It might appear as if the wheels are falling off the world. It may even be that we are presently bringing about our own demise through environmental destruction.
But according to one expert on the Mayan Calander, the Mayans never meant for 2012 to be looked at as the end.

To moderns in Western culture, we see things as having a beginning and an end. We see polarities. But to the ancient traditional minds, they generally saw things in terms of cycles. The pattern of existence could be found in circles.
Susan L. Wallace , a professor with doctorates in education and history and who once worked as the curator of Vizcaya in Miami, says that the Mayan Calander date of 2012 simply marked an end of a cycle.
According to Wallace, the speculation on the end of time comes from published findings on Mayan culture and specifically the ancients’ three-part calendar.
Ancient peoples thought of time as cyclical, she said. In Western cultures we believe in a linear concept of time and Newtonian physics. It turns out the Mayan calendar is a little more accurate than ours. It’s based on the cycles they observed in the sky.
Their secret of time, called precession, was based on the physical anomaly of a slow wobble of the Earth on its axis. They delineated a circle in the sky tracing the track of the Earth. It took 26,000 years to do this and that is what the calendar is based on. They divided it into great ages of 5,000 years. This is also seen in Asian cultures , Thais, Chinese, Buddhists.
Wallace said the Mayan calendar predicts a great alignment of the solar system occurring within the center of our galaxy, marking the end of the fifth age.
It is an opportunity for mankind to make a huge leap in consciousness,she said.
Walace says she looks on 2o12 as a chance for humanity to raise their consciousness and move beyond the wars and eco-destruction.
The galactic alignment of 2012 should be looked on as an opportunity for humanity to create the type of reality that they want to see.
It is an opportunity for mankind to make a huge leap in consciousness,she said. We may take a great step ahead in evolution. Humanity must combine the mental with the intuitive,” Wallace says.
The Mahayanist Buddhists call this type of unity between the heart and the mind--Bodhicitta. It is the wisdom heart/mind. Living a life in Bodhicitta combines the mental with the intuitive. It is a state of being that we can raise our consciousness to usher in this new age. But first we must have the desire and the intent so that we can help make it a reality.
