WILL THERE REALLY BE A 2013?
My husband sat down with the family last night and told us we needed to be prepared because the world was ending soon, our young Vietnamese waitress said as she stood by our table seeking our response. Her eyes were clearly afraid of what we might say.
What would we say? We were just off the plane, back in Albuquerque from a profound Guatemalan journey, and had arrived at the restaurant seeking a moment of rest and recuperation before making the drive to our ranch.
Kira looked up at her concerned face and asked, Why does he feel that way?
Because he believes what he is seeing and reading on the Internet. He sits there hour after hour finding out everything he can about 2012 and the prophecies and predictions that are posted about that year. He also keeps telling me that the Mayan calendar is ending, and he believes our world is ending with it. We have two young children, and he believes there is no need to save money for college or even pay our debts. He really believes we are all going to die! She nearly wept as she shared her husband’s beliefs. Her underlying subtle energy was screaming to us, Please tell me this isn’t true.
We had been eating at this restaurant every week for years. Our lovely young waitress knew our names, knew our favorite dishes, and in all that time had not ever disclosed anything of her personal beliefs or family life. Nor had we.
Yet here she was on this snowy evening, with virtually no customers in the restaurant except us, instinctively sharing this recent family scenario while still going on about how her husband had called the entire family together. Aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, grandparents and cousins were all congregated so that he could share with them why they needed to prepare for the coming end of the world.
It was obvious we were not going to get the rest and recuperation we sought at tonight’s meal. Instead there was a greater call before us: the reminder that the energy of fear on our planet is rampant, powerful and seductive.
Kira continued, Have you considered that his beliefs are only one choice before us? Maybe his preoccupation with the end of the world can be a wake-up call to your entire family. There are many choices before us all, and the co-creative power of your thoughts will create what you would like to have in your life.
Well, I really feel that way, only he would not listen to me or anyone else. His convictions are making me doubt my own beliefs, and I really don’t know what to do, she replied. Her energy was now calming down as she allowed herself to start relaxing into a rapport with us just enough to be open to our sharing.
You might want to begin by intentionally researching the alternative energies around this time. It would also be a gift to let your husband expand his Web search to include the positive predictions and the choices of our future, rather than fixate on the negative. We just arrived home from Guatemala, and we can offer to you that the Maya have no fear of the calendar ending. None. Outsiders who have sought to interpret their calendar have brought forth great fear without a basis in the honest facts. Breathe. Do your best to avoid being preoccupied with fear. You do have a choice here, and your husband is looking at only one option. Help him discover that there are others, Kira assured her.
Sri Ram Kaa smiled and offered, There are many who believe our world is ending, and there are many who also believe we are entering a golden age. The one thing we can all agree upon is that we are at a time of great shift. What do you really want for your children? That is where you may want to begin focusing, and then bring your husband back into that loving space with you. What you will discover, and be happy to know, is that there is much more waiting for you than just the fear and hype of the end of the world. And, you have to want to find it.
I’m really glad I shared this with you. I’ll do that. I really don’t believe my children were born only to die so young and so soon. Okay, let me get your soup! She smiled, let out a sigh of relief and left our table.
Gazing at each other, we smiled knowingly. This was yet another of many recent encounters that all had a similar energy. The energy of a well-intended individual seeking reassurance from an outside source about a topic they were to afraid to investigate fully. We noticed that all these interactions held in common the fact that people do not trust themselves enough to look at their fears head-on.
Without a doubt, it is the overwhelming preoccupation with fear that has brought us all to this very special moment in our collective history—the moment where we must look, we must investigate and, ultimately, we must trust ourselves.
The Maya have no fear of the calendar ending…none.
Throughout the ages, human communities have been guided by the wise elders of their time. While these teachings are often distorted by the beliefs of followers who repeat the information of the elders, kernels of truth remain. One gift that the indigenous elders model for us all is their ability to remain detached from the turbulence of the outer world with its fads and fashions. They listen to their inner guidance and trust it implicitly.
Many prophecies have been shared around the 2012 conversation. Offerings from the Maya, the Hopi, the Zulu, the Dogon, the Cherokee, the Hindu and others all point to a common theme: a transition into a new cycle is occurring right now, and another cycle will begin again in 2012.
The culmination of one cycle can stimulate a sense of loss. During the culmination we tend to forget that there is a sense of a void, and that with the beginning of any new cycle comes an expansive, lifting energy. Thus we are called to be mindful of where we place our attention.
The energy of the third, fourth and fifth dimensions is already here, readily available to the consciousness of all who seek its connection. This can stimulate chaos, for as people anchor their energy and orientation at different frequencies, they embrace the world differently. It is important that the opportunity for energetic expansion be made conscious.
We are in a time unlike any other. Like the wise elders, to walk in peace during such transitions we must widen our gateway to inner communion. At the time of culmination of one way of being, the opportunity for renewal awaits as we engage the beginning of a new cycle. We are free to set in motion a new way of being or to simply repeat the old paradigms and set a repetition in motion.
Now more than ever, we are called to trust our divine nature and experience true clarity. The call is before you to be clear about your choices. Be congruent in your actions and stay focused on the divine in everything you behold. These steps will train your consciousness to align with the deepest levels of truth and the greatest opportunities ahead. This is the path of joy, the other path before us all. The path of joy does not lead toward death or destruction.
Clearly, by recognizing these two paths—joy or fear—we find ourselves at a juncture in the way we express ourselves and experience our lives on this wondrous planet. Are you ready to remember who you are, who you really are? At the foundation of all the fear and hype around 2012, the reality is that you are being called to a new sense of responsibility. It is time to ascend to your authentic self.
