What the Heck is a Hunab-Ku?!

The Ancient Mayans had a mysterious and fascinating culture about them. Their art, spirituality, and designs are especially interesting, and we find many parallells in teachings to other mystic traditions the world over.
This cosmic civilization has so much to teach us, and one of their many lessons is that of the Hunab Ku, a curious glyph which appears to be very similar to a yin-yang. In this video, let us explore it's symbolism, and see what wisdom we might glean from it.

Being Guatemalan I enjoyed your explanation about Hunab Ku. I've followed the Mayan and read the Popol Wuj several times, and I've explained to people who wanted the symbol as a tattoo that it wasn't a Mayan symbol. I'll share your video.

[@beezradiox]

Right!

[@kosmow2013]

The Maya used 20 for their base count which suggests they were using fingers and toes to count with. That leads to a full body integration and isn't as easy to do as one would think. Try bending the toes one at a time.

[@blackace8546]

As someone who is from the maya people I have one question…why didn’t you mention the Popol Vuh? It tells the maya creation story, why we play an ancient ball game, why we hang up corn, what the underworld is like. What the Gods of the underworld are. What God created humans, what came before humans. You can debate and argue back and forth about what they meant by this, but to leave it out entirely leaves out part of the maya beliefs.

[@monitomaya]

I see your point. But i think the video was to clarify that Hunab-Ku symbol was not Mayan (or K'iche'). There was no need to get into the beautiful book.

[@Ramzblood]

​@@monitomayathe book would offer intellectual origin. At this point it most definitely feels a rewrite of a people's history, especially if you don't refer to their actual recorded texts. It would be like interpreting Indian without the Vedas Or Egyptian deity origins without referring to ancient hieroglyph or the book of the dead.

[@kuzkateco]

@@SpiritverseOfficial hint: the OLMECA wasn’t their actual name. It’s a Nahuatl name given to them (likely by the Mexica [meh-she-KA, not “Mexic-a” like modern day English pronunciation of Mexico] to refer to an ancient ancestor group who’s name had been lost. OL-MECA breaks down etymologically as, “OLLIN + MECATL. Ollin being similar to movement, and mecatl which means rope. In this instance, the rope is used to refer to lineage. Thus, they (we) were named the people of movement lineage. The “movement” has been argued to be something like earthquakes. None of these words just are. They all mean something. Even ATLANTIC is argued by some to be Nahuatl… but I digress. Let me know if you’d like more information! Happy hunting!

As a global indigenous who is a Temple People (Aztec, Maya, Inca) the Spirits and my understanding want me to share with you this - it means Great Spirit because us natives were global and were spread by Fire and Chaos all over the lands for safety and keeping knowledge. As I am also Anishinaabe among other native bloodlines - we pray to the Kitche-Manitou - the “Great Spirit”. It is the Divine Universal force/energy of Light and Dark, Chaos, and Creation, Masculine & Feminine. Aho! 🙏🏽🌹💕✨

There is a interplay between here and there. Material and subtle. The underworld. This is not only extremely important in world religions until Abrahamics got big. The Aztec, Maya, most Americans, were obsessed with the underworld. Not just religiously, like totally obsessed. Saw a jaguar eat someone? That's the underworld poking into the material. The birth of a new life? That's the underworld interacting with this world. You don't get to be instilled with this framework and not filter the world through it.... Especially if you live in nature

If the symbol is Aztec why wouldn't you do a deep dive on the Aztecs!? The Aztecs were the ones who the colonizers brutalized, the Mayans were pretty much only in Guatemala/Cancun and more south (they were around Tikal), whereas the Aztecs found Teotihuacan (biggest pyramid in North America) as an empty complex, who built it, they don't know. Cortez (one of the colonizers) used the tribes around the Aztec empire to fight them and bring them down. Like you said the Mayans were a thriving civilization hundreds of years prior to the European colonizers arrival. I'd suggest Patch try this video again from the Aztec p.o.v. :)

I'm sorry to say, you presented very little actual information on Mayan knowledge, first it's not a religion, HunabKu is not a God. It's more a study of time and the HunabKu symbol represents the understanding of time as a dimension, the cycles of day and night winter and summer etc. All of it is unified and part of one which is a spiral in the middle. You should not view it as a deistic religion, please study the Tzol'kin it's way deeper than you imagine. Thanks for the effort.
