~ Idea 1042 ~ 18 May 1997
The representative of the Saskatchewan Indigenous College soon to become a University told us that when the idea of such a University was raised, the Canadians asked: "Why do you want to have such a University? We have so many first class, prestigious Canadian Universities where your people can study." The indigenous people insisted that they wanted to have their own University to teach their people their own culture and traditions. Today there are 17 indigenous Universities in the Americas, 3 of them in Canada. This reminded me that when we proposed to create a United Nations University, we heard the same comment: why don't you use our prestigious Universities, like Harvard, Princeton, Oxford, the Sorbonne, etc.? The fact remains that we need a whole series of true, universal, global Universities in the areas of common concern to humanity and to the United Nations. The Earth itself, the world ocean, the atmosphere, outer space, the deserts, the Arctic and Antarctic, and humanity deserve global universities which would be of vital benefit to the human fate and to our planet. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 5 - Of Love I used to say: love up to the brim. Then I learned that Mother Teresa went farther than I and said: love until it hurts.

WORD FOR THE DAY
Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go out and do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive. Howard Thurman Books recommended by Robert are here.
