Mayan Calendar article
http://www.trans4mind.com/counterpoint/barrios.shtml
in which he explains the authentic Mayan point of view, which is that it can be a time of transformation. I found it fascinating. Considering that the calendar predicted Cortes' coming to the day, I do pay some attention! I found the comments at the end of the article, about how to live in a more harmonious way, to be a good reminder. Mastering the breath is mentioned and coincidentally I have been working a lot with my breath lately, ever since a cardiologist in Ajijic told me my heart is great but my breath is not!
