MAYAN STUDIES / NEW AGE "Reading this book is a powerful and electrifying experience. Each page offers penetrating insights that unravel the deepest mysteries of human history and the evolution of global consciousness." --Michael E. Salla, Ph.D., Center for Global Peace The prophetic Mayan calendar is not keyed to the movement of planetary bodies. Instead, it functions as a metaphysical map of the evolution of consciousness and records how spiritual time flows, providing a new science of time. The calendar is associated with nine creation cycles, each of which represents one of nine levels of consciousness or Underworlds on the Mayan cosmic pyramid. Using empirical research, Carl Johan Calleman shows how this pyramidal structure of the development of consciousness can explain matters as disparate as the common origin of world religions and the modern complaint that time seems to be moving faster. Readers will learn that time is, in fact, speeding up as we transition from the materialistic Planetary Underworld that governs us today to a new and higher frequency of consciousness--the Galactic Underworld--in preparation for the final Universal level of conscious enlightenment. The Mayan Calendar and the Transformation of Consciousness reveals the Mayan calendar as a spiritual device that enables a greater understanding of the nature of conscious evolution throughout human history--and how it provides the concrete steps we can take to align ourselves with this growth toward enlightenment. CARL JOHAN CALLEMAN holds a Ph.D. in physical biology and has served as an expert on cancer for the World Health Organization. He began his studies on the Mayan calendar in 1979 and now lectures throughout the world. He is also author of Solving the Greatest Mystery of Our Time: The Mayan Calendar. He lives in Sweden.
