| ~ Idea 3206 ~
I love these ideas of Cora Weiss, President of the Hague Appeal for Peace, in her speech to the Millennium Forum held at the United Nations on 22 May 2000:
1. Create an International Disarmament Organization
2. Give life to the Military Staff Committee foreseen in Chapter 7, Article 47 of the United Nations Charter
3. Re-open the United Nations Peace Education Unit. I would even recommend that it should be a major United Nations department. The UN University for Peace could become it.

| Robert's Golden Sayings |
A Hindu sage asked me:
“How do you see God?”
“I do not see God. I hear in me a silent voice which most lovingly and kindly answers my questions.”
* The same Hindu sage asked me:
“How do you see yourself, especially your internal self?”
“When I look into myself, I see nothing, only emptiness, a void gently contained by the unfelt form of my being. I see and feel nothing. All functions so well, so perfectly. I am an emptiness which resonates the vibrations of the universe.”
The sage murmured:
“I have never heard that before.”
*
What I see is not out there. It is in me.
What I hear is not out there. It is in me.
What I think is not out there. It is in me.
What I feel is not out there. It is in me.
I am therefore filled with the out there. I am the out there. My being is a vessel of the out there. I must empty myself of myself in order to receive and contain the universe.
* This reminds me that when I was an aide to former UN Secretary General U Thant, I once asked him: “I notice that when you receive visitors you almost never give them an idea, an exhortation to do something for peace and a better world. Why is that?” He answered with an astonished tone and face: “But my dear Robert, if a person comes to see me it is because that person has a message, something important to tell me. I must therefore empty myself of myself in order to receive that person’s message as fully as possible.”

A nice message I received on Valentine's Day:
"Thank you for all you have done and are doing to bring the consciousness of God's peace and love to this world."
I am a product, a child of the United Nations. Anyone who wishes to become a loving universal being as I have become should get to know our mother, the United Nations.
