Taanaashkaada is a Native American event that translates as "The Great Coming Together".   This philosophy says that the world is being destroyed in flames of ignorance, intolerance and conflict and we need to come together to douse the flames.  We need to connect spiritually to save the world.  In other words, this is a Native American End Times philosophy.  I like the term "Coming Together" rather than "End Times" because "End Times" has an negative connotation due to the word "End", but it really isn't a negative thing unless you are a total materialist.  It is a time of change.  A time when we can, if we choose, bring spiritual enlightenment to the world, but it won't be easy.  If we don't come together voluntarily, than we will be forced to do so by circumstances.  Circumstances like earth quakes, volcanoes and plagues that will kill millions.  The survivors will be forced to get together and forget their petty, tribal, materialistic differences.  Wouldn't it be better though if we can do it before we are forced to?
