<br />

The Great Secret</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><br />
The ‘symbol of the future realisation’, as the Mother described the core of her temple’s inner chamber, not only speaks of the things to come but carries us to a past now almost totally forgotten. Hints of this ancient realisation are found in the Rig Veda and we will discuss these key passages further on along with Sri Aurobindo’s commentaries.<br />

These 9 tones or notes (or Chronicles) are time’s pulsation, similar to the 9 pulsations of our Sun in an Earth day of 24 hours (one pulsation every 2 hours and 40 minutes). Each ‘tone’ has contributed its particular resonance to the process MAC is developing through these Chronicles; each one represented a ‘peeling off’ of the veils covering the true Vision, those obscuring veils that have withheld the Mother’s light from sincere seekers. But once the 9 ‘tones’ are struck – in this case the 9 Chronicles – something important, fundamental occurs. The true seeker of the Supramental Light experiences the fullest extent of an inward thrust: <i>contraction</i> has reached its extreme and compels this plunge. Carried into those innermost, deepest recesses of Being by a supreme concentration of power – just as the Mother anticipated her chamber would induce – the aspirant finds the sacred passageway by which the <b>9 becomes the 10</b><i>.<br />

At the exact centre of the Pedestal in the chamber’s Core there is the Supreme Power Point. It is the Truth-Consciousness ‘seed’ lodged at the perfect centre of each created thing. One can visualise it as the immobile centre in the midst of a whirling tornado. This is the soul’s magnetic charge which assures us of a complete divinisation of life on Earth; or indeed of the entire universe. This magnetic Point is what holds the universe together and does not allow creation to disintegrate or to experience total destruction or disintegration.<br />

This results in 378 days (or 378 years). Saturn is the overseeing planet in the equation, fittingly honoured by the Mother in that <b>378 days is precisely the synodic ‘year’ of Saturn</b>. And so, however we analyse the numbers and diagrams/designs, we ‘see’ Saturn; we ‘see’ 9/5/1; we ‘see’ 1950; we ‘see’ Sri Aurobindo’s passing; and we ‘see’ his return 13 years thereafter – <b>the exact base of the Pedestal minus 9 days</b>. That is, 26 November or Immortality Day, the precise mid-point between 17 November (the Mother’s passing) and 5 December (Sri Aurobindo’s). 26 November was named Immortality Day long before either event took place. It was a prophecy based on the Supramental <i>trikaladrishti</i> – the seeing of the three times, past, present, future. Already in 1926 the date was rendered sacred. It was actualised decades later when Sri Aurobindo would return on that date precisely on the basis of the supramental formula contained in the Pedestal of the Chamber where that formula is immortalised in stone.

Thus, the formula too was already known even before it was fulfilled in Earth time and revealed. Below is a reproduction of the Symbol as revised by the Mother on 6 May 1964, precisely six months <i>after</i> Sri Aurobindo had indeed ‘remade’ himself. (A second official drawing was issued an exact 9 years and 3 days later, 9.5.1973, giving more details of the proportions and the precise petals, leaves and waves.) The new symbol with respect to the old discloses the supramental process he experienced during those occulted 13 years.

This is what it brings to creation, and because of which it can divinise the Earth according to its ‘formula’. Sri Aurobindo made this abundantly clear in his numerous letters to disciples. And to ‘see’ this dynamism, to remove abstraction from the exercise, we need to set the formula rolling as it were. We need to add the ingredient of <i>motion.</i> This is accomplished with the aid of Time – for which reason Sri Aurobindo listed Time as the fourth and final aid in the yoga (see <i>The Synthesis of Yoga</i>, Part I, ‘The Four Aids’<i>)</i>, without which the others would be ineffective.<br />

These are ‘seen’ as descending or <i>vertical</i>. But then there are the Divine Waters in which the Lotus arises, its ‘field’ as it were. The waves are <i>seven</i> as designed by the Mother. For the layman they are the planes of consciousness. But to ‘one who sees’, to one who knows the secrets of these arcane mysteries and the value of symbols, the seven are not just 7.

The Zero (seed-essence of the compacted 9/6/3) gives forth the One. This One is the first point of space (horizontal), i.e., there are three dimensions of Time whose fourth dimension is the point of space, the One.

This design is not the invention of MAC or anyone other than the Mother herself. But when the veils are lifted as we have done in these Chronicles, none can deny what the symbols reveal. All things are made new with this new Seeing, this new perceptive capacity that Supermind has brought to the world. For that is the purpose of the descent of the Temple where the details of the coming are written. There are vested interests to contend with, those who must at all costs keep this great Secret forever sealed. With this in mind, what can be ‘read’ in the Auroville centrepiece? What sense can be made of its see-through wrought iron stand holding an empty, transparent and dark crystal, nothing of which was ‘seen’ by the Mother? What ‘message’ does it give to the world?</span></span></div>

The eternal element resides in the fact that this sacred alphabet has been with us for as long as the Earth has memory.

Indeed, without an understanding of this Script, exactly as it has come down to us across the ages, little <i>cosmic</i> sense can be made of the text. In fact, this is the position today. Disconnection from the eternal script is so total that even when the evidence of its presence in the text is unquestionably established, scholars refuse to accept the facts. We are a civilisation totally cut off from the Cosmic Womb. We may explore space, we may send robots to Mars in a dazzling display of our technological triumphs, but without that Language and its connectedness, the oneness it fosters in our consciousness, these exploits are meaningless. Or rather, they bear no intrinsic <i> purpose</i> that helps us understand why we are here on this third planet from the Sun, and, above all, where evolution is taking us. Perhaps the only time the Earth has been so totally cut off from the family she is a part of is now. Our recorded history provides the proof.<br />

The preservation of this particular section of the 12-part zodiac has always been prominent for Initiates because of the singular importance their respective astrological ages indicate for the Earth. When evolution takes us through one of these four Ages we know that it is a period of great moment. Our present Age of Aquarius is one such moment. It is the Man of St John’s vision and the Man of the Giza Sphinx. Both have used the same cosmic script.<br />

The very same eternal and universal language was employed by the Rishi when he chanted praises to precisely the Preserver Vishnu and in the very same order as they appear in John’s verse. Vishnu Trivikrama ‘measures’ the universe <i>in three strides</i>: Lion (Leo), Bull (Taurus), Friend (Aquarius); his final stride of the three is known in astrological lore as the sign of the Friend, just as the Rishi recorded. But though the connection is unmistakable there is not one scholar or realiser in India or beyond who knows this language to the extent that he can understand the Rishi’s words. For India that Vedic eternal language simply does not exist in the Rig Veda. Rather, it is thought to have been brought to India many centuries later by the Greeks. Hence India has lost all connection with the cosmic surround and therefore with her own destiny as it has been recorded in that ancient Script.<br />

She described not only the ‘beautiful strange being’ with superb accuracy, particularly emphasising that ‘…the <i>front</i> form was a lion and <i>behind</i> it was a horse’ to make the message unmistakable, but she states that it came ‘to announce something’. Moreover, that it was Sri Aurobindo himself who was conveying the message, using this very same eternal language the Rishis of old had used. Knowledge of gnostic symbols indeed confirms the accuracy of the Mother’s vision because this ‘sphinx’ holds the message of Sri Aurobindo’s <b><i>two connected appearances</i></b> <b><i>on Earth</i></b>: the first (front form) in the zodiacal sign of the Lion (Leo), and the second (behind) in the sign of the Horse, Sagittarius.<br />

The meaning is that births in these signs, though separated by 12 years and 356 days, correspond to one manifestation: the 9 becoming the 10 in a connected process. It was not just a lion making a round of the disciple followed by a prancing horse. It was a composite, single being – the two as one. This is what conveys to the Initiate the <i>gnostic</i> content of the vision because in this simple image with its unassuming display of connectedness we have the greatest secret of the Supramental Manifestation preserved in the Mother’s own words.<br />

We realise that had things been organised differently, had the Mother collected around herself beings of a higher degree of initiation into these Mysteries, the history of the Supramental Manifestation would have been quite different over these brief three decades, during which time so much damage has been done to the Master’s work. To begin, the Temple would stand today as <i>her</i> vision based on <i>her</i> precise plan, and not the shadow of it that has been constructed in Auroville and passed off as hers. </span><br />

She spoke of this newness on several occasions prior to her vision of the inner chamber and it was with that <i>seeing</i> that the work was completed. Above all, its accompanying plan and the relevant corrective discussions that followed carry us into a world entirely unknown to science of any branch. It was known 12,000 years ago and during the intervening millennia India has stood as the sole nation in the world that seeks to preserve at least a part of that tradition. India was preserving a knowledge that would be resuscitated down the line of time exactly as it was known in those remote ages. India would play out the mystery of the Sphinx together with Egypt.

This is not speculation or fantasy. Indeed, those ancient Divine Architects purposefully left proof of that former precision so that in India the connected work indicated in the Sphinx could be accomplished. The secrets of material science in those remote ages did not require monuments of such gigantic dimensions. Their accuracy was a simple question of proportions: the structures could be any size if two items were incorporated properly – precise proportions and correct alignment. We have the proof today in that a razor blade placed at a precise location in a tiny reproduction of the Great Pyramid’s proportions will sharpen itself.

A group of Japanese scientists were the last to attempt the feat, but they too failed, as have all others before them. The Initiates of pre-pharaonic Egypt were able to manipulate matter in such a way that massive stone blocks were fitted in the structure with immaculate precision, up to the very tip of this enormous structure taller than a 40-story building, comprised of over 2,300,000 blocks of stone weighing up to 200 tonnes each </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">–</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> and some even heavier. In addition, the entire edifice was faced with granite slabs of equal weight placed together with such precision that a thin knife could not be inserted between slabs. No mortar was required. Were they chiselled into shape? At a time when there should not have been tools appropriate for such a task? The answer has eluded researchers. Moreover, these slab facings were polished to a degree unattainable today. We only know that a special precision was utilised, or tools of precision, if you will, of a sort unknown to us today in spite of our dazzling technology that can carry robots to Mars. We can send spacecraft to the Moon and to Mars, yet we cannot duplicate what stands before our eyes on the Giza plateau.<br />

<span lang="EN-GB">Let us examine the question of alignment, and this will bring us to India’s role. Researchers are aware that the Great Pyramid is perfectly aligned to the four quarters – similar to Hindu Temples. Regarding the Great Pyramid the alignment is astronomically precise to an unparalleled degree. But the point that perplexes researchers is why such an effort would be made to secure this Cardinal Pole alignment. To accomplish the task today it is recognised that the astronomical effort (quite literally) would be too costly to undertake; more particularly, what would be the point? The scientist of today does not understand why alignment of this sort would be required. And without a practical purpose or application, why invest? What ‘returns’ could be expected? Our world does not permit non-applicable science, however marvellous it may be. Science must be geared to an ultimate utilisation, be it war or peace, be it theoretical or technological.<br />

Then the <i>purpose</i> of the pre-pharaonic Egyptian contribution becomes clear. We discover a very different consciousness at work – indeed, involving a <i>new precision</i>, one of Space, the other of Time. And both are linked. Without the Mother’s plan and what is recorded in these Chronicles, the Egyptian conquest would have been in vain. The answer to the riddle of the Sphinx lies in the revelation of this great mystery.<br />

Its <i>core</i> no longer exists. Alignment remains and something of the larger configurations of its mass, but certain key elements that activate the structure are missing. One is the apex pyramid at the tip, proportionate to the whole; the other is the contents of the now empty rectangular box in what we refer to as the King’s Chamber. Apart from these there are other important items without which the purpose of the structure cannot be fulfilled. Indeed, its purpose IS being fulfilled by the fact that it has endured so that the connection can be made with the Mother’s work in no uncertain terms, just as these Chronicles reveal. In a sense we could consider the Mother’s Egyptian ancestry in this lifetime to have been vindicated by her gift to humanity in a direct line across the ages to pre-pharaonic Egypt. </span></span></div>

Globalisation is not merely a word reserved for economic policies. It covers a broader spectrum. But even the totality of the Earth is not covered by the sense and purpose of the Aquarius ideal. Cosmicisation is required. The <i> universal</i> uplifting implies what the ancients knew and which must be reinstated: the Earth must find her place within the cosmic family she is a part of; indeed, she occupies a privileged place in this solar system of 9 + 1. It is only on this third planet from the Sun that the Supramental Manifestation can take place, or that the Line of Ten Avatars, Vishnu’s emanations, can make their periodic appearance. For the Manifestation to be complete, this very understanding must be the foundation of the new ‘global’ consciousness. Therefore the Sphinx and the Great Pyramid, together with their other companions on the Egyptian sands, preserve the Eternal Script that alone can allow for two functions: one is to be conscious participants in the establishment of the Supermind on Earth, and the other is to preserve the key to the time factor, to the great moment when the Earth and her evolving species cross a determined and very special threshold of the Precession of the Equinoxes and move into the Age of Aquarius as the Sphinx prophesied many thousands of years ago, that ‘highest stride’ of Vishnu Trivikrama.<br />

In this process the Auroville fiasco has been central. Without the usurpers, without their denial and recalcitrant, sheer ignorance and rejection of the Light, these Chronicles, for one, would never have come into being.

It is epitomised in a tiny pyramid of proportions equal to the whole; similar – nay, identical – to the lost pyramidal apex that once crowned the Great Pyramid. In the core of the Mother’s chamber, in the sacred pedestal consisting of Sri Aurobindo’s symbol which in turn is of the same proportions as the Giza Pyramid, there are 2.5cms which extend beyond the top of the stone pedestal.</span></span><br />

But these 2.5cms are again divided into two parts.

Sri Aurobindo’s 5mm number-power is found right where it should be to equal the lost apex of the Great Pyramid at Giza – the topmost tip of equal proportions to the whole.

With time we are dealing with <i>the other side</i>, as it were, before the event horizon, pre-‘big bang’ or whatever, pre-space, or before compacted, compressed Time gave birth to the One, or the point of space. In Egypt the principle or the cosmic direction in operation was <i>expansion</i>, proper to space. In the Mother’s plan the direction is <i>contraction</i>, proper to time. Contraction in turn is necessarily linked to gravity. Perhaps for this reason secular science has not cracked the gravity conundrum as yet and cosmologists pin their hopes on discovering the theory that unifies everything for a breakthrough in precisely the question of gravity’s function. Hence the discovery of the exact <i>mass</i> in the universe is a burning question. Indeed, we are so much in the thickest darkness that in spite of our dazzling technology and mental prowess in mathematics, <b>96% of that mass is unknown, unaccounted for,</b> and is thus called ‘dark matter’.

<span lang="EN-GB">The pre-pharaonic Egyptians understood the question of <i>mass</i>. The Great Pyramid provides the proof. Science has not addressed this aspect of the colossus yet, mainly because it still refuses to accept that its builders possessed a science and technology far beyond ours. It is impossible, they sustain, and therefore they refuse to look at it, in spite of the ground reality.<br />

But there is more, and this involves alignment and the <i>core</i>, which in turn are provided by shafts of great precision traversing the Pyramid, and the chambers at specific locations and of specific dimensions. All of this has been executed with a precision completely unparalleled and unrealisable by us today. Above all, we have no idea why such a phenomenal effort would have consumed an entire civilisation. The answer lies in the question of alignment indeed, but not just for Egypt. It involves the Earth’s axis itself; spatial however, unlike the Mother’s chamber where it is a question of time axial alignment as these Chronicles demonstrate and true to the Rig Veda heritage.<br />
</span></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">The <i>mass</i>, <i>proportions</i> and <i>design</i> of the Great Pyramid brought about a ‘shifting of the poles’, as it were. To be more accurate, it was a balancing factor, a compensation, if you will. For example, while the 5 days over the 360 of the perfect circle have to be accommodated in the Mother’s core, so too in the Great Pyramid the <i>spatial</i> equivalent needed to be factored. It is similar to a weight placed at a particular point in a rolling sphere so that a determined course and rotation could be attained and maintained. Knowledge of the secrets of mass and proportion provided those hallowed Initiates with the means to ‘conquer space’. In the Mother’s chamber the element we deal with is time. Thus the precision demanded now, similar to the construction of the Great Pyramid, involves the correct measurements of the chamber and, above all, the correct dimensions of the globe and pedestal and their location beneath the descending solar ray. In both instances a ‘rectification’ of a certain imbalance is the issue. The Earth is sacred within the solar system because she houses an evolving species which can ponder these mysteries and serve as <i>conscious</i> instruments for this ‘correction process’, with all that it signifies. At no other place in our System is this operation possible. </span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB">This is the goal of the <i>concentration</i> the Mother referred to as central to the experience her Vision would provide. It is similarly a question of alignment. The aspirant must attain in his or her consciousness-being the very same alignment the ray, globe and pedestal express – for which reason the Mother referred to that marvel of geometry and form as ‘the symbol of the future realisation’. For this he/she must engage the assistance of Time, the fourth and final aid of the Yoga, as Sri Aurobindo has stated. The process requires a time-alignment but it has become entirely impossible in India at present, with its 23-day late Makar Sankranti. Therefore the Mother took birth of Egyptian ancestry, so that she could provide the terms for a rectification process that would carry India to a fulfilment of her true <i>Vedic</i> destiny. Not the illusory dreams of becoming a ‘superpower’, economic or otherwise. India has a unique role to play, one that only she can fill, indeed a <i>central</i> role – for it is precisely that of <b><i>centre</i></b>. In this alone lies her destiny and fulfilment. Until she corrects the time factor as the Mother’s chamber indicates, that centre remains a void which usurpers can fill. She has no one to blame but herself. She has allowed for the confusion; she alone can bring it to an end.<br />

This will be the solid foundation of the field and the community of individuals throughout the world who are attached to that hallowed Point. For the crucial element that holds the circumference of individual lights to itself is the properly aligned <i>centre</i> of perfect measure and form. With that in place the life of the individual elements that populate this emerging cosmos is governed by the higher laws which the new Gnosis establishes.

