Peace |
~ Idea 2939 ~ The sudden mushrooming of peace studies and education around the world might be a bonus for the rich countries and the multinational corporations. Why? Because the poor and downtrodden of the world will be taught to be peaceful and not to resort to violence and revolutions against the existing injustices. I recommend therefore an expansion of peace studies to include also justice which is now practically non-existent in peace education. The UN University for Peace must be renamed UN University for Peace and Justice. * Daily Idea Dream Topics: Peace, Idea Dreams 6001-6500, Ending War, Earth's Ecology, Religion & Spirituality |

Robert's Golden Sayings |
There are so many nations today and such a turnover of national leaders that none of them will be remembered for long, if it is not for a major contribution to peace and to a better world. * During the general debate of the UN General Assembly there are sometimes so many national leaders that one does not even turn around any more to look at them. They may be very great at home, but when seen together they look rather small. As one of my UN colleagues, Bryan Urquart, once commented to me: “If you have seen one, you have seen them all.” * The largest gatherings of heads of state on this planet are on their funerals. The bigger the country of the deceased, the larger the number of attendants. * |

After more than three decades of work for the first universal organization, my love for it is such that I pray all my human brothers and sisters to help it, to understand it and to love it. You will not be disappointed. You will be helping a better world and will feel happy in return. * |
