Prior to receiving a message of peace these Nations were all at war with one another. This wartime era is described as blood flowing freely upon the earth. During this hardship a Peacemaker was sent with a message of Gayenshragowa: The Great and Everlasting Love\\/the Great Law of Peace. The Great Law is a complex philosophy that establishes a set of “instructions” of how to live life as a good human being. The focus of this keynote will discuss the primary principle of the Great Law which is Ganikwiyoh-Good Mindedness and will provide insights into how it interconnects all of the critical values and principles of the Gayenshragowa. We will examine how these teachings helped construct Haudenosaunee citizenship which forms the foundation of Haudenosaunee Confederacy, how it informed diplomacy and treaty making prior to settlement and how it informed early Crown relations. Lastly, we will discuss how it inform us to live a peaceful, harmonious existence for the “Faces Yet to Come.”  \\n \\nBio: Dr. Darren Thomas is Bear Clan and a member of the Seneca Nation who resides at the Grand River Territory of the Haudenosaunee. Darren is an Associate Vice-President of Indigenous Initiatives and an Associate Professor in the Indigenous Studies Program at Wilfrid Laurier University.

Title: Gayenshragowa-The Everlasting Love
 
Abstract: The Hodinosoni/Haudenosaunee/Six Nations/Long House Builders are a confederacy of several Nations that came together under the principles of Peace, Power, and Righteousness. Prior to receiving a message of peace these Nations were all at war with one another. This wartime era is described as blood flowing freely upon the earth. During this hardship a Peacemaker was sent with a message of Gayenshragowa: The Great and Everlasting Love/the Great Law of Peace. The Great Law is a complex philosophy that establishes a set of “instructions” of how to live life as a good human being. The focus of this keynote will discuss the primary principle of the Great Law which is Ganikwiyoh-Good Mindedness and will provide insights into how it interconnects all of the critical values and principles of the Gayenshragowa. We will examine how these teachings helped construct Haudenosaunee citizenship which forms the foundation of Haudenosaunee Confederacy, how it informed diplomacy and treaty making prior to settlement and how it informed early Crown relations.
