[GMW #741] Moral And Spiritual Renaissance

Religion & Spirituality

~ Idea 3813 ~

In a project to make San Francisco a model city for the 21st century I am quoted as follows:

"Humanity desperately needs a moral and spiritual renaissance. What it needs is a place where you have a good number of people from various nations, various races, various sexes, various beliefs and languages, working together to prevent conflict, to make peace, to help the poor, to defend human rights, to form new policies of cooperation, and to come up with ideas and visions for a better world."

Dr. Robert Muller
Former UN Assistant Secretary General

It then mentions that San Francisco is one of the most ethnically diverse cities in the world and the place where the United Nations, the United Religions, the Global Peoples' Assemblies and the States of the World Forum were born.

Perhaps a new type of administration should be conceived for such cities to take advantage of that human diversity. A city department could be created to deal with the variety of nationals, religions, cultures, beliefs and languages to make the city's administration a multi-human administration, a miniature model United Nations and new world.

Robert's Golden Sayings

It is a mistake to leave to business the monopoly of the word ?multinationals? Many other multinational phenomena are growing no less rapidly in the world, e.g. multinational associations, organizations, movements, religions, unions, professions, even families. It is surprising that business has not gone a step further and tried to monopolize the word ?planetary?.

Peace Corners history

http://www.pax2100.org/peacecorners/peacecornerpix.htm

From Barbara

?See the world with global eyes--love the world with a global heart--
understand the world with a global mind--merge with the world through a global spirit?

The idea for Peace Corners was originated by Barbara Gaughen Muller, whose radio show, Inspiring Conversation, is broadcast worldwide. She and her husband, former UN Assistant Secretary-General Dr. Robert Muller, operate the website Good Morning World, focusing on the positive news in the world rather than the negative and violent news that is typically featured in the media. The Mullers believe that no dream is too big, and they dedicate their lives to making a better, peaceful world.

?Every house should have a Peace Corner", she says, "If someone does something wrong, send them to the Peace Corner to let them think about their mistakes instead of just punishing them.?

Dear Dr. Muller,

Thank you for your heartfelt preface to Jill Jackson Miller's book "Let There Be Peace on Earth." I am writing an article about the Peace Song for Science of Mind Magazine, to appear in the December 2005 issue on the fiftieth anniversary of the Peace Song

I am also interested in finding out about any recent activity relating to the Peace Song (in addition to its being sung in Religious Science and Unity churches).

Thank you very much for any help you may be able to give me with this. It is greatly appreciated.

Peace and blessings,

Kathy

[GMW #740] Education For The World

Earth's Ecology

~ Idea 3894 ~

What hope for the future can we have when practically all 6 billion humans of this planet go through a national education which does not prepare them to contribute to the solution of the dominant, all-pervading, dangerous global problems confronting now humanity: the population explosion, the consumption explosion, the damages to our environment, the colossal wastes, the pollution of the airs, waters, oceans, etc., etc. Please, educators of the world, wake up.

If you are self-realized, if you like what you do, you will be successful. My father was a good hatmaker because he loved to make hats. If you dislike what you do, you will not succeed.
* Why are there so infinitely more news and discussions about the ills and blemishes of humanity than about its successes and achievements? Is that normal?
* What the world needs most is a constructive attitude, a true love for life and for our wonderful planet. It is the duty of each of us, as children of the Earth, to practice and spread this correct world view.

[GMW #739] I Am Happy When

Ending War

~ Idea 3461 ~

We should establish a world list of "you cannot be happy if..."

there is a war
there is hunger
there is no home
there is crass injustice
there is no nature
there is no fresh, pure air
there is violence in your neighborhood
there is no education
there is no employment for your children
there is no beauty
etc.

Yes, it would be interesting to establish such a list. I can prove at least one of them, namely you cannot be happy if there is a war. That was my case when I lived the incredible horrors and dangers of World War II and decided that I would devote my life to peace in the world and put an end to all wars, militaries and armaments. Lists of "I am happy when..." should also be written by everyone.

Re: [GMW #738] Moving To Land And Nature From Monstrous Cities

Mr. Muller,

I've been reading your emails for sometime now and from my experience, I think you are on track and quit courageous..

However, this one about cities is totally off base.

I live in New York and when I go to the suburbs I see total, indulgent waste. When I go to rural places, I don't see compassion or a higher state of being. In fact, what I've experienced is the worst things that are in us.

I disagree about your statement about cities. I believe the way it should be looked at is human habitation SHOULD be confined to urban spaces with access, very readily, to nature and the view of the sky.

Our footprint on this earth would be greatly diminished if we developed livable cities. If nature was honored, if the forces within human society were respected in the design of cities and work that they fostered connection to people and the cosmos and not things, it would be a different world.

