Финал предательства. Хронология последних дней. Отвечать предателям истины, лжецам и лицемерам, а тем более
"дружить" с ними– много чести. My dear Leo, Good morning. I hope this finds you well. Thank you for your kind invitation. I value our friendship. I pray Nature and Divine for our friendship and for your good health and creative quest. I have read your letter. With respect, I wish to share that I am not able to write this invited article. I do not believe in any propaganda but the same time Russian invasion of Ukraine was not the only way for Russia and after this killing of the innocent baby all sides including Putin's Russia is a fact. We need to condemn both NATO aggression and Russian aggression including imprisonment and death of courageous and helpless human rights activists like Alexi by Putin's regime. I see total silence on this in GHA. With respect, without any personal imputed motive, I resign from GHA and I request you to kindly delete my personal webpage from GHA website. I pray that you kindly understand the spirit with which I am writing. I once again reiterate my commitment to our friendship. I also reiterate that NATO expansionism is wrong and the West and NATO should have negotiated with Russia but at the same time I condemn Russian invasion of Ukraine. With my love and prayers, Sincerely Yours Ananta. Mr. Ananta Kumar Giri, PhD Professor

But there is a substitution of invitation in it. I invite you to write not about the West-Biden propaganda zombie fake "Russian invasion of Ukraine", but about our friendship since 2004, since Beijing, and our cooperation during 21 years in the GGHA, albeit with long breaks. You began these wonderful memories in your outstanding book "Transformative Harmony" (https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=911) with these words: "Like many of us I have always been intuitively drawn to the call of harmony in life. My journey with the theme of harmony began with my meeting and unfolding friendship with Leo Semashko from St. Petersburg. We first met o-n the rooftop of a youth hostel in Beijing in July 2004 as both of us were staying there and taking part in World Congress of Sociology organised by International Institute of Sociology. Leo then started nurturing Global Harmony Association as a forum of like-minded friends and co-travelers from around the world to work, walk and meditate further with the calling of harmony. As part of this, I contributed an essay o-n transformative harmony to the book ABC of Harmony edited by Leo. I then shared this essay with many friends and we held a symposium o-n this theme in the form of a special issue in Gandhi Marg in 2013. Our present book builds upon this special issue with further participation of more contributors many of whom I met during my journey in different parts of the world who have brought their own unique contribution to this epochal challenge of our times. Now we present this gift of a much expanded discourse and exploration of harmony to all interested friends and to our striving Humanity. I dedicate this book to Leo Semashko, R. Sunder Rajan, Maulana Wahiduddin Khan, Lois Holzman and Johannes D. Schmidt. Leo has been nurturing the vision and practice of harmony with love, care and dedication for years…" And then in the book there are several more references to me and the GGHA. Many thanks for these words! I invite you to format it into a 2-page text and send it to me for publication in our Primer. If you write it, I will invite you to write another article in it on 2 pages, for example, about the varnas/spherons of Mahatma Gandhi or about the peacemaking concepts of Mahatma Gandhi and Sri Aurobindo comparison, to which you have dedicated a whole book. But this is the second. The first is your story with GGHA and with me since 2004. As for the propaganda fake "Russian invasion", now all honest politicians and true scientists who follow historical facts are forced to admit the truth, as even US President Trump did. The truth is that the NATO nuclear alliance has been expanding eastward for 30 years and approaching the borders of Russia, dragging in Bandera's Nazi-Russophobic Ukraine with its genocidal slogan "Destroy Russia, kill all Russians" (https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=1049), after the coup d'etat in Kyiv in 2014. Russia tolerated the Russian population genocide in Donbass for 8 years, depriving them of their language and all human rights, trying to achieve a peaceful solution in various negotiations in Minsk, Istanbul, etc. The West completely ignored it, armed and trained the Nazis of the Kyiv regime, which left Russia with no choice but to launch a "Special Military Operation" (SMO) to protect the Russian population of Donbass and eliminate the Ukrainian Nazi regime, similar to Hitler's. Russia lost 27 million victims in the destruction of the Hitler regime 80 years ago, so the Russian people do not want it to happen again, so they support the SMO and Putin by 95%. What do you have against this people's right to self-defense? If you are an honest scientist who trusts only facts and truth, and not a Western propagandist, then WHAT prevents you from studying these facts presented in hundreds of honest Western sources collected by us at the address above? WHAT? You know that the GGHA works according to the sacred principle of Gandhi: "Truth is God", therefore "TRUTH ALONE TRIUMPHS!", which became the state motto of India, therefore the publication of any fakes, any conscious lies, any zombifying propaganda in our, GGHA, books and projects is EXCLUDED. It is below our moral dignity, and we will NEVER stoop to it for anyone. Therefore, any of your similar texts will be rejected. But I still hope that you will prove yourself to be an honest and true scientist, as well as a long-standing wonderful friend-thinker who will not exchange truth and friendship for lies and cheap zombie propaganda. Or do you have motives and obligations unknown to me in this regard, in the form of lifelong dependence on Western grants, etc.? But in this case, your free choice remains yours. I hope you understood me well. I have sincerely and honestly outlined the situation regarding your question.

