It is very unusual of me reading some astrology blogs but a few days back in the Indiaprwire update email there was an entry by an astrology blogger (pretty unusual as well) that read “Will the world end in 2012 ?”. The blog author talks about the end of the world on December 21st 2012 as the Mayan Calendar ends on the same day. I have heard about this Mayan Calendar stuff before and also recollected reading about the same end-of-the-world theory in some other website. So just visited the astro blog and got the same set of info albeit very technical one probably taken from some other reference.
[...]The Mayan believed that there were 9 Patterns of Creation (each with a Day and Night). The road to Creation is like a pyramid with 9 levels. (in fact most of the pyramids around the world including Egypt are of 9 levels!) . Each of these 9 levels represent an immensely long period of time, with each level above of shorter duration. You can imagine this as a set of vessels - the biggest vessel is at the bottom (level 1) and a vessel 20 times smaller than that is kept inside the first vessel (level 2) and so on until we reach the 9th level.
What this means is that the rate of Creation has been accelerating! What took a million years to create at one level would take only 50,000 years at the next level and 2500 years in the next… Have you ever wondered why the world around us and our life seems to be moving faster and faster?! [...]
It is a multi-part series and this is just the first part so there might be some interesting info in further posts. Generally these end of the world theories come periodically when one passes another one pops up. But still is a great chewing material for conspiracy theorists and enthusiasts

Enjoyed reading your blog and felt that you might like to visit or perhaps even link to my 2012 site, I try to introduce the topic here at http://2012rising.com/2012 and also build on it as we get closer to the date 21-12-2012. Any questions that arise I will be happy to try and answer!

Hi there, On Sunday I found information on astrology reading. Your post on e world really end in 2012 ? at Jagannath really added to that, and I found myself nodding throughout your post!
While going through so many sites avaliable on net which says they are educating people on END OF WORLD concept but in few sites 12/12/12 is mentioned as last day of the world whereas some sites says 21/12/12 11:11 pm is the last day??
which is quiet confusing..
actually…i can accept this only as an mathematical calculation…no man has ever been blessed to learn the last day of creation or destruction…its not just those phases u mention is indulged in creation..every minute and second there are numerous creatures created….and it isnt man who controls birth and death ACTUALLY!!!my LORD’s word says no one can guess HIS coming and HIS date or time of return..and none else other than HIM who created this world can destroy it completely sothis entire stuff is imaginary or some mere mathematical revelation of some “really crazy about the end” genius….if anybody needs any refernce of what i say…pls think THE BIBLE as a book and read the revelation part of it…..