The consistent messages from the archangelic realms, as well as Maya mystics, tell us that now is the time for sacred reunification on every level of our being. Between north and south, eagle and condor, man and woman, ego and spirit. This very moment is the time of great opportunity in which everyone is offered a chance to transcend the limited egoic mind and reunite with the soul at the heart of creation.
Our own sacred reunion occurred seven years ago. While on a hike in the Sedona desert just days after meeting Sri in person for the first time, Kira dropped to the ground. Suddenly, Sri found himself dialoging with a being—an archangel⁴—through Kira’s body. "Congratulations, you have found each other again," the angel said. It proceeded to detail our mission together should we choose to move forward with it: to deliver nine books to humanity, sharing the path of Self-Ascension at a time when many who had forgotten who they were will be ready to reawaken.
Sri was in shock. He looked deeply into Kira’s eyes, radiating brilliant light, and felt his heart melt. He began to cry as this angelic energy spoke through her body. When the angel left, Kira looked at Sri, saw his tears, and said, What happened? I feel so filled with love and beauty! From that moment on we have been charged with the gift of assisting humanity—helping all to remember who you are. And as the years have been moving rapidly toward the next cycle of the ages, the number of awakened beings on the planet is escalating…rapidly.
For eons, humanity has been depending upon the intellect to meet our challenges. We analyze, scrutinize, mechanize. We do our best to complicate just about everything. We depend upon technology for a sense of power and peace. But you simply will not be able to think your way through the coming years and especially the energy of 2012 and beyond.
You are being called to a new life. It is a life that is far beyond any form of being mentalized, yet that paradigm is doing its best to assure you of that exact scenario.
You can seek out many writings on 2012. Suddenly, it is popular to write something, anything about this topic and enter the stream of mentalization around its energy. Traditional types of writings provide you with proposed solutions, answers, pictures, predictions; yet it is vital to recognize that such approaches, seeking someone else’s ideas from the outer world, will not carry you to your highest potential.
Perhaps your purpose is to walk within a place of trust on the earth—to claim yourself and your inner wisdom—rather than give up your power to someone who has perceived authority or credentials. We only need credentials for constructing machines within the mandates of our societal structures. Your highest degree, your best credential, is your life. You are a living, active and precious part of the amazing organism that is humanity.
The blessing of the speeding up of time, the way we are navigating the planet, the way we co-create is that everything is designed to assist you to remember the truth of who you are while you still have a body. This is the essence of Self-Ascension, and the coming years will open for you a powerful momentum to fully empower this gift.
This is the powerful moment; the rare and glorious opportunity for extraordinary spiritual expansion.
Many still feel that the change in the air and the future of our world is out of their hands. The truth is, we are all still writing the ultimate book on 2012—and beyond—together. Every one of us is a co-author of that book, and collectively we will be finishing and editing that manuscript right up until that moment of divine convergence.

A few short years after we were reunited in the desert, we were guided to Guatemala to forge deep and personal partnerships with the Mayan elders of the highlands.⁵ One of the many things we delight in is that when we visit with the indigenous people, their simple wisdom evokes deep spiritual reflection.
We are at the moment in time where each one of us gets to have clear vision again if we choose to do so. When you start fully paying attention to everything that the universe is conspiring to help you with, you stop thinking and you start accepting.
2010 is the year of divine acceptance, the rare opportunity to be at the beginning of the larger release of fear and doubt. This energy is especially powerful, as witnessed by the birthing of 2010 with a rare blue moon, which occurred on January 30, 2009, in conjunction with a partial lunar eclipse. This energy opened a multi-dimensional portal for those who sought to embrace it. This portal offered a great gift of clarity through January 15, 2010, when it was anchored by the new moon’s full solar eclipse—powerful energy for all to support the expansion.
It is the beginning of remembering who you are, encircling yourself and others in the presence of the true love that transcends all emotions and belief systems. It is the natural return to right action through living right action.
Before you now are the very real, focused energies of fear, ancient prophecies of doom, financial uncertainty and global destabilization. Indeed, there is a darker vision, a cloud that seeks to claim your clarity if you choose to embrace it. This cloud has great strength and momentum on its side. After all, it has been well-fed through the media, mass consciousness, belief systems and, of course, our own fear.
When you are able to go beyond preoccupation, it can be as simple as sincerely declaring, Enough. Thus you bring forward the greater gift that is yours to unveil—the gift of your authentic clarity. At this moment of overstimulation on all levels of our existence, it is clarity that will gift you with the freedom to clearly see the choices and the energies around you.
• What is my highest expression in the world?
And any other question you may wish to bring forward.
It all unfolds when you claim your clarity, which in essence is the empowerment of self-trust, the simple yet profound understanding that the foundation of clarity is trust. Let’s look at the word, clarity , and expand it so that we can fully embrace this energy of trust. Perhaps you can relax into feeling the mere word clarity as a mantra. Just allow yourself to experience the energies that it offers through the greater expansion.
the infinite and trust myself.
Let’s take a moment and discover this greater energy through the gift of clarity.
C—to Claim The essence of true clarity is the firm foundation established as you claim the gift of yourself and experience it through the simple, yet sometimes difficult, recognition that you are enough. Recognize lovingly that this world experience is a gift for you to unwrap regardless of the outside issues that may confront you on a day-to-day basis. You woke up today! So it is a good day. Can you begin by claiming that as true for you? This is the essence of claiming, which many refer to as I AM. Claim yourself.
L—Love / Light Our world experience is often filled with emotionality and societal expectations around the energy of love. Yet deep within all beings is an eternal essence of love also known as light. From the scientific perspective, we know that light expands. Then, as love/light, we can know that we are expanding. As part of this expansion, we seek out new expressions and a multitude of life experiences. These are not meant to affect our love but to enhance it. If you were to bring yourself to 10,000 feet above your life and gaze at all your experiences, you would find your self, your essence, the love/light that is expressing itself through your life.
