3Q Map of Attention

The 3Q Map of Attention is an application of the psychology of spiritual realisation, which identifies the basic operating system of human awareness, in the form of the twin poles of attention. The 3Q Map of Attention is therefore essential to navigate the pathway from ego to soul, which activates spiritual intelligence.

The SQ Portal

The SQ Portal is a rapid method of activating spiritual intelligence. Transit through the SQ Portal is accomplished in three steps, starting at the object-pole of attention and emerging at the subject-pole of attention. The first step starts from the state of ego within the thinking mind at the object-pole of attention. The second step dissolves the thinking mind in heart-feeling. In the third step of the SQ Portal you emerge at the subject-pole of attention, beyond the ego, as unmodified consciousness itself, otherwise known as the soul.

The 3Q Portal

The SQ Portal thus activates spiritual intelligence by proceeding step by step from IQ to EQ to SQ. Accordingly, this pathway is also called the 3Q Portal. The three steps of the Portal represent the fastest and most direct pathway from one pole of attention to the other. The resulting polar shift from ego to soul activates spiritual intelligence, thus replacing ego reactions with soul responses.

How to Experience Spiritual Intelligence

Spiritual intelligence is easy to experience. We all experience SQ spontaneously at times. But spontaneous moments of SQ are rare and unpredictable. Therefore it’s important to know how to experience SQ intentionally. When you can engage your spiritual intelligence voluntarily, at any time of your own choosing, SQ becomes your most powerful personal resource. This video provides step-by-step instructions on how to use the SQ portal to activate spiritual intelligence.

3Q Training

As a powerful combination of three principal dimensions of intelligence, 3Q represents IQ and EQ in association with SQ. Studies in neuroscience reveal that the experience of spiritual intelligence is correlated with hemispheric synchronisation and whole brain activation. The resulting whole-brain coherence optimises brain function and replaces the ego (the false self) with the soul (consciousness itself, the true self) by shifting from the object-pole of attention to the subject-pole of attention, which results in greater fulfilment, increased creativity, sharpened intuition, more empathy and compassion, and improved performance on a wide range of work skills and life skills. If you want to learn more, there is a Course on 3Q Training here.

The SQ paradigm is based on a synthesis combining the wisdom of ancient spiritual traditions with the findings of modern science, as summarised in this article here.

3Q Practitioner Training Course

Do you want to accelerate your own personal and spiritual growth, and teach others to do the same? The 3Q Practitioner Training Course trains and certifies Spiritual Intelligence Practitioners.

Spiritual Intelligence is a higher dimension of intelligence beyond the ego that has access to the advanced capabilities of the true self. This Course is based on secular spirituality not on religious beliefs. Consequently, the methodology used to activate spiritual intelligence is not founded on articles of faith but on experience and knowledge, backed by evidence from related fields of scientific research. Certified Practitioners are provided with the training materials to coach their clients in spiritual intelligence, and conduct workshops in spiritual intelligence for leaders and organisations, and for the general public.

As the intelligence of the true self beyond the ego, spiritual intelligence (SQ) has many benefits that exceed the scope of intellectual intelligence (IQ) and emotional intelligence (EQ). Spiritual intelligence relieves anxiety and depression and the extreme pain of meaninglessness and despair that is often associated with ego states of awareness. Freedom from ego, as experienced with SQ, grants wisdom and clarity of vision, combined with more empathy and compassion, which increases creativity and intuition, and results in greater personal fulfilment and better performance on important life skills and work skills. Spiritual intelligence therefore represents the most powerful resource for personal and professional growth and fulfilment.

Widespread adoption of spiritual intelligence as a personal code of conduct raises the standard of accountability in collective governance, in response to public demand. When standards in governments and corporations are based on spiritual intelligence, the energy of love will turn into a social and political force, as never before in history. Public training in spiritual intelligence therefore heralds a new era of human rights and social justice, which form the foundation for global cooperative community, shared prosperity, and world peace.

As a 3Q Practitioner you will be equipped to introduce spiritual intelligence in the context of contemporary secular culture, and contribute to the next stage in the evolution of collective consciousness. When a tipping point is reached, the emerging next stage of collective consciousness will result in global transformation, founded not on beliefs of any sort, or on government control, or on mass media narratives enforced by censorship of contrary views, but founded instead on the inherent qualities of consciousness itself, such as love, wisdom, and peace, which everyone can experience by activating their spiritual intelligence.

