[GMW #2915] Oikos Nomos - Devise A New Planetary Economic System




[GMW #2915] Oikos Nomos - Devise A New Planetary Economic System
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3309 ~
Capitalism has done wonders for humanity and we must be thankful for it.  But its growth and success has created a lopsided power which is now destroying the Earth due to over-population and the over-consumption of the Earth's elements and resources. 

We must urgently remedy this situation and devise a new planetary economic system (oikos nomos, Greek the management of our home) for the benefit of all humanity, the preservation of the Earth and the proper survival and evolution of both.  This is our most urgent task and duty toward the future generations.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 5 The Miracle of Individual Life
In the end, we must be concerned not with materialism or spirituality, religion or atheism, capitalism or communism, nationalism or internationalism, individualism or altruism, but with the immensely more profound question:

what do these vast, stupendous mysteries around us mean,
what is the purpose of life,
why do we live and die,
what sense does it make,
what is our ultimate reason for being,

how can we enjoy and fulfill our extraordinary gift of life instead of believing,  doing, learning, reading and coveting what a few privileged, often misguided individuals tell us or sell us to do?

[GMW #2914] Give Back, Express Gratitude, Nurture A Better World


[GMW #2914] Give Back, Express Gratitude, Nurture A Better World

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3308 ~
My numerous ideas for a better world are my way of thanking God, the Earth and humanity for the incredible gift of life I received from them.  They did so much for me.  What I'm giving back to them is only a tiny drop of the ocean of gratitude I feel in me.  May many human brothers and sisters of mine do the same.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 5 The Miracle of Individual Life
My schoolfriends used to laugh at me when I said:  "Das Leben is göttlich", "Life is divine".  Today after a half a century of living all over the globe, through war and peace, I still hold that view, more firmly than ever and proclaim that life is godlike, is divine.

[GMW #2913] Never Forget To Help The Environment


[GMW #2913] Never Forget To Help The Environment Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
                                            ~ Idea 3307 ~
Dear housewives, do not buy colored paper towels or towels with colored designs or inscriptions.  They only add artificial colors to what is returned to the Earth through waste disposals and recycling.  Use only white paper, or do not use paper towels at all: use cloth towels which can be washed and reused many times.  Every bit multiplied by the 6.1 billions we are helps the environment.  Never forget it.

Life, life, life, o God-given life, how I love you, how I am in passion with you!

[GMW #2912] Grandparents Exchange Experience & Wisdom From All Cultures & Create Common Public Institutions


[GMW #2912] Grandparents Exchange Experience & Wisdom From All Cultures & Create Common Public Institutions Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
                                            ~ Idea 3306 ~
I also recommend the creation of a World Association of Grandparents to exchange experiences and wisdom from all cultures and create common public institutions.  I could well see a United Nations Grandparents' Agency which might be a great help to achieve peace and a better world with their wisdom.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 5 The Miracle of Individual Life
At the end of my French novel, Sima Mon Amour, I wish that the following be inscribed on my tomb:

"O you who passes by, I beg you:  love your life with passion, embrace it with fervor, cherish every moment of it, do not lose any of it, for it is an astounding miracle.  Contemplate the blue sky and the passing clouds, your human companions, your sisters the flowers, your friends the animals.  Be drunk with sunshine and starshine.  Be convinced that this Earth is paradise.
Here rests under some soil from various lands he loved, a body who was inhabited by the miracle of life. 

I would give a thousand years of my death for a brief ray of light, for a flower touched by my hands, for a kiss of my beloved one, for a smile of my child...

O humans who are still alive, do not lose your precious time in sterile wars, in useless hatred, in mediocre ambitions.

Ceaselessly love life, your enchanted planet, God and the universe.  They are incredible treasures.  Love with passion the miraculous world which surrounds you.  Here where I am, a few feet from you, there is only darkness."

[GMW #2911] For Retirement Move To The Land And Farm


[GMW #2911] For Retirement  Move To The Land And Farm
                       Tuesday 11 February 2014, Editor: Easy Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
                                           ~ Idea 3305 ~
I recommend to all grandparents to move to the land when they retire, to buy or rent a farmlet and raise animals, were it only chickens.  The grandchildren would love it and never forget their stays and vacations with them.  We are doing it here in Costa Rica.  It is a great blessing on both sides.


Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 5 The Miracle of Individual Life

When we cry the loss of a dear one, we bemoan above all the loss of life.  Hence life must be something incredibly valuable, to judge from our grief.  But why wait until death to recognize the miracle of life?

[GMW #2910] World Parent's Association To Create Common Public Institutions


[GMW #2910] World Parent's Association To Create Common Public Institutions 
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
                                 ~ Idea 3304 ~
There should be a World Parents' Association  to exchange experiences and wisdom of parenting in all cultures and to create common public institutions.  I could well see a United Nations Parents' and Family Agency and the birth of a new, comprehensive science of 'Parentology'.


Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,

Each individual should be considered sacred until proven contrary.

WORD FOR THE DAY

An act of love that fails is just as much
a part of the divine life as an act of
love that succeeds, for love is
measured by its own fullness, not by its reception.