To assume that cities foster I don't know what, is wrong. Most of my experiences of the wonder of being alive and human have taken place within the cities. This wonder was triggered by access to nature, sunrises and sunsets, and the culture that happens in cities.

Might I remind you that Athens was a city and it gave birth, over 2000 years ago, of the greatest architecture, sculpturel, intellectual persuit and civil life that we have ever known.

To pretend that cities are the root of all evil is false. Cities (and economies) that do not recgonize and nuture the human spirit and the things needed to give birth to it, that do not recognize this amazing earth is the a big part of our problem.

Frankly, most of the people living in urban areas simply cannot move to rural areas for many reasons. Better advice would be to tell people to fight for livable cities with connections to nature, the sky, and honorable work.

running away is not the answer.

I wish you well and peace
rob

Reply from Barbara and Robert

I agree with Rob and so does Robert..for places like so many cities in Korea where cities save nature for all to enjoy..We are happy to hear from everyone..

Love, Barbara

[GMW #738] Moving To Land And Nature From Monstrous Cities

Idea Dreams 6001-6500

~ Idea 6044 ~

Since the 19th century there has been an attraction of youth by the big cities.

At the end of the 20th and beginning of the 21st centuries, due to environmental changes, youth begins to be attracted by the land, by nature instead of the monstrous, hopeless, unnatural cities. Thank God!

Robert's Golden Sayings

There is not a single school on Earth which teaches the children and youth their right place in the universe, in time, on our planet and in the human family. The entire humanity must be reprogrammed through a right global education. I give such a model in my world core curriculum. A first attempt was made in the Robert Muller Elementary School of Arlington, Texas, to adopt my curriculum. In 2000 there were 43Robert Muller schools in the world.
* Nobody thinks about the future political organization of our planet: each country thinks that its system is perfect and applicable to the rest of the world. None of them considers the new, crying needs of the planet and of humanity. None of them considers that there must be better ways of governing our Earth.

Most Of All They Taught Me Happiness By Robert Muller
Quotes and Notes from Vicky Rossi

#3 Quotation from the chapter entitled ?Father de Breuvery and Teilhard?, volume 4 ?Lessons from Other People?:

?Father de Breuvery once quoted to me Teilhard as saying:
?Mon Pere, someday people will understand that the sun, and only the sun, from which most other forms of energy are derived, is our great clean source of energy. Among the civilisations in the universe, the earth is a very primitive one, since it uses the energy of its own planet. Others utilize the energy of their sun, and still others harness the energy of the cosmos.??

My related comments:

The sun generates its energy from nuclear ?fusion? reactions deep in its core. Power generation in the form of nuclear fusion, as opposed to ?fission?, involves the ?bringing together? of atomic nuclei. An experimental thermo-nuclear ?fusion? reactor will be built at Cadarache, near Aix-en-Provence, France, with the aim of investigating how to supply the Earth with a non-exhaustible source of clean, inexpensive and safe energy. This project is called ITER, which means ?the way? in Latin (www.iter.org). ITER is an international project involving The People?s Republic of China, the European Union and Switzerland (represented by Euratom), Japan, the Republic of Korea, the Russian Federation, and the United States of America, under the auspices of the IAEA ? a physical manifestation of the ?fusion? of global interests.

In fact, there are many examples in our increasingly ?global? society of the ?fusion? or ?bringing together? of individual and group interests. For example, since the 1980s, the rise in the number of non-governmental organisations (NGO) has been most remarkable. According to the Union for International Organisations, international NGOs operating in 3 or more countries numbered just under 1000 in 1956. Forty years later, in 1996, the number was more than 28,000.

Nevertheless, given the law of polarity which seems to rule our earthly existence, there cannot be daylight without darkness, or hot without cold, etc. therefore the movement towards the ?fusion? of common human interests which we are currently witnessing is matched by a vehement move towards ?separation? seen, for example, in the increasingly numerous acts of international terrorism. Nevertheless, even these actions by fundamentalists, however mis-guided, are themselves still influenced by the present day tendency to ?fusion? ? e.g. the intention to create a caliphate (a united Islamic State) ? but in the instance of fundamentalists this drive towards ?fusion? negates the evolution already achieved by humankind in the form of individual freedoms and the development of the intellect. *

[GMW #737] Peace With Nature - Included In Peace Movements

Peace

~ Idea 1683 ~

It is henceforth essential to broaden the objectives of all peace movements on this planet to include also peace with nature, the biggest war ever on this planet. Peace movements should make it their priority issue.

Robert's Golden Sayings

Nothing is more important than life. From birth to death we know, we feel the centrality of our life. But so many people, values and things around us want to replace our centrality by theirs. The art of living is to protect and develop our own centrality.
* No person is ever totally self-realized or fulfilled. We learn and enrich ourselves until we die. We gain new capacities and we lose old ones. The art of living has no end. It is too rich to be exhausted in a single life.

