Some Europeans show off their lack of having a wisdom tooth. It means that genetic mutations have been made over decades and centuries since they believe that there is no use in having wisdom tooth other than pain. Therefore, they have no wisdom tooth and their jaw has become smaller. Then, they consider this as an advancement and really pride themselves. Again, I emphasize the fact that some of them are like this and not all of them.

Basically, mutations and advancements have two sides. They both make us feel good and can have a bad side. “Bad” here means that people are filled with the sense of pride some much that being a human being does not satisfy them anymore and they have more demands. Therefore, our ancestors would say that “if the cat had wings, shed choke all the birds in the air”, but the angels understood the nature of humans and got scared of the science and will provided by God and therefore they prostrated, except for the devil. Therefore, the man’s position is a virtue and superiority itself and does not require priding ourselves over having or not having wisdom tooth.

Nevertheless, the sense of competitiveness cannot be separated from us. We all love to make advancement. This is not just a sense of eagerness but rather it is rooted in our souls. “To God we belong and to Him we shall return”. Now this returning and growing can be with the help of others or by stepping on the head and neck of the poor. Our nation and nationality has had many signs of eagerness to develop and help others to make advancement in the history. While the golden era of science is an honor for all Muslims, Iranians have always been the best students of this school and no one can doubt that.

Some time ago in meeting with young elites and top scientific talents of the country, our Supreme Leader expressed some important notes, lack of attention to which would have adverse effects in this regard. “Elites are divine blessings and we must thank this blessing. I deeply believe in training elites and the authorities must believe that these elites can change the destiny of our country.” Isn’t it true that a number of our elites are affecting and even changing the destiny of another country in the world? Why not! Our elites inside the country or those who have returned to Iran after a while are so powerful and determined that the world envies us for having them. We have so many official and non-official elites that goes beyond our needs. Nevertheless, as the wise elderly has expressed, “believing” in having these individuals, “believing” in their abilities, “believing” in their effectiveness and “believing” in their gaining of authority is essential. Their motivation is acceleration of their job.

Real elites can be recognized by their lack of need for “copy”. In addition, actual elites know their worth. They constantly remind themselves that the spirit of God has been blown inside their bodies. Therefore, they continuously search for creating and building something. They are empowered by building a place, and they condemn montage. Isn’t it true that the superpowers of the industry of the world use the experiences of our ancestors and the presence and intelligence of our current elites? Scientific acceleration and technological mutations will guide our science and technology toward reality by believing in the elites.

Meanwhile, “piety” of elites will eliminate any problem or barrier. There will always be problems and shortcomings. However, patience and virtue can destroy these barriers similar to what raindrops do to granite. Each step of elites brings thousands of blessings. We just need to be patient until the harvest season. Therefore, “believing in elites” must be performed from two sides, from officials and on the part of the elites. The duty of the authorities is clear and elites must have faith in themselves and importance of their presence so that things would be carried out more easily.

We are proud to have wisdom tooth, similar to taking pride in and appreciating anything offered to us by the holy divine. The current condition and orientation of the country, which has paid special attention to knowledge-based economy and economy of resistance during the past years, is the best opportunity for our youth to increase faith and scientific efforts to make progress and eliminate the errors. Similar to our Supreme Leader, we are sure that “the youth of Iran will create a much more efficient, advanced and organized country in the future”, God willing.
