Secretary General (NPCIH) Pakistan

National Peace committee for interfaith Harmony
(NPCIH) and its members all over the world, extend
heartily felicitation on the eve of New Year. We
expect that 2011 will become a year of Peace,
Harmony and Love among all Notions-- Such events may
remind rejuvenate a zeal and enthusiasm to create an
atmosphere of peace and harmony which is the primary
thesis ...of NPCIH's Constitution. We believe
without a robust interfaith harmony among various
segments of religious factions and creeds, a
sustainable World peace can never be achieved. We
expect the international community may join hands
this year to work together for a peaceful world.
Save and maintain the country in original position
in accordance with the manifestos, ideology, desires
Founder of Pakistan (Excellency Mr. Muhammad Ali
Jinnah.) and billions of peoples of Subcontinent
supported the cause. To eliminate the evils,
discrepancies, frauds and other un- justice activism
from Pakistan.. Support those who have same
ideologies.
We are living in the beginning of
the twenty-first century. The twentieth century was
a century of bloody revolutions and wars; it was a
century of Hitler and Stalin. But the twentieth
century was also a century of our great leader
Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Indian Mahatma
Gandhi and Martin Luther King. People win in the war
of evil against humanity. The future depends on us
who live now.
Life is something greater than we
sometimes passively agree to. The world and the
human essential is a great and boundless realm.
People are tired of politics and business only.
National Peace Council is able now to restore a
wholeness and fullness to human life. It is a role
of art to support a spiritual dimension of human
life, to open new horizons of human meanings.
National Peace Council now and always is a way to
peaceful understanding between people and nations;
National Peace Council provides a deep human quest
for peace, for individual and world harmony.
National Peace Council should give us a real feeling
for life in the contemporary decisive time. National
Peace Council is humanism.
The National Peace
Council now stands in very difficult position.
Artistic creations are now considered to be "no
different from conventional goods and services; the
powerful cultural importance of works of the human
imagination is denied or ignored " As a result of
such situation public awareness about National Peace
Council is very low, and the lives of individual
“Peace Lovers” are hardly possible. A mass culture
is mostly only able to exist in the contemporary
business world of a mass trade. But, “Peace Lovers”
are aware of the great importance of Peace, and it
is our task to stand against the isolation and
elimination of Peace.
The evil deprives people
and whole nations of the human right for a spiritual
independence.
Vincent van Gogh said: "I tell you,
the more I think, the more I feel that there is
nothing more truly artistic than to love people". It
is true that Peace is for the people, for the world,
for life, Peace truly unites all of us by the best
of human heart and soul.
“Peace Lovers” are
standing up for a human spiritual independence with
their hands, with their hearts, and with their
lives. It is a standing not against the world; it is
a standing for the world, for the peace and world
harmony.
Therefore, Government of Islamic
Republic of Pakistan has created an independent body
“National Peace Council” for Interfaith and Harmony
under Ministry of Interior and Religious Affairs
“Peace Lovers” (NPCIH) Herein we have formulated
goals and strategies that have arisen out of our
standing. The main task is to restore a prestige of
Peace all over the world. In this way public
interest in Peace and harmony will be obtained for
the benefit of all humanity.
NPCIH will become
recognized as being an important part of human life.
We hope for people's understanding and support.
Achievements of the human imagination are vital part
of everybody’s life.
In the process of NPCIH
development we have deeply understood the
contemporary role of peace. Besides advocating for
peace and harmony, we are happy to continue the best
endeavours of Twentieth century.
Now the role of
peace of art is close to ideas of Martin Luther King
Jr., who advocated for peaceful, non violence and
harmonic way of humanity.
We are proud to be
united with National Peace Council for Interfaith
and Harmony, Government of Pakistan and New York
Metropolitan Martin Luther King Jr. Centre for Non
violence (MLK). We are happy that we are a part of
the International “Peace Lovers” for Peace and World
Harmony Organizing Committee created by MLK, and
that together with MKL we have represented in the
United Nations the ideas concerning role of art in
building bridges of understanding between people and
nations. We are happy to be a part of National Peace
Council.
The idea expressed by Kofi Annan that –
"NPCIH opens new door for learning, understanding,
and peace among people and nations" – receives
interest and support over the entire world. This
idea is very similar to the Prophesy of Fyodor
Dostoyevsky in which he stated: "Beauty will save
the world".
"We must work our destiny in our own
way and present to the world an economic system
based on true Islamic concept of equality of manhood
and social justice. We will thereby be fulfilling
our mission as Muslims and giving to humanity the
message of peace which alone can save it and secure
the welfare, happiness and prosperity of mankind"
Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Speech at
the opening ceremony of Sate Bank of Pakistan,
Karachi, July 1, 1948
"Constitution of
Pakistan lays down the provision for the minorities
to freely practice their religion and for the
development of their culture, it also safeguards the
legitimate interests of minorities for which the
present government is also committed .Quaid-i-Azam
right from the day of creation of Pakistan, had
unequivocally declare a policy of freedom and
security for all communities living in Pakistan,
irrespective of their religion, profession or ethnic
origin. {Syed Yusuf Rzza Gillani, Prime Minister of
Pakistan}
Mahatma Gandhi has written on the
wall of his house: “I do not want my house to be
walled in on all sides and my windows to be stuffed.
I want the cultures of all lands to be blown about
my house as freely as possible. But I refuse to be
blown off my feet by any.”
Martin Luther King
has said: "If humanity is to progress, Jinnah and
Gandhi are inescapable. They lived, thought, and
acted, inspired by the vision of humanity evolving
toward a world of peace and harmony.", and: "I found
in the non violent resistance philosophy of Jinnah
and Gandhi... the only morally and practically sound
method open to oppressed people in their struggle
for freedom."
The future of humanity is a
peaceful way of freedom and spiritual independence.
Different nations and cultures can enrich each other
whilst maintaining their individual identities.
NPCIH is the universal sphere of human activity
where such a way is provided. Each man and woman,
each national culture and each religion has a deep
inner beauty. The era of the New Renaissance is
coming!
NPCIH and the world peace lovers in
one moment became one unit based on the above ideas.
Our activity is going to be wider. We stress themes
that unite and identify a common purpose that bring
many people and organizations together.
But,
our successful beginnings are developing slower than
we could wish. Of course, our efforts are aggravated
by the world economical crisis which harms the Peace
first, as a sphere situated outside of a mass trade.
We have no right to surrender in this situation. We
hope for tireless and enthusiastic people, and we
remember the words of Edmund Burke: "The only thing
necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to
do nothing".
We must follow the Habit of
Peace said by our Holy Prophet {Peace and Blessing
of Allah be upon Him and upon His Holy Progeny.
Wish you peace for ever for everyone.

Asif Secretary General (NPCIH) Pakistan |
