7th International Conference of Chief Justices of the World concludes<br />

World Judiciary hails demand of world's children to<br />

unite all humanity under One World Law<br />

Chief Justices, judges, legal<br />

experts and peace promoters<br />

unanimously hailed the<br />

fervent appeal by CMS<br />

students on behalf of two<br />

billion children of the world<br />

to strengthen the<br />

International Court of Justice and<br />

unite all humanity under One World<br />

Law. 250 top lawyers and peace<br />

workers assembled on a common<br />

platform at the World Unity<br />

Convention Centre, CMS Kanpur<br />

Road, Lucknow from 8 to 12 December<br />

2006 and discussed the need for global<br />

transformation of society in the interest<br />

of all humanity. It was urgently felt that<br />

nuclear weapons should be banned and<br />

all countries should come together under<br />

a world government. A world parliament<br />

should be constituted and empowered to<br />

enact and enforce international laws<br />

which are binding and applicable to all the<br />

countries of the world. The judges also<br />

stressed the urgent need of strengthening<br />

World Judiciary unites to illumine the lamp of<br />

peace and justice<br />

the International Court of Justice so that<br />

its decisions are respected and carried out.<br />

This is in accordance with Article 51(c)<br />

of the Constitution of India which states<br />

that the state shall endeavour to foster<br />

respect for International Law. As such, it<br />

becomes the duty of every citizen of<br />

India, who owes allegiance to this<br />

constitution, to respect international law<br />

and work towards world unity.(for details<br />

KEY 1: SET YOURSELF A GOAL<br />

What are your realistic goals in each subject and overall in the<br />

Boards<br />

Let’s say, you want to get: 90% in mathematics, 80% overall.<br />

If the Board examination was this week, what would you get<br />

Let’s say, this week you would get 60% in mathematics, 50%<br />

overall. The questions you need to worry about are:<br />

How am I going to make up the 30% difference<br />

What am I going to study first, second and third in the revision<br />

process<br />

Should I give equal emphasis to all my subjects<br />

Should I study my weakest topics and subjects first<br />

KEY 2: MAKE A SMART STUDY PLAN<br />

If you fail to plan, you plan to fail!<br />

Sharpen the saw before chopping the wood. Making a plan will<br />

take some time but it will ensure that your efforts are better targeted<br />

and you can achieve more in less time. If you have less time, your<br />

strategy should be even better. There is no doubt that a good<br />

strategy combined with a solid work plan can make you achieve<br />

your goals.<br />

Make a list of the topics you need to know in each subject and<br />

those aspects you will need to commit to memory.<br />

Making a separate plan for things you will need to recall is most<br />

important. These are the marks waiting for you.<br />

Put the topics you find EASY to understand in the first column,<br />

MODERATE in the 2nd column, and DIFFICULT in the 3rd column.<br />

You can make a 4th column: DON’T KNOW.<br />

KEY 3: DIFFERENTIATE<br />

Do you move from EASY to DIFFICULT or the other way round<br />

Are you focusing on your difficult topics first<br />

Don’t! To gain maximum marks, move instead from Easy to Difficult<br />

topics in each subject.<br />

How do I differentiate<br />

i. For concepts you are good at, practice for speed and<br />

accuracy and avoid careless mistakes. Avoid overconfidence<br />

like plague.<br />

ii. For concepts you are moderately good at, consolidate at the<br />

class level.<br />

iii. For concepts you have a limited understanding of, go back a<br />

few steps and build understanding from below class level.<br />

Going back to the basics might be quicker than struggling<br />

away at the class level in these concepts.<br />

iv. For aspects you need to memorise, mark these according to<br />

Keys 4 and 5. Make a plan to read and re-read bookmarked<br />

pages on a daily basis. Read once at night when you are<br />

tired and cannot do thinking work. Read the exact same<br />

matter first thing in the morning. It works like magic to create<br />

photographic images in your mind.<br />

KEY 4: WORK BACKWARDS<br />

Do you study forwards by chapter, then attempt questions Don’t!<br />

Between now and the examination, you will not have the time to<br />

read all the theory again (there is simply too little time left!). Reading<br />

theory first will also give you a false sense of how much you<br />

really know. Besides, you can revise your theory better and<br />

remember more by working backwards from past questions than<br />

working forwards from theory.<br />

Put yourself in the examination mode right now. Attempt to do past<br />

questions whether or not you know the chapters well. Then if you<br />

cannot recall or apply logic to solve a particular question, go back<br />

to your textbook and look up just that amount of theory you will<br />

need, using your textbook as a reference book only (like a<br />

dictionary). It is most important that you mark up your textbook<br />

with a highlighter pen all the bits you could not remember. This<br />

way, you can build up an inventory of these facts you should<br />

remember for the Boards.<br />

Have you done past 10+ year papers This will build more<br />

confidence than any other revision you can do right now. This is<br />

