THE TWELVE VIRTUES OF HARMONY RENAISSANCE

Harmony is the most common value of mankind. All ancient cultural heritages include
harmony faith. Twentieth century history has been dominated by Western ideals of
Freedom, Liberty and Democracy. These ideals revolutionized the relations between
citizens and their governments. These changes resulted in today’s modern Western
government systems. Harmony is an ancient ideal of more than two thousand years old.
It is a system of beliefs that include all relations between individuals, within oneself,
within the family, citizen and government, between nations and down to between human
and nature. As an all inclusive faith for conflict resolution, harmony belief has been
neglected for over two centuries. The modern society in its departure from harmony faith
tends to be very materialistic. Evolution by the survival of the fittest has been
inordinately emphasized.

Today’s conflicted world of religious and ideological confrontations call for the revival
of harmony faith. World Harmony Organization is dedicated to the pursuit of Harmony
Renaissance. Our mission is to work with United Nations to support a modern harmony
culture that can begin to harmonize relations between nations as well as between man and
nature. There is no higher faith healing than Harmony Renaissance. Harmony
Renaissance reconciles all faiths, religions and ideologies, when it is upheld by the
international community as a New World Order.

Harmony is the order of nature and the operating principle of the universe. Harmony
Faith as the order of universe is proclaimed in our Harmony Renaissance Preamble and
Declaration. This is delivered as a speech at the April 25, 2008, Spring of U.N. Festival.
Further disclosure of Harmony Faith is also attached in the article titled “Harmony Faith,
the Order of the Universe”.

Harmony Renaissance is the inevitable tide humans are waiting to bring us to the next
level of accomplishment beyond European Renaissance. To participate in this second
wave of dynamic harmony movement the twelve virtues of Harmony Renaissance are
presented here. They are: TOLERANCE, ACCEPTANCE, RESPECT, KINDNESS,
FORGIVENESS, HUMILITY, GENTLENESS, PATIENCE, EQUITY,
NONVIOLENCE, GREEN ECOLOGY AND CONSERVATION. The last two being
actions we now must collectively take urgently to harmonize with nature in order to avoid
catastrophe on earth.

We propose that United Nations every year organize an international artists contest for
the best combination of poetry and art work to extol the twelve Harmony Renaissance
virtues. The selected first ten submissions will be published worldwide as that year’s
calendars for world distribution. This will become an important tradition for mankind to
start each year with harmony inspirations. So Harmony Renaissance and the 12 virtues of
harmony will live in the hearts of mankind. We can also proclaim the first month of
each year as Harmony Renaissance month to advocate the twelve virtues of
harmony culture.
