Om Shanti!

Dear sisters and brothers in Divine Harmony Spirit!

On behalf of the Global Harmony Association (GHA), I am happy to invite your great spiritual organization Brahma Kumaris and your World Spiritual University to join the new World Peace Movement: Peace and Disarmament from Harmony (PDH), the draft of which is published here:

www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=532

The motivation to create this movement is represented in the GHA invitation letter to international peace organizations, which is published here: www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=538

The active participation of Brahma Kumaris in the PDH Movement and also joining it with the former Presidents of India as secular leaders will together ensure India's leadership in the Movement.

The GHA invitation letter to President of India (2002-2007) Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam is published here: www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=535

The GHA invitation letter to President of India (2007-2012) Smt. Pratibha Devisingh Patil is published here: www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=536

We invite Brahma Kumaris to join the PDH Movement to become of its spiritual leadership with program of universal peace meditation in Divine Harmony. Our invitation is very simple and at the same time fundamental. This Movement is created o­n the spiritual basis of global and universal harmony. Brahma Kumaris and its University have developed this spiritual direction for decades. The University conducted the first International Conference: "Universal Harmony" in 1993 (20 years ago!) and in 1996 published in Russian the brochure of the same name, which was published recently with great pleasure o­n the GHA website here: www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=550. We hope to publish it also in English after my visit to Mount Abu in the near future o­n the retreat "Golden Morning".

All your spiritual activity of Divine Harmony is aimed at promoting peace in the world. This is evidenced by your great peace deeds: The Brahma Kumaris Peace Park, Peace Charter, signed at the conference in 1993, the creation of many musical works devoted to peace, the construction of Peace Palace in Mount Abu and much more.

In your Peace Charter it reads: "The cause of all wars and all kinds of aggression is negative (disharmonious – L.S.) state of mind: hatred, anger, revenge, jealousy, ... imperial ambitions, hegemonism .... (All this) can be overcome by understanding of personal transcendent nature, the spiritual unity of all people and himself as a member of the common world family .... (Which) does not disturb the harmony and peace in society .... (Why do you need the following major rule of behaviour): I will be live in harmony with o­neself, nature, my neighbors ... and I will not make any physical or verbal violence" (pp. 6-15, Russian edition). Of course, for 20 years, much has changed in the world and the Brahma Kumaris, so your Peace Charter requires improvement. It can be developed as a new Peace Charter for the PDH’s new Peace Movement.

Dadi Janki and other spiritual leaders of Brahma Kumaris often talk about inner and universal harmony. We recognize Brahma Kumaris as a world leader of harmonious spirituality and Divine Harmony. Your colossal potential of spiritual harmony, organically supplemented by the potential of scientific harmony is represented in the GHA collective book: The ABC of Harmony (2012; this book is presented to you) and will be a common cultural platform to join the peace organizations, and then all the nations of the world in the movement of humanity for peace and disarmament in the 21st century.

All your spiritual achievements of harmony give to the GHA every reason to invite Brahma Kumaris to become the spiritual leader of the new World Peace Movement. It will bring great benefit and humanity, and your organization o­n the integral base of spirituality and science of harmony. They form a coherent whole, but serve different beneficial faces that perfectly complement and reinforce each other, constantly expanding the range of each face of o­ne Divine Harmony.

Joining the Brahma Kumaris to the PDH Movement will enrich your global initiatives (Health, Leadership, Media and Environment) in the most important trend today: World Peace. Millions more will come in the Brahma Kumaris to join in spirituality and meditation to this new Peace Movement of the 21st century.

The common spiritual platform of Divine Harmony will enable us to call the world's religions to become reconciled and join the new World Peace Movement o­n this basis. The United Religions – it is a new global perspective for Brahma Kumaris.

In connection with this invitation, I would be happy to discuss it with the spiritual leaders of Brahma Kumaris in Mount Abu during my almost two-week (1-10 November) retreat in your University. Is it possible for me to meet with the spiritual leaders o­n this issue in Mount Abu? I would also like to invite other GHA leaders from India to the meeting.

Sincerely,

Your brother in Divine Harmony,

Dr. Leo Semashko,

GHA President
