Organizational plan for the Peace Science Primer (PSP) collective completion to February 15, 2025 – the GGHA 20th anniversary By Leo Semashko Updated 14-11-24. The PSP book will be written and published, as always in the GGHA 20-year tradition in two languages: Russian and English, for translation and publication in other languages. The fundamental motivation and planetary peacemaking purposes of the Peace Science (PS) in its Primer was discussed many times with Rudolf Siebert in early 2024, in two languages, here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=1077, and initially with the GGHA members in 2023, here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1124. Publication: In English: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224 In Russian: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=1091 Dedicated to the blessed memory of our great friend J. Galtung, whose outstanding “peace researches” since 1959 have created the ground for the GGHA Peace Science, in which he was the coauthor, and its Primer (Need correct!) I. PSP title variants: - a. Perpetual Peace Science Primer/Gospel (PPSPG), ~120 pp., maximum, - b. Perpetual Peace Science Primer (PPSP), ~120 pp, - c. Peace Science Primer, Spheronics (PSPS), ~120 pp, - d.

The coauthors number may change during the PSP creating process; see point IX. III. PSP Editors Editor-in-Chief: Dr. Leo Semashko Editor: Dr. Rudolf Siebert Editor: Dr. Matt Meyer Editor: Dr. Surendra Pathak Editor: Dr. Bishnu Pathak IV. The PSP targeted priorities in time, First of all for the great events and dates of 2025 1. Strategic Goal: ‘To ensure the survival of humanity and stop the destruction of our World by violence, we must refuse and eliminate militarism, racism, Zionism, Nazism, terrorism, genocide and war. Let us substitute Peace Science. It is a more loving and humane way of living, for humans, and more in keeping with the spirit of love and truth in every human heart.’ Mairead Corrigan Nobel Peace Laureate 2. Current goals and objectives for 2025: January 20 – Inauguration of Donald Trump, February 15 – the GGHA 20 years, a key priority, May 9 – 80 years of Victory over Nazi Germany, July 18 – 100 years of Hitler's ‘Mein Kampf’ publication as the source of Western/NATO neo-Nazism, August 6 and 9 – 80 years of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic genocide, which embodied the Third Reich "German Nuclear Program" and gave birth to the West/NATO genocidal nuclear civilization, imposed on humanity by the nuclear arms race, which put it on the brink of extermination, suicide in the new world nuclear war. As the Third Reich successor, the nuclear civilization raised the Nazi genocide and militarism from the national to the global, nuclear level. The West/NATO hegemony and unipolarity turned into its neo-Nazism, predicted by Galtung. It has been manifested for 80 years in the form of the "cancellation of national cultures", global structural violence, ten-year mass sanctions, annual wars, the priority race for nuclear, genocidal weapons, double standards, incitement of hatred between peoples, color revolutions to change “disobedient” governments, military genocidal extermination (both planned and real) of the peoples of Palestine, Russia, North Korea, Iran, Syria and other "unwanted" peoples. In its actions and intentions today, both peace and every peace culture, even his own, since ancient times and its own religion, are completely neutralized and nullified. The West/НАТО has no plans for peace for anyone, neither for itself nor for humanity. October 24 - 80 years since the United Nations (UN) creation. And others. For these dates and events, radically opposed in historical global meanings, the PSP serves, on the one hand, as a fundamental scientific justification and incentive for the humanity peacemaking trend and on the other hand, as the fundamental scientific instrument for refuting and eradicating the humanity militaristic, genocidal and Nazi trend. The fundamental, strategic meaning of the Peace Science and its primer (PSP) is revealed in the epigraph by Mairead Corrigan, expressing their fundamental focus on the global scientific justification of the humanity perpetual peace, which simultaneously becomes a crushing instrument for the elimination, neutralization and abolition of all wars, all forms of their manifestations and justification. This fundamental scientific meaning defines all the numerous peacemaking goals and objectives of PSP, dedicated to the popular disclosure of the most important of them. The main one is to arm the new, young generations’ consciousness with anti-militaristic scientific immunity and an instrument against all forms of violence through popular and accessible PSP. The content, structure, methodology and formats of PSP and their limitations are subordinated to this strategy. The PSP restrictions: 1. The PSP brevity, no more than 100 pages for 20 paragraphs with appendices of coauthors' contributions in the form of selected quotes, both yours and other authors. 2. Time pressure of the key priority, limited time until February 15, 3 months, 90 days, only 4 days for each paragraph, taking into account their last year's work. 3. The synopsis format for both the text of each paragraph (no more than 4 pages!) and its appendix is 1 page. 4. The contributions limitation. At a minimum, at least one contribution to one paragraph from each coauthor is sufficient, but fundamental, like Mairead, Rudy or Matt ones. 5. The discussion boundaries. The discussion of each paragraph is limited to onE day, so that we can meet our time pressure and meet our PSP PRIORITY for the next 3 months. V. PSP Structure The PSP structure is: 15-20 paragraphs of contents, 5 pages each. + "Prolegomena": Introduction, Preface, History, as well as the Bibliography and Appendices: 20 pages, no more. The book is expected to be a total of 100-120 pages, maximum. The optimal size is 15 paragraphs of contents with others - total 100 pages no more. The contents paragraphs in the draft version were written in 2023 and published for acquaintance, to compare and remember what we did here: In English: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1129 In Russian: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=1028 VI. Paragraph structure The PSP each paragraph is no more than 5 pages long and built in the following structure and formats. 1. Theoretical, macrosociological part, similar to the conceptual models of T. Parsons, A. Toffler, P. Sloterdijk is: 3-4 pages, in the format of a synopsis, i.e. briefly, without detailed argumentation and detailed theoretical reasoning. 2. The format of visual images of theoretical content: structural models, tables, banners, diagrams, called "Pictures/Figures". 3. The statistical format of the paragraph content, "war and peace figures", if they are appropriate, accessible and found for it. 4. The format of quotations, aphorisms, poetic quatrains, artistic images, etc. (briefly "quotes") is implemented in the each paragraph Appendix on one page out of five. The formats of synopsis, visuals, statistics and quotations are intended to ensure the maximum accessible popularity for the PSP extremely complex theoretical content. VII. Structure of the paragraph "Appendix" The coauthors quotations multitude in every paragraph is structured according to four societal spheres in accordance with the interests and professional competence of the coauthors. A. Quotes of the social sphere, SOCIOSPHERE: 1. Peacemaking and peacemakers: Matt Meyer, Rosa Dalmiglio, Yulia Budnikova, etc. 2.

