• THE CONCEPT OF INDIVIDUALITY

It takes wisdom to build a nation and equally for one to be a nation builder. Profound and prolific wisdom is a product of mental development achieved through mind illumination and regeneration.

MENTAL DEVELOPMENT

 

 Mental development is a compulsory requirement in the school of wisdom. To achieve mental development, the human mind must be subjected to the intense impartation of quality knowledge, resulting in mind illumination and regeneration.

 

When the human mind is illuminated and regenerated, the four faculties of the mind (creative, thinking, reasoning, and imaginative faculties) are empowered to function in their highest efficacy and potency, resulting in wisdom. Wisdom is expressed as great insight, foresight, ideas, inventions, innovations, discoveries, and creations which serve as concrete blocks for nation-building and global advancement in all sphere.


MIND ILLUMINATION

 

 Illumination is like a flood of light inside a human mind capable of activating hyper-intelligence, creativity, and a mastery of knowledge within a human mind that has it. When the human mind is exposed to quality knowledge for a long time, it reaches a point of saturation and then undergoes an explosion, resulting in wisdom.

 

Quality knowledge is principle base information that reveals the governing operational dynamics of matter (existence). Quality knowledge inspires, motivates, prepares, activates, challenges, and transforms the human mind for positive mental activities.

 

With mind illumination, the four faculties of the mind are tuned to operate in correct perspective and perception. At that point, an individual is given the knowledge of what, why, where, when, who, and how.

 

Very little of mind illumination is acquire through ordinary and advanced knowledge. That explains why the greatest genius uses only 2% of their mind power. The reason is that ordinary and advanced knowledge has a limit by which it can tune the human mind. Great illumination is only possible through adequate intake of principle-based knowledge, which lays bare the governing operative dynamics of matter (existence). At that level, humanity interacts with divinity and appropriates divine virtues within. This level is impossible without a God dimension; this is greater than religion. It’s were reality meets with actuality.


MIND REGENERATION

 

Mind regeneration is an essential aspect of mind empowerment. It is the rebirth, renewal, and empowerment of the mind made possible when an individual experiences illumination. Illumination initiates regeneration; they are relative.

 

Illumination is the fundamental knowledge that God intended man to operate with. Until an individual’s mind is renewed via illumination, such cannot function in the fullness of their potential.

 

With mind illumination and regeneration, the human mind is brought to the point of complete empowerment, where the four faculties of the mind are empowered to their original potency. At this point, human insight, ideas, creativity, invention, and innovation, etc. are equal to the need of the time and the challenges of the future.

 

Nations are in tumult today because of the absence of individuals who, through illumination and regeneration, are custodians of true wisdom. With this wisdom, answers which have eluded humanity for hundreds of years can be obtained. This is the power of the age to come. Strive to be part of it.


TRUE WISDOM

This is wisdom made possible through the process of mental illumination and regeneration, with the outcome of the effective functioning of the four faculties of the mind: Thinking, reasoning, Creative and Imaginative faculties. 

Wisdom may take the form of profound and prolific insight, foresight, ideas, innovation, inventions, creations, and discoveries.


PRODUCTS OF WISDOM

I) INSIGHT

 

It is the mental ability to look into, grasp, and comprehend depths of facts and issues concerning ‘what was and is’. Insight is the penetrative ability of the mind to explore the past and present. It leads to great understanding and stability, as one’s mind digs and grasps the past and present. With men of insight, solutions to a nation’s present crises are easily gotten. Every society needs builders with great insight. Individuals who can dig into the present to bring out answers to difficult questions and solutions to outstanding problems.

 

With the challenges of nation-building in the 21st century, people of rear insight are imperative in all spheres. They can look into a system and identify the problem. They can dictate faults in national and global machinery. People of insight are the eyes that see into the past and present experiences of a nation, to come out with every valuable breakthrough needed for national direction.


II) FORESIGHT

 

 It is the mental ability to grasp the future in the present, with a clear comprehension of ‘what is to come’. Foresight is the force that grabs the future. With men of foresight, it is easy to see into the future and come out with plans to shape it. Any society void of men of foresight will be a society with instability in the future. Nations with foresight have 100 years plan, while those without foresight have yearly plans, and both can’t have the same destination. One will be backward, operating behind time, while the other will be ahead of time. Lack of builders with insight has left many nations 100 years behind those with foresight.  


III) IDEAS

            These are cognitive information, mental pictures of things, plans, actions, and strategy, which can be converted to actualities to alter situations and circumstances or to birth a new era. Ideas are things as thoughts. Projects as plans, objects as subjects, manifestations as imaginations. The force of ideas is the power that brings the invisible into the visible.

 

Every giant project began as an idea. With several ideas, a nation can change its story from a weak to a strong nation in virtually all areas. An impoverished nation is not necessarily a nation without money, but one void of people of ideas. In the building of a nation, people of ideas are imperative. Ideas can become inventions, innovations, and creations.

Another inspiring piece that stirs the soul and the imagination. In some of my earlier novels I had the concept of Fundamental Thought which was in a sense like Rousseau's Tabula Rasa. It was what the mind was like prior to it being invaded by perceptions and interactions with the outside world. In these novels, characters aspired to reach this Fundamental Thought to give them the wisdom to carry out their challenges. I am going to have to tell my friends about you. I know they will enjoy what you have to say.

Dr. Etta,
I really like your article. I do believe that we are here to serve. Our mission in life is to find out in which capacity. I am a very strong believer in what John F. Kennedy said " Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country." That statementy I take to heart because when can only find meaning in life when we lose ourselves to service to others. Then life becomes very meaningful. That is why I became a school teacher.

Great thoughts about life and well put "Life is not measured by what we acquire, but by what we inspired".
Definition of LIFE can be viewed from different aspects. If I should hold myself within the above concept I agree in your saying. To not leave the earth as failures we sould leave a legacy of inspiration to inspire.
