Quite a while ago I went to the closing ceremony of the World Harmony Run in London. I didn't get chance to post an entry at the time.

I took some photos but there is a better selection of photos here at the World Harmony Run website
The ceremony included various musical performances and short speeches about the aims of the run and its ideals.
The performers included two young Tibetan Buddhist monks, Lobzang Padma (25) and Lobzang Samdup (32) of Tashi Lhunpo Monastery in south India, contributed to this event by playing rDhungchen, a long Tibetan horn, to greet the arrival of the international runners at the British Museum.

A poem by Sri Chinmoy about Harmony
Look in the mirror And what you see in yourself, Try to see in others. If you see perfection in your life, Then see perfection in others. If you see imperfection in yourself And forgive yourself for your imperfection, Then try also to forgive others Who have the same imperfection. The experience of oneness In darkness or light Brings about harmony
