It is human beings who depend on Nature for survival. We believe that the universe is sacred. We believe in the sanctity and integrity of all life and life forms. We affirm the principles of peace and non-violence in governing human behavior towards one another and all life. We view ecological disruption as violent intervention into the web of life.
Genetic engineering threatens the very fabric of life.
We urge all governments, scientists and industry to refrain from rushing blindly into genetic manipulation. We call upon all political leaders to keep a spiritual perspective when making decisions. All leaders must recognize the consequences of their actions for the coming generations. We call upon our educators to motivate the people towards harmony with nature and peaceful coexistence with all living things. Our youth and children must be prepared to assume their responsibilities as citizens of tomorrow's world.
