Dear Bruce,
Let me first tell you about one detail. Your treatment
"everyone" to the GHA colleagues and friends, at
least from the point of view of Russian perception, does not
sound like the best way, not by friendly but with a shade of
neglect and arrogance. Could you use a more dignified
treatment for the GHA members? Thank you.
Thank you for your sensible response. I think all will agree
that this incident with you is exhausted, and we are
continuing our cooperation.
Your remark about the classes as actors of peace and what
you do not know them reflects the typical state of the
traditional peace studies that ignore and neglect these
actors. But they are essential for truly scientific thinking
and knowledge of peace. Therefore, traditional studies are
far from science, although they may contain some private
achivements that are important for the future GPS. This
science can not be without an analysis of the spheral
classes of the population as universal actors of peace.
They are unfolded in the GHA books, especially in Harmonious Civilization
(2009) and the ABC of Harmony for World Peace
… (2012), as well as in
my previous book Tetrasociology: Responses to
Challenges (2002) and in
my earlier books. I think you understand that a scientific
peace theory must analyze the social classes as peace
actors. This is its central subject and object, which only
makes it as a science. If we do not know the answer to the
question: WHO create peace, we will never get
answers to other questions, including HOW to create
peace, etc.
In this regard, in the content of GHA book about GPS I
specially formulated the following key
chapter: Historical Universal Actors of Global Peace:
Harmonious Spheral Classes of the Population. In this
chapter, I will analyze different class theories and compare
them with the tetrasociological theory of four differing but
harmonious classes of the population, ensuring global peace
as its actors, sources and final causes in nature of society
as a whole. These analyses and comparisons are scattered
across my books for almost 40 years and in different
projects of GHA for the 9 years, which I will have to
summarize and develop up to date. This chapter will give
you, like everybody, exhaustive scientific answer to
question about the peace actors in the different peace and
sociological theories and especially in GPS. Your question
helped me to formulate a new chapter in it. Thank you.
With love, best harmony wishes,
Leo

forgive you, but the last time
Dear Leo, everyone,
Thanks, Leo, for your kind note.
I was responding to your request that I give a public
response to these terms. I'm just searching for the
basis for needing a new term - an explanation of why we need
to consider social classes when we discuss peace theories.
Perhaps one social class approaches peace in a different way
than another? The fact that GHA has been doing this for
years doesn't really answer the question. I still
don't have an answer, and that's why I voted against
these terms.
But, yes, please forgive me for whatever I may have done to
offend you. I love working with you and everyone at GHA.

Subject: Re: (peace from harmony) The Term - Bruce,
we could forgive you, but the last time
Dear Bruce,
I am very hard, sad and unpleasantly to write to you.
I asked you in my letter only the following: "Please,
let us know your opinion as expert in English, as writer and
editor about term PEACELOVELOGY for GPS?"
What I can now answer to your unmotivated aggressive attack
against tetrasociology without a single scientific argument?
Your letter of October 21, limited by this attack and
aggression: "to vote
against using tetrasociology."
I asked you to say about the term and you have threatened
the GHA entire organization. Where is here your peace and
harmony?
The whole year you, like a dove, assured me and GHA in your
love to the ABC of
Harmony, to harmony, to the
GHA mission based on tetrasociology and now – you
urge to
vote against it all GHA! It's like the kiss of Judas.
This is a betrayal of the GHA in which you are the
renegade.
You ignore that the GHA is based on tetrasociology 9 years
old, it's the GHA spiritual foundation. It is the
science of global peace from harmony. Tetrasociology and
its ABC of Harmony is an unprecedented "fundamental revolution in science
and paradigm shift in human consciousness emerging from the
most advanced thinking of the 20th century" (Glen Martin). "The ABC of Harmony
is the dawn of
a shining, harmonious vision of peace and prosperity for all
the nations of the planet Earth!" (Abdul Kalam) and etc. GHA created
on this basis, for 9 years, 7 books and 48 projects that are
an unprecedented contribution to the social science and
global peace. And you're suggesting us abandon
it, vote against tetrasociology, which gives life to the GHA? Do you want to
take
away from us our life? I think you do not understand because
of your ignorance in tetrasociology what you write.
You reject the peace actors - this is nonsense and
stupidity! Without the scientific definition of the peace
actors it will never be reached. Tetrasociology only gives
them the scientific definition. You ignore its scientific
advantage and historical dignity.
If you would denied the dignity of any organization, for
example, if you offered to vote in Norman’s
organization against economic and social justice,
and in Glen’s organization against his
Constitution and in Kurt’s organization against
his interspirituality and so on to anyone, you know
that you immediately shown to the door.