true for all students “weak” or “strong”.<br />

Attempt past questions topic wise, not year wise, so that you can<br />

understand your own strengths and weaknesses in each topic.<br />

Sometimes you think a topic is easy until you attempt. Students<br />

who have already mastered past questions can then cover model<br />

questions in the topics that did not feature fully in the past papers,<br />

just in case those topics come in the future, but not before past q’s<br />

are done.<br />

Topic wise study will give you a fair idea of the trend / pattern of<br />

questions and give you practice in the technique of answering<br />

each type of question.<br />

Notice any common mistakes you make. Make a special entry of<br />

these in your textbook so as to avoid them.<br />

Mental calculations should be double checked with written rough<br />

work and backwards calculations, for example, division work<br />

could be checked by multiplication.<br />

KEY 5: MAKE SMART REVISION NOTES<br />

Are your revision notes summaries of your textbooks<br />

Revision notes should ideally not be made in a separate notebook.<br />

In fact, you can use your textbook as the best place to mark the<br />

key points for later recollection. Here’s how...<br />

While working backwards from a past question, mark with a<br />

highlighter pen just those portions of your textbook you needed to<br />

solve past/other questions and which you could not recall in solving<br />

them. Write down the year(s) from which the questions had come.<br />

Bookmark each page.<br />

Use yellow sticky paper (post-it slips) to write any additional facts,<br />

formulae or notes which you need to remind yourself of on the<br />

day or night before examination. As time will be limited then, plan<br />

on the fact that these highlighted pages are all you will have time<br />

to read then.<br />

Do not mark up large chunks of your textbook, just the keywords<br />

on a few most essential pages of your textbook. Try to reconstruct<br />

the rest of your learning around them.<br />

You are more likely to recall things marked in your textbook pages<br />

which you tend to see more often than notes made in a separate<br />

revision notebook. You will also remember the context in which<br />

you marked up a particular section, for example, when you could<br />

not solve a particular past question. You are more likely to remember<br />

theory related to questions you struggled with most (which is<br />

why you should put yourself in exam conditions in the first place<br />

while solving past papers and not read up theory first). Past<br />

papers are a tremendous guide to what is the most important. This<br />

method will surely help you build up better and more intelligent<br />

revision notes than marking up big chunks in your textbook without<br />

any planning, or worse still, rewriting all that text from your<br />

textbook into a register or a notebook, or a wall chart. The latter is<br />

mostly waste of time.<br />

Some students will benefit from making additional mind-maps and<br />

memory aids. Make these mind maps on sticky paper/post-it slips<br />

and stick these all into your textbook where relevant and bookmark<br />

the relevant pages so that these can also form a contextualised<br />

part of your last minute revision process. Do not bookmark many<br />

pages of your textbook, only the most essential ones.<br />

These methods will ensure that you will recollect more and use<br />

your precious last few hours productively to maximise your marks<br />

the next day.<br />

KEY 6: WORK TO IMPROVE YOUR AVERAGE<br />

How many of you make Hindi your last priority<br />

Imagine your 7 or 11 subjects are like 7 or 11 mango trees. Your job<br />

is to get the most mangoes in the shortest possible time. Would<br />

you first go for the mangoes which are nearest to you or those<br />

farthest Obviously, you can get more marks with less effort from<br />

subjects and topics which are easier to master. For example, in<br />

Hindi 20 hours of revision effort may gain you more marks than in<br />

mathematics or physics or a subject you find difficult. Also, wouldn’t<br />

you want to pluck all the easy to get mangoes from all your trees<br />

first Obviously, one should try to work with all the subjects and<br />

first cover all the easy topics in each, before moving on to the<br />

moderately difficult topics in all subjects and then to the most<br />

difficult topics in all subjects. Sometimes, you may have to drop<br />

the most difficult topics in some subjects altogether if time is short,<br />

or risk lowering your average to below what you can get with<br />

what you can master.<br />

KEY 7: MAKE A DAILY REVISION PLAN<br />

Before embarking on revision, you should make a clear timetable<br />

for your revision work.<br />

Allocate a “realistic” time on what you can actually accomplish<br />

each day.<br />

Differentiate and re-adjust your priorities to fit within the time<br />

available.<br />

Consider what you will finish by when. When can you revise a<br />

second time<br />

Make a note of the aspects you were unable to cover in the first<br />

round of revision. Find time for these in the next round (narrow<br />

the field each time).<br />

Make a note of what were your stumbling blocks in each round of<br />

revision.<br />

Be determined to meet the set goals each day and each week.<br />

Don’t slacken.<br />

KEY 8: MANAGE YOUR TIME WELL<br />

How do you organise your time for most effective output<br />

Guard your time, the most valuable resource you have, or it will<br />

