Sorry To Tell You This, But The Apocalypse Will Be Postponed…
Oh dear. We’re going to have to reschedule all those apocalypse parties we’ve been planning for December 2012! (No, this is not a Halloween prank folks, but, we do wish you a fantastic Halloween!)
End of the Earth Postponed
It’s a good news/bad news situation for believers in the 2012 Mayan apocalypse. The good news is that the Mayan “Long Count” calendar may not end on Dec. 21, 2012 (and, by extension, the world may not end along with it). The bad news for prophecy believers? If the calendar doesn’t end in December 2012, no one knows when it actually will – or if it has already.
A new critique, published as a chapter in the new textbook “Calendars and Years II: Astronomy and Time in the Ancient and Medieval World” (Oxbow Books, 2010), argues that the accepted conversions of dates from Mayan to the modern calendar may be off by as much as 50 or 100 years. That would throw the supposed and overhyped 2012 apocalypse off by decades and cast into doubt the dates of historical Mayan events.

“Physics shows that when we look at matter it is mostly empty space. We therefore observe this nothingness and it is our mind that gives it the appearance of solidity…Maybe it is not a nonduality of matter but a nonduality of consciousness we should explore.
The new hard question is not how brain gives rise to consciousness but how do our minds take on all the different forms that we experience as reality?
The nondual perspective to this question is that all is one, there is no difference between form and emptiness, mind and matter.
Could this nondual prospective heal the split between science and spirituality?”