A writer will never write all he wants to write

Hello dearest Friends,

May the water pollution on our planet end with our words of gratitude and love for the waters of our Earth for just 3 minutes of our time tomorrow..

This works for the water we drink too..happy water brings amazing results in our bodies.

I love you, Barbara Muller

Subject: A Prayer for Water on Monday, July 25th
Date:Sun, 24 Jul 2005 16:48:11 -0600

(Masaru Emoto's water crystal images were featured in "What the Bleep Do We Know".)
http://www.thank-water.net/english/

From Emoto...

In the beginning of April, I received an invitation to visit Brazil from NGO called A CRY OF WATER in Sao Paulo. I visited there about one week and gave 6 lectures in various places. During my visit, I was asked to take the lead in the ceremony to purify the water of Lake Pichucaba in Sao Paulo, for Lake Carapicuiba was heavily polluted recently (Photo below). Of course, I accepted that request and went to the lake with 30 friends on Sunday of the week. In fact, water of the lake was considerably polluted and gave off a terrible smell. And I was bewildered by the unexpected size of the lake. I thought the lake was too large for sending energy to all corners of the lake by 30 persons.

Lake Carapicuiba

After thinking for a while, I decided how to offer our prayer. First, I asked them to put the water of the lake into a 500 cc PET bottle. Then I asked them to join hands in a circle and put the bottle in the center of this circle. And I said, By this number, this lake is too large to pray directly to water. So let's offer a prayer to the water of this PET bottle. By doing this, this small quantity of water will resonate with the water of the whole lake and will surely bring about the same effect to the lake.

Gazing at the water, I said 3 times,

I Love You, Water. I Thank You, Water. I Respect You, Water.

Other people repeated the same after me. And we offered our thought to water for a minute

Prayer to the water of Lake Carapicuiba put in a 500 cc PET bottle placed in the center of our circle

I brought three PET bottles back to Japan. The 1st is water before a prayer, 2nd is water put in a PET bottle after a prayer, and the last is water of the lake after offering a prayer. Of course, I took pictures of those water crystals. The results are shown below.

Water of Lake Carapicuiba Water of Lake Carapicuiba in 500 cc PET bottle before the prayer placed at the center of our circle and prayed for

Water of Lake Carapicuiba

after the prayer

(We did nothing directly)

I myself led the prayer and got these images, subsequently. But I did not expect that we could take these pictures so perfectly in this way. When I saw these pictures, I got goose bumps and found no word to say. I found that what I am going to do on July 25th is to the point. I was moved deeply and was not able to hold back my tears.

Now you can imagine. On July 25th, we offer pure prayer to water in various places of the world, wishing the peace of our earth and human beings. Much water for praying is not required. Only a glass of water will do. And please pray for 3 minutes at home, at work, at the edge of the lake, at the riverside, at the lakeside, or at the beach. You may pray any time on July 25th. The waves generated by the HADO (vibration) of our sincere prayer will wrap in this wounded planet completely. A blueprint of our planet Earth and our human society filled with Love and Thanks and without any conflicts will be formed on this day.

Lets say together on July 25

I Love You, Water.

I Thank You, Water.

I Respect You, Water.

June 25th

President of the Project of Love and Thanks to Water

Masaru Emoto

[GMW #736] Elevating The Entire Planet Into The Spiritual, Cosmic Throbbing Of The Universe

Religion & Spirituality

~ Idea 3476 ~

At a conference on world peace and inner peace in May 1999 at the International School of Amsterdam created on the basis of my World Core Curriculum, the following thought of mine was the guideline:

"The time has come for the implementation of a spiritual vision of the world's affairs. The entire planet must elevate itself into the spiritual, cosmic throbbing of the universe."

During the conference these other statements were also cited:

"Our main task today is to raise individuals to a higher spiritual level enabling them to respect their inner selves and be impelled by a moral force."
Gorbachev

"If in the next ten years we do not succeed in giving a soul, a spirituality selfhood and a meaning to Europe our efforts will have been in vain."
Jacques Delors
President of the European Commission

"What I believe is that Europe needs more soul."
Jacques Santer

After I had won a long and difficult battle for the creation of a UN institution to help the poor countries, a British delegate had this dismal comment:

"You won, but we made you lose three years of your life."

Sometimes after several years, when I meet a western delegate who fought obstinately against the creation or strengthening of UN mechanisms for a better world, I ask this question:

"Don't you think we should suppress, say the regional banks created at the behest of the UN?"

The common reaction is:

"You must be crazy. They are eminently useful."

Whereupon I smile and say:

"Well, do you remember how bitterly you fought their creation years ago?"

