Comparative Evaluation of Wisdom Intelligence with Spiritual Intelligence and Its Relationship with Education

Abstract

For the first time, Mulla Sadra presents a new type of intelligence called "Al-Hikma al-Ghriziyya" or Wisdom intelligence (WI). In terms of Wisdom intelligence level and its relationship with education, he proposes three general spectrums and states that only one spectrum needs education on theoretical reason and training in dimensions of behaviors, emotions, inclinations, and moods as the prerequisites for attaining wisdom. Given the patterns he introduces of the wise, he considers wisdom to be searched in all cultures and religions. On the one hand, Emmons pursues SI as the ability to enter higher spiritual states of consciousness, to solve problems for functioning well being and expands five-factor of spiritual intelligence and considers spirituality to be non-native, and this is the starting point of this analytical study for adaptive evaluation of spiritual intelligence and judgment intelligence and the ratio of the two. Findings: The concept of spiritual intelligence is more general than the concept of Wisdom intelligence, and the three-factor model of Emmons's SI is similar to the criteria of Wisdom intelligence; However, Mulla Sadra has a cognitive and philosophical approach to the issues of intelligence and is careful about the source and manner of achieving consciousness
