Maheshwari: the Residential area. Here the ground must not be levelled but be kept as it is with hillocks. There will be tall trees, grass, flowers, small ponds, fountains, rockeries - all natural things - nothing should be artificial.
  
Mahalakshmi : Cultural zone. In this area there will be art galleries, studios, museums, exhibition halls, an auditorium, schools, colleges and so on.
Musicians, dancers, painters, sculptors and other artists will have their houses - surrounded by natural beauties. The artists will be undisturbed and free to create new things...
You will pain the walls of the Auditorium�

Mahasaraswati: International zone. Pavilions of all the countries which present their customs and cultures.

Ah! Now the Mother Pavilion. There will be a separate island surrounded by a lake, tall trees, gardens with various kinds of flowers. I especially want the creepers of red hibiscus -Power- upon the outer dome of Mother's Pavilion. They will look like living jewels against the white marble. There will be rockeries in Japanese style, varieties of cactus, small waterfalls, small pools with lilies, lotuses, small bridges, various kinds of fountains and marble statues - one of them will be Shiva in deep trance. From his matted hair flows the water like a fountain�
There will be only one entrance. I want precious, semi-precious and artificial stones to be paved from the gate to the Mother's Pavilion in graduations, because they are full of meaning�
