Throughout history, humanity has looked to chronological signposts to help us predict and make order of the universe.
Perhaps the greatest signpost of the past millennium is approaching quickly. This signpost,revealed by the ancient
Mayan long count calander is 2012. The 2012 Conference will show that these many ancient traditions are saying that the Great Shift of the ages is at hand. These people of the past predicted that the world that humanity is about to enter will be so different than ours that this coming shift promises to change everything including the way we think and live our lives. The scholars attending this conference will present the research revealing that a multiplicity of ancient cultures in different lands have all pointed to the time period around 2012 as the year that
things will change. Those cultures include the Mayan, the Incan Elders, the Hopi, the Aztecs, and 19th Century Europeans. There is a broader consensus that this particular year, above all others, will be the year of significant change.
The presenters at this conference come from a whole spectrum of perspectives. Together they suggest that 2012 heralds a new age of awakening and expanded consciousness. The Mayan Long Count Calendar ends its current cycle in December of 2012. Instead of wallowing in fear of some dark future the presenters will show that we, the denizens of planet Earth are soon to witness the birth of the grandest era ever experienced by man. In the end the choice will be ours.
How can the average person make sense of this Great Shift?
The presenters of the 2012 Conference are offering an entire day with a collection of scholars and thinkers who have extensively explored the issues, and they will share their knowledge and wisdom to inform and hopefully illuminate their audience. The Conference will include in its broad field of consideration spiritual,
health, economic, and historical analysis of 2012 and its significance to all of us
This above-all informative Conference will impart data that you want to know about the past and future that you won't find anywhere else.
