[GMW #3862] Make The Fundamental Conversion, To Be Human

[GMW #3862] Make The Fundamental Conversion, To Be Human  Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4257 ~
Everybody wants a better world but few are ready to accept that to be human is more important than to be American, Russian, Chinese, Arab, Jewish, Catholic or Protestant and that it will be a better world only when people will have made this fundamental conversion. Patriotism must be secondary to Earthism and Humanism. Please, dear reader give thought to that. It is absolutely essential.

Chapter 5 - The Miracle of Individual Life

I can love my life without understanding why,
like a mother loves heavenly her child
And my life will love me simply for loving it.

The evening beam that smiles the clouds away,
And tints tomorrow with prophetic ray.

[GMW #2369] An Annual Jose Figueres Demilitarization Prize from Costa Rica


Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1238 ~
30 November 1997
Since Costa Rica has been for years the most peaceful and most prosperous country in Central America, thanks to the genial decision of former President Jose Figueres to demilitarize the country by Constitution in 1949, I recommend that wealthy people of Costa Rica and sympathetic foreign philanthropists contribute to a fund which would give a yearly Jose Figueres Demilitarization Prize to the country which has demilitarized itself or made most progress towards demilitarization.

Volume II Chapter 11 - Of Gratitude
Another surprise to me was U Thant, the Buddhist Secretary General whose direct aide I was for two years. He was the most deeply spiritual person I have ever known. He once said to me: "Robert, I cannot understand you Catholics who limit spirituality to an hour in church on Sunday. I am a spiritual person from the moment I wake up until I go to rest." One day I said to him: "When you receive visitors, why don't you tell them to do something for peace and a better world?" He answered: "How could I do that? These people come to see me to tell me something. I must therefore open myself to them, empty myself of my self, so that I can receive them entirely as a human brother or sister."

[GMW #2097] Not Shopping Or Buying Anything At Least Once A Week

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500
~ Idea 1298 ~    29 January 1998

Perhaps all Catholics in the world should return to the holy practice of not buying anything and not visiting any stores on Sundays, a holy day to be devoted to spirituality.  They could remember the example of Jesus chasing the merchants from the Temple.

Perhaps all Jewish people should do the same on Sabbath and all the religions of the world on their sacred, holy day.

The subject should be taken up by the United Religions Organization when it enters into function.  This would be a great contribution of the world's religions to a better ecology.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,  
Volume II Chapter 15 - Of Beauty and Art
Decide to be Beautiful
    To make your life a work of art
    To create beauty
        through your hands
        with your heart
        through your mind
        with your soul
    Feel and render the breathtaking beauty
        of Creation
        of the miracle of life
    Have harmony, peace and beauty
        always on your mind
    Be you a father, a mother,
        a youth or an elderly
    In any profession
    In whatever you do
    At every moment of your life
    Be in love with beauty
    Be a master of life.
    Conceive beauty
    Celebrate through your art
    the beauty of your home
    the beauty of the Earth
        the beauty of humanity
        the beauty of the stars and heavens
    Leave behind you
    a great heritage of art

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 6501 to 7000


~ Idea 6566 ~

Each Earth Day becomes bigger than the preceding one. The Catholics started an Evangelization 3000 Crusade and all religions an Ecumenical Council 3000. A World Commission of Spiritual Renaissance and a United Religions Initiative were created and the Pope presented his views on a spiritual trimillennium.

I refuse to believe that Creation has no purpose and makes no sense
I refuse to believe that our planet has no purpose and makes no sense
I refuse to believe that humanity has no purpose and makes no sense
I refuse to believe that my life has no purpose and makes no sense
I believe that all of it has an incredible sense

Happy Birthday!!!

Dear Mr Muller-

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! ODE TO JOY!!

Mr. Muller- you have been such an important influence in my life. I work from my place of passion, and I have been fortunate to find in my work some effect of this. I have no choice- as I- like you am an optimist. I know that the work can be a better place. We can begin to make the changes that we need. The earth is a happy host to those with "terra" respect. I have come to realize our close relationship with the earth through farming in New Mexico. Seed Saving and giving thanks for harvests. I remember many of your words during my times of doubt, and like sails- they carry me through.

SO- HAPPY BIRTHDAY! May your day be blessed with good company, laughter and love.

I enjoy our conversations - and hearing Ode to Joy played by an angel such as yourself. Ode to Joy, a song tied to my heart throughout my young life- and now made so much more significant with your spirit attached.

I would like to visit you in Costa Rica, and I would like to visit the University for Peace. I feel strongly about this- and I really hope that I can meet you in person at some point.

Be well.

thank you for your beautiful and graceful march forward. this world can at times stumble one up- but to keep a light heart when it is humanly possible is key.

blessings and more blessings- birthday blessings and more birthday blessings.

i love you Mr. Muller for showing so many of us the way.

sincerely my best,

jennifer
