The Mayan Calendar - The World Will Not End
CARLOS BARRIOS was born into a Spanish family on El Altiplano, the
highlands of Guatemala. His home was in Huehuetenango, also the
dwelling place of the Maya Mam tribe. With other Maya and other
indigenous tradition keepers, the Mam carry part of the old ways
on Turtle Island (North America). They are keepers of time,
authorities on remarkable calendars that are ancient, elegant and
relevant.
Mr. Barrios is a historian, an anthropologist and investigator.
After studying with traditional elders for 25 years since the age
of 19, he has also became a Mayan Ajq'ij, a ceremonial priest and
spiritual guide, Eagle Clan.
Years ago, along with his brother, Gerardo, Carlos initiated an
investigation into the different Mayan calendars. He studied with
many teachers. He says his brother Gerardo interviewed nearly 600
traditional Mayan elders to widen their scope of knowledge.
"Anthropologists visit the temple sites," Mr. Barrios says, "and
read the steles and inscriptions and make up stories about the
Maya, but they do not read the signs correctly. It's just their
imagination... Other people write about prophecy in the name of
the Maya. They say that the world will end in December 2012. The
Mayan elders are angry with this. The world will not end. It will
be transformed. The indigenous have the calendars, and know how to
accurately interpret it, not others."
The Mayan Calendars comprehension of time, seasons, and cycles has
proven itself to be vast and sophisticated. The Maya understand 17
different calendars, some of them charting time accurately over a
span of more than ten million years. The calendar that has
steadily drawn global attention since 1987 is called the Tzolk'in
or Cholq'ij. Devised ages ago and based on the cycle of the
Pleiades, it is still held as sacred. With the indigenous
calendars, native people have kept track of important turning
points in history. For example, the daykeepers who study the
calendars identified an important day in the year One Reed, Ce
Acatal, as it was called by the Mexicans. That was the day when an
important ancestor was prophesied to return, "coming like a
butterfly." In the western calendar, the One Reed date correlates
to Easter Sunday, April 21, 1519 the day that Hernando Cortez and
his fleet of 11 Spanish galleons arrived from the East at what is
today called Vera Cruz, Mexico.
When the Spanish ships came toward shore, native people were
waiting and watching to see how it would go. The billowing sails
of the ships did indeed remind the scouts of butterflies skimming
the ocean surface.
In this manner was a new era initiated, an era they had
anticipated through their calendars. The Maya termed the new era
the Nine Bolomtikus, or nine Hells of 52 years each. As the nine
cycles unfolded, land and freedom were taken from the native
people. Disease and disrespect dominated. What began with the
arrival of Cortez, lasted until August 16, 1987 - a date many
people recall as Harmonic Convergence. Millions of people took
advantage of that date to make ceremony in sacred sites, praying
for a smooth transition to a new era, the World of the Fifth Sun.
From that 1987 date until now, Mr. Barrios says, we have been in a
time when the right arm of the materialistic world is
disappearing, slowly but inexorably. We are at the cusp of the era
when peace begins, and people live in harmony with Mother Earth.
We are no longer in the World of the Fourth Sun, but we are not
yet in the World of the Fifth Sun. This is the time in-between,
the time of transition.
As we pass through transition there is a colossal, global
convergence of environmental destruction, social chaos, war, and
ongoing Earth changes.
All this, Mr. Barrios says, was foreseen via the simple, spiral
mathematics of the Mayan calendars. "It will change," Mr. Barrios
observes. "Everything will change." He said Mayan Daykeepers view
the Dec. 21, 2012 date as a rebirth, the start of the World of the
Fifth Sun. It will be the start of a new era resulting from and
signified by the solar meridian crossing the galactic equator, and
the earth aligning itself with the center of the galaxy.
At sunrise on December 21, 2012 for the first time in 26,000 years
the Sun rises to conjunct the intersection of the Milky Way and
the plane of the ecliptic. This cosmic cross is considered to be
an embodiment of the Sacred Tree, The Tree of Life, a tree
remembered in all the world's spiritual traditions. Some observers
say this alignment with the heart of the galaxy in 2012 will open
a channel for cosmic energy to flow through the earth, cleansing
it and all that dwells upon it, raising all to a higher level of
vibration.