They are held to the Centre by the magnetic power of the Soul that it is, and magnified a thousand times by the proportions of its design and by the new alignment it embodies. The Centre IS that Soul, but by virtue of the new precision which alone can bring a true Soul into being via sacred geometry. This lies far beyond any individual’s capabilities, or any group of individuals; and in this instance it is achieved through the Supramental Descent, the line of beings descended from the Sun, as it were, those who bring with them the solar Gnosis upon which the new city-consciousness is founded.<br />

Again we may refer to our circle for a better understanding of that difference. In the former we have the same circle of individual lights, as it were, in orbit of a <i>centre</i>. Before the work had matured that Centre was provided by Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. They alone served as the magnetic holding element. Sadhaks orbited this sacred Pair in a relation of point-to-centre exclusively. That was the extent of what was possible in that field.<br />

Yet this is precisely what happened, though he was very clear on this point. It is because time had not<i> ripened </i>to permit the new alchemy.<i> </i>In a word, <i>the time had not come</i>. Then on 29 February 1956, these were the very words the Mother <i> heard</i> at the moment of the Supramental Manifestation: <i>‘The time has come.’</i> Indeed, from that moment onward a true newness came into being which could not be accommodated in the old field (the Ashram). This was the origin of the City, for that describes the <i>new field</i>: a City-Consciousness. During the period of Sri Aurobindo’s first appearance, the ‘boundaries’ imposed on him by the Time-Spirit would not allow for anything other than a field that could accommodate the Integral Yoga. That was the <i>first foundation</i>. Though he knew it was not the ultimate of his vision, he nonetheless remained within that boundary until ‘the time had come’. But this required a withdrawal from this plane, followed by his return according to a supramental process of clearly defined Laws.<br />

There had to be an expansion that would accommodate a significant increase of energies for the new processes that were to manifest, a symbolic ‘city’. These would be global; they would have a universal application. The only such universality that issued from the First Field was from the consciousness-beings of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother themselves. The collectivity that surrounded them was necessary for amassing energies to permit the functioning of the Integral Yoga, the entire focus of the Work at that time.<br />

In a sense we could state that the process then became <b>multi-dimensional</b>. It is also point-to-centre as in the first field, but there is an additional <i> harmony between the individual points on the circumference</i>. In our circle demonstration it would be 1) point-to-centre, 2) points among themselves, and finally 3) that <i>collective</i> harmony as an INTEGRATED WHOLE in relation to the Centre. These are the parameters of the new Supramental Yoga as expressed through the City-Consciousness. All three activities must find an accommodation in the new field. Therefore there must be an extended Boundary that will allow for the right increase of energies to permit this extension, or the expansion of the original boundary. Nothing of this wider operation is possible unless certain <i>energies</i> are added to the alchemy represented in the gnostic symbolism of the City.<br />

<span lang="EN-GB">Truly there are no mysteries when the veils of our unconsciousness are drawn aside. The accomplishments of the pre-pharaonic Egyptians are superbly clear in the monuments those Initiates left for us to piece together. With the veils drawn aside it becomes evident that India and Egypt have followed a similar trajectory covering thousands of years. But while the Egyptian effort appears to have reached a <i> cul-de-sac</i>, India somehow managed to carry the torch forward into our times when the Mother’s temple would descend to make cosmic sense of it all.<br />

Some are inclined to view the Egypt of that period as approaching an apotheosis rather than the beginning of a decline. But Pharaonic Egypt was a distant relative of the civilisation that left us the Sphinx and the Giza Pyramids. The latter was preoccupied with pure geometry – i.e., sacred proportion and alignment. No embellishment was needed to carry out the alchemy. But with the Pharaonic period of our recorded history, the position was significantly altered. The Valley of Kings with its magnificent temples, for example, reveals the shift that overtook the earlier civilisation. It is the very same shift, or slumber if you will, that overtook Vedic civilisation. Something of the former times remains, but not quite the same.</span></span></div>

And they grew in size and grandeur to the monuments we know today. This was a necessary subterfuge when the Knowledge was forced underground. But it was nonetheless a diminishing: while the outer form increased and became more elaborate, the <i>essence</i>, the <i>knowledge</i> went ever deeper under the coverings that slumber provided. However, certain aspects were preserved. In analysing them we can now discuss in greater depth the joint contribution of these two great civilisations. For example, the question of <i>spatial conquest</i> is revealed as central to the pre-pharaonic civilisation of Egypt in every aspect of their extant monuments. But to better appreciate the relationship we must see this spatial obsession in relation to its true sense which is a cosmic <i>direction</i> – i.e., EXPANSION. Thus, the very massiveness of all Egyptian structures, starting with the Sphinx and Pyramids of Giza down to the later Pharaonic temples and tombs, indicate that they were consumed with an obsession to somehow leave an <i>imprinting</i> involving the spatial conquest; or better, to fulfil a destined purpose as a civilisation involving the principle of <i>expansion</i>. Ancient Egypt thus fulfilled its part of the bargain which the Sphinx was prophesying – the Lion half.<br />

Egypt displayed its spatial obsession through the massive structures it bequeathed to human civilisation. Nothing in those extant monuments encourages the psychic experience so central to every Hindu Temple. In the latter there is a compelling, irresistible <i>contraction</i> that forces the seeker into his/her innermost central space in an interiorising drive into the soul. And this is fully expressed in all Hindu structures. Whereas in any Egyptian monument the exact opposite is experienced: the aspirant is <i>cosmicised</i> by the sheer grandeur of their proportions, and, above all, their alignment.<br />

In Egypt cosmic transcendence was never the issue as it is in Buddhism; or else what we find in the later orthodox religions of the Age of Pisces when otherworldliness and heavens after death became the sole focus of worship. Pre-pharaonic Egypt was not obsessed with transcendence but with the cosmic direction it was called upon to establish on Earth: <i>expansion</i>. It did not seek to obliterate cosmic existence but to find a harmony with and within the material universe.<br />

<span lang="EN-GB">There was a discontinuity between pre-pharaonic Egypt and the later Pharaonic period; an unaccounted-for gap of several thousand years exists. During that time fragments of earlier accomplishments are found here and there across the globe, in very ancient Peru and Bolivia, for example, seat of the Incan ‘descendants of the Sun’, and then in the Vedic Age. India did not experience a gap as such, though the actual origins of her Vedic knowledge are lost to us, as demonstrated by the Capricorn symbol-map. We see the development from a certain point in history rather clearly. We move from the Vedic Age, as recorded in the Veda, to the Puranic period when the Knowledge was forced underground. In between, the description of a dilution, if it may be so called, is mirrored in the successive Upanishads. The early texts are closer to the Vedic Source; but then there is a distancing as otherworldliness began to encroach upon the Earth-oriented realisation of the ancient Rishis. It is a very different culture that we observe in the subcontinent in Medieval India.<br />

Moreover, it was in 10,500 BCE that a perfect overhead alignment would have last occurred with those distant stars. And in this manner the ancients also provided us with the means to locate the time of their creation: 12,000 years ago, or in the astrological Age of Leo, just as the hallowed Sphinx announces.<br />

The example we provide is from a portion of the 13</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> volume of <i>The Mother’s Agenda</i>, page 177 of the English version, and page 267 of the original French.</span> A brief background should be given beforehand to enhance the impact of the Mother’s words. It should be noted that the basis of the Knowledge brought down by the Mother and contained in the original vision and plan of her Inner Chamber was revealed through the properties of a Name. This was in ancient Greek and its numerical equivalent is 9, 5, 1. With this Name, given a year before the Mother’s comments that we reproduce, the answers were provided to the questions she raised. The reader must note that the Name is not <i>just a name</i>. It corresponds to the circle of 12 zodiacal signs, or else to the 12-sided chamber of the Mother’s original plan. That is, when these numbers are superimposed on the circle divided into <i>twelve parts</i> (the zodiac), they coincide with the three Fire signs, - Aries, Leo and Sagittarius, the 1</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>st</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">, the 5</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">, and the 9</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span>.<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> </span></span><br />

With it we can decipher the enigmas of the astrological ages through the Map of the 12 Manifestations, reproduced below. Its validity was later confirmed by the Veda when verses in the Atharvaveda were discovered that fit the description of this special key. And with it we learn that the questions the Mother posed in 1972 have indeed been answered, but in a manner she would never have imagined possible. For it is only with the final piece of the puzzle which she herself provided, the inner chamber, that the prophecy of an unending manifestation, of a <i>universe of equilibrium</i>, could be actualised. Before that, similar to what we have written above, what Theon proclaimed, her teacher in the early part of the 20</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> Century, could not come to pass. The intuited <i>equilibrium</i> was a cosmic necessity, but it required the Mother’s revelation, the subsequent supramental descent and the yoga that it inspired to make his perception a reality of our times.</span></span></div>

However, that was only half of the process; the remainder neither the Mother nor Theon knew of at the time. Almost an entire century would elapse before the knowledge would be complete; and more interestingly, it would all hinge on the Mother’s own revelation.<br />

The questions the Mother posed are answered by these Chronicles and related publications. The pre-pharaonic Egyptians were engaged in this pursuit, like the contemporary companions of the Mother through her ‘sorting out process’ have been, in her remarkable contribution to the alchemy. The readers of these Chronicles must appreciate that involvement with the Mother’s chamber for the past 33 years bears this singular accomplishment at its heart. The distortion of the Vision, the disfigurement of her original Plan in Auroville furthers the tilt to Pralaya; it does nothing to further the eternal Equilibrium promised by the Supramental Descent. And we have the Mother’s own words and her original plan to vindicate our dedication.<br />

There now exists a core of individuals worldwide who further that Vision. The physical Auroville construction, unrelated to her Vision except by the shadow it casts, is left to its own devices, to reap the choice the community and builders there have sown. </span></span></div>

…It is something that we are searching for. Perhaps not merely
searching for, but <i> building</i>.<br />
We are being used so that we may
participate in the manifestation of that which is as yet inconceivable
for everyone, because it is not yet there. It is an expression that is
yet to come.<br />
…These positions, the spiritual and the
‘materialist’…are insufficient, not only because they do not admit each
other, but because even admitting the two and uniting the two does not
suffice to solve the problem. There is something else – a third thing
which is not the result of these two, but something that is yet to be
discovered, which will probably open the door to the total Knowledge.<br />
…I do not think that a single individual (on earth

world, change the creation as it is and realise the Higher Truth that
will be a new world, a world more true, if not absolutely true. It
seems certain that a number of individuals (till now it appears to be
rather in time, as a succession, but it may also be in space, a
collectivity) is indispensable so that this Truth may concretise and
realise itself.<br />
I am practically sure of it.<br />
That is to say, however great, however conscious,
however powerful an Avatar may be, he cannot, all alone realise the
supramental life on earth. It is either a group in time, arranged in a
file in time or a group spread over a space – perhaps both – that are
indispensable for the realisation. I am convinced of it.

future realisation’ is the foundation of the New Way; and this is that
‘third thing’ the Mother refers to in the above dialogue. The Mother’s
legacy provides all sincere seekers with every detail required to make
participation in the establishment of the new supramental creation on
Earth a <i>conscious</i> one, since this is the active ingredient
without which the required <i>centering</i> and its companion<i>
alignment</i> cannot come about. In the Atharvaveda there are important
verses that provide a clue to the deeper purpose involved in the
‘future realisation’, which once occupied a foremost place in the
Knowledge but has long since become just a distant memory, if anything
remains of it at all.

these Chronicles it is hard to imagine what real and non-speculative
sense could be made of these verses. Yet with Saraswati’s grace we
have been able to uncover dimensions of the Veda similar to her own
unveiling through satellite images in the mid-1980s, contiguous
indeed with the yogic realisation of Skambha itself. And thus the
ancient way is renewed, re-established in the midst of ‘all that
moves and breathes’. That is, never denying the Becoming but through
and by the passage of time, Skambha is set in place as the <i>centre</i>.
It <i>holds</i>, it creates <i>order</i> of everything ‘that moves

For several millennia we have had to tolerate a denial of that
sacred Becoming in attendance of the Supramental Manifestation that
could reinstate the way of the Ancient Ones within the context of
our evolving world. In the Auroville Matrimandir we encounter a
similar denial – nay, the epitome of that negation. We see emptiness
instead of fullness; we see falsehood instead of truth by virtue of
the fact that emptiness – <i>shunya</i> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">–</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> can never lead to Skambha
and the Cosmic Truth. And without the realisation ‘that fills the
void’, all that is un-Vedic triumphs and continues to subjugate the
land where <i>Purnata</i> was that Cosmic Pillar, the ‘support’ of
all the worlds, of all that ‘moves and breathes’. This is the Core’s

Cosmic, Individual as the great secret of our evolving world which

not the dissolution of <i>nirvana</i>, which demands a severance and
a denial of all that the soul knows to be true and eternal; indeed,
a camouflaged denial of the Transcendent itself. The word in the
supramental realisation is <i>integration</i>, each thing in its
place so that ‘all that moves and breathes’ can indeed be <i>set

solve the paradoxes of our world. It brings into our conscious
experience the Beyond which until now the human species has only
been capable of knowing after death; or else by extending one’s
consciousness to its extreme limits. And thus one returns to life on
this planet again in a state of unknowing. One begins again the
journey of life seeking to recapture that knowledge of the ‘hidden
secret’. Our entire existence is a pursuit of that secret – for the
most part without any awareness that we are seeking at all, much
less what the nature of that pursuit is and its goal.<br />

The question to ask is, why was the direction changed? What caused
such a complete shift in our collective consciousness so that the
only reality for us is death and devastation? Several millennia ago
the soul was denied, the nexus holding our consciousness centred in
our world of time and space. In a word, the soul is the ‘hidden
secret’ of the Mother’s chamber because it is the <i>stable constant</i>
which permits us to experience the truth of that which moves. When
that high Truth became synonymous with all that is impermanent and
hence ‘unreal’, it was the demise of the way of the soul, of the
inward plunge to a Point where the Immanent One is lodged in the
‘cave’ of each individual seeker. It was the beginning of a long and
deep slumber for India, as well as for the rest of the world; or in
the language of the Greek myth, it was the rape of Persephone and
her imprisonment in the Underworld of Pluto. When we enter the true
Chamber in the ‘creative zone of the physical’, as yet one dimension
removed from our world, we <i>see the Daughter</i>, the third
principle which is the Soul, a vision that was kept alive in the
Eleusinian Mysteries until 396 AD. But so total has been the
rejection of this third element<i> </i>in today’s Supramental
Descent that nothing of the Mother’s Vision could find acceptance
here below. Our world is a vast denial of all that the incarnate
Soul stands for </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB">–</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> just as the Mother’s own vision was denied its
descent into our world of <i>measure</i>, of <i>time</i> and of <i>
space</i>. And if we cannot live the experience of the soul, this
third planet has no further purpose in our solar system. Life
evolves in this special location so that the experience can be
conscious and the bliss the soul engenders can permeate our
consciousness unhindered.</span></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

The Mother has been very clear about the work she carried out since
1956; or rather, what was entrusted to her care. There were certain
boundaries to be respected that she described from time to time
after 1956. Those boundaries kept her engaged in a labour ‘on the
other side’, in the subtle dimensions though very close to the
Earth. But still not <i>here</i>, which means that it was not yet
rooted in this special act of Becoming. Apart from the dialogue
quoted at the top of this Chronicle, there is another that draws our
attention to the ‘boundaries’ when Supermind becomes active and
creates its own conditions of manifestation. This was her 3 February
1958 description of precisely the work she was doing ‘on the other
side’. In that dimension her experience took the form of a ship. It
was in a supramental plane but she was very clear that there was a
‘missing link’ with the physical Earth. A ‘bridge’ had yet to be
constructed linking these dimensions so that the Truth-Consciousness
could become established here. <i>‘When I came back, simultaneously
with the recollection of the experience I knew that the supramental
world is permanent, that my presence there is permanent, and that <b>
only a missing link was necessary for the connection to be made in
the consciousness and the substance, and it is this link which is
now being forged…’</b></i><b> </b>(Emphasis ours.)<br />

and measure become active ingredients. That is the method of <i>
rooting</i> the Supermind in the Earth; and it is the only means. In
other words, the Divine Measure has to be re-established so that
what the Mother accomplished ‘up above’ can be brought down into
what she called an ‘intermediate zone’ (the Bridge); the Mother was
well aware of the fact that this was the ‘missing link’. And
moreover, she understood that one Avatar would not suffice and that
a ‘line in time’ was required; and perhaps in space as well. Indeed,
the Bridge does cover spatial dimensions that could not be traversed
without the powers ‘from below’. Supermind creates its own
conditions of manifestation and it has done so impeccably for the
Solar and Lunar Lines. No area of the labour has been left
unattended because the four planes of existence must be covered. In
fact, it is when the fourth plane needs to be integrated – the work
of our own times – that all the threads can be pulled together and
the ‘total Knowledge’, as the Mother intuited, can be given out.
Before all four became active it was not possible.<br />

in the Solar Line. It can come into being and thus provide that
‘missing link’, only when perfect <i>centering</i> and <i>alignment</i>
have been yogically integrated into the Supramental Descent because
the Bridge traverses the chasm between those subtle and dense
worlds. This means that it is not an accomplishment <i>external to
the deepest truth of material creation.</i> It has to be rooted in
its deepest heart. Therefore the Centre is the field-boundary of the
Third. And the Mother’s plan is her legacy, with which she has
carried out that ‘future realisation’ just as it has been described
by the Mother. </span></span>

All along both the
Mother and Sri Aurobindo have noted exactly how the Supramental
Descent would take place. Particularly after 1956 there are numerous
dialogues in which the Mother makes her position clear, even to the
point of noting her ‘boundaries’. Time and again she records a difficulty in
remembering the experience or the work she was engaged in during the night, or even in a daytime vision somehow out of the body, such as
we have quoted in <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/2012/04/part-x-core-and-world-2.html">CIC 11</a>. ‘Up there’ she often states that she
understands fully; but when she tries to bring it to her waking
consciousness here, that understanding eludes her.<br />

at labour in the ‘old creation’. This means that they worked <i>from
above</i> in the manner of a descent. It is only at the third and
fourth levels that the work <i>from below</i> begins because it is
then that the Bridge is brought into being and the ‘missing link’ of
the intermediate zone is forged. Time and space are central
ingredients at that point, unlike when the work was localised in the
subtle dimensions. Time and space are the tools for the
construction; nothing else is required. And when they have provided
the Bridge, the 9 can become the 10, and the work is done. Then
truly a new world is born, bearing very little relation to the old.
<i>‘I had the impression – an impression which remained for quite a
long time, almost a whole day – of an extreme relativity – no, not
exactly that: the impression that the relation between this world
and the other completely changed the standpoint from which things
should be evaluated or appraised… (ibid).’</i> </span><b><i><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></i></b></span></div>

A community that exists for this express purpose, whose members
incarnate because of a web of destiny that cuts across time and
space, must have the grace of <i>revelation</i> to carry it to the
fulfilment of that Purpose. This new creation is to become
established in the midst of a hostile world. It would be naïve to
ignore the fact; or to believe that a sentimental idea of
transforming the world so that it will accept this newness in its
midst is sufficient to protect its existence in the early stages.
The Mother’s Vision, on the other hand, provides the <i>real</i>
method of preservation in a hostile world. The method is to secure
an alignment of consciousness-being that places one beyond the reach
of hostile powers. We inhabit one universe within which are
numerous layers or dimensions. There are different ‘laws’ operating
in each of the layers. The reversal that takes place when the 9
becomes the 10 is that the individual moves into a dimension under
the rule of <i>simultaneous time</i>. This is the property of the
Solar World, the ancient <i>swar</i>. When Sri Aurobindo described
this passage as the most difficult, it is because once having made
the crossing into that ‘upper region’ new laws apply. One is out of
reach of all the powers of the lesser regions. We appear to occupy
the same physical space – but really we are ‘worlds apart’. </span></span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><sup>4</sup></span></span></span><br />

the new consciousness: sphericality and simultaneity.<br />

The
Laws of Correspondence and Equivalence can only function in a world
where this passage – the 9 to the 10 – stands as its foundation. For
in that passage, which takes us into the sanctum sanctorum of the
Mother’s temple, the aspirant indeed passes beyond the reach of
forces hostile to that realisation. Oneness then becomes the
operating principle; as such, all the elements participating in this
spherical wholeness become facilitators of the divine Purpose lodged
in that <i>centre</i>. It is then that we can affirm: All, positive
and negative, serve the purposes of the One.<br />

that centremost source. This is the true path of non-violence which
simply means that nothing is imposed from outside, or enforced from
outside. The system so aligned would reject that imposition
precisely because it is not in harmony with the higher laws of the

continues to be under the rule of the Lords of Falsehood; and for
this reason the Mother’s chamber was a prize possession because had
it been constructed with the precision she expected, this
realisation of centering and alignment would have extended to the
entire community that is in some way connected to that Vision; and
as the boundaries were further extended, the whole of India and
finally the entire planet would have become integrated into this new
cosmos where each element is assured of its rightful place within
the whole. Nothing is rejected because oneness is the keyword, and
negative and positive serve that One.<br />

was the most coveted item from the first day she revealed
its
contents; lamentably, not by affirmation but by negation. As
we are
able to witness, even today those forces instinctively
hostile to
the Vision refuse to acknowledge her superior
accomplishment, while
still deceiving the public by insisting that what has been
built in Auroville is ‘the Mother’s original’. On such foundations of
falsehood, whatever arises can only collapse one day by the
weight
of its own contradictions. <b><i><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></i></b><br />

Hinduism was founded on the realisation of convergence onto and into
a Point. Praises to Agni in the Rig Veda, for example, reflect this
obsession, if you will, with the upholding, supporting power that
Agni is known to be. Skambha is the fullest expression of that
‘support’, being the Cosmic Pillar upholding ‘all that moves and
breathes’. These are extremely profound praises, and the most
pregnant of all in the hymns to Skambha is, ‘…Though manifest, it is
yet hidden, secret’. In this passage we note the element that sets
Hinduism apart from Buddhism, for example, and all the later paths
and schools of yoga and philosophy that have significantly moved
away from the early moorings. Here the Rishi declares that Skambha
is <i>manifest</i>, even as it is a secret and hidden ‘support’. The
Rishi never needed to deny the reality of our material creation.
There was no need to flee the world in order to attain the solar
realm. All that the Aryan Warrior had to do was to continue the
process, which the months of the year would open, door after door,
until the border was reached at the 9</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">
stage/month of the journey. At that point a supreme effort was to
transpire where the Warrior must endeavour not to succumb to the
contracting, inward pressure, to seek escape from the material womb
of the Mother through either death or an obliteration of the
evolving consciousness and a severance with the nexus of our world,
the soul. The Hostiles seek to impose the old responses of a mortal
creation under the rule of Death, to abort the journey before the 9
becomes the 10 – indeed, the most dangerous part of the process,
just as Sri Aurobindo has noted. <br />

