          Truly remarkable is that in spite of the fact that the Mother revealed to Satprem her astonishing capacity as the Supramental Shakti, involving NUMBERS and a very special ORDER and PRECISION, this very same person a year later seems to have forgotten her confidences entirely and discarded those numbers she then applied in her chamber plan as meaningless! 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.
          Because of its connection to the descent of the Vision, we are obliged to reproduce her description in full to prove the point. Any sincere and unbiased reader can verify that the ‘ordering of numbers’ the Mother was engaged in is exactly the shape the Knowledge took in the form of a new cosmology which would be the key to the masterpiece of sacred geometry and architecture she would bequeath to the world almost exactly one year later. Especially significant to note is that she was commanded to tell the disciple of this special activity and have the experience recorded for posterity, particularly for those people she was ‘sorting out’, so as to verify the Knowledge and its source. We need to be grateful that these recordings were made and preserved. (In the following, only the irrelevant and distracting input from the Mother’s interlocutor has been left out; however, the full text is available in L’Agenda de M
ère, Vol. 10, Institut de Reserches Evolutives, Paris, 1981. The bold type is our emphasis of salient points to note, which are discussed further on in this Chronicle and will be taken up in future Chronicles).

    …I remember a vision when I was doing a work with numbers during the night, and I was putting numbers – numbers and groups of numbers – I was putting them in certain positions. And that is what I wanted to tell you. In the ‘dream’ (if one can call it a dream), I told myself that I should show you this.
    Now I remember…it comes like that [gesture behind the head]. Well, it is associated with groups of people who are all over, groups of people spread out in the world and connected with …what planet? Planets? I don’t know. And I remember that I told myself (all this during the night, not awake) when I was making this arrangement… I still see the arrangement of numbers I was making, which were totally living – numbers were living things – groups of numbers that I was arranging, and there was an arrangement like this, like that [the Mother seems to move about pieces of a puzzle]… You were there and I was telling you that when it was like this [the Mother indicates a certain arrangement] it expressed a certain thing, and when it was like that [another arrangement of the puzzle], it expressed a certain other thing. And at the same time I was saying: ‘It doesn’t only express it, but it has a power to realise that thing…’
    All that is there [the Mother makes a gesture behind her head to indicate a memory there], it is there somewhere. And it is in connection with groups of people who are in different parts of the Earth.
    It is… well…it was the ‘numbered’ expression – the numbered expression of the application to life in a coming realisation: life to come, but not very far away; for example, in the next century which is beginning now.
    So this is what probably stayed in my memory and which was the reason why I wanted to tell you something. But I still see the arrangements of numbers. I spent a long, long time arranging them. A long time.
    A truer application, more universal, and with spiritual knowledge; the principle of the position (place) and the utilisation of individuals on earth. Two columns here, one column there; but living columns.
