Slide 7:

Spiritual intelligence (SI) is that intelligence which is required when a person begin to open up to his spirit’s journey and to quest for a greater perceptive of life. It develops a sense of self that is not the result of ideas and experience. It is beyond character, it is the natural genius of living that everyone is heir to.
