Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1501 to 2000
~ Idea 1534 ~
22 September 1998

During the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights this year, the UN should place on its agenda the creation of a World Court of Human Rights. There exists now a great international precedent: the European Court of Human Rights which protects the rights of all citizens of the 16 countries of the European Union. A similar court is needed for all countries of the world if human rights are to become universal in their application and enforcement.

If the UN does not take that decision, the European Union should establish an informal international study group of countries willing to work on the draft of such a World Court.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,  
Volume II Chapter 13 - Of Speaking
Seen in the four infinites, human life becomes a tremendous privilege.  We could as well have never been born and never received the gift of life in the vast universe and eternity.  We must therefore be "good" cosmic units, children of God, in order to merit our lives and contribute to a higher level of evolution.  This ancient religious truth is beginning to reappear in the science of "genetic codification" and in the work of the United Nations, the first global genetic memory bank.

What has for centuries
raised humanity above the beast is not the cudgel butan
inward music;
the irresistible power of unarmed truth,
 the powerful attraction of its example.
-- Boris Pasternak

Inspiration of the Day:
Two weeks after D-Day, Col. Jack Leroy Tueller's made a decision to play his trumpet. The last remaining German sniper threatening his unit was so moved that he couldn't shoot, and surrendered the next morning. By choosing to play "his love song" Jack had sensed the fear and loneliness in that sniper, and had recognized that he too had that within himself. Now 90 years old, in this two minute video, Jack shares his priceless story with us. [Video]

Be The Change:
In your next moment of conflict,
whether large or small,
turn to your own native expression of beauty.
