The Maya Calendar – Part III

The Maya calendar has a similarity in the sacred Aztec calendar, which is called the Eagle Bowl. It represents the solar deity Tonatiuh. The allegedly accurate calendar has been in use in various forms for more than 2,000 years. A Zapotec prophecy, based on the Eagle Bowl, states: “After Thirteen Heavens of Decreasing Choice, and Nine Hells of Increasing Doom, the Tree of Life shall blossom with a fruit never before known in the creation, and that fruit shall be the New Spirit of Men.”

Allegedly, the 13 Heavens and 9 Hells were each 52 years long (1,144 years total, as sjown in the last two posts). Each of the 9 Hells were to be worse than the last. On the final day of the last Hell (August 17, 1987), Tezcatlipoca, god of death, would remove his mask of jade to reveal himself as Quetzelcoatl, god of peace. In the mythology of the Aztecs, there were 7 ages listed:

1. The first age of humankind ended with the animals devouring humans;

2. The second age was finished by wind;

3. The third age was finished by fire; and

4. The fourth age was finished by water. This fourth age or epoch ended in August 1987, and the Mayan calendar ends in December 24, 2012, and it is believed by the calendar prophets that only a few people will survive the catastrophe that is likely to ensue.

5. The fifth age, called The Golden Age, humanity will realize its spiritual destiny. This fifth age, also called Nahui-Olin (Sun of Earthquake), began in 3113 BC and will end on December 24, 2012. It is claimed to be the last destruction of human existence on Earth. The date coincides closely with that determined in “The Invisible Landscape” as “the end of history” indicated by computer analysis of the ancient Chinese oracle-calendar, the I Ching. 


6. The sixth age, we will realize God within ourselves.

7. The seventh age, we will become so spiritual that we will be telepathic.

According to those who study the Mayan Calendar, it provides an exact schedule for the Cosmic Plan and the unfolding of all things that come into existence. They claim there is now ample empirical evidence for this, something that shines new light on the age old questions of mankind. They claim that things do exist for a reason. The reason is that they fit into the divine cosmic plan. For those that seriously engage in a study of the Mayan Calendar, they claim, this soon becomes evident and the former materialist world view loses all relevance. They claim the Mayan Calendar is a gateway to the worlds of consciousness which the majority of humanity has been blinded to through the use of false or delusory calendars. What it does say is that step by step there will be a change in consciousness in the current Galactic Underworld that until October 28, 2011, will make Enlightenment a state that is increasingly more easily attained.

To the Mesoamrican Theorist, the Mayan Calendar is more accurate than the scriptures in recording the events of the past, all the way back to the Flood.

Personally, having studied the Mayan Calandar and all that has been written and said about it—I will take the scriptures any day.
