Important points made by the Maya is in the warning of possible catastrophies not come first, very important we realize that it is in our power to change the results. He said it is in our power to prevent the worst case scenario self-destruction occurred, and even up to a new level of evolution.
In this process we take power, it is important that we take 2012 as the date of attention linear some point in the future that an event will occur that determines our fate. The fact is we are on the way, now, through a shift in the world age cycles. We must understand this is a process we are now in, not a product that will always come on the day and time.
In a broader sense, if we reflect on the theme of Revelation prophecy associated with 2012, we can learn a lot by looking into the original meaning of the word Revelation: Revealing of what has been hidden; lifting the veil; revealed. We can see this phenomenon in our world as a blanket was lifted, the veil is thinning, and we're shown a lot of previously hidden dimensions.