Interesting website and one which should be widely read in my view. Your level of detail is good and the clarity of writing is excellent. I have bookmarked it for you so that others will be able to see what you have to say.

Thank you for sharing my findings about spiritual intelligence. The principal finding of my research is the basic operating system of human awareness, which is the key to self-understanding, and represents the door to higher states of consciousness. I appreciate your help in sharing spiritual intelligence with a wider audience.

Have already been visiting your site for several days. Really like what you posted. Btw i’m doing a study about this issue. Do you know any other sites or online forums where I might find out more? Thanks a ton.

There are many other sites about spiritual intelligence, as I am sure you are aware from doing research on this topic. As a researcher on this subject, you must be familiar with many of these other sites. However, my findings about spiritual intelligence are published only on this site. Other sites on this subject are therefore without my findings about the basic operating system of human awareness, in the form of the twin poles of attention, which is the key to understanding and experiencing spiritual intelligence. So in answer to your question if you want to find out more, I recommend that you read the other articles on this site.

Nobody really cares about the particular method so long as it provides benefits and more importantly is easy to implement. When I think about it, for many the only real prerequisite is that it works.

Im typically scurrying around the net the majority of the day, hence I tend to read quite a lot, which unfortunately isn’t usually a good thing, as most web sites I see are composed of trash copied from other websites a zillion times. Nevertheless I gotta give you props. This blog is frankly readable and also has some genuinely original material. Therefore cheers for creating something new, as an alternative to the usual practice of just copying other peoples’ websites 🙂

Rain

Thank you so much for sharing important secrets from this brilliant web site. It is very
beneficial and jam-packed with unbelievable info.

The articles contain a lot of really up-to-date facts throughout. Where
do you come up with this? Just saying you are really inspiring. Thank
you

I might not have realised this was magnificent a couple of years back. It is surprising how age shifts the way you see creative ideas. Many
thanks for the blog post, it is really pleasing to read something smart
occasionally, in lieu of the trash presented in most blogs and forums on
the web.

Venice Halifax

Most what I read online is trash and copy paste but I think you offer something original and different. Bravo.

Sidney Presnall

This is a really quality post. Really what I needed. Thanks I have been looking for this sort of info for a long time.

Really what I needed. Thanks I’ve been searching for this sort of info for a long time. I’ve bookmarked your weblog to enable me to read more on the subject.

I wish getting over coronary heart disease was as easy as following a couple of steps.. however it’s not 🙁

You are right that spiritual intelligence is not an immediate remedy for a serious health issue like heart disease. But in terms of your happiness, which is more important? Is it more important to have a physically healthy heart or a peaceful heart? Of course, both are desirable. But which is more relevant to your happiness right now? Obviously a peaceful heart is more relevant. That’s the importance of spiritual intelligence. And perhaps a peaceful heart will assist in your physical recovery? There is much evidence that one’s emotional state greatly influences physical health. So it’s absolutely relevant to use your spiritual intelligence to aid your recovery.

Giselle Braukus

Actually like your website’s details! Undoubtedly an extraordinary supply of knowledge that’s extremely helpful. Carry on publishing articles, and I’m gonna use them for studying! Cheers.

Are you sure? I have heard other things about this topic. Would be great if you would elaborate for us.

I think we have all heard other things about this topic. The nature of spirituality is among the most highly contested subjects in the world. There are a multitude of different views about this subject. However it is worthy of note that these differences of opinion are based on different religious beliefs, all of which are unverifiable. This is where spiritual intelligence differs. Spiritual intelligence depends not on beliefs but on direct personal experience. Unlike religious beliefs, spiritual intelligence can be verified by anyone who uses the necessary methodology. This video provides instruction in a fast action method to experience spiritual intelligence. In answer to your question, I can confirm that I am sure about this information. However, if you use the method as explained in the above video, you won’t have to rely on my opinion. You will have the evidence based on your own experience to form your own opinion.

I have to admit that your site is really interesting. I have spent a lot of my free time reading your content. Thank you a lot!
