In 1990-1993 he was the deputy of the City Parliament (Lensovet/Petrosovet) and president-founder of the Children's Foundation of name Fyodor Dostoevsky, which developed in 1991 the first in Russia "Family Code" from the first chapter o­n the rights of children. This code was used in the preparation of the Constitution and the Family Code of the Russian Federation. He participated in many international congresses and conferences in sociology, philosophy, religion, education and peacemaking not o­nly in Russia but also in China, India, Kazakhstan, Sweden, South Africa, Malaysia, Norway, Italy and Australia. He is author of over 400 scientific publications o­n these subjects, including 17 books in several languages. In 2005, he created the GHA, an international peacemaking organization with the mission of "Peace from Harmony", the activity of which is presented in more detail below.

Leo Semashko’s peacemaking activity

We all know for a long time Leo Semashko as confirmed peacemaker, who has devoted his life to selfless service to the great goal of global peace. The source of this service began with suffering mother in 1941 under the Nazi bombing o­n the western border of Russia. The mother stories about the war horrors inspired Leo to search answer to a question about the possibility of freeing society from all wars that brought him to the Faculty of Philosophy and the way of hard innovative research in this field for over 40 years. Especially fruitful, scale and in fully aware, this activity was embodied in the establishment and active work of GHA from 2005 to the present.

Leo Semashko created GHA for mission of building world peace under the slogan "Peace from Harmony", which expresses the essence of his peacemaking: the source of peace is, and can o­nly be social harmony in all its infinite cultural manifestations, as evidenced by him in his scientific works involving great historical and cultural material of different civilizations. Social harmony in his understanding - it is a deep spiritual core of all culture that, in fact, coincides with the Roerich understanding and develops it. GHA is now unites more than 600 individual members from 65 countries and about 30 collective members with a total of up to a million people. GHA has regional offices not o­nly in Russia but also in Kazakhstan, India, Ukraine, USA, Latin America and Africa. Together with members of the GHA, he created a powerful information portal of the same name "Peace from Harmony» (http://peacefromharmony.org/), which now has more than two thousand pages and is published in 16 languages, of which the main o­nes are Russian and English. The number of visits to the site during its existence is closer to 7 million.

GHA for more than 10 years of active international peacemaking activity under the leadership of Leo Semashko and o­n his initiative created 50 peacemaking projects and has published eight books. Their list is published here: http://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=496. The most significant of these projects is an unprecedented book "Global Peace Science," first published in Russia in January 2015 and is not o­nly dedicated to the 10th anniversary of the GHA, but also the 80th anniversary of the “Nicholas Roerich Pact” and other international peace dates. Currently, Leo Semashko completes editing and translation into English of this unique book, to be published in January 2016 in India and USA.

Leo Semashko is the Board member of many international peace organizations: International Association of Educators for World Peace (USA), Vice-President of the Academy for Global Peace, India; and others. He is recognized as "Honorary Doctor of Philosophy" of Global Peace Academy, India; "Ambassador of Peace" in Cycle peacemakers, Geneva; "Messenger of Peace" of Women's International Coalition for the Culture of Peace (Israel) and other peace organizations.

Semashko’s peacemaking ideas are actively introduced in educational institutions (schools, colleges and universities) of Russia, India, Argentina, Rwanda, Ghana, Nepal and other countries. In New Ladoga High School the honored teacher of primary school Kuskovskaya Svetlana, Vice-president of GHA several years spends in the classroom the lessons and entire courses o­n peace and harmony as a source of peace. The tutorials o­n these lessons are the GHA books: "Harmonious Era Calendar" (2006), "Harmonious Civilization" (2009), "The ABC of Harmony" (2012), "Global Peace Science" (2015) and others created at the initiative and under the direction of Leo Semashko.

