New News.
On March 19, 2007, author Whitley Strieber (Wolfen, Communion, Majestik and The Key) announced his latest book, as well as plans for a movie based upon it.
The title “2012: the War for Souls” is due out in September.
Some tours are headed towards Fiji, to view a comet that will be seen only in that part of the world. Others are being booked to sacred sites around the globe.
Naturally, there will be tours to the Mayan sacred capitols, but we have heard of trips headed to New Zealand, to be among the Maori, special tours to Lhasa in Tibet, Macchu Picchu in Peru and the Great Pyramids in Cairo. We think this is completely in line, and in synch, with the idea of a spiritual connection to this event.
Now is the time to be thinking where you want to be in December of 2012, and who you want to be with. This is not like 1999. It will not be a huge global drinking party. This is about the transformation of the human race as a whole. Tap into your innermost feelings. Where on earth do you want to be when Heaven appears? What resonates with your Spirit? Wherever you decide, go in peace.
What The Maori Elders Say.
There are some old Maori legends that speak of the reunification of ‘Rangi’ (the Sky) and ‘Papa’ (the Earth).
This one basically flows from a Maori Creation Legend. In short, Rangi (the Sky) and Papa (the Earth) were partners and were closely clasped together. They had a number of children, who lived in between these two parents, squashed and without light. One day these children (who were all Gods by the way - God of the Wind, God of the Sea, God of War, etc.) decided to push their parents apart so they could have room to move. They all tried and failed, until one of the Gods, Tane, pushed them apart, separated them, and there was light.
The other, more secretive legend, that follows from this says that there will come a time when the children of Tane (that’s you and me) are so busy, so distracted with fighting, with greed, with lust, etc., so separated from our original parents that we will have lost our links with the natural order of things and that Rangi and Papa will take that opportunity - while no one is looking - to quickly come back together, destroying everything in the process. There has been much meditation done on this event and 2012 seems to be the year the old people come up with.
When asked, a few of the ‘kaumatua’ (tribal elders) had firm ideas of what they see happening in 2012. One said “Ka hinga te arai”… the rest nodded in agreement. Here’s what that means:
hinga = to fall
arai = curtain
These are the modern interpretations of those two words.
What he said is basically,“The curtain will fall”. One could easily deduce he meant a “Final curtain” end-of-the-world sorta thing.
Modern Maori is just like modern English… it changes over time, the meanings of words alter and get reinterpreted as time goes by. This kaumatua (elder) is an “old school” Maori… knowledgeable in the ancient ways, the old ways, the old original language… or “tuturu Maori” as it is called, which basically means “original Maori”. Anyway, in original Maori, those two words (hinga and arai) mean slightly different things.
hinga = to dissolve/to be removed/to fade
arai = veil/thin separation
“Arai” is the main word there to look at. When people die, Maori say they have gone “ki muri i te arai” …they have gone “behind the veil”… passed over so to speak. So in that sense, “arai” actually means like a “separator” between the physical world/plane and the spiritual world/plane.
So - “ka hinga te arai” in old Maori means the removal/dissolving of the planes separator… basically the MERGING of the physical and spiritual planes.
I have added a link to “The Final Illusion” from Terrance’s site. There you’ll find several theories and links to other information regarding this subject. Look for the link at the top of his page titled “December 21 of 2012 AD”. That will take you to a very lengthy article by John Major Jenkins regarding the Mayan calendar and the mathematics that determines the date.
