Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1230 ~
22 November 1997

If I were the Secretary General of the United Nations I would change the name of the Administrative Committee of Coordination which brings him together every year twice with all the heads of the 32 specialized agencies and world programs of the UN. I would call it the Supreme Council of World Care, would use it as such and have its proceedings televised world-wide for the people to see. I would appeal to the people to send to this world cabinet meeting their ideas, dreams, wishes and proposals for a better world.

I would leave the house early in the morning to go to church and attend the mass at dawn, attended mostly by old people. There I was fascinated by the prayers, the playing of the organ by an old invalid and above all by the "elevation" of the host by the priest. That represented to me the consciousness and union with the heavens, the infinite, mysterious universe and God.

[GMW #2362] World Commission on the Ideal Earth and Humanity and Perfect Government for Our Evolution

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1233 ~
25 November 1997

I was glad to receive from Dr. John Hagelin, president of the third United States Party, the Natural Law Party, a book he has just written entitled Manual for a Perfect Government with the subtitle, How to Harness the Laws of Nature to Bring Maximum Success to Governmental Administration. I had sent him my first five hundred Ideas for a Better World but he did not have as yet idea 690 in which I recommend the holding of a UN World Conference or the establishment of a world commission on The Ideal Earth and Humanity in the 21st Century.

It may sound utopian but even if we do not get a clear answer we will learn a lot and move closer to it. Yes, Dr. Hagelin's book is the right book to publish on the eve of a new century and third millennium. We need more views on what a perfect government of this Earth and humanity should be at this crucial time of our evolution.

I couldn't understand that just across the river there were people called Germans whom we as French people were supposed to hate. Why were these borders between humans? We looked alike and they had names like Muller and Schneider which were the names of my father and mother. Why could the sun, the clouds, the birds, the winds, the moon cross the border freely and I could not?

WORD FOR THE DAY
People often say that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” and
I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that
you are the beholder.
This empowers us to find beauty in places
where others have not dared to look,
including inside ourselves.
-- Salma Hayek

Dearest Leland,

What a blessed man you are and how blessed I am to receive your LET US BEGIN AGAIN TOGETHER below.

I am forwarding your words to Good Morning World for our readers for their growth and change in the New Year!

My friends and I are rereading Robert's books The Birth of A Global Civilization and New Gensis.. which you mentioned as the way to create a united and peaceful world.

Love and may 2012 bring lasting peace and a world that works for all as we begin again together.

Barbara Muller

Rev. Leland Stewart, B.S.E., B.T.
Unity-and-Diversity World Council, Inc. 

LET US BEGIN AGAIN TOGETHER!!!
We the People hereby declare our interdependence - our connection
to the Source of All Life and to all life forms.  We affirm that diverse
individuals, groups, and networks are necessary for the creative
development of humanity; and that to strengthen UNITY-AND-DIVERSITY
throughout the universe is our individual responsibility and privilege.   

UDC's Declaration of Interdependence, Science and Spirituality, page 28 

This is the most powerful season of the year.  It is evolving in its meaning from that of a celebration for Christians alone, to where it is a sacred time for everyone, for those of every faith who wish to share with other faiths, to those who have no specific faith but who sense the need for all of us to come together and support the emergence of a global civilization that serves the well-being of all!

The Unity-and-Diversity World Council just held a Festival of Faiths last Sunday afternoon, December 18, at the Village Church and Interfaith Center in West Los Angeles.  There were fourteen co-sponsors of this event, and about the same number of faiths participated.  The purpose of the Festival was to celebrate the movement toward peace and justice, as well as the spirituality and uniqueness of each faith.  It also focused on a United Nations that serves the well-being and sacredness of planet earth and all its peoples.

It is time now to look at the deeper meaning of this Season and what it implies for each of us.  Today, traditionally Christmas Day, is becoming the day of new Genesis, of new birth.  Dr. Robert Muller, the late assistant Secretary General of the United Nations, has a book entitled The Birth of a Global Civilization.  Having gone through a great deal of personal struggle with the conflicting forces at work in Europe during the early 20th century, Dr. Muller decided to devote his life to the United Nations in creating a united and peaceful world.  His task has become our task, and it begins with our inward looking and discovering our particular role in helping bring about that kind of world.