[GMW #734] Celebrating The Million Of People Living Happy Lives

Ending War

~ Idea 3097 ~

I concentrate too much on governments, leaders, institutions, economics, politics. Behind all that there are hundreds of millions of happy families, happy mothers, fathers, children and grandparents. They manage to stick together in the worst circumstances as I was shown so vividly by my family during World War II.

We should therefore also have World Days of:

the family
fathers
mothers
children
grandparents

Re: [GMW #732] Reducing Over Consumption & Over Population For A Better World

Hi Robert and Barbara,

I have just returned from a thrilling Institute of Noetic Sciences conference in Washington D.C. where I met an amazing Brazilian creature. She is very brilliant, beautiful and respected throughout her country. Dulse's dream and passion is to have a Festival of Peace in Floritas, Brazil, September 1 thru 10. 2006. I want you both to be a major presence there as well as your University of Peace and take this occassion to help bring the world together to hold hands and celebrate what can be!!

Her hope is to have 60,000 people there, but also have simultaneous peace festivals around the world all interconnected. Let's talk and see how you suggest we proceed. All love, tahdi

[GMW #732] Reducing Over Consumption & Over Population For A Better World

Idea Dreams 6001-6500

~ Idea 6035 ~

If the level and amount of consumption and waste of the western ?rich? countries ever reaches the poor countries, it will mean the end of humanity. The big world corporations are busy doing it.

The production, selling, consumption, accumulation, wastes? and advertisement explosions in the western ?rich? countries and the continued population explosion in the poor countries will turn into major catastrophes.

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

When I was a little boy I considered fife to be divine and I had a sense of wonder at the whole Creation around me.

Then I was taught to hate other nations, I knew war and the horrors done by men to God's Creation.

Then God led me to the United Nations and I learned to love the entire Earth and all humanity.

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

[GMW #732] Peace & Justice Education To Remidy Injustice

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.

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.

Dear Howard and Robert,

Many thanks, Howard, for passing this to a man I admire -- Robert Muller, raised in an area and era of world conflict..
My father fought in the worst battles in France in W War 1 and admired the local people.

Both of you may know of Sir Norman Angell. Before World War 1 he wrote "The Great Illusion", as I think a journalist writing in English, French and German, warning the nations that were on a collision course and prescribing a peaceful alternative -- an international rule of law. Before World War 2 he published a sequel: "The Great Illusion -- Now".
It was brought to my attention by a fellow student (who later was in our federal cabinet with me). This book again predicted the carnage of W War 2 and prescribed the legal alternative. This persuaded me to begin my long support of the world federation objective. I've taken part in regional, national and international peace conferences, a UN delegation and so on.

In the past few years John Bunzl's "The Simultaneous Policy" has given me new hope of an inexorably growing grass roots movement which may be the best hope for a taking back the world from its militarizing and marketeering.

Best wishes

-- Doug Everingham

Hi, Z. Z., I agree we need actions.
I also address WorldCitizen-l@wikicities.com if I'm still their correspondent.

I suggest these actions toward world government:

1. Register your support for ISPO <www.simpol.org>

2. Join ISPO discussion lists where you can propose or support suggestions (including this)
for laws you want countries to accept or amend to achieve growing consensus among them
on international issues like disarmament, conservation, equity and cooperation.
When enough of them agree they will have taken the step eventually unavoidable --
admitting the need for surrendering sovereignty on international legal issues to a world government.

3. Join with enough other ISPO supporters in your country to contact every candidate for your next national election individually
asking her/him to join ISPO, responding to you as one of the growing number of ISPO supporters
pledged to give voting preference to ISPO supporting candidates.

3. Keep ISPO co-ordinators, voters, parliamentarians and others informed of those candidates' responses
and of the growing numbers of supporting voters, legislators and organizations adopting ISPO
and its developing multilateral policy planks, stressing that adopting ISPO binds legislators to implement such planks
but -- to avoid 'first mover' disadvantage -- only when sufficient other countries agree to do the same simultaneously.

We have pursued this course before the last national elections in Australia and the UK and plan to expand the process.
It should make it increasingly harder for governments to refuse to join movements and commitments
to accept and construct democratic world government.

Cheers

[GMW #730] Only Good, Beautiful, Inspiring Names For Places & People

Idea Dreams 6001-6500

~ Idea 3426 ~

I recommend a world movement for giving only good, beautiful, inspiring names to natural sites, cities, streets, buildings, people, children, etc. in order to create more beauty, happiness, elevation and philosophy all around us on this beautiful planet Earth.

There are already many. For example the Pacific Ocean, the names of saints for cities, for children.

Etymological records should be established for a whole series of names: the names of countries, of natural sites, of cities, villages, streets, family names, personal names. Those would be fascinating records to provide inspiration.

