Dear Subhash, Thank you very much for your kind congratulations and for your very relevant article, which I will publish on our website in the coming weeks on your personal page. I like to highlight some of your ideas are very important for understanding the new era of Harmonious Enlightenment as a transition from total ignorance in harmony, on which was throve whole story of wars, dictatorships and tyrannies, including modern, soft, but not less cruel, financial tyranny. You develop this idea: “Enlightenment is a transition from ignorance to knowledge, from one level of knowledge to another, essentially new level. Most of us are competent in the alphabet and language of industrialism. We know the core concepts of industrial thinking, which are identical with disharmony. The language of industrial civilization teaches us to achieve peace from war.” You see the deep connection of this idea with the Indian philosophy: “In Indian philosophy 'Vasudheva Kutumbkam' - The world is one family - One God, One Harmony & One world Family to create the New Era of Harmonious Enlightenment through Harmonious Education.” You are considering a change of the centuries as a change of revolutions, defining the 21st century as the century of Harmonious Spiritual/Educational Revolution: “The 19th Century was known for industrial revolution & the last 20th century was full of the revolutionary known for Information revolution which had seen the growth of the information technology globally; and 21st century is marked as' Spiritual revolution 'in' Sangam Yuga (Age of confluence). The 21st century is termed as the century of Peace & Spirituality & also the century of Global Harmony & Harmonious Enlightenment with rapid increase in ethical & spiritual values to develop the Global Harmonious Civilization through harmonious education.” These ideas are your important contribution to the GHA spiritual harmonious diversity. We are very grateful to you for this valuable contribution.

I also want to congratulate you on your great website creation of the International Association of Educators for World Peace (IAEWP), created by the legend of our peace movement Dr. Charles Mercieca about 40 years ago! You have made a very important and excellent work! Of course, I'll be happy to receive your good peace news. Let me one question for you: Could you publish on your site the link to GHA Video: Social Genome of Peace from Harmony: http://youtu.be/hbxY5lREOeA? Charles Mercieca has long recognized still on the Congress in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 2008, that the IAEWP world peace of teachers is inseparable from the GHA peace from harmony. This was reflected in the Congress resolutions. Therefore, I hope that with the publication of a link to our video on your site will not be problems. You could also publish on your site the video script: www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=578. Thank you very much.

Re your suggestion. The Nobel Committee does not recommend to spread any information about the Prize process. Therefore, please, let us keep this info only within the GHA. We can widely spread it ONLY AFTER October 11. This is also and for Saleem's request.

My humble suggestion is that a scanned copy of the letter from the nobel committee be mailed to all chapters of GHA so that they can circulate it to various people they see fit and press. Also maybe we can mail a copy of the recommendation and application which also if circulated to international press will cause good publicity and may increase the chances of getting the prize. Congratulations once again. Himansu Dugar On Sun, 16 Jun 2013 16:04:51 +0530 wrote > Letter from the Nobel Committee Dear GHA Members, I am happy to share with you the nice news for us. Yesterday I received the Nobel Committee's letter of April 8, 2013: “Dear Sir, The Norwegian Nobel Committee has received your proposal for the 2013 Nobel Peace Prize. This year 259 candidates have been registered. The name of the prize recipient for 2013 will be announced on October 11. Sincerely, Secretary, Signature.” This letter means that the GHA is recognized as one of the 259 candidates for the Nobel Peace Prize 2013. I recall my nomination, which we discussed and approved in July 2012: "Nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2013 of the Global Harmony Association on behalf of the co-authors international group (76 co-authors from 26 countries) of the book:The ABC of Harmony for World Peace, Harmonious Civilization and Tetranet Thinking, Global Textbook, by Dr. Leo Semashko, Project Manager, Editor in Chief and GHA 75 coauthors from 26 countries (first published in English in India, New Delhi, Doosra Mat Prakashan, 2012, 334 pages, ISBN – 978-81-923108-6-2) as an unprecedented in world history scientific and spiritual peacemaking instrument to achieve world peace from conscious social harmony through a global harmonious education and enlightenment in this ABC." The GHA ten distinguished professors also sent similar nomination to the Nobel Committee: Vladimir Bransky, Alexander Subetto, Erika Lazarova, Bishnu Pathak, Ernesto Kahan, Norman Kurland, Glen Martin, François Houtart, Matjaz Mulej and Rudolf Siebert. Again, we sincerely thank them. They, obviously, received or will receive such feedback from the Committee. Of course, we all understand that, reasoning mathematically, the chance of one of the 259 - it's a very small chance. But it is not zero! This is important. But the choice will be not mathematical, and on social and peacemaking importance. We'll find out about it on October 11. We'll hope for the best and at the same time we will prepare ourselves to repeat the GHA nomination after it for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014. After all, the GHA peace merits and achievements are constantly growing, with which grow and our chances for this award. GHA has earned it by law for 8 years of unprecedented peace activity through promotion of global harmony and harmonious education in 46 GHA projects, each of which is a peace project, but in its own way. In any case, we have every reason to be proud of GHA official recognition as a candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2013. I am happy to congratulate all of us on this!
