چندین ساله که میگن امروز یعنی 21 دسامبر 2012 پایان دوران و دنیاست :) و خب برای کسایی که رسانهها رو در دنیای امروز رصد میکنن بدیهیه که این بازیها هدفمند و به غرض خاصی تدوین میشه. سوای سودها و کلاشیها که این وسط به بهانههایی این چنین نصیب برخی میشه، مدیریت جامع دنیای نوین هم یقینا سود و منفعت خودش رو در این بازیها لحاظ میکنه.
حالا بگذارین از کنار این حادثه ما هم با هم چیزی ببینیم. گویا این پیشگویی یکی از منابع خودش رو در تقویم سنتی مایاها جستجو میکنه. تقویمهای باستان گاهی اونقدر برای ما ناشناخته هستند که هر تصویر و نماد و نشان و خطی رو در اونها به عنوان پیامی ناشناخته قلمداد می کنیم. و شاید هم واقعا چنین باشه
اما تقویمهای دنیای جدید این طور نیستند و غالبا تنها نشاندهندهی روز و ماه و سال و مناسبت ها هستند. در سالهای اخیر هم اگرچه در حاشیه تقویمها با محتواهایی ادبی حکمی و علمی روبهرو هستیم اما باز هم خود تقویم حرفی بیشاز سال و ماه و روز برای آدم نداره.
برای همینه که تقویمهای این پست لازمه دیده بشن. تقویم هایی که در کنار همون سال و ماه و روز حرفی و نکتهای و گاهی حتی تذکری عمیق به گذر عمر دارند. و دارای پیامهای نهفته ای هستند که از این منظر با تقویمهای باستان همانندی دارند
