hi guys,

found this piece on niburu.nl
i'm not really in to this 2012 thing, but if there's something to happen, it may be nice to know.

this article speaks about that 2012 will be the beginning of a golden age, according to the ''Brahma-vaivarta Purana'' (a sacred Hindu text, as i was told)

Golden Age to begin in 2012
From David Hedges

In the “Brahma-Vaivarta Purana”, Lord Krishna tells Ganga Devi that a Golden Age will come in the Kali Yuga - one of the four stages of development that the world goes through as part of the cycle of eras, as described in Hindu scriptures. Lord Krishna predicted that this Golden Age will start 5,000 years after the beginning of the Kali Yuga, and will last for 10,000 years.
Mayan Calendar Matches Hindu Calendar
It is interesting that this prediction of the emergence of a new world is prophesied to appear about the same time that the Mayans predicted it to come! The Mayan calendar began with the Fifth Great Cycle in 3114 BC and will end on 21 December 2012 AD. The Hindu Kali Yuga calendar began on 18 February 3102 B.C. There is only a difference of 12 years between the Hindu's beginning of the Kali Yuga and the Mayan's beginning of the Fifth Great Cycle.

Golden Age Could Begin in 2012
The ancient Hindus 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. This is the same year that the Mayans predict rebirth of our planet. It is also about 5113 solar years of 365.24 days per year, and 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!

Mayan Prophecy Matches Hindu Prophecy
It is amazing that both calendars began at about the same time over 5,000 years ago and both calendars predict a totally new world and/or golden age after about 5,000 years into their calendars! We are definitely on to something with these Mayan and Hindu 2012 predictions. Historically, this is an amazing fact since these two ancient cultures did not have any contact.

I'm a Hindu - does that make me ancient? LOL
Also, yes the Puranas are equivalent to the Holy Bible - it's our sacred texts written by sages and narrated by God - so it is proposed.
Hinduism came before Mayan tradition its over 100,000 years old, or timeless rather since it began with time.
I honestly and personally don't believe anything will happen in 2012, except maybe people will get a more of a general realization on life.
Maybe we will have answers we have been looking for through science, maybe we won't. Maybe the Large Hadron Collider will answer some questions or just maybe LISA in 2012 will finally solve the issues on the multi-dimensions of space/time revealing all 10 dimensions.
I really don't think that God Himself will come down to reveal Himself upon us mere folk, it's something we need to work towards to reach Him on the mundane.
I think we need to examine what ways we could possibly change. According to religious belief we have to be seeing some Deity called Kalki (Avatar) in this age, that has NOT happened yet.
Therefore this whole thing could be incorrect, or maybe its a great delusion - who knows. Take it with a grain of salt.

At some point in any given year, several people will have a similar idea, which is one of the reasons we have a patent office.

food for thought