All new streets, cities and communities should be given beautiful, elevating, lovable, inspiring names.

People should also give beautiful names to their homes which mean so much to them, etc. Dear reader, add your own suggestions.

Food For Thought from Connie Day

One day a father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the
country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people live. They
spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a
very poor family.

On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, "How was the
trip?"

"It was great, Dad."

"Did you see how poor people live?" the father asked.

"Oh yeah," said the son.

"So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?" asked the father.

The son answered:
"I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We have a pool that reaches
to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end. We have
imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night. Our patio
reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.
We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond
our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy our
food, but they grow theirs. We have walls around our property to protect
us, they have friends to protect them."

The boy's father was speechless.

Then his son added, "Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we are."

Isn't perspective a wonderful thing? Makes you wonder what would happen if
we all gave thanks to God for everything we have, instead of worrying about
what we don't have.

Quotes with notes on Robert's book Most of all They Taught Me Happiness,

Quotation #2 from the chapter entitled ?U Thant?s Four Roads to Happiness?, volume 4 ?Lessons from Other People?:

?Modern man has reduced morality and spirituality to a minimum, often to a mere hour in church on Sunday. He has chased it from everyday life, from public service, political life, work, schools, and the media. How many political men and businessmen would dare to practice morality and spirituality in their offices with the same fervour as they do shrewdness and intelligence? U Thant could not understand it. And I can?t either.?

My related comments:

Indeed it often appears to be almost a crime if a person openly declares their spiritual beliefs beyond the walls of their church or meditation room, so deep is the cleavage between ?daily life? and spiritual practice. Yet it is likely that only through the ?spiritualization? of day-to-day reality can the answer be found that will bring an end to injustice and violent conflict. Conflict in itself is, of course, not a negative thing as it is often representative of the need to cross over a threshold into a newer, brighter sphere.

However, if spiritual perspectives could be assimilated into everyday living, including in the work place and on the international political scene, there would appear clear indications of the ways in which conflict can be transcended without the recourse to violence.

The challenge, nevertheless, would remain for humanity to correctly interpret those truths which lie at the heart of all spiritual and religious practices without distorting them to make them fit into the pockets of vested interests and biased perspectives. For many adults it is, perhaps, too late to learn this new way of being and acting; the hope for the future, therefore, lies in the education of the children and young people, especially since oftentimes they experience an innate idealism and vision which, unless nurtured, is eventually snubbed out by the ?norms? of modern day society.

Re: [GMW #727] Never Give Up

Dear Barbara and Robert,

Thank you so much for sharing your message. It was truly what I needed to hear this morning as I begin working on my proposal for a program that I piloted two years ago called Stop Fighting and Start Connecting. This program teaches both adults and children how to find peace within themselves, release their anger safely, develop effective interpersonal communication skills, and create empathy and reverence for one another. I will be personally leading seminars on this topic, training others to implement the program, and releasing several books and workbooks to help those in need create the types of relationships they truly deserve.

After reading your message I truly know I am on the right path and will continue to work diligently until the program has fully blossomed.

You are a the brightest of lights and your inspiration has enabled me to reach higher that I ever could imagine.

Thank you so very much and may you continue to be blessed as you bless others with your extraordinary gifts.

Sending love and light,

[GMW #727] Never Give Up

Idea Dreams 6001-6500

~ Idea 1924 ~

Never give up if you have an idea in which you believe profoundly, an idea that will improve the peace, the happiness and the living conditions of your human brothers and sisters. I will narrate here an anecdote from my own life:

Many years ago in the 1950's a proposal was made by two great Latin American UN people, Raul Prebish from Argentina and Hernan Santa Cruz from Chile. It was to create a United Nations Marshall Plan of a revolving nature. Poor countries would repay interest free, long-term loans at a time when they would be developed. The debates on this took years. Both Raul Prebish and Hernan Santa Cruz returned to their countries.

I remained one of the lone fighters for this idea that was staunchly opposed by the United States because they said nobody on Earth should get loans at fuzzy or no rates of interest or for long-term periods of time. This would disrupt the normal banking system. The proposal was known as SUNFED, Special UN Fund for Economic Development. At one point the US State Department sent a former colleague of mine who said to me: Robert, we are sick and tired to get all these cables about what you try to do. You should stop. We and our western allies will never agree to this proposal as you perfectly know.

I answered him: Well, I will stop only when you give in. The earlier you give in the less cables you will receive. After that, a last determining meeting took place for a final voting on the proposal.

To the astonishment of everyone, the German delegate instead of voting against it voted in favor! The western delegations withdrew for consultations and after a while came back and voted in favor of it, including the US. The plan was passed.

