Spiritual Intelligence Education brings spirituality up to date, by providing access to spiritual intelligence in contemporary secular terms. The empirical methodology of SQ access enables spiritual intelligence to be experienced directly, as an innate capability, without relying on religious faith. SQ thus supersedes the twin opposing beliefs at the foundation of mainstream consciousness, in the form of theism and materialism, and replaces them with the synthesis of theism and materialism, in the form of secular non-theistic spirituality. Consequently, SQ Education ultimately transforms mainstream collective consciousness by means of evolutionary change from within.

Beyond Doubt

The experience of spiritual intelligence verifies beyond doubt that soul qualities, such as peace and joy and love, are inherent at the subject-pole of attention, in association with every possible experience of the world. Therefore peace and joy and love are not arbitrary, subjective sentiments projected onto an indifferent universe, as the officially approved doctrine asserts, based on the materialist view of reality. On the contrary, soul qualities are inherent in every possible universe we could ever experience, representing what is always already the case, before and after anything whatsoever occurs, forevermore. Consequently, with the benefit of SQ, it's self-evident that peace and joy and love are fundamental properties of our very existence.

Beyond Fear

Spiritual intelligence therefore banishes a mountain of fear, replacing a feeling of separateness and alienation with the feeling of being at home in the universe. This transformation creates a cascade of beneficial effects, from reducing anxiety, to improving functioning, clarifying meaning and purpose, boosting personal fulfilment, improving relationships, stimulating compassion and contribution, resulting in tolerance and co-operation between people at the individual level, and between different groups in society, and between different cultures and nations. Consequently, spiritual intelligence is necessary and sufficient for individual and collective transformation.

New Millennium

Lack of SQ education is responsible for much personal suffering and aberration. Neglect of spiritual intelligence also undermines organisational productivity, and retards the development of world culture and politics in a progressive direction. SQ Education therefore has these three interwoven dimensions: individual, organisational, and collective. By helping individuals and organisations to thrive, SQ Education contributes to the necessary shift in collective consciousness, equal to the global challenges and opportunities of the new millennium.

Our Mission

Teachers of spiritual intelligence therefore carry a deep responsibility to this and future generations, as instruments of a profound paradigm shift, representing the next stage in the evolution of mainstream collective consciousness. Ultimately, beyond building a business and earning a living, our calling is to be instruments of renewal, for individuals, for organisations, and for the collective. It's a joyful responsibility we share. Together we can make a profound contribution.
