SQ, the new buzz word

Last Updated 24 July 2013, 17:36 IST

SQ is the new buzzword in the modern society that we live in today. However, many of us do not know that SQ (Spiritual Quotient) is the ultimate intelligence, that enables us to give value and meaning to our lives and helps us to look beyond material success at our larger purpose for which we are in this world.

In actual sense, it is the foundation of both Intelligence Quotient (IQ) and Emotional Quotient (EQ).

Since years it was assumed that the higher the IQ score, the greater the person's success in life. That’s why those people with high IQ levels got preferential treatment in academic institutions as well as in placements. However, after a few years, it was observed that even individuals with a high IQ could be miserable failures in life. These developments prompted experts all over the world to look for something better and higher than IQ that would contribute to the success and happiness in human lives.
This gave birth to emotional intelligence or EQ, which is said to give us empathy, compassion, motivation and the ability to respond skillfully to joy and pain using right aptitude and acumen of mind. But, over the past decade, as the pressures of modern life grew, experts realised that even EQ was inadequate to deal with the situations, individuals were facing in their professional and personal lives. As a result, experts derived a more higher and better skill called SQ i.e. the spiritual quotient.

With the discovery of SQ, experts all over the world acknowledged an eternal truth that our sages knew long ago, that all of life's dilemma are essentially deep-rooted issues and hence, they require certain spiritual orientation to reach out for a remedy easily. Hence, when we learn to recognise the roots of our problems by a higher level of awareness and enhancing leadership quality, we can find more holistic and rewarding solutions for them by using profound intelligence than mere IQ or an EQ. 

So enhance your SQ and start walking on the path to an ever happy and successful life attaining higher state of consciousness.
