Russian professor looks for clues to Earth’s future buried in Mayan text

April 23, 2012 – CENTRAL AMERICA – Mayan life is described in a sacred book called “Popol Vuh.” Kiril Novoselsky, a Russian professor, said it could be compared to the Bible, “but all information is in allegoric form. There are some interpretations, but I think they are all far from the truth,” he said. All commentaries were either destroyed or written with the hieroglyphic script, which is difficult to read. “Most secrets are still hidden. One of the most popular interpretations is the prophecy about the end of the days in 2012,” Novoselsky said. He mentioned the well-known esoteric researcher Drunvalo Melchisedek, who had discussed this question with Guatemalan priests and found out that the predicted transformation would be a process that would happen gradually—not in two days, but during 200 years. “In their opinion, the year 2012 is a milestone of the old epoch and the beginning of something new, maybe the beginning of a new culture. And they emphasized that this would happen slowly and gradually without cataclysms and earthquakes,” Novoselsky said. “People living in the center of the Mayan civilization haven’t any panic about this prophecy.” He added, “In my opinion, all these prophecies are a chance to think about our behavior, the meaning of life, about how to improve yourself and other people’s life, and how to live in harmony.” –Epoch Times