After the meeting was over I asked the German delegate why Germany changed its vote. He answered: Germany did not. I did. I was commander of a German tank Division in the second World War. When I heard a man like you who had the courage and tenacity to continue his fight for an idea he considered a blessing for the world, I broke my instructions and voted in favor. I salute you from the bottom of my heart.

My own heart is full of joy when I remember that today. This is how the United Nations Development Program was born - first named Special Fund for Development, one of the biggest aid programs on Earth which otherwise might not have been created.

What I would have missed in my life if I hadn't worked for the UN! I should rewrite in golden letters the essay on world government which opened to me the doors of the UN as a young man.

Robert's Golden Sayings

Each human person should practice four optimisms:

optimism of thought (intelligence)
optimism of heart (love)
optimism of action (activism)
optimism of soul (spirituality)

As a result, all our vital forces will be mobilized and a successful life will ensue. Since we live, why not try to live fully in every respect, to the highest, fullest ideals?

?
Never be negative in intention
Never be negative in thoughts
Never be negative in ideas
Never be negative in words
Never be negative in action

Here is a special birthday greeting to you, Easy. I've really appreciated all of your sincere, caring
efforts in regard to the Good Morning World messages. Even more so, I've been touched by
the sincere spirit and nature of the caring regard you have afforded me individually when I
have ordered additional copies of the little booklets, Robert's Golden Sayings. Your promptness
and efficiency were amazing and did a great deal to bolster the morale of the recipients.

I love this community of Colorado Springs and the natural beauty of the surroundings,
especially as a Colorado native, but am also very much aware that outside groups moving in here
have made it very difficult to exercise peaceful and progressive views and accompanying
actions. Therefore, I have been especially aware and appreciative of your prompt, courteous
and considerate responses and thoughtful supportiveness when, where and how it was most
needed.

Happy Birth and Rebirth Day! With peace and continuing light, Margery (Layton)

were there in person to wish him a happy B'Day in
their own way. You can let Easy know that a group who
had not met him and don't know him fully well are
ready to wish him all the best for his birthday. May
the good Lord give him great health, peace and love he
needs to continue his supportive work.

I will try and send the photos in time along with hand
made Birthday greetings.

More later. Antony - UK

Dear Easy,

Wishing you a very 'Happy Birthday' and Many more to come.

I am writing to you from Central America where we take GMW to 'heart' each and every morning.

We appreciate, very much, you being there and working on behalf of all of us around the World. Your efforts are always above and beyond the call and the incredible effort that you put into your help on this really valuable cause is especially appreciated by me personally and I have benefited from being inspired all those mornings, reading GMW. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You !!!

SURPRISE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, EASY. CELEBRATE THE WHOLE YEAR THE WAY YOU WANT. ENJOY!

BEST REGARDS,

THE COLOR OF LOVE

How pretentious I am!
Is my heart's desire
to reach the star I love?

And how do I know
about the right one for me?
In a dream I see myself
comfortably sitting
with my friends
the moon, the sky ...
Oh! the stars are waiting.

Let us have FUN
the whole box of crayons I will use
we'll paint the stars
the color of LOVE
one by one
let us use green
blue or pink
let us use white
yellow or red
let us use black.

Because LOVE
is the motive of my life
the rainbow
what keeps my fingers occupied
Because all I want
is to make each and every moment
the hearts to smile
Because dreaming I gave form
to my destiny
Because in my hand
I am holding
the ONE
the glue of life.

I am here
I am listening
I care

To my sweet love and inspiration
Feliz Cumpleaños Easy!

Catalina

[GMW #725] Unexploiting Earth

Earth's Ecology

~ Idea 2823 ~

Thank God that the seas and oceans and high mountains occupy more than eighty percent of the Earth surface. If not, the entire Earth would be 'owned', claimed, occupied, 'developed', exploited and soon destroyed by humans at their current rate of so-called ' economic progress' and endless increasing 'wanting more'.

[GMW #724] A World-wide Survey Of All Cultures On Earth

Ending War

~ Idea 3044 ~

What incredible wisdom, knowledge and ideas we would find in a world-wide survey of all the cultures on Earth, past and present! Such a survey would reveal to us the ways to be followed and those to be avoided in our future journey on this planet.

Instead of that, the energies of most human groups are devoted to persuade us that their beliefs, their group, their religion, their ideology, their way of life are the only valid ones and even merit to go to war to get them accepted by the vanquished!

