Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,   Volume II Chapter 13 - Of Speaking Even if Einstein proved to me a thousand times that time is a function of space, I will have no use for it.  For me, indeed, the two greatest realities in which we live are space and time.  No mathematical formula or mental reasoning can take this fundamental reality away from me.  The real, true, infinite variations in relationships in the vast universe escape all human understanding.  They are beyond the grasp of our human words. * UN News Sources - UN Chronicle, United Nations News Service , UN Wire News Archive References: Earth Charter, Universal Declaration of Human Rights Rights of: Children, Women, Indigenous People To Be Written: Rights of Nature, Birds, Animals, Fish, etc. DailyGood As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world as in being able to remake ourselves. -- Mahatma Gandhi   ~~~~ Inspiration of the Day: 'I claim to be an average man of less than average ability,' Gandhi often repeated. 'I have not the shadow of a doubt that any man or woman can achieve what I have, if they would make the same effort and cultivate the same hope and faith.' The fact is, while most people think of ordinariness as a fault or limitation, Gandhi had discovered in it the very meaning of life -- and of history." The late Gandhian scholar Eknath Easwaran shares further on Gandhi's faith in the power of the individual.

[GMW #1908] Democracy Replacing Moneycracy, Corporatecracy, Powercracy, World Public Opinion Polls And Referenda

[GMW #1908] Democracy Replacing Moneycracy, Corporatecracy, Powercracy, World Public Opinion Polls And Referenda Thursday 4 March 2010, Editor: Easy | RobertMuller.org | Contact | Subscribe | Unsubscribe | | GMW Blogs: English | Portuguese | Spanish | Tagalog | Dutch | Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500 Introduction For Ideas 301 to 400 2.  Establishment of an Independent World Commission on Democracy It is high time to review the concept of democracy which has been largely replaced by the rule of moneycracy, corporatecracy, powercracy.  Even elected Parliamentarians, once they work with central governments, often do the contrary of what the people expect from them. World public opinion polls and referenda should be held.  If one were held on nuclear armaments, the overwhelming majority of people would ask for their elimination.  And yet, governments do not do it. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,   Volume III Chapter I - The Span Of Life The Lord has given me the miracle of life. The Lord will take away the miracle of life, Blessed be the Lord.  I hope He will have other miracles in store for me. * The days are not long enough, my life is not long enough to do all the good I want to do for this beautiful planet and for humanity. * UN News Sources - UN Chronicle, United Nations News Service , UN Wire News Archive References: Earth Charter, Universal Declaration of Human Rights Rights of: Children, Women, Indigenous People To Be Written: Rights of Nature, Birds, Animals, Fish, etc. Daily Ray of Hope May you live all the days of your life. -- Jonathan Swift Books recommended by Robert are here.

[GMW #1726] World Polls And Referenda - To Abolish Atomic Weapons, Electric Cars To Replace Gas Cars, Demilitarization

[GMW #1726] World Polls And Referenda - To Abolish Atomic Weapons, Electric Cars To Replace Gas Cars, Demilitarization Tuesday 2 June 2009, Editor: Easy | RobertMuller.org | Contact | Subscribe | Unsubscribe | | GMW Blogs: English | Portuguese | Spanish | Tagalog | Dutch | Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500 ~ Idea 248 ~ 15 March 1995 True democracy means frequent peoples' consultations through public opinion polls and referenda. The world is now so interdependent and the people are so worried about the future that it is high time to organize world referenda. The United Nations should create an Office of World Polls and Referenda. The first world referendum should ask the people if they want to get rid or not of all atomic weapons. And all governments should abide by their decision. Another poll would be whether people want to see electric cars replace the petroleum cars which are destroying our atmosphere. Another would be on the demilitarization of the planet and the creation of a proper world security system and peace protection at all levels of society. And there are many others. * Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume III Chapter 6 The Rich Age Blessed are those who know the ways of bringing back the memories of yesterday.
