Your Facilitators

Gregg Braden

Join Gregg Braden on this once-in-a-5,125 year experience as he shares the ancient discoveries of fractal time and the key to life-affirming shifts that we can make in our personal lives, as well as collectively in our families, communities, and between nations. This program is a rare opportunity to find new meaning, and new hope, for the positive new world that is emerging before our eyes! Through a powerful synthesis of easy-to-understand science and the wisdom traditions of the past, this multi-media program explores the triggers underlying the unprecedented cycles of global, and personal, change in our lives today.

Gregg Braden is a New York Times best-selling author, a former Senior Computer Systems Designer for Martin Marietta Aerospace, computer geologist for Phillips Petroleum, and the first Technical Operations Manager for Cisco Systems. For over 20 years he has searched the remote monasteries of Egypt, Peru, and Tibet for the life-giving secrets that were encoded in the language of our most cherished traditions. His work has led to such pioneering books as The God Code, The Divine Matrix, The Spontaneous Healing of Belief, Fractal Time, and his newest, Deep Truth. Gregg's work is published in 17 languages and 30 countries and shows beyond any reasonable doubt that the key to our future lies in the wisdom of our past.


Gregg Braden

For many years Hunbatz Men has been devoted to revive the wisdom and culture of the ancient Mayas. He is an authentic Maya, born in Wenkal, Yucatan, Mexico, and was raised to be a shaman, a holy man, since the age of one. He is a respected ceremonial leader as well as a Mayan Daykeeper- an authority on History, Chronology, Calendars and Cosmic Knowledge in Mayan civilization. He has authored several books, including: The Eight Calendars of the Maya: The Pleiadian Cycle and the Key to Destiny, Secrets of Mayan Science/Religion, and other books putting the Mayan cosmology and philosophy in a twentieth century perspective. He is founder of all the Mayan Mysteries Schools of the world and has started reconsecrating the sacred sites of the Mayan culture throughout Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, and Belize.

His native language is Maya Itza, a language that is mantric, onomatopoeic and reversible, i.e., the intonation of each word invokes the sacred aspect of life it describes, each word sounds like what it describes and each word can be reversed resulting in another word that deepens one's understanding of the original word.

Hunbatz Men has widely lectured throughout North and South America and Europe. His lectures include topics like: Mayan mathematics, astrology, and philosophy; the letters “T”, “O”, and “G”: as the origin of humanity; Mayan sexual education, social organization, and ceremonial centers; Kundalini Maya; sacred symbols of Tamuanchan; the 1992 Sun Walk from Alaska to Mexico City; new commercial ventures that will be available to Native Americans and other minorities in the United States; and the importance of communicating the Native American thought and its dissemination throughout the world.

When Hunbatz presents a lecture he carefully ties a hand woven band around his head, and he asks permission from the Creator to help him understand everything, especially the high knowledge and our connection with the Earth, Time spent with Hunbatz Men is a unique blend of sacred and experiential ceremony liberally sprinkled with Mayan chants, prophecies, cosmic and solar wisdom, and language lessons.

Robert Bauval (best-selling author of The Orion Mystery), which will be available on the tour, was born in Egypt in 1948. A construction engineer, his interest in Egyptology is long standing, having lived in Egypt and elsewhere in the Middle East for much of his life. In the 1980s he developed a line of study linking the pyramids and the so-called Pyramid Texts with astronomy and famously published the bestselling Orion Mystery.

"Chichen-Itza is just the ideal place for the Winter Solstice of 2012 to witness the dawn of a New Age for Mankind, and I am very excited to be part of this event. I will be talking of stars and pyramids, of time and the cosmos, and our role in the Universal scheme. So don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to share with us this very sacred place at this very special time!"

Also presenting are these leading transformational teachers and authors:

Brooks Agnew

Brooks Agnew grew up in Pasadena, California around JPL and Cal Tech. He entered the Air Force in 1973, where he graduated top in his class in electronics engineering. He was one of the most successful scientists with ground probing radar technology in the nation for oil and gas exploration. He received his bachelors in Chemistry from Tennessee Technological University with honors. He is a Certified Quality Engineer and a SixSigma Black Belt and a member of the Society of Automotive Engineering. He is also world-renowned lecturer, veteran documentarian on History, National Geographic, and TruTV programs, and a six-time Amazon best-selling author.

