2012, end of the world?2012 is "supposedly" the last date given by the Mayans in their calendar. But the astronomer Philip Plait has stated very clearly that the Mayan calendar does not end in 2012 at all, that it is like the odometer on your car, as each section of the odometer reaches 9 and then clicks over to 0, the next number to it starts a new cycle, so that when all the numbers again reach 0 all the way across the odometer - the last number will change from 1 to 2 and the new cycle starts all over again. So 2012 is the end of one cycle of time and the beginning of another cycle of time. Nostrodamus predicted that 3827AD would be the end of the world, not 2012.That is 1815 years past 2012! And consider this; the end of the Muslim Calendar is at 2076AD and the end of the Jewish Calendar is at 2240 AD. Real science is predicting the next/current sunspot cycle to be the worst in 50 years, peaking in 2012. This could disable communications satellites at worst. Most 2012 Mayan predictions seem to be based upon Western interpretations of the calendar and Mayan drawings as opposed to what the Mayans themselves have ever publicly taught throughout history. Magnetic pole reversal? Yes, they do happen, but very slowly over tens of thousands of years. To believe that it will happen quickly in 2012 is contrary to all scientific evidence that we have of previous reversals. Golden Age The Hopi prophecy is an oral tradition of stories that Hopis say predicted the coming of the white man, the world wars and nuclear weapons. And it predicts that time will end when humanity emerges into the "fifth world." The Mayan calendar predicts a similar end in 2012; some Hopis have said their prophecy roughly coincides with that time. The tradition says the years after 2012 could be a golden age with humans at peace. It also says the world will go through a time of trial, suffering and purification before a time of "one-heartedness" (Hopi Civilization). Catastrophies? Global climate change is accelerating causing extremes of heat and cold, floods and drought. Best not to live where you can be affected by floods. Best to break any habits of addictions to processed food and learn to live more simply. Fast ocassionally in case you are forced to fast in the future by food shortages. That way it won't be such a shock to your system. I've done many fasts and I felt so good afterwards because they help to clean out all inner biological and chemical trash. Epidemics of Microbial Diseases. Already we are faced with superbug bacteria that are resistant to all antibiotics. And there are viruses that can cause epidemics such as Ebola and the avian virus. In times of catastrophe and social upheaval you are much less likely to have access to good medical care. It is best to be independent of the conventional medical system. Well, if you are very alternative you want that anyway. A Beck Blood Electrifier is the very least of medical survival devices you should own. With it you can fight any bacteria or virus. And they can be used to kill any local infection from a cut, etc. It is good also to own a solar powered battery charger and rechargeable 9 volt batteries in case the electrical grid is down for more than 2 months. references: http://www.greatdreams.com/2012.htm |
