In the Discovery Channel documentary about Chilam Balam and 2012, it is explained that, “The word of the gods has become unintelligible, or those gods have stopped talking,” wrote Todorov, who picks up a heart rendering question that is repeated untiringly and without answer in the Mayan Book of Chilam Balam, at the end of the book in unsolved terms: “Who will be the prophet, who will be the priest who shall interpret truly the word of this book?”
Written long after the Spanish Conquest, during the 18th century, the prophecies of The Book of Chilam Balam were retrospective: “These things will be fulfilled, nobody will be able to stop them; it is necessary to love those words as the precious stones are loved, because they speak to us of the new changes.”
The Book of Chilam Balam of Chumayel narrates an original myth similar to the Popol Vuh, where the gods of the infraworld ruled and held the universe captive.
In an apocalyptic way, like other messianic stories of the time of the conquest, The Book of Chilam Balam recounts the destruction and rebirth of the nine levels of the infraworld and thirteen skies, the robbery of the Great Serpent, the deterioration of the sky, and the collapse of the Earth.
We made an interpretation of the Chilam Balam books because of our relationship with Lord Pakal Ahau as we know he is also the designated leader of the Ancient Order of Chilam Balam and its Nine Degrees, a spiritual organization which created his birth in 1952 at the time Dr. L’huillier discovered the enigmatic tomb of King Pakal of Palenque.
According to the book Days of Destiny: Cosmic Prophecies for the 21st Century by Robert Ghost Wolf (2003, pp.175), he quotes that, “there is one occurrence which would also agree in approximate time line with the Toltec prophecy of the return of Quetzalcoatl in the 13th Toltec Era. This is, as yet to come, only partially understood as we must again look at the holistic picture. There is the implication in the Chilam Balam books indicating that there would be a coming of two great Prophets, one right after the other!
The Chilam Balam priests explain, “One goes forth as an emissary. Another awakens Itzamna Kauil (God of the Heavens). There will apparently be at least two important Lords who manifest themselves at this time, one as an ambassador, preparing the way, and the other appearing as the one who gives the world-uniting philosophy of the Mayas.”
From this interesting explanation, we know the 2012 Mayan Prophecy is proceeding according to Chilam Balam timeline. In 1987, there were two human manifestations that appeared almost simultaneouly. Both persons call themselves 2012 Time Witnesses for a specific reason. The first occurrence was under the person of Dr. Jose Arguelles publishing his book, The Mayan Factor: Path Beyond Technology as he continues as an ambassador of the Maya knowledge, and the second manifestation represented by Lord Pakal Ahau, publishing his Trilogy website and explaining his spiritual work as Chilam Balam predicted, and the concept of Mayan matrices mathematics, which gained a lot of attention in CERN scientific circles, and later publishing a further revision of the Tortuguero Monument 6 of the 2012 Prophecy.
We believe these occurrences are not a coincidence, but the culmination of the accurate prophecies made by the great Mayan genius of the Chilam Balam astronomers-priests. Is it a coincidence of what Chilam Balams wrote? We think not.
NOTES FROM THE EDITOR: In the Book of Chilam Balam of Chumayel by Ralph L. Roys (1930), that appears online (link above), reference 165:5 explains Kauil is an obsolete word meaning food. Cf. kauilyah, to beg for food (Motul Dictionary). It also appears to be the name of a god as in Itzamna Kauil. Kauil is also a common family name in Yucatan. However, this partial description does not correspond with the term Itzamna Kauil. Lord Pakal Ahau made a clarification from the Maya language today that the Yucatec term Kauil applies to Itzamna Kawiil, meaning the symbol of the Royal Ruling Scepter of the Maya Kings transferred to each dynasty by divine rights.
