CREATIVE ABILITIES OF MINORITIES

Law of Nature

IN recent times there has been a great deal of research done on ‘minorities’ and ‘majorities’. This research has highlighted numerous issues that were hitherto not known or not properly understood. One of these issues is about creativity and about how certain conditions encourage people to be creative—in terms of ideas or practical work.

When there are two groups in a society—a majority and a minority— then, according to the law of nature, a sort of gulf is created. As a result of this gulf, a process is set in motion, which nurtures the creative abilities of the minority. It acts as an incentive to the minority, enabling them to progress.

When there are two groups in a society—a majority and a minority—then, according to the law of nature, a sort of gulf is created. As a result of this gulf, a process is set in motion, which nurtures the creative abilities of the minority. It acts as an incentive to the minority, enabling them to progress.

This process is evident in every country where there is a majority and one or more minorities. In such a situation, the process that promotes creative abilities among the minority is always set in motion, whether or not direct efforts are made for this. If this process of nature is not blocked, it will function on its own, till it reaches its culmination.

There is only one thing that can stop this process of creativity. And that is, if the minority develops a violent mentality. If leaders lacking foresight emerge among the minority who stir up their people with emotional rhetoric and, drowning them in negative thinking, lead them on the path of hate and violence, the process of creativity will definitely stop. Otherwise, this process will never—under any conditions—come to a halt. This is, you could say, nature’s decision. And nothing, except for suicide, can stop nature’s decision.