simply slip away!<br />

If you are tired or find you are being ineffective in your studies,<br />

take a break.<br />

Remember you are not studying to please anybody, but to be<br />

effective.<br />

There are 168 hours in a week, plenty of hours to find about 50<br />

hours (7 hours per day or so) of solid work instead of 100 hours<br />

of ineffective studies.<br />

Be realistic in your planning. Do not make plans which you cannot<br />

meet.<br />

A four hour cycle of solid sleep is a minimum and ideally 6-8 hours.<br />

A short siesta in the afternoons really boosts capacity at night.<br />

Start studying at a time when you are most alert and most relaxed.<br />

When you are feeling tired, take on easy tasks that you enjoy<br />

doing, including just reading and re-reading those portions you<br />

need to commit to memory.<br />

At no time should you waste your time watching TV (it tires your<br />

eyes out, even though you think you are relaxing). Also, no<br />

worrying (as it lowers your energy). Take a walk in fresh air<br />

instead or simply close your eyes, meditate and listen to classical<br />

music such as Swan Lake.<br />

KEY 9: MOTIVATE YOURSELF<br />

Do not rely upon external motivators, parents, teachers or peers.<br />

This is your project. Motivate yourself.<br />

Be determined to succeed. No one can push you harder than you<br />

yourself. Don’t let others discourage you either.<br />

Study in small groups. This can really provide a charged<br />

environment. Choose your group members well.<br />

An ideal size of the group is three to five.<br />

Involve your parents who can help monitor your progress.<br />

Give yourself specific awards for completing a task.<br />

It improves motivation by changing your place of study.<br />

Seek help from your friends and teachers.<br />

Avoid tuition. You can learn much more by yourself in the same<br />

time. Now is not the time to develop new understanding. Focus on<br />

building up marks by consolidating what you potentially know and<br />

revise for memory every day.<br />

KEY 10: AVOID STRESS<br />

Don’t get stressed and think it all impossible.<br />

Thinking positively helps avoid stress. Remember, stress lowers<br />

efficiency.<br />

Get adequate sleep daily, or you will burn out, fall sick and lose<br />

marks.<br />

Create a manageable daily routine (don’t wake up at 3 in the<br />

morning and then off to sleep again!). Don’t change your routine or<br />

your biorythmns will be affected.<br />

Most importantly, avoid any negative self-suggestions. Talk yourself<br />

into thinking and feeling positive.<br />

Eat properly. Take cod liver oil daily to prevent falling sick (following<br />

Dr Amitabh Pandit’s advice).<br />

thinking is reflected in our Constitution, he said.<br />

Receiving the ‘Mahatma Gandhi Award for World<br />

Unity,’ Mr Cassam Uteem said that Mauritius is a peace<br />

loving nation. He said mankind should unite to spread<br />

peace in the world. Mr Uteem said that our priority does<br />

not simply lie in formulating laws but in obeying them<br />

with full commitment, there is need for equal rights for<br />

all nations, equality in their status and a commitment<br />

amongst all for obeying the United Nations. On this<br />

occasion, the students of CMS conveyed the message<br />

of World Unity and world peace through an appealing<br />

and dazzling cultural programme. The audience was spell<br />

A view of the historic World Judiciary Summit<br />

at CMS Kanpur Road<br />

bound in watching it that induced a feeling of Oneness<br />

of God, oneness of religion and oneness of mankind. On<br />

this occasion, Founder Manager of CMS, Mr <strong>Ja</strong>gdish<br />

Gandhi said that CMS students are representative of 2<br />

billion children of the world. He expressed satisfaction<br />

that the appeal of CMS students for world unity and world<br />

peace has received world-wide support. Now the wholehearted<br />

support extended by the Chief Justices, Judges<br />

and Jurists of the world has further given an impetus to<br />

it. Founder-Director of CMS, Dr (Mrs) Bharti Gandhi,<br />

proposing a vote of thanks towards all the distinguished<br />

guests, said that India has always been the ‘<strong>Ja</strong>gat Guru’<br />

to inspire world unity, friendship and world peace. This<br />

historic conference was held on Article 51(c) of the<br />

Constitution of India drafted by the great visionaries of<br />

India. Article 51(c) of the Indian Constitution in its<br />

Directive Principles, clearly states that the State shall<br />

endeavour to foster respect for International Law.<br />

The conference was formally inaugurated by the<br />

Chief Guest, Hon’ble Mr Justice V. N. Khare, former<br />

Chief Justice of India by lighting the lamp which<br />

symbolized the illumination, dedication and commitment<br />

of all those who had gathered at the conference for the<br />

common cause of world unity and world peace. In his<br />

inaugural address, Mr Justice V N Khare, commended<br />

CMS students’ campaign for world unity. He said that<br />

Indian Constitution has provisions for all kinds of rights<br />

for children but CMS students’ appeal has a significance<br />

of its own. It has drawn the entire world’s attention<br />

towards the children’s right to a safe future. He said CMS<br />

students' campaign has set an example to all children of<br />

the world and they must follow suit. He admired CMS<br />

Lucknow's Mayor Dr D. Sharma honouring<br />

UNESCO peace laureate Judge C.G. Weeramantry<br />