This process has already begun, Mr. Barrios suggested.
"Change is accelerating now, and it will continue to accelerate."
If the people of the earth can get to this 2012 date in good
shape, without having destroyed too much of the Earth, Mr. Barrios
said, we will rise to a new, higher level.
But to get there we must transform enormously powerful forces that
seek to block the way.
A Picture of the Road Ahead
From his understanding of the Mayan tradition and the calendars,
Mr. Barrios offered a picture of where we are at and what may lie
on the road ahead: The date specified in the calendar Winter
Solstice in the year 2012 does not mark the end of the world. Many
outside people writing about the Mayan calendar sensationalize
this date, but they do not know. The ones who know are the
indigenous elders who are entrusted with keeping the tradition.
"Humanity will continue," he contends, "but in a different way.
Material structures will change. From this we will have the
opportunity to be more human."
We are living in the most important era of the Mayan calendars and
prophecies. All the prophecies of the world, all the traditions,
are converging now. There is no time for games. The spiritual
ideal of this era is action. Many powerful souls have reincarnated
in this era, with a lot of power. This is true on both sides, the
light and the dark. High magic is at work on both sides.
Things will change, but it is up to the people how difficult or
easy it is for the changes to come about. The economy now is a
fiction. The first five-year stretch of transition from August
1987 to August 1992 was the beginning of the destruction of the
material world. We have progressed ten years deeper into the
transition phase by now, and many of the so-called sources of
financial stability are in fact hollow.
The banks are weak. This is a delicate moment for them. They could
crash globally if we don't pay attention. If the banks crash ...
then we will be forced to rely on the land and our skills. The
monetary systems will be in chaos, and we must then rely on our
direct relationship with the Earth for our food and shelter. The
North and South Poles are both breaking up. The level of the water
in the oceans is going to rise. But at the same time land in the
ocean, especially near Cuba, is also going to rise.
A Call for Fusion
As he met with audiences in Santa Fe, Mr. Barrios told a story
about the most recent Mayan New Year ceremonies in Guatemala. He
said that one respected Mam elder, who lives all year in a
solitary mountain cave, journeyed to Chichicastenango to speak
with the people at the ceremony. The elder delivered a simple,
direct message. He called for human beings to come together in
support of life and light. Right now each person and group is
going his or her own way. The elder of the mountains said there is
hope if the people of the light can come together and unite in
some way.
Reflecting on this, Mr. Barrios explained: "We live in a world of
polarity: day and night, man and woman, positive and negative.
Light and darkness need each other. They are a balance. Just now
the dark side is very strong, and very clear about what they want.
They have their vision and their priorities clearly held, and also
their hierarchy. They are working in many ways so that we will be
unable to connect with the spiral Fifth World in 2012."
"On the light side everyone thinks they are the most important,
that their own understandings, or their group's understandings,
are the key. There's a diversity of cultures and opinions, so
there is competition, diffusion, and no single focus."
As Mr. Barrios sees it, the dark side works to block fusion
through denial and materialism. It also works to destroy those who
are working with the light to get the Earth to a higher level.
They like the energy of the old, declining Fourth World, the
materialism. They do not want it to change.
They do not want fusion. They want to stay at this level, and are
afraid of the next level.
The dark power of the declining Fourth World cannot be destroyed
or overpowered. It's too strong and clear for that, and that is
the wrong strategy. The dark can only be transformed when
confronted with simplicity and open-heartedness. This is what
leads to fusion, a key concept for the World of the Fifth Sun.
Mr. Barrios said the emerging era of the Fifth Sun will call
attention to a much-overlooked element. Whereas the four
traditional elements of earth, air, fire and water have dominated
various epochs in the past, there will be a fifth element to
reckon with in the time of the Fifth Sun: ether. The dictionary
defines ether as the rarefied element of the Heavens. Ether is a
medium. It permeates all space and transmits waves of energy in a
wide range of frequencies, from cell phones to human auras. What
is "ethereal" is related to the regions beyond earth: the heavens.
