Sorry for the double posts. I guess I have more to say. Let's see, Jose Arguelles wrote The Mayan Factor and got together the Global Meditation Harmonic Convergence August 16-17, 1987. After he brought this to the attention of the world, indigenous Mayan like Hunbatz Men and others began to come forward and speak about Mayan traditions. There is a Hopi tradition connected to all of this, if anyone is interested in the indigenous Indians connections, there is more than one side to this ending of the Mayan Long count, December 21, 2012. The Long Count is 5126 years long. The 26000 years everyone keeps misquoting is the procession of the equinox, but mathematically still fits with the Long Count, even through this present long count didn't go back that far. The Mayan and Hopi both talk about the 4 worlds or 5 suns, and this will be the entering of the 5th world and 6th sun. If nothing else, the Mayan were definitely into NUMBERS and cycles, especially like in their Venus calendar. The Mayans had about a dozen calendars, probably inherited from the Olmecs.