with Key to Lucknow<br />

for convening the conference and termed it as epoch<br />

making. Humanity would forever remember CMS efforts<br />

for world unity and world peace.<br />

Hon’ble Mr Justice Prakash P Naolekar, Judge,<br />

Supreme Court of India said that though there are<br />

various organizations looking after the welfare of<br />

humankind, there is no enforceability of law and so human<br />

life has become vulnerable. He said that by organizing<br />

this conference every year, CMS Founder-Manager,<br />

Mr <strong>Ja</strong>gdish Gandhi, has awakened the masses to the<br />

dangers that lie ahead if there was no world government<br />

and world parliament to pass enforceable international<br />

laws. Hon’ble Madame Justice Graciela Dixon, Chief<br />

Justice of Panama forcefully spoke on the duties of<br />

the world judiciary in regard to protecting the future of<br />

the world’s children saying that since UN has failed to<br />

fulfill the aspirations the world's children as well as adults<br />

the world judiciary to come forward to plead for<br />

protecting their rights and this is possible only when there<br />

is world parliament and a world government in place.<br />

She said initially the world parliament will have some<br />

difficulty in framing the laws applicable for the entire<br />

world, yet its wise deliberations would find out quick<br />

relief to the people even if the laws are inacted in<br />

piecemeals. Commending the CMS efforts for organizing<br />

the International Conference of Chief Justices of the<br />

World, Hon’ble Mr Justice Prof. Abdul Salam Azimi,<br />

Chief Justice, Supreme Court, Afghanistan said that<br />

the judiciary is often forgotten as an important institution<br />

in helping to make life better for society. He extended<br />

the support of the Supreme Court of Afghanistan to the<br />

CMS students’ petition for making it a reality.<br />

Hon’ble Justice Syed Saghir Ahmad, former<br />

Judge, Supreme Court of India and the first supporter<br />

of the conference on Article 51 of Constitution of India,<br />

said that human beings the world over were born alike<br />

and thus they deserved equal rights. However, despite<br />

world wide campaign for human rights for decades ever<br />

since a former US President, Franklin Roosevelt,<br />

pleaded for it, it must be admitted that human rights are<br />

still not being protected by the governments for one or<br />

the other vague reasons. The human rights come under<br />

severe strain when there is an armed conflict or war.<br />

Currently the human rights have been openly flouted by<br />

H. E. Mr Cassam Uteem, former President of Mauritius<br />

inaugurates the Welcome Ceremony of Chief Justices<br />

the terrorists and by counter terrorism agencies. He said<br />

that CMS is writing a new chapter in the history of human<br />

civilization.The Mayor of Lucknow, Dr Dinesh<br />

Sharma, welcomed all the participants of the conference<br />

and presented the 'Key to the <strong>City</strong> of Lucknow' to the<br />

winner of UNESCO Peace Prize-2006, Sri Lanka’s<br />

Mr Justice Weeramantry, former Vice-President of<br />

International Court of Justice. Accepting the Key,<br />

Hon’ble Mr Justice Weeramantry said that by hosting<br />

this historic conference, <strong>City</strong> of Lucknow, is playing an<br />

important role in making human history. He said that<br />

the judges of different countries would carry back home<br />

the Lucknow message and apprise their people on the<br />

issue.Former President of Mauritius, H.E. Mr<br />

Cassam Uteem, who was amongst the UNESCO Peace<br />

prize jury, said that Justice Weeramantry’s<br />

recommendation was so well presented by CMS that it<br />

won unanimous decision of the jury.<br />

H.E. Mr Cassam Uttem, later presented ‘Lucknow<br />

Peace Prize’ to Hon’ble Mr B. J. Odoki, Chief Justice<br />

of Uganda and ‘Peace Visionary Award’ to Dr T. P.<br />

Amerasinghe, President, Institute on World<br />

Problems, WCPA, Sri Lanka in recognition of their<br />

life-long efforts for World Unity and support to CMS<br />

students’ appeal. Chief Justice of Swaziland, Hon’ble<br />

Mr Justice <strong>Ja</strong>cobus P Annandale said that it was the<br />

duty of the world judiciary to mobilize the law abiding<br />

people to work for a united world in which the future<br />

generations could live peacefully and fairlessly. He<br />

further told that the people have acknowledged the power<br />

of judiciary by looking up to it for justice it was the<br />

moral duty of the judges to come up to their exceptations<br />

and extend its support for establishing a world parliament<br />

and world government. He also expressed the view that<br />

the world judiciary is the people's last hope for peace in<br />

the world. He was of the opinion that a united world<br />

judicairy was in a position to do so.<br />

children for suggesting solutions for world problems.<br />

Himachal Pradesh, said that law should be based on<br />

human values which are the basis of our very existence.<br />

which has always underlined the importance of<br />

Vasudhaiv Kutumbkam. Mr Ashok Nigam, Additional<br />

Solicitor General of UP said that the voice raised by<br />

31,000 CMS students on behalf of 2 billion children of<br />

Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal. — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.


CMS BULLETIN - 7TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE OF CHIEF JUSTICES OF THE WORLD JANUARY 2007 (5)<br />

