How does one see and describe where he is? Some see their context in a small and somewhat parochial way, other see their context in a large and more global way, while a few a sense of context as something more unlimited and invisible.
For all of us, regardless of how we ‘see’ it, context will always be ‘relationship’. But how do you view your relationships? Are people difficult or divisive, fun or infuriating? How do you cultivate and sustain your relationships at the deepest level, the spiritual level? Context is
relationship is life and how successful you are will depend on your level of spiritual intelligence.
5. How does it all work? – This is the question of law.
Deep within a person, the self/soul, there is an innate awareness of what is true. Truth is that which never changes, and from truth comes the laws of life, the moral rights and wrongs, and the principles upon which a balanced and harmonious life is created and sustained. Spiritual laws can never be broken, but we subconsciously attempt to break them due to our lack of spiritual intelligence. This generates personal stress and interpersonal division and conflict. What are these laws and how you align yourself to them is the ‘fabric’ of your spiritual intelligence.
6. Why am I here? – This is the question of purpose.
Realising and living our personal purpose creates one of the deepest dimensions of a meaningful life. It is therefore one of the deepest motivators for any human being. Each person has a unique purpose based on his unique combination of talents, skills and spiritual attributes. True purpose cannot be prescribed by others, it is something that is realised fine tuned and integrated into daily life.
7. What happens next? – This is the question of creativity.
As a conscious and aware being you are by definition ‘creative’. Creativity will always be a key aspect to your fundamental personal purpose and your common collective purpose. But create what, and where and why and when? Only when you realise for your self the answers to the previous six questions, and integrate these answers within your self, will you know what you are here to create, and what your role is in co-creating with others.
One already knows the answers to each of the above questions; however people are not easily accessible to one’s day-to-day awareness. People have been mentally obscured by the conditioned beliefs handed down by parents, education and society. The truths to which these question point are eternally contained within the self/soul. The gradual cultivation of spiritual intelligence is the process of uncovering and restoring these truths to your conscious awareness. There are essentially seven methods to allow this to happen internally.
CONCLUSION
The conclusion from whole of the project has been drawn and shown in the form of a comparison as below:
Without Spiritual Intelligence With Spiritual Intelligence • People lose their sense of
identity in things like, nationality, race, colour, position and then become fearful and/or angry when any of these false identities are threatened.
• People never lose their sense of self, their identity, in anything external and people know that race, gender, nationality, belief system etc are simply labels and not what ‘I Am’.
• People blame others when
things go wrong because they fear being seen as the one who might
be responsible as they fear losing their reputation or position and therefore the approval of others.
• People never blame others for anything and always accept responsibility for their part, their actions. They don’t have anything to lose as they realise they cannot own or possess anything. They don’t need the approval of others to feel OK about themselves
• People have become
dependent on their job and pay for their sense of
security.
• People are free of all
dependency as their sense of security comes from inside out and not outside in. Their sense of security is based on their abilities, strengths, talents and innate qualities as a human being i.e. what people can give, not on what others give them.
• People live to survive as people are still under the
• People live to serve others. They have realised that the
illusion that it’s survival of the fittest, that you have to look after number one, because it’s simply dog eat dog out there!
only way to expand their personal capacity to love is to give it, use it, in the service of others, and as they do, they are
strengthened in the process and paradoxically have greater value to others as a result.
• People are easily disturbed and feel personally
threatened by local and global change.
• People are never disturbed by the changing world
around them because that is what the world does.
• People still seek love and happiness from others and the world, and are therefore still experiencing
frequent disappointment (sadness and sorrow).
• People have realised that what they seek in the world (peace, love and
contentment) are already within them and can never be lost.
• People have a tendency to see work as a necessary evil, a place to go and get money to pay the bills and buy a few pleasures.
• People see work as a place of creativity, self expression and learning where money is a secondary reward or
return for what is given • People have the tendency to
see and treat people at work as objects to get the job done, reach the goal, and achieve the targets. The task often comes before the relationship.
• People see people at work as human beings with their own strengths, weaknesses, concerns, needs and wants. Relationships always come before the task
too seriously because
people believe business is a serious business, thereby living in fear.
lightly, as a game, an opportunity to play and create, thus inducing a greater degree of lightness is what
