India has known this from the earliest age of
man. It has also been known that a refocusing is demanded at certain
precise intervals. It is only the Evolutionary Avatar who can
accomplish this task for the civilisation. And once that is done, the
rest evolves organically and inevitably. As time moves on from that
newly established zero-point, or ayanamsha as it is called in
Sanskrit, everything that manifests from that ‘seed’ can only be an
extension of its innermost essence. A ‘seed’ thus established on the
basis of a proper alignment consists of the consciousness-being of the
Avatar.
Since this
‘seed’ of zero-time is the key aspect of the Divine Maya or
Measure, it stands that a mechanism has to be provided to grant the
Avatar this function. Vedic culture has preserved for us this
knowledge. Sri Aurobindo has fulfilled the mission by transforming the
knowledge into living truth. 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. To appreciate this the seeker must realise that
India’s
mis-measure is also 23.
Regarding the Auroville Matrimandir the 23 mis-measure concerns space (the
room’s diameter); for India and Hindu
civilisation that same mis-measure concerns time (the
Hindu calendar). Let us examine how this works and in the process we
will learn more about the Laws of Correspondence and Equivalence and
how they operate – then and now.
The Core’s ‘Soul
of Knowledge’
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. 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. In the Mother’s original plan, as
reported in Chronicle 8, this period ‘fills the Globe’, its time-light
coinciding exactly with the date that the Festival of Light ‘begins’ in
the measurement of the magical Ray.
Though it is still known
as Makar
Sankranti, this
Capricorn gateway is 23 degrees off! Applying this discrepancy to
the calendar, we note that Hindus celebrate this most crucial passage
of their collective destiny not at the only time it must be celebrated
– the 21/22 December solstice – but 23 days later, on 14/15 January.
The reason
given for this is in itself a study of phenomenal
proportions because this mis-measure alone can reveal everything that
has gone wrong in the subcontinent since time first began to ‘slip’, -
right up to the cementing of the wrong diameter in the Mother’s chamber
and all that that signifies, as these Chronicles have revealed. In
between we have a civilisation’s entire history mapped out in the only
way that ‘history’ has been recorded in Vedic civilisation: by means of
the cosmic harmony together with the zodiacal script.
This would
appear to legitimise the Auroville Matrimandir mis-measure
and add weight to Lohman’s contention that there can be no ‘error’
where Auroville and the Mother’s chamber are concerned (see CIC 4). In
a certain sense this was Lohman’s one and only profound perception which
will become evident further on.

pages 382 and 389 for details regarding Agni and the Goat and Varuna
and Makar.
