| | | [GMW #1655] University For Peace To Develop A Total Science, A Total Strategy And Total Methodology Of Peace For The World | Wednesday 4 February 2009, Editor: Easy | RobertMuller.org | Contact | Subscribe | Unsubscribe | | GMW Blogs: English | Portuguese | Spanish | Tagalog | Dutch | | Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500 | ~ Idea 269 ~ 5 April 1995 Napoleon did not send his military trainees to Universities. He created military academies where they were taught a total science of war, a total strategy of war and a total methodology of war. The German General Clausewitz perfected that system in the 19th century by proclaiming that there was no limit to the use of violence. Since then we have hundreds of military "academies" in the world teaching this, with the recent amendment that the objective is no longer war but "defense". There exists nothing similar for peace. After my forty years of UN service I thought that academia had done its job and developed a science, a strategy and a methodology of peace. There exists nothing of the sort. I have therefore decided to throw all my weight behind the first University for Peace on the planet, in demilitarized Costa Rica, and to develop a total science, a total strategy and total methodology of peace. Wherever the military are the peacemakers will be, from outer-space and star-wars to atomic and genetic warfare, which will be replaced with star-peace and atomic and genetic peace. You have your monuments, and medals to warriors, we will have them for peacemakers. This is why governments are so scared of this University: only 32 of 185 have ratified its statute and only three have provided it with minimal help * |
| Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume III Chapter 5 Of Adulthood | In the middle of adult life, one sometimes feels that our ambitions, efforts and beliefs are very confused, not right anymore. One seems lost in a jungle. The whole being longs for light, for an open sky, for the deeper truths of life. Then begins the royal road towards enlightenment and wisdom. Then the arrow of life points back again to the dreams of our childhood and youth. It is the beginning of understanding the cosmic divine, evolutionary, natural meaning of our integral individual human life. * | | Do your best and then relax. Let things go on in a natural way, rather than force them. Paramahansa Yogananda www.gratefulness.org WORD FOR THE DAY