You have been unable to understand peacemaking nature of
tetrasociology and did not try to explore it. I am happy
that none of the GHA members for 5 days did not support your
aggressive urge: "to vote against
tetrasociology." The GHA trust to
you here was rendered zero. In such cases, usually, resign.
But we are ready to forgive your act of aggression and to
offer you pursue your technical functions in the GHA that
you are doing well and free you from participating in the
GHA new book based on tetrasociology. You have a lot of
other advantages besides theoretical, for which we can
appreciate you in the GHA. So we could be forgiving your
mistake with your aggression with the hope that such a
mistake will not be repeated in the future.
Could you learn from your mistakes now?
With love to peace, best harmony wishes,
Leo

Subject: (peace from harmony) The Term - TetraMysteries
Everyone,
Leo has specifically invited me, personally, to contribute
my thoughts publicly on the
"linguistic/epistemological" question he has asked
of the group. I had planned to remain silent since not many
would be likely to accept my thoughts, but I will respond
now that I have been personally invited.
As indicated earlier, I think we simply need a book on
peace. Its title could be something mile "Viewpoints on
Peace" or a similar name. However, as far as I can see,
Leo insists that the book is to be primarily on his 4-class
system (which, incidentally, is so reminiscent of earlier,
failed class-based systems of government that emerged from
Russia in years past).
The group may not be aware, but several leaders in peace
movements, formerly GHA members, have dropped out because
they are ashamed to associate themselves with the
group's current activities.
There are over 200 of us, and I have posed the question more
than once. Can't anyone answer?
In what possible way does this "tetra" system have
any relationship to peace. In the most recent proposed
chapter we see a clear description of the four classes, and
we are informed that world peace will come from their
understanding.
But please bear with me on this. Isn't true that the
four groups, as a totality, represent everyone in
the country under consideration? And, if so, then isn't
it logical that, when we say they should understand
something, aren't we really saying
that everyone should understand something? It's
a tautology, for it brings us back to the question of how to
achieve peace. All that Tetrasociology does is to say that
everyone - all four classes - must understand it. But what
does that matter. Isn't the main
question how to achieve world peace.
Not who will do it.
Which basically makes the 4-group system no more than a
description of the participants.
Despite this, we in GHA are being advised that knowing these
four groups somehow constitutes a radical new science, an
amazing new branch of academia. When in fact, as with many
areas in academia, it is nothing more than a new way to say
old things.
A few weeks ago I urged everyone to vote against using
tetrasociology as a basis for the new book. I thought the
problem I cite above would be self-evident. But I see very
little reaction either way, except from our leader. So,
someone please help me. In what way does breaking the
population into these four groups have anything to do with
achieving world peace? I must be missing something. Sadly,
nobody seems willing to address this very central problem.
And, without addressing it, the entire "system of
thought" under consideration is without merit.
I ask again, without any expectation of change this time.
What would be wrong with GHA simply working on the problem
of how best to achieve world peace? Why waste our time on
these 4 sociological groups?
I apologize if I have interfered with a groundbreaking new
academic discussion. I planned to hold back my thoughts, but
I was invited to comment to the entire group.
Yours in peace and harmony,
Bruce

===========================
Dear GPS
coauthors and GHA members,
We have identified with you, in the first approximation, the
GPS’s book Contents, the architecture of this science and
the architecture of global peace, which found expression in
the GPS Laws. All of these are published here:
www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=585
Now before GHA there is a new epistemological question of
linguistic character: which term we may choose to name/title
GPS? This is not an idle question, as the name of each
science – it is its terminological and linguistic
constituting in the language of scientific knowledge of
humanity, as well as its broad praxiological (practical,
social, technological and user) process.
We know that GPS is still not exists, therefore, naturally,
there is no term to title this science. The GHA is a pioneer
in this field. GHA first became aware of this science and
its social need in the 21st century and the first attempted
to create it for more than eight years on the basis of
scientific theory of social harmony, the most detail
presented in the GHA book "The ABC of Harmony for Global
Peace ... "
(2012: www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=478)
But GHA still have not
found the term for this science name. Today I am pleased
to offer you for discussion and approval of this term in the
first approximation for 3 days up to October 23 inclusively
by your YES or NO with your comments. Naturally, I want to
stress once again that our choice is not final, we will
return to it throughout the whole year of creation of this
GPS book. Our initial selection will be just the beginning
in the definition of the term for the GPS title.
