I don’t really know that much about it and certainly shouldn’t be taken as an authority. Much of this is just what I have gleaned from glimpses I have gained while trying to keep in touch with it in spare moments over the last few years. The first part is meant to be fact. I hope I’ve got all the details at least mostly right. Many of you may know most of this and more. The Mayans never actually thought that Dec 21 was going to be the end of the world. In fact, until 2010 the Mayans never even talked about the ending of their calendar at all. The Mayans are, in general, quite happy and comfortable to stay to themselves. Not many are welcome into their world and very few ever leave. So there has not been much communication of what they believe or don’t believe, until the last couple of years, with anyone. But more than a decade ago some Mayans apparently did come to the US to college here and mentioned that their calendar ended on Dec 21. They had no idea what that meant or what was going to happen after that. So the Judeo-Christian apocalyptic habit of thinking in this country turned it into the end of the world. And that concept went around the world. EVERYONE around the world, as far as I can tell from my travels and living with so many of other cultures, knew that Dec 21 was ‘The Day’. But 2 years ago, the Mayan elder who is the Prophesy Keeper and Day Keeper, Don Alejandro, did start to talk about the end of the calendar, and in order to quell the fear, he did go as public as possible with the help of new age friends through internet and travels to other countries. His message was, ‘Don’t be afraid! The world is not going to end. It is the end of the current cycle of time and the beginning of a new one.’ The ending cycle started about 5000 years ago, about the time Kali Yuga started. The thing that amazes me was that he describes it in the same way and even with the same words that Maharishi describes the new age he worked towards for so many decades. Don Alejandro said the new time will be Heaven on Earth (those words were used on the internet, at least), a time of peace and harmony, where there will be no sickness or suffering. It will be a time when people will fly through the air like clouds. The world will be without boarders, and everyone will be able to travel anywhere without passports. He described it as a beautiful new time to very much look forward to. He also predicted that the day would be like any other day, like New Years eve. A new year is beginning, but it doesn’t feel immediately any different from the old year. These are prophesies that, as I understand it, have been around for 5000 years, but have been passed on from father to son, or keeper to keeper, silently. The Mayan people didn’t even really know. No one did until 2 years ago. There is no TM Movement in Guatemala, no local teachers. Raja Louis imported two Spanish Governors to teach there a number of years ago, and they have been knocking on doors, and knocking on doors for many years, and for so long found the doors all locked. Finally they found some openings, and finally they reached the Mayan elders. I have no idea how long it took for the elders to ‘get’ what the Governors were saying, but when they finally did, the response was kind of like, ‘Come in! We’re expecting you! This TM will eliminate disharmony in collective consciousness? It will create peace? Please, tell us what to do. You can teach us to fly? All the children should learn? Yes. We will start now.” Once it started, there was no stopping it. Last July, on Guru Purnima some Mayans had learned the practice (I forget, maybe a few thousand

more Woo-woo stuff: My wife (both parents born in Mexico), and I really wanted a child a few decades ago - it wasn't working, and we had started to attend adoption workshops. Took a vacation to Cancun and visited Tulum, a Mayan holy site on the coast. While within the walled enclosure, we found a temple dedicated to the goddess of fertility - we entered and said a prayer, and took a picture. It worked.