Coauthors, biographical notes with photos. NOTE. The titles, sequence and number of paragraphs by merging them with others may change in the course of their discussion and writing. The number of paragraphs by merging is supposed to be reduced to 15, to 75 pages with the book total length no more than 100 pages. Simpler paragraph titles are possible and desirable, but adequate to their content. IX. "Coauthors Rules" in the PSP collective intellectual work 1. The coauthor’s contribution PSP in the process of its writing and discussion is possible in two options together or only in one of them: A. By adjusting the proposed paragraph content within the accepted boundaries and/or B. By offering his or another, adequate to the paragraph, quote in 3-5 lines (no more) in its Appendix. 2. The paragraph discussion, due to the PSP priorities and boundaries is limited to ONE DAY with the brief adjustments and suggestions from coauthors. Each coauthor can find 30 minutes during the discussion day to read the next paragraph 4 pages, determine his agreement or disagreement with its text, formulate in 2-3 lines his disagreement essence for public response and think over his contribution to its Appendix within 1-2 weeks. 3. Each coauthor is allowed one quote per paragraph, in accordance with his overall contribution to Peace Science and his competence over the past years, expressed in their "Synopsis" from 15-10-24 https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=1086. 4. New coauthors, upon their public confirmation of participation in PSP and consent with these "Rules", form similar quotes based on their past works together with the editor-in-chief. 5. The coauthor’s silence during the discussion means his agreement with the paragraph text and his quote absence on this day. The coauthor’s silence for three months means his very exclusion from the PSP team and his withdrawal from it. 6. Each coauthor can leave the PSP team at any time for any reason, publicly announcing this. But his contribution to PSP, if any, and his coauthorship will be preserved unless he renounces them. 7. Each coauthor is determined with statistical verification of spherons as the peace science foundation, if he has not participated in it before. It is most fully presented in the GGHA book "Gandhica" 82 coauthors 2019*. The PSP many coauthors participated in it or fully share it. Public recognition of this scientific research by other coauthors in a brief review of this book can replace their own statistical verification. But it requires only 2 hours according to the tested method with the help of Leo Semashko at any social object in your country for any year. It is most appropriate when the paragraph discussing devoted to spherons as the perpetual peace actors will be. Such verification is intended to exclude all doubts of the coauthor in the peace science fundamental spheral foundations truth and its primer. But the method of recognizing this truth is offered to new coauthors to choose from. * https://peacefromharmony.org/docs/gandhi-nonviolence-of-spherons-gandhica-2019.pdf * https://peacefromharmony.org/docs/Makhatma-Gandi-Tochka-otscheta-nenasiliya_-Genetika-i-statistika-sferonov_-GANDIKA-2019.pdf 8. Each coauthor submits a brief biographical note up to 15 lines with a photo for publication in the PSP Appendix “Coauthors” at any time before February 1, 2025. X. Publication, distribution and final editing of paragraphs 1. The paragraphs final versions after their discussion are published together with all responses in two languages (Russian and English), in the GGHA website special section here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=1091 https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224. The editor-in-chief sends them to coauthors in one file to avoid duplication and confusion of mailings. Each coauthor can use GOOGLE to translate responses during the discussion from one language to another language without problems. 2. The paragraphs final editing by the editors begins after all of them have been published and are approved by the PSP editors in consensus. 3. The editors find reliable publishers for the PSP mass publication, wide sale and distribution as well as for its translation and publication in other languages: Chinese, Arabic, Spanish, French, etc. This will require them to have a new "Organizational Plan for the PSP Promotion" in February 2025.
4. Our popular PSP will launch a new era of Enlightenment, but already the humanity scientific "Perpetual Peace". It will reveal Einstein's axiom that "peace is not achieved through war", or as the Pentagon now says "Peace through strength", especially not through the nuclear weapons genocidal force in the hands of the nuclear civilization rulers/elites but only through its scientific "understanding", primarily by the people, its youth. They never need a war, for which they, and not the elites, pay with their lives, therefore our PSP primarily serves their scientific peacemaking education and equipment against war and militarism.

ОБСУЖДЕНИЕ
Dear Rudi: We are delighted and very grateful to you for your fundamental proposal of our joint Peace Science message to Trump (Nov.11, here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1228). I fully agree with it. I have thought a lot and weighed various options for implementing this proposal to repeat our letters from 7 years ago to the leaders of America (Trump for the inauguration on January 20) and Russia with new amendments and coauthors. This powerful proposal made me rack my brains for 3 three days with a fundamental update of the OrgPlan so that it would correspond and clearly define our priorities, so that we would fit into their time constraints, and so that it would be as simple and understandable as possible for each coauthor. The updated OrgPlan in the attachment is sent for discussion in onE day, November 15 (details in it) in its 10 parts - whoever can, please make it simpler and shorter. It is also published with previous responses here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224 In my response to you, I focus on your excellent idea for our letter to Trump by the inauguration on January 20. Obviously, we will not have time to write and publish our primer (PSP) before January 20. Instead, I propose that by the end of December, willing coauthors from our team write, discuss and approve a special paragraph of our PSP in 2-3 pages for Trump. I think that for him, as a pragmatist, the most attractive was our paragraph: “Make America by Perpetual Peace Great as Never!” instead of its eternal war of 240 years, which leads it to inevitable death and the loss of all its key cultural gains in all spheres. The plans of the West/NATO and its leader do not include peace for anyone, neither for Ukraine, nor for Israel, etc., and Trump intends to turn it towards peace, which he will not be able to do without peace science and its primer. The rationale for this fundamental update of Trump's winning slogan is revealed by our special paragraph: "Department of Peace from Harmony in the American Government to Shift the Arms Race into a Peace Race." I included it in the PSP "Contents," in the third part, see OrgPlan. It will help Trump turn his melting pot of transforming the USA militaristic aggressive policy, suicidal for it, into a peacemaking one, ensuring its "greatness as never before" through the synthesis and deep integration in the synergy of combining four powerful ideas. 1. His winning slogan MAGA, 2. The "Department of Peace" of the American B. Rush, 3. The "shift of the arms race into a peace race" of the American M.L.K. 4. And the "perpetual peace" of the German I. Kant. This fundamentally effective and strong paradigmatic alloy is made by our peace science. What prevents us from sharing it in the interests of survival and healing the American people from suicidal militarism with Trump, who was the first to embark on this very dangerous course for him, as for J.F.K.? What do you and other coauthors think about this? Are they ready to support similar paragraph, to send it to Trump, for example, on January 10? Best wishes to you and everyone for health and peace, Leo GGHA Founder (2005) and H/President: www.peacefromharmony.org; 14-11-24 ---------------------
