[GMW #3060] Contribute To Further The Incredible Cosmic Evolution

[GMW #3060] Contribute To Further The Incredible Cosmic Evolution Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3454 ~
Here I am at the age of seventy-seven completely at a loss about the meaning of my life after so many experiences in so many places of the world. I do not see the sense of my temporary, small life on this tiny planet in the infinite universe and eternal stream of time. From most points of the universe our planet Earth cannot even be seen, being so small. Hence, how about me?

Then I remember having once seen in an exhibit on the universe a very long map on a wall representing an infinity of galaxies, stars and planets. There was an arrow saying, "In this area is our solar system and the Earth." There was not even a dot to represent them! I was deeply shocked, but after a while I redressed myself saying: well, on this non-represented dot, in this empty area, I am fully alive and able to see and embrace this entire, fabulous map of the universe designed by fellow humans.

And I suddenly felt very great, extended to the universe of which I am a cosmic creature, a being at one with the heavens, with the Earth and with infinite time. Might it not be the meaning of all human life to feel the totality, the incredible marvel of everything that is part of it? Yes, our Earth and all its living creatures are creations of the universe and so are we. We must therefore contribute to the ascending, further evolution expected by the cosmos. Our Earth is a miraculous, perhaps unique manifestation, embodiment, creation, transformation of the mysterious forces of the universe. And all humans are temporary, miraculous co-participants, co-workers in it. How marvelous, how beautiful it is to be blessed with life!

Once, after a television interview, a UN journalist commented to me: "You said important, fundamental things and gave vital global information to the viewers. But you made a mistake: you said it as if it was all so simple, so natural, so down-to-earth. You should have acted like a Shakespearean artist who every evening gives the feeling to the viewers that it was his best performance ever, never to be surpassed again in the future." I answered that in my view it would not be honest to do that, to seek to be exceptional and to make a show. I want listeners simply to learn, to be aggrandized, enriched by what I have learned as a world servant.

WORD FOR THE DAY
Thankfulness is the soul of beneficence; abundance is but the husk,
for thankfulness brings you to the place where the Beloved lives.

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1211 ~
3 November 1997

There is a lot of talk and complaint in the UN and in the public about non-compliance of UN decisions by member governments. The issue of non-compliance of the Agenda 21 for the improvement of the environment, agreed to in Rio de Janeiro, even led to the holding this summer of a special session of the UN General Assembly on the subject. The results were nil.

I suggest that the Agenda 21 be brought to the attention of all local communities and relevant institutions in the world, who can implement them without waiting for action by central governments. Nothing prevents a city or province or business from implementing the Agenda. The result world-wide would be considerable.

The situation also raises the urgency of considering a proper Earth government as I outlined earlier which would give the United Nations or a new world institution like the European Union the basic legislative authority to adopt global laws which would be enforceable. As the days and months pass, I am more and more convinced that this has become an utmost urgency if we want to save this planet from destruction.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II Chapter 11 - Of Gratitude
Three of the finest concepts ever developed by the human race are:
God as the supreme image of the universe
Happiness as the supreme objective of human life
Love as the supreme means to achieve happiness

Let us therefore become the Planet of God
Let us become the Planet of Happiness
Let us become the Planet of Love.

If I love life, then life will be beautiful.
If I love my family, I will have a happy family.
If I love my work, I will be successful.
If I love my house, I will have a beautiful home.
If I love to study, to write, to read, to paint, to sculpt, to garden, to sing, to walk,
my life will be happier through these loves.
If I love God, I will find an ultimate happiness.

"Be crumbled.
So wild flowers will come up where you are.
You have been stony for too many years.
Try something different.
Surrender."
