HOW TO DEVELOP SPIRITUAL INTELLIGENCE
Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.… HEB 6:1-2
The English word "spirit" comes from the Latin spiritus, meaning "breath". Spirit is both the breather and the breath, the underlying nonphysical substance of all life. Intelligence comes from the Latin, intellegentia. Intellegentia comes from: inter-"between" plus legere-"choose, pick out, read" inter-lege-nt-ia. It literally means "choosing between". Spiritual Intelligence means to choose between the ego and the Higher Self or Spirit at any given moment. That is, we choose to live, to behave and to speak from a higher perspective. Scripturally this means: “Not my will, but thy will”.
