2. Spiritual IntelligenceSpiritual Intelligence
•The Spiritual Intelligence is the ultimate intelligence;
and the level of spiritual intelligence can also be
measured and expressed as Spiritual Quotient
SQ ( like IQ and EQ).
•This is the intelligence used to solve the problem of
meaning and value.
•We are essentially spiritual being trying to have human
experience by asking certain fundamental questions;
“ WHO AM I ? ”
“ WHERE AM I GOING ? ”
“WHAT DO OTHERS MEAN TO ME ? ”

3. EIGHT SIGNS OF HIGH SQ
1. Flexibility.
2. Self Awareness.
3. An ability to face and use sufferings.
4. The ability to be inspired by vision and values.
5. An ability to see connections between diverse things
(thinking holistically).
6. A desire and capacity to cause as little harm as possible.
7. A tendency to prove and ask fundamental questions.
8. An ability to work against convention.

4. BASICS OF SPIRITUALITY
Spiritual Intelligence motivates people to balance their work
schedules to spend time with the family (as spirituality demands
expression of higher values, feelings and emotions in everyday
life).
An executive with high SQ might look beyond profit margins
and devote time for voluntary work with orphans.
Spiritual Intelligence also addresses the need to perceive our
lives in a broader and larger perspective as all of us are one part
of the nature & all of us are Sons& Daughters of one Mother
Earth.
A very narrow and constricted view of our individual lives
denotes a very low level of SQ.

5. DISTINGUISHING SQ FROM IQ AND EQ
IQ primarily solves logical problems.
EQ allows us to judge the situation we are
in and behave appropriately.
SQ allows us to ask if we want to be in that
situation in the first place.
IQ and EQ is selfishness oriented and it
relates to ‘ I ’ only. But SQ is pure
intelligence without limitations imposed by
selfish interest.

You do not need to find a GURU to guide you. Know your path
and start your journey. GURU will find you. You can start your
journey simply going through the suggestions given in this
presentation.
The eagerness to move ahead in life along with proper tuning is
what one needs initially.

11. IMMEDIATE GAINS
BETTER APPRECIATION OF ONESELF.
A MIND WHICH DOES NOT BOTHER
UNNECESSARILY.
INCREASED LEVEL OF SATISFACTION etc .
A life without struggle is no life at all. Calm sea does not
make a good sailor. A brook will loose it’s song, if
obstructions are removed. Spiritual intelligence enables you
to confront your problems, obstructions, sufferings and
metamorphose them into the song of your life. You must
possess a very high level of SQ to know the song of your life
and play it as masterfully as you can.