We express our general opinion of the individual and collective members of the GHA by our recommendation Leo Semashko at the Nicholas Roerich International Prize in this category. o­nly a small part of its listed peacemaking merits and achievements shows the deep reasonableness of our representation of Semashko to this Award. He has earned its with selfless, disinterested (he never received any payment for his long and active peacemaking) and dedicated spiritual service throughout his adult life to the great cause of achieving global peace, which, like the great service Roerich, confirms, strengthens and develops peacemaking entity of Russia.

His spiritual inclination and High Studies made of him a real Peacemaker and a founder of the Science of TetraSociology to understand Harmony of the world. Creator and searcher of many theories during all his life to reach a Harmonious Civilization he developed a honest brilliant theory about the harmony of four spheres of society, it is published in “Peace from Harmony” web site (http://peacefromharmony.org/), among important intellectuals of this time. Peace from harmony is the feature of Leo’s work. His very creative understanding of human life comes from his tetradic way of thinking – TetraSociology, which starts of the ancient philosophy.

6.Letter of support to nominate Dr. Leo Semashko for

International Roerich Prize for Peacemaking

For almost half century, Dr. Leo Semashko from Russia spent most of his time to promote stability, harmony and peace o­n a global scale. To this end, he wrote several articles and quite a few books. In the process, he made six discoveries from his tetra-sociology work as to validate his six scientific theories. Here they are:

The first o­ne deals with the various classes of the population as initiators of social harmony. Their spontaneous actions lead them to comprehend social harmony. The second o­ne deals with the concept of democracy that carries distribution of power among all the various classes of people. Children's priorities are seriously considered. The third o­ne connects with the area of statistics, which deal with needed quantitative measures for the eventual projection of social harmony. The fourth o­ne covers the area of information technology. The fifth o­ne deals with peace-making, socio-cultural and religious diversity, while the sixth o­ne covers strategic management and control as to guarantee harmonious governments at all levels.

These six important items are bound to bring about the various effective elements in the creation of global peace from harmony (www.peacefromharmony.org). The Global Harmony Association (GHA), which was initiated by Dr. Semashko, approached initially 12 governments for the eventual creation of Harmony Academies. They were: China, Kazakhstan, Singapore, Malaysia, India, Argentina, Algeria, Rwanda, Russia, France, England and Tunisia, in addition later to the European Union (EU) and the United Nations (UN) along with UNESCO.

In view of this, we may fully understand why Dr. Semashko emerged as a global leader of social harmony and global peace. This explains fully well why he emerged to become very important as to be serious considered for the International Roerich Prize for Peacemaking. For more information you may secure an article about him entitled: Global Leader of Social Harmony, from mercieca@knology.net

7.Letter of support by Surendra Pathak, Ph.D.

Dear Members of International Roerich Prize.

It is my pleasure to give my support for the nomination of Dr. Leo Semashko for the Roerich Prize in “Peacemaking”, whose life from the beginning was light, love and proposal to create peace and harmony in the world. As a torch-bearer of Universal Peace, Dr. Leo Semashko is a peacemaker par excellence. His spiritual inclination and high studies made of him a real peacemaker, a founder of the Tetra-Sociology Science to understand harmony of society. Creator and searcher of many theories during all his life to reach a Harmonious Civilization he developed a brilliant theory about the harmony of four social spheres published in “Peace from Harmony” web site (http://peacefromharmony.org) among important intellectuals of this time.

Peace from harmony is the center of Leo’s work. His very creative understanding of human life and the way it is lived in community comes from a tetradic way of thinking or Tetra-Sociology. He treads the path of the ancient philosophers with their four dimensional ideas.

As Founder and President of Global Harmony Association (GHA), since 2005, Dr. Leo Semashko is aggressively promoting and devoting his life for upholding universal Peace from Harmony. His quest for imparting the concept of peace reflect in many prominent books brought out under the banner of GHA, viz., Global Civilization (2009), The ABC of Harmony (2012) and so o­n, represented in many languages. In January of 2015 Dr. Semashko published a book of world importance “Global Peace Science” with the help of the GHA coauthors from 30 countries. This edition is in Russian but an English version will be published in 2016.

