Book excerpt: "The Rescue is not a science fiction book, is a book about ancient and modern events." "It took a lot of guts to write this book, and perhaps you could do with even more courage to read it. Probably the intellectual will call it, "nonsense." Since his intellect, do match the freethinking of a non-academic writer. Without a doubt, he will place this book on the Index of books never to mention. Undoubtedly other readers with open arms will accept it, and recognize it as a amazing narrations; and when they come across with the opportunity of discovering that our past can be even more mysterious and full of adventures that the search for our future." As a Philontologist (philosophy and ontology), George Romero will attempt to interpret the mysteries that guide our thoughts to externalize some real issues that are affecting our way of existence in our daily lives, which he call it "The New Law Order." The essence and the key point of this theory, is in-how it happened thousands of years ago when the cosmic gods visited us for the first time... this is another Government coverup? What top secrets are we talking about! It is what the American government is hiding from us! They still are denying the existence and the appearance of the UFOs in our sky. What is the real Rescue of humanity in the years to come?

Malinalli's Indian tribe has been conquered by the warrior Aztecs. When her father is killed in battle, she is raised by her wisewoman grandmother who imparts to her the knowledge that their founding forefather god, Quetzalcoatl, had abandoned them after being made drunk by a trickster god and committing incest with his sister. But he was determined to return with the rising sun and save her tribe from their present captivity.

The two fall passionately in love, but Malinalli gradually comes to realize that Cortez's thirst for conquest is all too human, and that for gold and power, he is willing to destroy anyone, even his own men, even their own love.

Book Cosmos  Values  and Consciousness in Latin American Digital Culture

Download or read book Cosmos Values and Consciousness in Latin American Digital Culture written by Angelica J. Huizar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-05-19 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book understands digital cultural production of electronic literatures and digital art by looking at electronic and digital works that produce subjective positionality, clouded knowledges of quantum theories, and metaphysical patterns grounded in a cultural ideology. This book underlines a conceptual framework for understanding how digital media impacts reading, approaching, and even interpreting social reality. The qualitative analyses interpret the current zeitgeist, and the works selected speak of the diverse, sometimes regionalized, and often multi-ethnic reality of the Latin American experience. The analyses elaborate on how artists reflect both the world they live in and a universal consciousness. These artists are not simply “digitalizing literature,” and these works are more than techy creations; rather, they make us think of other directions and connections.

Book New Age in Latin America

Download or read book New Age in Latin America written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2016-06-10 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is at the crossroads where a New Age sensibility, advancing like an ecumen of worldwide spirituality without national, cultural, or ecclesiastical frontiers, meets Latin America's syncretic religions, practiced by groups of people wiht African or indigenous roots or developed from the tradition of popular Catholicism. The Syncretic character of the two sensibilities makes both the New Age and popular religion behave like two, syncretizing and syncreticizable matrices of meaning. This book opens up a rich vein of debate with new dilemmas and discussions, that will provide a framework for a new field of study in anthropology. What new ways of signifying living and experiencing religion is the New Age generating in Latin America? What are its limits? Contributors are: Alejandra Aguilar Ros, Santiago Bastos, Lizette Campechano, Sylvie Pédron Colombani, Alejandro Frigerio, Jacques Galinier, Silas Guerriero, Cristina Gutiérrez Zúñiga,Nahayeilli B. Juárez Huet, José Guilherme C.Magnani, Antoinette Molinié, María Teresa Rodríguez, Deis Siqueira, Carlos Alberto Steil, Engel Tally, Renée de la Torre, and Marcelo Zamora.

Book Maya Ethnolinguistic Identity

Download or read book Maya Ethnolinguistic Identity written by Brigittine M. French and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2010-04-15 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this valuable book, ethnographer and anthropologist Brigittine French mobilizes new critical-theoretical perspectives in linguistic anthropology, applying them to the politically charged context of contemporary Guatemala. Beginning with an examination of the “nationalist project” that has been ongoing since the end of the colonial period, French interrogates the “Guatemalan/indigenous binary.” In Guatemala, “Ladino” refers to the Spanish-speaking minority of the population, who are of mixed European, usually Spanish, and indigenous ancestry; “Indian” is understood to mean the majority of Guatemala’s population, who speak one of the twenty-one languages in the Maya linguistic groups of the country, although levels of bilingualism are very high among most Maya communities. As French shows, the Guatemalan state has actively promoted a racialized, essentialized notion of “Indians” as an undifferentiated, inherently inferior group that has stood stubbornly in the way of national progress, unity, and development—which are, implicitly, the goals of “true Guatemalans” (that is, Ladinos). French shows, with useful examples, how constructions of language and collective identity are in fact strategies undertaken to serve the goals of institutions (including the government, the military, the educational system, and the church) and social actors (including linguists, scholars, and activists). But by incorporating in-depth fieldwork with groups that speak Kaqchikel and K’iche’ along with analyses of Spanish-language discourses, Maya Ethnolinguistic Identity also shows how some individuals in urban, bilingual Indian communities have disrupted the essentializing projects of multiculturalism. And by focusing on ideologies of language, the author is able to explicitly link linguistic forms and functions with larger issues of consciousness, gender politics, social positions, and the forging of hegemonic power relations.

