Principles Part 2, Definitions Part 6-The Principle of the Two Joys - Inheritors and Creators


The Universe has been created based on the so-called "Principle of the Two Joys".

There are two kinds of Joys in the World; the one is carefree, innocent, the childish joy. The other is the mature, the knowing, the toil-born.

Why is the World created thusly? I guess it is necessary for the evolution of the Structures. For change and progress to take place. The "childish" Joy is the force of renewal, the promise of future. The "mature" Joy is the one that builds, the one that gives meaning.

We people, as we are born, grow up and then grow old, we pass through a blend of the Two Joys, first being children and then adults, but, in truth, always partaking in both of them.


Through these two kinds of Joys, emerge two kinds of people: The "Inheritors" and the "Creators".

The Inheritors are the people who are content enough with the World they live in and they thrive in it... they inherit the World... and are more connected with the "childish" Joy.

The Creators are those who cannot find solace in the World they live in, so they are compelled to create new things that express them and make them feel they belong. The Joy they feel more is the "mature" one.

Of course, no-one is solely an Inheritor or just a Creator. We all have our roots, our "yeast" and we all contribute something new to the World we live in.
Still, some people are more happy with the way things are and others constantly envision something new...

I, for one, feel more like a Creator, in case you haven't guessed it already...
