Yes, but also there have been many times in history where societies have had a spiritual revival that sweeps through a culture, country or continent. But that is not a dismissal of what you’re saying.
In my opinion, anytime somebody becomes enlightened, that *is* the big event you’re talking about.
I happen to be a Buddhist, but I think that Christians Muslims and other people reach enlightenment as well. At least some variety of something akin to what I call enlightenment.
some of the Christian mystics in the middle ages like Saint John of the Cross might be good examples of that or the Sufi poet Rumi from Afghanistan.
Many are going through spiritual awakening‘s now.