In dealing with the Veda the foremost problem is that we translate
or interpret the verses that are already several thousand years distanced
from the Vedic Age, very far removed from that consciousness. Not
only is there no evidence of the realisation of Skambha in any of
the texts of the intervening period, we also need to bear in mind
that nothing of the Vedic Consciousness exists today. It may be the
<i>foundation</i> of Hinduism, but that base is embedded in the soil
of the Ages. Indeed, many Astrological Ages have passed since the
Rishis walked the land. </span></span>

different meaning today and perhaps quite unrelated to <i>swar</i>
of old. All translators interpret the word to mean <i>heaven</i>. In
our minds this places the attainment of that coveted ‘solar world’
in some otherworldly dimension disconnected from our material domain
because we have been influenced by several thousand years of
nurturing just such a split. In these Chronicles we have moved
closer to the real sense of <i>swar</i>. It has to do with the <i>
laws</i> operating for the individual who has managed successfully
to make the crossing for the 9 to become the 10. This means
that the power of the Sun is the governing principle. In a sense we
can better understand the procedure when we realise that our solar
system consists precisely of 9 planets plus the Sun. The Sun is that
10</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">,
or, as described in the new cosmology, the Zero. It is either the 0
before the 1, or the 10 after the 9; or else it is the 19 after 18,
and so on, depending on the grade attained. <br />

embedded in our very cells due to the measure of our solar system.
As a species we have evolved to the point where the system has
reached this measure in our awareness; we have devised technologies
to perceive this measure, which indicates that as a species we have
indeed crossed a very special – and dangerous – threshold. As a
collective, global experience we stand at the most vulnerable point,
similar to the Aryan Warrior when at that borderline crossing he
becomes the most vulnerable to the hostile forces, when he must live
the experience of the 9 becoming the 10. In other words, he reaches
the Sun. He enters the Solar World and with this passage he comes
under those higher Laws of a solar essence, the stuff of the Sun, as
it were. <br />

The method for
knowing the sacred measure of things may have been different, but
the results were the same. This knowledge was subsequently lost but
the essence was nonetheless carried over into Hinduism by
maintaining that measure even though it did not seem to make any
sense. For example, Hindus incorporate the Lunar Nodes in the count
of planets, though it seems obvious that astrological observations
were advanced enough to know that they were not planets but orbital
intersections. Their incorporation was a means to <i>keep the
measure of 9</i>. And so it has been over the past thousand years,
in spite of the ridicule from science. The reason why it is
important to know the Measure is because it must form the basis for
the Laws of Correspondence and Equivalence to operate. But together
with this scale there must be the right application, the correct
time factor. And this is what was lost when the Capricorn
Solstice was torn from its position in the Warrior’s ‘journey’ to
the Sun, leaving him no gateway to <i>Swar</i>. <br />

be understood that the Rig Veda was a text composed by a
civilisation that utilised the sacred universal Language of ages
gone by, a Language whose alphabet has now been lost in the land
where it may have taken birth. And those of us today who have been
given the task of re-establishing the sacred Measures must indeed
have the forbearance and the fortitude of the Aryans of old so that
the journey is not brought to a halt at the threshold where the 9
becomes the 10. <br />

referring to the two ‘lines’ which form the DNA of the New Way, so
to speak, and which were described by the Mother as dark blue and
golden yellow ‘numbers’. They were <i>living things</i>, the Mother
noted, as indeed they do refer to living entities. We use the
formula provided by Sri Aurobindo’s symbol at the heart of the
chamber’s Core, </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">–</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"> 9/6/3/0-1. With this equation we can ‘update’ the
Veda, so to speak, and <i>apply</i> the Laws in the midst of our
very changed society, though respecting the original sense and
purpose in every way – perhaps even in a more complete way. And thus
we note that the Laws are indeed <i>eternal</i>. The question is
simply one of making that passage to the solar world; and then the
same secrets of old are unveiled as the very same operating
principles of our contemporary society, which appears to be very
much a denial of all that the ancient Veda held most dear. </span>

its inherent Purpose – be this in 3000 BCE or today. The nature
of that ‘heaven’ is described accurately by the Solar Line itself on
the basis of Sri Aurobindo’s formula in that only the numbers of the
<i>years</i> of their births need to be calculated, not as in the
Lunar Line where the full count of day and month and year are
required. Thus Sri Aurobindo is 9 by virtue of the year, 1872 (=9).
Similarly, the Mother is 6 by virtue of 1878 (=6) alone; and the
third by her year count alone, 1938 (=3). These are the basic Laws,
though the full birth counts are utilised when the case demands. But

was the object of the quest. To enter that world death was not
required, only that the 9 become the 10. Then, as stated in the Rig
Veda, by the ‘recovery of the lost Sun in the revolution of the
year’ the victory was achieved. But Sri Aurobindo also noted that
the significance of the 9 and the 10 (rays) was more difficult to
understand, and which he was ‘not yet in a position to solve’. He

numbers’ of the night time sky of the Mother’s experience (<a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/2012/03/part-ix-bridge-of-gnosis.html">CIC 9</a>),
require the full count, as for example, Indira Nehru-Gandhi
(19.11.1917=3), the third of the Lunar Line. Though more numbers are
involved there is less <i>power</i>, or potency. The ‘substance of
the Sun’ is diluted; it cannot operate in full strength but must be
relayed, as it were, by the Moon. This function is described in the
Mother’s chamber by the circle of 12 columns surrounding the
centre-core. This is understandable since the Lunar Line is the
extension in the world of the Solar and is far more bound by the
rules of the society in which it must operate. The Solar,
on the other hand, wields the freer and more potent power of the Sun
itself, the pure substance or essence. And as time moves on and the
Work reaches the third level where the realisation of Skambha
becomes established, the centre that has thus come into being by
this sacred process can stand alone in the midst of a world in
chaos, firmly rooted on this planet. Provided, of course, that the 9
has become the 10. <br />

secrets of the Mother’s Vision, with it came the knowledge that the
nuclear issue would be centred on India and not between the then

her nighttime activities? Or that Number would dominate both the
mundane and the sacred in an unfolding that stood only a few years

the new millennium, 2001, the new Power is fully operating in the
world. For indeed when the fourth level is opened there is a <i>
directional shift</i> and the vertical descent of contraction
changes to <i>horizontal</i> and expansion. This means that the
Third of the Line succeeded in bridging the past and future and
thereby in releasing the energies of the solar substance trapped by
the Panis in their nefarious hoarding ‘in the cave’, as the Vedic
myth describes, in order to pin our world down and to keep the Earth
subjected to the rule of the Dark Lord. Indeed, ‘in the revolution
of the year they broke Vala’, for we are dealing with Time’s energy,
the withheld portion due, precisely, to the lack of that Bridge. The
duty of the Third in the Solar Line is simply <i>to construct that
bridge</i>. <br />

The circle (Diagram A) is the year divided into four quarters,

quarter corresponds to <i>Swar</i>, but unlike our current
understanding, <i>it is a part of that year</i>. It is in fact the
most significant section of our calendar since the Makar Sankranti
opens the last quarter at the Capricorn Solstice, precisely when the

Death. <i>Swar</i> is not ‘up there’, in some dimension removed from
Earth. It is here and always has been; but it is ‘closed to us by
the months and the years’, just as the Rig Veda describes. These are
aspects of the Veda that none have penetrated so far. Only when the

multitudes is of no consequence. The only important matter is that
the work is done. 9/11 stands as testimony to the fact that a new
world is born wherein the power of <i>simultaneous, whole time</i>
has been injected into the system and our boundaries have been
consequently extended. It is thus the Core and the World now. The
old fields of the work remain trapped in fragmented time and
therefore cannot experience replenishment directly from the Source,
as indicated in ‘the symbol of the future realisation’. Now the
field has become the world. The first and second foundations have
played their roles as arenas where a special cluster of energies
would create conditions for the Bridge to come into being through
due processes of the supramental yoga. This is out of bounds for

The circle
is the Year divided into four parts, marked off by the Equinoxes and
the Solstices (Diagram A). To be noted is the last quarter, the
topmost. It is the December Solstice that opens the gateway to
Capricorn and the Vedic Swar. In Diagram B we have what is called
‘Twashtri’s Bowl’, the Divine Architect of the Rig Veda, composed of
the four planes of existence, </span></span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">–</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB"> <i>Prithvi</i> (Physical), <i>
Antariksha</i> (Vital), <i>Dyau</i> (Mental), and <i>Swar</i> (Supramental).
What is clear from the text is that this famed ‘bowl’ is another
description of the ‘vault of heaven’ or the cosmic surround. It is
the ecliptic which we divide into four parts based on the four
Cardinal directions; it is the same as Diagram A. Hence here we have
another correlation between the Rig Veda and the new cosmology. <br />

to Twashtri’s Bowl, so far removed from the setting of the Vedic Age,
do we really ‘see’ what was so obviously common knowledge
then? And
yet this cosmic Bowl is still relevant today, especially
today when
everything around us seeks to deny what the Ancients knew so
well;
because though it is not explicitly stated, Twashtri’s Bowl
allows
us to appreciate what the cosmic foundation of the caste
system is
and why Krishna tells Arjun in the Bhagavad Gita that the

may chant the mantras and carry out the rituals, but unless the cogs
and wheels are set properly in place, time is not the propeller of
that Harmony and only cacophony can ensue. Then caste, for example,
becomes the opposite of what it was in the Vedic Age. Instead of an
enlightened and superior mode of societal order, it becomes the
instigator of constant discord and strife. Yet none penetrate
beneath those layers of soil that have closed out the true rhythms
of life and they simply allow themselves to be carried away by
political propaganda, be this of the left or the right, nothing of
which addresses the real cause. It is that the right Time Key must
be inserted into the chamber’s door so that then the Makar Sankranti
can allow us access to that sacred space where the great secrets are
held. The fourth quarter of the wheel/ecliptic, where the 9 becomes
the 10</span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">

that is withheld and which the Aryan Warrior is set upon retrieving.

unconscious, final, irrevocable. It is the 8</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">

just a stage along the way? The journey does not end abruptly in
this unconscious slumber to await another birth and then to somehow
start again under the same condition of total unconsciousness. In
addition, the four remaining stages/months are those considered the
most dangerous because the Warrior must <b>reverse the direction in

cows/rays has been secured, when we are allowed access to the Solar
World, on this planet and nowhere else, we <i>see</i> this unfolding
as if from a luminous point at the heart of each created thing,
‘…though manifest, it is yet hidden, secret’. For it is the <i>
common</i> centre hidden in the heart of material creation, which
allows for <i>order</i> and not chaos. <br />

described it, reverses the direction and establishes higher laws.
But the secret lies in the fact that these laws are the structure of
the Core itself, its most secret essence. On this basis the new
creation is joined across time and space by a Power operating from
that centre – <i>the Core is the world.</i> Nothing stands outside
of the extended boundary. But the most important factor to bear in
mind is that the unfolding is like a flower blossoming from a seed –
always inner to outer, point to circumference. There can be no
imposition when the higher laws operate since the Bridge is
constructed joining the three times and Skambha has come into being.
Any imposition from outside is a violence, including all our
cherished ‘new age’ formulas which have no relevance to the new
creation simply because they have no core foundation. At the same
time, without that realisation only chaos can prevail whose
definition is a revealing lack of a ‘centre that holds’, just as the
Mother’s Vision and plan describe. </span>

sacred Vision and distorted it to allow for their apparent victory.
What they did was simply to fall under a larger influence that then
used their resistance and denial to ‘further the purposes of the
One’. We now have a completed structure purported to be ‘the
Mother’s original’, but which these Chronicles have exposed as <i>
made in man’s image</i> and not at all in the Divine’s. But this
shadow does indeed serve the Work <i>by offering the seeker</i> <i>a
choice</i>: this or that, the Mother’s or man’s. The Mother’s
carries us into the Solar World; the latter is </span></span><i>
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: small;">‘…the things men do; they do it
more or less well, and then it lives, and then it dies, and then it
changes, and then it becomes deformed, and then… </span></span></i></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">–</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman";"><i><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: small;"> everything they
have done’</span></span></i><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: small;">…(17.1.1970).
The result stands before the world: a field where nothing of the
higher laws can operate. All is imposed from outside, and on an
increasing scale because the more power that is fed to the
periphery, the greater the inward collapse when there is no centre,
no ‘birth that fills the void’. </span></span></span>

Dharma, the Ancient Way, it was the Mother who actually did the
yoga that finally permitted that ancient Way to be reinstated.
The Divine Measure was her contribution, epitomised in her Vision
and Plan, her final legacy. She did not elaborate its meaning except
for the clues and confirmations she left us as aids along the way of
discovery, largely because she had to disclose her revelation to a
hostile world in attendance of the one whose duty it was to build
the Bridge, the Third of the Line. But from
that point onward the Mother did consolidate the Knowledge that
saved the Work, and with it we begin to fill in those dug-out
trenches, those <i>new</i> trenches of right measure, defined by the
fact that they did reach rock-bottom, as it were, because the <i>
direction</i> was the right one: not extended out and beyond and
therefore denying even the existence of the soil, but by accepting
the planet’s sacred place in the divine scheme and accepting the
hard labour of holding the penetrating direction in the midst of the
most ferocious denial one could experience: the denials offered by
the mighty realisers of the past, the great achievers – but all of

presented geometrically in the Pedestal: the Ray is ‘manifest’
as it enters the Shalagrama/chamber, but when it reaches the
Pedestal it is ‘hidden, secret’. Therefore it is a total
falsification of the Vedic sense in the Mother’s vision to have
altered the Pedestal on the basis of an architect’s whim as in
the Auroville Matrimandir, to have eliminated the Mother’s Vedic
knowledge in favour of these ‘mental ideas’. Above all, Sri
Aurobindo <i>lived</i> the experience which has been impeccably
rendered by the Mother, but then eliminated in the Auroville
rendition for no apparent reason other than an architect’s
‘mental idea’.</span></span></div>

issue of <i>Atlantis Rising </i>(March-April, 2004) in his
article, ‘Psychokinesis vs. Gravity’, directly related to our
present discussion. He made an experiment with a group of
‘psychic lifters’ whereby his body weighing 45 kilos was raised
by the group merely with each of the four members holding an
index finger under him. The weight, he calculated, was reduced
to just five kilos, to allow for the phenomenon. </span></span>
</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><span lang="EN-GB">
<br />
Afterwards, with a video recording of the
experiment, Payne sought the opinion of scientists graduated
from MIT. They had no answer according to the known laws of
physics. Finally Payne himself deduced that of all the factors
involved in gravity, the key issue, there was only one that
would or could be changed to bring the weight down. He writes,
‘The force of gravity is a function of the inverse square of
time. Somehow increase time in that equation and down goes the
force of gravity.’ He then questions whether a psychic can
affect time? Finally he reaches the conclusion that the
resolution lies in frequencies. He states, ‘Frequency is a
function of time’.<br />
The method by which the paranormal works ...‘lies
in quantum physics…It makes sense that if a psychic has some
unknown but observed way of affecting time that quantum
mechanics will ultimately explain the phenomenon.’ And finally
Payne suggests that this was the manner in which the Great
Pyramid must have been built, and that those ancient wisemen
knew how to alter the frequency of those massive stones, similar
to his own body weight by the contemporary psychics.<br />
Regarding the Mother’s Chamber and the new way
cosmology, in the exposition presented here of the passage to <i>
Swar</i> where higher laws operate, the key factor is also time.
One enters the zone of <i>simultaneous time</i>. The time factor
is indeed changed, as Payne suggests. And as explained in this
Chronicle, the laws governing the mechanism are thereby altered,
though the subject occupies the same physical dimension. Payne’s
work demonstrates how science is beginning to evolve deeper
thinking processes and reaching conclusions known from ancient
times but elevated in this Supramental Manifestation to greater
heights because of this universality. It is an example of how
when a breakthrough occurs today in processes of the Supramental
Yoga – such as the realisation of Skambha in the 1980s – there
will be a direct effect on secular science in the world at large
since <i>the Core is the world</i>.</span></span></div>

emphasise the importance of the full count of one round in the
Precession of the Equinoxes, 25,920 years, as part of
‘refocusing the time lens’, one of the main duties of the Solar
Line. Thus the count of each member would be the Mother,
21.2.1878=<b><u>2</u></b>, Sri Aurobindo, 15.8.1872=<b><u>5</u></b>,
the Third, 5.1.1938=<b><u>9</u></b>, the Fourth, 26.11.1963=<b><u>2</u></b>.
Thus each of the members of the Line ‘becomes’ one of the
numbers in a round of the Precession of the Equinoxes: 25,920.
We need not belabour the point that such a combination is
complex and unusual. It reflects the precision of the
Supramental Descent which creates its own conditions of
manifestation.</span></span><br />

<br />

<b><br />The question of <i>mass</i> and <i>alignment</i></b></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
‘The pre-Pharaonic Egyptians understood the question of <i>mass</i>. The Great Pyramid provides the proof. Science has not addressed this aspect of the colossus yet, mainly because it still refuses to accept that its builders possessed a science and technology far beyond ours. It is impossible, they sustain, and therefore they refuse to look at it, in spite of the ground reality.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">‘The answer we seek in the Great Pyramid lies in its <i>mass</i> which involves the most baffling aspect of the structure: the size and positioning of the massive stones that tightly and accurately constitute this mass. But there is more, and this involves alignment and the <i>core</i>, which in turn are provided by shafts of great precision traversing the Pyramid, and the chambers at specific locations and of specific dimensions. All of this has been executed with a precision completely unparalleled and unrealisable by us today. Above all, we have no idea why such a phenomenal effort would have consumed an entire civilisation. The answer lies in the question of alignment indeed, but not just for Egypt. It involves the Earth’s axis itself; spatial however, unlike the Mother’s chamber where it is a question of time axial alignment as these Chronicles demonstrate and true to the Rig Veda heritage.</span></span>
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">‘The <i>mass</i>, <i>proportions</i> and<i> design</i> of the Great Pyramid brought about a ‘shifting of the poles’, as it were. To be more accurate, it was a balancing factor, a compensation, if you will. For example, while the 5 days over the 360 of the perfect circle have to be accommodated in the Mother’s core, so too in the Great Pyramid the <i>spatial</i> equivalent needed to be factored. It is similar to a weight placed at a particular point in a rolling sphere so that a determined course and rotation could be attained and maintained. Knowledge of the secrets of mass and proportion provided those hallowed Initiates with the means to ‘conquer space’. In the Mother’s chamber the element we deal with is time. Thus the precision demanded now, similar to the construction of the Great Pyramid, involves the correct measurements of the chamber and, above all, the correct dimensions of the globe and pedestal and their location beneath the descending solar ray. In both instances a ‘rectification’ of a certain imbalance is the issue. The Earth is sacred within the solar system because she houses an evolving species which can ponder these mysteries and serve as <i>conscious</i> instruments for this ‘correction process’, with all that it signifies. At no other place in our System is this operation possible.’ (From CIC 11.)</span></span></blockquote>

A news item appeared in <i>The Hindu</i>, 27 May 2004, entitled ‘Why the Earth Wobbles’. It needs to be reported to our readers because of its important implications for the Great Pyramid, and by consequence the Mother’s inner chamber in which the Great Pyramid holds a privileged place, provided the measurements the Mother gave are accurately executed. This report from scientists at the University of Nevada adds considerable weight to the assessment put forth in these Chronicles (quoted above) regarding the function of the Great Pyramid.<br />

Catching up with ancient traditions the world over, science now knows that it takes approximately 26,000 years of the Precession for one gyration to be completed, but more importantly it is now theorising that a shift in mass on the surface of the Earth can alter that rhythm. According to Geoff Blewitt, by using a global positioning system over the past decade and measuring changes in the shape of the Earth, the conclusion his team has arrived at is that ‘…the earth is wobbling while its shape is changing…It bulges at the equator as it’s spinning. If the position and height of that bulge changes slightly – we can pick it up’.<br />

On this point there can be no dispute. However, what is still being questioned – or rather ignored because there seems to be no ‘reasonable’ answer – is what the purpose of such a massive structure might have been. Being so obviously the product of an advanced civilisation, it is unacceptable that we continue teaching our children that those pre-historic builders were egomaniacs seeking self-aggrandisement. The Great Pyramid and its companions had a specific role to play – and incredibly this role embraced the destiny of the entire Earth. The Initiates of those times dealt with the Solar System as if it were a great Clock, and they left us this evidence of their startling ability to re-set this cosmic timepiece.<br />

We seek to understand how they were set in place, realising that today we cannot duplicate such a formidable feat; but no one questions why they needed such enormous blocks to begin with. Considering their very advanced technological capacity, the Pyramids could have been made hollow, if only the shape was required – for whatever purpose. This was not the case. Great effort was put into securing a certain tightly fitted mass. It seems clear enough that this mass is the key issue.<br />

How can science now introduce anything that might contradict this dogma?<br />

This was to assure that the Age of Aquarius would begin in 1926. According to the newspaper report, ‘…Large amounts of mass need to be moved from one place to another so that the Earth is “off balance” to make the Earth wobble, according to Blewitt, who said <i>the North Pole then adjusts to a new position to compensate</i>.’ (Emphasis ours.)</div>

While science may not be ready to apply this discovery to the Pyramid, its <i>mass</i>, located very near the equatorial band where ‘bulges’ matter the most, has to be taken into consideration. It was constructed during the <span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">7</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span></span> Manifestation of Sri Ram, <span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">7</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span></span> in the Line of Ten Avatars. And we do have stories in the Ramayana about Hanuman moving enormous stones to construct the bridge to Lanka. Quaint tales? Perhaps. Or perhaps the Earth soul’s memories (myths) of deeds long, long past. In this case, <b><i>we now have evidence that a shift in mass can produce a change in the wobble which in turn directly affects the Precessional movement</i></b>. This unveiling of the secret of the Great Pyramid has far-reaching implications. As predicted by the Sphinx, we realise that 1926 was the momentous turning point, the time of <i>revelation</i> and <i>completion</i>. During the <span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">7</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span></span> evolutionary avataric appearance in the <span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;">7</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span></span> Manifestation, the Cosmic Clock was <b>re-set</b> so that the future convergence would occur ‘right on time’.<br />

It is a vast prophetic capacity <i><b>with a practical application</b></i>, rare in the world of the Spirit as we know it today.

