Chapter 3 Mysterious Maya

There are even more puzzling things about the Mayans. The dwellings built by the Mayans had a well-developed road system, but none of the tools they made used wheels.In this way, there is no need for them to use livestock such as cattle and horses as force tools.The amazing thing is that they can easily use wheels as a way to reduce friction in small toys for children.The only explanation that makes sense is that the Mayans were unwilling to enslave cows and horses. In the buildings of the Mayans, they could freely carve the figures on the back of the moon on the doors and windows.But how can people on earth see the terrain on the back of the moon?The Mayans had their own unknown cultivation system. They believed that their wisdom was endowed by the consciousness of the universe. When necessary, if God wanted to take it back, they would dedicate it all without reservation.

In the 2012 end of the world predicted by the Mayans, the most critical question is whether the Mayans made similar doomsday predictions. Although some scholars have conducted in-depth research, they have concluded that the Mayans did not leave a clear record of what happened in 2012.But on the last page of a hand scroll handed down from generation to generation among the Mayan tribe, there is a description of the scene about the end of the world.This scroll is the famous "Dresden Manuscript", which predicts that the end of the world will be heralded by a protracted flood. But this kind of doomsday description is too common to be used as conclusive evidence, let alone the earth destruction method originally created by the Mayans.Therefore, it seems a bit too arbitrary to simply regard this as a doomsday prophecy.

Some scholars believe that the Mayans were not good at prophecy, and their views on time and history in their calendars are almost all judgments based on what happened in the past, rather than the unknowable future.In the Mayan long calendar, most of them talk about the relationship between Mayan rulers and ancestors.After all, the longer the ruler tells his family tree, the more he can win the support of the people and strengthen the legitimacy and legitimacy of his rule. In this way, the Mayan long calendar, which the world is proud of, does not exist to predict the future, but to verify the past!

Although the ancient Mayan calendar is not the slightest difference from the current calendar, the prophecy still seems to be untenable. The winter solstice in 2012 happens to be a cut-off point, which is like a cycle from winter to spring. After this day, human beings will enter a new stage of civilization.If it goes well, the reborn human beings will surpass the existing wisdom and move towards a peaceful and harmonious world without disputes. Perhaps, welcoming this day with a heart of expectation and a calm mind is more realistic and instructive to the general public. The Maya's classical epic "Popol U" brings together various creation myths circulated among the Maya people throughout the colonial period. It is mentioned in the book that the current human beings actually live in the fourth world.The gods failed in the first three creations, and did not succeed in creating such a diverse world until the fourth.But the fourth world will eventually come to an end in disaster.

Fortunately, after the end of the fourth world, the fifth, sixth... subsequent worlds will continue to be created. But the end of the fourth world means the end of human civilization. The discussion in the book "Popol U" coincides with the concept of the five solar periods in the Mayan calendar.Even if scholars and scientists categorically deny that 2012 will be the end of the world, they emphatically emphasize that human beings will usher in a new life.But no one dared to say whether this rebirth will be a phoenix on fire, or survival of the fittest. Proof of this is a date found at the Mayan site of Palenque, which indicates that the last point of record was October 13, 4772.That said, the Mayans themselves didn't think the age of humanity would end in 2012. December 21, 2012 is only the 13th reincarnation with a cycle of 400 years, not the end forever.

Since then, all the focus has been on the replacement of old and new.In ancient Mayan temples and inscriptions, there was a set of repeated numerical codes - 1 366 560.If calculated in days, it is exactly 3740 years when converted into years.Counting from the birth of the Mayans in 3113 BC to their sudden disappearance in 750 AD, it was exactly 3740 years.Does this mean that the civilization on the earth will be destroyed or disappear every 3740 years? By analogy, modern humans are already the fifth generation of descendants in this reincarnation, and the day of the extinction of human civilization is not far away.Regardless of whether this number is 2012, it seems that the earth is destined to usher in a catastrophe of civilization, and the only uncertainty is only a matter of time.

What's even weirder is that the sun's magnetic poles are reversed every 3,740 years. Due to the huge magnetic field, the earth's magnetic poles are also likely to be reversed.The transformation of the north and south magnetic poles will completely turn the earth into hell.According to archeology, the mass death of mammoths in Siberia and Alaska was caused by climate change.In ancient times, these two places had a tropical climate, and the reversal of the magnetic poles caused the earth's cold and hot climate to reverse, which caused such a terrible disaster. According to the most complete record in the "Keoditlan Chronicle", the fifth solar period began in 3113 BC, and the major cycle in the Mayan calendar is 5125 years, after which the fifth solar period will usher in end.This end day is December 21, 2012, which people are always afraid to mention.

The Mayans had a completely different way of life from us, and they lived for the future every day.The Mayans firmly believed in the prophecy recorded in the "Leopard's Prophecy Book". When the established future came, the Mayans would accept their fate very calmly.The most shocking thing is that 1519 was the year when the invaders who claimed to be civilized discovered the Mayan settlements, and this year was also the year when the Mayan sun ended.Until 1696, when the priest sent by the conqueror arrived, the leader of the Mayan tribe actually said: "According to the prophecy, the day of our turning away from God has not yet come, please come back in four months! At that time, we will fulfill the prophecy."

Four months later, when the invaders reappeared, the Mayans gave up their territory without any resistance, and left this hot land in accordance with the prophecy. This attitude and practice of obedience to prophecy is really surprising!Therefore, no matter what happens in 2012, the Mayans will choose to accept their fate with peace of mind.But what choice will millions of other peoples make?
