According to the ancient Mayan calendar, on December 23, 2012, ends a big cosmic cycle. Some people dramatize the things and interpret this date as an end of the world. But actually, this is just the end of one cycle and the beginning of a new one. In the Mayan Calendar, after the end of the world, there begins something called The Bill Smart Era. No one is sure what that means. We can only wonder. Wang Jianjun, Hanlin Academy New Email names for you! Get the Email name you#39;ve always wanted on the new @ymail and @rocketmail.

Re: [Zen] 2012: Natural cycles and natural thinking
What, no way? Yes, there are ways. Bill Smart's way: no samsara, no nirvana, no suffering, no fun. Tantric Buddhist way: reincarnated tulkus (permanent samsara), attaining Buddhahood in this very life (immediate nirvana), living in a mountain cave for 12 years (a great deal of suffering), performing sex rituals (a lot of fun). These are two opposites. What is your choice? Mind you, you must take the whole thing, not just part of the story. For instance, you cannot perform sex rituals without living in solitude for 12 years. Otherwise, you would be a phoney Tantric Buddhist.
