The project contains on January 31, 30 authors’ articles, two poems and four Appendixes, including 13 paintings by Nicholas Roerich devoted to leaders of interfaith harmony. It has 123 pages in total. Please, see project in attachment. It also is published here: www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=541. This unique project embodies interfaith harmony not only in its content and purpose, but also in its authors and their team work and solidary cooperation. This project is purposefully dedicated to the UN World Interfaith Harmony Week, February 1-7. We are happy to present this project to the global civil society, and to invite peace and faith-based organizations, especially the Parliament of World Religions, as well as world citizens to discuss and approve it by your agreement or disagreement with it as a whole or some of its ideas for this week until February 7, inclusively. All of the reasoned opinion, both positive and negative, will be published in a special section of our project on our website. All authors of responses will be included as the project coauthors if they wish. The project is open to new participants on the basis of ideas and articles of interfaith harmony on the basis of the ABC of Harmony and similar books to join the authors, whom we are happy most of all. This project, we plan to publish in the future as a separate book in the six UN languages. The discussion will proceed as in the GHA emails with this project, and within GHA two Forums: peace-from-harmony@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and www.forum.peacefromharmony.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2049, as well as: gha@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, in which you could include without problems.