How long will such aberration, such blindness continue on this Earth? The UN and its agencies and world programs should be strengthened many times to pursue their efforts on this problem.
*

Daily Idea Dream Topics: Peace, Idea Dreams 6001-6500, Ending War,

Robert's Golden Sayings

How do we evolve and toward what? That is the basic question of our time. Not only, how do we develop.
* If you have reached cosmic consciousness, you are forever at peace. You understand everything and everyone. Nothing and no one can dismay you, not even death.
* Feel the all-pervading power of the universe. Be a crossroads of the cosmic flows. Be an intersection of infinity and eternity, which indeed you are.
* When you have achieved cosmic or divine consciousness, you will no longer care for minor earthly values, such as power, glory, wealth, titles. You will be indifferent to them because they are valueless in the cosmic order. You will find joy in sharing the miracle of life with other human beings, and others will find joy in sharing it with you.
*

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

People often tell me: "You have done so much for the United Nations." In reality, they will never know how little I did and how much the UN has done for me. It was a beautiful love story of a mother for her child. I hope to write as much as I can about it in order to inspire others.

Re: [GMW #723] Issues To Work On For A Better Fate Of The Earth

Dear Robert & Barbara & other fellow dreamers & practitioners,

I have a suggestion for "Ideas-Dreams":

A world-wide conference should be convened to discuss how two or more peoples &/or ethnic groups might get along together, fruitfully, in the same (more or less limited) geographic territory. Representatives should come from such places as Belgium, Switzerland, & Canada that are relatvely successful;as well as those now in transition, such as Cyprus & perhaps Ireland,a well as those who presently deadlocked, such as Sri Lanka, Palestine-Israel, and Armenia/Azerbaijan. Large, highly multi-ethnic societies, such as the US & Brazil, are also important, while recognizing that conditions vary greatly throughout our wonderful world & that no one (or more) approach(es) will fit everywhere. People well-versed in bio-regionalism would also add depth & perspective.

If Amerindians would not take offense, l would suggest that we put that in our pipes & cogitate upon it....

Re: [GMW #710] Better Ways Of Responding To Challenge Of Terrorism

Risa,

I loved what you wrote about world servers. I have been working for a long while to create a television program about world servers, servers of humanity. There are so many on earth now that we don't hear about and if we did hear about them, the world would change again just in the hearing. The "One Campaign" that we recently saw on television about the G8 meeting to consider making a difference in world poverty is just such a manifestation of world service. Many people in Hollywood, in music and other prominent people came together in a united consortium of spirit called the One Campaign to make a difference in the vote that comes up this Wednesday in the G8 meeting on poverty.

In reference to Alice Bailey, the evidence of the new spirit of inclusiveness, the First Ray that is of Unity, a united will, is evidenced by the One campaign. The First Ray, according to Bailey, is just now coming into existence and is actually creating a world servers. Those of us who think of humanity as One are bringing in this new energy. It does need much financial resources to really manifest the changes, especially in television. My own work is on hold until the much needed resources are made available.

Love and blessings to you all.

[GMW #723] Issues To Work On For A Better Fate Of The Earth

Idea Dreams 6001-6500

~ Idea 6033 ~

The following phenomena are of primary concern at the beginning of this third millennium:

Population increase
Climate changes
Atomic weapons
Ozone depletion
Bigness and overpopulation of cities
Hunger in some parts of the world and over consumption in others
Destruction of nature and her vital elements
Economics considered first in human affairs instead of being second to the environment, to nature and to the fate of the Earth

I was just gettingready to send our young Assoc. Minister at church a copy of a letter that I sent to Sen.
Salazar on Saturday.

I thought you might be interested, too, so will send a copy of that to you along with a statement that Ben
(young Assoc. Min) made at a recent breakfast gathering of a local group called Citizens
Project.

Citizens Project was formed by 3 people at the time of Amendment #2 that caused Colo.
to be known as the "hate state". (It began here in Colorado Springs, I'm sorry to say!) We've
come a long way since then although it's still always an uphill struggle here.

My own roots go very deep in Colorado, having been born and growing up in Canon City (about 1 l/2 hours
from here)and coming with my parents over here in the 30's and early 40's to visit my maternal
Uncle who did a lot of stonework here in town, as he did in Canon and in various
places all over the country.

So I tend to think of Focus on the Family, etc. as "transplants" rather than representing this community. A city councilperson, Richard Skorman, who was part
of the initial effort to form Citizens Project, later being elected to council, spoke the other
morning, too, about our need to know that we are Colorado Springs.

I chatted with him afterwards, reinforcing that via my own background. I dug out some old postcards and pictures from around 1910 showing various buildings, etc. here, had them copied and will share those
with him as well.

Peace and light, Margery

Here's the copy of my letter that I mentioned, followed by Ben's comments at the breakfast.

June 25, 2005

Sen. Ken Salazar
c/o Matt Lee Ashley
3 South Tejon
300B
Colorado Springs, Colorado 80903

Dear Sen. Salazar:

Thank you for your gracious and thoughtful messages.

