I think that one of the displays of world harmony is an art which forms the Spiritual Human. Poetry is the most democratic art form. The majority of sacred books of all religions are written in poetic form. There is a wonderful harmony of thought and feeling, of content and form in the best samples of poetry. Therefore it easily comes into soul being the first (after the Nature) school and the ABC of individual harmony (viiv.co.ua). Vitaliy Ivashchenko, Professor of National Technical University "Kyiv Polytechnic Institute", Poet, Culture Honoured Worker of Ukraine. Vitaliy Ivashchenko Harmony in Soul Live for today! What was and will be let not bother you. You'll be forgotten once you go into the blue, As if you've never made your way! Greet every dawn with brightest smile! And the Almighty thank for who you've met! Don't hang your head, don't whine!.. It is not over yet, Inside your soul there's still a flame of fire. Our values once have been outlined: Our goodness, tenderness, our will and peace. Live for today, let your heart sing at ease! And then the sense of life in harmony of soul you'll find!

Ada Aharoni Harmonious Cosmic Woman They tell us you were first born in warm ocean womb caressed by sun fingers – daughter perhaps of the stormy affair of two unruly atoms in love maddened by the solitude of eternal rounds in the steppes of times And your children, lively descendants of their stellar nucleus mother dropped from the sky in depths of ocean belly, born of green and brown seaweed and the laughs and cries of a blue bacteria Cosmic woman, when you chose earth as home for your vast roots at the beginning of the great human family, it was for life, for harmony – not for death! Cosmic woman, you, who were born of the nucleus, from deadly nuclear mushroom – save your chosen planet save your children! Prof. Ada Aharoni studied at London University, where she received her M.

In family harmony gets a start, In care of kindred and beloved, When our thoughts and prayers clear Come from the truths that we adhere. The streams of harmony, its springs Will find their way among the hills, Among the whispering canes that swing Together with the fields they sing. That harmony is like a rainbow, The drops of dew that beam, A way of an unlucky tear to its chance An outline separating land and water like a fence. That flawless harmony, It has no more, no less, It's like an equinox, that's blessed Its humble wisdom solves the rest. Though harmony in body has no face We know its value, name, and place. And when its Muse has fruit created, The union of Yin and Yang is celebrated. That harmony we all can feel, it's real. It's all around us, just see and hear! Its modest genius we talk about Just find it in yourself or out! Zaure Hizatolla: President of the GHA Kazakhstan, poet, writer, peacemaker. Address: Almaty, Kazakhstan.

Panayotis (Takis) Ioannides was born on 15 April 1955 in Kallithea, Athens, Greece.

The clang of steel and fire can lead us to do wrong, As the night gets darker In this fight against each other, Our hatred beats the gong. They say what is to be, will always be The day be changed by night And so the time to turn back won't agree. We're standing by this modern ark That we call "Harmony", and here Our bodies and our souls will finally embark.

