A short documentary on the Mayan Calendar and its real significance to humankind today. It debunks the 'end of the world' theories surrounding 2012 while shedding light on the Maya's original intentions when the calendar was created.

Hear from Taino indigenous spiritual teacher, Miguel Sague, Maya researcher and author, John Major Jenkins, and Quiche Maya calendar teacher, Antonio Aj Ik. Together, over 70 years of Mayan research and experience are represented in this film.

The goal of The Mayan Truth is simply to bring the truth and essence of the Mayan calendar to the mainstream population. The hope is that people will open their minds and consciousness to the messages the Maya can teach us, today, in 2012, and beyond.
