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 CIC 11. ‘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.
Those boundaries kept both the Mother and Sri Aurobindo at labour in the ‘old creation’. This means that they worked from above in the manner of a descent. It is only at the third and fourth levels that the work from below 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 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).’

‘Come, let us slay him and end his course!’
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 revelation 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 real 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 simultaneous time. This is the property of the Solar World, the ancient swar. 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’. [4]

[4] Marshall Payne, an engineer, presented a theory in the latest issue of Atlantis Rising (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.
          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’.
          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.
          Regarding the Mother’s Chamber and the new way cosmology, in the exposition presented here of the passage to Swar where higher laws operate, the key factor is also time. One enters the zone of simultaneous time. 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 the Core is the world.
