Mayan Myth or Mayhem
Conspiracy come, conspiracies go
It would only be me
crazy enough to try and put into perspective a conversation that has invaded
our dinner parties in the last month, that is apart from what country would be
best to evacuate to if SA goes topsy turvy.
It’s that bloody wave that everybody is talking about and the movie ‘2012’
last Sunday didn't help one little bit, ok so you are a none-believer and while
your mate is stocking up with tinned food in a cave on the top of the
Helderberg, you have a moment while booking for the West Coast, ‘perhaps the
Drakensberg would be nice’? I hear them
shouting from the pulpit, ‘nobody knows the time or date of the final judgement
day’. So what is conspiracy, a man deduced perspective with no legitimate
scientific fact to back it up, really? We all know that UFO sightings have
increased by sixty percent in the last two years and I mean NATO jets chasing
these infernal creature around the globe, filmed by hundreds, even children, god
knows thanks to Blackberry we all have a good camera in our pocket. So why
haven’t these Aliens ever come down to meet us, I think it was Calvin &
Hobbes that quoted "Sometimes
I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe
is that none of it has tried to contact us,"
and I tend to agree, it wasn’t that long ago that we burned babies in ovens,
blew up cities, wall up nations and burn our forests, and next destroy our
underground rivers in the Karoo?
The latest underwater
photography of a large Platheosaurus in Lake Windermere- Eire or the countless
photographs of the Loch Ness monster in Scotland are old hat, notwithstanding
that the Japanese have actually pulled the remains of that prehistoric sea
creature out of the water and the Chinese have thousands of eyewitness accounts
and photographs of a similar creature that actually attacked fishing boats. But
wait a minute that’s impossible didn't science teach us that comets rained down
on earth and killed all the dinosaurs, accept the crocodiles and Coelacanth? Ok
so Julian Assange, the Wiki-leak ‘terrorist’ releases photographs of a
prehistoric Mammoth grazing in a Russian reserve, NATO jets chasing UFO’s, a
prehistoric ostrich running wild and countless other X Factor secrets that Big
Brother prefers to be under lock and key. Then ofcourse grandiose Big Brother recruiting
thousand of IT wiz kids to plant misinformation on any profound discovery like
the remains of a mermaid washed up on a Thai beach after the Tsunami. Oh yes
the ‘Moonwalk’, well we were there, planted our flag and decided never to go
back, by now with our advanced technology would have allowed us a manned space
station, but let’s rather explore Mars?
The Mayan Calendar
Right lets get serious,
we now all expecting a wave to wash our sins away, holiday homes included, and
my favourite Belgium Waffle shop on the Strand beachfront. Ever since I can
remember seers and prophetic Christians have spoke of dreams of a wave wiping
out the shoreline towns and we all assumed a metaphoric vision. Firstly lets
not underestimate the Mayans who were certainly ahead of their time even though
blood sacrifices were very much part of their culture, but then again it was BC
and so were many other Cultural tribes . The Mayan preferred human sacrifice
and Christians certainly have a connection, was it not the blood of Jesus that
holds eternal redemption and forgiveness. The Mayans were not verbatim prophets
and never intended to be even though writings such as ‘Two large birds will destroy a city in the North’ seem to point
fingers at the 9/11 disaster. The Maya is a
Mesoamerican civilisation based in the pre-Colombian Americas (2000 BC to AD
250), The Mayans calculated that from 1999 we have 13 years to realize
the changes in our conscious attitude, to stray from the path of
self-destruction and instead move onto a path that opens our consciousness to
integrate us with all that exists. To the Maya,
time was cyclical opposed to lineal time. My old man
(R.IP.Aubrey Noone) always said solar flares will one day leave us helpless and
considering that this world runs by satellite it makes sense, even our music we
now download, so hang onto your LPS and cd’s? The Mayans believe the Sun will receive
a 'spark' of light which will cause it to shine more intensely, (solar flares)
which will change the Sun's magnetic field causing a displacement in the earth’s
rotation. Because of this movement, they
predicted that great catastrophes would be produced. It is after this, the
Mayans say, we will be ready to go through the door transforming our
civilization from one based on fear to a vibration much higher in harmony, all
sounds very ‘new age’ cool to me.
Contrary to
perception the Mayans never disappeared but certainly the Spanish conquistadors destroyed many, millions of people speak Mayan languages today. So in hindsight the Mayans did not predict a wave will destroy this world
in one day,
they believed this is the end of a
third failed world as we know it, nobody is going to argue with that? The first
I assume before the flood, the second did not go too well under the law, so Jesus
arrived and we hanged him on the cross. The third World (excuse the pun) we
have certainly messed up, so something has to give and looks like old mother
earth is starting to get really angry. The Mayans ended their calendar on the
21st, Dec 2012 and I assume the next world is about to dawn?
Certainly climate changes are getting seriously radical and ‘Hurricane Sandie’
was just one part of a bigger rupture. The
Mayans were trying to tell us to change our ways not just in actions on this
planet, but our consciousness and attitude. At the end of the day we all
have to look inwards or as the ‘Good Book’ says ‘salvation, an on-going process
that we have to work out with fear and trembling’. Bob Dylan said, ‘get out of the kitchen if you can’t lend a
hand’ so unlike Nostradamus and many other prophets, this is really a cyclic
interpretation that something global may give way on the 21st So
fellow man it ain’t the end but the beginning of the end and if you like me who
believes unseen battles rage between angels and demigods and we are more frequently
experiencing the vibration of that or simply that the earth’s plates are
shifting, no harm in storing the grain houses lest ‘Mad Max 3’ with Charlise Theron
riding a dune buggy through the grass of Kuilsrivier becomes a real time thing.