His ideas and responsibility for the wellbeing of humanity and the future of children is global. I am sure he merits this Prize as mentor of ideals of peace based in Peace Science within culture of spiritual concord.

8.To: Committee of Nicholas Roerich Prize

Dear Madam/Dear Sir:

For this year’s Nicholas Roerich Prize, category “Peacemaking”, I would like to recommend Dr. Leo Semashko, President of the Global Harmony Association (GHA).

For the first time I met L. Semashko in 2002, at the Brisbane Congress of the International Association (ISA) and later at the following Congresses in 2006 and 2010. I’ve been much impressed with his personality and his theory of Tetra-sociology: Responses to Challenges, Saint Petersburg, 2002, as well as with his numerous publications as founder of the Global Harmony Association (GHA), an Internet action group. It is beyond doubt that he is a leading and tireless activist for the promotion of world peace.

Sincerely yours.

(My dear friend Reimon,
I am very happy your letter of support from Japan, below - thank you very much!
I well remember our meetings at the ISA Congress since Brisbane, Australia, 2002 and our long discussions about Tetrasociology, which is now transformed into our Global Peace Science .... Best wishes for your health!
Best wishes for peace from harmony based o­n science, cordially yours, Leo, 16/09/15)

9.RE: Letter of Recommendation for Dr. Leo Semashko --

Roerich Prize in category of Peacemaking

It has come to my attention that Dr. Leo Semashko is being considered for the International Roerich Prize for "Peacemaking." I write to endorse his nomination for this honor.

As a psychologist and peace activist, I must say that our interactions regarding establishing a peaceful world have been candid, stimulating, and meaningful.

I am an American. He is Russian. Yet we share a firm belief that there are means available to take the world out of danger, and indeed, to replace the current geopolitical war system with a global peace system.

Dr. Semashko, president and founder of the Global Harmony Association (GHA), has published an important body of work both by himself, and from a variety of peace experts analyzing various conflicts globally, and showing how peace could be attainable.

GHA's many international contacts, and Dr. Semashko's emphasis o­n a scientific dialog for peace, is an important emphasis and focus, and deserves to be expanded -- the sooner the better.

In conclusion, I believe that Dr. Semashko has shown the qualities that would make him an excellent candidate to be awarded the Roerich Prize in Peacemaking. Public recognition of his work can o­nly serve to advance what we all so desperately desire: a chance for a world at peace.

(Dear Roger,

Many thanks for your profoundletter of peace support!

The main our common idea and mission is "to replace the current geopolitical war system with a global peace system" as you excellently expressed it. It is absolute truth for us, for the peoples of Russia and USA, for all the peoples but not for all ruling elites and governments.

We, GHA go to this mission through Global Peace Science (GPS: www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=585), through education in GPS and through discovery of SPHERONS - universal harmonious classes of population (instead the antagonistic partial classes of Marx) as the objective (but spontaneous) actors of global peace, which are transform in the conscious actors through peace education in GPS. You go to this mission through your peace Constitution of Earth. We must unite them: the Earth Constitution should be Constitution of Earth SPHERONS and SPHERONS should find their own Constitution in it. This way could unite us and reinforce us. It is our common future way. We are very happy to this peace intellectual union but at the same time revolutionary alliance in the spirit of non-violent resistance Gandhi.

Many thanks also for wonderful letters of support to Prof. Dr. Gopala Krishnan and Prof. Dr. Sharifah Sabrina from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and to Mr. Heli HABYARIMANA from RWANDA-AFRICA.

With love, best wishes for peace from harmony based o­n science, Leo 28/08/15)

10.Re: Letter of Support for Dr. Leo Semashko, for Nicholas Roerich Annual International Prize

Dear Sir / Madam,

I hereby write in support of Dr. Leo Semashko’s nomination for the Roerich Prize in the category – “Peacemaking.”

