When it comes to the 2012 doomsday prophecy, I believe that many people have been convinced. Some reports have said that because of the fear that the end will come, some people build shelters underground, store a lot of grain, and even before December 21st, they spent all their savings, which is legendary, people are not dead money, right?
Skit "Not Bad Money"
You have to ask, why do modern people, who were not interested in fables, be so concerned about the Mayan prophecies of the last days? Some friends estimate that they are going to say ah, all blame the Mayans are too powerful, the first four prophecies they left behind are too powerful, what the Maya people's own extinction time and the emergence of cars, airplanes and other high-tech time, the birth and death of the war maniac Hitler, and the time of the occurrence of World War I and World War II have all been fulfilled one by one. The first four have all been fulfilled, and who says the fifth won't, right?
I believe that many people are indeed influenced by the first four prophecies, but things are sometimes so wonderful, and now that nine years have passed, humanity is still safe and sound, right? Once upon a time.
The panic prophecy has long since become an absurd joke. Oh, strange, how come the first four parables have all come true, and the fifth one does not work?
After so many years, do we have any new discoveries and understandings about many mysteries of the Mayan civilization, such as the mystery of origin, the mystery of disappearance, the mystery of the pyramids, and so on? I tell you ha, there is a new one, Uncle Five will come to decrypt it for you today.
First of all, why did this doomsday prophecy not come true? It is said that after the 2012 doomsday prophecy failed, many people have done a lot of thinking and exploration in the past nine years. So what about the results of the inquiry? We combed through it and there are roughly several points of view. The first is probability theory, which holds that Mayan prophecy is actually just a matter of probability, just like we won four times five times when we bought a lottery ticket, and it is normal that we did not win the last time.
Ah, what does the second think? We have misunderstood the Maya's understanding of the last days. The may not be what we understand as the end of the world, the earth has ushered in great changes, living things have begun to go extinct, and human civilization is disappearing, but a macroscopic celestial phenomenon. For example, the orbit of the solar system enters a new region.
Then the third kind is to say that hey how to say this third kind of words, it is estimated that some friends will be nervous again. Some argue that the Mayan prophecy did not fail. Because the Mayans say that 2012 is not the year 2012 in our calendar, it is likely to be some day in the future. In other words, the real end is still on the way. On the way, the crisis has not gone away.
Then here the fifth uncle wants to emphasize a point, the fifth uncle does not mean to create panic, just tell everyone that there is such a view. So which of these three analyses is reliable? I can only say that everyone's enthusiasm for exploring the Mayan civilization is encouraging, and if you really want to answer your questions, you have to let the experts come, and some archaeologists believe that the mystery of the unfulfilled prophecy is actually hidden in the calendar created by the Maya. Why? Some friends may know that the Maya created the most precise legislation of antiquity. For example, we now say that there are 365 days a year, and the Maya calculate 365 days. For example, scientific research now actually has 365.242128 days a year. How much did the Maya count? The error between the two is less than one in a thousand, accurate to 365.242129 days.
Does such precise legislation have anything to do with doomsday prophecy?
And it is said that the most characteristic calendar common sense of the Mayans is a little complicated here, and uncle five will not explain it here.
Then the Mayans are different, they see time as grand, a cycle. Then there's another cycle, so how many years does a cycle take? A cycle is also called a solar season, about 5200 years, why? The reason is peculiar, the Mayans believe that the sky has 13 floors, so 13 is a very sacred number. That's not the same as the mainstream in the West, plus the cycle means that the time is longer, so they choose to end every 13 Berktons, that is, 13 400 years after the sun season of about 5200 years.
It is precisely because of this concept of time that 2012 is indeed the end of the Mayan prophecy. According to archaeologists and astronomers, the time epoch of the Maya began in 3114 BC. If you use 3114 and 2012 now, isn't it almost exactly 5200 years? That is to say, 2012 is just away from the time of the Mayans, and the beginning of the era has an event in the solar system, and this cycle is about to end, so there is a saying of the end of the world.
See, but maya's doom is different from what we understand, how? First, the Maya said that the end of a time cycle refers to the end of a time cycle, and the end of the day, not the end of the earth, is what it means, it should be understood in this way. The second is that studies have found that although the Maya also believe that whenever the old era ends and a new era begins, in this alternation between the old and the new, there will be some old things destroyed, and some new things will happen at the same time. But this phenomenon of alternating the old and the new can only be called rebirth in our words, so how can the rebirth be understood as the destruction of the earth? It is estimated that some people have asked, since the Maya did not say that the earth was going to be destroyed, who came to such a devastating conclusion?
Some speculate that it is likely that some of the Western apocalyptic scholars, when they were discussing, said what they said. So don't worry about how to live your life, rather than seeing it as a prophecy, it is better to think of it as a warning to modern people by the Maya. For example, pay attention to climate change in nature, changes in the natural environment, and so on. If you also have different opinions, welcome to tell Uncle Five in the comment area, thank you!
