Plate I — Cross-Section of the World
Fourteen realms from the crown star to the nadir. Touch any band, luminary, or the axis to read its lore across the four traditions.
Plate II — The Bhu Mandala from Above
Four rings of land under the pole star, each walled in mountains and sealed by its turning field. The lights wander; the land is still.
Plate III — The Calendar of Ages
The great year of 25,920 solar years: four yugas, twelve zodiacal ages, the soul-gates of Cancer and Capricorn, and the breath of the shell. The sky is not just a map — it is a checkpoint system. The needle marks this very day.
The 26,000-year figure blends precession with yuga language; classical counts differ. Anchors are set in data/calendar.js — Vision 2020 marks both the yuga turn and the dawn of Aquarius.
