Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1529 ~
17 September 1998

We must absolutely add overconstruction and overurbanization to the destructive trends of our present society against the Earth, namely overpopulation, overconsumption, overtransportation, overactivity, etc.

Yes, how many new buildings, hotels and houses are being constructed often at sizes which are not necessary, require huge energy consumption, water consumption, maintenance, and lead progressively to the destruction of the Earth? For example the annual rate of new housing in the US alone was 1,613,000 in 1998. In 100 years this would mean 161,300,000 and by the year 3000 1 billion 613 million new houses. Can the Earth bear this?

More generally how many new activities and products are invented every day by the western society making people confused and doubtful about the real, deepest, spiritual meaning of life?

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,  
Volume II Chapter 13 - Of Speaking
We are minuscule entities in the universe and in time.  We will never fully understand the infinitely large and infinitely small.  We will never grasp the beginningless beginning and endless end.  And yet, within these limitations we can live miraculous, joyful, confident, searching, fulfilled, extraordinary lives and acquire an incredible consciousness of the stupendous universe and of our miraculous Earth.