My support is based o­n Dr. Leo Semashko’s distinctive contributions to development of a scientific perspective o­n global peace with roots in his Tetrasociology. In this direction he founded GHA (Global Harmony Association) that is propagating the idea of ‘Peace for Harmony’. This represents a paradigm shift in human thought from the worldviews rooted in ‘geopolitical war systems’ to ‘global peace system’. In this direction, he has published many articles (more than 400) and books (16). His book, “Global Peace Science” (2015) is a distinctive contribution to literature o­n Global Peace.  

I had the honor of offering a Workshop o­n Peace, at Indus Business Academy, Greater Noida, India in October 2013. I greatly cherish his deep insights and action orientation in putting his ideas into practice. I feel delighted in recommending Dr. Leo Semashko for Nicholas Roerich Annual International Prize in peacemaking.

13.Letter of support by Dr. Hilarie Roseman, Australia

I wish to support the nomination of Dr. Leo Semashko by the Global Harmony Association President for the Roerich Prize in “Peacemaking”.

I have known Leo for more than ten years, and was with him as he began to put together his web site “Peace from Harmony” (http://peacefromharmony.org/). It is amazing that from 2 to 5 thousand people visit this site now every day. I remember that I helped him conceive the website with the dove flying down to help the man and woman and their child achieve harmony. Peace from harmony is the feature of Leo’s work. His very creative understanding of human life and the way it is lived in community comes from a tetradic way of thinking, which he calls TetraSociology. He treads the path of the ancient philosophers with their four dimensional ideas. We have four cognitive abilities, sense, knowledge, opinion and sentiment. There are four elements, earth, water, air and fire and as Anaxagoras (500-428BC) says the principle of mutual inclusion (interinclusion) of the foundation of the world are explained as “all in everything” which Semashko says is the basic principle of TetraSociology.

In January of 2015 Dr. Semashko published a book “Global Peace Science”. It includes all his new thoughts, and was written with the help of his members, who now come to 600 individual members from 65 countries. This edition is in Russian, but an English version will be published in 2016.

Dr, Leo Semashko is my friend, and I am very pleased to be able to add my name to all the people who will nominate him for the Roerich Prize in “Peacemaking”. I pray that the flying dove will continue to bring the hope of peace with the many years of work that has gone into this global peace science.

I pray for you and your work, I light a candle for you every Sunday, love Hilarie, Australia, 26/08/15

Dearest Hilarie,

We are very glad to your successful surgery to remove your cancer and pray this operation had o­nly positive aftermaths! We cooperate with you for more than 11 years, admire and are proud of you! You have made a huge contribution to the GHA peacemaking activity. Your remarkable drawings for a long time are published o­n our website: http://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=77 and http://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=ru_c&key=34. Your logo of GHA with the Holy Spirit of peace from harmony as Divine Symbol of Harmonious Civilization for a long time decorates the main page of our site "Peace from Harmony": http://peacefromharmony.org. You turned 90 years old, if I'm not mistaken, but you had doctorate in theology, in harmony of Abrahamic religions of Judaism, Islam and Christianity, paint and scientific work in the spirit of peacemaking. You are a brilliant example of the personal peace from harmony in distant Australia. Your selfless Christian service to peace is especially important today, especially important for the world and Russia, where o­n its doorstep and the western border going back the forces of war but now the US/NATO aggressive block..... God! Save us from the new, nuclear war! Our "Global Peace Science" from harmony gives us hope that humanity has the indestructible peace potential of the eternal harmonious classes of the population – humanity SPHERONS, we are discussing with you for 11 years and for which you have offered remarkable artistic images. Thank you very much for your strong support and a flattering letter for the great spiritual Roerich Prize. I pray for you. With love, Leo, 26/08/15)

14.Re: Letter of Support for Dr. Leo Semashko, for Nicholas Roerich Annual International Prize

Dear Sir / Madam,

I hereby write in support of Dr. Leo Semashko’s nomination for the Roerich Prize in the category – “Peacemaking.”

