Fractal Time by Gregg Braden (Hay House) CD/Book
In this fascinating work, Gregg Braden merges the modern discoveries of nature’s patterns  (fractals) with the ancient view of a cyclical universe.  The result is a powerful model of time – fractal time – and a realistic window into what we can expect for the mysterious year 2012 and beyond.
Applying fractal time to the history of the world and life, he proposes that everything from the war and peace between nations to the patterns of human relationships mirror the returning cycles of our past. As each cycle repeats, it carries a more powerful amplified version of itself.
Gregg suggests that if we can see time from this perspective the past reveals the great secret of our moment in history and what we can expect as we approach December 31 2012.

Virus of the Mind by Richard Brodie (Hay House)
Virus of the Mind is the first popular work devoted to the science of memetics, a controversial new field that transcends psychology, biology, anthropology and cognitive science. Memetics is the science of memes, the invisible but very real DNA of human society. The author carefully builds on the work of Dawkins, Hofstedter, Dennett and others who have become fascinated with memes and their potential impact on human society. Mind viruses have already infected governments, educational systems and inner cities, leading to some of the most pervasive and troublesome problems of society today: youth gangs, the welfare cycle, the deterioration of public schools and ever growing government bureaucracy. This thought provoking CD  will challenge you to re-evaluate your own thought systems and analyse how much your thoughts are in fact viruses of the mind.

He is head of the Mayan Council of elders in Guetemala, representing the 23 ethnic groups of the Maya. He is the Grand Elder of the Continental Council of Indigenous Elders and Priests. In 2008 Don Alejandro was named Ambassador for the Indigenous People of Guatemala. In this unique film he is interviewed by Dr Carl Calleman with questions pertaining specifically to the meaning of the “end date” of the Mayan calendar and the message for humankind. Don Alejandro gives recognition to the quality of Dr Calleman’s work, but speaks out strongly against foreigners who do not understand the true meaning of the calendar and who thus confuse humanity with threatening messages. Do come and hear Don Alejandro’s inspiring words for yourself, his message to “My brothers and sisters: we are all flowers of the earth . . .”
