Mayanshaman

From the Dresden Codex and the translated Popul Vuh, we unfold the manuscript of
the Mayan cosmology. We find many familiar cosmic currents, including Gods of the
four primary elements, who each rule one “Sun,” at the end of which the species of
life that existed on earth is destroyed by that “Sun’s” element. This process, the Popul
Vuh records, has already occured three times. The first time it destroyed the animals,
and the second time it destroyed the “mud people.” The third time it destroyed “wood
monkeys,” and, at the end of the fourth age, it is said it will destroy us “corn people.”
