Last Thursday, the PeaceJam Foundation held "2012 Revealed with Rigoberta Menchú Tum" at the Nalanda Campus of Naropa University in Boulder. Ms. Menchú brought two of her Mayan Spiritual Elders, Don Pedro Yae Noj and Doña Faviana Cochoy Alva, to give new insight on the Mayan prophecy of 2012, lead workshops, and to share their knowledge and spirituality with the more than 100 attendees.


The day long event included a ground blessing and welcoming by Grupo Tlaloc Danza Azteca and a sacred fire ceremony with Rigoberta, Don Pedro and Doña Faviana. Russell Means (actor, political activist, and early leader of the American Indian Movement) and
Nawang Khechog (grammy-nominated flautist) concluded the event with an amazingly powerful closing ceremony (pictured below).
