[GMW #4295] Planet-Wide Communications To Nurture A Better World For Everyone

[GMW #4295] Planet-Wide Communications To Nurture A Better World For Everyone Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4683 ~
The UN is the first planet-wide broadest institution in all human history and at the same time the most powerless.  I have before me the UN documents for the Second World Assembly on Aging in Madrid in April 2002.

It shows unprecedented changes in the structure of the human society, the elderly increasing rapidly and youth decreasing dramatically, and the consequences of that situation.  Who on Earth would have gathered these statistics for all countries if it had not been the UN? 

The UN for the first time in human history gathered and published in 1952 a figure of the world population (2.5 billion people).  Thanks to world conferences on population convened by the UN, instead of 7.3 billion people in the year 2000 we were only 6.1 billion.

Thank God we have the United Nations and shame on governments for not deeply loving it, be grateful to it, using it, supporting it, financing it properly and giving it legal and implementation powers.

The heart aggrandizes, elevates, gives life and blood to thought. A thought, a talk not irrigated by the heart is dry, is insufficient.

[GMW #3696] World Laws To Insure Nations Nurture Planet Earth


[GMW #3696] World Laws To Insure Nations Nurture Planet Earth Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4091~
Robert Muller Former UN Assistant Secretary General With all the world conferences being held on planet Earth, especially on population and on the environment, one would expect that something substantial is being done. Alas, no. Most of the time there is no or insufficient implementation by national governments. As on the eve of the French Revolution, when there existed no national laws, we need a world revolution to obtain world laws and legal implementation. It is becoming more and more apparent that without proper Earth government and laws this planet will rapidly come to an end. We will soon see catastrophes which will underline the urgent necessity to establish a proper Earth government.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume III - The Seasons of Life
Chapter 6 - The Rich Age
Since philosophy means the love of wisdom (Greek: phil and sophia) the views of the elderly people of the world, holders of wisdom, should be collected and studied.  I would love to see conferences and consultations on a vast number of subjects on which elderly people would give their views.

[GMW #3590] Make Warfare Illegal


[GMW #3590] Make Warfare Illegal Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 3985 ~
I like the idea of Ross Smyth, a senator of over 60,000 honorary life members of the Jaycee's International that the UN should open a campaign against the legality of war as a way to settle disputes. He proposes that the 1928 Kellogg-Briand Treaty be re-examined by the United Nations. Articles one and two of it are as follows:

Article 1 - The High Contracting Parties solemnly declare in the names of their respective peoples that they condemn recourse to war for the solution of international controversies, and renounce it as an instrument of national policy in their relations with one another.

Article 2 - The High Contracting Parties agree that the settlement or solution of all disputes or conflicts of whatever nature or of whatever origin they may be, which may arise among them, shall never be sought except by pacific means.

Ross Smyth is entirely right when he says that: "This 1928 treaty did not provide effective law nor compulsory procedures for arbitration, nor a definition of war. Seventy-three years later a new attempt to make warfare effectively illegal is both justified and overdue in the nuclear age. We owe it to our children and grandchildren."

Chapter 1 -
The Span of Life
I repeat these words by Goethe which so well apply when you have decided to be a good-doer on Earth.  They applied fully to my life.  I could give innumerable examples of them, write a whole book on them.

Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness.

Concerning acts of initiative and creation there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans:

That the moment one definitely commits oneself then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred.

A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no one could have dreamt would come their way.

Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.

Begin it now.
~ Goethe

[GMW #3366] Give To The United Nations The Necessary Resources And Means Of Legal Enforcement


[GMW #3366] Give To The United Nations The Necessary Resources And Means Of Legal Enforcement  Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3760 ~
USA conservatives are concerned that the United Nations might win more power and influence in the world. The UN should thank God that it has not more power and influence because it cannot be made responsible for the mess in the world. Who on Earth would want to put order in that mess without having the necessary resources and means of legal enforcement?

Pablo Neruda's Greatest Lesson from Childhood
As a child the renowned poet Pablo Neruda discovered a hole in a fence board from which, suddenly, appeared a tiny hand of a boy about Neruda's own age. The hand just as soon disappeared, and in its place there was a marvelous white toy sheep -- a gift to Neruda. This isolated incident would spark something deep in the poet and influence his work in all the years to come. In this beautiful passage Neruda reflects on that gesture of anonymous kindness and what it meant to him.

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1290 ~
21 January 1998
In all matters earthism and humanism must now be given precedence over nationalism. This is the imperative new phase of evolution. Nationalism is the gravest, costliest, retarding obstacle to human progress. It makes no sense any more except for its historical, cultural aspects which can be beautifully preserved and cherished as part of the world's diversity.

At the legal level, national law must give way to Earth Law and Universal Human Law. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights should be the first UN instrument to be given world legal enforcement through a World Court of Human Rights.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II Chapter 11 - Of Gratitude
How wonderful it is to be thanked, for example when I received this nice message from a reader on Valentine Day:
"Thank you for all you have done and are doing to bring the consciousness of God's peace and love to this world."

Carol wrote:
"Last year the library at school had a little book sale, I bought a copy of 'Paradise Earth.'

Robert's ideas are so relevant to what is occurring in this world today and
his optimistic perspective is very inspiring."
