Contest Cognitive Requirement Meaning. A. Only poems dedicated to the actors, substance and the source of humanity global peace, to the Gandhian spherons are accepted for the Contest. B. They were discovered by the ingenious intuition of Mahatma Gandhi in 1927. The beginning of their scientific fundamental historical and sociological substantiation was laid by the Russian philosopher and sociologist Leo Semashko since 1975. It was continued by him in the international volunteer Gandhian Global Harmony Association (GGHA) since 2005, which basically completed it as a result of 17 years of its scientific research in the “Spherons Global Peace MegaScience” (SGPM) or in short: SPHERONICS. This peace science is a key intellectual resource for achieving and ensuring global peace of humanity in the 21st century. Without this science, it never existed in past history and will never be in future history until humanity masters its substance in the appropriate knowledge, consciousness, thinking and vision. C. The uniqueness of our Contest is determined by the uniqueness of its subject/topic - the innovative peace science, spheronics and its core - harmonious, nonviolent Gandhian spherons, by their social nature, genetics and Divine purpose, designed to ensure global peace in love and nonviolence, the only ones ensuring the survival and genesis of humanity. D. The Contest theme is outlined by the following key concepts thesaurus: Mahatma Gandhi as the spheronics father, Mahatma Gandhi and his discovery of spherons/varnas of non-violence, why world militarism “forgot” Gandhi’s spherons (?), spherons, spheronics, peace science, Spherons’ Global Peace Megascience, GGHA, GGHA 17th anniversary, GGHA peacemakers, GGHA "Security and Peace" Message, GGHA "Global Peace Strategy 2022", GGHA Peace Academy, harmonious civilization of spherons, social love of spherons, social equality of spherons, peace through nonviolence of spherons, ABC of spherons harmony, tetranet thinking of spherons, peace giants of the spheronics, the spherons tetrad will displace the nuclear triad, the spherons victory over the war is inevitable, how to learn the peace science (?), history and genesis of spherons, militarism versus spheronics, why there is a war science but there is no peace science (?), humanity’s survival is on the verge nuclear suicide, is possible only with the mind and thinking of spheronics, spheronics is an intellectual source of friendship between peoples instead of their eternal confrontation; and so on in the designated way. E. EVERY and similar concept of spheronics can be the theme and title of the author's poem (or aphorisms) that will be guaranteed to be accepted for participation in the Contest. The poet has the right, at his choice, to accompany each such poem with any other of his best poems, which will be published together with the Contest.

4. Mastering the Contest topic requires the following cognitive steps from each of its participants: The first, decisive step that provides everyone with the conviction of the spheronics truth is an INDEPENDENT STATISTICAL RESEARCH OF SPHERONS OF YOUR CITY or any social object according to the methodology in the book "Gandhica" (https://peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=848: pp.32-37) and according to its numerous examples of different levels from school and university to the country and humanity, which will require 2-3 hours, no more.
