Thank you for this. I am looking to listen to what is authentic and not appropriated after some recent travel. Looking forward to watching more of your content.🙏
Hi Kerin, I hope you had a good time during your travel. Unfortunately the wide spread information is mostly distorted stuff. But diving into the maya culture is a road of beautiful discoveries and a deep and sincere way of looking at life:)
I hope you enjoy our content, and feel free to reach us anytime if you have a question:)
good stuff. please keep sharing, making videos. preserving spoken mayan language. i am learning mayan glyphs, this writing system is cute & interesting to look at. at the same time i also study the japanese language, and there seem to be some parallels regarding mayan and japanese language syntax.
most important thing i see here, is the mayan knowledge, presented by the (living) mayans themself.
thx for sharing, have fun, aum, s love nia (europe)
Thanks Buddy! Indeed their writing system is something extraordinary. Have you read the books from Michael Coe?
@@MayaDayKeeper not really, i downloaded freely available e-books (pdf), and save few webpages on my disk, for a start, that will do; i did found mark van stone youtube video, where he writes/draws some mayan glyphs, he makes it look so simple, lol. and i make my own syllabary (glyph dictionary), on the go, watching (your's) yt videos. have fun, aum
Love hearing about my ancestors 💯🍃
Hi! I'm glad you enjoyed the video:) I'm trying my best to make this channel a space to honor the beautiful knowledge your ancestors left with authenticity. Thank you for subscribing :)
Agora eu sei porque achei teu canal. Sonhei com sua apresentação há umas semanas, depois de voltar de Tikal, e hoje vi a imagem do sonho. Gratidão por isso! Salve o Povo Maya!
Que bom que encontrou:)
Really glad that I found your channel! ~ I'm on my 5th video so far, and each one has been so informative as well as presented with beautiful energy. Thank you for sharing this knowledge and perspective in its authentic self, your work is greatly appreciated. 🤓✌
Thanks a million for the support! We are going to be back posting videos very soon and start releasing other materials about the Maya culture:)
@@MayaDayKeeper Great to Hear! Going to purchase this book and really look forward to sharing the work.
Awesome!! I hope you enjoy it reading it:)
Feel free to reach Apab'yan Tew as well about anything you would like to ask him directly
Thank you much appreciated 🤗
Wonderful:)
Gracias! I'm looking to reconnect with my culture, and your right, a lot of information is what outsiders think of us. I can't say much since i live up north since my family immgrated but i want to reconnect with what my family lost.
Hey Isaac! Thanks for your comment. I'm glad the effort I'm making with this channel can help you and your family to reconnect with knowledge of your ancestors:)
We are working on more ways to integrate and make more knowledge acessable in this digital era.
Stay tuned:)
Gracias !
Thank you for these videos. After beginning my journey in learning about my ancestors I found out just how much false information is out there. I just got back from a trip visiting Guatemala. I wanted to to where I can find a true depiction of the mayan Cholq'ij calender?
Thanks for the feedback Emil, I'm gladly you are enjoying the videos. Soon I will return posting videos.
I've got some good books from anthropologists who lived for a long time in the k'iche communities, like Dennis and Barbara Tedlock. I'm happy to share with you if you want, you can DM me on Instagram (@ferronato111).
I'm working with Apab'yan and the UMK (universidad Maya Katchiquel) and we just started the 2nd year. There Students and I are learning kiche, the epistemology of the calendar and philosophy.
From my experience working with indigenous people and travelling to the communities, I can attest that the information that has been provided there is very altruistic with "indigenous value", far away from new age stuff.
From my experience researching to learn about the calendar, unfortunately the mainstream information is all westernised from people who likely never been to the wild to understand nature, and just adapt things from folkloric stuff.
That's why I think it's important to learn from people who at least know k'iche or any mayan language.
To get into the realm of the true depiction of the Calendar, it's necessary to dive deep into the culture or even lineage of who's teaching you. Cause the use or interpretation, linguistic expressions, metaphor may change a bit according the place, lineage the aqj'ij is from.
Soon I'm gonna be launching my website with the information of the use of the Calendar from Apab'yan lineage, from Nahuala. And in there I'm gonna open a community to start facilitating bringing these studies to the table with more people.
Mayank civilisation.VS Tamil civilisation.. Connected.. Are you carry on carry on carry on
I don't know much about Tamil.... but wouldn't be surprised to see similarities though
Hola. Gracias por compartir.