Dear Leo: Thank you for your good letter. I am in full agreement with it. I hope you have received my letter, in which I informed you, that I have sent $ 400.00 to our friend in India hope the check will arrive soon, in spite of all new censorship. I hope it will help. I am very happy, that you have remembered my friend Galtung. I worked with him for several years in Dubrovnik, when he was the director of the Inter-University Center. He was a brave man. He fought against much resistance. I hope, that Trump will keep his campaign promise, that he will make peace in the Ukraine. This promise brought him many votes from American workers, Evangelical nationalists and conservative Catholics. I still think we should send our peace science to Trump and Putin on Trump's Inauguration Day. I am, of course, aware that Trump does not read much. The more important is therefore that our letter is received by some of his cabinet members. Unfortunately the so far selected cabinet members do not look very peaceful. But they shall certainly be most loyal to Trump and will do promptly what he wants them to do. Otherwise they shall soon be fired again. If Trump is really serious about peace in the Ukraine, his cabinet will certainly carry out his wish promptly. But as I mentioned before, with authoritarians one never knows, what they shall do next,or not do next. We know this from the 20th century. Authoritarians do not keep treaties or promises, when they do no longer serve their interests. They are Machiavellians. They follow the aristocratic principles of nature. They admire Hitler' generals; Nixon did so versus Kissinger, and Trump does so. Reagan promised Gorbachev that NATO would not move beyond Germany. only under this condition Gorbachev agreed to the reunification of Germany. East Germany, or the German Democratic Republic, was annexed by West Germany, or the German Federal Republic. There was no constitutional assembly to guide the reunification process as had been promised. I was teaching in the Theological Faculty of the University of Rostock in East Germany, when the reunification of Germany happened. Reagan's promise was broken. The war in the Ukraine was provoked and as such was unavoidable. In order to make peace in the Ukraine, Trump would have to renew this promise in some new form,and keep it. For our peace science we must find partners, who will keep promises given. In any case, lets send our peace science to Trump and Putin on Inauguration Day in spite of everything.. In Solidarity, your Rudi, from the House of Peace, USA. 15-11-24
---------------------------- Dear Leo.Thank you Leo, I am in agreement with your proposal Re letter to Trump and Putin. Thank to you and your colleagues. Peace Mairead Maguire Nobel Peace laureate, Peace people: http://peacepeople.com/ 15-11-24 ----------------------- Уважаемый Рудольф, спасибо вам за вашу активную миротворческую позицию. Полностью поддерживаю идею о направлении нашего общего послания В. Путину и Д. Трампу. По поводу новой версии ОргПлана, то он стал принципиально лучше, короче. Главное в нём то, что обозначены приоритеты, а также стратегии и цели. Это крайне важные для всех маяки нашего букваря. Очень важно будет направление этого послания г-ну Д. Трампу, для дальнейшего стимулирования его к более решительным действиям в целях достижения мира. С уважением Вера Попович. 15-11-24 -----------------------------
Dear Rudi, Many thanks for your financial assistance to our Indian colleague, from whom I have been waiting response for long time and cannot understand what happened to him. Out of 14 coauthors our team, only four brave ones have appeared so far in their responses today, together with Vera from Russia and Mairead from Britain (below is her letter to you and me), ready to sign our message with the Peace Science to Donald Trump for his inauguration. But we still have time to prepare it and find support from other coauthors for it. In any case, even four, we will certainly send it to Trump and a similar one to Putin by January 20, when the conditions of Ukraine's military capitulation with the full guarantee of the USA and Russia peacefulness for it become clear. It is only a question of time and technics, with complete haziness on all sides in understanding the nature and quality of peace, PERPETUAL PEACE, and not a temporary military truce, which only our planetary, macrosociological Peace Science reveals. only it gives an understanding of its inevitable social nature for all military conflicts. I fully share all your doubts and hopes for Trump and his administration, but it is too early to judge them without actions. Below I am sending two updates to our OrgPlan for general discussion, published here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224. IV.2. August 6 and 9: The West/NATO hegemony and unipolarity turned into its neo-Nazism, predicted by Galtung. It has been manifested for 80 years in the form of the "cancellation of national cultures", global structural violence, ten-year mass sanctions, annual wars, the priority race for nuclear, genocidal weapons, double standards, incitement of hatred between peoples, color revolutions to change “disobedient” governments, military genocidal extermination (both planned and real) of the peoples of Palestine, Russia, North Korea, Iran, Syria and other "unwanted" peoples. IX. 4. Our popular PSP will launch a new era of Enlightenment, but already the humanity scientific "Perpetual Peace". It will reveal Einstein's axiom that "peace is not achieved through war", or as the Pentagon now says "Peace through strength", especially not through the nuclear weapons genocidal force in the hands of the nuclear civilization rulers/elites but only through its scientific "understanding", primarily by the people, its youth. They never need a war, for which they, and not the elites, pay with their lives, therefore our PSP primarily serves their scientific peacemaking education and equipment against war and militarism. What can you say about them and about the OrgPlan as a whole? Has it become clearer and simpler, or is there something you don't understand? I would like to ask you to supplement it with an extremely relevant aspect. You are the only one among us who has studied Hitler's Mein Kampf in detail since 1943, both as Wehrmacht soldier and as the scientist and peacemaker. Could you select from this voluminous work, the popularization of which you wrote to me recently, 20 short (up to 5 lines), key quotes on racism, genocide, aggression, militarism and the like, for their inclusion and refutation in the "Appendices" of our PSP paragraphs? This is extremely relevant to us for the centenary of this militaristic and terrorist "bible". Could you compile a list of similar quotes (naturally, in English) in 1-2-3 weeks, so that later we could distribute them together into paragraphs? Friendly, Leo 15-11-24 -----------------------
Your system contribution to peace primer: your quotes list in 1 page Dear primers’ coauthors, We are completing the complex but extremely important process of organizing our "Peace Science Primer" (PSP) creation. It is disclosed in the "OrgPlan" agreed upon with you in the attachment in two languages separately, which with your responses is published here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224. This process final chord in the coming days will be my personal invitations with a request from each of you, in accordance with the PSP synopsis format, your list of 10-20 short (up to 5 lines, preferably 1-2) quotations for the PSP paragraphs within 1-4 weeks. My invitations will allow us to consent in dialogue the personal system contribution of each coauthor, its nature, scale and timing, as well as to clarify the coauthors team taking into account new ones. I need the lists of your quotations as the PSP editor to determine the PSP team final composition and to get a system picture of the number and scale of your contributions to PSP. This will allow me to draw up the detailed "Roadmap" of its creating process for three months, finish organizing our creativity in order to fully immerse ourselves in it without wasting time. This organizational work meets the each coauthor’s interests and therefore is understandable to each of you. We will discuss the remaining questions personally with each of you. Best wishes for your health and our PSP creativity, LeoSemashko, 16-11-24 ---------------------------
