Tianfu (Natural Talent)¶
In the Lifechanyuan system, "tianfu" (天赋, natural talent / innate endowment) encompasses two interrelated dimensions — first, the innate talents and qualities Heaven has encoded into each life: genius is not cultivated after birth but inherited from the accumulated consciousness of past lives; second, the natural rights Heaven bestows upon every person: the right to think, to be free, and the other rights the Greatest Creator has given as inalienable gifts. The holographic principle implies that everyone is a genius — but mediocrity and clutter are the chief destroyers of genius. The path of genius requires four elements: suitable soil, environment, freedom, and the right timing. Those who attain the celestial realms must be geniuses, for no one without exceptional spirituality and perseverance can reach the heights of cultivation.
