John Major Jenkins is one of the leading authorities on 2012. Since 1986, he has traveled to Mexico and Central America, where he uncovered the core of the 2012 mystery and how it was central to ancient Mayan cosmology and philosophy. Despite extra-ordinary pressure, he has always been unwilling to divorce the spiritual content and context from the core phenomenon the galactic alignment. Jenkins has traced this perennial wisdom across the world, in various cultures, and has concluded that our time is once again about integrating opposites, and that our Western civilization needs to reintroduce wisdom and the cyclical nature of time, in order to grow.
