Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1308 ~
8 February 1998
The day will soon come when no one will be able to find a pound of sugar, or salt or flour in a food store. Marketing which is taught in Universities to the intelligentsia of young business people will make sure that everything is sold at higher prices in small packages, flasks and containers. Salt is being sold in small salt shakers with garlic taste, cinnamon taste and a whole series of other tastes. This is one more subject for the World Consumers Agency to tackle.

Daily Good
We have guided missiles and misguided men.
-- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. ~~~~ Good News of the Day: "We have not yet learned to make use of our most civilizing capacities: the creativity and wisdom we all have as our birthright. When even one person comes into full possession of these capacities, our problems are shown in their true light: they are simply the results of avoidable -- though deadly -- errors of judgment. Gandhi formulated a series of diagnoses of the modern world's seemingly perpetual state of crisis, which he called 'the seven social sins.' I prefer to think of them as seven social ailments, since the problems they address are not crimes calling for punishment but crippling diseases that are punishment enough in themselves. The first -- and the one we will focus on here -- is knowledge without character. It traces all our difficulties to a simple lack of connection between what we know is good for us and our ability to act on that knowledge." The late Gandhian scholar Eknath Easwaran shares further. http://premiere.whatcounts.com/t?ctl=16A692D:7ABA61CC19AE219F26BA82C4B32266E7B4B847859706E37D& ~~~~ Be The Change: "I believe that what self-centered men have torn down, men other-centered can build up. [...] I still believe that we shall overcome." An inspiring passage from MLK's Nobel acceptance speech. http://premiere.whatcounts.com/t?ctl=16A692E:7ABA61CC19AE219F26BA82C4B32266E7B4B847859706E37D&

~ Idea 1302 ~
2 February 1998
The communists must be happy that they got out of the power race and that the world crisis to come will not be attributable to them.

The US and its obsolete Earth-wide and sky-high business dream will have to bear the full responsibility of the nightmare.

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1297 ~
28 January 1998
All governments of the world should adopt a law that on at least one day each month the newspapers would not be allowed to have more than one page. This would save sizable forests in the world, diminish trash by huge amounts and provide more oxygen.

Which will be the first government to do it?

Volume II Chapter 11 - Of Gratitude
Sometimes when I see nature, people, cars, airplanes, buildings, I stop walking and I say to myself:
"What an incredible globe this is, turning at 1,666 kilometers per hour with so much life on it, with people standing on it, their heads pointing like antennae into all the directions of the universe, with leaves, plants, and algae avidly absorbing the sun's energy and giving us oxygen to breathe and nourishment. And to think that we are the only planet of our sun, and perhaps of the entire universe, to possess life!

How can we not stand in endless gratitude and awe before such a miracle?"

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1292 ~
23 January 1998
I recommend that the UN should launch a World Ideas Bank or Network, starting with an Ideas Office at the UN and in each of its specialized agencies and world programs. Officials in those units would channel the good ideas received to the appropriate Departments or officials and keep a record of follow-up and implementation.

Each year a report on ideas received and their implementation would be submitted by the UN Secretary General and the heads of the agencies to member governments, to non-governmental organizations and to the people.

This idea could be launched by the World Peoples' Assembly 2000.

"Use every letter you write, every conversation you have, every meeting you attend, to express your fundamental beliefs and dreams. 

Affirm to others the vision of the world you want. You are a free, immensely powerful source of life and goodness. 

Affirm it. Spread it. Radiate it. 

Think day and night about it and you will see a miracle happen: the greatness of your own life." 

-- Robert Muller, "Father of Global Education" , "Philosopher of the UN" and one of my most inspirational Better World Heroes was born on March 11, 1923. 

Be a hero for a Better World. 

We miss you Robert.

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1291 ~
22 January 1998
On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights a whole series of new human rights should be placed on the agenda of the United Nations. I have suggested a series of them in these 2000 ideas (see index). I would like also to stress the following major institutional reforms:

- create a World or UN Court of Human Rights on the model of the European Court of Human Rights;

- create regional courts of human rights on each continent.

[GMW #2412] Earthism and Humanism Take Precedence Over Nationalism [and Corporatism]

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1290 ~
21 January 1998
In all matters earthism and humanism must now be given precedence over nationalism. This is the imperative new phase of evolution. Nationalism is the gravest, costliest, retarding obstacle to human progress. It makes no sense any more except for its historical, cultural aspects which can be beautifully preserved and cherished as part of the world's diversity.

At the legal level, national law must give way to Earth Law and Universal Human Law. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights should be the first UN instrument to be given world legal enforcement through a World Court of Human Rights.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II Chapter 11 - Of Gratitude
How wonderful it is to be thanked, for example when I received this nice message from a reader on Valentine Day:
"Thank you for all you have done and are doing to bring the consciousness of God's peace and love to this world."

Carol wrote:
"Last year the library at school had a little book sale, I bought a copy of 'Paradise Earth.'

Robert's ideas are so relevant to what is occurring in this world today and
his optimistic perspective is very inspiring."

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1289 ~
20 January 1998
I suggest that all former Ambassadors, Permanent Representatives of nations to the UN should create a world association and offer their views to the General Assembly 2000 on how the UN should be strengthened, transformed or replaced by a better world organization. They should do that thinking for the future of their children and grandchildren.

Love is the beauty of the soul.
-- Saint Augustine


Dearest Barbara and GMW readers.

Robert's birthday is coming up soon, March 11th. 

His energy was a Pisces as mine. We are dreamers and love life because it is our lab and we get to explore, design, co-create, play, be inspired, love, teach and learn, like everyone. But it is precisely the IMAGINATION that in its own way set us apart from other beings. 

Imagination enable us to form and shape "realities" in our mind that can be later materialized. We can employ imagination in a very constructive way... 

Imagination IN love.  All possible worlds that we co-create with our imagination-in-love are incubated dreams and that's how we give birth to love. Using Robert's words, that's how we give birth to a better world.

The world of "facts" isn't the only world that exist. Give birth to LOVE with your imagination-in-love.  

This coming up March 11th, craft energy with your heart, intentionally. Set aside some time and dream... to give birth to a better world.

We love you Robert. Love never leaves us. :)



Love and light!
Katherine
