[GMW #2971] New Priorities Beyond Economic Development, Green Revolution, Sustainability


[GMW #2971] New Priorities Beyond Economic Development, Green Revolution, Sustainability
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3365 ~
Stopping the further 'economic development' explosion, human population explosion, consumption explosion, accumulation explosion, transport and travel explosion must urgently become the new priorities of humanity if we are to survive. This goes far beyond the environment, the green revolution and sustainable economic development.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 6 I and Creation
When I was a little boy I had a sense of wonder at the miracle of life and at the Creation around me.

Then I was taught to hate other nations, I knew war and the horrors done by men to God's Creation and to others.
Then God led me to the United Nations and I learned to love the entire Earth and all humanity.

I ended where I started: I considered life to be divine and I regained my sense of wonder at the whole Creation.

For centuries, stairs have symbolized journeys, rites of passage,
transitions, and stages of life in art, literature, and music.

[GMW #2970] Earth Requires Not Too Many Children


[GMW #2970] Earth Requires Not Too Many Children
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3364 ~
In order not to bring this Earth to an end more humans should decide not to have any children anymore or to have only a few. The Earth will be very grateful to them.

The Earth:
"How right you are my dear Robert. They are all coming out of my flesh, air, and liquids and then destroying me. They are a true catastrophe in my long history and will put an end to my further evolution."

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 6 I and Creation
If you feel lost in life, put your arms around a tree, hug it, talk to it, and you will feel the reassuring energy of the universe.

Rajasthan, India

For most of us, there is only the unattended
Moment, the moment in and out of time,
The distraction fit, lost in a shaft of sunlight,
The wild thyme unseen, or the winter lightning
Or the waterfall, or music heard so deeply
That it is not heard at all, but you are the music
While the music lasts.
~ T.S. Eliot

[GMW #2969] Real Miracles Come From Total Demilitarization And Disarmament Of Earth


[GMW #2969] Real Miracles Come From Total Demilitarization And Disarmament Of Earth 
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3363 ~
Peace and security by the United Nations are an utmost priority. But the real miracles and results will come from the total demilitarization and disarmament of this planet.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 6 I and Creation
To count the grains of all the sands of our planet would yield an infinite number.
To count the drops of water of all the seas and oceans would give an infinite number.
To count all the molecules of the Earth's atmosphere would yield an infinite number.
To count all the atoms of the sands, water, air, rocks, plants and beings of our planet would produce an infinite number,
And yet, in the infinite universe, our planet is only a small mass of matter.
And yet, on this small planet, humans feel, love, dream, think and act as cosmic, divine beings.
And yet, as all those billions of fellow humans I am unique and unrepeatable, a world or cosmos of my own linked with all there is in the heavens and on Earth.
And the greatest marvel is that I could understand and write what I just wrote!

Mother to Son
Well, Son, I’ll tell you:
Life for me ain’t been no crystal stair.
It’s had tacks in it,
And splinters,
And boards torn up, And places with no carpet on the floor –
Bare.

But all the time
I’se been a-climbin’ on,
And reachin’ landin’s,
And turnin’ corners,
And sometimes goin’ in the dark
Where there ain’t been no light.

So boy, don’t you turn back.
Don’t you set down on the steps
‘Cause you finds it’s kinder hard.
Don’t you fall now –
For I’se still goin’, honey,
I’se still climbin’,
And life for me ain’t been no crystal stair.
~ Langston Hughes

[GMW #2968] Ending Human Explosions Of Growth, Consumption, Media, Marketing & Other Crazinesses


[GMW #2968] Ending Human Explosions Of Growth, Consumption, Media, Marketing & Other Crazinesses
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3362 ~
We need a world revolution against human explosions and crazinesses:

the population explosion
the economic 'growth' explosion
the needless consumption explosion
the hoarding explosion
the transport and tourism explosion
the media explosion
the selling and marketing explosion
the advertisement explosion
The time has come when we humans must think what is feasible and limit ourselves to what is necessary within the framework of the resources and the renewal capacity of the Earth. We are still far from that wisdom.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 6 I and Creation
To live one's life optimally is the road to happiness and God. This entails optimum physical, mental, sentimental and spiritual lives. It also means optimizing one's life over time:

to live a long life,
to learn during all one's life,
to love at every age,
to seek God and a perfect union with the universe at all times.

My Soul. I summon to the winding ancient stair;
Set all your mind upon the steep ascent,
Upon the broken, crumbling battlement,
Upon the breathless starlit air,
‘Upon the star that marks the hidden pole;
Fix every wandering thought upon
That quarter where all thought is done:
Who can distinguish darkness from the soul
~ William Butler Yeats
