What is this path to energized living?
The Five Vital Intelligences or IQs—physical, emotional, mental, moral, and spiritual—are layers nested one within the other. Each of them is a layer of consciousness, a filed of quantum energy, a capacity for growth, and often-unrealized potential.
We know these intelligences by their noticeable quality of energy: we can feel
o Physically charged,
o Emotionally thrilled,
o Mentally crisp,
o Morally engaged,
o Spiritually vital.
Our energy at each level of intelligence is our marker and our measure of how we are fulfilling the potential of that layer. Are we living into the full promise of that IQ or are we running on fumes in that area of our lives?
Imagine a star, the five separate points extending from the
hub. The center of the star’s energy is unaffected by the individual points, much like the stillness of God’s blessing in the center of the dervish’s whirling body.
Never the less, the star points—while connected to the center—are separate, each emanating a bit differently from the other four.
Similarly, the five vital intelligences each have their own vibration or frequency, each has its own techniques for success. Taken together, these five levels create an eternal, constant center: what the Asian mystics and quantum physicists call “the pure stillness of being” or the “stillness within all movement.” Such a core is the beginning and the end, the doorway to pure energy of life and the sum total of our lives’ efforts.
