It is hard for me to even start writing today. There were so many things we went over in terms of the history surrounding vastu. Jessie pulled material from all over to support Mayan's existence and the extent of his impact on the world (and why very few people know about him). She talked about the difference between brahmans and vishwabrahmans (of which mayan was a member). It is believed that one of mayans disciples traveled north to russia as the ukrainian language has close ties to tamil. It is also believed that one of his disciples traveled to s. america bringing the vastu information to people there. One of his disciples names was maayan (2 a's) and this is how it is written in s. america. The evidence of mayan vastu temples and structures spans the globe with even examples in Mississippi. What is crazy is that mayan was a fisherman, a carpenter, had 12 disciples...who else do we know with those characteristics? Is that a coincidence? Also the name "Abraham" in the old testament sounds like "a - brahman". And even though we spell it a certain way in english, there are other spellings and indications the old testament ultimately is paying homage or referencing Mayan. There is a close link to kaballah/judaism. It was just an amazing day — everything clicking into place. We listened to vastu music. Talked about how poetry and drama and art are influenced by vastu — or rather can be made per vastu so that they resonate with the individual in a profound way. It made me think of my dad who is so moved by music and art and literature. It is so possible that he is connecting with the divine source by exposing himself to these things! They move the abode in the heart which is where our seat of consciousness lies. It is said that to be a shilpi (sculptor/creator) one must be trained in art, music, dance, architecture, sculpture, literature in addition to mathematics. They are all important and make one well rounded. I can see looking back at my life I have been drawn to all things...from dance as a child to drawing houses constantly to considering architecture for a career, to being interested in music, considering pottery as a career...it all makes sense why I am here and it makes sense why I was so fearful of math. I think I just needed to understand why it was important and how it related to well, everything!

The way to heal (on a mass scale) and bring people closer to the divine and experience this within is through architecture. Its divine purpose it to bring people to understand the beauty of who and what they are. We talked about 2012 too. Jessie said she heard a maayan elder speak on this topic and he said some amazing things. He said that prior to 2012 we had gone through 4 cycles relating to the 4 elements earth, water, fire and air. And that in 2012 the 5th element - akasha or space - would come to the forefront. The hopi talk of the dawn of the 5th world. Makes sense - the 5th element. It will be a shift in consciousness in the way people see who they are and space will be important. Already we are seeing huge shifts...people dying, jobs changing, ideals evolving. We must do this. We must let go of baggage and not be attached so we can "fly" in the akasha. Our connection to akasha or space through built space or what we experience in the 'ethers' will be of main importance. Look at where science is going? Exploring the unseen. What we see and hear won't be as important as what we feel intuitively in our hearts. We will start opening and connecting more with what lies outside by going within and finding the space within us that resonates with the external. As above so below. It is true. The reemergence of vastu and ayurveda for example are examples of this shift. For some time they were not needed due to the darkness. But now there is a place for it.

The implications of this science are huge. Absolutely huge. I can see cities being torn down and rebuilt because people know too much. It will be more costly to keep them as is due to the negative effects of bad (or should I say unenlightened?) building and planning. There will be a re-emergence in the arts and the world will start to dance again in many ways. The way the vedic literature speaks of time is that it is circular. Much like night and day. We have a number of years that are very dark which leads to a light period which then leads to a darker period. It is how things go. It is the sin wave of creation! Highs and lows. Right now, if you consider a clock with 12 noon being the blissful completely awake time, we are at around 7. We are starting to come out of the darkest period (6) and these amazing things are emerging to show us how to find joy again from within so the the exterior can express this.
