In 1970 Narad, who had been asked by the Mother to begin work on the Matrimandir Gardens had been shown by Huta the same sketch drawn by the Mother of the central area; he had photopraphed it and annotated it.

  Center Sketch

In the following letter to Roger dated 17.10.77, Narad refers to it thus:

"Dear Roger,
   I have had a xerox copy made of the sketch Mother made in 1965 on the 25th of June. Huta has the original and years ago i was able to have photos made. I have numbered the sketch and here are the explanations:

1.The "mountain" which is NW is to be built from the excavation of the lake. The north-western side is about the lowest point of the area. Due west is a bit lower perhaps. I have always felt the mountain in the north although as I have told you this is just a feeling which I believe is also in harmony with the landscape. Now your letter comes bringing much the same feeling with your idea that the mountain should not compete with the Matrimandir. There is also another point, that the mountain if placed in the north, would not be at the entrance before coming to the Matrimandir, but after one had received the full experiment of the Matrimandir.
