MCI COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
Here are some examples of courses taught at the Maya Cosmic Institute:
Maya Cosmovisión I
This course is the study and understanding of the ancient Maya’s cosmic vision of the universe. During the week you will go deeply into the study of OX-LAHUN-TIKU (the 13 heavens) and the symbolism of BOLONTIKU (the 9 dimensions of the earth) known as XIBALBA.
You will learn about the five directions of the Maya cosmos, their lords (BAKABES), their colors, their offerings, their orientation, and the sacred elements of each one of these directions.
You will be taught and get an opportunity to practice the 13 Maya Cosmic Salutations to the Universe and the way to call the Heart of the Sky and the Heart of the Earth, to unite the great heart of the Sun in the sky with Mother Nature.
Atlantis – Maya Connection
The ancient cosmic cities of Atlantis are still to be found in the land of the Mayab. The knowledge of Atlantis is found in the Maya temples and pyramids and in the sacred Maya books (codices) where the hieroglyphs tell us of Atlantis, “The City of the Transparent Crystals”. Itzamna, “The Dew of the Sky”, came to the Mayab from Atlantis bringing its great knowledge with him and leaving it in the Maya pyramids as a great gift for humankind; a gift of spiritual rebirth.
Throughout the week-long course you will learn to identify the various signs of Atlantis in the Maya sites and learn how to interpret them to receive the lessons waiting for you there. Through meditations and practices you can then call up your personal memories of Atlantis.
Maya Calendars
The dimensions of time and space, the movement of our solar system, the movements of the planets Venus, Mercury, Jupiter, the eclipses of the sun and the moon, the movement of the comets or “smoking stars” were all written by the Maya in their calendars using the number, measure, and observation of the heavenly bodies then capturing and incorporating all this great knowledge into their three best known calendars; the TZOLKIN (260 day lunar calendar), the HAAB (365 solar calendar), and the LONG COUNT (Katunes and Batktunes calendar).
To understand this marvelous wisdom and its meaning is one of the main purposes of this week-long course.
Sacred Rituals and Ceremonies of the Ancient Maya
“To create a union between the Maya deities and man” using the teachings that join man with the Cosmos and Nature. To meet with the Spirits of Light that are living in each and every manifestation of life was the essence of the sacred teachings left by the Maya in all of their rituals and ceremonies.
Spend the week learning about sacred rituals and ceremonies of the ancient Maya. Learn to understand the meaning and purpose behind these practices and then participate in some of these ceremonies that are still performed today.