World Judiciary Summit 2006<br />

7 th International Conference of Chief Justices of the World and<br />

Global Symposium: 'Towards a New World Civilization'<br />

the world would not go in vain. Echoing similar<br />

sentiments, Chief Justice of High Court of<br />

Jharkhand, Mr Justice M. Karpaga Vinayagam, said<br />

that entire humanity is one big family and we all are the<br />

children of one God. Our law should also be one. He<br />

said that if we think and do good, the good will<br />

automatically come back to us.<br />

Chief Justice of Uganda, Hon’ble Mr. Justice B.<br />

J. Odoki said that we have to build a culture of peace<br />

for which we will have to ban accumulation, production<br />

and use of weapons of mass destruction including<br />

nuclear, biological and chemical weapons; promote<br />

peaceful co-existence and respect for unity in diversity;<br />

foster respect for international law and treaty obligation;<br />

protect basic human rights including rights of women<br />

and children and promote social justice and sustainable<br />

development.Chief Justice of Malta, Hon’ble Mr<br />

Justice Vincent A De. Gaetano said that children all<br />

over the world are similar in nature. They are threatened<br />

not just by the impending disasters of war but also by<br />

the deteriorating environment. For tackling these<br />

problems an International Law is the most urgent<br />

"No peace without unity, no unity without justice,<br />

no justice without international law" - is the message<br />

requirement of the time. UN has given all kinds of rights<br />

to children for their safety but for implementing them<br />

an enforceable international law is required. Hon'ble<br />

Justice Top Bahadur Magar, Judge, Supreme Court<br />

of Nepal spoke on child labour and juvenile delinquency.<br />

He extended his full support to the International Law.<br />

Chief Justice of Benin Hon’ble Justice Arsene K.<br />

Capo Chichi extended his support for a World<br />

Parliament to tackle problems of malnutrition and diseases<br />

in children. Addressing the august gathering Arjun<br />

Kingdon, a student from UK, urged the world judiciary<br />

to listen to the call made by 31,000 CMS students. Citing<br />

some examples like the drought situation in Rajasthan<br />

and Mid Day Meal Scheme etc. where Supreme Court<br />

of India intervened beyond its jurisdiction to protect the<br />

rights of humans, he said that judiciary has the ability to<br />

change life for better and therefore it should come<br />

forward to safeguard the humanity.<br />

Chief Justice of Latvia, Hon’ble Mr Justice<br />

Andris Gulans commended CMS for initiating such an<br />

important topic like the future of world’s children. He<br />

said the problem however is not only of children’s future<br />

but of the entire humanity living on this earth. He said<br />

that instead of trying to bring peace by each country<br />

spending so much on defense, we should all unite and<br />

find a peaceful solution. Former Director of CBI and<br />

Director, National Human Right Commission, Mr<br />

D R Kaarthikeyan also expressed similar sentiments<br />

saying that the most important human right is the right<br />

to live but how to live is a question which can be<br />

answered only through money and resources. The right<br />

to livelihood therefore becomes most important. He said<br />

that the enormous expenditure incurred on arms and<br />

ammunitions can very conveniently be diverted to provide<br />

food and shelter to a large number of population.<br />

Member of Parliament from South Africa, Ms<br />

Fatima Chohan, said that peace education is important<br />

for children because it is the children who would change<br />

the society. She, however, added that besides peace<br />

education, children should also be taught about<br />

democracy. We needed to educate children to get involved<br />

in matters of their own interest and not run after<br />

economic prosperity alone, she said. President of<br />

Institute on World Problems, Sri Lanka, Dr T P<br />

Amerasinghe said that we must all adopt the earth<br />

constitution. Peace Promoter from USA, Mr Benton<br />

Musslewhite came out with a proposal of ‘One World’.<br />

Responding to CMS students' call on behalf of 2<br />

billion children of the world, Judge, Supreme Court<br />

"Our strength lies in unity!" Group of participants<br />

at the Global Symposium<br />

of Belize, Hon'ble Mr Justice Samuel Lungole Awich<br />

assured the students that the judiciary would certainly<br />

support them in word and deed. Chief Justice of<br />

Seychelles, Hon’ble Mr Justice Vivekanand Allear<br />

stressed the need for an International Criminal Court<br />

capable of resolving international disputes and crimes.<br />

He said that it should have an impartial judiciary, each<br />

party should have right to present its case and there<br />

should not be any intervention from any superpower.<br />

On the concluding day peace promoter from<br />

France, Dr (Ms) Liliane Metz released a charter on<br />

behalf of CMS students to declare CMS a world territory.<br />

This meant that CMS students’ security and welfare<br />

would be linked to the security and welfare of all schools<br />

of world and they would work with all schools of the<br />

world for establishing a world rule of law under a<br />

democratically elected world federal authority. This also<br />

meant that without renouncing any of their duties and<br />

rights towards their own country or region it should be<br />

declared that CMS students’ territory would be a world<br />

territory and linked to the entire world.<br />

The 7th International Conference of Chief Justices<br />

of the World concluded on hopeful notes. All the jurists<br />

unanimously agreed that peace education should be given<br />

a place of importance in all school curriculum and<br />

students of law should also be apprised of the<br />

International Law. The legal experts assured that they<br />

would definitely apprised their country men about the<br />

outcome of the conference and vigourously campaign<br />

for world unity and world peace. Former Joint<br />

Secretary of Law, Govt. of UP, Mr R. C. Gupta<br />

released the resolution made by the participating Chief<br />

Participants of the Symposium declaring the need to<br />

reform and strengthen the UNO<br />

Justices, judges, legal luminaries and peace promoters<br />

as ‘Lucknow Declaration.’<br />

Global Symposium<br />

While the conference of Chief Justices of the world<br />

was being held the Global Symposium for Civil Society<br />

Organizations was simultaneously discussing ways and<br />

means for yet another important issue, “Towards a New<br />

World Civilization”. There were six themes of the<br />

symposium on which presentations and workshops were<br />

held by eminent persons involved through various<br />

organizations located at different regions of the world<br />

and working tirelessly for peace. Deliberations were held<br />

on 6 themes including (i) Structure of global democracy,<br />

(ii) Education grass root movements and role of civil<br />

society in building a ‘New world civilization,’ (iii) Nuclear<br />

disarmament, sustainable development and world peace,<br />

(iv) Inter faith, inter- religion dialogue and conflict<br />

resolution, (v) Human rights (Including Women’s rights<br />

and children’s rights) and (vi) Role of media in shaping<br />

a New World Civilization. New dimensions and creative,<br />

thoughtful and innovative ideas were discussed for laying<br />

the foundation of a nuclear-free, democratic, sustainable,<br />

just and peaceful New World Civilization.<br />

Some comments...<br />

Permanent good can never be the outcome of untruth and violence. — Mahatma Gandhi<br />

