[GMW #4049] Urgently Engage World Minds, Hearts And Souls To Nurture Better Environment, Population & Political Ways

[GMW #4049] Urgently Engage World Minds, Hearts And Souls To Nurture Better Environment, Population & Political Ways Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4442 ~
With all the power of my mind, heart and soul I urge the Secretary General or the General Assembly of the United Nations to convene urgently the following world conferences: A World Environment Emergency Conference A whole agenda for such a conference could be derived from the Index of my 4500 Ideas A World Population Emergency Conference Same remark A World Economic Emergency Conference Same remark A World Political Emergency Conference Same remark.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I - The Great Scene of Creation
Chapter 2 - Our Miraculous Planetary Home
When there is a planet as rich and beautiful as ours, inhabited by a species as astonishing as ours, then we must be patient with the latter's efforts to find its proper place, harmony and fulfillment on it. No one, indeed, can prove that we are not a unique and miraculous planet and species in the universe. We should consider our planet unique in the universe, benefiting from very extraordinary cosmic circumstances and endowed with truly exceptional conditions.

From such a point of view, our planet becomes forthwith sacred and infinitely precious, human life and all life on it true miracles, and the government of that planet a sacred, holy function.  Yes, we must visualize a possibly lifeless universe to understand our immense responsibility as the trustees, children and caretakers of our incredible, miraculous planet Earth alive.

[GMW #3307] Nurture Consciousness For A Global Spirituality


[GMW #3307] Nurture Consciousness For A Global Spirituality Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3703-5 ~
One more of the 7 progresses in consciousness gained by the human species since World War II:
5. 1990's: consciousness of the need for a renaissance of spirituality and birth of a global spirituality: World Parliament of Religions in 1993, creation of the United Religions Initiative in 2000.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II The Art of Personal Happiness
Chapter 2, Of Happiness
Once during the war, a very intelligent man, a hat manufacturer from Belgium, visited our family. When he heard my father complain about the hardness of the times, he went to the bathroom and brought back a fragrant loaf of prewar toilet soap which my mother had extracted from her treasure-chest in his honor. He passed it around and asked everyone to take a deep breath of its delightful fragrance.

Then he said:
"Once this war is over never will anyone of us feel again the happiness we enjoy at this moment in touching and smelling this soft, heavenly, rare loaf of soap. At every time of one's life, in every circumstance there is an opportunity for happiness. The art of living consists in seeking out these special moments."

I have never forgotten his words. Each time I unwrap a fresh loaf of toilet soap, his words come back to me, and I hold it respectfully to my nostrils to enjoy a special moment of happiness.

O youth of today, you do not know how lucky you are. You will never know how badly a piece of wartime soap looked and smelled. I can still feel its sandy texture hurt my skin.

[GMW #3024] Humanism & Earthism - Happy, Fulfilled Human Beings In Right Relationship With Earth


[GMW #3024] Humanism & Earthism - Happy, Fulfilled Human Beings In Right Relationship With Earth
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3418 ~
Instead of communism and capitalism which were born in the circumstances of the end of the 19th century we need in our new circumstances a combination of humanism and Earthism: the achievement of happy, fulfilled human beings in harmonious right relationship with a miraculous, well-preserved Earth.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 6 I and Creation
There are moments when the beauty of nature penetrates us, empties us of our self and makes us one with Mother Earth, with Creation. Look intensely at a flower or at the stars and you will feel this oneness.

[GMW #2946] World Transportation Agency Coordinating Transport Policy, Standardization, Etc


[GMW #2946] World Transportation Agency Coordinating Transport Policy, Standardization, Etc Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3340 ~
I recommend that the International Railroad Association should become a full specialized agency of the United Nations' added to the UN International Civil Aviation Organization and the UN International Maritime Organization. An International Road Transportation Agency must also be created. Together we would have a World Transportation Agency which could do wonders for a coordinated World Transport Policy, standardization, etc. The already existing Transport Commissions of the Regional Economic Commissions of the United Nations would be integrated into it.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 5 The Miracle of Individual Life
Even in the worst circumstances one can at least try to find happiness. Arrested by the Gestapo and thrown into a cell filled with prisoners, unable to sit or to lie on the floor, I moved towards the door and with a pencil wrote on it a love scene on top of a mountain with a beautiful girl, view and the freshest air in the world. My body was in the prison, but not my mind and my heart: they were outside, in heaven.

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1501 to 2000
~ Idea 1588 ~ 15 November 1998

I am anxiously waiting for the time when I will have finished all 2000 ideas to see them indexed and submitted to the forthcoming Millennium Peoples' Assembly 2000 which will accompany the General Assembly 2000 of heads of states. Who knows, perhaps they will have an unexpected, welcome, even exciting impact on the year 2000 celebrations and on our entry into a new century and millennium.

This is so promising that I have decided to finish the 2000 ideas by 31 December of this year. This will enable me to devote the entire year 1999 to their dissemination and implementation.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,  
Volume II  Chapter 2  Of Happiness
Happiness is a shield against many external circumstances.  It can even transform external circumstances to its benefit.  I can say:  I am mad that it rains, or I am happy that it rains; I am mad to live in a village or I am happy to live in one, etc.  One can even be happy in prison.