Dear Leo and peacemakers, From the recent USA elections, the new president Trump was elected. Trump as an excellent businessman and president, understands that the effort of the Democrats to weaken Russia as a power, using 52 countries against it, through Ukraine, with no casualties of his own, has failed miserably. Their real target is China. But Russia and China caught up them with careful, steady and methodical methods and actions, they created the coalition of Bricks, which advances with faith and self-confidence, to a degree of progress that prompts many countries of our planet to wish to join the bricks. Obviously, all of them do not trust or perhaps fear USA, and are not eager to attack against both Russia and China. The democrats (?) of America may have believed too much in their powers, to fight two wars at the same time. Reality refutes them. Russia and China are powerful at all levels (Apart from the global economic problem, for which economists are warning us for a tragic and dangerous global economic crash). It’s known to everyone that USA credibility has been shaken. The EU and the “elites”, follow them in complete submission to their orders. In the meanwhile, the danger of a global catastrophe is real nowadays. President Tramp will stop the war in cooperation with President Putin. Citizens of EU suffer too much. We are experiencing the effects of the democratic policies that have destroyed Europe for the 3rd time, after the two world wars. With hope for peace globally Dr Panagiotis-Takis D. Ioannides Co-founder and Vice president of GGHA Greece 16-11-24 -----------------------------
Dear Leo: Our friend in India sent us his address and we sent a check to him over 460 dollars, 60 dollars for sending costs. I hope he will receive the check soon. He seemed to be okay. My peace potential is somewhat limited through my illness and over work: 50 letters a day to be answered , completing a book on democracy and against authoritarianism, political activity in crisis time, the family, etc. Attached is a family letter, which you may enjoy. My assistants are overloaded with work as well. You can take all the short quotes from my earlier contributions, my peace making articles, which you consider worthy. I trust you completely!!! I do not consider it to be a good idea, to publish quotes from Hitler's Mein Kampf about race, socialism, communism, the colonization of Russia, etc.. Here is why. I have before me the latest, scientific edition of Mein Kampf, from 2016. The new scientific edition has been sold in the millions in the Middle East. in Europe, in America, all around the world.. All the authoritarians in the world are not only reading the new edition of Hitlers Main Kampf out of historical interest, but rather in order to apply it now, newly, in a new situation. Hitler predicted in his last hours before his suicide, that the return of national socialism would take centuries. He was wrong again, as he was when he wanted to make Europe great again, and sent it into retirement. Hitler's Mein Kampf is very seductive. It is not based on reason, but on the will to power. Hitler was a Schopenhaurian, like Nietzsche, Wagner, Freud, Thomas Mann, Max Horkheimer. and Theodor W. Adorno. Hitler was not a follower of Hegel and his philosophy based on reason rather than will , like Feuerbach, Marx and Engels. Schopenhauer was Hegel's archenemy. in Berlin and Frankfurt.. Thus, what Hitler says in Mein Kampf, a mixture of biography, history, and politics, motivates people immediately. and powerfully, today even more so than 80 years ago. Hitler and Goebbels discussed Schopenhauer to their last hours in Berlin, while Russian troops approached and surrounded the Chancery. To quote Hitler's Mein Kampf without a long scientific explanation and refutation and rejection would only work into the hands of the authoritarians, We must not do that. You are, of course, right that we must wait and see if Trump will really realize what he promised. Of course, authoritarians usually do what they say!!! Trump did not only say, that he will bring peace into the Ukraine and into Palestine. He even said: I am Peace. The man has an unhealthy Messiah complex!!! We must not wait too long, otherwise it may be too late. Best wishes, your Friend Rudi , from the House of Mir. 18-11-24
Peace Science against Hitler. HOW? Dear Rudi, First, thank you very much for helping our unemployed friend from India. Second, I am very grateful to you for your exceptional trust in me in selecting your quotes. Of course, I will find some of them, but I am not sure that they will be the best of the tens of thousands of pages of your works for 20 years on our website and that you will agree with them. As you understand, I cannot look through the colossal number of publications of the PSP coauthors on our site for 20 years to select 10-20 quotes from them. This is physically impossible, so I asked each coauthor to determine his own system contribution to PSP in 10-20 quotes within onE page, no more. But for you I will make an exception and we will see what comes of it. Thirdly, the key issue in your letter is the issue of our attitude in PSP to Hitler's Mein Kampf, the 100th anniversary of which will be on July 18, 2025. This event is listed as a priority in our "OrgPlan" (https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224). Its urgency lies, on the one hand, in the extreme mental danger of this genocidal popular book, in its extremely wide distribution, and on the other, in the almost complete absence of its positive, reasonable and scientific, at the same time popular alternative, rejecting and refuting it with its accessible and convincing humanistic and peacemaking content. We embed similar content in our PSP. No one sets or solves this problem in complete intellectual impotence before it. We, as honest scientists and courageous peacemakers, cannot afford such defeatist impotence. But you are right that quoting Hitler will contribute to his strengthening. Therefore, the fundamental question here is: HOW, IN WHAT WAY SHOULD WE REJECT AND DISPROVE HITLER MENTALLY, AND NOT onLY BY FORCE? Now I do not know the answer to it. This is a question for discussion by all the PSP coauthors and all the GGHA peacemakers. WHAT do you think about this? Hitler's book global influence, perceived by people of will/violence as the "Satan’s Bible", largely explains the West nazification during 80 years, which infects another world. This is the historical fact. Is it possible to keep silent about it, as the inevitable fact of the humanity genocidal suicide today with Hitler's nuclear weapons, essentially in the Hitlerist nuclear civilization? I am convinced that it is impossible to remain silent about it, silence today is support for Nazism and Hitler, it is the impotence of the peace forces and reason in the absence of the Peace Science. But I and no one else know HOW to think and talk about it? Let's look for an answer to this question together, to embody it in our PSP, because it is nowhere to be found and nothing opposes Hitler today. Or am I wrong? I would like to understand this. Best wishes for peace science as an anti-Nazi immunity, Leo Semashko 20-11-24 ---------------------------- Your system contribution to peace primer: your quotes list in 1 page Dear Asha, We sent you earlier the agreed "Organizational Plan" (OrgPlan, 6 pages) for our "Peace Science Primer" (PSP) creation, which with the responses is published here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224. In this regard, we are pleased to invite you to coauthor PSP and discuss your contribution to it. In accordance with the PSP synopsis format, which is defined in its OrgPlan, we ask and offer you to send within 1-4 weeks the list of 10-20, no more, of your short quotes up to 5 lines, better in 1-2, within 1 page, which express your or other peacemakers' key ideas from your or other writings on the topic of your professional and peacemaking work. In it, the most important theme for PSP, in my opinion, is your quotes about global peace, Indian peace culture and spirituality at Mahatma Gandhi first including Gandhian Peace Science and its Primer meaning, etc. We also offer you the unique publishing business proposal for discussion. The PSP, as a pioneer, opens a new and eternal business niche – PEACE-BUSINESS, the essence of which is expressed