Or the Mother’s capacity to know that this was the great key for the years to come and that it must form the heart of her Chamber and must be set in place with the same meticulous precision that was used for the construction of the Great Pyramid – and for a similar <i>connected purpose</i>?<br />

There seems to be no apparent reason why these great deeds could not have been cemented for many centuries to come in the Auroville Matrimandir. Instead we have to dedicate our time to exposing the falsehood that has taken root there, in the effort at least to halt the on-going deception, while contingency plans had to be implemented over the last three decades to assuage the damage. Just imagine the fate of the Earth and the Supramental Manifestation today – so closely connected to Egypt of 12,000 years ago - if a simple architect of no higher realisation were to have usurped the position of the Initiate then and imposed <i>his will</i> on the colossus, claiming his vision to be superior to that of the Seer. Of course this is unthinkable. But it has transpired in our times when technology does not know how to serve ‘a higher purpose’, and university degrees are the be-all-end-all of the quest for knowledge.</div>

Hence her article and claims are totally false. They continue to deliberately mislead the public. Considering the phenomenal precision the pre-Pharaonic Egyptians possessed, is it any wonder that the Mother pleaded for <i>precision</i> in the execution of <u>her</u> plan, connected as it has been proven to that former revelation? She had every right to believe that we could achieve the same results; but in this Aquarian Age by honouring the task set before us, and which the Great Pyramid directly helped us to achieve.<br />

In pre-historic Egypt it was spatial factors and physical mass. Alignment of the Mother’s chamber is as important as alignment was for the Great Pyramid, particularly the chamber’s crosswise shafts, - horizontal and vertical. In a yogic process, ultimately this gives us the <i>perfect centre that fills the Void</i>.<br />

That is, the annual cycle of 12 months and the greater cycle of 12 but spread over 25,920 years. Both these circles (of time) had to converge in 234 BCE. They did, thanks to the Great Pyramid. Meanwhile the Sphinx preserves this secret for us and reveals the <i>axis</i>, Aquarius/Leo, when the Avatar would appear to complete the work set in motion 12,000 years ago in a direct line. In the Mother’s revelation we have this convergence meticulously honoured in the descending solar ray which must touch the globe/pedestal at a very precise location if the ‘symbol of the future realisation’ is to operate and fulfil its function.<br />

This, coupled with the revelation of the Great Pyramid’s secret, causes wonder and awe and instils a reverence for the Consciousness that could so sovereignly and meticulously organise this Descent to further its Divine Plan.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Those of you who have diligently followed the 12 Chronicles of the Inner Chamber, at least would have come away with a very different understanding of numbers. By the end of that series – what has come to be known as the Yoga of the Chronicles – number has to have become for each of you more <i>living</i>, real <i>powers</i> and not just ‘coincidental’ representations which, from the ordinary viewpoint of our contemporary science, are akin to metaphors or figures of speech. In themselves they have no reality; they are simply convenient symbols to convey processes and can be substituted.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>Rather, study of the Chronicles would have brought its readers a degree closer to appreciating the Mother’s experience of Number and the Golden and Dark Blue columns, as reported in Chronicle 9, pages 7-9. That remarkable description of her night-time experiences in 1969 was a ‘seed’ event: <i>the Mother planted a seed</i>. This was picked up, fertilised and brought to fruition in two known places on the globe immediately after – Italy and Germany. Interestingly, both countries thereafter played central roles in the temple saga of Auroville.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

One of our aims is to reveal the manner in which the Mother’s original vision and plan of the Inner Chamber has influenced evolution, civilisation, society, on numerous levels. In these assessments Time helps to eliminate speculation, guessing, imagination, and adds a certain precision to our quest. One example is the work of the chemist/mathematician, Dr Peter Plichta of Düsseldorf, Germany.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>Immediately after the Mother’s vision of the Chamber took place (31 December 1969-17 January 1970), Dr Plichta began to understand the true nature of Number. This was in 1970 and it is corroborated by his biography. It was revolutionising, leading finally to his dismissal of science as we know it today 19 years later. His breakthrough was centred on the prime numbers of mathematics. With them he found the ‘plan of creation’, or the ‘construction plan’ God used in the evolution of the universe, all the way down the scale from macro- to microcosm. On this basis he realised that ‘coincidence’ does not exist but is just a convenient method for scientists to eliminate this ‘plan’ (and hence God) from their postulations, which has had a devastating effect on societies the world over.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Both are, of course, central to the New Way Cosmology, on the basis of which the code of the Mother’s chamber has been cracked (to use the current popular jargon!).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Plichta realised <i>the <u>reality </u>of numbers</i>, inspired by the Mother from those planes (‘…I still see the arrangement of numbers I was making, which were totally <i>living</i> – numbers were <i>living</i> things…’. Ibid). Thus Plichta’s new science became SPACE, TIME, <i>and NUMBER</i>; and it validates everything contained in our Chronicles and the New Way Cosmology<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i><b> </b></i>[1]</span>. (However, it must be stated that the new cosmology goes a step further than Plichta’s postulation; but that is immaterial to the point we wish to make here.)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

The trinity, the number 3, the decimal and metric systems were ‘discovered’ and have come to be the foundation of our measuring because they are ‘there’ in nature <b><i>to be seen</i></b>. They are the construction plan of the universe, according to Plichta.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>The Mother’s original plan is the new model of the universe, as the Chronicles have indicated time and again, or the ‘blueprint’ (Plichta’s construction plan) of creation. And the Mother also used <i>space, time and number</i> to create this model with those very keys and no other.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Then the total was 18 + 1, or 19 – the number that opened up Plichta’s world, revolutionising science.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>On a lighter vein, there is a very interesting anecdote regarding 19 and the Mother’s vision and plan. Up until March of 1976, the 19 did not figure in the discoveries, as recorded in <i>The Gnostic Circle</i> (Aeon Books, 1975). In the middle of the struggle to have the Mother’s original plan (of space, time and number) accepted by the builders, the residents, and the administration of Auroville, its author received the visit of the executing architect, Piero Cicionesi (see Chronicle 3). True to his irrepressible tendency to mockery, when he was leaving and was accompanied by the author to the main door of the compound where she lived, leading on to the road where he had left his motorcycle, after starting up the engine Cicionesi had an afterthought. He dismounted all of a sudden, ran up to the address tacked in brass on the main door, rubbed the numbers as one would Aladdin’s magic lamp, snickered and exclaimed in Italian, <i>‘Ha-ha, 19 – very significant, very significant, HA!’</i> He then jumped on his motorcycle and continued blissfully on his mocking way.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>That was the last attempt on the part of the author to deal with that representative consciousness embodied in the executing architect of the Mother’s temple. Plichta confronts this attitude in scientific circles all the time. But here is the really exciting part – and Plichta will certainly agree: Within months of Cicionesi’s mocking of address number 19 on the author’s door, the most phenomenal breakthrough in her yoga occurred – <u>all centred precisely on the number 19</u>. Will some kind reader of these pages inform Cicionesi how accurate his prophetic mockery turned out to be! Nothing of <i>The New Way, Volumes 1, 2, & 3</i>, not even one line, could have been written without the added 19 which completed the Formula, 9/6/3/0-1 (=19).<i> </i>One has to view Piero Cicionesi’s attitude in the context of the phenomenal <i>control</i> that number (through Time) exerts. And then see how we are either puppets or instruments of the Divine Planner. That is about the only <i>choice</i> (read, free will) we have: puppets or instruments.</div>

When there is a centre, or when a centre is being compressed into existence according to the new cosmology and the Yoga of the Chamber, the action is circular, spherical, because of which simultaneously all levels or all quadrants of the circle divided into 4 are activated and compressed. Only in a spherical operation can all four come into play together, covering all levels of existence: physical, vital, mental and supramental. Formerly the last quarter was termed ‘spiritual’; but after the Yoga of the Chamber brought decisive breakthroughs in the 1980s and 1990s, spiritual is not adequate to describe the nature of the last quarter. This will be made clear further on.</div>

Survival depends on this method. Otherwise we would have been crushed out of existence long ago. It is a much slower method and the results are always partial. We can only go just so far in such a situation. This describes the boundaries or limits of the <i>menta</i>l human species. In geometric symbols we would describe the difference in this way, a pyramid and a circle, A and B. Note that in a pyramidal evolution, while the 4th level, here termed ‘spiritual’, appears to be attached to the 3<span style="font-size: x-small;"><sup>rd</sup><sup></sup></span>, the mental, in a continuous experience, in the actual practice of yoga there is a disconnection. Mind alone is the tool or channel to reach the summit. This situation forces a rupture and <i>transcendence</i> becomes the only means for access to the last quarter. The process cannot be <i>consciously</i> lived if it is not <i>integral</i> (B) because the energies carried away by the vital and physical leave the system depleted of power. All yogas, up to Sri Aurobindo’s integral model, have to be described as ‘pyramidal’ and transcendental (A).</div>

However, the macrocosm did not come into being on this plan (A); spheres, circles and curves are the geometrical patterns we see all around us (B). The same can be applied to the evolution of the human species. This means that on the basis of the above diagrams we can geometrically display the truth of Sri Aurobindo’s statement that Mind is not the summit; it is only one more step along the way. The quadrants are 4 (B), as they are for Dr Peter Plichta in his spatial geometric plan based on the primary number code he discovered (See www.matacom.com, Update 2, for a discussion on Dr Peter Plichta’s mathematic plan of creation.) However, it has to be noted that the ‘construction plan’ the New Way offers, the Gnostic Circle, combines both time and space, while Plichta’s deals only with space.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Such being the case, how do we ‘go circular’? This is the key question. We cannot do it in isolation of the rest of the species when a certain threshold is reached. That threshold is the 9<span style="font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span> Manifestation. This is what is meant by <i>being born as an evolving species</i>, and that the 54,000 years prior to this Age/Manifestation were simply the 9 ‘months’ gestation leading to the ‘birth’ (our times). For this reason a NEW world is born, as the Mother stated. It is not a prolongation of the mental (pyramidal) creation. It is necessarily, in our lived experience, an entirely new world. We graduate from linear to spherical; and Death is no more since it is itself transformed. The experience becomes simply a question of overcoming the pull of Inertia to be able to complete the journey to the summit; and it is a <i>conscious</i> passage through twelve stages covering all four dimensions of being, physical, vital, mental and supramental.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

It can only happen in an integral, spherical plan. The circle of 360 degrees has to be completed or closed at the 0/9 summit. Until the Supramental Descent of our times, the evolution of the past 54,000 years has not been lived consciously within the full circle in spite of individual breakthroughs. We may not know what came before our cycle, but we do know that this great circle of a total span of 77,760 years is intended <b><i>to</i></b> <b><i>bring evolution through the mental/linear mode to the spherical</i></b>. The tool is Supermind, the Truth-Consciousness.

<b>The Oneness of Symbol and Symbolised</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On the world stage the proof of this statement is 9/11, particularly the attack on the Twin Towers. That was the visual image of the binary/linear collapse that takes place when the dual aspect of Mind reaches the point where it has to be replaced by the circular mode. And if we add the zodiacal script with its progressive movement through 12 stages for a deeper comprehension, we see the Towers as the Gemini hieroglyph `, the very sign related to Mind and Duality. There can be no doubt that once this is pointed out, once the Twin Towers are <i>seen</i> in this light, one can never view the events of 9/11 without this understanding.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Is it any wonder then that the numbers 9 and 11 are the full birth counts of the Third and the Fourth in the Solar Line? Due to this event these numbers have taken on an iconic resonance in the collective consciousness. When those 3<span style="font-size: x-small;"><sup>rd</sup></span> and 4<span style="font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span> stages are activated through processes of the Yoga of the Chamber, we experience the Birth. This marks passage to the new world that the Mother spoke of: that linear/binary formula which has governed our world for thousands of years, simply ceased to exist. It evaporated just like the Towers did. 9/11 was the signal that ‘out there’ and not just in hidden chambers reserved for an elite, the shift was made. Linear patterns can no longer hold, only the spherical.</div>

The final quadrant has been added which opens up the higher potentials; and once that happens, irrevocably, as 9/11 indicated, there is no retreat possible precisely because the movement of time <i>is irreversible</i>. The progress we make now is rapid and decisive. (See <a href="http://www.aeongroup.com/septrilo.htm"><i>September Trilogy Plus One</i></a>) </div>

But there is the individual to consider as well. The wheel/sphere is one in the Gnostic Circle and we all evolve within that one circle, unlike in the individual horoscope of traditional astrology. Therefore the circle itself has to provide individuals as well with the same new potential. What has been achieved yogically for the entire mental species can be experienced by each of us. The great secret lies in the mysterious Rig Veda and its riddle, ‘the 9 becomes the 10’.</div>

When one progresses in one’s journey through life and time in circular systems, because of which death no longer exists as an option, as an escape valve as it were, - or for that matter even the salve of <i>nirvana</i> and <i>samadhi</i> – then the 8<span style="font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span> stage (death) within the 12 can be traversed without obliteration of the Seeing Eye, without succumbing to the great sleep that is Death.</div>

All cultures throughout the world succumbed to this formula in one form or another. All but the ancient Vedic civilisation. Yet the yoga of the Rig Veda did not extend beyond certain boundaries; the time to <i>universalise</i> had not yet come. This is the preserve of the present Age of Aquarius, Lion to Man, Leo to Aquarius.</div>

The key lies in the 9 becoming the 10 during the 12-stage journey, the ancient Vedic formula. This passage draws us into the fourth quadrant <b>on this Earth</b>. What has for so long been considered heaven beyond this world is brought down to Earth by this passage. It is a passage of internalisation due to contraction.</div>

The reversal requires a concentration of consciousness-force to the point where compression occurs, driving one <i>into a point</i>. The result is <i>the birth that fills the Void</i>: a perfect centre has come into being, consequent of which is an axial alignment emerging from that true Centre, which, in the Mother’s words, <i>casts no shadows</i>. We need to explore the deeper meaning of these words. For this we can use the Mother’s plan of the Inner Chamber; and similar to the visual aid of the Twin Towers, her plan can show us the way. </div>

Foremost to observe is that there are two <i>directions</i> for the chamber’s axial alignment; as there are two for the Earth: her own axis and her position in relation to the Ecliptic. In the Inner Chamber we also note that the two directions are clearly defined: its 24 metre diameter (horizontal), and the 15.20 m descending Ray (vertical). These ‘directions’ meet at the perfect centre hidden in the Pedestal beneath the Globe.</div>

The fact that they are combined in one design is what sets the Mother’s original vision and plan apart from any other piece of sacred architecture the world has known. The descent of the Mother’s vision brought into manifestation two exceptional keys of Knowledge, both of which are ‘written’ in her original plan. One is called the Gnostic Circle. The Mother has given us the plan of that new world. It is spherical. It is whole. It is the structural image of the Gnostic Circle – the new blueprint for the individual, for society, and for the evolving human species.</div>

This means that compression of the concentrated power is a circular operation in which nothing is excluded: life’s totality and all the dimensions of consciousness-being, Transcendent, Cosmic, and Individual are compressed into that Point. It is then, after the Reversal, that the centre gives birth to the One and Time then extends in Space the contents of that Seed. What it contains has to express itself; it cannot be otherwise because Time in its spatial deployment is irreversible. While this describes the <i>cosmic</i> Truth it is also the individual’s truth and birthright. And birth in this universe and on this planet alone provides us with the <i>field</i> to live the experience.</div>

The Mother’s inner chamber is the new sacred architecture because it too, by its vertical and horizontal axes and true centre, combines Time and Space. The Gnostic Circle explains the Mother’s creation; the Mother’s plan gives ‘form’ to the Gnostic Circle. They result in 3 + 6 (= 9).</div>

<b>The Mother ‘re-sized’</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In a variety of ways the choices people and groups make, individually or collectively, are exposed for what they are in the light of higher studies. They reflect either a wide and all-encompassing vision, or else a personalised, and by this very reason, a fragmentation that is expressive of the ordinary human condition. In this light there is another interesting anecdote to relate from our historical documentation concerning the Mother’s original vision and plan, which once again reveals that there are no pretences and truth is manifest at all times. It is in the way that Sri Aurobindo addressed his co-worker of the Solar Line. She was always <i>the</i> Mother, with the article.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>After dismissal of her original vision and adoption of the Auroville architect’s version in the 1970s, simultaneously a movement began to drop the article. She became simply ‘Mother’. Everywhere in print or in speech, in both the Ashram and Auroville, the tendency was to an <i>article-less</i> ‘Mother’. She was thus dislodged from her cosmic completeness and converted into an intimate, loving, and very human creature; but that much diminished by this imposition. Certainly it is worth noting that rejection of her original vision and plan by Auroville was fully in consonance with this diminishing. To experience <i>the</i> Mother, creator of such a superlative vision, as the embodiment herself of the Cosmic Truth, one would have to make a supreme effort to expand one’s consciousness accordingly. It is an accomplishment that requires serious yogic commitment.</div>

In fact it was propagated by the very group of people who spear-headed the drive to adopt the architect’s model. We have reached the point today where this mode of addressing the Mother has come to distinguish the followers of that camp (the whole of Auroville) as a sort of signature. Some sections of the Sri Aurobindo Ashram still hold out, but they are fast becoming a minority. But let us examine the deeper significance in the development of ‘the Mother’ to ‘Mother’, and in so doing disclose its place in the total context of the Mother’s work where there are no ‘coincidences’.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

