Mayan calendar and Gregorian Leap Year.

Mayan calendar and Gregorian Leap Year.

There was a forwarded post circulating on FB about how the Mayan Calendar and the end of the world had in fact already happened. You may of already seen it; it said (not sure of the date of the original posting):

There have been about 514 Leap Years since Caesar created it in 45BC. Without the extra day every 4 years, today would be July 28, 2013. Also, the Mayan calendar did not account for leap year…. so technically the world should have ended 7 months ago.

This is in fact incorrect as stated here (this guy explains it better than I would of).

The Mayan solar calendar has no leap years, and is 365 days long. However, this is not the calendar that is being used to predict the end of the world; the Mayans used a long-count calendar for extremely long periods of time. The concept of leap-years is irrelevant to this calendar system, because it's not based on solar years, simply on math.

You know how we use a base-10 counting system? (10, 100, 1000, 10,000 etc.) The Mayans used a modified base-20 counting system for keeping track of days - the second cycle went up to 18 rather than 20. So they tracked days in cycles of 20, 360, 7200, 144000, 2880000, etc.

We're coming to the end of one of the 144,000 day cycles. Today (March 6, 2012) can be expressed at 12.19.19.3.10 on the Mayan long-count calendar. This calendar will reach 12.19.19.17.19, on December 20, and then turn to 13.0.0.0.0 on December 21. This happens roughly every 400 years. No big deal.

Very interesting when you start looking at it.

Here's another guy explaining it better than I could, possibly the better explanation than the one above:

http://jameswatt.me/2012/03/07/mayan-calendar-and-the-gregorian-leap-year/

Here's a nice quote from the above source.

The current era (known to the Mayans as a baktun) does end on December 21, 2012. However, the world will not end; the calendar simply rolls over to the next baktun. It’s very similar to the Gregorian date of January 1, 2000.

And just like we celebrated the beginning of the new millennium, the Mayans would have celebrated the beginning of a new baktun. This was not something to fear.

This kinda makes sense to me...

What do you think peeps??

Not much time for me to find some GREAT mushrooms or pure LSD.

I'm going out in the desert here in NM and trip my balls off until sun rise. At least then I will be set for what ever will happen.

whatever happens, happens. im just going to roll with it the best i can. whatever it is.

it may not be dec 21st 2012, but something major is inevitably going to happen in the near future. there are lots and lots of predictions of what may happen. and a lot of them make tons of sense. but to me there is no sense in trying to come up with an answer, or stressing over it.

all i can do is accept the high probability of something and be mentally prepared for when it does and go from there.

If the world is going to end , everybody is invited to come to my farm for the biggest 420 party ever but everything is going to be ok. If you look at history everything that is happening now has already happened in the past(war,natural disaster, corruption, etc).

You would think industrial societies would take note of the cyclical
nature of ancient calenders. It's just a notice of reset, not a profound
end of times.

The title of this thread threw me off. I thought it was about a seed drop.

Isn't it obvious? The Mayans predicted the miscalculation at the HAARP facility that will cause the conversion of earth into a seventh degree black hole that will suck in the universe through a wormhole in thirty microseconds and cause the next big bang. REBOOT!

Of course the quadlitarian overlords have been keeping that out of the mainstream media.

The Big Cheese is going to press the green RESTART button, and this digital simulation that we are currently existing in - is going to restart all over again.

In this new world, Cheech and Chong are going to be President and VP, and the main law will be that everyone has to wake and bake with a minimum of three dabs!

Consciousness is an :artist: - and along with evolution it keeps running these experiments, in a never-ending movement toward more and more organization and less and less entropy.

What makes this experiment interesting and possible (besides consciousnessa and evolution) is FREE WILL.

Free will is what makes this game of life what it IS - and why so many f*ckers like Zionists, Illuminati, World Bankers, etc. - think they are so f*cking smart, while in reality they are all travelling down a dead-end road.

The path toward enlightenment is love-based, not fear-based.

Becoming a genuinely LOVING human being is the purpose of every human being on this third rock from the sun.

So, there is only one question at the end of the day?

Are you travelling on a road with heart (love) and think of others and the whole of humanity or are you a fear-based egotistical-entity that only thinks of him or herself, and couldn't give a rat's-ass about what happens to anyone but yourself?

Remember that you are NOT taking your body with you anywhere, the only thing that you might take with you is your consciousness, and the quality of this consciousness is reflected in your intent.

The choices that you make on a daily basis are made based on the quality of this intent, so it is quite easy to see where we all stand, if we observe our choices and the intent (TRUE MOTIVATION) behind these choices.
