Fascinating book
Cosmogenesis
2012
is a compelling book about the
meaning
of the
Maya
n and Mesoamerican cal
endric images
. It reveals evidence as to why the Mayan
calendar ends
on December 21, 2012 along with explanations as to what this could entail for humanity. I recommend it for anyone interested in the end
date
of 2012.
Maya Cosmogenesis 2012
This work of Jenkins was all and more than I thought it would be. I share his path to where we are going in
2012
. I would purchase any work of Jenkins as I know I would not be disappointed.

A very thorough book
This book is very thorough. To me it was a little too archaeological but it was good. And it has an excellent forword by Terence McKenna.

2012 Research starts here
John Major Jenkins has looked into the question of why the
Maya
ended their
13-baktun cycle in the Gregorian year
2012
, and has researched the matter in incredible detail, and comes to conclusions that result from detailed study of many archaeological and specialist works. His study shows that the Maya deliberately targetted this point in time as the end of the cycle, and the evidence is found in king-accession rites, mythology, architecture, and the ball-game.
As you will know if you've read other reviews, the reason is the alignment of the winter solstice sun with the galactic equator - an event that happens only once in a cycle of precession - around 26,000 years. This IS NOT the "alignment of the solar system with galactic centre" or any of the other misrepresentatations of his work that have appeared.
This work stands whether or not anything noticeable happens in the years around 2012 - the fact is, that the Maya predicted that something would happen around 2012. This has become evident since the publication of this book, since the Tortuguero prophecy entered the public domain. In April 2005, the existence of Tortuguro monument 6 was revealed, (though known to a few specialists before that). The stela gives the end-
date
4 Ahau, 3 Kankin, 13 Baktun (a combination of 3
calendars that
gives the 21 December 2012 date) and gives an accompanying prophecy of the return of the Nine Gods.

The 'Zero Time' Is Upon Us
Overall this book is pretty solid I think as far as the research.
The main point is that we are very close to the
end
of what people call "The Platonic Year". This is a 25,800 year period of time during which our solar system travels through the 12 signs of the zodiac.
On 12/21/12 a strange astronomical alignment will occur where our solar system will get lined up with the super massive black hole in the center of the Milky Way galaxy. The "black sun". I think I read somewhere else that an energy beam is emanating from the black sun and this beam will strike the earth on that
date
.
The author doesn't really say exactly what's supposed to happen on that date. Perhaps the change that occurs will be within all of us I don't know.
Another re-occuring point is the
Mayan shamans
' use of mind altering substances such as certain mushrooms. To avoid the upset stomach that these concoctions could cause they would sometimes inject the mixture directly into their intestines.
In appendix 6 he critiques some other books on this subject and compares them to his own research. He disagrees with others that the ancient Egyptians were more advanced that the Mayans. My own take is both cultures have a common source (Atlantis). The pyramid of Kukulcan compares very well to the other pyramids around the world. However the pyramids at Giza, especially when they were in their original condition, stand alone.
Nobody really knows how these pyramids were built by the way, much as traditional Egyptologists like to make us think they know.
He is correct that people in our modern world today may in some cases tend to underestimate the knowledge that these ancient cultures possessed.
Many people today have a feeling that something strange is going to happen soon. I do anyway. Perhaps a lot of people like to read those 'left behind' books because that's a Christian response to this feeling.
There are some truly tragic desecrations and destructions of culture and knowledge that stand out in human history. Here's my short list:
1) the Muslims destroying the surfaces of the pyramids at Giza in Egypt so they could use the limestone for their palaces for Mohammed
2) the burning of the library at Alexandria by the Christians
3) the Spanish burning all of the Mayan's ancient codex booklets and melting down all of the Aztec's priceless gold artifacts
So we see that no single religion or country had any monopoly on destroying knowledge and history.

While researching the
2012
end
-
date
of the
Maya
Calendar
, John Major Jenkins decoded the Maya's galactic cosmology. The Maya discovered that the periodic alignment of the Sun with the center of the Milky Way galaxy is the formative influence on human evolution. These alignments also define a series of World Ages. The fourth age ends on December 21, 2012, when an epoch chapter in human history will come to an end. Maya Cosmogenisis 2012 reveals the Maya's insight into the cyclic nature of time, and prepares us for oue own
cosmogenesis--the birth
of a new world.
