[GMW #2712] World Peace Makers Incentive


[GMW #2712] World Peace Makers Incentive Idea Dream -Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3105 ~
Dear God,
Why didn't you decide that those who want to achieve world peace and make your Earth a paradise would live longer, let us say ten or twenty years more?  With such an incentive they would have a better chance to achieve these objectives.

God:
"How can you be so blind?  I did it already: for example I saved you several times during the war; you are still alive and healthy at the age of seventy-seven; and I have made all great peacemakers immortal.  What else do you want?"

I:
You have a point but why did you let so many great peacemakers get killed, your own son for example and others like Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Dag Hammarskjöld and many more?

Human evolution began
when the first human looked up
at the stars and wondered.

I've learned that people will forget what you said,
people will forget what you did, but people will
never forget how you made them feel.
~ Maya Angelou

Maya Angelou: Still I Rise
From the moment it was published in 1978, "Still I Rise" has been one of Maya Angelou's best-loved and most influential poems. It has inspired figures as diverse as Bill Clinton and Tupac Shakur and has become a staple in the canon of American poetry. Dr. Angelou's directness and candor affirms the power of individual strength over collective history, as well as to the power of individual lives to shape our shared future. Watch and listen as the great poet introduces and recites her paean to resilience and dignity. { read more }

Be The Change
Refuse to be catalogued or stereotyped.
Resolve to be more than the world may perceive you to be. Rise.

[GMW #2711] Canned Food, Soft Drink & Alcohol Civilization Declines


[GMW #2711] Canned Food, Soft Drink & Alcohol Civilization Declines Idea Dream -Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3104 ~
I wondered a lot of late why the UN population projections for the year 2050 show a decline of 40 million people from 1.2 billion in 2000 to 1.16 billion in the western countries.  I thought that it was mainly due to the West becoming very sensitive to the world population explosion.

But the news comes from Denmark that young men recruited into the army show a substantial decline in sperm production compared with their predecessors ten years ago.  Does this mean that we are losing our reproduction capacity due to scientific interference with our nutrition perhaps?  Is the canned food, soft drinks and alcohol civilization responsible for it?  After the environmental crisis will we now see a human reproduction crisis in the West?  Well, these are other subjects to be taken up by the proposed WAAST.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II Chapter 2 Of Happiness
Decide to be Happy

    Render others happy
    proclaim your joy
    love passionately your miraculous life
        do not listen to promises
        do not wait for a better world
        be grateful for every moment of life
    switch on and keep on
    the positive buttons
    in yourself, those marked optimism,serenity, confidence,
        positive thinking, love
    pray and thank God every day
    meditate - smile - laugh
    whistle - sing - dance
    look with fascination at everything
    fill your lungs and heart with liberty
    be yourself fully and immensely
    act like a king or queen unto Death
    feel God in your body, mind,
        heart, and soul
    and be convinced of eternal life and resurrection.

When we persevere with the help of a gentle discipline,
we slowly come to hear the still,
small voice and to feel the delicate breeze, and so to come to
know the presence of Love.

[GMW #2710] Night Stars - Not DeSolarization


[GMW #2710] Night Stars - Not DeSolarization Idea Dream -Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3103 ~
One subject for the World Agency on Adverse Science and Technology (WAAST) would be:

the distortion of the night and day reality and its effects on humans beings, a study to be made from the polar to the temperate and equatorial zones.  In most western countries, the notion of night is already substantially eroded by electricity, radio, television and night professions.  Are we going to lose our immemorial life relation with the sun?  To 'dehumanization' and 'denaturing' will we have to add the 'desolarization' of the human species?  Solarization through 'vacations' and tourism was seized as a source of immense profit by capitalism to the point that tourism is now being accused of destroying a good part of nature, another subject to be taken up by WAAST.

Volume II Chapter 2 Of Happiness
A young man who read my book Most of All, They Taught Me Happiness  wrote to me that my concluding poem summarized the entire book and that I should publish it as a card for widest possible distribution.  I did and it went around the world in several languages, bringing happiness to many.  Here it is in tomorrow's Good Morning World.

[GMW #2709] Fundamentalist Capitalism Capitulates Death Bringing Biocidal, Terracidal Ideology


[GMW #2709] Fundamentalist Capitalism Capitulates Death Bringing Biocidal, Terracidal Ideology Idea Dream -Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3102 ~
The preceding also raises this question: will not the second great ideology born from science and technology in the 19th century be the undertaker, the death-bringing biocidal, terracidal ideology of the current humanity?  Communism has already capitulated.  Fundamentalist capitalism must too, in view of upcoming catastrophes.

