Religion & Spirituality

~ Idea 1301 ~1 February 1998
The gravest problem of our time is that the dominant values of the western world are business, wealth, prominence, power, strength, glory, sovereignty and not the perennial values taught by great religious leaders and philosophers over millennia: kindness, spirituality, compassion, justice, cooperation, gratitude, forgiveness, prayer, meditation, hope, and above all love.

Yes, what is missing most is love for humanity and for our miraculous mother Earth whose elements we are made of, depend on and will return to.

There are more and more peoples' organizations who are saying this. May their views be heard at the Peoples' Assembly 2000 which will accompany the UN General Assembly 2000. May they redress the current hierarchy of values and wrong course of history. That is the fundamental challenge on the eve of the 21st century.

If I were the Secretary General of the UN, I would call for a world conference on the meaning and fulfillment of human life and declare the next century the Century of Love and Happiness.

Robert's Golden Sayings
It is not for nothing that the will to know has been ingrained into the human species, as distinct from the animal world. The despair, bewilderment, anxiety and pessimism of our epoch cannot last much longer. Let us do our duty.

My Testament to the UN
-A Contribution to the 50th Anniversary of the United Nations, 1995, Chapter 6

One of my readers called me and expressed concern at the increase of militarism in the world and stepped up attacks aimed at the United Nations. I said to her that I had just returned from Costa Rica where I had found the secret of peace: the outlawing of the military.

Costa Rica is the only peaceful, democratic country in Central America. If tomorrow Costa Rica introduced an army, the military would want their budget increased every year. To effect their claims the military would predict, imagine or stage all kinds of trouble to prove their need for more resources. Therefore the suppression of the military is the secret.

In response, she told me the following anecdote:
"The other day I said to my five-year old boy that the military in El Salvador were killing children.

My son answered: 'They are stupid, because if they want to be liked by their people, they should not kill children. They should be nice.'

That is a good answer, son. Perhaps when you are grownup you will work for peace.

'Oh no', answered my boy, 'Because then the military will kill me'."
