It's exactly as the Mayan told us. The world did end, and now we're into a slightly different simulation. This reality started in 2012, everything you remember before that were just planted memories.

How is can that be true if I remember experiencing them, not as memories but as I lived them, in a chronology. I guess you could just say 'that's how it works' but you are not being fair with that kind of response. If you were talking about the Hindu term 'maya' you might be onto something:

>maya, (Sanskrit: “magic” or “illusion”) a fundamental concept in Hindu philosophy, notably in the Advaita (Nondualist) school of Vedanta. Maya originally denoted the magic power with which a god can make human beings believe in what turns out to be an illusion.

Everything in our lives can ultimately be thought of some kind of maya, an illusion placed in front of the ineffable truth of reality, almost to shield us from our spirits being burned up alive by the awesome truth of God and Reality.
