Don Alejandro Oxlaj, who in his native language goes by the name of Wandering Wolf is head of the council of elders of the Maya and in addition head of the Indigenous Council of the Americas which has member tribes from Tierra del Fuego to Alaska. Don Alejandro spoke with the authority of the 440 person strong Mayan council of elders. Hence, his meeting with Sri Bhagavan represents an important contacts between spiritual traditions of the West and the East in a time when a flow towardsOneness may be arising and has broader implications. February 20th I went to Chennai in India to meet with Don Alejandro Oxlaj. I spent the first two days there talking with Don Alejandro andhis wife Elizabeth Araujo. Then Joseph Giove and Mario Hernandez both working with the Breakthrough Celebration joined in and a first interview with Don Alejandro, interpreted from Spanishby Elizabeth, was filmed in the park of the Theosophical World Headquartersat Adyar under a Bodhi Tree planted from a seed from the one under which Buddha is said to have been enlightened. This interview is a very important document that will later be made available more broadly. Among other things, Don Alejandro contrary to popular opinion rejected the December 21, 2012 date touted by archeologists as the ending of the Mayan calendar, and presented knowledgeabout the traditional Mayan calendar and its place among today's Maya in Guatemala. After this we made a short visit to Nemam on the way to Golden City. i On the next day Mario filmed another interview with Don Alejandro at the premises of Anandaloka with its equipment. This interview was centred more on Mayan spiritual traditions, rather than the calendar. The next day the group went to Nemam for a darshan with Bhagavanwhere reportedly some 70000 people passed through on this particular day. Don Alejandro, expressed that he saw Sri Bhagavan as an incarnation of the godShiva that was celebrated on this particular day. Don Alejandro and Elizabeth also got dikshas at Bhagavan and Amma's hutsat the GC. Another day, at sunrise, Don Alejandro led a fire ceremony at the Golden City, with materials that they had partly brought from Guatemala. This ceremony was also filmed and was a high point in Don Alejandro's visit and the participants were very moved by its humbleness and authenticity brought from another continent. This was a ceremony to the four directions including prayers to all the day signs with offerings to the fire. Later the same day this ceremony was reciprocated at the youth campus at GC where a homa was held ceremony for Don Alejandro and Elizabeth. After this Don Alejandro and Elizabeth had a meeting with Sri Bhagavan which was filmed by the Indian video team and has been said to be very moving.The Mayan guests were then also invited to return to GC and add their knowledge to the curriculum of the Oneness University. All of these films are about to be edited and will have greatdocumentary value. It is doubtful if interviews with Don Alejandro have been filmed previously when he has had the opportunity to express the Mayan view in such a straight view. The GC TV channel will send some of the material and we will do our best to disseminate it through other channels as well. Both Sri Bhagavan and the Mayan couple agreed to support the Breakthrough Celebration, which will add to the creation of a flow towards Oneness in the time ahead (www.breakthroughcelebration.com) The meetings also by themselves helped strengthen the bridge between cultures and spiritual traditions, which was also expressed by Don Alejandro.

There are however strong reasons to doubt that archaeologists, who often look upon the Mayan calendar as a superstition to begin with, would be able to address the question when the point of completion of the present creation is. I feel finding the answer to this requires a different point of departure, one where you see the Mayan calendar as a true description of the evolution of consciousness. Based on research based on such a point of departure I have come to the conclusion that the fulfillment of the present creation will take place on October 28, 2011 following which a world in the state of oneness could emerge in the year 2012. I feel however everyone should try to come to some kind of conclusion on the end date issue. Is the end date about some event that then is to happen (in the sky or elsewhere) or is it a completion and a fulfillment of an evolution that we are part of already at the present time? The Breakthrough Celebration (www.breakthroughcelebration.com) is for those that believe the Mayan calendar describes a process of evolution that we are in the midst of at the present time and want to be part of generating a flow towards manifesting oneness on this planet by the year 2012. It is for those that recognize that this can only be the result of a process that is generated at the present time and not later. For the kick-off of this process on May 27-28 2006 plans are under way in a number of places across the planet to organize events and the Forum of http://breakthroughcelebration.com/forum is a place where such things may be announced. On this site a few initial ambassadors are also announced. These are people that from different perspectives see the evolution of consciousness as linked to the Mayan calendar and want to be part of the generation of a flow towards oneness. These ambassadors represent East and West as well as science and spirituality. In fact, anybody can be an ambassador for the Breakthrough Celebration. To be an ambassador means to know the attached Ahau days of the global meditations included in the Breakthrough Celebration, and who speaks to people about using them for creating a flow towards oneness by meditations, dikshas, prayers or whatever spiritual practices people feel are theirs. The Breakthrough Celebration does not belong to any one movement or organization, but to all seeking to be part of the process towards the state of oneness. In fact, this process will require the participation of a broad spectrum of individuals and movements and no one is able to tell at the present time who is going to make decisive contributions to it. To be an ambassador also means to refer people to the web page www.breakthroughcelebration.com and be someone looking for creating coherence and cross-fertilization between occasions, places and practices.
