Dear GHA Members and friends:

February 15, 2011 marks the sixth anniversary of the GHA. We are grateful for your continued support and solidarity and wish you health, happiness and harmony in your lives!

Let us briefly summarize the past year, our achievements and shortcomings, and define our role in the contemporary world situation. This was the first year of a harmonious civilization, born in 2009.

For the past year the number of the GHA members has increased by 70 people to 460. The number of the countries represented in the GHA has increased from 48 to 56. The number of pages added o­n our site, “Peace from Harmony” has increased from 290 to 330. The number of the site visits has increased by more than 500,000 to more than 2.2 million.

The GHA delegations participated in three major International Congresses: Sociology in Gothenburg (July 2010), Mathematics in Odessa (October 2010) and Spiritual Culture in Astana (October 2010). Reports of our participation in the congresses were published. These and similar conferences in the past year, in the general direction to harmony, is yet another confirmation of the birth of a harmonious civilization in 2009, which began immediately to know itself at the different layers of spiritual culture.

Another no less important activity undertaken by the GHA in the past year was the creation of its national offices in four countries: Ukraine, Liberia, Pakistan and Israel with Palestine. In total now, we have 6 branches. In addition, there is a preparation for the offices in Kazakhstan, Greece, India, Rwanda and Bulgaria.

The main thrust of our collective work is to collectively create the various projects of global harmony. We discussed and approved about 10 such projects, including 4 educational along with media publicity through television, translated in 10 languages. Our projects reflect the GHA mission – pave the conscious way for a harmonious civilization in which self-consciousness can come o­nly through an appropriate, harmonious education. Therefore, our focus is education. The principal significance of our Academies and Schools of Harmony lies in the fact that they appear o­n the boundary between the industrial and harmonious civilizations. They form the bridge of non-violent transition across the chasm between the two civilizations for different communities, regions and countries.

Lastyear,the GHAcontributedtoglobalpeaceof harmoniouscivilization, developinga Nuclear Zero project, which began in2009withan agreement between Russia and theUnited States, as well asthe Praguespeechof U.S. PresidentObama. The GHAmembersparticipatedinpeaceconferencesinTokyoand the MiddleEast,for the 65^th anniversary ofthe atomicbombings of Hiroshima andNagasaki.

With all the GHA successes accomplished in the past year, a major flaw was also noted. Unfortunately, our members are still deprived of the scientific knowledge of harmonious civilization and the ABC of global harmony. Without this knowledge, we cannot be successful in achieving our mission, especially in the educational projects. We cannot teach others the alphabet of harmony without first knowing it ourselves. Therefore, the knowledge of a harmonious civilization must now be the first requirement for each member of the GHA. This is especially important in today's aggravating situation of regional and global tensions, which can be defused o­nly through the knowledge of social harmony embodied in the educational, informational and political institutions. Social harmony can o­nly be based o­n this knowledge and relevant institutions, the need of which is growing rapidly in the modern world.

During the last several weeks we witnessed massive waves of protests and riots in Tunisia and Egypt that have expanded, like an epidemic, to other countries in the region such as Algeria, Yemen and Jordan. Most analysts are predicting increasingly more confrontations and conflicts, not o­nly in the Arab countries, but in the entire world. Therefore, an institution such as GHA, which provides the greatest ideology to achieve a universal peace through harmony, is important and significant.

Prof. Ernesto Kahan*, the 1st GHA Vice President wrote in 2010, “Our civilization never, in all its history, was under two real opposed feasibilities. o­n the o­ne hand, through slow destruction of the environment by the use of atomic weapons, it faces the possibility to completely exterminate the life o­n Earth. o­n the other hand, through the necessary level of development that the human society has reached, it is now possible to totally eliminate hunger in the world-what seemed incredible just few years ago-and also to achieve a universal contract of harmony that will assure the peaceful relationship among the countries. But, what does harmony mean? For me harmony is the state of equilibrium among the components of a system that by nature tend to entropy. Harmony should be the basis for the peaceful coexistence among nations and political agreements. Harmony can never be eternal and complete, but is essential in the present stage of our civilization if mankind have to survive.”

At this crucial time in the history of humankind, the GHA is a key institution which offers means to achieve peace from harmony. In the face of the multitudes of local and regional confrontations, it is necessary to explore the real possibility to achieve peace.Thus far the conflicts have been mitigated through hegemony, or in other words, defeating the enemy.Continuing this trend to resolve global tensions would result in irreparable universal catastrophe.

At the entrance of the new millennium, when the prevalent ideologies were at odds with reality, arose GHA, a new world civic institution, which offers to humanity the necessary philosophical and political ideology for the continuity of civilization and social progress through harmony o­n the way to global peace.

We welcome you in the dialogues for peace from harmony!

We congratulate you for a successful year in harmony and many thanks for your contributions in it!

Harmonious civilization

Congratulations o­n the GHA 6^th anniversary

February 12 – 20, 2011

During the last weeks we were witnesses of massive waves of protests and riots in Tunisia and Egypt that have been extended, like an epidemic, to other countries in the region such as Algeria, Yemen and Jordan. Thus, every day and every minute of an institution as GHA, which have the greatest ideology to achieve a universal peace through harmony, is important and significant.

Global Harmony Association is a key institution at this historical crucial time of humankind in which it is indispensable to achieve peace from harmony.

The unique approach that remains is to achieve some harmonic agreement among the parts.

Just at the entrance of the new millennium, when the prevalent ideologies entered in contradiction with reality, arises GHA, as the result of the initiative of Dr. Leo Semashko, Director of the Tetrasociological Institute and the Founder and President of Global Harmony Association. This last Institution is at the moment, the o­ne that offers to humanity the necessary philosophical and political ideology for the continuity of civilization and social progress in peace.

Congratulations GHA!
