*Toward the completion of Matrimandir, our soul, guide and anchor into
Her world.
“Seeking for the right action, the unity of all those who feel concerned is a
necessary condition.
Unity around our soul – not around this or that model, this or that design, this or
that person.
(…
‘Not that some give way to others, but that on the contrary all should combine
their efforts to achieve a more comprehensive and perfect result…’
– Douce Mère.)
What do we want for Matrimandir, and what do we not want…?
These are suggestions for the formulation of some basics:
. We want the Sphere: whole, evident, simple; we want to enter it, to experience
its material action, its power of change and initiation to the new consciousness; we
want it to be a sacred place, in the sense of being exclusively the instrument of the
Mother’s Force…
Therefore we tend to see it, from the inside, as a smooth and closed sphere.
. We want Matrimandir to be surrounded by beauty, with the collaboration of
Nature; we want it to be simply beautiful, at all hours, in all weathers, always new
and always itself, in complete peace; we want it to reign silently at the centre of
the Mother’s Garden…
Therefore we tend to see it, from the outside, as a smooth and fully closed sphere,
covered with noble materials, neither too bright nor too dark, materials that
respond with all the states of light and harmonise naturally with the presence of the
garden and the water.
Having stated these basics, we consider that:
. At present, there is no satisfactory model; the actual, living solution that
corresponds to the actual, living Matrimandir, has not been found yet; and this is
the challenge that Matrimandir is actually putting before us all.
. According to these same basics it is obvious, besides matters of tastes and
opinions, and even besides technical pros and cons, why the model with discs is not
satisfactory.
. There is truly a call for us to gather our energies, open our minds and prayfully
work to reach together the fullness and evidence of Matrimandir, our soul.”
(PS: This paper could be used thus: be circulated for everyone’s perusal before the

of October; and at the meeting of the 15
th
, when we have to assess the
situation and the nature of the challenge, those who identify with what is expressed
above could simply refer to it openly as a reference point for the process. This
paper is un- signed for the only reason that it is of no use unless it reflects and
expresses well enough the perceptions of more than one individual.)