Ancient city of Penang I walked and walked every step, People of Malay, Muslims, Chinese, Christians Together walked with me with Pride and peace The bell of St. George Church, Gave the glad tidings with a message, Forgive the human failing Give and give the hope of success. I entered the Kuan Yin temple With fragrance, the message radiating, Remove "I" and "Me"! That will eliminate human ego. What a beautiful reception With a great music of Nadaswaram recital in the Sri Mahamariamman temple; The temple gave a message All places are our own, people of universe Are our kith and kin. The Teochew temple gave me a smile With a message 'if you remove "ego" Hatred will disappear; In the great mosque participated in prayer With a Quranic recitation "Oh Almighty lead us the path of righteousness" The Yap Kongsi, temple gave me The welcome song "eliminate harted, Violence will disappear. In another temple Kho Kongsi led us to the path Remove the violence in mind, peace in life will be filled with. The Acheh Mosque gave us the message Message of removing the pain Of fellow human beings! This is Almighty's Command! When I completed my pilgrimage The streets of Harmony of Penang. Presented an integrated spiritual centre With message to the Universe. Every human being will give and give The best of human societies will be born. Poem composed on 30th August 2008 on return from my tour of Penang-Malaysia. For visiting the various religious places in the street of harmony there were number of cars, but seeing the large gathering of people, I walked with them to each place of worship. Oceans Meet "I am the Island of Rameswaram, dear friend, Born out of the shining water of the Indian Ocean. O my fellow Island, O my dearest friend, What is your origin and where do you live?" "Dear Ramy, they call me Formosa[1] – the beautiful Island, I live like a beautiful flower seeing the early sun-rise, Sitting in the gardens of magnificent oceans of the Pacific, As the deepest waves of the noble ocean scatter around me." "O friend, my dear friend – Formosa, I greet you with a heart brimming with joy. My vast ocean embraces a land of ancient religions, culture and divine wisdom, It is the soil where enlightened one – Lord Buddha once walked upon." "O Ramy! You are indeed showered with blessings divine, Garlanding around me are nations with billions of human souls, It was, the land and the nation which I call mine, That gave birth to the wisest sage, Confucius who shaped human thought in noble roles." And then, the two great humble oceans prayed and prayed, The two noble sages, then descended like angels upon the Sangam [2], The magnificent oceans then with veneration asked the heavenly souls, To glorify the earth with their wisdom like they did two millennia ago. The waves of gracious smiles from them merged with peace into each other, As they waited for the sages to ponder and illuminate with their knowledge. The mighty oceans sat patiently with clasped watery hands, As they swell and fell with each stroke of unfailing tide. And then with the radiant sun shining behind them spreading day, The sages smiled graciously as they began to say, Their voice echoed from the horizon filling the anxious sky, Time froze as the message of human glory and peace expanded to occupy the void. The wisest sage, Confucius said, "We are with two oceans who nurture half of humanity, We came to the planet earth in the same century, And gave the message of humanity and peace. O enlightened one! O Lord Buddha, Can you tell the world, how they can live, With universal peace and prosperity for all?" Buddha smiled with serene tranquility, "God gifted humans with intelligence and the tool of reason, It is for man to harness the might of the divine gift, To prosper towards a life of goodness and truth." The wisest sage, the holy master then agreed, "O enlightened one! Your thoughts are unique, Humans are indeed entrusted the great mission, Of realizing with body, mind and soul – the God's vision". Then our Island friends and the oceans which gave them birth, Humbly joined their voices from the heart, As they prayed and prayed again, Beseeching the divines to give a message of human renaissance. Again a deep silence engulfed the universe, The cosmos seemed to be filled with energy, The waves from both the oceans went violently high, And gently touched the feet of divinity with beautiful shehnai [3] playing: (O planet, what a past and what a present you possess, And when they come together, greeting like us two seas, They create the future, future of peace and prosperity for all) "O wisest sage, Confucius! You have preached and preached to peasants and herders in Lu, You preached the value of family life and that of righteousness in the heart, And O enlightened one! Under the sprawling Bodhi tree, You proclaimed – where there is righteousness in the heart, there is beauty in the character". The wise sage then said, "Yes I will sing now! When there is beauty in the character, There is harmony in the home" The enlightened one, the Buddha added, "When there is harmony in the home, There is order in the nation, When there is order in the nation There is peace in the world". In chorus, the two great sages wise and enlightened, Blessed humanity with the song of life righteousness, For world peace and prosperity for all. The Islands and the oceans rejoiced in unison, The waves and winds joined to sing the song of life in Sri Raga [4], Om Shanti! [5] Om Shanti! Then He-ping! [6] He-ping! [1] Formosa : Taiwan [2] Sangam : Confluence of two water bodies [3] Shehnai : an Indian musical instrument often played in auspicious occasions [4] Sri Raga : A Raga in Indian music [5] Om Shanthi : Divine peace for the world in language [6] He-ping : world peace (Chinese) Poem presented at the XXX World Congress of Poets held at Taiwan, on 2nd November 2010.

Rain drinks up the centuries; spring, our dreams. The eagle sees the sunrays and youth, the visions. Ideals Snow-covered mountains, ancient monuments, a north wind that nods to us, a thought that flows, images imbued with hymns of history, words on signs with ideals of geometry. Illusions Noiseless wrinkles on our forehead the frontiers of history, shed oblique glances at Homer's verses. Illusions full of guilt redeem wounded whispers that became echoes in lighted caves of the fools and the innocent. Dimitris P. Kraniotis is an award-winning Greek poet. He lives and works as a medical doctor (Internal Medicine specialist) in Larissa, Greece. He is the author of seven poetry books.

What a storm, what thunder, what a flash of violence seeks death or mutilates people who are innocent! Where is the light of the smile which God bestowed on men to love? Where is the light of dawn which radiates harmony among men? Where is PEACE, tell me, where? Time becomes a scream in the seconds which it takes for a shell to inflict the terror which you feel, and, on exploding, in its acrid smoke you breath the pleasure of feeling alive among the dead. As a child, I knew the smell of my blood in the horrific panic of the whistling bomb. And I felt the tearing of my wounded flesh and the lacerating fear, which time does not erase, in the cry of my constant cursing of the war. And you who speak so much of God, whom so often you invoke against other men, whom so much you worship to justify your actions, into what base souls have you invited him? Tell me, which is the race, which the country that you wish to defend or impose with fangs of fratricidal hate, when not even the death of a tiny child is justified by your fanaticism? If God is the LIGHT of life in HARMONY and eternal fount of LIBERTY supreme, where is the PEACE he implanted in your spirit? What seeds of hate are you planting there that cut the wounded land with blades of death! Peace from Harmony Who knows of light, knows about spirit and understands the perfume of the souls knows the love through tenderness that relieves the pain of those who suffer; who knows the muses and loves understands the sublime beauty and a song bewitches them with harmony: has the sun of a rose among their verses.