The Mother (complete formula) is 3 + 6 = 9. Dropping the article leaves poor Mother dangling with only the 6! This means that the 3 has been eliminated. <b>And it is precisely the 3<span style="font-size: x-small;"><sup>rd</sup></span></b><b><span style="font-size: x-small;"><sup></sup></span> Power that gives birth to the true Centre and the consequent perfect alignment</b> – exactly what is missing in the Auroville construction. No true centre, no perfect alignment – and no luminous Globe, or the Third Power in the Chamber’s Core. Without the 3 there is no Knowledge (symbolised by the luminous translucent Globe, the only light-filled object in the Chamber) and the Chamber cannot be a <i>conscious</i> experience of the Absolute Truth that is its essence, its core substance. In its present state it may be all things to all people, as comforting as ‘Mother’ surely is. However, in its <i>shadow form</i> it is a reinforcement of that very relativity we seek to overcome as a species, as a civilisation, as individuals.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Similar to Dr Peter Plichta’s criticism of contemporary science, to the builders of the shadow temple centimetres also have no intrinsic value.<span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span>Along with everything else they are thrust into the bag of ‘just coincidences’. And by this reasoning, the gnostic content of the Inner Chamber has been eliminated forever in the Auroville construction.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ8CocFYf12DQlUAtm8vbv2KHfpp2ei71-8ubxlPLx5x-Bkqme8nhnEaKh4dJrzoQLxC2i-j715bupCyrxyk41dnT6M8gywVEV_5iTHsbhaOBYh0qp2mwe7jF-eg6lChIs3iUafBcb7s/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" style="margin-left: 0em; margin-right: 0em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibGnTvtVZJgPKnf9638BhVHYGF6OATRYUVSdCaxk1Q7nukVQPzLK0WwLC_ptPEkUH5pE5ZMT8nKkJa5IDrlcSsQXvX-C4tLdgom6m-nrrBUUV0cdlb4Mm4eP_GiQzobGeS0Uh2Wl0hIQM/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>Still we must go deeper. If we really wish to identify with the essence of the Chamber and the realisation it offers, then we have to realise that these obstructors <i>goad us on</i>, as the Mother noted in one of her most insightful revelations (see Appendix). And in this light we note that had the article, or the 3, not been dropped there would have been no struggle to have the Mother’s plan reinstated; and if we could have eliminated that struggle, there would be no revelation of the gnostic content of the Mother’s vision. In other words, it would not have become an APPLICABLE tool of the Yoga. Indeed, there would have been no Yoga of the Chamber at all since the essential ingredient in the process is <i>knowledge</i> and <i>conscious</i> participation. The 3 had to be lost so that this denial would force her unveiling which in itself was the method to bring down the Knowledge.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

But for readers of these Chronicles and students of the New Way, she will always be, as Sri Aurobindo envisioned her, <i>the</i> Mother, the combined 3 + 6.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

In the New Way one angle at the base of the Sacred Triangle is 6. It is balanced by the 3, the other angle, to equal the Apex, the 9. This is the Formula; this is WHAT IS. We may choose to eliminate the 3 (and the article) and remain only with the 6; but then we chose death, decay and the shadow because the 3 is the integration of the Becoming and it is indispensable in order to transform linear processes to circular. This is the essence of the New Way, and it is the essence of the Mother’s Inner Chamber.</div>

That would be miraculous; however, in this work miracles, as the term is commonly understood, do not happen. But there can be a gradual almost imperceptible change which is entirely in tune with the nature of this Yoga, when elements that were always there are somehow shifted and in that shifting a new order or harmony is created. Nothing has changed in the sense that nothing is added or cut away. But because of the new alignment, or realignment, things fall into place differently: a higher order manifests.</div>

It is the whole that is different, the area of the circle (which did not ‘exist’ before). Then<i> time manifests events from the centre</i>. It is not linear as past to present to future, along a line. It is a manifestation from the centre, and perhaps one should not describe it as <i>evolution</i> any longer. In the new order <i>things manifest</i>, they emerge into the light as a blossoming flower. The flower is always totally there – but time urges its growth (manifestation) from the centre, from within. The Mother’s reflections on Sri Aurobindo’s aphorism describe this experience of a new integration of the Becoming. It is a flowering directly under the ray of a Supramental Sun; and it casts no shadows. This poise comes about only in circular systems; hence the Mother described the Core of her vision as <i>‘the symbol of the future realisation’</i>, always from within, always centred.</div>

(Sri Aurobindo’s 70<span style="font-size: x-small;"><sup>th</sup></span> Aphorism (recorded in Vol. 3 of <i>The Mother’s Agenda</i>) followed by a portion of the Mother’s comments)</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Very Good! (<i>the</i> Mother laughs) That’s very good.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It’s very good for everyone, isn't it?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Especially for those who think they’re so superior.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But it really does correspond to something very deep.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is exactly the experience I have been going through these past few days; since the day before </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
yesterday it seems to have reached its peak, and this morning it developed into a comprehensive vision, an earth-encompassing vision. It’s almost like a reversal of attitude.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

But increasingly there has been a very concrete vision of the role adverse forces play in the creation, of their almost absolute necessity as goads to make the creation progress and become its Origin again. And there was such a clear vision that one should accomplish one’s own transformation – that’s what we must pray for, what we must work out – rather than demand the conversion or abolition of the adverse forces.<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

And this movement of earth consciousness towards the Supreme, the offering of all these things with such extraordinary intensity, was a kind of reparation so that those adverse forces might disappear.</div>

It crystallised around a small nucleus of experiences too personal to mention . . . which translated into this: ‘Take all my wrongdoings, take them all, accept them, obliterate them, and may those forces disappear.’</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

So long as a single human consciousness carries the possibility of feeling, acting, thinking or being in opposition to the divine Becoming, it is impossible to blame anyone else for it; it is impossible to blame the adverse forces, which are kept in the creation as a means of making you see and feel how far you have to go…</div>

<b><u>Update 4 – 3 February 2005</u></b><br />
<br />
Perhaps the most important item in our Manifesto deals with the necessity to have MAC publications regarding the Mother’s original vision preserved for posterity in the appropriate Ashram department as a part of her legacy.<br />
<br />
We are pleased to announce to our readers that copies of the Chronicles of the Inner Chamber are now with the Research Library of the Sri Aurobindo Archives Department in Pondicherry, and are available to researchers who wish to learn of the Mother’s original vision, as well as the true position regarding what has been built in Auroville.<br />
<br />
The importance of this development lies in the fact that this is the first official acknowledgement of the Mother’s Vision. We believe that MAC has been able to prove through its publications that the Mother’s most important legacy to humanity is her plan of the Inner Chamber. With this, several points in our Manifesto have been fulfilled. We will continue in our endeavours to provide the public with new revelations to further bring home the fact that the Mother’s Vision is an unending source of Higher Knowledge.<br />
<br />
Readers who wish to have a hard copy of the complete Chronicles may send a request to <span style="font-size: small;">a<span style="font-size: small;">eongroup</span></span>@msn.com for procurement details.<br />
<br />
Wishing our readers a fulfilling 2005, we remain at the Service of Truth.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
On December 26, 2004, a tremendous natural upheaval occurred, unlike anything the world has record of. Given the advances of our 21st Century communications media, scenes of this devastation were continuously flashed across the globe, drawing our attention to the event almost as it was transpiring. As in all such situations, this too served to prove that we are <i>one world</i>. From all corners people watched the raging spectacle and commiserated with the millions affected by this devastation. We were made a part of the phenomenon along with its victims, in a sense. And so colossal was the destruction that unprece-dented relief efforts have been set in motion, again drawing us all together as one family.</div>

When maps were relayed across our television screens, one could not fail to note that the area struck by the wave was precisely the ‘tail’ of the Capricorn hieroglyph (below) which delineates the landmass of Akhand Bharat – the full and true body of Mother India (see <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/2012/03/part-viii-vedic-cow-and-horse-in.html">CIC 8</a>). The Tail of the glyph reproduced here points to all the nations affected by the earthquake and subsequent tsunami. We can visualise a circle drawn within the Tail area and note that the quake was almost an excuse to draw into orbit all these nations. But there is more that needs to be discussed now that the dust has settled, so to speak, which involves the theme of these Chronicles, - the Mother’s original plan of her Inner Chamber.</div>

They are in their correct positions, the correct ‘flow’, Rajas to Sattva to Tamas. The practice of placing Sattva in front and the rest behind was the surest way to lose the cosmic connection. This misplacement was the result of the otherworldly goal that in one form or another had become the apex of every yogic path and for which attainment the Sattva Guna was the most appropriate.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The secret hidden in this zodiacal glyph, traditionally known as the Name of God, is precisely the three Gunas in their correct order insofar as this allows us to make the connection with the heavens. The section that we draw attention to in this Update is the Tamas portion which extends down to the Tail.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On numerous occasions this Convenor has written about the destructive activity of Nature that the area frequently experiences. We quote from <a href="http://www.patrizianorellibachelet.com/TNW12.html"><i>The New Way</i></a>, Volume 2, page 355, written in 1977 and published in 1981: ‘One of the most crucial areas of her Body [Mother India] is the armpit of the left arm, Bangladesh [and continuing down the Tail], because this area stands at the point of transition from Capricorn to Sagittarius and coincides with the mouth of the Ganges. The energy change there is from rajas (Capricorn) to tamas (Sagittarius). It is a tremendously potent point – hence even nature manifests there in her full power when cyclones rage into this armpit with a force only occasionally felt elsewhere on the globe…’.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The shift noted above refers to the geo-cosmology of this New Way when the zodiac is laid across the globe, starting at Greenwich with 0 degrees Aries and moving eastward in a backward movement through the signs similar to the direction of the precession of the equinoxes. In a splendid manifestation of the Harmony, when we reach India it is exactly at that point that the sign Capricorn begins – her own ruler, according to the tradition – 60 degrees east. Thereafter the entire Capricorn map is displayed on the landmass, covering 40 degrees of longitude. But each zodiacal sign consists of only 30 degrees; thus, when the ‘armpit’ noted above is reached in this eastward flow, we observe that the sign Sagittarius begins, continuing to the end of the glyph for 10 degrees; hence the energy shift from rajas (Capricorn) to tamas (Sagittarius) mentioned above. At that convergence point between the two signs, the mouths of Ganga are located. It is, as it were, a time-space ‘fault’. Here is the geo-cosmic ruler, reproduced from <a href="http://www.patrizianorellibachelet.com/TNW12.html"><i>The New Way</i></a>, Volume 2, Chapter 9:</div>

Cyclones, tornadoes, hurricanes, all have ‘centres’ – <i>eyes</i>, as they are termed. They are <i>organised</i> formations but numerous, spread throughout the outer coverings of the Earth, amidst her veils, as it were. On the other hand we have volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and resultant tsunamis which have their origins in the very bowels of the planet. That is where their ‘centre’ is found, - in this single ‘core’. The difference is significant. While the atmosphere is prolific in its multiplication of such phenomena, each with its own <i>eye</i>, the movement of the Earth’s crust owes its being to this core activity, to pressures exerted <i>from within</i>. The outer phenomena is measurable, we can follow the development, sometimes over many days, and prepare ourselves; there are no surprises involved. But the key feature of the other is precisely the element of the unexpected.</div>

In fact it is clear that the emphasis this time around was not the armpit proper; rather, it was the Tail, - the whole of it. Indeed, the quake that the clash between the India and Burma plates generated – a fault line that stretches inside and along the Tail’s bottom section - seems to have been a whiplash of sorts, as if the Tail where these plates are located had been flicked like a massive whip in the hands of some raging Elemental that threw back into the area its fullest fury. If we could describe the holocaust in one word it would be <i>rage</i>.</div>

But this is not the case since the entire Symbol-Map is given pride of place in her enlightened plan.</div>

This is done on the basis of the Laws of Correspondence and Equivalence, a method reserved for Rishis of a very high order such as the Mother (see <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/2012/03/part-vii-vertical-sri-aurobindo.html">CIC7</a>).</div>

This means that Time and Space would thus converge in the Globe (and Pedestal). To achieve this harmonisation the positioning of the descending solar Ray (the year) must be exact; and in order to attain that precision, the height of the stone Pedestal must be 50 cms.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZMlw5nq3TNDgcQok3tiHerTsO4LODtCXRT6u_xQnA7VSsZ8VvxFF_2X_9KZMR4QrmiLWh5tYciYBAJ7H3ba9IKxFJGPcptPfoQ2rhMVSQnFFxySiJr644zBRze9_Ie6xn4dwGwawUtU0/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZMlw5nq3TNDgcQok3tiHerTsO4LODtCXRT6u_xQnA7VSsZ8VvxFF_2X_9KZMR4QrmiLWh5tYciYBAJ7H3ba9IKxFJGPcptPfoQ2rhMVSQnFFxySiJr644zBRze9_Ie6xn4dwGwawUtU0/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>When these measurements are honoured a very great aid is at our disposal to bring a similar harmony into the landmass in question; in this case the obvious effect would be an emphasis on the unity of the area in fulfilment of the high destiny that Capricorn signifies. But when these measurements are inexact, obviously no such help is given and the reverse can be experienced; or else, whatever is attained is on the basis of great efforts: sizeable expenditures of energy for very little gain.</div>

That special destiny could not be changed regardless of the ego’s interference, ‘<i>…the things men do</i>’, to quote the Mother. Inasmuch as the containment would operate in spite of the resistances met along the way of the Chamber’s <i>descent</i> into Earth time and space, the disturbances such interferences and disbelief would engender had also to be accommodated; but not without a certain toll. In other words, the destiny is played out negatively.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZMlw5nq3TNDgcQok3tiHerTsO4LODtCXRT6u_xQnA7VSsZ8VvxFF_2X_9KZMR4QrmiLWh5tYciYBAJ7H3ba9IKxFJGPcptPfoQ2rhMVSQnFFxySiJr644zBRze9_Ie6xn4dwGwawUtU0/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZMlw5nq3TNDgcQok3tiHerTsO4LODtCXRT6u_xQnA7VSsZ8VvxFF_2X_9KZMR4QrmiLWh5tYciYBAJ7H3ba9IKxFJGPcptPfoQ2rhMVSQnFFxySiJr644zBRze9_Ie6xn4dwGwawUtU0/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>There has thus been a contingency plan in effect to assuage that negativity since the mid 1970s when the Auroville Matrimandir fell irretrievably under the sway of a lesser ‘purpose’. It then became a stronghold of a power inimical to all that the harmonious form stands for; in other words, a retrograde force, a tool of Inertia. Thus we note that over these three decades during which time the contingency plan has been operating in full, on a certain dimension the Mother’s work seemed to have reached an impasse: nothing of its high truth was visible in the world; and the temple in her name was the focal point of deception and mis-measure. What was being accomplished, however, was in secret chambers – but very consciously undertaken. The objective was to counter the retrograde effects of the force that had usurped this sacred-most area on the planet, at the heart of the landmass of her very own Soul – India. During this period the destructive effects of that force were held within certain boundaries by this contingency method in a process of containment based on the aforementioned Laws.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

In this contingency plan it was <i>the year of the Globe</i> in what has come to be known as the Yoga of the Chamber. Throughout the ennead of the 1980s (1980-1989) the inner chamber was ‘constructed’ by yogic methods in order to cement the Mother’s original plan in the atmosphere. This was the only means to counter the construction of disharmonious form and measure. It was the only method to save what could be saved for the future of the Work.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Only in that decade – or, more properly, <i>ennead</i> - could a particular facet of the chamber be duly <i>set in place</i>. By yogic methods of a very special order, ancient yet new, each year one particular object of the Chamber was thus ‘constructed’. The method’s newness lies in the fact that there is always a renewal because of the role Time and the Becoming must necessarily play in this renovation. With each rising Sun the divine Usha brings a <i>new</i> dawn as she appears on the horizon on her white steed, Agni, carrying her luminous rays in ever-increasing abundance into the lived experience of life on this sacred planet, respecting the demands of the dynamic flow of Time. And it was by the express aid of Time itself that the rectification was done, hinging on the measure of the Year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZMlw5nq3TNDgcQok3tiHerTsO4LODtCXRT6u_xQnA7VSsZ8VvxFF_2X_9KZMR4QrmiLWh5tYciYBAJ7H3ba9IKxFJGPcptPfoQ2rhMVSQnFFxySiJr644zBRze9_Ie6xn4dwGwawUtU0/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZMlw5nq3TNDgcQok3tiHerTsO4LODtCXRT6u_xQnA7VSsZ8VvxFF_2X_9KZMR4QrmiLWh5tYciYBAJ7H3ba9IKxFJGPcptPfoQ2rhMVSQnFFxySiJr644zBRze9_Ie6xn4dwGwawUtU0/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>Thus 1983 of 3 number-power was the year that the Globe had to be ‘set in place’. This meant that the distorted horizontal and vertical axes which had been cemented in the Auroville model required ‘correction’ so that the perfect Centre could be realised. It was a labour of untold difficulty given the nature of the resistance and the objective to be attained. We were not only dealing with a situation involving a handful of devotees and the mental aberrations of one architect-usurper. Contained in the effort was the deviation the entire body of Indian spirituality had taken centuries ago, represented in the off-centre axis which created a <i>void</i> where there should be the fullness that emanates from a true centre. In terms of the human endeavour, this is a rightly poised consciousness-being, in turn the outcome of <i>a birth that fills the void</i>. This was indeed accomplished in 1983. The <i>direction</i> was then inward, into a Point, no longer to the Beyond. And thus was born the true Centre, and with it the Earth’s express contribution to her planetary family was redeemed.</div>

Nothing would be the same after this breakthrough. Everything would need to be assessed in the light of this ‘birth’. What was in harmony with that could be termed ‘new’. There could be no mixture thereafter, as the Mother had warned, because the Void of the Ages had been filled. In other words, the Usurper’s days were numbered. </div>

But the 1983 <i>positioning of the Globe</i> via the rectification of the crosswise axes was only the beginning. Nonetheless, it marked a significant turning point in that the victory was thereafter secure – <i>a Golden Seed had been planted in the heart of Time</i>.