in the PSP OrgPlan, X.4. A brief starting formula for this business: PSP – PEACE BUSINESS - Bestseller in world editions, as at Amazon- In the end, its organizers become Millionaires-Billionaires. The PSP Peace Business would provide funding for the India’s Peace Science in 2025 and beyond. If this proposal is interesting to you and your business friends, I am ready to discuss its details after PSP completion in February personally. Your quotes will be distributed across all (or part of) the PSP paragraphs, in their "Appendices". You can observe, control and finally edit the result of using and publishing your quotes in the PSP paragraphs in the process of their public discussion and with me personally. They will constitute your unprecedented peacemaking contribution as coauthor to the PSP popular, mass-published in many languages. It will forever preserve your name in the peacemaking annals. We are very interested and will highly appreciate your contribution to it. This is our final request and offer to you. Please, let me know your principled answer (YES or NO) to this invitation within 2-3 days. In case your positive answer, please, let me know in what period, within 4 weeks, I can expect your quotes list. Best wishes for your health and peace, Leo Semashko 19-11-24 Dear Leo, Thank you very much for involving me in PSP and inviting me to contribute. I am very happy and excited to join this very timely and important project. Please allow me to submit my one page contribution, quotations about global peace, Indian peace culture and spirituality of Mahatma Gandhi within 10 December. I hope this is acceptable to you. Let me express my ignorance about Peace Business. I only know that I will write what I honestly feel about the issues related to Gandhi and Peace and if such a book translated and published in many languages and sells well at Amazon, we all would be happy. I have been following all the threads of the mails and often I really do not have much to say. So, I just read and improve my knowledge. Thank you once again. Regardsandbestwishes, Asha Asha Mukherjee Professor,Department of Philosophy & Religion and Former Director, Women's Studies Centre, Visva-Bharati University, Santiniketan (WB) INDIA 731235 https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1170 19-11-24 ------------------------------------
Dear Leo Here are some quotes that I find very interesting. Chaitanya Dave, USA https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1205 20-11-24 Dear Chaitanya, Thank you very much for your 21 classic quotes from John Kennedy, Nikita Khrushchev, Buddha, Leo Tolstoy and Mahatma Gandhi. They will be used in our Peace Science Primer (PSP: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224). However, could you send me maybe 10 more of your individual quotes from your brilliant articles of recent years for their inclusion in different paragraphs of our PSP, so that your personal system contribution to the Peace Science can be seen in it? Please, search and send. Thank you. Best wishes for your health and peace, Leo Semashko 21-11-24 -------------------------------- Dear Leo, It is good to hear from you and I want to extend my appreciation of your maintaining the GHA movement and web pages that do so much to promote peace and harmony within our broken planetary condition. I am a Gandhian, of course, and have studied Gandhi’s works extensively and have writing about this in a number of articles. Of the many excellent commentators on Gandhi I have read, none of them see his idea of Varnas as central to his doctrines of peace, truth, and nonviolence. Also in the major books that I have published in the last few years: One World Renaissance (2016), Global Democracy and Human Self-Transcendence (2018), The Earth Constitution Solution: Design for a Living Planet (2021), and Human Dignity and Word Order (2024), my research has included many of the great sociological, psychological, and spiritual thinkers of the 20th and 21st centuries. Virtually none of them draw on Gandhi’s concept of Varnas (let alone Spherons) when they articulate the stages of human development and the holism of humanity. Much of this research is presented and documented within these books. Our movement spearheaded by WCPA and ECI is organizing and expanding rapidly. You have seen the call for the World Democracy Campaign (WDC) for a transformative event in Pondicherry in December 2024. We are actually laying the concrete institutional foundations for a transformed world system. This campaign will occupy my time for the coming year and, aside from regular articles promoting this campaign, I will not have time for collaborations. The information that you have regarding my work on your web page is very much outdated. Please update it. Our WCPA/ECI website is www.earthconstitution.world. The www.world-parliament.gov location is not an official website for the World Constitution and Parliament Association (WCPA). My email address is for this work gmartin@earthconstitution.world. The other websites you cite on that page are no longer existent. This does little good for moving forward a world of peace when people who visit these pages are confronted with incorrect and outdated information. I very much appreciate your commentaries on current affairs that are insightful and compelling, and I am glad to see the lively interchange among GHA participants. I support GHA and the good that it does. Thanks for all the hard work that you do with your leadership of the GHA movement. With blessings, Glen Dr. Glen T. Martin President, World Constitution and Parliament Association (WCPA) President, Earth Constitution Institute (ECI) www.earthconstitution.world https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=428 20-11-24 Dear Glen, Thank you very much for your wise, balanced response. I highly appreciate your philosophical, holistic ideas, which I fully share. However, I believe that their fragmentation in your Constitution requires the necessary supplementation with the Gandhian varnas/spherons social holism (below). First, about our positive affairs in fundamental details. I have well understood your busyness, which "will not have time for collaborations", i.e. for discussing the PSP (Peace Science Primer) paragraphs and for jointly writing for it a paragraph about your Earth Constitution, which will certainly be in it. I foresaw this in my letter and wrote that in any case your brilliant ideas/quotes will be used in our (GGHA) PSP even without your control over their use, which you refuse. In this regard, could we include your name in the PSP coauthors list, or do you refuse this? Here we need your principled answer YES or NO, so that there are no misunderstandings in the future. Along with this, the question is related: should I keep your email in the PSP coauthors list or should I exclude it (YES or NO)? As for your traditional rejection of the Gandhian varnas/spherons, no references to any number of studies work here, because their experimental refutation does not exist and NO onE has presented it. History knows many great examples of temporary non-recognition of certain ideas that after millennia, centuries and decades were experimentally confirmed and became generally accepted truths. Such are the ideas of Democritus' atoms, the Pythagoreans Philolaus and Aristarchus of Samos heliocentrism idea and a number of others. It is simply that traditional, fragmentary and disciplinary thinking is not capable of rising to the level of cognitive integrity of spheral thinking, but the future belongs to it. Einstein understood this, emphasizing that only "a substantially new [holistic, spheral] manner of thinking" will ensure the humanity survival. The German philosopher Sloterdijk in his trilogy “Spheres” (1998-2004), which you are obviously not familiar with, confirms this. The cognitive integrity of your Constitution thinking requires integration in synergy with the social, macrosociological holism of spheral thinking, without which the survival of the first is impossible. Although partial, fragmentary confirmations of it are possible in similar social experiments that you heroically organize at your own peril and risk. They are magnificent, unique, innovative, pioneering, deserve all kinds of praise, etc., but they are clearly insufficient, limited and doomed outside of its cognitive macrosociological holism. This is the key epistemological question of modern social holism, including your legal (fragmentary) and my macrosociological (spheral, integral) holism. You correctly noted that holism also has stages of fragmentation that apply to both of our holisms. A discussion between us on this key philosophical problem using our examples could greatly help humanity and us. Therefore, I again invite you to think about the form and extent of our similar discussion, its continuation, even outside the framework of PSP or the Constitution. As for updating your personal page on our site, which over 20 years has accumulated more than 600 similar pages of the Peace Science coauthors, including you at its early stage, I will do this, but not immediately, but gradually, later. Thank you for the relevant information, which I will publish along with your bio on it. Best wishes for your health and peace, Leo 21-11-24 -----------------------------------

