Re: Adam and Eve's Sin

The MAYANS..something more to ponder

In the Mayan sacred book — the Popol Vuh — they speak of the World Tree, a magical tree that generates the four sacred directions moving out from the sacred center — Yaxkin — a system for humans that shapes and accesses the spiritual worlds. According to mythology, the World Tree was the first creation in the universe and then everything emanated (and continues to emanate) from it.



The Material and the Spiritual Worlds...again in the POPUL VUH

The Mayan Popul Vuh shows that by means of the imagination of the Creative God First Father, his son First Lord or One Hunapu, thrust upward the World Tree at the beginning of time to create a new world. Douglas Gillete commented in The Shaman’s Secret, “This wondrous Tree had its roots in the underworld. On the earth plane it shaped all time and space. Its topmost branches spread into the overworld where they organized the space-time of the heavens and set the star fields in motion.”


I find it interesting how the symbols..are so similier in that Christ in the book of Revelation ..Chapter 21 speaks of a New World...and thats one thing He represents..He makes all things NEW for those who BELIEVE.
