According to the research done on the Mayan calendar, it is supposed to end as of 2012. Many people believe this will be the end of the world as we know it.
Many cultures have an end of the world myth. It varies from culture to culture and religion to religion. Some say that the original calculations are off, and that the Mayan calendar actually ends this year. Ack!
Even Buddhism talks about and ending cycle, where humanity achieves a certain level, then there is a catastrophe that sets us back a ways and we have to rebuild. Currntly, we are supposed to be entering the age of Aquarius where peace and harmony is supposed to begin and wars are supposed to end. It would probably take quite a bit of work!
What are your thoughts and beliefs? Since are current Gregorian calendar doesn’t have an actual end date, does this apply? Do you think end of the world myths are just like the hype behind the new millenium are nothing to worry about?
Hello,
I have been a true dreamer for as long as I can remember, dreaming future events, both personal and world events that have come true. Many of my dreams of what I would have called the far-future some 30-40 years ago have already come true. I have dreamed of earth changes to come and a huge wave - these have not yet occurred - but the timing of them was further in the future than now. From what I have dreamed, the biggest changes are not this year - although this will be a very difficult year. I don’t believe these changes cause the end of the world - but that they will change the world as we know it.
People thought it would happen in 1984, 1999, and now it’s 2012. Just live life and be happy then if it happens you’ll know that you made a difference with your family, friends, and others.
