Soul Meditation: A Vehicle for Developing Higher Intelligence

Soul meditation is the result of my awakening experience (described in the Introduction). Although I say I developed it, what really happened was a spontaneous creation. Here, I am conveying it to you in a structured manner that is the result of further reflection.

Soul meditation is like a spiritual vehicle with a four-wheel drive. The four wheels are analogous to the four intertwined practices of mindfulness, non-reaction, wise attention, and concentration that make up soul meditation. The practice of mindfulness develops present-moment-awareness and serves as a foundation for mental development (somewhat equivalent to IQ). The practice of non-reaction eliminates mental impurities, such as greed and hatred (equivalent to EQ plus the emergence of SQ). The practice of wise attention removes delusion, generates equanimity, and fuels understanding (equivalent to SQ plus the emergence of soul intelligence). When mindfulness, equanimity, and some degree of understanding are combined with higher levels of concentration, the mind is purified, sharpened, and perfected, ultimately leading to the awakening of soul intelligence. The stronger, the better tuned, and the better balanced the four wheels are the faster will be the development of higher intelligence. If you were to thoroughly investigate the depth and breadth of human suffering, you would come to realize that they are the direct manifestation of the lack of mindfulness, non-reaction, and wise attention. Because these elements are always present in soul meditation, it is a sure way to attain freedom from suffering.
