            To approximate this state while building, Hindu tradition does seek to make Knowledge the foundation of the builder’s approach by providing elaborate shastras 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.
            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 dynamic.
           
To sum up, the time factor (which alone makes the Mother’s plan that new model of the universe 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.
            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.
            That unique model of the universe, 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.
            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, negative and positive. Through their negation humanity has been brought one step closer to the experience of seeing, 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.
