V. GHA GC Proposals to the Government of India

as an addition to its Jubilee program

1. To declare 2019 as the “World Year of Gandhi Nonviolence” or "World Gandhi Year" and approve this initiative at the UN General Assembly and UNESCO in February.

2. To create in Feebruary/March in the Government of India a “Jubilee Gandhi Commission” (JGC) from the representatives of humanitarian ministries (50%) and Indian NGOs (50%) with a leading role in them the GHA GC to prepare anniversary programs and organize culminating Jubilee Congresses in Delhi in the Lotus Temple with a capacity of 2500 people.

3. The working time of the JGC in 2019 should be divided into two main parts: 1. Preparatory stage: January – June and 2. Culmination stage: July – December.

4. Culminating World Jubilee Congresses in Delhi, in the Lotus Temple in six vectors:

4.1. Educational: "Universal School of Gandhi Nonviolence/Peace" - July.

4.2. Humanitarian science: “Gandhi's Nonviolence and its Science Development” - August.

4.3. Religious: "Interfaith Harmony of Gandhi Nonviolence" - September.

4.4. Women's: "Women's equality and Gandhi Nonviolence" - October.

4.5. Peacemaking: “Gandhi Nonviolence as Global Peace” - November.

4.6. Political: “India, BRICS and the UN as the Centers for Gandhi Nonviolence Initiation” – December.

         Under the Mr. Modi, PM of India leadership, the geopolitical culmination of the “Gandhi World Year” in India could be a meeting with Ms. Ela Gandhi, the granddaughter of Mahatma Gandhi and the government reception of the heads of states and the “National Gandhi Commissions” with the participation of the GC Nobel Prize Laureates in Delhi o­n October 2, 2019 o­n the Gandhi birthday 150th anniversary in the Lotus Temple or in the newly built "Global Gandhi Temple/Center/Congress-Hall" (see below).

5.6. Establish in Delhi the International Laboratory of Innovative Science of Nonviolence (ILISN) Gandhi, providing its funding.

VI. Government of India:

key link in the preservation and use of the world Gandhi nonviolence heritage

The life and use of Gandhi's non-violence depends o­n the people and government of India. In the 20th century, non-violence became the necessary culture of the Indian people, developing and raising to an unprecedented height the traditional culture of non-violence in India since ancient times. Nonviolence Gandhi lives in the historical memory and traditions of the people of India. But over time, every good memory and tradition is corroded. They are always threatened with oblivion in disuse and neglect.

Only targeted systemic and long-term (indefinite) government efforts are able to resist such a destructive trend if it recognizes the decisive value of Gandhi's non-violence as the highest intellectual and moral wealth not o­nly of the nation and culture of India, but of all humanity. From the government of India, in the first place, depends o­n the preservation of this world heritage, its deep knowledge, understanding, mastery and widespread international and global use in all spheres of social life of humankind.

The GHA innovative Project is designed primarily to inspire, initiate and convince the government of India of the need for a long-term systemic strategy for the preservation and development of the world heritage of non-violence at the new historical, cultural, scientific, educational level that is proposed by our project. If this project does not find the support of the Government of India, then it will remain the marginal fate of stagnation o­n the outskirts of public consciousness and attention. Its preservation and life can be ensured in this case o­nly by rare and dedicated individual enthusiasts, as it has been until now.

The GHA GC hopes that its project “Gandhi Committee” with its proposals to the government of India will find in it both understanding, support, development, and practical implementation. Our innovative project is a call of the government of India, which we hope will be heard in it.

VII. The historical value of non-violence Gandhi.

The danger of forgetting and not using it in the 21st century

Gandhi's non-violence is the infinite sociocultural cosmos of humanity, its global achievement and wealth. This is an intellectual universe of ideas, knowledge and intuition, relating to all spheres and aspects of human life. Gandhi owns a unique, incomparable historical example of a colossal non-violent political change without a single shot, without a single drop of blood and without a single victim, unlike tens of millions of victims of empires and tyrants of past centuries. Gandhi's non-violence has nothing to compare with. This is a o­ne of a kind peak. Gandhi's nonviolence is an unattainable intellectual and moral top, inaccessible energy and an unrecognized saving genome of humanity, before which it stands in amazement for over 70 years, not understanding it and not knowing what to do with it, how to use it and not lose it. The legacy of Gandhi's non-violence is multidimensional, polyphonic, harmonious, multi-colored and pluralistic, excluding any o­ne-dimensionality, o­ne-sidedness, narrowness and monism typical to violence, war and militarism. Gandhi's nonviolence is universal, whole and integral. It connects all people and constitutes their eternal problem at all levels and in all spheres, starting with family and municipal government. Nonviolence is inherent in the social nature, in its spheral structure, in its genome and genetics, which Gandhi well felt with his brilliant intuition and about which he wrote a lot, but did not reach its theoretical, scientific understanding and explanation. But most importantly, he used it with great success in the long-term non-violent liberation of India from British rule.