Ether the element of the Fifth Sun is celestial and lacking in
material substance, but is no less real than wood, stone or flesh.
"Within the context of ether there can be a fusion of the
polarities," Mr. Barrios said. "No more darkness or light in the
people, but an uplifted fusion. But right now the realm of
darkness is not interested in this. They are organized to block
it. They seek to unbalance the Earth and its environment so we
will be unready for the alignment in 2012. We need to work
together for peace, and balance with the other side. We need to
take care of the Earth that feeds and shelters us. We need to put
our entire mind and heart into pursuing unity and fusion now, to
confront the other side and preserve life."
To be Ready for this Moment in History Mr. Barrios told his
audiences in Santa Fe that we are at a critical moment of world
history. "We are disturbed," he said. "We can't play anymore. Our
planet can be renewed or ravaged. Now is the time to awaken and
take action."
"Everyone is needed. You are not here for no reason. Everyone who
is here now has an important purpose. This is a hard, but a
special time. We have the opportunity for growth, but we must be
ready for this moment in history."
Mr. Barrios offered a number of suggestions to help people walk in
balance through the years ahead. "The prophesied changes are going
to happen," he said "but our attitude and actions determine how
harsh or mild they are."
We need to act, to make changes, and to elect people to represent
us who understand and who will take political action to respect
the earth.
Meditation and spiritual practice are good, but also action. It's
very important to be clear about who you are, and also about your
relation to the Earth.
Develop yourself according to your own tradition and the call of
your heart. But remember to respect differences, and strive for
unity. Eat wisely. A lot of food is corrupt in either subtle or
gross ways. Pay attention to what you are taking into your body.
Learn to preserve food, and to conserve energy. Learn some good
breathing techniques, so you have mastery of your breath.
Be clear. Follow a tradition with great roots. It is not important
what tradition, your heart will tell you, but it must have great
roots. We live in a world of energy. An important task at this
time is to learn to sense or see the energy of everyone and
everything: people, plants, animals. This becomes increasingly
important as we draw close to the World of the Fifth Sun, for it
is associated with the element ether - the realm where energy
lives and weaves.
Go to the sacred places of the earth to pray for peace, and have
respect for the Earth which gives us our food, clothing, and
shelter. We need to reactivate the energy of these sacred places.
That is our work.
According to Mr. Barrios' reading of the Mayan calendar, if war
happens in November 2002 or after, then it's bad, but not
catastrophic. But if it happens between April and November 2003,
it will be catastrophic. Really bad. It could eventually result in
the death of two-thirds of humanity. "So stay active," he said.
"If we are active, we can transform the planet. The elders watch
to see what happens."
Many Mayan elders and knowledge keepers may be eliminated in the
next few years. For the first half of the current Katun (20-year
period) the dark side has a lot of power. But that will pass 3 to
4 years from now. The tide can turn. Amazing things are going to
happen.
One simple but effective prayer technique is to light a white or
baby-blue colored candle. Think a moment in peace. Speak your
intention to the flame and send the light of it on to the leaders
who have the power to make war or peace.
We Have Work to Do
According to Mr. Barrios this is a crucially important moment for
humanity, and for earth. Each person is important. If you have
incarnated into this era, you have spiritual work to do balancing
the planet. He said the elders have opened the doors so that other
races can come to the Mayan world to receive the tradition. The
Maya have long appreciated and respected that there are other
colors, other races, and other spiritual systems. "They know," he
said, "that the destiny of the Mayan world is related to the
destiny of the whole world."
"The greatest wisdom is in simplicity," Mr. Barrios advised before
leaving Santa Fe. "Love, respect, tolerance, sharing, gratitude,
forgiveness. It's not complex or elaborate. The real knowledge is
free. It's encoded in your DNA. All you need is within you. Great
teachers have said that from the beginning. Find your heart, and
you will find your way."
