Can planet earth still be saved?
By Jaime Licauco

MANILA, Philippines—We are now living
in the end times. Let there be no doubt about
that!
We are witnessing the last dying breaths of Mother
Earth as she struggles to survive the people’s
cruelty out of greed and ignorance.
Warnings of great prophets, from Nostradamus
to Edgar Cayce, are unheeded. Even chilling statistics
on global warming have not moved governments to
action. Some officials even consider the warnings
to be a great hoax.
The attitude is similar to that of a cancer patient
whose first reaction is denial. Action to stem
the disease is not taken until it is too late.
Author Hal Lindsay wrote about the end times
in his best-selling book “The Late Great
Planet Earth.” He described the terrible
destruction of our planet as revealed in the Apocalypse
of St. John. People did not take him seriously.
In agreement
I find intriguing the fact that almost all major
prophecies concerning the end times agree that
the terrible event will occur sometime in the
decade of the year 2000, that means around 2010.
Nostradamus’ prophecies stop in the year
2020 if I remember right. Why couldn’t he
see beyond that? Is it because Earth will be gone
by then?
Said John Hogue in his book “The Millennium
Book of Prophecy, Visions and Predictions”:
“The clearest warnings about the final
conflagration come from the Hopi Indians of the
American Southwest... they see themselves as custodians
of those secrets the Great Spirit gave man to
help him establish a harmonious relationship with
nature.
“In 1948 the Hopi elders broke their long
silent witness of man’s pathological treatment
of the Earth and shared their prophecies with
the outer world. The elders spoke of prior human
epochs which rose to great technological heights
only to destroy himself. They believe it will
happen again unless humans change.”
But it may be too late. The Mayan calendar prophecies
placed the end of the present Earth cycle at the
Winter Solstice of Dec. 21, 2012, only five short
years from now.
The pre-Columbian Mayans observed and recorded
movements of the heavens for 4,000 years and developed
a calendar so accurate that any given day could
be ascertained without duplication for 370,000
years.
The Mayans knew that sun spots and solar flares
had a direct link to the rise and fall of civilizations
on earth.
The significance of the year 2012, according
to novelist Benjamin Anastas in a July article
in the New York Times Magazine Section, “first
entered the public consciousness two decades ago
this August with the Harmonic Convergence organized
by Jose Arguelles, author of a number of esoteric
books about the Mayan cosmos and his telepathically
received prophecies.”
Earth-changing event
Arguelles organized and promoted the metaphysical
significance of the convergence of different planets
in our solar system as an earth-changing event
requiring 144,000 participants, “the number
that echoed Mayan mathematics and the Book of
Revelation—to free the planet from the dissonant
influence of western science and synchronize with
the wave harmonic of history set to culminate
in 2012.”
Large crowds of people all over the world heeded
the call (including myself) and gathered in sacred
places like Stonehenge in England, Mt. Shasta
in California, Mt. Banahaw in the Philippines,
and even Central Park in New York.
I was in Houston, Texas, then and joined several
hundred New Agers chanting and swaying at a Houston
Park.
What would the post-2012 world be like? According
to Arguelles, “It will be a world of universal
telepathy. We will be living in a new time, by
a 13-month, 28-day synchronometer that will facilitate
our telepathy by keeping us in harmony with everything
all the time.”
Those who have not evolved highly enough will
be taken away in “silver ships,” presumably
unidentified flying objects (UFOs).
Arguelles is now in New Zealand preparing for
the transition.
Before the end of the current cycle in 2012,
there will be great upheavals, the likes of which
have never been seen before. Earthquakes and volcanic
eruptions will topple big buildings and sink whole
countries and islands.
Few places will be safe. Those deserving and
have developed a sixth sense or intuition will
be told where to go.
In the light of all these seemingly inevitable
predictions, what can people do? Let me quote
the last paragraph of Hogue’s book:
“The key to endless tomorrows is the realization
that you, me, all of us, are the problem. Stop
running away from the seeds of every human misery.
Stop making excuses for the past. Your only home
in the cosmos is on fire and every one of us is
equally responsible for lighting the match and
looking the other way. You are the problem, and
you are also the answer. The first step toward
saving the world is within.”
