Declaration of Global Efforts to Safeguard the Earth

The Mirror of Heaven shows that when the blue sky is no longer there,
When life is no longer invigorating,
We should reflect upon what mankind has done and return to the basics.
Human beings must endeavor to safeguard the earth.

 

The direction of the world's destiny after 2008 hinges upon mankind's effort to save the earth. What happens in different corners around the world impacts all nations. Mankind's destiny is now inter-twined. We have only one earth. The earth has given 6.7 billion people and millions of species equal opportunities to live. What have we given the earth in return?

IN WITNESS THAT the increasing occurrences of disasters and catastrophes show that the earth has started to remedy itself. These are the rebalancing acts of nature and its way to restore balance. Imbalanced nature strikes humanity and the warming earth devastates many lives.

IN WITNESS THAT love is the origin of all life. Peace is built upon the foundation of balance. Peace originates from the harmony between humanity and nature. Human rights originate from love and respect among people. May human rights be protected. May peace prevail.

IN WITNESS THAT love is to be felt with heart and many sounds are to be listened to with heart. We have to deal with global warming with a heart of understanding and appreciate the creatures of the universe. Following mankind's whims is not the right solution as justice and equity tend to be lost in volatile human hearts and will result in more serious disasters.

IN WITNESS THAT it is difficult to reach true solidarity. All too often, people are not able to find the underlying truth behind the scene, resulting in them getting lost without realizing the underlying truth.

 

Courses of Actions:

  1. The real key to affect world's destiny lies in changing ourselves and turning to good thoughts to change the world. We have to uphold basic human rights, plant the seeds of love and light the lamp of peace in our hearts, and do more good deeds to compensate for prior mistakes.
  2. Always retain positive energies and exert positive influences. Radiate the self-confidence, courage, and potential from within and practice love and peace in daily life.
  3. Always embrace a heart of gratitude and believing. A pure heart is the foundation to receive energies. A heart of appreciation will bring fortune and blessings. We should say “thank you” to everyone who teaches us any experience or knowledge. We should also receive other people's kindness with appreciation and kindness. A heart of appreciation and looking at the bright side is the way to obtain wisdom.
  4. People should learn the intuitive process of making analogies. These are understood directly by the heart, without interference from the brain. This is the function of heart and the heart will receive the most genuine messages. Relying upon the intuition of the pure heart in combination with situational and scenario analysis is the learning process of the wise.
  5. The younger generation will face a tougher environment and take on more challenging responsibilities. We should assist the youth to quickly enter the world and teach them to evoke the energies of pure hearts.
  6. It is our duty to do our jobs well. Helping people requires appropriate measures. Every individual possesses different skills and energies. We need to put the right people in the right positions. The world will have hope if we link these positive influences.

  Global warming, environmental degradation, poverty, disease and death caused by war have created severe casualties, panic and troubled minds. The earth is our only home. We have to cooperate to prevent and reduce the occurrences of disasters. We have been fortunate to be able to live on this land of peace. The thoughts in our hearts are a source of invisible energy. We all have a limitless power generator in our hearts and we should direct our energy to the most appropriate and productive use. The world originates from one big family. All creatures are brothers and sisters. Peace brings stability, development and prosperity. Human rights are endowed by nature, and originate from mankind living in harmony with both other men and nature. Everyone should enjoy dignified, fair, just and equitable treatment.

  I hereby urge the UN Secretary General, heads of states, UN ambassadors, NGO leaders and all people to spread the positive energy of loving the earth in order to stabilize the magnetic fields of the planet. Making good wishes comes first and must be followed by actions. We should constantly remind ourselves of the wishes we made and dedicate ourselves whole-heartedly to making the wishes come true. We should soothe the earth with the energy of love and benevolence and promote world peace with peaceful determination. Let's strive for the realization of global human rights. Let's work collectively to safeguard the earth and improve the world's destiny.
