The Essential Experience

3Q Essentials Course

When you activate a higher dimension of intelligence, you gain access to the qualities and capabilities of your higher self. You can use the method taught in this online course to shift from ego to soul and activate your spiritual intelligence. This enables you to live your best life – to think better, feel better, relate better, and perform better.

Liberating Experience

The experience of spiritual intelligence is liberating because your sense of self is no longer based on your thoughts, emotions, and reactions. Instead your sense of self is based on your presence, with its spacious and open-hearted feeling, free from the limits of the conditioned thought process, and free from the survival fear of the ego.

Secular Methodology

Spiritual intelligence is a practice and a philosophy that enriches your life, enhances a wide range of life skills and work skills, improves academic performance, builds better organisations and ultimately creates a more just and caring world. The 3Q Essentials online course teaches how to use a simple secular method to activate your spiritual intelligence and incorporate it in your daily life.

Why This Course?

You have probably read about other courses that offer benefits similar to the benefits described here. So why should you choose this course? The reason is that this course offers the fastest and most effective method to find lasting satisfaction using a secular science-based approach. This course is based on findings in psychology and neuroscience, corroborated by the discoveries of spiritual traditions. One of the reasons this approach is so powerful is that it identifies the human operating system.

Human Operating System

The twin poles of attention represent the human operating system, with the ego at the object-pole, and the true self, the soul, or consciousness itself, at the subject-pole. Shifting from the object-pole to the subject-pole creates a corresponding shift from ego to soul, which activates the spiritual dimension of intelligence.

The Difference between Mindfulness and Spiritual Intelligence

Mindfulness and spiritual intelligence have much in common, but there are also significant differences. Mindfulness is the practice of simply observing your experience without judgement, which results in a sense of calm and composure. By contrast, spiritual intelligence is the practice of shifting from ego to the higher self in the context of all experience. This difference results in three main distinctions between Mindfulness and spiritual intelligence, which can be summarised under the headings of Ethics, Meaning and Purpose, and Existential Issues.

1. Ethics

Unlike spiritual intelligence, Mindfulness has no ethical dimension. Mindfulness simply instructs us to pay attention to what we are aware of without judgement. While abiding by this instruction, you can mindfully lie, cheat, and steal. There are no ethical implications of simply being aware of experience without judgement. In the original Buddhist context in which Mindfulness was taught it was accompanied by an admonition to live a right life, made up of right understanding, right intention, and right action, which involves inherently ethical demands. But in the western context in which Mindfulness is taught as a standalone discipline, the demand to live a right life is absent. By contrast, spiritual intelligence is inherently ethical because the experience of SQ is grounded in love and compassion, which are the foundation and guarantee of ethical conduct.

2. Meaning and Purpose

If you already have clarity on the meaning and purpose of your life, then Mindfulness can serve to remind you. But unlike spiritual intelligence, the practice of Mindfulness does not discover deeper meaning and purpose. Whereas spiritual intelligence discovers deeper meaning and purpose by virtue of shifting from the ego to the higher self.

3. Existential Issues

Unlike spiritual intelligence, Mindfulness does not address existential issues, such as the vitally important question of “Who am I?” This is because Mindfulness merely attends to the objects of consciousness, whereas spiritual intelligence attends to consciousness itself. In fact, spiritual intelligence is about being consciousness itself, regardless of the objects of consciousness. This focus on being consciousness itself reveals all the answers to existential questions. A deeper sense of meaning and purpose actually depends on answers to such existential questions.

For the above reasons, spiritual intelligence is more comprehensive than Mindfulness, because SQ includes and exceeds the benefits of Mindfulness.

Why is Spiritual Awakening Regarded as Difficult?

Now we know that spiritual awakening is easy, but historically spiritual awakening was regarded as difficult. That’s because until recently people didn’t know about the human operating system (hOS) and they didn’t know how to navigate the hOS with ease and precision. But now we do know! Recent advances in psychology and neuroscience have identified the basic operating system of human awareness, and discovered a simple way to unlock the spiritual dimension of intelligence for instant spiritual realisation.
