Excerpts from Recent Lectures and Guidance

You have just witnessed the amazing transformational skills and abilities of these animals and insects.

Amazing, aren’t they? We now understand that animals have amazing abilities.
Then, what about us? For example, it is difficult for us to have an 8.0 visionlike the kitethat flies in the sky. We cannot run as fast as the cheetah, either. However, there is something that only we human beings have.

What kind of power is it? It is a special power that only humans have. Today, I would like all of you to remember this. The special power that only humans have is “Power of Creativity.” Power of Creativity. Now watch the words on the screen very carefully. What exactly is this power of creativity?

First of all, creativity is a power that produces what makes people prosperousand happy. It is to create things that would make people’s lives more joyful, convenient, vital, and peaceful.

Another aspect of creativity is related to what makes people suffer, there are many of them. Creativity is a power that removes such harsh things that oppressand distress people, things that make people unhappy originatingfrom the world. To get rid of problems that distress and harm many people..

The power to create in order to make everyone in the world wealthier and happier, and the power to eliminate things that harm and hurt people—this is the power of creativity, everyone.

When you hear creativity, you may think, “The ants we saw a while ago also are able to build delicate and complicated nest that reaches deep into the ground against which even the Sky Tree Tower can’t compete” However, the power of creativity of human beings is completely different from that of ants. We possess a great power of a different quality.

What exactly is this power like? The first characteristicof human creativity is that when a certain person makes a certain object, then the next person receives the baton as in a baton relay and improves the object, powering it up. The next person receives that and further improves the object into something of better quality and a higher level, and into something more useful and more efficient at removing problems, it improves to become something brilliant. The baton is handed down on and on as in a relay. Human beings have the power of creativity of this kind.