As a long time member of Amnesty International, I am especially aware of AI's consistent,
continuing record of integrity, veracity and reliability, along with its honorable worldwide
dedication to the preservation of human rights. Therefore, I was especially glad to read that
Rep. Waxman, joined by Rep. Pelosi and 170 other members of Congress, have
introduced legislation to establish an Independent Commission to investigate abuses of
detainees. (See enc.)

I believe it to be a sound, sensible, comprehensive and intelligent approach that could
effectively contribute to the advancement of human rights everywhere.

I heard Bill Moyers say on TV the other day, "What doesn't have credibility today is the
truth". I believe the Waxman proposal does us all a great service by shining the light of
truth into the opening created by Amnesty and others and hope that it will be strongly
supported in spite of all of the noisy, rambunctious distractions to the contrary.

I hope that these reflections may contribute a bit to your sincere and dedicated endeavors.

With light and hope,

Margery
Colorado Springs, Colorado

Ben's comments at the breakfast

Good morning and peace to you all. My name is Benjamin Broadbent. I am a third generation Christian minister " I call it "the curse and the blessing" and I serve as the Associate Minister at First Congregational United Church of Christ on the corner of Tejon and St. Vrain, founded in 1849.

Last week I met a woman who knew my grandfather when he served as a minister in New Hampshire in the 1960's. She remembered that he counseled conscientious objectors to the draft during the Vietnam War. He was a witness to his generation that religious freedom means freedom of conscience, a conscience free of coercion, whether religious or political or an alliance of the two.

I want to take just a moment to talk about religious freedom and why it's important in Colorado Springs. When any one religion, or form of religion, is regarded as the sole moral and political voice, diversity is threatened, creativity is squelched, and religious beliefs get passed along as common sense.

The theologian and anthropologist Teilhard de Chardin said, "Any religion which does not assert first and foremost the mystery of God is a lie." To support religious freedom is to assert that no one person or group of people are capable of cornering the market on ultimate truth. Ultimate truth is ultimate because it remains mysterious.

Don't get me wrong, I am a lifelong Christian, and yet my truck is the one in the parking lot that says "Remember when this (Christian fish symbol) wasn't a warning label?" My vocation is to recover and promote the generous, loving, life-giving message that I believe is at the heart of my faith tradition. So often in this community this seems to be an uphill battle.

The Citizen's Project promotes the concept of religious freedom, and actually promotes the free practice of religion by inviting people of diverse faith backgrounds, even no faith background, to act with common conviction and purpose.

The community protest of the hate group from Kansas that picketed at Palmer High School is a case in point. Many of us representing churches and other spiritual groups were invited to endorse the event. At the event, I was inspired to be in the company of, and to stand on common ground with, brothers and sisters of multiple spiritual stripes. My own vision of God was enlarged that day. "God," I prayed, "you're gonna make something happen today. Your church will not be confined by walls today. You're calling everybody and anybody to get off their duff today."

I'm grateful to the Citizen's Project for making events like that happen. I am grateful to the Citizen's Project for organizing public forums where people of diverse spiritual opinions may share them respectfully. I am grateful to the Citizen's Project for enlarging the debate about the role of religion in public life. I am grateful to the Citizen's Project for acting on behalf of religious freedom for all citizens and for encouraging people of differing traditions and opinions to engage honestly and constructively within the wider society.

[GMW #721] A Yearly Good Deed Declaration Filed With Taxes

Idea Dreams 6001-6500

~ Idea 1037 ~13 May 1997

I hope that someday all people will receive a Yearly Good Deeds Declaration to fill out when they receive a Yearly Tax Declaration.

It could include such items as:

PEACE:
What good and peace did you teach your children?
What peace did you contribute to your family, to your neighborhood, to your workplace?
What peace association did you belong to or support?

THE ENVIRONMENT
What did you do for a better environment, a reduction of garbage, of gasoline consumption, of water and energy consumption?
What did you do for a more frugal and simple life, for a lower consumption of Earth resources?

HAPPINESS
What did you do to cultivate your own happiness?
Happiness in your family?
Happiness all around you?
Happiness in your workplace?
What philanthropy, what voluntary services did you provide?

GOOD HEALTH
What good health practices did you foster in your family?
What were your own good examples of good health?
Did you stop smoking?
Did you stop consuming alcohol and tell your family that it is an Arabic word (al kohol) which means the devil?

SPIRITUALITY
Did you give thanks for the miracle of life and the beauty of this Earth?
What did you do for your soul?
Did you pray, read good spiritual writings and precepts?
Did you go to spiritual services?

And one could conceive other items: Love, honesty, truth, morality, fidelity, forgiveness, etc.

The result of such a questionnaire would be as important if not more than the contribution of taxes to government expenses. A better society would ensue. A whole system of tax exemptions could be built on such a questionnaire. There could be for example tax deductions for voluntary services.