…the culture of peace has become the hallmark of this institution<br />

and the couple behind its success deserves world recognition.<br />

For having striven to inculcate peace in the minds of so many<br />

upcoming generations during 45 long years, for innovative<br />

approach to education for peace in children and young people,<br />

for mustering world support for global peace, I propose the<br />

names of Mr and Mrs <strong>Ja</strong>gdish Gandhi to the appropriate<br />

authority for the next Nobel Peace Prize.<br />

H.E. Mr Cassam Uteem, Former President of Mauritius<br />

I am sure that I speak for all who have travelled from different<br />

parts of the world to attend this conference that their presence<br />

here is a manifestation of their goodwill and support for<br />

Mr Gandhi in the realization of his vision.<br />

Mr Justice Ade Renner-Thomas,<br />

Chief Justice of Sierra Leone<br />

The power to wound and divide and the power to heal and save<br />

are both in man. It is the thought that makes him do one or the<br />

other. Therefore let us all, in close association, intensify our<br />

joint effort with honesty and determination in the implementation<br />

of International Laws.<br />

Mr Justice Top Bahadur Magar,<br />

Judge, Supreme Court, Nepal<br />

We judges are enjoyned to have vision instead of mere sight, to<br />

listen beyond mere understanding. It is our duty to restore life<br />

to our planet, our nations, families and children.<br />

Mr Justice <strong>Ja</strong>cobus P Annandale,<br />

Chief Justice(Acting), Swaziland<br />

Good ideas without champions never mature. The establishment<br />

of enforceable international law is a good idea whose hour has<br />

come. We must accept to be champions for this great idea. Let<br />

us resolve to ensure that the idea matures and becomes reality.<br />

Mr Justice B J Odoki, Chief Justice of Uganda<br />

We wholeheartedly join our voice to children’s rights to a safe<br />

and healthy world and commend the students’ appeal of CMS<br />

on behalf of world’s 2 billion children and generations.<br />

Ms Justice T S Amarsaikhan, Chief Justice, Mongolia<br />

If we are true to our role as protectors of our Constitutions, we<br />

will help your petition to become a reality.<br />

Mr Justice Prof. Abdul Salam Azimi,<br />

Chief Justice, Afghanistan<br />

We are members of one big family inhabiting a common<br />

planet….That is the lesson that CMS has been striving to teach<br />

to its many thousands of students and by their example to teach<br />

to educational institutions worldwide. This is a place of<br />

pioneering vision from which the message should go out to all<br />

educational institutions everywhere that there is a wonderful<br />

rainbow of hope shining out there towards which we should all<br />

reach, rather than have our vision tied to the ground through<br />

our petty individual desires and narrow interests.<br />

CMS education is a vitally important example of education<br />

formulated to recreate rather than merely reproduce the world.<br />

It is an inspiring evidence that education may be employed to<br />

foster hope and truly constructive change – change which must<br />

begin with our children when they are still children, full of hope<br />

and possibility.<br />

Phillip Wagner, Founder-Director,<br />

CMS is a model school for entire South Asia. It should continue<br />

imparting the education of peace because this practice needs to<br />

spread all over the world.<br />

Please keep the record, and try to globalize such an amazing<br />

programme. I as a participant from Somalia, a country<br />

disturbed by civil war and political unrest, believe that its only<br />

solution is peace education.<br />

Ali Said Omar Ibrahim, Chairman,<br />

Centre for Peace and Democracy, Somalia<br />

The earnest desire is the first step towards achievement —but<br />

only the first. CMS is taking a second step. The whole world<br />

needs to follow. CMS has the responsibility to spread its example.<br />

Grass root movements can create better political approach in<br />

all countries of the world. Working with small steps this way,<br />

I believe, one day we will find a way to co-exist.<br />

Dr Joan Bargur, peace promoter, Israel<br />

I have got an excellent impression of CMS. I would like to send<br />

all German Secretaries of Education to CMS to learn a lesson<br />

on education – and all German politicians too.<br />

CMS BULLETIN - ANNUAL EXAMINATION SCHEME JANUARY 2007 (6)<br />

Inhabitants of the earth have to<br />

suffer pangs of pain at the birth of<br />

a New World Civilization<br />

— <strong>Ja</strong>gdish Gandhi, Founder-Manager, CMS<br />

Today, the earth’s inhabitants are suffering pangs<br />

of pain as a New World Civilization is taking birth. Just<br />

as a mother undergoes tremendous pain and suffering<br />

at child birth she bears with it to bring the child on<br />

earth, in the same way, the earth is undergoing a period<br />

of stress and transformation . Before Krishna was born<br />

his seven of his born earlier died at the cruel hands of<br />

Kansa, the king of Mathura and uncle of Lord Krishna.<br />

Krishna’s mother Devaki witnessed the cruel slaughter<br />

of her seven sons by her own brother. This is the age<br />

of Kalyug. After Kalyug, again the age of truthfulness<br />

or Satyug will come. This Satyug is preceded by the<br />

immense pain experienced at the end of Kalyug.<br />

When Ram was to go to Lanka to save his wife,<br />

Sita, from the clutches of demon king Ravana, he needed<br />

to construct a bridge on the ocean connecting the<br />

southern tip of India with Sri Lanka. Now, even the<br />

birds and animals started putting pebbles and stones in<br />

water for the bridge. Every one wanted to contribute<br />

to this noble and worthy cause and they all knew that<br />

their funny attempts would not construct the bridge on<br />

the ocean. It would be made only with the blessings of<br />

the Almighty God. So for any noble task to be<br />

successful, we need the blessings of God Almighty.<br />

HEALTH COLUMN<br />

Making Magic<br />

from Nutrition<br />

Threpto who is a young boy of<br />

15, is an average student who<br />

the teachers say has the<br />

potential but is not utilizing it.<br />

Threpto attends classes, sometimes gets bored<br />

of studying. He has a few favorite subjects and<br />

also attends tuitions. He would like to do well and<br />

works hard for it. He has some interest in football<br />