Book Remember to Remember  the Mayan Mysteries

Download or read book Remember to Remember the Mayan Mysteries written by Carol E. Parrish-Harra Ph. D. and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-10-28 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compilation and Insights Remember to Remember: The Mayan Mysteries As told by a wisdom Teacher Awakening to Mythological thinking is difficult any time but to depart from institutional thinking and enter into the world of intuitive awareness is the opportunity of today. This compilation and personal Insights to the Mayan Prophesies brings a new comprehension in Remember to Remember: -The Lost Mysteries as the known and unknown carry us toward a new height of understanding.. When one approaches the Maya Mysteries as parables and legends, as well as calendars and mathematics, a new doorway opens. Beginning with the lost worlds of Lemuria and Atlantis we find ourselves caught up in the story of an empire that has left its impact. An adventure a waits, true, but this glimpse of a future more creative and hopeful takes us to the wonders of a world unknown. From a false belief of envisioning our native forefathers and mothers as primitive natives we gain an awesome recognition of the wonders of encoded hieroglyphs; we move into respect and understanding through parables, legends, and oral teachings. A major aspect of the authors perspective is to integrate the contribution of the Maya with other wisdom traditions. Many of the lingering myths of questionable ideas are clearly included in the mythology of these people. Terms avoided in the rational and intellectual community rest in the psyche of all America and as we stir these ideas come alive. The goal of evolution is presented clearly in the unfolding of these long secreted concepts, such as sky-people, hollow earth theory, and others.. From spirit/space to science/religion we get an amazing understanding of what is in store for humanity at the close of the Ninth Hell; Has Humanity achieved it goal or has it missed the mark?

Book The 8 Calendars of the Maya

Download or read book The 8 Calendars of the Maya written by Hunbatz Men and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-12-29 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mayan daykeeper Hunbatz Men reveals the multi-calendar system of the Maya that guided the lives of his ancestors and how it can guide us today • The first book to reveal the secrets of the Mayan Pleiades calendar: the Tzek’eb • Explains how the Maya used their astronomical knowledge to guide their lives on Earth The Mayan Calendar has taken on special prominence with the imminent arrival of 2012, a date that many claim is the end of that calendar. However, as Mayan elder and daykeeper Hunbatz Men shows, the cosmological understanding of his ancestors was so sophisticated that they had not one, but many calendars, each based on the cycles of different systems in the cosmos. In this book he reveals for the first time the Tzek’eb, or Pleiades, Calendar of 26,000 years, which charts the revolution of our solar system around Alcyone, the central star of the Pleiades system. He also discusses the K’uuk’ulcan Calendar of the 4 seasons of the solar year and the wheel of the K’altunes Calendar, which is composed of 13 cycles of 20 years each that form a calendar of 260 years. In traditional Mayan culture the computation of time was not determined by simple economic or social motives. The calendars served the higher purpose of synchronizing the lives of human beings and their societies to the great cosmic pulsation, to the rhythm of the annual seasons, and to the other cycles that dictate changes upon Earth. Mayan understanding of the cosmic cycles was so exact that this knowledge could be used to influence all stages of life--from planning when to conceive (parents could choose not only the sex of their child but its vocation and future destiny) to plotting out the course of the entire society. Pyramids played a crucial role in applying this wisdom because, as Hunbatz Men shows, they were able to produce and transform energy in accordance with the cosmic cycles charted by the calendars. This book reveals for the first time the wisdom of the multi-calendar Mayan system and how it can help guide our modern world.

Book Los mayas y la entrada a la quinta dimensi  n

Download or read book Los mayas y la entrada a la quinta dimensi n written by Dilzik Moys N. and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-02 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los mayas y la entrada a la quinta dimensión. Es una investigación en torno al calendario maya, el Tzolkín o "Encantamiento del sueño" que aporta los siguientes descubrimientos del autor, los cuales están relacionados: otros secretos acerca de las formas espirales; el sentido correcto de un antiguo y básico axioma universal; el desciframiento de una pieza arqueológica desconocida; la decodificación de la Cruz maya de la vida; la decodificación del glifo maya kin y otros análisis pertinentes. La obra incluye una revisión del Tzolkín actualizado como Encantamiento del sueño, en la que se señala de qué partes se compone, para qué nos sirve ahora, cuál es su misión y todas sus implicaciones planetarias. Hay un capítulo dedicado a la Federación Galáctica, una organización de seres de luz avanzados conocidos como extraterrestres benignos provenientes de las Pléyades, Sirio, Arcturus y otras estrellas, quienes enviaron el Tzolkín maya a la Tierra. El capítulo 7 es un recorrido anti histórico por el misterio de los 5 principales grupos culturales surgidos en Mesoamérica: olmeca, maya, zapoteca, teotihuacano y los kin planetarios de la Nación Arcoiris Central. Luego viene un profundo análisis sobre el caótico y oscuro calendario de 12 meses o gregoriano, usado mundialmente, y su hechizada plantilla de origen presentada por vez primera (otra aportación del autor) y todas las situaciones que ha sido capaz de generar. Los últimos capítulos son dedicados a la nueva cultura galáctica, a la religión verdadera, al Telektonon, que es otra fase del Tzolkín, al Cinturón pleyadiano de fotones, uno de los factores de ingreso a la quinta dimensión de existencia y también se despeja la duda de qué va a ocurrir en el último mes del temible año 2012. Al final hay un sumario de otros interesantes libros del autor en formato digital y un glosario galáctico breve.