The scale and depth of non-violence remain still unknown in its deep essence, in its genetic code and social origins. Therefore, the “law of non-violence as the law of our life,” which hides the “greatest force / energy of humanity” (Gandhi), remains inaccessible in its defining virtue of non-violence and therefore remains unused. Nonviolence is not available to traditional, narrow and fragmented knowledge and thinking. It requires their fundamentally different qualities - integrity and wholeness, which are provided by spheral, sociocybernetic thinking by spheres and spherons of social being and the social genome of human life. Nonviolence of human nature became available o­nly to spheral science and its paradigm of harmonious holistic tetranet thinking. Without it and similar intellectual tools adequate to the deep holistic nature of non-violence, it loses its meaning for traditional cognition, thinking and science, which put it o­n the verge of oblivion and the danger of renouncing it.

We are already confronted with fierce slander and the "fashionable" now sweeping criticism of Gandhism. In the militaristic world, they are built o­n exaggerating some of his private mistakes and personal flaws (as if they were somehow devoid of them), while completely ignoring his unique historical non-violence. Gandhi's non-violence is a bone in the throat of modern militarism, which tries to ignore it, but non-violence will strangle it in the end as Gandhi strangled British rule in India.

VIII. Sense of Gandhi Committee and Gandhi Project

           In the present situation of the great heritage of non-violence, the meaning of our Gandhi Committee and project is to focus o­n the intrinsic historical significance of the Gandhi non-violence heritage in different spheres and areas and find ways to master and use it to neutralize the dangers of forgetting it. Our GC is an innovative attempt to understand the pinnacle of non-violence and find ways to master the "greatest force/energy of non-violence" for all peoples in the name of their global peace, survival and prosperity. GC puts and tries to find scientific answers to relevant questions: Why is Gandhi's nonviolence the pinnacle of world achievements and wealth? Why is nonviolence not understood, unattainable and unused? Why is nonviolence the salvation and survival of humanity? How can it be understood and used by humanity? These and similar questions constitute the intellectual tasks of the new generations of our century.

           The anniversary of Gandhi is a wonderful, beautiful occasion to start in a new way to pose such fundamental questions and to offer innovative fundamental answers for them, formulated as a first approximation in our project for discussion during the week.

X. Epilogue. Future of the GHA project "Gandhi Committee"

          Under the conditions of the unconditional domination of militarism - a modern form of total violence, to a greater or lesser extent in all countries, it is difficult to hope for the GHA “Gandhi Committee” project recognition in 2019, although, as they say, “give God that we make a mistake”. At the same time, by name, spirit, and multinational and interfaith culture of Gandhi's non-violence, there are two countries in the world: India and Russia, more interested in the preservation, development and use of the Gandhi's non-violence heritage. If, however, their modern governments, according to the above-mentioned atmosphere of global militarism, will be unable to accept and recognize this project, then other governments, moreover, are unlikely to do so. Then, the world civil society can o­nly hope and wait for, in 5-10-20 years, new governments will come, capable of accepting and implementing our “Gandhi project”. There is no doubt that the need and necessity of global social non-violence (peace, harmony) for humanity will not go anywhere and will o­nly intensify in the conditions of the unrestrainedly growing total threat of militaristic violence.

         The decisive factor in the universal acceptance of the “Gandhi project” as an alternative to militarism will be the fundamental scientific evidence of the statistical researches of spherons (spheral harmonious classes of the population) as social sources of non-violence - “the greatest force of humanity” by definition of Gandhi, which has not yet been studied by science and is not used by society. The beginning of the system statistical researches of spherons was laid in the GHA, which is reflected in the third module, “Nonviolence Science” of the GHA project “Gandhi Committee”: http://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=857. o­nly the “International Laboratory of Innovative Science of Non-Violence” (ILISN) in Delhi or St. Petersburg with budget financing will be able to continue this research at the professional scientific level. It will certainly be created, sooner or later, because it will be a response to the global challenge of the need for a scientific understanding of the “greatest force” of social non-violence (peace, harmony), from the solution of which humanity will never go and anywhere.

          Here lies the source of unshakable optimism and heroic enthusiasm for Gandhi's non-violence in the GHA project proposed today in its future perspective. This is our optimistic epilogue for the future under the worst circumstances of today.
