books on 2012

I am going to get a book or two on this topic and post more once I have read them.  Does anyone have any suggestions for some good books.  I would like to look at more than one view point.

This has created much awarness for me. Feel free to connect and dialogue.

Re: books on 2012

I have also read 2012 by Daniel Pinchbeck.

I would recommend this book to anyone who is ready to go on quite the adventure through many different researchers theories and beliefs about this great date.
It's an extremely well written thesis on Daniels research, study, and experience about our 2012 evolution. He actually encounters a being called Queztacoatl, the Mayan serpent, and goes through a few incredible initiations through mysterious shamans in the Amazon, and the Bwiti tribe of Africa exploring new realms.
Daniel takes a significant piece of many many researchers ideas, and collaborates them into one giant story leaving you fascinated and enlightened.

Re: books on 2012

I've read a few, and the one I like the best so far is The Mayan Code by Barbara Hand Clow.

Re: books on 2012

Currently I am reading the Gaia Project.  I highly recommend everyone to read this book.  Not all views are the same as mine but it gives a totally different perspective of the Great Change of Earth which is expected to be completed by the year 2012.  The author says that there is actually mainly an intergallactic reasoning for this change.  I have to agree that there is probably more involvement from beings from other planets than we care to acknowledge.

Jeff,
I have has this book on my shelf for a few months. I am looking forward to reading it and discussing it with you.

My best, Josh

Re: books on 2012

I can highly recommend Carl Johann Calleman and his book The Mayan Calendar and the Transformation of Consciousness. This book shows that the Maya were tuned in to the patterns of the evolution of consciousness like no other people before or since. For me, this book resonates with the work of Ken Wilber in that the levels are organized in a holarchy that transends and includes the prior level.

Re: books on 2012

The most comprehensive and best researched book I've found on the subject is  “Beyond 2012” by Geoff Stray, a British researcher. It's a little hard to find in the U.S. but I talked with Geoff a few days ago and he says a U.S. publisher is on board to make the book more available in the U.S.

On the fictional side, I'd like to announce the publication of my novel, The Ezekiel Code.

http://www.ezekielcode.com

It's a metaphysical/mystery/adventure/thriller with a 2012 theme. Some of you may know Jay Weidner, the co-author of Mysteries of the Great Cross of Hendaye. About my novel Jay says,

“Entertaining and enlightening.”
“This is a course in high strangeness. If you want to know and understand the secret of nine, the Merkaba, alchemy, 2012 and a hundred other streams of knowledge this is the book for you. Gary Val Tenuta has pulled it all together into a fascinating and entertaining novel that challenges the reader to actually think.”�

Re: books on 2012

Pinchbeck is a really good read and a great entry point.  I would also recommend the book Earth: Pleiadian Keys to the Living Library by Barbara Marciniak - wow, you'll be in for one interesting ride. I'm thinking about tackling José Argüelles' Time and the Technosphere. He's  perhaps the most ardent about ditching the Gregorian calendar and switching to the 13-based system of the Maya, and has several other books on 2012 as well I believe. For more (channeled and beautiful) information on dimensional ascendence, see We, The Arcturians.

Thanks! I was looking for the books :)

Re: books on 2012

The Mystery of 2012 is a new book by Sounds True that's made up of a whole series of essays from quite a few different perspectives. They've got a website for it (with blog posts and excerpts) here. If you're looking for a collection of interpretations, I'd definitely recommend it.

Re: books on 2012

I saw a post mentioning Daniel Pinchbeck.  I would like whoever reads this know that www.realitysandwich.com and www.evolver.net are websites co-founded by Daniel as a resource and place to discuss such topics.  I hope you enjoy.
