    WORLD HARMONY CONSENSUS AND WORLD HARMONY

    RENAISSANCE DECLARATION

    www.worldharmonyorg.netLETTER TO HON HAROLD PINTER

    Dear Honorable Mr. Pinter,

    I am receiving a great deal of support for my humble writing and our

    World Harmony Renaissance Day Cultural Festival proposal. Here is the

    concluding section " World Harmony Consensus and World HarmonyRenaissance Declaration" of my next book "World Harmony

    Renaissance:Promise for a better World" for your preview andpublication.

    Democracy as an European movement began from the age ofenlightenment. It advocated citizen's and human rights. It was a great

    movement that released human energy. Through EuropeanRenaissance our modern world of science began. American

    independence continued this tradition. U. S. Constitution and Bill of

    Rights advocated democracy through law and order. That is thestrength of Western democracy.

    The essence of Eastern teaching is self discipline through harmony

    with nature. In Chinese the ancient saying is "Tien Ren He Yi" meaning

    the unity of man and universe. From the Middle East, the cradle of

    major World Religions, we all learned submission of our will to thecreator. In this practice traditionally, the Eastern culture placed moreemphasis on moral values and avoiding extremism. The Eastern

    practice of harmony is through contemplation of nature, self disciplineand meditation. The West learned meditation and faith from Eastern

    philosophies and religions. The basic harmony value of avoiding

    extremism together with family unity and ancestry worship continuedChinese culture of 5000 years without causing ecology catastrophe,

    despite certain excesses of the past.

    Harmony belongs to the world and all culture of the world containharmony. It is in practice and emphasis that we are different. ForHarmony Renaissance to take hold the West and East must work

    together. The Western practice of advocacy in pursuing democracy cannow be applied to advocating Harmony Renaissance. The West and

    East both can learn from each other. In America Easterners need to

    learn how to apply advocacy to Harmony Renaissance byunderstanding the American system. Together, the advent of Harmony

    Renaissance will bring the world together with a higher common value.

    In America, East and West could very well learn from each other andput together an unity Harmony Renaissance Declaration as a start. The

    next phase of human development through Harmony Renaissance will

    divert our wasted energy in human conflicts and religious strife toworking together on scientifically sustainable ecology. Our common

    scientific development will begin another surge. Thus HarmonyRenaissance will bring us to a higher level of human common

    endeavour. Without question, future human accomplishment from the

    release of energy through World Harmony Renaissance will surpassEuropean Renaissance.

    The advent of European and American democracy heralded the age of

    modern science and cultural renaissance. It is one of the greatest

    human contribution to our common world heritage. But it eventuallyencouraged individualism, insatiable consumerism and extremism in

    the absence of individual personal harmony practice. In today'sconflicting world of 6 billion population and growing, each person on

    earth wanting to own a SUV or HUMVEE is a form of insatiable extremeconsumerism. Simple arithmetic will show this type of extreme

    consumerism unchecked places unsustainable demand on our common

    world resources. .

    Cultural excesses of insatiable consumerism and individualism in theWest and its spread to the East now needs to be balanced by Eastern

    harmony, moderation and family values. This means bringing backbasic family and group harmony through practice of self discipline. Aswell meaning as Western law and order democracy is, our world is not

    sustainable with the spread of today's insatiable consumerism andextreme individualism Traditionally in China as detailed in my book

    "China's Harmony Renaissance: What the World Must Know" law is

    only the bottom line, common moral values above it. By necessity weneed to bring back self discipline through harmony practice, mutual

    development and harmony development. The premise and title of thisbook is "World Harmony Renaissance:Promise for a Better World"

    As a start, It is paramount that the world through HarmonyRenaissance must reach meaningful World Harmony Consensus. The

    current continuing rapid development of China, India and the rest ofthe developing world must be encouraged to adopt "Harmony

    Development" through personal individual self discipline. The West andparts of the developed Asia at the same time need to set an example

    to curb extreme individualism and consumerism. Within the frame

    work of this 'World Harmony Consensus" we will see the promise of amore sustainable and better world, Q.E.D.

    Q.E.D. is a Latin term meaning it is demonstrated or proved which I

    vaguely remembered from my high school geometry class. During my

    childhood, enthusiasm that all things Western were good includingWestern mathematics and Science, Q.E.D. came to mean with modern

    science everything is quite easily done. Frankly reaching WorldHarmony consensus for Harmony Development can be quite easily

    done if we practice less individualism and more harmony through

    personal discipline. World cultural flow must not just from the West tothe East. "Be proud you are citizens of the world and not citizens of

    one country." Do I have your support to initiate the first WorldHarmony Renaissance Day Cultural Festival?