Chennai, December 24, 2019 Dear and Respected Friends, My best of regards and warm greetings to you. The same to family, friends and colleagues. I hope this finds you well. It is a joy for me to write to you, remember with gratitude our communications, sharing and friendship. To new friends in this letter it is a joy for me to send this letter to you. I wish you, and all of you, a Blessed Christmas and Creative and Transformative New Year in 2020. I am writing this letter to you sitting in this beautiful music concert in Music Academy in Chennai. I reached home from Pondicherry this morning around 2 AM and ran in the morning to be able to offer myself to this dance of music here in the Academy as well as other sabhas here in Chennai. I was present in an evening Christmas celebration two days ago in Pondicherry in a church. Being there I felt these lines singing in my heart: “Oh Angels, Open our Doors. Let us open our doors and windows to God, Christ and the Holy Spirit.” God, Christ and Spirit are our ever-nurturing co-travellers and nurturers and in this Christmas let us hear Their songs of love and care and embody love, care and fearlessness in the midst of many threats and violence of our times. As we offer ourselves to Lord Jesus Christ, we also take note of new challenges and possibilities of this year 2019 and embrace our coming year 2020 with love and courage. 2019 is the 100 years of the May 4th Movement of China which challenged feudalism and authoritarianism there and played an important role in the making of a new China as part of our connected new World. The great American philosopher John Dewey had visited China in 1919. Our Gurudev Rabindra Nath Tagore had also visited China in 1924 and like Dewey had held dialogues with Chinese thinkers, writers and concerned citizens. Today given our concerns about the rise of China especially its authoritarianism , we need to find ways for more dialogue and friendship with China. on my part, in a small and humble way, I am working with some co-travellers on these issues. I am editing two books onthese issues: Confucianism and Vedanta andSocial Theorizing in Contemporary China. The first book strives to look at possible resonances between Confucianism and Vedanta around issues of harmony and oneness and the second book tries to introduce the works of some contemporary thinkers from China such as Professor Tu Wei Ming who is inviting us to build dialogical and spiritual civilizations where ever we are and from the soils and souls of our own civilizations. This year is also the 150 years of the birth of Ba and Bapu—Kasturba and Mohan Das Karamchand Gandhi. Both Ba and Bapu were great seekers and fighters for Truth, Freedom and Justice. Their Satyagraha has a perennial significance. In our world today, especially in India, there is fear and terror partly produced by our ruling establishment and let us find ways of overcoming fear and continue Satagraha through mutual love, support and political, social and spiritual mobilization. Here we can remember Ba, Bapu, Kha Abdul Gaffar Khan and Jai Prakash Narayan and realize that no power and State are more powerful than our souls, mutual strength, and God and Nature and let us raze these rising structures of authoritarianism and create gardens of love, dignity and dialogues in their places. We also remember here that 800 years ago in 1219 St Francis of Assisi from Assisi, Italy had walked all the way to meet the Sultan of Egypt Malik Al-Kamil during the Crusade and it was an important step towards dialogue and overcoming fear in the midst of the raging war of religions and Crusade of the time. I wish you a creative 2020. I just wish to share that in 2019 I have been engaged in some of the followingefforts.I travelled to Hong and Taiwan twice in February and April and had carried out research and dialogues with scholars there. I travelled in Sikkim, Ladakh, Punjab, Maharastra and other parts India and it was enriching for me to meet with many scholars and some activists. I have edited and co-edited the following books in this year: Practical Spirituality and Human Development: Alternative Experiments for Human Futures (Palgrave Macmillan, 2019), Transformative Harmony (Delhi: Studera, 2019) and The Essays of Chitta Ranjan Das on Literature, Culture and Society: on the Side of Life in Spite Of (co-edited with Ivan Marequez, Cambridge Scholars Press, 2019). I am also editing a special issue in Gandhi Marg on Mahatma Gandhi and Sri Aurobindo which is coming out in January 2020. I am also editing two volumes on Pragmatism, Spirituality and Society: Border Crossings, Transformations and Planetary Realizations which are in press with Palgrave Macmillan and another on Cross-Fertilizing Roots and Routes: Identities, Social Creativities, Cultural Regeneration and Planetary Realizations, also With Palgrave Macmillan. I am also preparing a book of mine on The Calling of Global Responsibility for Routledge and another book in India called Bahudarha Barnabiva: The Splendour and Beauty of The Many. I have written the following articles in this year among others which may interest you: “Life Worlds and Living Words” (Social Change, April 2019) and “Cultivating New Circles and Movementsof Meaning Generation: Upholding Our World, Regenerating Our Earth and the Calling of a Planetary Lokasamgraha” (Journal of Human Values, Nov 2019), Rupantarakari Sanhati (Shree, a journal from Odisha, Oct 2019) and Ehi Alokasnanata Pruthibi (This Light Bathed World) (Bartika, Oct 2019). I once again wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I am sorry that I am writing this general letter to all of you but I send this to each one of you as a unique soul and kind friend and thank you for accepting my general letter as my personal letter. I am grateful to you for writing to me the story of your year and hopes for the new one and I am grateful to you for writing this to me and not the whole web. I share with you some of my poems for your perusal. Looking forward to hearing from you and meeting with you and with regards, Sincerely Yours Ananta.
