2012: THE TIPPING POINT The Prophets Conference Cancun Conference 22-24 JANUARY 2010 Conference and Mayan Sacred Temple Pilgrimage 22-29 JANUARY 2010 The End of the World As We Have Known It! "For millennia, mankind had wandered in the darkness…but now, as had been prophesied, there was a change coming. After hurtling blindly through history, mankind has reached a crossroads. This moment had been predicted long ago, prophesied by the ancient texts, by the primeval calendars, and even by the stars themselves. The date was specific, its arrival imminent. It would be preceded by a brilliant explosion of knowledge…a flash of clarity to illuminate the darkness and give mankind a final chance to veer away from the abyss and take the path of wisdom." —Dan Brown, The Lost Symbol 2012 Tipping Point Information: www.greatmystery.org/events/cancun2012.html (Special Note: You may register for the conference and tour package or for the conference only.

Instead of predicting a physical destruction of the material world, the Mayan prophecy might refer to death and rebirth and a mass inner transformation of humanity. BRINGING TOGETHER Jacque Fresco and Roxanne Meadows of the Venus Project, along with Stanislav Grof, Jose Arguelles, Graham Hancock, John Major Jenkins, Daniel Pinchbeck, and Miguel Angel Vergara, this gathering promises to be the major groundbreaking event leading up to the 2012 planetary cyclical change, a time foretold by indigenous peoples throughout the world. Following the conference there will be a special pilgrimage to the Mayan Sacred Temples of Chichen Itza, Coba, Ek Balam, and Muyil. AS WE MOVE INTO a new planetary cycle beyond the tipping point of 2012, we will find creative possibilities for harmony and resolution residing in the work of people such as Jacque Fresco and Roxanne Meadows. Our possibility field is opening to novel manifestations coming from many sources as we personally and collectively allow our dysfunctional fixations of thought and belief to finally get out of the way. What can I say about Jacque Fresco? My poor words can do no justice to the life of a man whose elegant vision and humble persona stand as a living embarrassment, a white hot fire of shame in evidence against the lives of the reavers and reprobates of this dishonored age. Here is a man of ninety two, whose regenerated innocence and love for humanity gives him the aspect of a man half his age; would that I, or anyone, had one small fragment of his talent and spiritual force. —Smoking Mirrors  Jacque Fresco at the Zeitgeist conference, NYC FUTURE BY DESIGN: BEYOND MONEY POLITICS & WAR by JACQUE FRESCO and ROXANNE MEADOWS THIS PRESENTATION IN CANCUN is a vision not of what the future will be but what it can be if we apply what we already know in order to achieve a sustainable new world civilization. It calls for a straightforward redesign of our culture in which the age-old inadequacies of war, poverty, hunger, debt and unnecessary human suffering are viewed not only as avoidable, but as totally unacceptable. Anything less will result in a continuation of the same catalog of problems inherent in today's world. TODAY MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE what is needed is a higher sense of ethical standards and the enactment of international laws to assure a sustainable global society. Even if the most ethical people in the world were elected to political office, without sufficient resources we would still have many of the same problems we have today. When a few nations control most of the world's resources and the bottom line is profit the same cycle of events will prevail. If we really wish to put an end to our ongoing international and social problems we must eventually declare Earth and all of its resources as the common heritage of all the world's people. Earth is abundant with plentiful resources. Our practice of rationing resources through monetary control is no longer relevant and counter-productive to our survival. Today we have access to highly advanced technologies.. But our social and economic system has not kept up with our technological capabilities that could easily create a world of abundance free of servitude and debt for all. This could be accomplished with the infusion of a global, resource-based civilization. Simply stated, a resource-based economy utilizes existing resources rather than money, and provides an equitable method of distribution in the most humane and efficient manner for all the world's people. It is a system in which all goods and services are available without the use of money, credit, barter or any other form of debt or servitude. The aim of this new social design is to encourage a new incentive system, one that is no longer directed toward the shallow and self-centered goals of wealth, property, and power. These new incentives would encourage people toward self-fulfillment and creativity both materially and spiritually. How do we get from here to there? No government has ever advocated social change. The established order tends to perpetuate itself. Unfortunately it may take an economic breakdown and people becoming disillusioned with their leaders to have them seek an alternative social direction. THE VENUS PROJECT is an organization that proposes a feasible plan of action for social change, one that works towards a peaceful and sustainable global civilization. It outlines an alternative to strive toward where human rights are no longer paper proclamations but a way of life. Jacque Fresco and Roxanne Meadows