My support is based o­n my personal opinion for Dr. Leo Semashko, as a well-known person for his - years now - real activities for the goals of Global Peace, as he has devoted his whole life for this main humanity problem, by producing and proposing solutions, like the GHA common idea and mission, which is "to replace the current geopolitical war system with a global peace system", and the already published o­n January 2015 into Russia language GHA 8^th book titled, “Global Peace Science” (now is about ending its English translation with target to be published o­n January 2016).

Dr. Leo Semashko, a man with ideals and human values, is the Founder and President of Global Harmony Association (GHA) under the slogan “Peace for Harmony”, in which I have the honor to be co-founder and Vice President of GHA. All these years GHA is active under his safe and fecund leadership with 600 individuals members from 65 countries, resulting 50 peacebuilding projects and 8 books. His life work, and mainly his ideas and actions for the “Global Harmony”, the “disarmament” and the “Global Peace” express the aspirations of too many Peace Builders globally, and all of us who follow and support him all these years.

Dr. Leo Semashko raises his chest dimensionless and courageous against the fogy conditions which prison and gag the Peace worldwide. His belief is that the time has been arrived for humanity to break the spiritual and materialistic fetters, their icy grip of indifference and abandonment, to unfold freely, normally and naturally, and give the fruitful contribution to the development of the Global Tree of Peace.

I do not hesitate to say, without exaggeration that his robustness, his mental strength and moral grandeur view as the most necessary elements for the constructivists and the founders of the requirement of billions of mankind aspiring to build Global Peace.

For all above, o­n my opinion, Dr. Leo Semashko merits the Nicholas Roerich Annual International Prize in peacemaking.

22.Letter of Support for the Consideration of Dr.LeoSemashkofor Nicholas Roerich Prize in the category of Peacemaking Committee for the Selection of Nicholas Roerich Peace Prize:

Each o­ne of us is a product of o­ne’s upbringing in their family and social conditions, prevailing economic and political systems, and personal experiences in life. Correspondingly, we grow up with inherent biases that may impact true assessment of reality. However all human beings have innate ability to distinguish between the right and the wrong.

The right course of action to begin to reverse the present state of the world of the Haves and the Have-nots; the Haves imbued in greed, hypocrisy, lies and self-promotion and the Have-nots comprising the poor, the sick, the illiterate, all marginalized to such an extent as to meaningfully participate in their societies, is to reform our social structures.

Dr. Leo Semashko has worked tirelessly in expounding the principles that contribute to social harmony reflected in his lifelong works in developing the theory of Tetrasociology for social structures. Since the time I’ve known Leo in Kuala Lumpur in 2008, I’ve observed him to be devoted to the cause of peace and harmony regardless of his poor health. His notable works are founding Global Harmony Association through which he connected with like-minded professionals and academicians, publishing the various books o­n Harmony, which illustrate the application of Tetrasociology, and his present undertaking to write, edit, and publish a book, “Global Peace Science.”

In view of the above background, it is my honor to endorse Dr.LeoSemashko for the RoerichPrize in the category of "Peacemaking."

Dear Sir:

I would like to recommend Dr. Leo Semashko for the Roerich Price under the category of "Peacemaking".

I have known Dr. Semashko personally for many years. I have always felt very much inspired by his philosophical and sociological vision of and dedication to world peace. He has inspired theoretically as well as practically with his vision of peace many good people in many countries. He has been a great messenger of peace. He has greatly inspired me personally as well as my many colleagues in my international course o­n the "Future of Religion" in the IUC Dubrovnik, Croatia, as well as in my international course o­n "Religion in Civil Society" in Jalta, Republic of Crimea.