¿Dónde puedo conseguir el libro en Mérida, Yucatán? De preferencia la versión impresa.
Hola Benjamin, disculpa el retraso en responder. Hay un link en la descripción del vídeo que lleva a la página donde se puede comprar la versión impresa.
Hi
I wanna know. Why on the Haab Calender there are two diffrent kind of glyph/symbol for Pax(jaguar)
Does there exist a original symbol for Pax from the Haab any where? Thank u
All glyphs have many variations in shape. As they are an expression of the spoken languages, sometimes these differences you see are expressing 2 or more words together, diferents ways to express the same thing in a sentence, dates compressed, etc... but they can change according to different mayan languages.
As Glyphs are more the Yacatec stuff, I think the books of Michael D. Coe, can provide you better explanations of what you are looking for.
Thank you for the video! For the last 3 weeks or so I’ve been seeing 13 and 17 EVERYWHERE. Following my intuition led me to the Mayan calendar and I’m just not sure how these numbers tie in but it feels like it’s related to me. Do these numbers mean anything in the Mayan culture? I know very little but researching. Thank you again ❤️🙏🏼🌎✌️
Hello! I'm happy you enjoyed the video. :)
These numbers doesn't have any meangingfull association like this in the Maya culture.
What is more important than numbers patterns or any symbol the brains starts looking for, is what you meet at the end, the information or post you decide to pay attention or listen that resonate with something within you.
That's was what led to go deeper into the Maya knowledge. Unfortunately, there aren't many reliable sources on the internet, that's I decided to create a channel to offer information straight from their people.
If you have any question or curiosity, feel free to ask:)
Maya Calendar Tzolk'in / Cholq'ij thank you! I’ll continue to watch the videos. ❤️🙏🏼🌎✌️
Do you happen to have a list of books that you recommend? 💜
Yes I do! In the video description you can find a link to our discord server. I keep everything organized there for easy access. Once you join, you will see a channel called "Books to Learn" inside of the MAYA KNOWLEDGE category. In the server you can also find documentaries, maya info, movies, etc...
@@MayaDayKeeper You... Are... Amazing 💜💜 I cannot express how happy I am to find recent, relevant and in the moment lessons of the Maya. I've been reading books and such myself, but it's hard to know what's accurate and what isn't. I at least try to do my research on the authors. Finding this has made my day. Thank you 🥰
@@veemaxine5257 I'm happy to help:) I've been on this road of researching the Maya Culture and the calendar for quite some time, and I
know how hard is to find reliable information.
So I'm using what I'm learning with my mayan teachers to highlight the good and real information available out there to facilitate the other to learn, and not waste as much time as me digesting crap 😪
Because after all, to really understand the calendar is necessary to dive into the understanding of the culture and at least a bit of language. It's an effort, but a beautiful ride :)
Feel free to reach me in discord if want to ask anything :)
Hello. What do you think about the grid form of the calendar? 13 rows of 20 signs. I understand that this form of the calendar is a modern creation but I wonder if you give it any legitimacy? I know someone who has applied some syncretism to the grid form of the calendar. They put the english alphabet into it forwards and then backwards and it spells the word "keys" 20 times. Do you think this is important or significant or is it just modern serendipitous syncretism? Many thanks
Hello!! This is irrelevant actually. The way we arrange it doesn't matter if the order of the days is correct.
I know the new age calendar of arguelles displays this way and mark days to paint a symbol of a DNA. But that's bot maya, and any painting can be done as an artistic expression. But doesn't have any meaning. Same with these keys. English language and western thinking has nothing to do with the maya calendar. It there's a meaning, it might only serve for the one who created this. Maybe a sign for him to become a keysmith or something lol.. jokes aside... there's nothing useful in this things.
Learning the maya calendar is a way to observe life, nature and our interactions in a different way to bring acceptance about us and follow our path with more ease :)
@@MayaDayKeeper thank you for taking the time to reply. I agree with you and it seems unlikely that the calendar, which was created before English was even spoken, would have the word "keys" encoded in it. I have told my friend this but he is obsessed with it. Haha. Thanks again
Exactly!
The knowledge of the calendar can lead to obsession. But the real key to understand it is to dive in to the culture to understand how they think and what they intended when refer to the nawals (days of the calendar). Feel free to ask any time. I'm happy to help:)
on what days, or how often should I give blood to the Earth?
Blood offerings is not like that. There many different ceremonies, each one with different purposes. And the days depend on certain nawals of the person as well
