The calendar developed and used by the ancient Maya has an end date. On the Gregorian calendar, it's December 21, 2012.
In 2012 the Maya calendar starts over. As a result you can start by using the calendar Montezuma used. Of course, you may choose to use the standard calendar instead of following the Maya calendar.
The Maya did not base their calendar on the birth of Christ. The Maya based their calendar on the phases of the moon and venus and the position of the sun. The year 2012 is simply our equivalent to the same time on the Mayan calendar.
There is NO DOOMSDAY 2012. The Maya Calendar runs till then, but that is just the calendar not continuing. It does not mean time will stop, or that the Earth will stop.
Probably not because Its only Maya calendar that ends on December 21st 2012 but no doomsday were indicated on it.
Yes, this is true. The exact date is 12/21/2012 around 11:11 pm.

During the course of the month, the accuracy of the calendar has helped the Maya with planting and harvesting. These sacred harvesting cycles represent the purpose of the ceremony. This purpose relates to the creation and destruction of the world, and having a stable relationship with the gods.
No one knows what will happen. The only way to find out is to wait.

The Maya calendar system is complex and consists of multiple cycles. To convert today's date to the Maya calendar, one would need specific information such as the Long Count date and the current Bak'tun, k'atun, tun, winal, and k'in cycles. Without this information, it is not possible to determine today's date in the Maya calendar.
