Member of the Peace Meditation at the UN conveys good wishes to the new Under-Secretary General and Administrator of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).

15 July 1993

Dear Mr. Speth,

On behalf of the Peace Meditation Group at the United Nations, I would like to offer our very best wishes for your success and fulfilment as Administrator of UNDP. With your new vision, wisdom and spirit you will be able to lead this great world service organization in an unprecedented way, to the benefit of both the staff and the family of developing countries.

Enclosed is an inspirational message selected from the extensive writings of Sri Chinmoy, leader of the Peace Meditation Group. Many of Sri Chinmoy’s short poems and aphorisms are addressed to the second person as though meant specifically for the reader, and this one seemed to us to speak to you in your momentous new role. We hope you will find it encouraging, and we would like to offer you other such messages occasionally as an expression of our support.

With admiration and highest regards ,

Yours sincerely ,

Nemi Fredner