NOTE. The titles, sequence and number of paragraphs by merging them with another title may change in the course of their discussion and writing. The number of paragraphs, by combining, is supposed to be reduced to 15, to 75 pages, with the book total length no more than 100 pages. Simpler paragraphs titles are possible and desirable but adequate to their content. VII. PSP coauthors rules in the collective intellectual work 1. Each coauthor confirms his contribution to the Peace Science, which for the majority is presented in the "Synopsis" from 15-10-24 https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1219 and confirmed by many. 2. For invited new coauthors, with their public desire to participate in PSP, such a synopsis of 3-5 lines can be quickly compiled for discussion and approval by the new coauthor. 3. Each coauthor from the invited ones publicly confirms his participation in the PSP to the best of his abilities and capabilities. 4. Every week, a public discussion of 1-2 paragraphs of the PSP is held as they are ready, the final versions of which, after editing and consensus approval, four editors are published in a special section of the GGHA website here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=1091 , https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224 5. The texts of the paragraphs are discussed and published in two languages (Russian and English), and are also sent to them in one file in order to eliminate duplication and confusion of mailings. Each coauthor knows how to use the universally available GOOGLE translator to translate responses in another language without problems. 6. Each coauthor has the right to participate in the discussion of each paragraph: send its alternative text, suggest any changes and adjustments for it within the framework of the shared PS, as well as any aphorisms to it, but do this briefly and constructively in the format of a synopsis, so as not to slow down the work of the team of co-authors. 7. The silence of the co-authors to the invitation, in this case, contrary to the tradition of the GGHA, will be a sign of REFUSAL to participate in the PSP and its exclusion from the mailing list. But silence during the discussion of this or that paragraph will be a sign of its approval, when the coauthor has nothing to object to and nothing to change in it. 8. Each co-author can leave the PSP team at any time for any reason, publicly announcing this. His contribution to the BNM and his co-authorship in it to any extent will be preserved and reflected in the PSP Appendix "Co-authors". 9. During the period of completion of the PSP (3-4 months), each co-author, if he did not participate in the statistics of verification of spherons as the foundation of the PS before 2024, determines the time for this procedure. It requires no more than 2 hours according to the tested method with the help of L. Semashko at any convenient facility with personnel employment statistics: school, university, any enterprise, any city/settlement, any industry, any country or humanity as a whole for any year, starting from 2020. Similar verification is intended to eliminate all doubts about the PS fundamental spheral foundations truth, statistical studies of which were conducted in the GGHA since 2005 and many years before it. The most complete of them is presented in the book "Gandhica" by 82 coauthors of 2019*. Public recognition of this scientific research by a co-author in a brief review of it can replace one's own statistical verification. 10. Each co-author submits a brief biographical note of up to 15 lines with a photo for publication in the PSP Appendix "Co-authors" at any time before February 1, 2025.
These rules are supplemented by the technical regulators: 1. Public discussion of paragraphs lasts 2 days, but their correction is open for 3 months. 2. Correction of a paragraph is permissible only within its established maximum length of 5 pages, no more. 3. The general rule for correcting paragraphs: "the shorter and simpler, the better", but preserving its meaning. 4. Each PSP coauthor always has a window (during 3 months) open for his/her minimal contribution to the section "Aphorisms, Quotations, Idioms, Proverbs (AQIP)" of each paragraph. * https://peacefromharmony.org/docs/gandhi-nonviolence-of-spherons-gandhica-2019.pdf 11. The PSP coauthors discuss and approve this “Organizational Plan” within 2 days, up to and including October 29, in order to begin discussing the first paragraph – “Introduction” – on October 31. Dr. Leo Semashko, GGHA Founder (2005) and Honorary President, https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=286 27-10-24 ----------------------------------
RESPONSES Dear Colleagues, Unfortunately, it is not clear to me what we are asked to agree to. The organizational plan lists themes on which many of us have written. Are we to agree that what we have written can be used? Are we to agree that what others have written can be used? I would be glad to have a clearer idea. Much thanks for your help. René Wadlow 27-10-24 ------------------------------ Dear Leo: I accept our organizational plan. But I share the questions of Rene Wadlow1 I am glad that we included religion into our peace project. But we must be ecumenical. Our peace theory will reach many people from many different cultures with different religions. We want to have participants also from non-Christian backgrounds. Of course, all positive religions share the Silver Rule or the Golden Rule. But they may interpret or express the Golden Rule differently. Such differences also mean enrichment and concretization, and thus help its praxis in national and International, as well private affairs. I also wonder, if our names - Infosphere, Orgsphere, Technosphere, and Sociosphere - could be made a little bit more concrete, so that also non - specialists and lay people could understand them. That would help our peace project. I am with all my best wishes, your Rudi, from the House of Peace 27-10-24 ---------------------------- Dear Leo, Thank you for your mail. I agree with Rene and Rudi that we need clarifications for what we agree for. The language used in the mail is not familiar to me as I hardly understand the technical terms. I suggest that our language and content both be expressed in such a way that the layout person can get the massage. Thanks and regards, Asha 28-10-24 ---------------------------- Dear Dr. Leo, Yes, I appreciate the comprehensive Organizational Plan for the collective completion of the Peace Science Primer (PSP). I fully support this structured, well-planned, and collaborative design, and I accept the assigned responsibilities with gratitude. Thank you for including the "Aphorisms of the Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam as Indian Spirituality," and particularly the emphasis on "Aphorisms of Gandhian, pre-caste varnas/spherons." This addition aligns well with the spirit of universal peace and interconnectedness that the PSP aims to promote. Please correct the name of Markandey Ray it is Rai, Not Roy. Looking forward to contributing to this meaningful project. Warm regards, Surendra Pathak 28-10-24 ------------------------------- Dear colleagues, All your responses are published in two languages here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=1091, https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224 