Finding Time: Slowness is an Act of Resistance
"The four horseman of my Apocalypse are called Efficiency, Convenience, Profitability, and Security, and in their names, crimes against poetry, pleasure, sociability, and the very largeness of the world are daily, hourly, constantly carried out. These marauding horsemen are deployed by technophiles, advertisers, and profiteers to assault the nameless pleasures and meanings that knit together our lives and expand our horizons." In this lyrical, thought-provoking essay Rebecca Solnit discusses what we lose with modernity's speed -- and what can be reclaimed by a return to slowness. { read more }

Be The Change
Today make a conscious effort to slow down and
savor the moments.

[GMW #2708] Nurturing The Seventh Generation And Beyond With Out DeHumanizing Or DeNaturing


[GMW #2708] Nurturing The Seventh Generation And Beyond With Out DeHumanizing Or DeNaturing Idea Dream -Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3101 ~
It is quite normal, quite human that we are immensely grateful for the discoveries of science and technology: e.g. electricity, heating, health, nutrition, transportation, longer lives.  All our 'natural' senses and organs: eyes, ears, hands, legs, brains have been extended immensely: eyes with telescopes, microscopes, television; ears with radio, telephone; hands with machines; legs with trains, cars and airplanes; brains with universities, computers, etc.

Only the 300 million indigenous people in 5000 tribes in 70 countries, had their doubts about it: what will be the effects of all that on the 7th generation to come (about 500 years)?

Well this question is beginning to arise in the western world too:

- the negative effects of automobiles and aviation contributing to 12,000 tons of carbon dioxide into the air every minute;

- the effects of better health in the poor countries which decreased the mortality of their children and produced an incredible population explosion, with far-reaching effects;

- television which is affecting the immemorial, natural relations between parents and children, grandparents and grandchildren;

- the sudden diminishing of the western population, less prone and capable of reproduction.

And what will be the long-term effects of computers, robotics, biological engineering, nano-technology, etc?

The time has come, in my view, to create a world agency or for UNESCO to look into the adverse effects of human innovations, sciences and technologies and their marketing on the natural characteristics of humans and their transmission through reproduction and genes over time.  Are we witnessing evolutionary progress or a dehumanization of humans, except for the indigenous and 'under-developed' peoples of this world?

This new emerging phenomenon must be looked into seriously by humanity.  The environmental crisis might be only a first signal of it.  The challenges might be much deeper, a truly evolutionary phenomenon on a unique life-endowed planet in an evolving universe.

[GMW #2706b] Life Exuberance, Inspiration For Further Evolution Not Superiority Over Nature & Others



[GMW #2706] Life Exuberance, Inspiration For Further Evolution Not Superiority Over Nature & Others
Idea Dream -Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3099 ~
I:
Dear Earth, when I observe the wonderful, miraculous nature of Costa Rica I ask myself sometimes: why did you produce and allow the evolution of humans and their big brains which are now endangering nature with atomic missiles and power plants, wastes, armaments and thousands of different, damaging ways they call progress.  I will never understand that they let a species become extinct every five hours and still call themselves intelligent, superior, developing, progressing and constructive!  Why didn't you stop evolution with vegetation and animals, but not humans?

The Earth:
"Well, since my round body turning around the sun and receiving its energy has different climatic conditions I needed to produce microbes, crawling and flying insects, birds and animals to continue the life of nature according to season and location.  Costa Rica, where you live, has the most favorable conditions for life exuberance: its animals and humans were in proper harmony with my nature.

Humans in the hard and cold conditions of the northern climates had to develop 'intelligence', 'imagination', 'inventiveness', 'creativity', 'hard work' and 'progress' which went up to their head.  They considered themselves to be superior to all nature.  They then invaded the rest of the world and are now destroying me thoughtlessly, unintelligently and unnecessarily.  That is the story."

I:
But can't you stop them?  What do you do?

The Earth:
"Well, there are growing numbers of humans like you who are aware of the impending disasters and have become 'environmentalists', i.e. beings animated by the soul, the anima, the life forms and cycles of all life on my body and of my own life and functioning.  This is why I have brought you and others like you from the United Nations in a cold northern climate to Costa Rica's sunny exuberant nature to be part of my salvation and further evolution.  I expect you and many others like you to be the new, most advanced life forms on my surface, to be my miracle makers.  I also made sure that the Earth Council created by the 1992 Rio de Janeiro Conference on the Environment would be located in Costa Rica on the grounds of the UN University for Peace.  You will become the most important, inspiring place on my surface."

One must try to become what the Hindus call a Trikaldarshi and a Trilokonath:
one who lives happily in the past, in the present and in the future;
one who lives on the ground,
in the mind and in the heavens.
