I am happy, because today we (me and my editor-in-chief) decided to make a movie of the information I presented during Wednesday’s presentation: Do Mayan Shamans believe the world will end in 2012?
Although I did not have the opportunity to interview Mayan Elders from Guatemala on 2012 and the end of the world, here is an excerpt from an online article about Carlos Barrios who is Day Keeper of the Eagle Clan of the Mam Maya in Guatemala. The article is by Mark Heley.
Evidently Carlos, who is Spanish rather than Maya, has, nonetheless, studied the Mam Maya Eagle Clan for 25 years. As their spokesman, he says that the Elders of the Maya Mam Eagle Clan do not believe the world will end in 2012 but that it will be transformed from the fourth to the fifth world of creation, and that a new element, ether, will be part of our understanding of life on earth.
According to Barrios, as we transition between the fourth and fifth worlds, the old economic order will break down and the world banking system will collapse. He also foretells the melting of the polar ice caps and a general rise in sea level, though this has been a mainstay of climate-change prediction for some time.

A 2012 end of the world prophecy in the Maya’s Chilam Balam, the prophecies of the Jaguar Priesthood:
“In the final days of misfortune, in the final days of tying up the bundle of the thirteen (baktuns) on 4 Ahau, then the end of the world shall come and the katun of our fathers will ascend on high.” — The Book of Chilam Balam of Tizimin (Makemson)
Wow! If that isn’t an end of the world prophecy, I don’t know what is!
This is also from the online article, The Short Count and the Books of Chilam Balam. The article is by Mark Heley. According to the article, the prophecy is for the calendar cycle beginning on December 21, 2012.

Although the 2012 prophecy on Tortuguero’s Monument 6 does not seem to foretell an end ofthe world, the Chilam Balam does. Here’s a quote from the Chilam Balam from the online article entitled, The Short Count and the Books of Chilam Balam:

Interestingly, I talked about a new world beginning in 2012 long before the present craze, in 1995. At the time, the date seemed so far in the future.
I had gone to a hypnotherapist. During past life regression, I had a vision in which I said that our present troubles would fall away and a new world would begin after 2011.
The full story is in my book, When We Were Gods.
I will be speaking about 2012 and the End of the World at Book ‘Em next Saturday, October 16th in Waynesboro, Virginia.

According to Synthia Andrews and Colin Andrews, co-authors of The Complete Idiot’s Guide to 2012, John Major Jenkins does not proclaim December 21, 2012 as THE DATE when the Galactic Center lines up with the winter solstice. On the contrary, Jenkins evidently says that from 1994 to 2030 we are in the “Galactic Zone” – the time when our planet is aligned with the Galactic Center.
Hi again,
Today, we are in Akumal, an area known as the most Americanized part of the Riviera Maya.
Strangely, as we entered the well-manicured yards, tiled sidewalks, and area of luxurious condos, my gut felt tight and I realized I felt afraid. Of what, I don’t know – that I’m not wealthy enough, cool enough, or that I couldn’t compete well enough . .. . something like that.
In the modest Mayan villages there was more of a feeling of people helping each other out.
I was unable to write yesterday because my mini laptop/netbook developed a connection problem at the more Americanized hotel where we are staying. Ironic, isn’t it?
Today, I’m in a noisy internet cafe with kids playing on a pinball machine and a slightly sticky mouse. That’s OK, at least I can communicate with you today.
Yesterday, we scourged the huge Coba ruin, to find something I could not find last year – the stela with the Long Count Calendar Date of 41.9 billion billion billion years into the future. I think we found it.
This is an important stela because it proves that the Mayan Long Count Calendar does not end on December 21, 2012, if the ancient Maya carved a date 41.9 billion billion billion years into the future. Furthermore, it proves that the ancient Maya did not believe the world would end in 2012.
Today, we were in Tulum, the gorgeous Caribbean seaside ruin, to find and videotape images of Itzamna. This time, I’m sure these are actual images of the son of the creator god, Hunab K’u. Many Tulum guides brought tourists to the place that Victor Olalde our Chichen Itza friend and guide, had told us would be there.
I am feeling pretty good. At last, I know for sure, that I have an image of Itzamna, the old wise prophet.
