~ Idea 3759 ~
We hear constantly of economic development but much less of spiritual development. What has become wrong with the human species?

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

Be like a hawk with your happiness.
Do not let it be touched by anyone or anything.
On the contrary,
transform anything and anyone who approaches you into a source of happiness.

Silently a flower blooms,
In silence it falls away;
Yet here now, at this moment, at this place,
The world of the flower, the whole of
the world is blooming.
This is the talk of the flower, the truth
of the blossom:
The glory of eternal life is fully shining here.
~ Zenkei Shibayama

[GMW #3364] Create A UN Group Of Non-Nuclear Countries To Offer Themselves As Denuclearized Examples


[GMW #3364] Create A UN Group Of Non-Nuclear Countries To Offer Themselves As Denuclearized Examples Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3758 ~
All countries having no nuclear arms should create at the UN a group of non-nuclear countries to offer themselves as examples and exercise their influence and pressure on nuclear powers to denuclearize themselves too. I am surprised that it was never done.

I think we all know our outer lives are only as good as our inner lives.

Pico Iyer on Bringing Calm Into the Motion of the World
"Pico Iyer is not a spiritual teacher or even, he says, a spiritual person per se. But he has become one of our most beloved and eloquent translators of the modern rediscovery of inner life. As a journalist and novelist, he travels the globe from Ethiopia to North Korea, and he lives in Japan. But he also experiences a remote Benedictine hermitage as his second home, retreating there many times each year. In this intimate conversation, we explore the 'art of stillness' he practices -- not in order to enrich the mountaintop, he writes, 'but to bring calm into the motion of the world.'" { read more }

Be The Change
Devote some time to your inner life everyday and watch how your outer life improves.

[GMW #3363] Create A Proper Earth Government With Proper Direct Peoples' Representation And A Parliamentary Assembly


[GMW #3363] Create A Proper Earth Government With Proper Direct Peoples' Representation And A Parliamentary Assembly Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3757 ~
Having been the President of the first Peoples' Assembly in San Francisco during the fiftieth anniversary of the UN in 1995 I am proud and glad to have been appointed Life-long Honorary President of the Global Peoples' Assembly created by the World Peoples' Assembly in Samoa in the year 2000.

This is part of the peoples' uprising desired by the United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan in several of his speeches.

I will devote the rest of my life to obtain a proper direct peoples' representation at the United Nations, a United Nations Parliamentary Assembly and a proper Earth government.

[GMW #3362] Global Spirituality - Ending All War - Including Religious & International Wars


[GMW #3362] Global Spirituality - Ending All War - Including Religious & International Wars Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3756 ~
It will be more difficult to see a United Religions of all the several thousands of faiths in the world than it was to have a United Nations of 189 nations. But what a blessing it will be! In the first place it will mean the end of religious wars as the UN meant the end of international wars. Furthermore it will see the birth of a global spirituality as a common denominator of all the world's religions. That spiritual globality will be even more important than the globality of all nations and business globality.

Living happily is the best revenge against those who make our lives miserable.

[GMW #3361] Be The Supreme Ideal Of Democracy - Not A Moneycracy Of Monopoly & Uncontrolled Business Enterprise


[GMW #3361] Be The Supreme Ideal Of Democracy - Not A Moneycracy Of Monopoly & Uncontrolled Business Enterprise Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3755 ~
The US Presidential elections in the year 2000 were a blessing for the world at the opening of the 21st century and 3rd millennium. They showed that the US is not the supreme ideal democracy it claims to be and that it would be an error to imitate it blindly as was the case until now by a great part of the rest of the world. I personally go further: moneycracy with its fundamentalism of free, uncontrolled business enterprise and the resulting power and monopoly of the very rich is waging a merciless war against nature, against the Earth all over the world. It will put an end to the Earth and humanity's evolution if this is not controlled by a new ideology and planet-wide proper Earth government.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II The Art of Personal Happiness
Chapter 2, Of Happiness
Happiness is the exercise of our vital abilities towards fulfillment in a society that allows us to do so.

I bet that reality will end up turning out to be more fascinating and unexpected than we've ever imagined.
~ Donald Huffman

We Do NOT See Reality As It Is
Thomas Huxley once proclaimed that the fact that human consciousness results from something as mundane as irritating nervous tissue is as mysterious as the fact that a genie appears after Aladdin rubs his lamp. Professor of Cognitive Science, Donald Hoffman, believes that
we have been unable to understand the mystery of consciousness
not because we are incapable of comprehending it,
but because we have simply made one important and false assumption.
The false assumption is that perception and reality are the same.
Perception is NOT like reality - Reality is NOT like our perceptions.
Enjoy this TED talk to learn about the assumption, why it is false, and how Professor Hoffman believes we can fix it. { read more }
