Guest guest Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Mayan Calendar Corroborates Hindu Prophecy In the Brahma-Vaivarta Purana, Lord Krishna tells Ganga Devi that there will be a Golden Age within the Kali-yuga that will start 5,000 years after the beginning of the Kali Yuga. The Golden Age will last for 10,000 years according to Lord Krishna. The Kali Yuga calendar began at midnight on 18 February 3102 B.C. according to many sources. The ancient Hindu's mainly used lunar calendars but also used solar calendars. If an average lunar year equals 354.36 days, then this would be about 5270 lunar years from the time when the Kali Yuga started until 21 Dec 2012, the year that the Mayans predict rebirth of our planet; and it is also about 5113 solar years of 365.24 days per year. Krishna said that the Golden Age would start 5,000 years into the Kali Yuga, but did he mean exactly or approximately 5,000 years? Did he mean lunar or solar years? I think he meant approximately 5,000 years. So, it doesn't matter if they were lunar or solar years. (You can convert a Gregorian date to Kali day number and back.) 21 Dec 2012, the winter solstice day, is supposed to be the end of the Mayan calendar, and will begin there-birth of the world, a totally different world, and this date is day number 1,867,817 into the Kali Yuga. By either solar or lunar years, we are over 5,000 years into the Kali Yuga and it is time for Lord Krishna's prophecy to happen according to the ancient Hindu scriptures. Lord Krishna's Golden Age could easily begin in 2012! The Mayan calendar began with the Fifth Great Cycle in 3114 B.C. and will end on 21 December 2012 A.D. The Hindu Kali Yuga calendar began on 18 February 3102 B.C. Note that there are only 12 years difference between the Hindu's beginning of the Kali Yuga and the Mayan's beginning of the Fifth Great Cycle. The Mayan's Fifth Great cycle calendar will last for 5126 years, then a new age of change will begin in 2012. It's amazing that both calendar's began at about the same time over 5000 years ago and both calendar's predict a totally new world and/or golden age after about 5000 years into their calendars! I think we are onto something with these Mayan and Hindu 2012 predictions. Now we have another ancient source, Hindu Scripture's called the Brahma-Vaivarta Purana, predicting a new world about the same time that the Mayans predicted it to come! Historically, this an amazing fact since these two ancient cultures didn't have any contact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
