What the Mayan Elders are Saying About 2012 by Carlos Barrios Carlos
Barrios, Mayan elder and Ajq'ij (is a ceremonial priest and s-iritual guide) 
of
the Eagle Clan. Carlos initiated an investigation into the different Mayan
calendars circulating. Carlos along with his brother Gerardo studied with 
many
teachers and interviewed nearly 600 traditional Mayan elders to widen their
scope of knowledge.

Carlos found out quickly there were several conflicting interpretations of
Mayan hieroglyphs, petroglyphs, Sacred Books of  'Chilam Balam' and various
ancient text. Carlos found some strong words for those who may have
contributed to the confusion: Carlos Barrios: "Anthropologists visit the 
temple
sites and read the 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." "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, w-r, and ongoing
Earth Changes."
He continues: "Humanity will continue, 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 sp-ritual ideal of this era 
is action."
Carlos tells us: "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 such as the Tzolk'in or Cholq'ij, some of them 
charting
time accurately over a span of more than ten million years."All was 
predicted
by the mathematical cycles of the Mayan calendars. -- It will change --
everything will change. Mayan Day-keepers 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
c-annel for cosmic energy to flow through the Earth, cleansing it and all 
that
dwells upon it, raising all to a higher level of vibration. Carlos reminds 
us:
"This process has already begun. 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, we will rise to a new, higher level.
But to get there we must transform enormously powerful forces that seek to
block the way."
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.
Carlos tells us: "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. Now, people are paying 
attention."
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. Carlos tells 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. 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." Carlos believes the dark side works to block unity 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 unity. 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 unity, a key concept for the
World of the Fifth Sun.
Carlos 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 --- 
that element is 'ETHER'.
The dictionary defines Ether as a "hypothetical substance supposed to
occupy all space, postulated to account for the propagation of
electromagnetic radiation through space." Perhaps it could be defined
as the "space between space". I would suggest it could be manifest as
the alignment of charged particles from our solar system (Sun), and
our galaxy (Milky Way) surge. The Ether element represents spi-itual
energy.
"The element of the Fifth Sun is celestial. Within the context of Ether
there can be a joining of the polarities. No more darkness or light in
the people, but an uplifted unity. 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 unity now, to
confront the other side and preserve life." "We are disturbed -- 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."
Carlos says: "The prophesied changes are going to happen, 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 p-litical action to respect the Earth."
"Meditation and spirit-al 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 sa-red places of the Earth
to p-ay for peace, and have respect for the Earth which gives us our food,
clothing, and shelter. We need to reactivate the energy of these sac-ed
places. That is our work."
"One simple but effective p-ayer technique is to light white or baby-blue
colored candles. Think of 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 wa- or peace."
Carlos reminds us this is a crucially important moment for humanity and
for Earth. Each person is important.

He said the elders have opened the doors so that other rac-s can come to
the Mayan world to receive the tradition. "The Maya have long appreciated
and respected that there are other colors, other r-ces, and other sp-ritual
systems. They know that the destiny of the Mayan world is related to the
destiny of the whole world."
"The greatest wisdom is in simplicity. 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."