His latest book Remembering the Future: The Physics of the Soul and Time Travel was ranked in Amazon and Barnes and Noble's top ten in two categories at the same time.

Jim Berenholtz

Jim Berenholtz is a multifaceted artist who has been training and collaborating with native cultures in their living Earth wisdom for nearly 40 years. Whether as musician or dancer, writer or speaker, painter or ceremonialist, he is devoted to bringing forth the organic intelligence that is natural to our human species. His passionate blend of arts and activism celebrates unity in diversity while building bridges for peace.

At the Maya 2012 Gathering Jim will speak on using art, music, dance, and ceremony as ways to make our personal contributions to planetary transformation. He will also guide participants through experiential processes that open them to their own unique creative role in the collective shift.

Jim is the author of the “Teachings of the Feathered Serpent” trilogy which includes “Journey to the Four Directions”, “Eye of the Dragonfly”, and “Shedding Skins - A Snake Odyssey”. In 1987 he was International Coordinator for the Sacred Sites Festival associated with Harmonic Convergence. Since 1989, beginning at the Mayan temples of Palenque, he has been performing transformational snakeskin ceremonies at sacred sites worldwide, and has completed 55 ceremonies thus far. His work with the sacred serpent energy has also manifested through dance performances with live pythons and boa constrictors. In 2003 Jim produced the Hollywood extravangaza “Temple of the Cosmic Serpent” with his dance troupe Serpentium. This production drew a great deal of its material and inspiration from the ancient Maya. Through dance Jim also celebrates and honors the Hindu god Shiva as the one who destroys the old forms that no longer serve us in order to make way for the New Creation. In that sense Shiva is very aligned with the potentiality present in the cosmic alignment of December 21, 2012.

As a musician, Jim is co-founder of the musical duo Xochimoki, a leading force for nearly three decades in the revival of the ancient music of the Aztec, Maya, and other Mesoamerican civilizations. As a composer of music for theatre, dance, film, audio recordings and the concert stage, Jim’s specialty is weaving together the classical and contemporary musical styles of the Western World with the indigenous sounds of ancient and native cultures. His choral work “EKEL CHACIL” (Black Rain) is sung entirely in ancient Maya, and was commissioned and performed by the Global Harmony Chorus in 2008. It delves into the ancient cosmovision of the Maya civilization by setting revelatory and ritual texts from their books of creation and prophecy. It was specifically composed with 2012 in mind.

Jim is a frequent performer and lecturer at the de Young Museum of Art in his hometown of San Francisco. In November, 2009 he was their Artist in Residence with a multi-arts installation entitled “Temple of the New Sun”. It featured his vibrant paintings and mandalas inspired by the ancient Egyptians, Maya and Toltec, as well as a photographic journey focused on the ancient pyramid cultures of our planet. Last year Jim did a series of presentations at the de Young in connection with their monumental Olmec exhibition. Among his presentations was a lecture on “Jaguar Shamanism in the Americas”.

Jim looks forward to a dynamic group experience for December 2012 in the Yucatan, where everybody contributes to the manifestation of the new paradigms being awakened.

D.M. Murdock/Acharya S.

D.M. Murdock, also known as "Acharya S," is an independent scholar of comparative religion and mythology. As an undergraduate, Murdock studied Classics, Greek Civilization, at Franklin & Marshall College, in Pennsylvania, USA. She also did post-graduate study with the American School of Classical Studies at Athens, Greece. Murdock has spent the past several decades studying both formally and informally: mythology, religion, history, languages, archaeology, archaeoastronomy and other disciplines relating to the fields of religious history dating back thousands of years. In addition to English, she can read, speak and/or write French, Spanish, German, Italian, ancient and modern Greek, Latin, Portuguese and a smattering of other languages such as Sanskrit, Hebrew, Egyptian, etc. Murdock frequently does research in ancient languages such as Greek, Latin, Hebrew and Sanskrit, as needed for biblical studies and early Christian history.