and cricket, but again is an average player.<br />

In his heart, Threpto would like to turn his world<br />

around. He wants to show his teachers, he can<br />

do it, he desires to make his parents proud and<br />

most of all he believes he can do it. He dreams<br />

that he will be the winner of the match and be<br />

lauded by the whole team. He shall be on the<br />

stage to receive that topper’s trophy.<br />

In comes into Threpto’s life a small booklet telling<br />

him how he can change his whole life. It shows<br />

him how just 2 words – JUNK & NUTRITION play<br />

such a significant role in his life. How the first<br />

word is PREVENTING him from being all he can<br />

be, where he wants to be and how the other<br />

can catapult him into the very spot he desires to<br />

be in.<br />

Threpto decides to delve deeper into this mystical<br />

world and reads on to unravel the meaning of<br />

The cold wave has hit the town and all you<br />

youngsters would be warming up by playing<br />

your games and sports.<br />

What you require to recover from your hard<br />

play is a power kick to recharge your batteries<br />

and get you going for the latter part of the day.<br />

So here comes your way a potent mix of a life<br />

giving fruit and the king of nuts.<br />

It is the winner's combination of Anar and<br />

Almonds.<br />

The Anar and its seeds are strong antioxidants<br />

with anti-inflammatory properties helping<br />

your body recover from fatigue and healing<br />

wounds.<br />

It is your blood builder and a marvelous kidney<br />

tonic. The seeds of the fruit are rich in minerals<br />

and vitamins.<br />

The Almond is loaded with nutritional<br />

benefits and is lip smackingly the sweetest of<br />

nuts.<br />

These magnesium rich nuts make the veins and<br />

Sweet, Tart and Super<br />

these 2 words. The first word now expands out<br />

to<br />

J – JUST<br />

U- USELESS<br />

N-NICK<br />

K-KNACKS<br />

What are these and how are they holding him<br />

back This is the query on Threpto’s mind.<br />

*The electrodynamic field permeating and<br />

surrounding all objects, whether living or non<br />

living can be visualized photographically by<br />

exposing film to the object in the midst of a high<br />

intensity electromagnetic field. This method is<br />

known as Kirlian photography and is done using<br />

a KIRLIAN CAMERA.<br />

The next page completely shocks him as he reads<br />

that the very foods which he thought are tasty<br />

and delicious are actually combinations of<br />

denatured, devitalized and demineralised items.<br />

He recalls now that his favourite foods are<br />

Pakodas, Chowmein, Bhatura, Patties, Burgers,<br />

Potato Chips, Kurkure, Samosas, and Cold Drinks.<br />

This is what he finds written on the page.<br />

“YOUR FOOD BECOMES YOUR BODY’<br />

Threpto reads this magical key aloud and an<br />

electric current passes through him. This current<br />

passes right to his brain as if waking him from<br />

sleep. He is inspired to know more about the<br />

affects of these foods on his body and with that<br />

also how they affect his behaviour, temperament,<br />

performance and his personality.<br />

arteries breathe more easily and improve the flow<br />

of blood, oxygen and nutrients throughout the<br />

body.<br />

Potassium in the Almond is the nerve electrolyte<br />

and strengthens the heart muscle as well -raising<br />

your stamina levels.<br />

There is boosted capacity to breath, run,<br />

work, play and be active- when this dynamic<br />

combination is taken regularly and daily.<br />

Youngsters are best advised to take this mix 4<br />

hours after their lunch to be able to extract the<br />

readily available micronutrients in these foods.<br />

The fusion affect comes when Kandhari Anar<br />

(one) is mixed with 20 soaked Almonds (peel<br />

removed) and eaten together — absolutely well<br />

chewed and creamed with the help of saliva.<br />

Add: 6/193, Vipul Khand, Gomti Nagar, Lucknow<br />

Tel: 2391456, 9475410134<br />

Foods that are deep fried have a strong fatty<br />

layer around them which prevents them from<br />

being digested and absorbed by the stomach.<br />

Your body has to work double- triple times harder<br />

to break down these foods and even after all the<br />

effort it is unable to get much nourishment. The<br />

reason behind this is that underneath that fatty<br />

layer is Refined flour (MAIDA) – A SUBSTANCE<br />

TOTALLY DEAD AND DEVOID OF LIFE GIVING<br />

MATERIAL.<br />

Now with continuous input of these, the body<br />

gets tired, lethargic and sleepy. There is little<br />

active interest in sports, studies or any other<br />

activity. A deprived body starts to show irritability,<br />

moodiness, anger, INABILITY TO CONCENTRATE.<br />

WHAM!! Threpto like a flash realizes now why<br />

he feels the way he does! Threpto is now eager<br />

to know more about the second word as it<br />

promises to show him the way out. As he turns<br />

the page- out comes starlight, a rainbow of<br />

colours, vibrant hues and radiance. Threpto is<br />

spellbound for he has entered the Magical world<br />

of NURTITION.<br />

He reads on to see and understand that Nutrition<br />

stands for this whole Army of micronutrients<br />

which are active and working tirelessly to Build.<br />

Repair. Sustain his body and to provide him infinite<br />

energy to be able to do all he wants to.<br />

Threpto decides to have this Army work for him.<br />

He is after all looking for and does want a<br />

complete TURNAROUND- A MAKEOVER.<br />

As Threpto reads on, he finds that each colour<br />

and hue is that of the different fruits – Red Apples,<br />

Green Custard apples and Pears, Yellow<br />

Papayas, Bananas- polka dotted, Bright Golden<br />

Oranges and Pink Anars. There is also a whole<br />

range of vegetables with Red Tomatoes and<br />

Radishes. Yellow Carrots, Pink and White Onions,<br />

Deep Blood Red Beetroots and Greens of all<br />

shades – Lauki to Bhindi, with abundance of<br />

leafy greens like Methi, Palak and Lettuce.<br />

All these also give off the radiance of life — the<br />

aura which is scientifically recorded by the Kirlian<br />

Camera. The amount of radiance and the diameter<br />

up to which this light of light extends is directly<br />

related to the FRESHNESS of the food.<br />

BIO—FACT TIP<br />

Foods which can be eaten FRESH (Carrots,<br />

Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Beetroots and Lettuce)<br />

