A VERY INTERESTING AND WELL DELIVERED TALK CONCERNING THE USE AND IMPORTANCE OF CALENDARS, AND THE REASONS FOR THEY'RE USE... AS THE CENTER OF A CIVILIZATION...


THIS IS BECAUSE OF HOW IT IS USED TO GOVERN OUR TIME DIVISION, OR THE COUNTING OF OUR LIFE EXPERIENCING...


IT IS A FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE OF EACH AND EVERY CULTURE THERE HAS BEEN, SO NONE OF US ARE EXEMPT IN REALITY, BECAUSE ALL BUT A FEW ARE BOUND TO THEIR SOCIETY BY THEIR INVOLVEMENT WITH EACH OTHER AND THE DEADLINES THAT THEN ENSUE FROM THE CALENDAR IN USE BY THAT SOCIETY...


THERE IS LITTLE TO SHOW THAT OUR PRESENT CALENDAR HAS ANY BASIS IN ANYTHING OTHER THAN SUPERSTITION AND THE CONTROL OF US ALL BY ELITIST SECRET ORDERS AND GROUPS AS THIS WAS THE METHOD USED TO CONSTRUCT THE PRESENT GREGORIAN CALENDAR, WE ALL NOW LIVE BY...


THERE HAS BEEN MUCH TALKED OF ABOUT THE "NEW AGEY" MOVEMENT AND THE APPARENT CONNECTION TO THE MAYAN CALENDRICAL SYSTEM, MOST OF THIS IS AS BASED IN FACT AS THE THE LIE WE HAVE BEEN SOLD BY OUR RESPECTIVE GOVERNMENTS...


THE MAYAN CALENDAR HAS NUMERICAL SIGNIFICANCE AND CAN BE SHOWN TO BE BASED IN ACTUAL REASONING AND PURPOSE OF EVOLVEMENT BOTH OF SOCIETY AND to BENEFICIALITY OF INDIVIDUALISM...


THIS SYSTEM OF COUNTING DAYS AND GIVING PRESENCE AND AWARENESS OF/IN AND TO THE MOMENT, INCLUDING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF PAST AND PRESENT, AND ABILITY TO PLAN THE FUTURE OUT, AS THIS IS WHAT ALL CALENDARS DO AND IS THEIR REASON FOR BEING...


IS ALSO RELATED TO OLDER SYSTEMS OF CALENDAR, AND THROUGH NUMERICAL SEQUENCING AS OPPOSED TO SUPERSTITION...


WHICH MUCH OF THE "NEW AGE" IS INVOLVED WITH... SO IN TRUTH IT BEARS LITTLE RELEVANCE OR RESEMBLANCE TO "NEW AGE" IN ACTUALITY, AND HAS RECEIVED A BAD PRESS IN THIS REGARD...


AS IT ALSO HAS BECAUSE OF THE BAD PRESS IT'S DECAY AND RECORDING OF, BY IT'S CONQUERERS GAVE IT...


I AM SURE THAT IF SOMEONE NOTED DOWN SOME OF THE FINER POINTS OF WHAT IS HAPPENING AROUND US TODAY WITH REGARD TO OUR TREATMENT OF EACH OTHER AND THE RITUALISTIC ATROCITIES CARRIED OUT BY THE ELITE SHAPERS OF OUR SOCIETY, I PROPOSE THAT WE WOULD ALSO READ FAR MORE, AND ALSO FAR LESS, INTO OUR OWN TIME AND EXISTENCE(SOCIETY) THAN WOULD BE ACTUALLY BE REFLECTIVE OF IT'S MANY POSITIVE ASPECTS...


AND I WOULD FURTHER SUGGEST THERE IS EVERY POSSIBILITY THAT WE WOULD MAYBE OVERLOOK IT'S WORTH'S AND EVEN VIEW OUR OWN SOCIETY WITH COMPLETE DISDAIN DESPITE QUITE LIKING THE LIFE WE PRESENTLY HAVE AS OUR ACTUAL EXPERIENCING, NOT WHAT WE THINK OF THE WIDER WORLD BUT WHAT WE FEEL ABOUT OUR WAKING EXPERIENCE...


FOR THIS REASON I FEEL WE SHOULD NOT BE BIASED IN OUR DISMISSAL OF A COMMON SENSE SET OF PRINCIPLES FOR GIVING STRUCTURE AND MEANING TO OUR DAILY LIVES, AS THIS IS WHAT ANY CALENDAR DOES...


THE MAYAN ONE HAS COMPLEXITY AND SIMPLICITY BUILT IN THAT IS STRUCTURED TOWARD THE INDIVIDUAL AND NOT MERELY THE STATE WHICH IMPOSES RULE...

I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS THOUGHT PROVOKING LECTURE...
