Mahavan
(Sk.). Literally, Great Rythym. (LHR I, p 250)
Mahavan and Chotavan are the most characteristic rhythms of Fire. Possessing these rhythms one can easily approach the element of fire. This is not a coercive invocation, but only the conscious entrance into the sphere the meaning of which you consider essential. One must understand rhythms, for how else do we bring convincingness to actions? Even the half-dead sand arranges itself into special designs in response to vibration. To how much greater an extent is man influenced by rhythm! Not sorcery but knowledge will give man the way to transfiguration; an undelayable way, because thus was humanity urged during the days of the end of Atlantis. (AY, 357)
Only the heart which embraces the world can beat in the rhythm of Mahavan. (INF I, 364)
If Mahavan corresponds to earthly causes, the vibrations of the Silver Bridge are necessary during disturbances in the Subtle World. (H, 357)
The rhythms of Mahavan and Chotavan are the rhythms of the Cosmic Fire. At a certain degree of achievement of the Fiery Yoga our organism begins to perceive these rhythms (which come from space) and to resound to them.
