“The answer to war isn’t peace. It’s creativity”

Quinta Ten Chi is an epicenter for the transformation of humanity.
From Ego to Eco, we listen to the universe’s emergent future songs to tune in with our hearts, heads and hands and be conscious co-creators of a world of peace, abundance and love.
We take time to listen to our bodies, each other and nature.
We thrive collectively and inspire others to flourish in collaboration and celebration of diversity.
As Sarah Yip, scientist turned astrologer, says “The answer to war isn’t peace. It’s creativity.”
What is creativity?
The first definition we find on the web is: the use of imagination or original ideas to create something; inventiveness.
And that seems only to move the question to a different level:
– what is imagination and what are original ideas?
– Where do the things that we never imagined come from?
– Are they something born in the head of an individual person? Or belong to a different level of explanation?
How you look at these questions can really change your perspective on life and on what is necessary to allow creativity.
We create from a collective dream

Our Approach: Theory U
QTC perspective, rooted in Theory U, suggests that a truly creative act, at any level, starts from a process of introspection – at either individual or collective level.
Where does the person, or system, see the world from?
What preconceptions do he/she/they bring to the process?
AND then be able to let go of what we already know – coming to a place of Presence in which we are Sensing what wants to emerge (Presencing).
This process invites first our mind, then our heart and will to open up and
from this empty space of surrendering to the Unknown, see what seeds are ready to be sown…..
Looked at from this perspective Creativity feels much less like a private endeavor of a gifted individual or group, and more a way of Being that allows anyone to connect with what wants to Emerge at each moment.
And if Creativity is, like Yip suggests, the true response to War, we can dream of a world in which each individual is supported and encouraged to allow creative contributions to flow!
Creativity Festival is that world!
