Maya Calendar Truth Revealed
It is astonishing how readily so many people worldwide are embracing the date on a Calendar to tell them that the world is coming to an end. It is reminiscent of the run up to the Millennium 2000 and the Y2K frenzy.
What is it about human nature that feeds on apocalyptic prophecies that bear no comparison to a religious belief, one that details the events and the purposes in bringing them to fruition? What Higher Power is involved or even included in the current calculations for a hell on earth?
What does anyone really know about the Maya, their culture and history,
as the end of their Calendar approaches? Are they even a little curious?
Now we also hear about the prophetic end that includes the Hindu, the Chinese, the American Indian Hopi tribal elders and their own calculations.
They might also be interested in adding the Babylonian and Chaldean Cal-endars to the mix.
So why would all these Calendars and prophecies be signaling the same
End of Time? Why would prophecies, from long dead savants and modern spiritualists, be given us to underscore the “truth” of an approaching day?
Someone needs to call a time out. If there is to be such keen focus on a
Maya inspired epiphany, one should know more about this enigmatic and
vanished culture and civilization.
In recent history, a new breed of archaeologists, ethnographers, famed explorers, and researchers, have uncovered many answers to the once
unknown peoples of Mesoamerica. These answers are often in direct con-flict with old established theories and declarations by lettered professors
who have refused to acknowledge the breakthroughs made, or who have even sought to discourage scientific inquiry. Some are even now buying into the current creation of half-truths and publishing them.
Lia Machel, author of the new Guidebook titled TIME PORTAL: The Worldof the First Maya, has researched and compiled discoveries and findings
by the new generation of scientists and anthropologists, to bring truths to light that will astonish the reader and student.
The Maya were once a people of the Canaanite tribes, descended from peoples dispersed and scattered at the Tower of Babel, throughout the world, as commanded by the Lord High God. Peoples from Africa, China, Japan and ancient Syria, Carthage, were among the first to occupy what would become the Maya Lands, in regions covering Mexico, the Yucatan, Guatemala, and Honduras.
Then came the Cambodians, the east Indians, the Hebrews, peoples from Polynesian islands.
There are records of all these traders and settlers in what was a network of international trade, starting in 1000 B.C. Great ships brought them there.
The famous Calendar has been traced all the way back to the Chaldeans,
thence to Babylon. It was given to the Olmec and Maya peoples by the Han

Chinese! In Chapter Two of her book, As Above, So Below, the author cites
the change made to the Maya form of calculation (and using the zero) that
is based on a number 13 instead of 12 in other calendars. It begins on the Maya Day of Creation, August 14, 3114 B.C….before there were Maya.
The Han Chinese and Babylonian Calendars are greatly similar, with time- lines corresponding to 1400-1000 B.C.
It should surprise no one who accepts this fact that all of the alleged prophecies of the end time dates would be recorded by the calendars of
all those who became the Maya peoples, or who traded with them.
Another fact: The Maya Dresden Codices feature a calendar order based on a complex system of 20 intermeshing rounds. The most important of these are the Venus Tables*, not the Moon Tables that are being used to
signal the end of the world. The Calendar does not end, but computes to be the end of an era. The next cycle completes on Oct. 15, 4772…in the Moon
Calendar. * Prof. Gerardo Aldemay, UC Santa Barbara, recognized this error
of calculation based on the Moon Calendar. His report, Timeline error inMaya Calendar deduction, with Gregorian Calendar: Oct. 7, 2010. It is the Venus timeline that is most accurate for synchronization between the Maya and Western Calendar dating. That date is perhaps 50-100 years from now!
If the end of the world was coming, why did the Maya astronomers compute in great numbers of years, like the pictun: 160,000 years…all the way up to the alautun: 64,000,000 years?
Further, the Maya gave no details of what would happen at such a juncture of descent into chaos. They simply called our Fourth World Age
The Age of Strife, when all the elements of earth would be quite active.
For those who want to enter the time portal to the world the Maya peoples created, and how they lived, read the entire Guidebook, illustrated by the author, and featuring important photos and figures to show the historic connections to peoples of the world, who came to be the Maya.
