11 April 1998
On 10 December 1998, the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the UN should commission a monument honoring all UN servants and voluntary workers who died in the service and defense of human rights around the world.

There should be on this planet a science, an art, a policy, a methodology of forgiveness. Why not teach forgiveness in all schools of the world?

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1369 ~
10 April 1998
I am glad that years ago an idea of mine was implemented in New York City: the creation of an Institute for the Science of Hope. When I received their latest report I wrote to them and suggested that they should consider transforming themselves into a University of Hope.

We badly need a whole series of World Universities on perennial great philosophical concepts which have saved and helped humanity to survive and progress over eons of time. An instance is the creation of the first University for Peace in demilitarized Costa Rica. I would like to see also created on this planet World Universities of Love, Faith, Optimism, Happiness, Spirituality, Cooperation, Vision, Inspiration, Beauty, Harmony, Meditation, Prayer, Forgiveness, and there are others. What a tremendous, different world would emerge from them!

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II Chapter 12 - Of Forgiveness
Asking for forgiveness and forgiving can cover the whole gamut of conceivable human sins and misbehaviors, from physical to verbal, to emotional, mental and spiritual. Its benefits and blessings would be as vast as its causes and motives. UNESCO has begun to look into this under the name of World Ethics.

[GMW #2432] Foster Solutions of Global Problems with Generous Philanthropy & Gaiaphily

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1366 ~
7 April 1998
Philanthropists and gaiaphilists should give priority to global philanthropy and gaiaphily to foster the solution of global problems, the most recent, unprecedented, urgent and potentially catastrophic, terminal ones. They should help the convening of major world conferences and the creation or strengthening of new, vitally needed global institutions and legislations.

Thus, the University for Peace in Costa Rica was created with one million dollars donated by Ryoichi Sasakawa from Japan. He has his statue on the grounds of this first University for peace on this planet. Mr. Sasakawa also funded the yearly UNESCO Peace Education Prize. Ted Turner's philanthropy to the UN is also an example.

Please philanthropists and gaiaphilists take inspiration from them. World philanthropy will give you maximum world visibility and enduring fame.

Volume II Chapter 12 - Of Forgiveness
ohn Denver, the famous American singer and humanist, once stopped in Costa Rica and visited me in my modest farmhouse on Mt. Rasur. He was undertaking a world tour to sing for hope to young people. At one point he left the terrace where we were sitting to go inside the house. He took some time to come back and said to me: "Dear Robert, you have rendered me a great service." I expressed surprise and he said: "I read your poem Decide to Forgive affixed on a wall. It has rendered me a great service. I was desperate because my Australian wife left me and returned to her country with our little daughter. I was crushed. Your poem gave me the answer: I forgive her and will continue to love her."

~ Idea 1341 ~
13 March 1998
There are thousands and thousands of people these days who have high spiritual and philosophical thoughts. And yet, no one knows them, none of them reaches fame and an audience, because publishers are looking for markets, and there is apparently no market for good books and philosophers.

Dear reader, ask for good books and do not buy murder and violence books or so-called best-sellers. Get the publishers to understand what books you want to buy.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II Chapter 12 - Of Forgiveness
I hope that someday on this planet there will be a University of Forgiveness which will teach the science, art, methodology, ways and benefits of forgiveness.

I've learned from experience that
the greater part of our happiness
or misery depends on our
dispositions and not on our circumstances.

Here's a good example of an attitude that makes a difference.

ABOUT NICK VUJICIC: Imagine being born without arms. No arms to wrap around someone, no hands to experience touch, or to hold another hand with. Or what about being born without legs? Having no ability to dance, walk, run, or even stand on two feet. Now put both of those scenarios together: no arms and no legs. What would you do? How would that effect your everyday life?

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1338 ~
10 March 1998
From an evolutionary point of view, the attacks of the US against the UN and reduction of its role and means will be considered some day as one of the greatest errors and lacks of vision in world history. It seems that power went so much to the head of the US that it lost its sense of proportions and direction. Therefore the US will decline as a power as did all past powers which did not adapt to new fundamental trends of evolution. This happens on the eve of a new century and millennium when all countries, especially the best informed ones, should have the clearest possible mind, views and heart towards a future written in the stars.

I deeply mourn the fact that the US has lost its consciousness of the world's future and of its guiding role in it.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II Chapter 12 - Of Forgiveness
Forgiveness can also help to implement your decision "not to let anyone take away your happiness." Forgive the misguided people who hurt you and they will not be able to erode your happiness. On the contrary, love them.

WORD FOR THE DAY
My continuing passion is to part a curtain,
that invisible veil of indifference
that falls between us and
that blinds us to each others presence,
each other's wonder, each others human plight.

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1337 ~
9 March 1998
When humans decide and are really determined to solve a problem, however intractable it may seem, they invariably succeed.

Thus, after two world wars nations decided to abolish international wars, creating the United Nations. They are very close to success after fifty years: there are almost no international wars left as we enter the next century and millennium. Only three remain: the Middle East, Cyprus and Kashmir. They are all three religious wars and are kept basically under lid.

Why not decide to solve all other forms of violence the same way, from religious and internal ethnic wars, to urban violence, street violence, family violence, media violence, etc. Governments could make the UN University for Peace a main world instrument for non-violence in all realms. Its name could be changed to UN University for Peace and Non-violence.

Volume II Chapter 12 - Of Forgiveness
I hope that in the year 2000 and 2001 many debts of the poor countries will be forgiven. Thank God, it has begun to take place to some degree.