But its placement was a foregone conclusion when the Globe that received the Golden Seed was set in place through whose bosom this Seed passes. The Globe determines the measurements and form of the Pedestal (see CIC 7). Thus 1983 and 1984 must be viewed as one connected yogic operation: the successful accomplishment involving the Globe could only result in the proper Pedestal. And this too is faithful to the Knowledge and the contours of the Supramental Manifestation as designed by the Supreme Shakti.</div>

We note that 1983-4 was the exact midway point in this designated period. By 1998 the task was largely completed. <i>The Inner Chamber was then an <b>indestructible </b>element in the Mother’s work, at its very heart.</i> From that time the process of exposure could begin. MAC is a part of that on-going process.</div>

This, as pointed out in the Chronicles, is the traditional Festival of Light: 21-22 December to 5-6 January. The inner chamber is the abode of the Time-Spirit, and this is his most sacred festival. The measurements as given by the Mother bring about the <i>correction</i> Sri Aurobindo referred to regarding Kalki’s coming. That birth is foretold and confirmed in those measurements (see <a href="http://matrimandir-action-committee.blogspot.com/2012/03/part-ix-bridge-of-gnosis.html">CIC 9</a>). But with the distortion on the ground, at the 12th latitude bordering the tsunami-hit area, the yogic ‘construction’ of the Chamber was vital.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZMlw5nq3TNDgcQok3tiHerTsO4LODtCXRT6u_xQnA7VSsZ8VvxFF_2X_9KZMR4QrmiLWh5tYciYBAJ7H3ba9IKxFJGPcptPfoQ2rhMVSQnFFxySiJr644zBRze9_Ie6xn4dwGwawUtU0/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZMlw5nq3TNDgcQok3tiHerTsO4LODtCXRT6u_xQnA7VSsZ8VvxFF_2X_9KZMR4QrmiLWh5tYciYBAJ7H3ba9IKxFJGPcptPfoQ2rhMVSQnFFxySiJr644zBRze9_Ie6xn4dwGwawUtU0/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>The point of this Update on the tsunami occurrence is simply to reveal that after the process of exposure was successfully accomplished (the Yoga of the Chronicles), these two versions of the Inner Chamber could no longer stand side-by-side. One or the other had to be un-done as centre-focus of the Mother’s work. Her true vision could no longer be suppressed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

The power of Inertia that was able to usurp the physical space only because the measurements had been changed received a fatal blow. It could almost be seen plunging in a rage into the nearby ocean depths because of this failure to impose its stamp of Death on the Mother’s work, its failure to hold the Earth in its coil of mortality forever after.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZMlw5nq3TNDgcQok3tiHerTsO4LODtCXRT6u_xQnA7VSsZ8VvxFF_2X_9KZMR4QrmiLWh5tYciYBAJ7H3ba9IKxFJGPcptPfoQ2rhMVSQnFFxySiJr644zBRze9_Ie6xn4dwGwawUtU0/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZMlw5nq3TNDgcQok3tiHerTsO4LODtCXRT6u_xQnA7VSsZ8VvxFF_2X_9KZMR4QrmiLWh5tYciYBAJ7H3ba9IKxFJGPcptPfoQ2rhMVSQnFFxySiJr644zBRze9_Ie6xn4dwGwawUtU0/s1600/MatacomBlog-Para.jpg" /></a>This brings to mind a warning that was issued, in a monograph entitled, <i>What is Wrong with Matrimandir</i> in 1977. This document was circulated throughout the Sri Aurobindo Ashram when the Mother’s original vision was lost forever in the Auroville construction. The repercussions of this defiance were all too clear, as the following reveals, the strategy of the Usurper was more than obvious: </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
‘…The matter becomes doubly difficult when the dark power places itself at the Centre, at the very Soul point, and there disguises itself as this very thing. In so doing it consolidates its hold and enjoys a unique protection, by taking refuge in the very heart of the organism. Thus as it grows its eradication one day would necessitate the destruction of the new creation itself. Once it has taken hold, to uproot it would require such a tremendous shock that the tender new creation could not withstand the impact and would ultimately be carried away in the process. If the dark power is to go, it seeks to establish itself in such a position that it is able to carry with it the new creation about to be born, to carry it down into the whirlpool of a primordial Chaos. For this reason the Heart is its most coveted object, and it must at the outset establish itself there…’ (p.44-45).</blockquote>

This is the <i>applicable</i> nature of Oneness that plays such a central role in the Supramental Manifestation. And therefore the Goddess Savitri is commanded by the Supreme to bring this gift back to Earth together with Love. That applied Oneness materialises before our inner eye in the Mother’s true Chamber because <i>time</i> and <i>space</i> have been harmonised and integrated in the single descending solar Ray of the chamber of ‘perfect measure’. In this light the Mahamaya so wisely states that when the temple’s measurement is in every way perfect, <i>there will be perfection everywhere.</i></div>

<b><u><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Update

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman";"><b><span style="font-size: medium;"><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">R</span></span></b>eaders of these Chronicles and Updates, prepared and
circulated by MAC, will now reap the benefits of their efforts at
digesting this perhaps unfamiliar and arcane material: a subtle
shift has to have occurred in the reader’s consciousness. Prior to
this study a visit to the room in Auroville may not have caused a
jarring effect in one’s consciousness. But after the Chronicles, no
one can now claim that the crystal and stand of the Auroville
version should remain in place and continue to be advertised as the
Mother’s creation. To the newly enhanced eye, it is, if nothing else,
cacophony. <br />
To prove the
point, we present here two photographs of the centrepiece of the
Chamber. The first version has been done with meticulous care so as
to reproduce the Mother’s vision as faithfully as possible. The
model was made by an Auroville interior designer in 1977. His view
was that ‘a picture speaks louder than words’. He believed that if a
model were made of the Mother’s Vision, certainly the executing
architect would be convinced by the sheer impact of its beauty and
he would agree to return to her original plan. Of course by 1977
there was no hope of retrieving anything of that original since the
floor diameter and 15-step entrance had been eliminated. But those
of us who were involved at the time supported his efforts
nonetheless. The result, when faithfully reproduced in every detail,
was the stunning image that has since come to be known as ‘Agni in
the Core’. It reached the world on the cover and centrepiece of <i>
The New Way, </i>published in 1981 by Aeon Books. <br />
The reader must
note one of the Core’s distinctive attributes: <i>It casts no
shadows</i>. Even its reflection is luminous. Indeed, luminosity,
effulgence, a glowing emanation of Light is the impact Agni in the
Core makes on the viewer. And hence it is a representation in sacred
art of the creative FULLNESS, the descent of the Light of Gnosis.
<br />
The next
feature to note is its perfect balance. This occurs because each
element that constitutes this composite form is in perfect relation
to every other element: the proportions are exquisite, the harmony
is unmistakable. The Pedestal, above all, is solid, powerful,
purposeful. </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman";"><br />
On the other
hand, we have the Auroville product reproduced below the Mother’s.
The visual impact leaves no doubt in the viewer’s mind that this
version is simply <b>the exact opposite of the Mother’s original</b>
– its ‘shadow’, as it were. There is no light, no effulgence, no
FULLNESS. <b>There is only emptiness and darkness where there should
be nothing but light. Its sophisticated veneer cannot mask its dark
purpose; the discerning eye is not fooled.</b></span></div>

Every detail of the Auroville version strengthens the view that this
rendition created by the architect <i>in his own image</i>, - that
is, as a product of<i> his</i> creative devices and consciousness
rather than the Mother’s – is exactly the opposite of hers. For
example, in the architect’s version the centrepiece <i>is raised</i>
<i>above floor level</i>; according to the Knowledge, the Core
should be placed 20 cms <i>below</i> floor level. The crystal is
transparent not translucent; hence it is dark and not light-filled.
The stand is vacant and effete, lacking the right proportions to
support the crystal properly; this see-through version cannot
compare to the power of the Mother’s design in stone. Each and every
item has similarly been reversed; <b>with the result that the
symbolism is also reversed. </b><br />
Many have been
taken in by the construction’s university-trained architects who
believe that they know best and that the Mother was in no position
to understand even simple aesthetics to the extent that they were
trained to do. And yet, in that sphere too there is no comparison.
Aesthetics can only be enhanced when Truth is the basis of the
creative process.<br />
However, there are still questions to be asked. Our photograph of
the Mother’s version was circulated from 1981 onwards, widely enough
to safely assume that the architects and builders of the temple in
Auroville had access to this image<i> before </i>they took major
decisions when fashioning their crystal and stand. Moreover, they
had the Mother’s own words which could leave no doubt as to what <i>
she</i> wanted, even if they wished to disregard our efforts,
convincing as they might be. And so, the question we ask is,<b> Did
the Auroville architect <i>purposely</i> and <i>wilfully</i> design
the centrepiece to be</b> <b>the exact opposite of what the Mother
wanted? <br />
</b>Readers
can verify the matter for themselves: In every detail what stands in
Auroville today, proclaimed to be the Mother’s original, has been
reversed. The final result is evident for all to see: darkness and
not light. Again we ask: Was this deliberate? Those who have
contributed to the Auroville construction, both in the township and
throughout the world, must ask this vital question. If they do not,
then one has to wonder if the atmosphere generated by the reversed
form has taken its toll beyond redemption.</div>

‘The effects of such a
disintegrating occult force are subtle, impossible for the human
being to perceive and understand. This power is a hundredfold
intensified when given a material support such as a Matrimandir.
When this happens we find that suddenly, almost imperceptibly, the
atmosphere begins to change, the area becomes pervaded with a fog
that clouds the people’s consciousness. Friends turn to foes,
falsehood is held up as truth, and—worst of all, no one can perceive,
no one can see the Truth. Each one believes himself to be its
upholder, when in fact each one is subjected to the same toxic force,
living under the same cloud, being made use of for the one end:
disintegration, disunity, division—in a word, the opposite of Truth’s
goal. And this is being accomplished by a power greater than the
human, which he cannot combat without a psychic realisation, or
without at least some touch of the soul as his support and guiding
light.’</div>

<b><u><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 14.0pt;">Update 8 – 4 April 2005</span></u></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 11.0pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman";"><i><span lang="EN-GB">Supermind
organises the conditions for its manifestation.</span></i><b><span lang="EN-GB">
</span></b><span lang="EN-GB">The ‘descent’ of the Mother’s Vision
in the form of an architectural ‘model of the universe’ is an
example of the accuracy of this dictum, unequalled in any other area
of Sri Aurobindo’s work.<br />
To appreciate how this operates, we may focus our
attention on Saturn, just as science is doing via the Cassini probe
which has been beaming back to Earth exquisite images of this
superbly beautiful planet. Saturn is considered the planet connected
to science; it is the planetary ruler of Capricorn which, in turn,
is the zodiacal ruler of India; and it is precisely in India that
the Mother’s Vision, in which Saturn is central, has taken shape, as
well as where the subsequent descent of the temple’s Knowledge
occurred. All of this has been the workings of the
Truth-Consciousness to arrange the conditions for its manifestation.<br />
We must emphasise again that Saturn is the <b><i>
planetary/harmonic</i></b> <b><i>essence</i></b> of the Mother’s
temple. The entire structure, inner and outer, is a hymn to the 6<sup>th</sup>
planet. And since the Mother herself occupies the 6<sup>th</sup>
position on the descending number-planetary scale of 9/<b><u>6</u></b>/3/0-1
of the Solar Line, Supermind arranged the revelation of this model
of Saturn - her own ‘pulse’ or cosmic note - through the Mother
herself. </span></span><br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman";"><b><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: medium;">Saturn above,
Saturn below</span></span></b><span lang="EN-GB"><br />
There is no better demonstration of Supermind’s ability to create
its own conditions for manifestation than the magical formula we
find in the Core of the Inner Chamber, revealing certain aspects of
a ‘new precision’ that Saturn contributes to the cosmic harmony of
our solar system. The focus here is on Saturn’s actual<i> physical
position </i>in the heavens,<i> on four different days stretched
over almost a century of Earth time: </i>from 1872 to 1963; and each
of these four days/positions are interconnected, however <b>only via
the Chamber’s luminous Globe</b>. Without the correct 70cm Globe, <i>
accurately positioned beneath the descending Ray</i>, this superb
harmonised interplay could never be perceived. Essentially IT WOULD
NOT EXIST. </span></span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"><br />
To be even more specific, it could be stated,
paradoxically, that <i>the Mother’s vision/plan causes the harmony
to manifest</i>. </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 11.0pt;">The original act
pierced the veils for the temple eternal to descend in time;
thereafter, through time’s creative impulse, the <i>becoming</i> of
its eternal <i>being </i>is organised in and through the
evolutionary process.<br />
The reader must note the extraordinary implications in
this statement. In the world of the Spirit we are accustomed to
dealing with abstracts; or else with scientifically unprovable
states of consciousness. In this case, however, we are dealing with
a new precision that brings its own formulae and methodology, or its
own <i>science</i>. This is what stands behind the understanding
that Supermind creates its own conditions: to manifest, or to become
established on Earth, it will open its own path, control the descent
of the Knowledge via that path, and disclose a new language which
can render the Manifestation appreciable by all. In the process, it
reveals aspects of creation that cannot be grasped without the aid
of this new principle.</span><br />
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 11.0pt;"> Though dealing with Saturn’s
location in four different horoscopes, traditional astrology of
whatever school is of no help in detecting the unique interplay
between these positions stretched over 91 years in the natal charts
of the four members of the Solar Line. They appear unrelated in any
way. It is only via Supermind’s ‘new precision’ in the Inner Chamber
of perfect Measure that astrology is elevated to a very different
level: it must now be described as a tool to perceive the harmonies
of the cosmos. This new perceptive enhancement allows us to
appreciate how Supermind operates through <i>oneness</i> to further
the manifestation of the Truth-Consciousness in material creation,
from vast to small, in the heavenly harmonies as well as in
individual lives. <br />
Thus, the role the Mother’s temple plays in this
unfolding is essential. Without the Globe of accurate dimensions and
placement, these four dates and respective locations of Saturn in
the heavens would be meaningless. Supermind not only arranges the
pathway for its descent, in the process it discloses the birthdates
of its instruments stretched across a century. These ‘cosmic
credentials’ are written into the temple’s perfect form and measure,
not just for one or two births, but for all four members of the
Solar Line interconnected, thus eliminating the facile dismissal
‘just coincidence’, while compounding the complexity of a precision
new to science. <br />
This is a feature of Supermind’s operations: it
integrates the One and the Many. Indeed, it cannot <i>descend</i>
without the integrated harmony of the Becoming. This revelation
serves as an example, - for which reason we hold the Mother’s Vision
as our guiding light. </span></div>

<b><span lang="EN-GB">T</span></b><span lang="EN-GB">here are two
‘years’ in the measure of 365 days. One, of <i>time,</i> begins on
1<sup>st</sup> January; the other, of <i>space</i>, begins at the
March Equinox. Just as we do in commercial operations, for certain
purposes the <i>time year</i> is the measure, while for others it
is the <i>space year</i>. The reader can begin to understand what
the origin was of these contemporary practices; and also why in
Vedic times the Year was sacred. It was the backdrop for
everything that transpired in the Sacrifice. But, however divided,
it is always the ‘single ray’ we are concerned with, or the single
circle.<br />
The correct length of the Chamber’s descending Ray is 15.20m
in the Mother’s Vision, which in turn we divide into those 365
days of the year (of time or space). With the correct 0 point for
the beginning of the year, we then ‘locate’ these days on the Ray
as it enters the Chamber. With the help of an ephemeris or almanac
they can easily be converted into degrees of celestial longitude
on the ecliptic to find their location in the tropical zodiac of
any horoscope. In this manner we are able to establish a planetary
position on the Ray when it strikes the Globe, as the diagram
reveals regarding the four separate positions of Saturn at the
time of birth of the four members of the Solar Line. Here they
appear as one event, as if in a photographic image; but in fact
there are 91 years ‘contained’ in this ‘photo’ of the Globe via
Saturn – a concept totally new to sacred art. In the Mother’s
Chamber the four births are drawn together in this singular
manner, carrying us into the realm of Simultaneous Time – the
Eternal is thus married to the Temporal.<br />
For those unfamiliar with the language of the New Way, each
date/degree corresponds to the Saturn position at the date and
time of birth of each of the four members of the Solar Line: the
Mother – 6 (top of the Globe); the Third – 3 (centre); Sri
Aurobindo – 9 (top of Pedestal); and the Fourth – 0-1 (bottom of
Globe – hidden in the stone Pedestal). A scrutiny of their
respective horoscopes can verify these details.<br />
In Hindu temples the icon is fashioned according to exact
measurements which are contained in voluminous <i>shastras</i>
handed down from age to age. The above will give the reader an
idea of just why it was essential to respect these injunctions.
But this was only part of the process. Thereafter, in a separate
operation, a connection with Time has to be made when the deity is
imbued with power at the <i>abhishekam</i> or anointing ceremony,
which is performed at a time selected by the presiding Pundits for
its auspiciousness. But if the calendar is askew, as is presently
the case, then that connection cannot be properly made and the
opposite effect may be attained. Or at the very least, the only
power imbued in the Icon thereafter comes from the devotees who
worship at the temple. In other words, <i>the cosmos does not
participate </i>– contrary to the foundation and essence of the
Vedic Way.<br />
The Mother’s Vision offers a new science of temple building
where the two, time and space, are joined in a single ray, as
described above. The timeless or eternal (Being) is incorporated
into the temporal (Becoming) not on the basis of devices which are
themselves unstable, but by the births of the Eternal Ones. They
are eternal by virtue of the fact that they are Emanations of
Vishnu – the Godhead who lives as long as the cosmos lives, who
regularly sends his emanations to Earth so that these timeless
truths can be brought down according to the demands of the
Supramental Shakti for each Age. There are no <i>pujas</i> or <i>
homams</i> required to imbue the perfectly fashioned Globe with
power. It is self illuminating because the Time-Spirit is the
officiating Priest, or <i>Purohit, </i>in this new temple for the
new Age of the Supermind. (See, <i>The New Way</i>, Vol. 2,
Chapter 4, Aeon Books, 1981, for the complete science.)</span></div>

We are thrust into the realm of Simultaneous Time where the harmony
is pre-existent, yet in a sense it does not ‘exist’ without the
Chamber; while the Chamber is a feature of the Supramental
Manifestation without which its integrating principle would neither
descend or be perceived. It is the Mother’s plan <i>with precise
measurements</i> that ALLOWS the supramental light to materialise in
Earth time-space. And in so doing, the Mother’s description of the
descending Ray playing upon the Globe as the ‘symbol of the future
realisation’ is proven. <br />
This helps clarify the perception that the Inner Chamber
<i>exists eternally</i> in the plane the Mother visited. The
question is, how does it organise its descent? How is the eternal
brought to Earth by methods which respect and do not deny conditions
Earth life imposes? </span><br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<b><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: medium;">The sacred purpose of Time and Space</span></span></b><span lang="EN-GB"><br />
The tools Supermind must use to organise its manifestation are time
and space; it needs no others. Consequently, if the Mother’s vision
captures a new astrology for the new Age, then we are not surprised
to note that the Inner Chamber does indeed offer the world an
entirely unique means of appreciating the manner in which time and
space unveil new dimensions of their cosmic purpose. The descending
Solar Ray, or the chamber’s <i>axis of light,</i> is the element
that brings the matter alive before our eyes when this ‘symbol of
the future realisation’ harmonises, in its single-bodied descent,
both time and space. These two properties of cosmic manifestation
blend in the Ray into one body of Light and in the process reveal
their intrinsic oneness [<i>see box insert</i>].<br />
Since it is the single Ray (<i>‘The ray of the sun must
be seen…’ ‘It must be one ray. I saw it…’) </i>as the field for the
interplay between time and space, this new cosmology becomes a
valuable tool for an appreciation of the nature of <i>oneness</i>
that is the signature of the cosmic manifestation.<br />
In this manner events played out in time-space can be
‘located’ in the descending Ray. Significant happenings can be seen
to occur when calendar time reaches particularly sensitive points in
the Core. An example would be the location in time and space of
Saturn as described above at the births of the four members of the
Solar Line, certainly a harmony revealing a vast, all-encompassing
Consciousness at work. Another would be the 26 December
earthquake/tsunami which took place just below the Solstice
‘location’ at the top of the Globe, drawing attention to the
Capricorn Symbol-Map, the measure of which is ‘contained’ in the
Globe (see Update 6). Or else, we may take the descent of the
Chamber itself which Supermind, through the Mother, brought into
being on or about 1<sup>st</sup> January 1970 – or the centre of the
Globe and, moreover, during Saturn’s zodiacal month, Capricorn. The
descent of the Vision was completed by the time the Ray passed out
of the Globe, the calendar equivalent of 10 January. The 18-day
period ended at the base of the Pedestal in the count, the seat of
the Divine Will <i>(‘…when the supramental Will stands on earth that
Will will decide. It will establish a perfection, a harmony, a
Truth-creation…’)</i></span><sub><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span lang="EN-GB">

<span style="font-family: "times new roman";"><b><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: medium;">In
the Divine Measure lies the light</span></span></b><span lang="EN-GB"><br />
These time-space measurements are not to be taken lightly. For when
we insist, as did the Mother, on precise measurements accurately
executed, the reason is that the only element distinguishing the
Mother’s Vision from the Auroville construction is precisely <i>
light</i>, <i>GNOSIS; </i>and <i>this manifests through given
measurements and geometric patterns.</i> From time immemorial sages
have moulded space to render it a sacred vessel through these tested
methods, but in the Age of Supermind a significant enhancement has
occurred: time is incorporated directly into the spatial measurement
<i>(‘…a single ray…’),</i> unlike in any prior age known to man. But
if, as in the Auroville construction, the Ray does not measure
15.20m to the top of the Pedestal, or if the Pedestal is not 50cm in
height under that Ray, this exquisite interrelated harmony
collapses.<br />
Hence the demand for precision and accuracy is not
simply a pedantic pastime. Without those precise measurements<i>
there is no light</i>, there is no bridge to the Supramental Gnosis
via the structure. Nothing else renders the Mother’s original plan a
temple of light. And when these measurements are not ‘perfect’, as
the Mahamaya commands, the result is the Auroville model constructed
in the architect’s image: no bridge, no light and hence not an iota
of knowledge.<br />
The reader may ask, how can measurements create forms of
light? It is because the building blocks employed are time and space
through their respective measuring devices, - calendar and tape
measure; but these have been transformed by the Supramental
Manifestation into higher forms of measure, divine in essence and
expression because of interconnected oneness. That we can use time
and space in this <i>new</i> way is precisely the proof that the
Truth-Consciousness has not only manifested but that it is able to
create its own conditions for descent via these enhanced building
blocks.<br />
If Supermind is to transform our world into a field for
its establishment as the next commanding principle, displacing Mind
as the regent of our species, we must be able to follow its workings
in this very world of time and space. We have no other field for our
labour and our enjoyment. The Mother’s vision helps us to do just
that: it <i>materialises</i> Gnosis, precisely by the precision of
its measure, the <i>divine</i> Measure. In St John’s <i>Revelation</i>,
it is called the Golden Rod. </span></span></div>

