[GMW #3909] World Movement Of Anti-Advertisement People

[GMW #3909] World Movement Of Anti-Advertisement People Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4302 ~
I would like to see the creation of a World Movement of Anti-advertisement People who would systematically avoid reading, looking or listening to any advertisements and publicity.

They might become very special, self-enlightened, wise individuals of great help to other humans.

It would be worth trying it. I am already a non-registered member of it!

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume III - The Seasons of Life
Chapter 7 - Return to Mother Earth
My fundamental, most sacred allegiance is not to a nation, to an ideology, to a religion, but to life itself.
As long as all humans do not follow this rule, there will be no peace on Earth.

Up at dawn, the dewy freshness of the hour, the morning rapture of the birds, the daily miracle of sunrise, set her heart in tune, and gave her Nature's most healing balm.

[GMW #3770] All Political Leaders Adopt Peace And Justice As The Topmost Priority


[GMW #3770] All Political Leaders Adopt Peace And Justice As The Topmost Priority   Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4165 ~
Reading in 2001 the journal of my six months mission to Cyprus in 1964 I wrote this after visiting some extraordinary, old, beautiful places of human civilization:

Sunday 1 November 1964 I think once again that life is too short to embrace all the beauty, all the wealth, all the treasures offered by this marvelous planet.

The twentieth century has finally opened to humans the vast spaces of the world and its most distant places.

But progress has been less rapid to increase the duration of human life, although here too successes have been achieved.

Should not all political leaders adopt peace and justice as the topmost priorities so that all living beings could enjoy the happiness, the miracle to live on planet Earth?

What treasures of life I will take along with me in eternity. What a gratitude I will express to God!

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume III - The Seasons of Life
Chapter 7 - Chapter 7 - Chapter 7 - Return to Mother Earth
Pray for a good, peaceful death during your sleep. Pray God to take you gently to Him when you are least conscious and have already half left this world, for instance during an out-of-the-body experience.

[GMW #3689] Create Ethical Governments Who Make Peace & Nurture Their People, Nature & Entire Planet


[GMW #3689] Create Ethical Governments Who Make Peace & Nurture Their People, Nature & Entire Planet Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000
~ Idea 4084 ~
I just finished reading a remarkable report on human aging in the world prepared by the United Nations. It is filled with world statistics, facts, trends, tendencies, proposals for reform, a real masterpiece covering the subject and indicating what more should be done.

Such an image of poverty in so many countries emerges from it!

I was reminded that with Mrs. Julia Alvarez of the Mission of the Dominican Republic to the UN we managed to convene the first World Conference on Aging in 1982 and today the situation begins to look as it was predicted at that time, namely that by the year 2020 the social security systems of the world will no longer be able to cope with the situation.

We have problems in every direction, the population explosion, now the aging explosion, the over-building of monstrous cities, the increase of car use, carbon dioxide, aviation and so on. It is impossible that this can continue this way. After reading that report I had two comments.

The first is that the world would be in a much worse situation if there had not been the United Nations and within the United Nations a Population Division where the whole world was surveyed, a number of world population conferences, etc. If this work had not been done, we would be 2 billion more people today. It is an incredible success of the United Nations to have at least reduced the population explosion to that extent. But it is still insufficient because we still add 78 million people yearly to the world population, a figure diminishing each year by only one or two million.

My second comment is: how can people accept this world situation, see the dangers and do not speak up, hold demonstrations and
revolt? The authors of that report should have said that under these circumstances it is practically unpermissable, unethical for governments not to make peace among themselves and eliminate armaments and military expenditures which account for one-half of the budgets of 174 nations.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume III - The Seasons of Life
Chapter 6 - The Rich Age
The rich age of the western countries has become too much a victim of tourism.  We receive innumerable groups of elderly tourists at the University for Peace.  But most of them want to see, to consume, to learn, to ask questions.  Seldom do we get an idea, a proposal, a dream, a vision from them.  Only one group, the Gray Panthers came to Costa Rica to hold a summit meeting out of which we got dozens of ideas and proposals for a better world, and pledges to take action.

[GMW #2965] My Testament To The United Nations - Required Reading


[GMW #2965] My Testament To The United Nations - Required Reading Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3359 ~
My Testament to the UN published in 1992,* fruit of 38 years of experience at the United Nations, should be a classic for all people interested in how our world is managed or rather mismanaged in this last century of the second millennium and beginning of the third.

In particular it should be a required reading in all international and political science faculties in the world. So should my 4000 Ideas.

*Hopefully, it will be reprinted some day in a series The Robert Muller Classics.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 5 The Miracle of Individual Life
Everything has been lived, everything has been thought, everything has been dreamt, everything has been felt, everything has been said, but the great art of living is to live it all over again, to think it again, to dream it again, to feel it again, to say it again yourself. Each human being repeats the entire story of the universe. And while we are all fundamentally the same, we are each unique and forever unrepeatable. This is one of the beauties of Creation.

Don't underestimate your capacity for inner strength
and emotional management, once you
put genuine heart into your commitments.
A little practice is a small price to pay for
accessing the connection to the caretaker within.