Murdock/Acharya is the author of several books and many articles on the subjects of comparative religion and mythology, including The Christ Conspiracy, Suns of God, Who Was Jesus?, Christ in Egypt and others. Her work has been published both online and in print in a variety of media. She has also helped create several videos, including a two-hour interview of her speaking about related subjects. Murdock has appeared in a number of documentaries, including "God in the Box," which has been featured at several film festivals. She has also appeared on numerous radio programs, including the Alan Cohen show.

At the gathering in December 2012, D.M. Murdock will be presenting a talk entitled, "2012: A New Beginning." As a specialist in comparative religion and mythology, especially as concerns its nature-worshiping or astrotheological roots, Murdock will discuss the striking parallels between Christian and Mexican religion and mythology, demonstrating a unifying thread that underlies much of human culture. Here is the encouraging and good news for the coming age determined by Mesoamerican astronomy and calendric science: We are one human family whose cultural divisions are largely based on observations of our natural surroundings, rather than actual disparities. Our diverse global cultures emanate largely from the same root, with similar basic religious and mythological archetypes. Thus, instead of loathing our differences, we can celebrate our cultural uniqueness as part of the overall human experience.

Rob Speight has been dowsing for almost 15 years since he first fashioned two metal coat hangers into L rods and walked around his garden. After being amazed at his early discoveries he became an avid reader on the subject and member of the British Society of Dowsers.

Rob focused his dowsing skills on earth energies and ancient sites, a fascination he developed after reading Robert Bauval's 'The Orion Mystery'. Rob was lucky enough to accompany Robert, Graham Hancock, John Anthony West, Robert Temple and John Grigsby on the 'Stars and Signs' Tour to Egypt in 1996 and from then on he was hooked!

After that time Rob ran a very successful website, The Noise Room - Ancient History, Modern Mysteries and New Research, from 1996 - 2006 as well as developing his passion for photographing ancient sites.

As well as working as a professional dowser (amongst other things!), Rob will be releasing his first book, Dowsing Sacred Sites in the summer of 2012.

At the conference, Rob will be speaking on dowsing at sacred sites and offering practical demonstrations on dowsing. He will show how sacred sites harness the energy of the landscape and the earth to create a sense of the spiritual, something that our ancient forefathers were well aware of and physically in tune with. He will give a brief summary on the history of dowsing, some practical hands on dowsing basics, details of what you might expect to find at a sacred site.

L. A. Marzulli

L. A. Marzulli is the author of The Nephilim Trilogy. The Nephilim Trilogy made the CBA best sellers list and continues to thrill readers a decade after the first book in the series was published. Marzulli received an honorary doctorate from Pacific International University for his work on the Nephilim Trilogy. Marzulli is also the author of the non-fiction work, Politics, Prophecy & the Supernatural. The book packs a hard hitting expose of how the current political landscape may bring about ancient Biblical prophecies, which then may trigger supernatural events that are foretold in the book of Daniel and Revelation.

The Alien Interviews, features 17 personal, intense interviews with people who have been directly involved with the UFO phenomena. The book was written for the skeptic with various world-views presented as to what these phenomena may be.

Marzulli teamed up with film producer Richard Shaw to create the Watchers series. Their first offering Watchers 1: UFOs are Real, Burgeoning and Not Going Away, is in it's fifth printing, while Watchers 2: Signs in the Heavens and Earth, may be the only DVD that offers a Biblical answer to the off the charts weather activity that we are experiencing. With all the tornados, earthquakes of 7.0 and greater, flooding, riots and the rise of lawlessness, it's not business as usual! Recently Shaw and Marzulli completed Watchers 3: Fingerprints of the Supernatural, which covers the two sun phenomena, The Arab Spring, The Shroud of Turin, and the Torah Codes.

Marzulli's latest book, The Cosmic Chess Match, was released in the fall of 2011. The book covers the ongoing cosmic battle that has been waged in an unseen dimension for millennia and according to Marzulli is about to spill over into our dimension soon.

Marzulli has lectured on this fascinating subject presenting his exhaustive research at conferences and churches as well as appearances and interviews on numerous national radio and television programs.

Marzulli will be presenting on the possible connection between information that is found in the ancient book of Enoch and the legendary Quetzelcoatl. He will explore the similarities, that may in fact, connect these two seemingly dissimilar entities that appeared on earth thousands of years apart.