Continuing deception?</span></span></b><span lang="EN-GB"><br />
Update 7 created the expected impact. One reader who had worked for
a number of years on the Auroville construction questioned how the
reflection of the Core (the flame at the base) could come about when
the stipulated carpet covers the floor. This is a valid point.
Photographs were taken at several stages in the creation of the
model; a few, such as Agni in the Core, were done without the
carpet; hence the reflection appeared. What is important to note is
that the Pedestal’s <i>essence</i> (in sacred geometry) was known
already in 1976 to be Agni, the divine Son/Will of the Veda, the
sacred Fire. Thus when that Flame ‘materialised’ in the
reproduction, it was a magical moment to discover that the camera
had captured this sacred essence.</span></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"><br />
Bear in mind that the true Vision may never be
constructed. It may always rely only on our revelations and diagrams
for its preservation. But what distinguishes our effort and sets it
apart from ‘the things men do’ is <i>light</i>; and this is the
result of sacred measure and form. This Light will live forever and
will create the conditions for its manifestation in age upon age,
always revealing new expressions of the Truth-Consciousness. </span>Our task is to help
evolve a <i>new</i> Eye that perceives in a <i>new</i> way, and that
can then <i>see</i> this Light – a ‘felt seeing’, to use the
Mother’s description; or a ‘seeing in understanding’ of the New Way.
In Vedic times it was <i>Shruti</i>, the <i>heard sight</i>,
combining both vision and sound; added to <i>sound</i> was the light
of wisdom, <i>seeing</i>.</div>

Some readers are disturbed by the fact that off and on
in these Chronicles we have referred to the Auroville construction
as a waste. At this point an elaboration is required. If Supermind
does indeed create its own conditions, while exerting a superb <i>
control</i> over material creation as revealed in these pages, then
there must be a <i>sense</i> to this seeming waste as well. And
indeed there has been.<br />
We have stated in MAC publications that both
constructions, subtle and physical, advanced according to an almost
identical ‘schedule’, covering no less than three decades. We know
what the purpose behind the ‘construction of light’ has been: the
descent and preservation of the Knowledge, and the cementing of the
Mother’s original vision at the heart of the new world that is being
born, that it may serve as its ‘pulse’ ever after. But what has been
the ‘purpose’ of the shadow in this alchemy of forces? What was its
exact role? For if Supermind creates conditions for its
manifestation, surely it could have controlled matters to avoid this
waste. Yet if the shadow temple’s reason for existence was to <i>
force</i> the descent of the temple of light, this would be
Supermind, through both negation and affirmation, creating and
controlling the terms of its descent and establishment as the
gnostic guiding principle of the new world. It would explain the
entire interrelated process: negative and positive at the service of
the One.<br />
For this reason both Light and Dark have followed the
same ‘schedule’. If there had been no resistance to the Mother’s
Vision, if it had been accepted unquestioningly and built as she
wished, would there have been any need to record the Knowledge for
posterity? And far more importantly, the <i>yoga</i> that was
demanded in order to rectify, while opening the doors of this
special Chamber of Gnosis, would never have taken place. This was
the most important part of the Chamber’s descent into time and
space: it hastened the advent, it <i>accelerated</i> the pace. It is
as if its instruments on the side of negation were mighty Stokers of
the engine of Time.<br />
Lamentably, those elements are closed to this light they
themselves have served. Since the formation of the Matrimandir
Action Committee and the regular appearance of the Chronicles, there
have been renewed attempts to make the Auroville construction <i>
look more like what the Mother wanted</i>. There have been serious
discussions on the possibility of buffing the crystal, for example,
to create a translucent effect in keeping with the Mother’s wishes.
Interestingly, the propagators of this idea have perfunctorily
dismissed the need to look at the 24 metre floor diameter
inaccuracy, or the eliminated 15-step entry, or the stone pedestal,
– though these and more were a part of the Mother’s expressed
intent. Now again there seems to be an attempt to make the existing
structure <i>appear </i>to follow the Mother’s original plan, while
eliminating those sacred measurements and design in one sweep as
‘matters of no consequence’. They are just ‘numbers’, just
‘centimetres’, even just ‘coincidences’ (see Update 2). </span>
</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"><br />
Time and again we have asked the builders of the
Auroville construction what, in their view, was the reason why the
Mother insisted on dimension precision and accurate execution of her
plan, if it was all meaningless and only their consciousness and
labour was of value. </span>And none can deny that she did battle over these
issues with that consciousness of denial for a full 18 days before
finally handing the matter over to the ‘consciousness that decides’
for the necessary pressure by which to sort out the people ‘who
could build the temple’.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">
Supermind did indeed take up the ‘sorting out’ process.
But if the shadow temple no longer serves its original purpose, then
the present attempts at cosmetic alterations during the room’s
current closure for repairs, are to be viewed with suspicion, given
past experience. Disengaged from the gnostic Schedule, will that
field then become simply a free playground for ‘the things men do’,
where personal creative impulses and time-bound architectural
fashions are indulged with no questions asked?<br />
Let it be stated unequivocally: If the powers-that-be
who own and administer Auroville truly wish to respect the Mother’s
wishes, they must turn for guidance to those who have given
unquestionable proof of their credentials to execute her will. The
architects and the building committee, as these Chronicles and
Updates prove, have no knowledge of the sacred art of temple
building, ancient or new. They mock, they scoff, they distort. They
must now set aside their cosmetic ploys and, quite simply, abdicate.<br />
Without ALL elements of measure and design incorporated
accurately on the basis of the new precision described throughout
MAC publications, the Mother’s vision simply does not exist in the
Auroville model. One cannot pick and choose in these matters. The
time has long passed when any rectification could have been done;
any such attempts at this point are not only futile or illusory,
they have to be seen as methods designed to counter MAC’s extensive
campaign of exposure. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"> To make ‘supramental sense’ of it
all, integrally, there is certainly a way.<br />
We must simply look at <i>what IS</i> – the Dark and the
Light. We take everything that has brought us to this apparent
impasse, with the light on one side and the dark on the other,
seeing each dispassionately in its correct place, and attempt to
arrive at that all-embracing vision the Chamber itself encourages.
What have both endeavours produced? <br />
We have the final results before us in these very
Chronicles, demonstrated in an exemplary manner in Update 7 via the
two photographic reproductions, - one of light, the other of
darkness. <br />
The shadow temple was purposeful only until the descent
of the Truth-Conscious content of the Mother’s vision of light was
complete (1998). Those who wish to continue pouring time and energy
into the now purposeless Shadow can do so, but in the Age of the
Truth-Consciousness it has to be on the basis of a <i>conscious</i>
or ‘informed’ choice, to use the contemporary jargon. This cannot be
avoided now because the Matrimandir Action Committee has brought
into focus both dark and light, and revealed how they serve the
purposes of the One, the Divine Will in the Core. <br />
Thus, at this point, it is <i>to each his own…</i></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size: x-small;">It needs to be pointed out
that the Mother’s Inner Chamber serves to prove how utterly
askew the so-called Hindu calendar is, since with it the
Avatar’s <i>cosmic credentials</i> could never be seen in the
harmonies of the cosmos because the new year is 23 days late.
One of the sacred duties of Vishnu’s Evolutionary Avatar is to
bring accuracy into these astrological/calendrical matters by
his own coming, his own birth in Earth time. However, vested
interests have obstructed the Avatar’s mission for Hindu society
– through this calendar distortion - as well as for his own
followers through the mis-measure of the Auroville construction
which only compounds the distorted calendar. A prophet is indeed
never recognised in his own land in the way that recognition
would matter: to be faithful and true.</span></span><br />

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">
<span style="font-size: large;">T</span>HIS is likely to be the last Update of MAC because nothing else is
required. The work is done.<br />
A momentous turning point has been reached in the
expansion of the Master’s work in the world, like nothing that has
ever taken place before in the history of the star-studded
Supramental Manifestation.<br />
On 19 November 1969, the Mother indicated that a
significant moment had arrived, and she remarked, <i>‘…the 9 has
something to do with this </i>[the arrival of the Superman
Consciousness<i>]. There are so many things we do not know…’.</i><br />
These
Chronicles and Updates have served to bring the Knowledge of the 9,
as pregnant as the Mother hinted 36 years ago, to those involved
with or interested in the Mother’s work. We have centred the
endeavour on the Mother’s Chamber, ostensibly to bring to light the
fact that what stands in Auroville today, and is being presented to
an unsuspecting public as a faithful reproduction of the Mother’s
original vision and plan, is nothing of the sort: in every detail
there has been a disfigurement. What stands in Auroville is a
representation in architecture of the Ego and not the Soul, the
essence of the Mother’s original plan.<br />
But there was far more involved. The hidden purpose of
the formation of MAC has been to ‘begin again’, as the Mother
predicted would happen if her plan was not accepted.<br />
With the establishment of MAC a new base was brought
into being and the ‘old heaven and the old earth’ have passed away.
Thus in August 2005, the <i>true</i> FOUNDATION STONE of the
City-Consciousness was laid exactly according to the lines drawn by
the Supramental Shakti and in a manner wholly reflective of the
overt manner in which Supermind operates in the world. The
inauguration of Auroville in 1968 simply set on its way an organised
‘field’, special indeed, in fact unique in the history of sacred
endeavours, where the powers impeding the descent of a <i>new</i>
Heaven and a <i>new </i>Earth could be engaged. There has been no
other purpose in the commencement of that sacred endeavour than
this.<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"> And now 37
years down the line that offering of itself as a field for a very
special Supramental process has been received and accepted by the
Supreme, and is therefore no longer required. The work is done.<br />
A legitimate question to ask is, was this known to the
Mother when it all began? Of course it was known. In 1970, two years
after the City’s official inauguration, the Mother knew exactly the
nature of the power she was dealing with and what had to be done.
She declared this in no uncertain terms, as recorded in the
Matrimandir Talks (December 31, 1969 – 17 January 1970).<br />
But we do not need the words of the Mother to prove the
point. We need only <i>look at WHAT IS</i>. In the first place,
there was the <i>reverse direction</i> of the endeavour, the result
of which would be to ENTRAP that power, known in occult circles as
the Lord of Nations, in the Shadow Temple. This reverse direction
was set in motion in 1968. The usual development, in an enterprise
of such critical importance in Sri Aurobindo’s work for the world,
would be to start with the Centre, the Temple, and proceed outward.
Instead, we note that the City was first established. That was the
signal that something was ‘planned’ for that beginning in time other
than what was apparent. But at each step of the way the Mother gave
the people a choice: the Divine ‘plan’ or the human. And each time
the people opted for the human.<br />
Thus it is
evident that the Mother had regular confirmation of the true purpose
of the City, set in motion officially in 1968. On that occasion the
revealing factor was the rejection of her design <i>and measurement</i>
of the all-important Urn, the main item of the inauguration
ceremony. Not only was its lotus form rejected but the most
important element was completely ignored: the measurement of its
height which is the Measurement of the Third of the Solar Line,
1.65m – embodiment of the essence of the third planet of our solar
system, of the Earth herself. And that is where the soil of all the
nations of the world would be contained ever after. But instead it
was fashioned ‘in man’s image’ not the Divine’s. Thus the destiny
was fixed and set on its way on that special day in 1968.<br />
What were the consequences of that rejection of the
Divine way in favour of the human? The <i>reverse</i> <i>direction</i>
was cemented, drawing the forces involved ever deeper into a vortex,
a trap as it were, so that in a very brief span of 27 years, which
in the long evolution of these sacred matters is but the blinking of
an eye, the work would be done. This was to be the new Kurukshetra.<br />
The Divine Strategy set in motion then was to draw the
forces that have kept the Earth under the rule of the Ignorance and
to localise them in one spot, to thus consolidate the action, to
allow it to be <i>focussed</i> in one prize place on the globe. In
this strategic manner the Ignorance could be vanquished; and only in
this manner.<br />
Moving inward, the next offering of the Mother to the
people was the sacred plan of her Chamber in January of 1970. But
again that was rejected in favour of the human, thus putting the
final seal on the nature of the operation being undertaken at that
new Kurukshetra. More importantly, this brought the development to
its true reason for being – as indeed we would expect when the <i>
soul point</i> was reached, the centre of the City. It was to
provide a ‘field’ for the Third in the Solar Line to bring into
being a <i>centre</i>. In all such operations, if at all this has
occurred after the Vedic Age, the <i>physical</i> construction can
only occur AFTER the centre has come into being by a <i>yogic
process</i> of a very special order. We find this described with
impeccable beauty in the Rig Veda, and in very great detail. With
the birth of Agni the sacred Fire, and the realisation of Skambha,
the most mysterious element of the Sacrifice in days of yore, that
Cosmic Pillar could then be the upholder of the worlds, from subtle
to physical.</span> It would be
the <i>hub</i> around which Time could organise the <i>evolution</i>
of what it contained in its centremost core, that miraculous ‘seed’,
outcome of a process of <i>involution</i>. This would be the essence
of the Inner Chamber and its perfect axial balance would establish
on Earth the Centre which is <i>the birth that fills the Void</i>.
This is what Sri Aurobindo stated the mission of Kalki would be: to
<i>‘correct the error of the Buddha’</i>. And indeed, when that
Centre did come into being through a Supramental Yoga, the Golden
Child was born. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue LT 45 Lt; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">
Thus, in 1971 the process was set on its way to bring the Child
forth. It was a tremendous turning point. 1971, a year of 9
number-power, initiated the 27-year ‘plan’ that would vanquish
Inertia, which is the real definition of the Ignorance. For if
everything is contained in the Golden Seed and Time is the
instrument of the Supreme Consciousness to draw out, to extend its
involved, compacted sacred Contents into our world of time and
space, then we can easily understand that the aim of forces hostile
to this happening would be to somehow impede that movement, that
evolution of what has been involved. The only tactic – or rather we
should say, their only <i>strategy </i>- has to be obstruction,
delay, holding back, restraining; or to use the more accurate Vedic
phrase, <i>penning in</i>.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue LT 45 Lt; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">
And thus we come to the grandest myth of all time, the Rig Veda. In
no other can we find such an accurate description of the<i> real</i>
world, the <i>real </i>labour, the <i>real process and goal</i>.
But, is it proper to continue calling this a ‘myth’? The Rig Veda is
the description of exactly what is detailed above. The ‘rays/cows’
that are <i>hoarded</i> in the<i> cave</i> by the hostiles is simply
the revelation of the exact nature of our work. But while in the
Vedic Age the process was certainly individual, or at least confined
to a small elite of individuals, that very same process has been
accomplished now for the entire Earth in this Aquarian Age of
universalisation. The miracle of this Age that we are blessed to
live in is that the Rig Vedic process serves the entire Earth. In
this lies the eternal nature of the Sanatana Dharma.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue LT 45 Lt; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">
<span style="font-size: small;"> For this purpose the Mother set on its
way the ‘fields’ where the Force of Inertia could finally be
vanquished. The Lord of Nations, otherwise called the Lord of
Falsehood, was imprisoned in that specific crossroads of latitude
and longitude to provide the sacred ‘field’ for the Third to bring
into being the Centre, the true Centre that can ‘fill the Void’. By
this it is meant the Void of the Ages, the depleted ‘centre’, the
result of a reversed direction of ALL yoga in India since the time
of the Buddha. There is no better confirmation than to note that
Gautam the Buddha is thought to be the 9<sup>th</sup> of Vishnu’s
Line of Ten Avatars – as incongruous as this is considering that his
message, mission and realisation were so totally un-Vedic! In this
manner the Buddha was made by the pundits, through no fault of his
own, to usurp the position of the true 9<sup>th</sup> Avatar of the
Line of Ten, Sri Aurobindo. This lone fact was the signal that the
Vedic Age had passed, the Age when Knowledge reigned supreme.
Darkness had truly descended to take possession of the land of the
Rishis.<br />
The great moment of transition in the evolving of the
zodiacal ages is passage from the 8<sup>th</sup> to the 9<sup>th</sup>.
Is it any wonder that the pundits of the day believed that the
so-called Kali Yuga began with the demise of Sri Krishna in the 8<sup>th</sup>
Age? That ‘void’ in the flow is indeed filled when a shift in
direction occurs – this being the true definition of a ‘dark age’, a
<i>kaliyuga</i>, and no other. Contrary to the Vedic way, the soul
is denied, the Earth is seen as hell and must be abandoned to her
own fate; nor can she ever hope to house a race of Immortals and to
be the place for a life divine to manifest. The highest energies of
the civilisation are thus drawn away from the centre of our ‘field’
on this third planet from the Sun, leaving a void which the agents
of Inertia can fill.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue LT 45 Lt; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue LT 45 Lt; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"><span style="font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">The task was
then to take possession of that centre once again. To pierce the
‘cave’ and liberate the hoarded rays/cows so that the rise from
below, the evolution that Agni leads, can reach the summit where the
full victory is achieved, where the Serpent Vritra, coverer of the
Sun, is finally vanquished. <br />
This is why a
‘field’ is demanded, a new Kurukshetra in this 9<sup>th</sup>
Manifestation, just as the former Kurukshetra served the 8<sup>th</sup>
Avatar of Vishnu so well in the Manifestation before ours, the 8<sup>th</sup>.
And it is exactly what has happened in the ‘fields’ the Mother set
on their way in 1968 and 1971. The Yoga required was identical to
the process described so minutely in the Rig Veda, the only
difference being – and it is a huge difference indeed – that the
scope is now universal.<br />
For this to
have occurred Supermind was demanded; without its descent that
universal victory could not have taken place. There would have been
no possibility of a harmony and integration of the One and the Many.
The Power of Inertia could not have been vanquished for the whole
Earth.</span><span lang="en-gb" style="font-family: "times new roman";"><br />
</span>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">Now that the
work is done we can reveal the fullest details of this momentous
turning point for the Earth. This Yoga, covering 27 years, had to
set in motion a <i>reverse direction</i> than what the city and
temple inaugurations brought into being in time, - for it is Time
itself that has been the aid in the Yoga. They went from outer to
inner. This counteracting Supramental Yoga moves from inner to
outer, from the point of Unity (the Chamber-Centre) to the
Multiplicity (the City).<br />
It took 27
years to gestate and bring into being the Mother’s Chamber
(1971-1998), all the while depleting the Lord of Nations of any
power to ‘sting’ by compressing him more and more tightly into a <i>
point</i>. Thereafter the laying of the Foundation Symbol-Stone of
the City-Consciousness took only 7 years, once the former labour was
completed and the ‘field’ of the Centre had been liberated: the true
Centre was in place. Though labour it was, now, happily, we can
state, <i>the work is done.<br />
</i>
Within the cycle of 9, or the ennead beginning in 1998, this 7-power
year, 2005, is of deepest importance; for it is now that the
centremost Axis is set in place (yogicly) by virtue of a <i>reversal</i>
that occurred in 2002 and continued to the present, culminating with
the laying of the Foundation Symbol-Stone of the City-Consciousness,
cleansed of all the ‘mixture’ of old that the Mother warned us of in
the <i>Matrimandir Talks</i>.<br />
In the midst of these two and a half years, from 2002 to
the present, the Yoga of the Chronicles was undertaken.
That brought the final demise of the Ignorance, trapped as it was in
the Shadow-Chamber expressly created for this most sacred purpose,
and of the greatest service imaginable to the Earth.<br />
By the spring of 2004 the ‘stinger’ was cut, the
power-source of Inertia was eliminated; it was rendered out of
bounds to the Usurpers. Thus the ‘purpose’ of the former city and
temple has been completed victoriously, dark though it was. But can
we really call it a <i>dark purpose?</i> Surely we cannot, in the
light of a total vision of the work we are engaged in. Those
‘fields’ were required until August 2005. But the Symbol
‘construction’ that was finalised then brought their reason for
being to an end.<br />
The Mother’s inspired symbol, true foundation of the
City, even as her symbol is the true plan of the Chamber in her
Temple, has been constructed and set in place in the soil of
Earth-Consciousness,</span></span> announcing
the glorious news, through this White Stone, of the extension of the
Work now to the four corners of the Earth.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">Remarkable
things are happening in the world. We might call this moment a time
of convergence – i.e., when events and the people through whom they
unfold are brought identifiably within the scope of a supramental
framework in the form of what is called <i>a model of the universe</i>.
But this would not be discernible if we did not have certain tools
of Knowledge which allow us to bring the multiple dimensions of our
world of time and space into focus in this model. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">As these
Chronicles and Updates have proven, the Mother’s original design and
plan of the Inner Chamber conform to Sri Aurobindo’s description of
<i>the contents of the</i> <i>soul, </i>-<i> </i>the Chamber ‘closed
and mute’ of his epic poem, <i>Savitri.</i> The Mother simply
penetrated that sacred precinct to provide humanity with this
special and unique <i>model of the Cosmic Truth</i>. For it is in
the inner depths, the cave in the heart where Guha stands that the
truth foundation of the universe is discovered. Veil after veil is
removed as one plunges within to the core of material creation, and
not to the Beyond, because the soul is only experienced <i>in
material creation</i> – this universe of 9.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">
The Mother defined that number-power to the author/convenor as
‘creation in matter’. And it is with this clue which she provided in
1971, the clue that revealed the more arcane mysteries of the 9,
that the door was unlocked and one could enter the chamber of the
soul.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">
The Mother bequeathed to humanity a<i> </i>Soul in the form of an
architectural masterpiece. But as we know, the building she set on
its way in Auroville did not live up to this sublime truth. In every
way it was disfigured. Thus today in place of this greatest of all
architectural revelations, we have a faithful reproduction of the
ego and not the soul.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">
Energies continue to be poured into that endeavour by the community
and its faithful followers. One wonders what purpose is served. How
and why is it that a choice can be made <i>consciously</i> to put
this shadow in place of the Mother’s revelation? Further, the
question that arises is why this aberration came to pass at all? How
is it that the Mother did not draw to her side the genial architect,
Christopher Alexander, for example, instead of what we have had to
contend with? For we have
his own words to describe the aspects of human nature that interfere
with the descent of a building which in his vision embodies a
‘living centre’. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 1.0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"> ‘It is
very hard to allow the wholeness to unfold. To do it, we must pay
attention, all the time, only to the wholeness, which exists in what
we are doing. That is hard, very hard. If we allow ourselves the
luxury of paying attention to our own ideas, we shall certainly
fail… The things which can and do most easily get in the way, are my
own <i>idea</i>, my thoughts about what to do, my desires about what
the building “ought” to be, or “might” be, my striving to make it
great, my concern with my own thoughts about it, my exaggerated
attention to others people’s thoughts. All this can damage the
building, because it replaces the wholeness which actually exists at
any given stage with some “idea” of what it ought to be.<br />
‘The reason why I must try and make the building as a gift to God is that
this state of mind is the only one which reliably <i>keeps me
concentrated on what is</i>, and keeps me away from my own
vainglorious and foolish thoughts.’ (<i>The Nature of Order</i>,
Book 4, p.304) </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">
We know that the architects and the community involved with the
Matrimandir were not in the poise Christopher Alexander describes
during the execution of the construction. Alexander states that it
is hard to hold on to this ‘state of mind’. But isn’t that what
could and should have been done when these instruments were given
this unique gift by the Mother? Christopher Alexander emphasises
time and again in the last Book of his magnum opus, <i>The Nature of
Order,</i> that the builder must execute in this poise: <i>‘The core
of this necessary state of mind is that you make each building in a
way which is a gift to God. It belongs to God. It does not belong to
you. It is made to serve God, to glorify God. It is not made to
glorify you…’</i> (Ibid, p. 304)<br />
This was not
written by a yogi or a follower of any known path, much less the
Mother’s. It is based on his own experience, his discoveries of the
true nature of architecture and the poise the builder must maintain
for something divine to imbue the creation. Throughout his writings
one hears echoes of the Vedic Age. His description of those<i>
centres</i> as ‘blazing ones’, ‘blazing furnaces’ is a purely Vedic
<i>seeing</i>. This western architect, with no connection to the
Mother or Sri Aurobindo, has experienced the essence of the Vedic
Agni, not as a concept or a philosophical formulation, but as a <i>
living truth</i>. He is not Indian and therefore cannot be said to
be mouthing a tradition he has inherited but not earned. Yet this
western professor emeritus at the University of California at
Berkeley has lived the Vedic experience.<br />
The question one may legitimately ask is why the Mother
did not draw into her entourage such a person? After all, it was in
the 1970s and 80s that most of his philosophy of architecture was
formulated – the very time that the new cosmology took shape which
provided the keys of Knowledge to understand the Mother’s creation.
And let us not forget that those were the years when a ‘distilling’
process was in effect to ‘sort out the people’ who could build her
temple, once her entourage had refused to comply. Surely Christopher
Alexander was feeling the effects of that specialised action of the
Supramental Shakti precisely in his field of endeavour, though
unbeknown to him.</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"><br />
But in India this was not meant to be; her action was
deflected. Instead we had to bear time and again mocking, scoffing,
ridicule, and bad will, on the part of those handling Matrimandir
matters; </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">only to
discover now, in this time of convergence, that there is at least
one architect in the world who can perhaps <i>understand</i>.<br />
Christopher Alexander writes about the effects of a
wrong poise in a manner that closely resembles our own experience
regarding the Matrimandir: <i>‘All of this might make me famous as
an architect, but it damages the building. It will make me replace
care and humble concern for doing just what is required with a frame
of mind which wants to shout, just slightly, at each moment, while
the design is unfolding. This problem potentially affects every
single one of the 100,000 steps which I go through to make the
building. So it will infect it very deeply, change its character not
in a subtle way, but altogether…’</i> (Ibid, p.304-5)<br />
The Matrimandir Action Committee, particularly this
author and convenor, were continuously criticised and maligned (CIC
4, for example) for insisting that every detail of the Mother’s plan
must be respected in the interests of its <i>unity</i> – what
Alexander calls ‘wholeness’. When this is contravened he writes, <i>
‘The effect is tiny, but its impact is enormous.’</i> (Ibid, p.305)<br />
What would Christopher Alexander have to say about the
not-so-tiny alterations in the Mother’s design, about what the
totally altered ‘stand’ introduced; or the transparent ‘crystal’ in
lieu of a translucent globe; or the 23m diameter instead of 24, as
she requested time and again; or the altered entrance from a 15-step
rise into the Chamber to two doors piercing the walls? One after
another the builders imposed their ‘ideas’ and brought into the
design not only ‘tiny’ deviations from the true inspiration that
Christopher Alexander describes, but major, fundamental changes
while all the time knowing that the Mother insisted there should be
‘no changes’.<br />
What is far worse – and which certainly an architect of
Christopher Alexander’s calibre could never fathom – is that the
builders and administration insisted throughout the construction
process that what they were building was ‘the Mother’s original’.
This, by far, is the truly unbelievable aspect of the saga. In view
of what MAC has brought to light, would there be any legitimate
reason to continue pouring energy and money into that shadow
building? Ignorance of the facts can no longer be claimed.<br />
Be that as it may, the question that remains is why the
Mother would not draw into the endeavour an architect such as
Alexander with whom no such problems would have arisen, as was the
case when she constructed the Ashram guest house, Golconde. In
Update 9 this question was partially answered. Indeed, the
distortions and unpleasantness that resulted provided the right <i>
field</i> to bring down the Knowledge and to thus allow the Third in
the Solar Line to fulfil her role of ‘bridge builder’ between the
old and the new.<br />
The Mother
never explained how her architectural plan could further the ‘future
realisation’ – nor did anyone ask; after the 18-day confrontation,
she dropped the matter. It was clear that another way would have to
be found, beyond the confines of that old creation, - indeed, a <i>
new </i>way.<br />
And thus it came to pass that with the Mother’s inspired
and unique legacy in hand all the contours of the New Way were
revealed. This is the work of the third stage of the Descent,
without which we would be left with nothing but shadows in place of
light.</span></div>

