Spiritual Quotient preponderates over all the remaining intelligence quotients of the human mind.

The world is a hopeless place to thrive in.We are all running to achieve our vision,life values and overall, trying to unravel the meaning of life. Spiritual intelligence increases our innate capability to become aware and conscious of our surroundings using our sensory processes. A normal human being is said to possess 5 basic senses: touch,sight,hearing,smell and taste. however,at a spiritual level,a human being elevates the function of these 5 stated senses to a higher self level. It is said that,there is a universal power that creates and governs everything within and beyond worlds we know,and the power in omnipresent.

The increase in spiritual intelligence quietens the mind,which is ego driven by power,status and money.The SQ heightens cognitive and emotional skill capabilities and way beyond. There are 5 dimensions of spiritual intelligence namely:

#1 Consciousness: Being aware of one's surroundings and others. Consciousness is a state where a person is fully present on what is taking place at that very moment.

#2 Transcendence: This dimension discusses about living beyond the ordinary range of perception which is above and independent of material realms.

#3 Grace: To engage in virtuous behavior towards others and self. This consists of interpersonal strengths,which are forgiveness, gratitude, humility and compassion.

#4 Meaning: The ability to utilize spiritual resources to solve problems in living life.

#5 Truth:The ability to enter into heightened states of spiritual consciousness.

Examining the above stated dimensions of spirituality to self is definitely not a pushover.It all starts at a grass root level of self-awareness and self mastery. A fabled quote by Murasaki Shikibu; a Japanese novelist and poet;"There is a lot more than what meets the eye" can be linked to the aspect of spiritual quotient which is an amalgamation of the mind,body and soul which is a completely intangible aspect of life. A mixture of attitude,beliefs,mindset and aptitude is what can gauge the level of spiritual intelligence.Branching this out further, a human being becomes spiritually aware due to his/her life experiences,early maturing that leads to control over emotions from an adolescent age.

As per Vish Chatterjee;an executive coach, speaker and author of "The Business Casual Yogi", who has been lauded by top level executives of Google and Sephora has a rational to spiritual quotient.
"SQ blends EQ elements such as control over feelings and recognition with self awareness and interpersonal energy". 

SQ is about dealing with senses,vibes and energies.An individual with a heightened SQ can have increased empathy;better relationship management and reach a deeper place of valuable creativity at their workplace and overall,in life. We all have a higher self,it is how we connect with it is what matters.

Taking the discussion further, SQ aids in mindful practices.We all need to find ways to recuperate ourselves which improves a huge deal of self-awareness in people. Since the past 3 years, I have been applying some mindful practices and i must say they have transformed to a great deal. Let me share a few tips:

#1 I have been journal-ling my thoughts. As a child, I have had the habit of writing and this habit has guided me to go a step further about penning down my thoughts,feelings and perceptions that inturn has made me improve on my rationality.

#2 I have started practicing self-talk. I do this on a regular basis where I talk to myself in certain situations, more or less in sticky situations;where I calm myself down. This aids me in gaining perspective of the truth of the matter and reduces my anxiety levels.

#3 I speak to the Universe. Since the past 3 years, I have been mindfully speaking to the Universe. So how do I do so? I set my intention regarding my goal and communicate to the Universe to guide me to achieve it in the rightful manner.

#4 I chant repeatedly certain statements. This helps me raise my vibrations.I would share my experience here. I was down with Covid in the month of January 2022. I had a 103 degree Fahrenheit temperature and my oxygen levels were dwindling between 96 and 97 SPO2. For 2 whole nights,the temperature remained constant. The doctor had advised that I would have had to be hospitalized,if I the temperature continued. I started chanting to the Universe, "I am healthy","My health is improving","I am feeling better". The very next morning my body temperature was normal.

I had the conviction and willingness to work through my illness with a positive mindset and the Universe supported me wholly by emitting back the positive energy I sent. Thus,when you have the staunch belief to achieve something, it manifests into reality.

Onto concluding my article,I would provide an end note by stating that SQ is the highest form of human intelligence as it is being in-tune with the intelligence of the Creator.