E-mail: jmlopera_at_hotmail.com Web: www.josemarialopera.com, www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=442 Dr. Leo Semashko's comment. This poem was included in the ABC of Harmony last.

Each such moment of collaboration in our ABC – is a small but important and necessary step in birth, in anguish and joy, a new, harmonious person – HOMO HARMONICUS! This human is unique in his/her ethnic diversity, and at the same time is identical into the global harmonious unity! And this is the most valuable. It's – birth, new, unprecedented, global harmonious identity of humanity and community of all his people! Apostolos Paschos Harmony Harmony is like a true God, The Creator of everything, the best for every human and philanthropy, Harmony is a measure of excellence between God and His beings, in the whole Universe and its parts, through-out the aeons of creation, Harmony is the Love of God to His beings, existing amongst God's faithful people, Harmony comprises the celestial God's symphony for the human, for His own glory, and for human's spiritual evolution, Harmony consists of God's analogy to His children, and constitutes Creator's disposition, for all human souls restoration.

Harmony is the creation energy, Spring of love and peace, A new light for knowledge, Existence meaning and fullness happiness! Harmony is the sun of peoples and nations, Inexhaustible warm for soulful heat, All needed language forgotten in wars, We embrace and reborn in it! The ABC of Harmony for Children The ABC of Harmony for children can be simple Like a starry sky above our heads And complex at the same time being a sum of elements Like an abyss of galaxies and stars. The first letter of it is parents, family – people, The love of mother and father towards their children, The love between juniors and seniors, which creates concord, Harmony in the family and absorbs it. The second letter of it is intellect and knowledge: science, arts – information, Faith and wisdom, tales and songs, books and broadcasts With good cartoons, there you can find funny boys and girls And when they sing and play together – this is harmony. The third letter of it is strict, but necessary – organization, It has different names: order, day schedule, code of conduct, Management, laws, accuracy, requirements and norms, And without them our children will be found in chaos and disaster as well. The fourth letter of it seems to be the simplest one – things Also the most comprehensible – our body and the objects around, Starting with cereal, clothes, apartment, car, Ending with house, city and nature – the place where we live. Each letter of harmony consists of a number of different blocks. The ABC of harmony should introduce children to those blocks And teach them how to form words and deeds using them, So that in children lives there would always be happiness and peace on Earth!

The force of it is scapeless. Perfection has no end. In it has Russia found its redemption, From fools and evil it can us defend. Presenting us a revelation, Unearthly beauty will expand Dissolving gloom of the oblivion Above this long time suffering land!..

Perhaps, the main lesson of life Is the return to our cradle. Tens, hundreds, thousand of distinctions, Ideologies, religions, sects and tribes, Shape us, the successors of the splendor Proud civilizations of past times. In that cradle we find our righteous years, When the Almighty with Love has created the World Has united people in Harmony with the Nature, Has presented the laws of the Cosmos. The result is rueful however. The chaos has come back. The civilization is finishing its way … After all the sensible Human being has turned Into the consumer of currency and services. Therefore, the light of Hope is important, It was lit by the GHA only five years ago. And let all the skeptics and illiterates be distrustful, Yet on Earth there'll be a triumph of Harmony. Harmony is in the cradle of the Creation! And I worship aspirations of humans To help people get the knowledge of that Only Harmony has an absolute power on Earth!

Though the saplings we plant may be small; Together they'd grow to mutual accord and understanding all. Someone has a birthday today; It means much more than a happy day! Within these words are hidden many thoughts; That humankind share everyday! It means we are brothers; And be thankful for all we do together. It means we are friends; And that we care for each other. We all come from the same spirit; Shouldn't that alone be the reason to celebrate? The spiritual culture that we orchestrate on this day; Will create a song of harmony and reverberate! Dr. Laj Utreja has worked in various capacities, as hands-on engineer, as technical leader in people management, and as CEO of a small business. He has been an ardent student of Sanatana Dharma for most of his adult life. His reverence for Bhagavad Geeta has in part motivated him to write his two books, "Who are we?" and "What is our origin?"