It would be simplistic to reply that ‘the world was not ready’ for

precisely because <b><i>the world <u>WAS</u> ready</i></b> that
everything unfolded as it did: the old consciousness served the One

‘A massive building or a small one…has life, is deep, affects us,

In the just published Volume 3 of the series, <i>The New Way</i>,
written 22 years ago, the poise is described that the artist of the

portion is taken from Chapter 17, page 234, entitled, <i>Creativity
and the Gnostic Being:</i> </span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"> ‘Thus we
come to an aspect of this study which deals with the creation of new
art forms, new methods of communication, new cultural and
technological expressions which evolve from an individual whose
consciousness-being is poised in an axial balance and therefore who
does not create in the midst of the turbulence that the lower levels
of consciousness throw up when inspiration descends into these
inferior and hitherto unillumined planes of consciousness. The
first prerequisite therefore is a realisation of one’s core, one’s
true stable constant, one’s inner Chamber, - even as in the Mother’s
Temple the inner Room holds that core from which the lines of a
perfect equilibrium are extended to the outer form via Time and
Space fields.<br />
‘Admittedly this is a complex and difficult process. It is the goal
of the integral yoga, - the harmonisation of all parts of the being,
of all four planes of existence. It is the acquisition of a true
centre, a real and not an illusory inner luminary around which the
individual finds his or her balance and participates in the
evolutionary movement nourished by this truth-conscious source and
thus serving in the establishment of a society of gnosis. He remains
no longer a tool for the perpetuation of the old mental creation
that orbits the ego. Therefore the way in which to engage in the
creative process in the effort to establish a new order is the one
described throughout this volume: the [centre] of each individual
must be found, which permits the aspirant to locate his or her place
in the larger framework of the gnostic society, - on the basis of
true collaboration and harmonious participation, adding to the
community the light of a real inner worth and the power to give
expression in life to this luminous soul-power.</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"><br />
‘The supreme difficulty lies in the fact that the human
race, as a whole, orbits a void in the centre of its collective
consciousness, which in turn is representative of the void in the
consciousness-being of each individual. Energies collapse into this
void at a certain point in the march of Time…which is the real
dilemma of the human race, the crux of the problem of karma, for
this collapse and subsequent compression defies <i>change</i>.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 1.0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"> ‘The void
that is then unveiled in the ordinary human being cannot sustain the
subsequent journey through Time in order to complete the Circle, or
to experience <i>whole time</i>. Thus this precious energy of Time
which is released either in death, or sex, or whatever, simply falls
into this void, collapses like a mighty star in the heavens. It then
compresses itself into a knot, a virtual black hole, and gradually
defies all effort to become unravelled. After numerous passages
through the Circle, after countless completions of the 9-cycle, this
central Knot is so tight, so fixed that it cannot be undone in this
lifetime with the eye of awareness awake in this physical universe.
It draws upon itself all the areas of the being and finally succumbs
to death. But this death is proper to all four planes of existence.
Each part of the being experiences the collapse of energies, has its
own knot, as it were. Thus, for a new society to emerge we see very
clearly that the individual members must know the means by which
this void in consciousness is replaced by a fecund, creative womb.
This means, first and foremost, that creation itself must be
accepted, this Body of the Absolute. Next, it must be accepted that
the purpose of incarnation is to live the experience of the Absolute
in creation and that the human being can and will serve as the
channel for this truth-conscious experience of God in material
creation.<br />
‘The artist of the new society is one therefore who creates on the
basis of a fecund womb in the centre of his or her being. Thus it is
understood that the realisation of one’s Godhead is fundamental if
new forms are to manifest. Indeed, a member of the society becomes a
vehicle through whom the Creator creates and each artistic
expression is reflective of this process, the same as the creation
itself which is simply an <i>unfolding</i> from within, from the
Seed, and a constant flowering from this luminous Bija in an act of
utter spontaneity.<br />
</span><span lang="en-gb" style="font-family: "times new roman";"> </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">
‘In the ideal society the multiple aspect of creation is gloriously
expressed in the varied manifestations of the community’s cultural,
artistic and intellectual products. But this means that such
creations come into being from the core of psychic plenitude and not
the void we now know. At present only rarely is this the basis of
any artistic and intellectual expression. Indeed, it is safe to say
that we have not known this pure source as the fount of inspiration
at all. In these volumes we have used the Mother’s Chamber as an
example of such an act of creation from a fecund central womb of
consciousness in order to offer the student a concrete example of
the emergence of a pure element from the plane of truth seen in the
light of the soul; and how, when the consciousness is not disturbed
by vital and mental turbulence, the result is a true and faithful
reproduction of that element in our physical world. The Mother’s
consciousness, being perfectly poised, did not throw up stormy
currents in the act of seeing and subsequent translation of the
object seen into the measure of our universe and our solar system.
But in this example we do see how the architects obscured the
creation by their own waves of unconsciousness. And we also see that
in order to appreciate the true nature and worth of the Mother’s
creative act, a consciousness free from turbulence is also needed.
Both artist and observer must be poised in the stable core; the
observed and the observer merge in the experience of fulfilling
Oneness…’ (<i>The New Way,</i> Volume 3, Chapter 17, ‘Descent of
Divinity and the Flowering of Godhead’). </span></div>

Conclusion</span></b><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"><br />
We must close this series with a paradox. To attempt to unravel its
complex sense we shall use the descent of the Mother’s Chamber as
the experimental field where we may test our understanding, insofar
as it is ‘the symbol of the future realisation’ and must therefore
hold the light that we need to illumine what may be obscure for the
present. <br />
</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">
It is disturbing for some residents of Auroville and the
Ashram, particularly for those involved in the construction of
Matrimandir, to read these Chronicles. They pretend that MAC has had
no impact on their work ‘for the Mother’, and they therefore
continue unperturbed, as if nothing had transpired to cause any
doubt in themselves or in the community regarding their activities. Time and
again MAC has stated that, apart from all else, the really
unacceptable aspect to these thirty years of involvement with the
Mother’s temple has been the <i>deception</i> surrounding the
execution. To date there is no attempt to clear the air and seek a
way to rectify at least this aspect of the problem. In normal
society, given the fact that public funds are involved, this would
be the least one would expect. But not so with a community that
pretends to have attained great spiritual heights. Arrogance appears
to reign supreme; and that alone would preclude any possibility of
those involved to be or to have been channels for the creative
process described above. There was not only turbulence caused by
this arrogance; it was a veritable tsunami! In such a circumstance,
naturally the Mother’s vision suffered the fate of a total
distortion.<br />
But, as stated above, the true creative process in the
Gnostic Being is one that involves both observer and observed. This
means that just to appreciate the higher aspects of the Chamber, if
they had been incorporated in the Auroville construction, that
observer would have to be poised in the right consciousness as well.
In this lies the experience of oneness.<br />
The matter becomes more complex, however, in terms of a
descent where an entirely <i>new</i> Model of the Universe is to be
the beacon light for the future. When Christopher Alexander laments
that physics and its resultant cosmology, developed over the past
300 years, has brought the human being to accept a purposeless
mechanistic view of the world, he is absolutely correct. And
further, when he, like other perceptive seekers, insists that <i>a
new cosmology</i> is demanded in order to rectify this wrong
direction imposed by physicists and cosmologists whose models do
nothing to heal the separative consciousness and offer a vision of
oneness in the place of the disunity we now know, he is once again
perfectly in tune with the New Way.<br />
But where we part ways is in the model he offers.
Interestingly, he is an architect, and the Mother’s vision with its
accompanying new cosmological formula, is precisely in the form of
AN ARCHITECTURAL MODEL. Thus Alexander can appreciate its value
given his approach to both architecture and cosmology. And this
brings us back to the paradox.<br />
Totally lacking in Alexander’s latest model (2004) is
TIME. Thus, when he writes of ‘living centres’ and a <i>dynamic</i>
model, and yet makes no mention of the Time Factor and does not seek
to integrate that into his model, we cannot see how this would help
change matters effectively to alter our perception of the world.
However, the Mother’s model does precisely that: She reveals the
means by which time and space are harmonised and become equal and
complementary parts in this revolutionary and unique model.</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";"><br />
But the matter is not so simple. For the paradox lies in
the fact that if Time is to be incorporated then <i><u>precision of
measurement is</u></i><u> <i>indispensable</i></u>: without that
precision – which the Mother again and again insisted upon – Time is
nowhere in the building. And for measurements to be ‘precise’ in
this <i>new way,</i> which alone among all cosmological models
integrates Time<i>, <u>knowledge is the first and most essential
ingredient.</u> </i>Precision does not arise ‘spontaneously’,
contrary to Satprem’s explanation in a letter to the builders,
simply by their dedication and bhakti, or their poise of
consciousness while building (see CIC 2). Such a structure can only
come into being <i>in full knowledge and with total awareness of
exactly what one is constructing </i>– because that is the meaning
of the next stage for the evolving human consciousness, the Gnosis
of the Supramental. If this were not the case we could not call the
Mother’s revolutionary Model of the Universe the symbol of the
FUTURE realisation.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "times new roman";">
To approximate this state while building, Hindu tradition does seek
to make Knowledge the foundation of the builder’s approach by
providing elaborate s<i>hastras</i> or scriptures to the Stapaththi
(the architect) which seek to capture the higher essence. But it
goes no further; it does not demand that the builder himself reach
that higher state of consciousness. Indeed, he is not allowed to
interfere with the vision of the Seer by interjecting his own ideas
without that same foundation of a yogic realisation and its
accompanying knowledge. However, in this case involving a creation
descending from the truth-consciousness planes, more is demanded.
Observer and observed must partake in equal measure of the
experience. We have in this example a means to understand the
difference between the old and the new, - the new way of the
Supermind where observer and observed are one.<br />
Knowledge is
the foundation of the Gnostic Being. Knowledge, full and complete,
was demanded in order to be able to implement the measurements the
Mother gave; and then only is the indispensable TIME FACTOR brought
into being in a physical structure on Earth to make the model <i>
dynamic.<br />
</i>To sum
up, the time factor (which alone makes the Mother’s plan that <i>new
model of the universe</i> at the heart of the new cosmology),
demands precise measurements; precise measurements come into being
only when Gnosis exists, which therefore allows the essential unity
and wholeness to descend. We were naïve to have expected the
architects and builders of Matrimandir to have lived this special
process without proper guidance. But it needs to be stated that they
were offered the Knowledge, which the Mother provided through those
channels she had ‘sorted out’; but not only did they refuse to
accept the offering, their answer was mockery and ridicule. It is
hard to understand how this poise can usher in the new world.<br />
Finally, in
view of this resistance, their only contribution was to provide the
conditions in the field that would force the descent of, precisely,
that special Gnosis. And this did come to pass.<br />
That unique<i>
model of the universe,</i> with its revolutionary cosmology, now
stands at the heart of the Mother’s new creation. It is the eternal
Source, replenishing members of the gnostic society whenever contact
is made with that pool of Light. For those with ‘eyes to see’, the
quality and level of the Knowledge it provides is unmistakable. But
for those who have not attained such levels, it continues to mean
nothing; it is irrelevant to their day-to-day living which goes on
in accordance with their level of consciousness within the
boundaries of the old creation.<br />
Now, after
the activities of the Matrimandir Action Committee, there can be no
misjudging of one for the other. This in itself reveals the sacred
nature of both offerings<i>,</i> negative and positive. Through
their negation humanity has been brought one step closer to the
experience of <i>seeing, </i>it is being uplifted and finally those
former boundaries with their inherent limitations will be expanded
to eventually encompass the new Gnosis, just as the Mother intended,
by Supramental processes where observer and observed live the
experience of Oneness. This is the legacy she bequeathed to us in
her original vision and architectural plan of the Inner Chamber. </span></div>
