Predictions are being made for the year 2012 by many thinkers. It’s a thought that this year would bring the end of the world. Some people opine that this planet will undergo a transformation; it is also envisaged that humanity may experience a change in consciousness. But the certainty of this can only be decided by time. Other people have the opinion that whatever you conjecture now for December 21, 2012, you will experience it on the particular day.
This is why December 21, 2012 is much talked about. That’s the date on the Gregorian calendar when the Mayan Calendar ends abruptly. However lot of people have made some assumptions and propounded few theories for why the calendar stops or restarts on December 21, 2012. The idea that the world will undergo a transformation and the face of humanity will change does not seem to be novice because it has been on the minds of philosophers and intellectuals for a long time. It just seems to be an extension of the same idea. Jewish mystics predict that the world will transform and some change will happen but that is not imminent; this change will take another 231 years to manifest. In a more general sense it is said that this transformation is just in the beginning stage.
Jewish mystic or Kabbalist says that as per the Jewish calendar, the spiritual evolution of the world is analogous to the seven days in the week. They say that the year 6000 will be the sixth working day of the cosmic week. They also surmise that this year would represent the time when the whole world would enter Shabbat HagaDol, more specifically the Big Sabbath. A Sabbath is generally the day of the week that is meant for rest and/or worship, and is observed in many faiths. It is believed that during Big Sabbath 1000 years of sacred time and space begins. It is similar to the rise of a new moon which will bring new light to all the people of the world in terms of human consciousness and evolution.
Currently we are in the 5769th year of the Jewish calendar. The Kabbalists say that at 12:30 pm every Friday the entire Jew fraternity will prepare for the Sabbath which is expected to start from the dusk of Friday.
So what does it all insinuate? It means that the era of transformation is going to start and we must prepare ourselves for the change. And when it arrives it will be a new world altogether. People will experience a change in their consciousness and in the world in general, and according to many traditions this is called “Heaven on Earth,” or peace on earth.
The Kabbalist are very sure of this and want humans to prepare themselves to become receptive of the transformation in human consciousness. We will have to change our ways from being selfish to being selfless. In order to prepare ourselves for this transformation that will occur in the year of 2012 A.D, that is the 6000th year in the Jewish calendar, we need to develop higher forms of consciousness. We need to nurture the selfless traits in us. This consciousness that we must adapt to would allow us to give more than we receive. This would mean a transformation in our thinking process. We would focus on helping others instead of being helped.
The basic idea behind all this change is spiritual. We must try to attain a God like status by reconnecting ourselves with the Almighty. The Kabbalists have the opinion that God created this world to give us divine gifts. If we focus our attention on giving rather than receiving we will transform from receivers to givers and in that way we may replicate God. Then there would be no distinction between us and God - between the giver and receiver. And when this gap is bridged we feel connected with God. This connection will bring eternal peace into our lives. We were created so that God can bestow his goodness on us and that was the prime reason of our creation. But this does not mean that we would stop receiving God’s grace but we would develop a sense of sharing and a will to give something that we receive from others.
Change takes it own course. When we change our consciousness, it has ripple effect on the world around us. The goodness spreads easily and other people try to emulate that. It is very interesting to know that if we start preparing ourselves for the year 2012 or 6000, we will create the predicted change. Let us not be skeptical of whether the change will occur or not; let us create it. If this is the case instead of the change working upon us we would work upon the change and manipulate it to suit our needs. However, in either case, we humans stand to gain. In the wake of this whole process of transformation we would surely improve the lives of individuals and make this world a better place to live.