My answers will be to all questions at once and no more than once a day. Thank you for your support, especially the most transparent and detailed from Surendra, and the questions that are natural especially for those who did not participated in last year's cycle of discourse over 20 paragraphs of our last year's PSP (https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1129). No one liked it, especially me, so we postponed it for a year. In order to clarify our PSP holistic meaning, we need to get acquainted with its history last year. This year we are repeating our intellectual offensive to master the PSP unprecedented fortress, which no one in history has ever mastered, although many ladders have been built in it for this. The PSP ultimate, planetary meaning and unique strategy is to integrate many partial, fragmentary approaches/ideas/ladders to the Peace Science (PS) into one macrosociological, spheral paradigm that has been developing and integrating only in the GGHA for 20 years (and it’s still almost 30 years away). We see specific disciplinary, partial ideas at each coauthor that are included in PSP. These ideas for René, Rudy and others are expressed in our synopsis (https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=1086), including Rudi's ecumenism of Catholicism and Orthodoxy, on which our PPRU plan is built. Asha was not involved in this project, so there is no synopsis of her position. But I have long known well her key scientific passion for Mahatma Gandhi legacy, which in its essence is fully integrated into PS and PSP, where it will be presented by a special paragraph and Gandhi's aphorisms of "pre-caste varnas/spherons". Asha's great contribution to PSP will be her brief review, no more than 3-5 pages, of those sources that analyze Gandhi's "pre-caste varnas/spherons". We have not yet found similar sources, which we need to confirm our analysis of them in many books and projects of the GGHA for 20 years. I will name them later for Asha, if she agrees to participate in PSP as its coauthor. Now the main thing: do you agree with this? The details will be revealed and clarified gradually, not all at once. The same for Rene. First, do you agree with my synopsis of your position and your contribution to PS over 20 years of work with the GGHA? If not, offer your correction. Of course, what you (and others) wrote can and will be used, but in accordance with the PSP requirements, i.e. as concisely as possible, in its basic formats of synopsis and aphorisms. Please, read carefully the "PSP Coauthors Rules" in organizational plan. You could clarify them if you want and can. We have been solving Rudy's question about improving the fundamentally new peace science terminology in Einstein's "substantially new [spheral] manner of thinking" for about 50 years and will continue to do so, gradually, for each term separately that is assumed in each PSP paragraph. one thing is clear, the new peace science CANNOT DO WITHOUT NEW TERMINOLOGY, it cannot limit itself to the traditional one, since in this case it will not go beyond their boundaries and will not overcome their essential shortcomings of fragmentation and disunity. They for centuries have been unable to understand and solve the holistic, global problems of humanity, primarily the perpetual peace, remaining at zero in its solution. Therefore, as scientists, let us be patient and solve our unique holistic problems gradually, step by step. Understanding and clarity of the whole will come later, and you already have and know your contribution to it. Therefore, let us go to understanding its place and role from two methodological sides, from the whole to the part and from the parts to the whole, without fearing this high philosophy. Best wishes for perpetual peace through its holistic science, Leo 28-10-24 ----------------------------
Я согласна с организационным планом. Согласна участвовать в создании и завершении Букваря Науки Мира (БНМ). С уважением, Вера Попович 28-10-24 --------------------------------
DearAsha, In addition to my general answer. We have not corresponded for 9 months, since February 1st. You asked for a «window» to complete your three books, so I did not bother you, due to which you missed many important GGHA projects for the UN, NATO, BRICS and the like with our Gandhian Peace Science. My main and simple question for you now: have you completed your three books? Are you ready to participate in the completion of our “Peace Science Primer” (PSP) with your contribution to it, which consists of a 3-5 page sources analysis on the topic of Gandhian "pre-caste varnas/spherons" expressed clearly and powerfully first of all in the following passage from his "My Religion", Chapter 8: "The Law of Varna Varna means pre-determination of the choice of man's profession. The law of varna is that a man shall follow the profession of his ancestors for earning his livelihood. Varna therefore is in a way the law of heredity. Varna is not a thing that is superimposed on Hindus, but men who were trustees for their welfare discovered the law for them. It is not a human invention, but an immutable law of nature - the statement of tendency that is ever present and at work like Newton's law of gravitation. Just as the law of gravitation existed even before it was discovered so did the law of varna. It was given to the Hindus to discover that law. By their discovery and application of certain laws of nature, the people of the West have easily increased their material possessions. Similarly, Hindus by their discovery of this irresistible social tendency have been able to achieve in the spiritual field what no other nation in the world has achieved. Varna has nothing to do with caste. Down with the monster of caste that masquerades in the guise of varna. It is this travesty of varna that has degraded Hinduism and India. Our failure to follow the law of varna is largely responsible both for our economic and spiritual ruin. It is one cause of unemployment and impoverishment, and it is responsible for untouchability and defections from our faith....” SECTION EIGHT: MY HINDUISM. 36. Varna and Caste: https://www.mkgandhi.org/my_religion/36varna_caste.php Have you ever researched this very important issue of Gandhi's legacy? Do you know any Indian or other scholars who have written anything on this? If you do, your contribution and your participation in BNM would be invaluable and very important. YOU wrote about your desire to work in a team with the Indian members of GGGA. I am happy to introduce you to Dr. Surendra Pathak, GGHA-India President (https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1217), with whom we have been collaborating for about 15 years and who has a wide circle of Indian scholars that you could join through individual contacts with him and through me. He could also invite you to the GGGA-India Board as its Vice President, with your active participation in our projects. You also wrote about your financial difficulties. They could be solved by mass (millions) publication of our PSP in many languages all over the world in 2025 with significant revenues for GGHA-India, a significant part of which could be claimed by you if you agree to participate with your contribution to the PSP. Do you agree to participate as its coauthor?Could you answer this question publicly today or tomorrow, the last day? We are very interested in your contribution, very valuable for our PSP. Thank you. Best wishes with hope for cooperation, Leo 28-10-24 ---------------- Dear Leo, Many thanks indeed for including me in the very important work PSP that you are doing and planning to publish. I am really willing to learn from all of you including Pathak Ji. I am new to GGHA and would surely be delighted to be part of the India chapter. I have sent you a mail confirming my participation as Coauthor. Gandhi, as you have rightly quoted, made a sharp distinction between Varna and Caste and used this distinction to understand India's cultural, social and historical traditions in the context of modernity. Some historians have written and discussed in public space the complexities and implications. I would be delighted to work on these along with the philosophical foundations. Dr. Pathak may help me with his experience and to improve through the discussions. The paragraph that you have drawn my attention to is to be seen in the context and time when it was written, later Gandhi has made some modifications in his position that may also be discussed. You are right Leo to remind me of my promise in March, 2024. Unfortunately, I could not succeed with my books as I lost my husband who was also a professor of philosophy and my colleague on 29th March, 2024. I am yet to recover from the greatest loss of my life but realise that I need to keep my commitments going and move on. Therefore, I will do my best to keep my promises and work on the books as well as the Peace project. Please feel free to connect me with Dr. Pathak with contact details. Warmest regards and best wishes, Asha 29-10-24 -------------------------