The time between December 25th and January 1st needs to be one of inner reflection and decision-making, asking questions as to who we truly are and why we are here on planet earth at this time.  What can we personally do to help create peace and justice on earth as well as a sustainable environment.  How can we leave to our children and the world's children a planet based on a renewed sense of purpose and a global ethic that will sustain us into the unforeseen future?  

New Year's resolutions are an important part of our growth and development.  They are meant to be kept, so that our life truly does change for the better.  Having reflected upon our present life, what changes will we make to see that our future is more alive, fulfilled, and worthy of preservation?  We are in a time of revolution; values are rapidly shifting, and the ways of democracy are being brought forth around the world.  Let us make this revolution a time of personal and planetary transformation.

~ Idea 1234 ~
26 November 1997

The most fundamental human right after the right not to be killed must be the right to non-poverty, the right to life sustainment through basic necessities and education. We must achieve for all humans on this planet a Civilization of Fulfilled Basic Necessities. And why not the right to happiness?

I was born with a deep spirituality. When I was a child I looked at the stars, at the moon, at nature and at the whole Creation as miracles. I also considered human life to be a miracle. We spoke German in Alsace-Lorraine at the time and I used to say: "Das Leben ist göttlich, life is divine." I used this word because it was the biggest adjective I could find.

Economics of Happiness: The New Economy
Many people are facing their most significant economic challenges in generations. From the hardships of unemployment to the perils of mounting debt, worry about the health of a national economy that depends on consumerism and market success dominates our conversation. But what is the economy is really for? "We've had enough of the official mantra: Work more, enjoy less, pollute more, eat toxic foods and suffer illnesses, all for the sake of increasing the gross domestic product. Why not learn ways to work less and enjoy it more; spend more time with our friends and families; consume, pollute, destroy and owe less; and live better, longer and more meaningfully? To do all this, we need fresh solutions," say John De Graff and Linsa Sechrist in their article on Economics of Happiness. { read more }

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1206 ~
29 October 1997

I am delighted that Nobel Peace Prize winner Archbishop Desmond Tutu has launched a Jubilee 2000, a Debt-Free Start for the New Millennium. Jubilee 2000 would fulfill my idea that all debts of the poor countries be forgiven by the rich. Archbishop Tutu says: "This is the Jubilee principle in the book of Leviticus. You cancel any debts still owed; if there are slaves, you act to free them – it is a chance for renewal for everybody".

Yes, this is a great idea: let the whole of humanity seize the chance for renewal offered by our entry into a new century and millennium, at all levels, from the top of the world in the United Nations, down to the local communities, the family and each individual. In spite of my 74 years of age, I will listen to that advice and write down my own, personal pledges for renewal.

My father could not understand it. Here was a four years old boy who was going around saying that life was divine and who took his cap off when he met an old person. He asked me: "Why do you greet old people?" I answered: "Because they know so much about life." That was my attitude as a little boy.

28 October 1997

I am delighted that the first World Conference of Ministries of Youth will be held in Lisbon from 1 to 10 August 1998. The Conference aims inter alia to step up the struggle against unemployment, drugs, poverty and disease. It will intensify implementation of the UN Program of Action for Youth in the Year 2000 and beyond. If God permits me, I will go to that conference and offer it a whole list of proposals, dreams and ideas for today's youth, the adult citizens of the next century and millennium.

[GMW #2358] Creating Universities of Consumption and Universities of Employment

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1204 ~
27 October 1997

Among the new Universities I would like to see established would be Universities of Consumption and Universities of Employment.

This is in response to the fact that all Universities are concentrating on production and marketing, taking employment for granted as a result of the existing economic system.

Since we have both underconsumption, overconsumption and wrong consumptions on this planet which destroy or diminish humans and the Earth, it is high time to deal seriously with this subject. And since a slowdown and changes of consumption habits are absolutely necessary in the world if we want to save the Earth, we should also study the concept and ways of proper, fulfilling employment in the western countries especially.

I have a whole file of original ideas in this field. Someone should write 2000 ideas for fulfilling employment of humans on planet Earth. The environment, spirituality and voluntary service provide great possibilities in countries where the machines have made much employment dispensable.

Decide to Love

Love the sun, the heavens and the stars
Love God
Love the good of the present, the past and the future
Love to see, to hear, to think, to learn,

that is good on this planet
Love all living beings
Love your loving life
Irradiate your love
Make others love
Help humanity grow a global heart
Help this beautiful Earth become
the Paradise of Love
Love until it hurts
And spend your heaven
doing good on Earth.
