Creativity VS Education



A great, renowned author, spokesman and creationist Ken Robinson exclaimed in his presentation conference that Pablo Picasso said that "All children are born artist, but the problem is to remain an artist as we grew up".

According to my literal prediction and rational rumination creativity is a consequent products of imagination, creativity is the most powerful aspect of your imagination and thinking, It is what provocates your innovation, and abdicates you with power to construct your valuable thoughts, but always be heedful and aware of the fact that "where there is a positron, there must be an electron", and that electron is education. Education is what have turned ourselves onto us. Our modern era and civilization seems to forget that Education is a remorseless and persistent assassin of creativity. It is a natural, well-agreed consensus and fact that 
"Humans don't grow in circumference of creativity, they grow out of it or in other words they get educated.
Education serves a purpose of training us to demoralize creativity and to chained in the devalued principles and irreasonable, irrelevant, irrational and baseless rules formed by our so called educational organizations and academic institutions. Creativity fundamentally means an independent and free mind to think, imagine and innovate, indeed a free mind, even though it converts us in a free-flying human from a order-abiding robot, whereas education serves a counter-purpose, it enslaves and enchains us. So, every human has their own particular creative capacities and unpredictability is extra-ordinary. Even, if you recall and immortalize psychologically those astute and prompting personalities, lets suppose and think of William Shakespeare, Charles dikins, R.W Emerson, William Wordsworth, Albert Einstein and Socrates studying in a highly-standardized and comprehensive school of these days, reckon as they are sitting in a class of agglomeration of students, If our today's teacher intends to ask a probable question from them, and then the answer would be so curious, scrutinizing and intrusive with philosophical diction, with vague and ambiguous structures and filled with highly efficient conundrums that teacher would be compulsively saying in the end, Emerson, Stop speaking like that ! you are perplexing and puzzling people, and your fellows are getting annoyed. So, It is my perception that "If you want to create something new, learn something new, don't educate yourself ", because education is what others do to us, and learning is what we do to ourselves. So I am just alluding that to educate yourself is too abide the orders of professors. I would accentuate this message to all responsible parents, assiduous learners, aspiring teachers, educationists, professors and all appreciated readers that education is prevarication from your inner-voice and equivocation from the inner-realities, and that the truth ! Education is a vast process, but the only successful outcome it gives is that it generates the successful professors, who have their abode-head, and their body is meaningless to them, Education also generates bureaucrats, pedant-CSS officers and retiring businessmen. On contrary and antithetically creativity has extravagant and exorbitant outcome, in the form of leaders, poets, laureates, authors, writers, effusive politicians, theoretical and experimental physicist, theologians, philosophers, pragmatists, reformists, revolutionists, creationists, biologist, entrepreneurs, philanthropist, billionaires, multi-millionaires, scientists, chemist, pharmacologists, novelist, essayist, lawyers, purist and successful CEO's of successful organizations. But there are exceptions, which neither attain education nor evoke their creativity, and they are jobless, poor, wretched and despairing people.

 There is also bewildering and awe-inspiring illustration of today’s people perspective about creativity. There is a famous choreographer and ballerina Dame Gillian Barbara Lynne, when she was 13 year old, school wrote a letter to her mother that she is not properly concerning on her aim of learning here; she is fidgeting and has lack of focus. So, her mother took her to hospital. After hearing everything her mother said, the doctor told Lynne that he needed to talk her privately for a moment. When the doctor went out of the room, he did a reasonable mistake which changed Gillian’s life, he turned on the radio in that room, when they came back, Gillian was on her feet dancing, the doctor said to her mother she has nothing like ADHD or a mental disorder, she is naturally a dancer, take her to a dancing school, she is gifted. So, education contradicts the idea of natural-born or god gifted talent. Even today, people learning in so-called institution are called failed successful people.

 It is my intuition that “The successfulness of a person does not depends on his education, and that’s the mistake most of us people do in their parenting or literary career, what we do is that we admit our child to a comprehensive and co-educational boarding school thinking that he will be Steve jobs, Richard Branson, Oprah Winfrey, Mark Zuckenberg, Henry Ford, Steven Spielberg, believe me, none of them became successful because of their education, but it was because of their creativity. Even, if you say that education was their main reason to be successful, then the people like Socrates, Malcolm X, Mohammad Ali, Mother Teresa, Shakespeare, Beethoven, Sean carter, Michael Jordan, Michael Joseph Jackson, these all are successful and prosperous and also uneducated, so as I said education doesn't decide the successfulness, it is decide by your intended-learning and creativity. I am not saying education is desecrating, but the meaning that schools have given it is desecrating!

 Proverb 17:16: It does a fool, no good to spend money on education, because he has no common sense. It is not correct that school is wicked, bad and immoral, but it reroutes your aims, targets and objectives. So, clarify your goals, and re-assist your aims, because when you will be clear to yourself, everything in world would become crystal-clear to you and does just that.

Redefine education or follow creativity gem .