Dr. Leo Semashko has become worldwide known through his TetraSociology and Theory, which aims at harmony in all parts and o­n all levels of modern systems of human condition and human action systems. He has spread his Tetra Theory through his tireless GHA efforts. In his work he has emphasized the role of spirituality, and religion, and morality. He has worked for the internal as well as the external peace of the people. Through his vision and mission he has become a true and most active citizen of the world in the sense of the greatest enlightener - Immanuel Kant.

Therefore, I most strongly recommend Dr. Semashko as a candidate for the Nicholas Roerich Annual International Price.

Выдвижения кандидатуры Президента ГСГ

Льва Михайловича Семашко на присуждение ему

Международной Премии имени

Николая Рериха за 2015 год

Я, президент Ноосферной общественной академии наук, вице-президент Петровской академии наук и искусств, профессор, доктор философских наук, доктор экономических наук, кандидат технических наук, Заслуженный деятель науки РФ, Лауреат премии Правительства РФ, Гранд-доктор философии и Полный профессор (по Оксфордской образовательной сети) СУБЕТТО АЛЕКСАНДР ИВАНОВИЧ

ПОДДЕРЖИВАЮ

выдвижение Льва Михайловича Семашко, видного общественного деятеля и социолога, президента ГСГ – общественной глобальной организации, устремленной в своей деятельности на установление мира и гармонии на Земле, на присуждение ему Международной Премии имени Николая Рериха по номинации «Миротворчество». ГСГ создана по инициативе и при активном участии Л.М.Семашко десять лет назад и к настоящему времени объединяет более 600 индивидуальных членов из 65 стран мира. По его инициативе было разработано 50 миротворческих проектов и опубликовано 8 международных монографий, раскрывающих миротворческие идеологию и механизмы.

Знаю Льва Михайловича Семашко давно и считаю его, оценивая все, что он сделал для утверждения мира и гармонии на Земле, достойным присуждения этой знаковой и значимой Премии, носящей имя великого русского ииндийского мыслителя-космиста-художника Николая Константиновича Рериха.

25.О Т З Ы В

Лев Михайлович Семашко широко известен в социологической науке более чем полвека. Его научные труды получили распространение среди ученых России и других стран. Особое внимание привлекла его активная научная и организационная деятельность в области исследования социальной Гармонии. «Азбука Гармонии» опубликована при руководстве Льва Семашко в соавторстве со многими учеными из целого ряда государств. Она занимает свое достойное место среди изданных монографий и статей.

Недавно опубликована фундаментальная книга «Наука глобального мира», в подготовку и написание которой огромный вклад внес Лев Семашко. Книга эта уникальная по составу авторов и своему содержанию.

Хорошо известен ряд его инициатив по сохранению мира на нашей земле. Могут быть разные подходы к этой животрепещущей проблеме, но актуальность и особое значение целевой направленности его деятельности нельзя не признавать. По его инициативе и активному участию был создан Глобальный Союз Гармонии.

Я выражаю уверенность, что кандидатура Льва Семашко достойна для присуждения ему высокой Премии Рериха.

С наилучшими пожеланиями Гармонии,

ПОДДЕРЖИВАЮ

Выдвижение Льва Михайловича Семашко, известного социолога и общественного деятеля, президента ГСГ – общественной организации, поставившей своей благородной и гуманистической целью содействие установлению мира и гармонии на нашей планете, на присуждение ему Международной Премии имени Николая Рериха по номинации «Сохранение культурных ценностей и миротворчество».

Созданная десять лет тому назад Львом Михайловичем Семашко международная миротворческая организация (ГСГ), к настоящему времени объединяет несколько сот индивидуальных членов из шестидесяти пяти стран мира. Под его руководством было разработано пятьдесят миротворческих проектов и опубликовано восемь международных монографий, раскрывающих пути и механизмы становления гармонии и мира на Земле.

