Hierarchical model of the Nine Underworlds
of Creation symbolized by a pyramid built in Nine levels.
The Unitary and Dualistic nature of the respective Underworlds have been indicated. Here are the website addresses for two Google videos - 3 hours in total - containing a presentation by the late Ian Xel Lungold on the meaning of the Mayan Calendar. Each developmental stage of the 'pyramid' of the calendar is explained, together with events which happened at each stage, and what is likely to happen when the calendar ends.

A Brief History of Mayan Majix
Mayan Majix was founded in 1998 by Mayan calendar researcher and artist Ian Xel Lungold. At that time, Ian had just completed an important journey to Guatemala where he met with thirteenth generation Mayan shaman and elder Don Alejandro Perez Oxlaj. The purpose of the meeting was to show Don Alejandro his Conversion Codex and verify that the calendar count was correct as per the Maya. Ian left the meeting with assurance that the count was correct. Upon his return from this trip Ian met up with Mike Shore who became his webmaster. Mike was a 3D artist and a trained behavioral scientist with a keen interest in the Maya. He began the Mayan Majix website featuring basic Mayan calendar information and Ian’s hand made Mayan jewelry line. In 1999, Ian had his Mayan Calendar / Conversion Codex printed in Mexico and began the sale and distribution of the Codex. In 2000, he moved to Cancun, Mexico where he met Dr. Calleman. Calleman had recently completed his manuscript for his first book ”The Mayan Calendar – Solving the Greatest Mystery of Our Time” and was in search of a publisher. This is where Ian was exposed to Calleman’s theories which became the primary source material for Ian’s Mayan calendar talks and the Mayan Majix website. Ian returned to the USA and eventually settled in Sedona, Arizona in 2001. On February 8th, 2001, Ian was interviewed by radio talk show host Art Bell. This interview brought Ian and Mayan Majix a tremendous wave of attention. With this boost Ian was primed to put together his first talks on the Mayan Calendar. This is the time period where Ian met Madaline Weber who became his partner assisting him in developing and promoting his Mayan calendar talks. From the time period of 2002 - 2004, Ian gave numerous talks in the USA and Canada some of which were video taped. Ian had a unique idea for that time (pre-You Tube) by making a request at the end of each talk for people to obtain a video tape and to make copies and share them with family and friends. Ian’s heartfelt request for help in getting the word out about the Mayan calendar snowballed to the point where Ian’s videos have been viewed around the world. On November 16, 2005, Ian Xel Lungold passed away . Since Ian’s passing with cancer, Mike and Madaline have kept the Mayan Majix website going in honor of Ian and his work. They are continually amazed at the number of well wishers and the support they receive from people around the world who are just now discovering Ian’s Mayan calendar talks. Mayan Majix continues to work with Dr. Calleman and other Mayan calendar experts to further the research and education on the Mayan calendar. In 2008, Mayan Majix had the privilege of producing a DVD featuring Dr. Calleman interviewing Don Alejandro Perez Oxlaj about the Mayan calendar and Mayan prophecies. The DVD is titled “The Mayan New Dawn.” In February 2009, Mike and Madaline formed the Mayan Majix Foundation (501c3) to educate people on the Mayan Calendar. It seems very fitting that Ian began his journey to Guatemala in 1998 meeting with Mayan elder Don Alejandro and now 11 years later his website is playing a key role in introducing the world to the Mayan Calendar and the Mayan prophecies. http://www.mayanmajix.com/ |
