When a Mayan world ends, it moves into a new world time frame. It doesn't mean the earth is going to cease being or that people won't make it through the transition. I subscribe to the view of
Gregg Braden.
In his version, the Hindus, the Chinese, the Egyptians and the Hopi also talked quite a bit about this change at this time. My understanding is that we are crossing a photon meridian in the Milky Way, after which we will be heading back to the source of its energy. The Hopis continue that we are living a dream within a dream, and we will awaken in a new dream.... Doesn't this sound like the basis of A Course in Miracles or Subjective Reality?