Знаю Льва Михайловича Семашко около сорока лет, считаю его выдающимся социологом, философом, мыслителем и организатором различных общественных объединений, одним из участников которых был и автор данного письма. Считаю Семашко Л.М., объективно оценивая всё то, что он сделал для утверждения мира и гармонии на нашей планете, достойным присуждения Премии, названной в честь одного из самых ярких людей ХХ столетия, великого художника, автора семи тысяч полотен, путешественника, археолога, писателя и создателя оригинальной философии, борца за мир и сохранение культурно-исторического наследия человечества, нашего великого соотечественника, Николая Константиновича Рериха.

27.Письмо поддержки кандидатуры Льва Михайловича Семашко, Президента Глобального Союза Гармонии (ГСГ), проживающего по адресу: 194356, ул. Хошимина, 7-4-42, Санкт-Петербург, Россия, на Премию Николая Рериха в объявленной номинации «Сохранение культурных ценностей и миротворчество».

Учреждение Премии Николая Рериха - яркий пример воздания заслуженного уважения и желания сохранить в памяти землян деятельность этого Великого Гражданина Мира. Знание им истории, многочисленные археологические раскопки, "хождения по русской старине" помогли Рериху по-новому отобразить в своем творчестве образ родной природы и ступени развития тысячелетней истории русского народа. Исследуя древнерусское искусство, Н.К. Рерих всерьёз заинтересовался вопросом переселения народов и взаимовлиянием культур.

Своеобразное мировоззрение Н.К.Рериха было основано на убеждении, что повышением духовной культуры масс можно преобразить жизнь на земле, победить невежество, пошлость, войны. Как просто и в то же время проникающе сильно звучат его слова: "Там где культура, там и мир... Пока культура лишь роскошь,... она еще не перестроит жизнь. Культура должна войти в ближайший, каждодневный обиход как хижины, так и дворца". Большое значение в деле сотрудничества между народами сыграл так называемый "Пакт Рериха", предусматривающий охрану памятников культуры всего человечества. В 1954 году в Гааге на основе пакта подписан акт Международной конвенции о защите культурных ценностей в военное время.

Лев Михайлович Семашко, по моему глубокому убеждению, в своей не простой, отданной служению людям жизни, удивительным образом обобщил и объединил созданные человечеством на протяжении столетий интеллектуальные достижения в области науки и культуры, сложив их, с добавлением собственных вариантов построения гармоничного, цивилизованного мира, в Азбуку Гармонии (АГ) и Науку Глобального Мира (НГМ). При этом ему удалось сплотить представителей многих стран в структуре Глобального Союза Гармонии, а значительная часть из них осознанно стала соавторами АГ и НГМ. Но главное - Л.М. Семашко продолжил миссию Н.К. Рериха в сохранении культурных ценностей и миротворчестве.

Безусловно, полную оценку деяниям любого человека даёт История. Великий русский поэт С. Есенин в "Письме к женщине" ещё в 1924 году сказал так:

"Лицом к лицу

Лица не увидать.

Большое видится на расстоянье.

Когда кипит морская гладь,

Корабль в плачевном состоянье.

Земля - корабль!

Но кто-то вдруг

За новой жизнью, новой славой

В прямую гущу бурь и вьюг

Её направил величаво".

Уверен, что уже сегодня нельзя не заметить соответствия содержания плодотворной деятельности Л.М. Семашко объявленным требованиям Премии Н.К. Рериха. Поэтому я искренне рекомендую кандидатуру Президента ГСГ Льва Михайловича Семашко на присвоение ему Международной Премии имени Николая Рериха в 2015 году в номинации «Сохранение культурных ценностей и миротворчество». Считаю, что именно в таком, всеобъемлющем соединении понятий в номинации, ещё более весомой видятся и работа ГСГ, и значение НГМ, и бесспорно, заслуживающая уважения и внимания подвижническая роль Льва Михайловича Семашко.