The most typical way to form the name of science in history
of human knowledge is a synthesis of the two terms, one of
which expresses the subject area of science, and the other -
the Greek term "logy", expressing scientific
knowledge, a science of this field. For example: sociology -
the science of society, psychology - the science of psyche,
biology - the science of life, geology - the science of
earth, and so on. Of course, other ways of forming the name
of science also exist, but today we will experience this
way.
We might think, based on these assumptions, the GPS name can
create very easy and simple: you combine two words –
“peace” and “logy”. However, the term
"peacelogy" is already used in Russian and
English. Search of GOOGLE shows 3,500 cases of its use in
the Russian language (as MIROLOGY), and 740 cases of its use
in the English language. Their analysis led to the following
conclusions.
The term MIROLOGY in Russian language discredited by the
religious sects (http://www.antimodern.ru/mirology.html), neo-Marxists
(http://kommunika.ru/?p=6302), literary pranksters
(http://frumich.livejournal.com/216144.html,
http://zvezdochet.livejournal.com/88954.html), unfounded claims to
"innovation logical thinking in psychology –
MIROLOGY” (http://region70.ru/Drugoe/Ostalnoe/16560/?inf=1), etc. This term
has been involved
in the Russian language on the identity of conscious or
unconscious confusion of two completely different concepts -
THE WORLD AS COSMOS (the surrounding universe) and PEACE AS
LACK OF WAR IN HUMAN SOCIETY. In the English language on
Chinese websites usually it is used in the sense of
"Philosophical Peacelogy, the Spirituality of
peace":
(http://m.riss.kr/search/Search.do?queryText=znSubject,Philosophical+Peacelogy&searchGubun=true&colName=re_a_kor&detailSearch=true)
or in licensing, marketing and so
on, that is far from the GPS.
Therefore, this term is not suitable to describe and express
GPS name, to avoid any association with discredited or
different meanings of this term.
The GPS is a new science, which opens a new era of world
history - the era of peaceful harmonious coexistence among
the peoples of the Earth, which excludes any war. This era
is fundamentally different from past, military, era of
humanity. Therefore, GPS, which begins this era of humanity,
requires a new and appropriate title, not aggravated by the
vicious or narrow senses of the past era. In terms of this
criterion, I can offer a choice of one of three
"pure" (they are not in GOOGLE) terms for the GPS
title:
1. Peacelovelogy - combines two universal values of
"peace" and "love" with
"logy"
2. Peaceharmonylogy - combines two universal values of
"peace" and "harmony" with the
"logy"
3. Tetrapeacelogy - combines the value of "peace"
with its four dimensions of "tetra" and
"logy"
From the point of view of the GPS scientific content, the
third term is the most appropriate and accurate, as it
expresses the four-dimensionality of social harmony and
global peace from this harmony. But their
four-dimensionality, as well as the appropriate term
"tetra" are virtually unknown for science and
social consciousness, so they will cause constant questions
and doubts, for example: What is a tetra? Why is tetra, not
a trio, duo, etc.? The four-dimensionality and its term must
first find acceptance in science to become an element of the
GPS name. Therefore, this term can not be considered
preferable.
The second term also can not be called preferred by the same
arguments, despite the fact that harmony is the ultimate
cause and source of global peace. But it is also not known
yet science and social consciousness.
The most preferred is first term, the values components of
which are positive, universal, well- known for world culture
and are recognized all over the world. They emphasize the
love to peace not war, and they exclude the war. Of course,
they do not differ by rigorous science of GPS but they
express its fundamental commitment: to love peace,
therefore, always and everywhere to produce it that is the
main meaning of global peace and its science.
Therefore, Global Peace Science is, in truth, PEACELOVELOGY.
Conversely: Peacelovelogy is Global Peace Science, born in
the 21st century by the GHA and marking a new era of
humanity - Global Harmonious Peace. To this era was devoted
the GHA first book of 27 authors from 12 countries in 12
languages: Harmonious
Era Calendar, 2006: www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=190
As for the rigorous scientific understanding of this term,
it may be added to it in the future, when this understanding
will find universal acceptance.
Hence, I choose the first term of the three proposed and
invite other members of the GHA to support this choice as
the best to date that do not excepts the offers and
discussion of other options.
As you can imagine, this is a very important voting and a
very important choice for the GHA, so I invite all its
members to take an active part in it and express your YES to
the first term. Of course, the last word may be for each of
you.
Thank you for your participation in the democratic choice of
the term for the name of GPS as a turning scientific
knowledge for history of humanity.
With love to peace and best wishes for peace from
harmony,
Leo
