2012 - Mayan Calendar - What is it about?

We in the Western world have been influenced by the historical events of what came out of Greece and Rome, however, when London had only a few thousand people in 800 AD, Tikal which is now in Guatemala was an advanced civilisation of 80,000 Mayan people, with a fully written language and living in elegant, architecturally built buildings with a pyramid as their center piece.

Intrinsically integrated into their cosmology was an advanced calendar that has its culmination point in 2012.

So why did the Maya have as a focal point of their civilisation a calendar that they "built on" that has a prophetic date, when their civilisation basically collapses around a 1000 years ago, yet only in the last 30 years researchers uncovers a profound understanding that humanity is at a point of cosmic timing that states that we are at the culmination of our evolutionary cycle?

And when we look around our planet today, with the synchronistic convergence of ecological, economic, societal and warlike disorder, what are we to make of this timing?

Carl Calleman, is a serious scholar and researcher from Sweden, whose insights show that there is intelligence embedded in not only the Mayan pyramids as 'time keepers' but also in the universe itself, and that we as a humanity are on the threshold of a great awakening that if we are astute and open to possibility will open the door to opportunity, growth and "unity consciousness" never before envisaged by humanity up until this very moment!

This is an exceptionally positive and optimistic analysis and interview by a world leading scholar!

Jul 1, 2010

Listen to a clear and lucid understanding of what the many grass roots and volunteer groups are doing to make New Zealand sustainable and the excellent work they do, what charitable trusts support them, and how local government needs more consciousness to see that an ecological approach to environment, health and community are critical to where we are going as a nation.

That at a national level, the Government still sees the environment as 'something' to exploit, when for example, in England, Marks and Spencer (the huge super store) has gone sustainable and is producing larger profits, because of going more into organics and a healthier lifestyle.

On top of this the NZ Resource Management Act is perceived as woolly, in that there are no numbers in it, no targets, or standards, and that we are 20 years behind Europe in writing and complying with policy, when in fact we could be the planetary leader!

Finally, an exceptionally clear summary about the Supercity, Governance and Loss of Democracy. Plus, what is the Search and Surveillance Bill that is being foisted upon us, a peaceful nation of only 4 million kiwis? Why such draconian measures and who in their right mind would conjure up such a hideous concept?