Dear Leo, My answer is “Yes” Noor M Larik Pakistan 29-10-24
Dear Noor, Thank you very much for your consent to participate in our PSP coauthors team. Could you perform in it the very well-known for you function of statistical support for each of its paragraphs with small statistical data on the example of Pakistan or world statistics, if you know them? When discussing each paragraph, we will discuss with you the necessary statistics nature. Are you agree to this very important function for our PSP? This will be your invaluable peacemaking contribution to it, which will be preserved for centuries in its millions of copies in all major languages. I remember that you have many young friends from professional statisticians. Could you invite any of them to be your assistant and at the same time the PSP coauthor if he agrees? Is this possible for you or are there any insurmountable obstacles? Thank you. With wishes for global peace, Leo 29-10-24 -------------------------- Dear Leo, Thank you very much for your kind clarification. My answer is Yes. Thanks again for including me as well for the PEACE roadmap. Regards and all the best wishes, Asha Mukherjee, India 29-10-24 ---------------------------- Dear Leo and all peace friends Thank you very much for all these propositions and discussions. I approveYES. Attached MANIFESTO FOR AN ACTIVE AND RESPONSIBLE INDIVIDUAL CONSCIENCE: Here is my contribution as an artist teacher and poet for culture of peace. I share with you this manifest that I wrote on 2000. And my poem message dedicated to my school dance classes. Life is a universal dance of ENERGY. Best wishes for perpetual peace, created in each moment with a broad awareness of being. Théa Marie Robert France 29-10-24 Dear Thea Marie, Thank you very much for your support and contribution to our Peace Science Primer (PSP). As a famous and talented poet with your strong, vivid imagination, could you take on the function/mission in our PSP to compose quatrains for each of its paragraphs? Perhaps not to do this immediately, but over time, when inspiration for the paragraph topic comes. Is this possible for you? We will be very grateful to you for creating poetic images of our PSP paragraphs, which (quatrains) are very important for young people, for their expressive perception of our high peacemaking science. This will be your new work and contribution to eternal peace as the teacher. Do you agree? Thank you. Friendly, Leо 10/29/24 ----------------------------------- Dear Leo and All Friends, YES, I approved.

Dear Leo, Yes, I approved it. I am currently working on a 12-point perpetual peace plan to publish thorugh TRANSCEND Media Service. Thank you. Sincerely yours in peace, BishnuPathak, Nepal 29-10-24 --------------- Устное, по телефону подтверждение Ольги Кашиной из России, которая готовится к хирургии глаза и не может отвечать письменно. 29-10-24 --------------------- Dear Mairead, We are very much looking forward and hoping for your participation in our “Peace Science Primer” (PSP) with your talented aphorisms and thoughts on militarism and against it, which will make your name immortal in PSP, published in millions of copies in all major languages. Please, do not hide your peacemaking talent, crushing militarism and violence all your life, since 1975, with the victory over Irish terrorism. What prevents you from joining the PSP, when you have everything for it? I exclude fear before power, because you are fearless. Then what? Your contribution to our joint PSP is extremely necessary for the cause of global peace. Please, do not weaken it. We are waiting today for your strong support for our peacemaking project and participation in it. With hope, love and peace, Leo 29-10-24 -------------------- Results. Congratulations Dear colleagues peacemakers, I am happy to inform you that over the past few days we have received approval for our “Organizational Plan” of the PSP (Peace Science Primer) from 12 members of the GGHA, who have confirmed their participation in the team of coauthors for its completion by February next year. We congratulate everyone on the birth of the unique intellectual peace team and express our deep gratitude to all our coauthors, all responses of which are published here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224. Of these, one response, from Bishnu Pathak, was personal to me, apparently due to an oversight, and the other, from Olga Kashina, was oral, over the phone, since she had eye surgery. Here is the full list of the PSP 12 coauthors team with me: Leo Semashko, Rudolf Siebert, Surendra Pathak, Vera Popovich, Noor Larik, Asha Mukherjee, Théa Marie Robert, Rosa Dalmiglio, Yulia Budnikova, Takis Ioannides, Bishnu Pathak, Olga Kashina from 9 countries. Each has a personal page on our GGHA website, searchable by everyone. The coauthors team organizational part is completed by limiting our communication only to the emails indicated coauthors since October 31 - This network includes only 12 persons. Of course, our team is open to new coauthors who agree with our "Organizational Plan" and will send us a public request with a proposal for his/her peacemaking contribution to PSP. We will be happy to consider it. We may have to change my email account, which will be used for all our subsequent discussions, since my current account is often blocked by our enemies and envious people. But I will inform you about this specifically if there is a need to change the account. I will send the PSP first paragraph for discussion in 2-3 days, since the past days have been completely absorbed by organizational issues and numerous correspondence. I apologize if I have not answered anyone personally yet, I will do so. Organizing any work is the most difficult and responsible issue related to people and their functions in PSP, therefore it requires the most effort and time. Therefore, my promised paragraphs, due to these problems, may be delayed by 1-2 days, no more, and I will inform you about my delays. Best wishes for success to our PSP, Leo 30-10-24 -------------------------------
Tension as push of thought Dear coauthors peacemakers, Due to the extreme tension of the presidential elections, we postpone all other issues until November 7th, when their outcome will be known. We send you for thought the banner of our "Peace Science Primer" (PSP), above, which opens it and the structure of which in its main components is revealed in all paragraphs of the PSP: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224. Best wishes for your health and peace, Leo 01-11-24

Tension as push to think Dear peacemakers, The US elections extreme tension on the "garbage", nightmarish level of genocidal militaristic democracy reveals its inevitable collapse and turn to the culture and science of perpetual peace. only it ensures the survival of both America people and humanity. Glory to Almighty, Who prepared the victory in it, albeit with a minimal advantage, of the perpetual peace/life culture over the culture of war/death, starting since America and its dull Ukrainian sword: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=1086. The article about perpetual peace of Russia and Ukraine by Professor Matt Meyer, leader of the International Peace Research Association (IPRA), was published here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1225 and in the attachment. We send for thought about this culture the banner of our "Peace Science Primer" (PSP), which is revealed by its content here: https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1224. Best wishes for your health and perpetual peace, Leo 01-11-24 ----------------------------------