should not be cooked as it reduces their<br />

nutritive value.<br />

Threpto finds out that this Army of micronutrients<br />

requires constant replenishment. He gets to know<br />

that micronutrients go beyond simple proteins<br />

and carbohydrates which he has heard about.<br />

He is actually able to see this life force flowing<br />

from the vegetables and fruits to the blood directly<br />

where it is forming each and every body part<br />

ranging from the smallest cell and tissue to the<br />

largest organ.<br />

He is wonderstruck by this magical<br />

transformation of a Whole Wheat Roti into fine<br />

and smooth hair; the conversion of an apple to<br />

flawless skin and Mung sprouts into awesome<br />

muscles.<br />

Threpto now wants to apply this process on<br />

himself. He never wants to leave this world for<br />

he knows that this SHALL take him to his goal of<br />

being at the Highest.<br />

He decides to find out more about it. There are<br />

three principles he discovers:<br />

1. All foods are not the same. He has to find<br />

out which foods belong to NUTRITION and which<br />

to JUNK.<br />

2. The stomach is not a bag to fill with all Sorts<br />

of Combinations of food. There is a subtle<br />

chemistry which can make All the difference.<br />

FOOD COMBINATIONS affect BODY AND MIND<br />

CHEMISTRY.<br />

3. ‘NUTRITION=TASTE” — All the foods in this<br />

world are extremely delicious and he can have<br />

them without any restrictions.<br />

For Threpto, this is like a dream come true. He<br />

has tastiest foods in front of him, all he can eat<br />

— And the more he takes them the better he shall<br />

be. He is now raring to go.<br />

He starts the practical application of these 3<br />

principles and finds — LO and BEHOLD — the<br />

transformation begins right from DAY – ONE.<br />

His energy starts to increase. He starts to play<br />

better in school. His teachers are amazed to find<br />

him blooming fresh and alert, going ahead of his<br />

friends in class. He has greater stamina and his<br />

muscular strength increases. No bully dare touch<br />

him now.<br />

His first tests after applying the principles show<br />

marked improvement.<br />

Threpto is now thoroughly enjoying himself. As<br />

he persists in learning more about this key word<br />

“NUTRITION”, his life takes a complete U-TURN.<br />

BIO-FACT TIP<br />

FOODS as produced by Nature are complete<br />

nutrition. They require no packing, preserving<br />

or artificial flavorings. Whole Wheat, Nuts like<br />

Almonds, Coconut, Grains like Chana, Green<br />

Peas and Dals like Mung can change your life<br />

when eaten in the correct combinations.<br />

Within a year, he has increased in strength, health<br />

and stamina. His results have peaked and he<br />

ranks first in his class. He is the centre of<br />

attraction in the class with accolades and<br />

applause from teachers and friends. Threpto’s<br />

moments of pride comes when he goes on to<br />

stage to collect the award with his parents for<br />

scoring the maximum marks.<br />

Threpto used this magical world of “NUTRITION”<br />

to change his life.<br />

2 nd International Young Mathematicians’ Convention<br />

organized by CMS, Gomtinagar<br />

The young mathematicians should<br />

go down to the tiniest details and<br />

increase their skills. They should<br />

also make firm resolve to use their<br />

knowledge for the betterment of<br />

humanity and for making the earth<br />

a happy place to live upon.<br />

Students of 14 countries of the<br />

world went full swing into heavy<br />

competition displaying their<br />

mathematical abilities during the 4<br />

days of the Convention. Besides<br />

competing, the young people also<br />

honed up their maths skills by<br />

interacting with experts from USA,<br />

Taiwan, Philippines and other<br />

countries. The written rounds of<br />

the junior and senior quiz contests<br />

were held on the first day. The<br />

junior quiz was called Brain<br />

Teasers while the senior quiz was<br />

called Brain Buzz. Quiz master<br />

Mr Barry O’ Brien not only<br />

conducted the excellent quiz<br />

session, he made maths seem<br />

doubly interesting interspersing it<br />

with music and wit. Children<br />

loved every minute of the quiz and many<br />

of them came up with answers at<br />

lightning speed.<br />

In the Maths Relay, students sat<br />

in rows of three—one behind the other.<br />

Each student was given a different<br />

question. The first one solved his<br />

question and passed it back to the<br />

second. The second one could answer<br />

his question only after he got the first<br />

one’s answer. Then, he passed on the<br />

answer to the third partner. The third<br />

member needed the second one’s<br />

answer to complete his question. The<br />

final answer was passed on to the<br />

proctor. So maths was combined with<br />

games and it was learning with great<br />

fun. The workshops were organized<br />

in mathematics for junior and senior<br />

students as well as the team leaders.<br />

Experts like Prof Wen Hsien Sun<br />

from Taiwan, Dr Simon L Chua of<br />

the Philippines and Mr Tim Sanders<br />

of USA taught new problem-solving<br />

techniques to the students arousing<br />

great interest in them. They also trained<br />

the teachers of maths to making the<br />

subject more enjoyable and fun for<br />

children. In the individual contests,<br />

around 429 participants appeared and<br />
