Guiding people to Intentional Community living

We at UEVN Federation subscribe to the following:
This declaration and encouragement not only validates all of the articles found in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, proclaimed on Dec. 10th, 1948, but also adds new elements that are more adapted to the age in which we live. If this rights were to be respected in its entirety in all countries of the world, according to our belief, humanity would, no doubt, make a giant leap forward towards a world of more freedom, equality, and brotherhood.
Article 1Every human being has a right to happiness. And his/her goal should always revolve around bringing more understanding, compassion, and love to others. Any group’s main preoccupation must be to see to it that its members’ needs are always fulfilled. Therefore, humans’ well being must become a priority in all spheres of their activities.
Article 2Every human being has the right to control his/her own body and, in full conscience, to choose his/her own sexuality. Under no circumstances should any mutilation, sexual or otherwise, be practiced on a non-adult person.
Article 3Each child has the right to be considered as a free individual who has rights. He/she has the right to freely choose the family with which he/she wishes to live as well as the type of education that he/she wishes to receive.
Article 4No religion should be imposed on a child. Consequently, a child should not be baptized, circumcised, or subjected to any ritual without his/her consent. Parents must wait until the child is old enough to understand and choose any religion that appeals to him/her and then adhere to it if he/she so wishes.
Article 5The education given to a child must focus on self-development and blossoming based on his/her aspirations and tastes. Respecting other’s freedom and peace must be his/her main concern. A child must learn, at a very young age, to love the world in which he/she lives and must be taught to open up to the outside world and live in harmony with other humans and nature.
Article 6Awakening the mind and the body go hand in hand, and an education based on techniques of meditation as well as the development of the senses must be applied and offered to all so that every member of humanity can develop and grow and so that respect and awareness becomes part of everyone’s marvelous potential. With the greatest respect for everyone’s philosophical and religious beliefs, these teachings must be non-religiously based.
Article 7Everyone has the right, during his/her life, to have enough to eat, wear decent clothes, have a place to sleep, and the right to receive an education even if he/she does not work. Anyone who works has the right to luxury, an indispensable tool to human progress. The degree of luxury would have to be proportional to the work done and/or to the contributions made to humanity.
Article 8Each person has the right to be born and to live in a healthy body and a healthy environment. Healthcare services, like safety services, must focus on prevention and benefit everyone. In addition, each person has the right to free medical services and support, which are necessary to maintain the best physical and psychological health. Euthanasia must be legal and regulated according to the right to refuse to physically suffer.
Article 9Each person has the right to develop and blossom according to his/her own desires and tastes without any racial, cultural, religious or sexual restrictions whatsoever. Public authorities must encourage everyone’s creativity and, for that matter, subsidise everyone’s initiatives, be they scientific, religious, cultural or artistic. Article 10Each human being has the right to engage in any type of relations with others as he/she wishes, be they of asexual, homosexual, polysexual or heterosexual nature provided that these relations are established between consenting adults, no matter how many adults are involved. These unions, and possible separations, must also be legally recognized by our society and free of any discrimination.
Article 11Each human being has the right to be respected for his/her religious convictions, no matter whether traditional, modern, old or New Age, as long as their religion teaches respect for all human beings.
Article 12An ethical committee must be set up to insure that the texts and practices of all religions ˆ including the dominant religions ˆ obey the rules of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights first, and then the Universal Charter of Human Rights. If any religion does not respect both declarations, it must be taken to court and tried especially if its texts and practices represent a threat for humanity. Any religious or ideological movement, be it a minority or not, has the right to be recognized as official even if its values greatly differ from the “moral standards” of any given society.
Article 13Everything must be in place to stimulate the development of Arts and all artistic expressions, whether they currently exist or not, or are yet to be created. This will allow the development of personal and collective harmony.
Article 14Everything must be in place to stimulate the development of Sciences. Scientific discoveries must be designed and oriented toward the improvement of every human being’s life conditions, not economically oriented, so that everyone can benefit from them without being discriminated against and so that everyone’s happiness is improved.
Article 15A free legal system for everyone must be set up and implemented by human society as well as a Planetary Tribunal for every individual or group to have access to under identical conditions. This should be aided by super computers to insure lack of biased, prejudice and a fair and egalitarian trial.
Article 16Society must create and maintain special places with high standard of living conditions in order to take care of very sick people and criminals. The death penalty must be abolished everywhere.
Article 17Everything must be done in order to respect and protect the environment; plants, animals, and all forms of life on Earth.
Article 18A World objective Government must be in place quickly and democratically. This government will focus mainly on Humanitarianism so that the well being of all humans will become its main concern as opposed to greed and power (as is currently the case).
a) This government will see to it that Human Rights are implemented and respected in all regions of the Earth. It will impose sanctions on regions that do not respect these Rights and will severely punish the ones responsible for whatever actions constitute a violation.b) This government will set up a World army to maintain Peace everywhere. This will guarantee a true, lasting Peace on the entire planet. Furthermore, a worldwide unconditional and complete disarmament policy must be immediately in place.c) This government will engage in a fair distribution to all humans of all the planet’s resources and this, without any racial, cultural, or religious discrimination.d) This government will set up a world currency as a temporary measure designed to favor and trigger the eventual and permanent removal of the need of money and all the economic depravities based on it.e) In order to guarantee communication between everyone on the planet, this government will also supervise and implement the teaching of a world language, such as ESPERANTO or any other one created by and with the collaboration of linguists and scientists worldwide representing every nation.f) Eventually all borders will be abolished and all artificial and political divisions imposed on land who will not be owned by anyone but shared |
