WDEF Philosophy

Genuine peace must be the product of many nations,

the sum of many acts. It must be dynamic, not static,

changing to meet the challenge of each new generation.

For peace is a process a way of solving problems.

The Banner of PeaceThrough Culture

Dating from antiquity, the sign

of the triad is found all over the

world as a heroic symbol of

past,presentandfuture or as

religion,science and art

enclosed in the ring ofeternity.


86/88

What is the meaning of culture?

The word culture is derived from cultand ur. Cult means cultivation. Ur

is an ancient Chaldean term meaning

light the creative aspect of the

universe. Hence, culture is literally the

cultivation of creativity.

There is nothing higher than creativeness,

and there is no greater joy. Therefore

create and rejoice! Be daring in creativeflight. Create courageously! Let thought

undistorted and unrestricted be impressed

in your being. Let it be free from the

shadow of the censors scalpel. Be true to

yourself because there is nothing higher

than creativeness.

Continuing the Legacy of Cultural Leadership

All we are is what we are to each other.


88/88

The future is not a result of choices among

alternative paths offered by the present, but a

place that is created, created in mind and will,

created next in activity.

The future is not some place we are going to, but

one we are creating. The paths to it are not foundbut made, and the activity of making them change

both the makers and the destination.

John Scharr
