For A Better World ANNEX
The Cleanest Mile on Earth*
One must never miss fulfilling one's dreams. Editor's Note: I worked on Wall Street for eight years. Owned a small firm that did research for mutual funds and acquirers of companies. There were some dark, desperate days. I found a book in the library, Most of All, They Taught Me Happiness, that helped me through. Recently I wrote the author, Robert Muller, asking for permission to quote from his books. He wrote me back two beautiful letters and the essay that follows. When I think of Robert Muller, I think of the state of mind a few of us are somehow able to live in. It is best described as Love — a love for life and for creation. It is the life that revolves around an appreciation of beauty, of friendship, of nature. Life abundant, but life based on material simplicity. Robert Muller is an inspiration to me. - Rodcrick W. MacIver *From HERON DANCE, a magazine devoted to the search for meaning of life and inner peace, August 1995. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 5 - Of Love "We are given one blessing: love, which cannot be taken away from us. Only love, and all the joys will be yours, the sky, the trees, people, and even yourself." - Leo Tolstoy

I recommend that the 16 nations of the European Union and others interested in following the same path should form a new group in the United Nations and work together in the light of their experience towards the creation of a World Union of all nations.

In its efforts to strengthen world democracy, the Panel of Personalities of UNESCO on this subject should give consideration to world public opinion polls and peoples' referenda. Also there is no office in the UN System which follows the fate and functioning of democracy in the world. The Panel should recommend that this should be corrected. Democracy in the world is of such importance that institutional arrangements must be created for it. Perhaps the UN Trusteeship Council which has completed its mandate could be replaced by a Council on Democracy. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 5 - Of Love Love must start at home. How can we love others if we do not love ourselves and our next of kin?

My God, how George Washington would be shocked if he saw the present mess in the world and the lack of vision and leadership of the US to bring about progress in the orderly, beneficial management of the Earth, possibly through a United States of the World. Yes, he would not even see an effort to transform the United Nations born on American soil into an effective Earth government. Where is the resurrected US George Washington today?

I have been invited to attend again a Findhorn conference in England but am unable to go. To support the advocacy work of that splendid environmental organization, I reproduce here the following text:
Transcript of short talk by Robert Muller
to the Ecovillages and Sustainable Development Conference in Findhorn, in October 1995 In my 40 years in the UN, I have seen three very basic changes. From 1945-70 the UN was focused on humanism and humans; on avoiding war, on preventing children dying, and on The Declaration of Human Rights. The Charter of the UN does not mention the Earth. Why? Because in our belief the Earth was limitless. This continued until the late 60's when poets like Rachel Carson and advanced countries like Sweden began to notice that something was wrong with nature around us. A completely new period of history thus started with the First World Conference on the Environment in Sweden in 1972. There was continuation of the preoccupation with humans, but also a new preoccupation with the world around us. It was only in the late 60's that we realized that we had a population problem, because the fertility rate continued at about the same level, while the mortality rate was declining. The population explosion intensified the problem of the environment. In 1980 we began to get warnings from climatologists that something was going wrong with the world's climate. As a result since 1980 we have entered a third period – from now on the Earth is number one, and humanity is number two. Humanity is number two because we wish humans to decline on this planet. And we have begun to question the consumption of resources by Western countries which is 30 times the amount consumed by developing countries. Believing that the world was unlimited, we started with the discipline and science called economics, (from Greek, oikonomos, the management of the home), before ecology, (the Greek, oikologos, the knowledge of the home). We began to manipulate the home before we knew what we were manipulating. Economics should have been and should become a sub-science of ecology. The prospect of the third millennium has an incredible effect. Humanity is preparing itself for a new millennium and century. I have pages and pages of events which will take place even beyond the year 2000. There is reason for optimism. Humanity is really trying. But we are only in the kindergarten of the global age. We have not yet learned to be the careful managers of our planet. We are still its exploiters. I have just attended the Gorbachev meeting on the State of the World in San Francisco, and I have gained a lot of hope. They had the courage to get some of the best world experts to look into the state of the world and into the future, to create a vision of the society we want in the next millennium...and then do it. They want to implement the population plan, support simple and frugal lives, and get multinational corporations to acquire global consciousness. This gives me hope. From a pessimistic young man, when I entered the UN immediately after World War II, I have become an optimistic elder. Let me give you some very specific recommendations and ideas: Idea 1455 Create a World Association of Eco-Communities to be NGO-accredited by the UN. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 5 - Of Love Love is our only salvation, the only cement and uplifting force that holds us upright in the mysterious, fathomless universe. Love is our voluntary, conscious, willful endearment with life, with the Earth and with the positive flows of the universe.

I often dreamt of heading:- a school for heads of state - a school for world peacemakers - a school for world happiness, cooperation, love and the art of living At least the second dream came true.

~ Idea 1452 ~ 2 July 1998
Disarmament talks have lasted for more than 150 years and the situation is worse than ever. Perhaps it is time to recognize the plain truth that disarmament is incompatible with national sovereignty. Disarmament requires a new world order. There can no longer be any doubt about that. Please people, join a world government or Earth government group. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 5 - Of Love Einstein asked Freud: "I have not found an answer to my search for peace in my sciences. Did you find one in your field?" Freud: "Yes. Love for the nation, e.g. for the United States, put an end to wars and conflicts between states. Love for all humanity and for the world will put an end to international wars." Indeed, the love of country has succeeded in binding people at the national level.
The great new historical challenge is to
develop love among all Earth inhabitants and for the Earth herself: peace on Earth and with the Earth.

~ Idea 1449 ~ 29 June 1998
Since the reforms implemented by the new UN Secretary General at
the request of the US Government still did not satisfy the US Congress
which turned down again the payment of its legal financial obligations
and back dues to the UN, I suggest to the Secretary General to put an
item on the agenda of the UN General Assembly or Security Council,
asking that the seat of the United Nations be transferred "to a more faithful and financially committed country".
~ Idea 1450 ~ 30 June 1998
Isn't it strange that the President of the US and other western leaders
found close to 10 billion dollars within 2 or 3 days to relieve the
crisis of the South Korean stock exchange market and the US continues
to refuse to pay its contribution and backlog of payments of 1.2
billion dollars to the United Nations. In what kind of a world do we live? Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 5 - Of Love
We need more than a world vision (Weltanschaung).
We need a world love (Weltliebe).
