The Boundless Singing Links of Body and Spirit of the Mexican Mayans - Part I: The Dimensions of Timelessness and Eternity in Mayan Culture

The Mayan culture is perhaps one of the most interesting and mysterious civilisations to have existed on Earth, but one which has sunk into the darkness of oblivion. That is why the ancient Mayans continue to intrigue us today. Their ancient wisdom, shrouded in a mysterious symbolism, reveals an extraordinary grandeur of spirit. It still inspires us today, showing us the way into the broader consciousness of the new millennium. As a musician, scientist and sound therapist - a medium for the transfer of cosmic life energy, as well as a guide across different levels of consciousness, Mirit tries to open the curtains of the Mayan stage of life, primarily through the lens of sound and boundless consciousness.The ancient consciousness of the Mayans is increasingly becoming not only the consciousness of the new times, the new Earth, but also the consciousness of a better and more conscious life. Our values, which are constantly changing, are once again turning to the wisdom of the ancient times. The past gives meaning to and reinvigorates the future. A new human being is now being born - more joyful and spiritually less impoverished. With the boundless vastness of their consciousness, Mayan teachings put sound and music into a different perspective - to the altar of consecration and sacredness. Due to its comprehensiveness, the book about Mayan material and spiritual culture is published in two parts, although its content represents one indivisible whole and its chapters complement each other. In the first part, the author explains the genesis and the sacred book Popol Vuh from a spiritual perspective. She reveals the way of ascending the nine dimensions of the axis of consciousness (as the folk tradition would put it) - ascending through the material and non-material world and nine levels of wholeness and perfection. Mirit describes: ancient Mayan rituals, such as rain calling ceremony, the blessing on the top of the sacred tree during fire ceremonies, the symbolism of the sacred snake and the sacred tree, which is the axis of consciousness. She goes on to explore: the meaning of sacred places and temples and the magic of the Sun, the Earth, the planets and stars, the priestly ball game, the power of mental-energy imprints in the etheric body and body cells, the symbolism of blood, and, principally, the revolution of a centred consciousness, of wholeness, as well as the road to the Silent knowledge of the Universe. Climbing the pyramid is a symbol of ascending through spiritual levels, through the axis of consciousness. Such a journey to the top - to the Silence - is the goal of the ancient spiritual warriors and the purpose of their life's quest. The old rigid mindset must give way to the dignity of oneness with all levels of reality and with all existing forms, or beings. Thousands of years ago, the ancient Mayans consciously lived this philosophy of aligning the mind, soul and heart, which brings out a resonance with the sacred snake of the inaudible waves of energy and sound. Ancient Mayans persistently sought to rise above the limitations of time and space and attain the extraordinary abilities of galactic meta-human beings, of complete and awakened beings who have returned to their origin and to the Centre.
