Heal the world with love

Love is a feeling that has the power to heal the world and this is true. Many of you may think that the love is very tender feeling then how can it have so much of strength or power to heal the world? Many a times we don’t understand the fact that the power should not be connected to the big or bulky things. Power is not the physical aspect at all. Power is an ability that allows any person to change the crucial situation around them. 
           
When you decide to make this world a beautiful place, then there is only one option and that is spreading love! Love is strong and subtle. Feeling of love actually triggers secretion of happy hormones which in turn heal at cellular level. Whenever the power and hate were used to change the world, that time this world has suffered a lot and we have seen it. 
             We had rulers like Hitler, Mussolini, who tried to bind people using their physical power to gain some personal interests and the world had to face war like situations. On the other hand, this world has seen Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi who spent their lives for people and tried to touch people’s lives with love and empathy. In both the cases, people do remember all these people, but they remember for their cruelty and some others for their devotion and love.
            It is all in our hands that how do we want to be remembered all over our life and after our life. By giving love we give peace and harmony and by spreading hate we give fear and more hate to this world. The ball is in our court, we have to decide what we want to do with it. Make wise decisions and be remembered for good deeds. Spread love, positivity and empathy. Make the world a beautiful place by your presence. My favourite quote which is apt for this topic is, “No one should cry because of you, they should cry for you.”

Letter to the son


Dear son,

You entered our lives and everyone was very happy. By everyone I mean everyone who were not directly connected to our life. The reason was, I’d delivered a ‘baby boy’! That day I realized that I brought you into this world, where men are considered as superior ones. 
      My mind was shattered by the thoughts which crossed my path. That day I decided that I’d pen you a letter when you would start understanding the language and you would read it. I want to raise you as a human, not as a man, who is superior or who is not allowed to show his emotions!  
      As a mother I am happy and satisfied to enter into motherhood but it’s simply a pure joy of becoming a mother and not as a mother of baby boy. Following are some things which I want you to keep in mind, throughout your life.
  •  You are a human being!
  •  You are equally allowed to show your love, anger, sorrow as women are!
  •   No one has any right to tell you that you cannot cry like a girl!
  •   There is nothing in this world which is girlish or boyish!
  •    If you don’t know few things which girls do regarding household then you should learn that.
  •     Because that’s when you’d truly be independent.
  •     Don’t think that it is a taboo to discuss a few things with your loved ones who are women regarding their physical health.
  •      Eve-teasing is a thing which is very shameful and you should try to stop it.
  •      Judging anyone on the basis of what they wear and where they live is a cheap thing.
  •      Respect is the key of maintaining any relation and it is applicable to all.
  •      Follow your instincts and stay blessed!
Love!!!

Mom.

Keep your child rooted in the soil of culture

We live in the digital world, where our career is more important than anything in our life. We too want to be with our family whenever possible. Festivals give us this opportunity to be with our beloved ones. Festivals give us chance to relive the old days. We must accept this fact that we lived our childhood much better than our children. We had our grandparents and our extended family with us to teach us the rituals and make us understand our culture. 
            Festivals play an important role when it comes to understanding our traditions and culture. But do we really know the adverse effect of changing lifestyle and progressive mind-set on our next generation? They are going away from their roots. Our life should be like trees, rather we should live it like trees. 
            No matter how much our branches grow in various directions but we should be rooted deep down in the soil because that is the place where we belong.
In nurturing children, we should make sure that we are giving them the gift of values and ethics. We are teaching them to be more modern but we should give them the sense of being more cultured. We cannot make them sit and tell them the meaning behind every festival, and each tradition but we can make them see the rituals we follow through our behavior. 
            As a parent, it is our responsibility to raise the cultured and mannered citizen of our country, after all they are the future of our country. Make sure that you do the things daily at home which will impact their mind and soul ( It could be reciting shubham karoti, ram raksha, or lightening of diyas, celebrating each and every festival by following the right rituals) so they will be able to follow your footprints in the journey of their life.

Keep the newness alive in you

 It is said that, “every new year brings happiness and newness in our life”. But is it really so? Do we really need ‘new year’ to welcome the newness and happiness in our life? It is an important part I know but if we think deeply, we come to know that each and every second of our life is new. Newness is a state of mindfulness. Actually, constant change is the characteristic of nature.We can make most of it and we can live our life to the fullest. But what could we do for that? Let’s pledge this new year, that we will stop complaining about the things that harm us. 
We would rather accept the fact of life that there will be ups as well as downs. As we accept the ups with happiness, we would accept the downs also. After all our life is a roller coaster ride. I have read it somewhere that, “Life is like an ECG diagram, if it goes smoothly you are dead”.
Above things we will understand when we accept the fact that life can’t be smooth always. Change is the spice of life. We need to work towards accepting things and people around us because that’s what the life is all about. Life is not at all boring if we try to find something new out of every situation we face. 
Life is a great teacher who has the tremendous power to teach you the purpose behind your existence. You just need to be her consistent student. Let’s decide together, that we would welcome each and every new second of our life with full of acceptance and happiness. We would not complain about anything in life and we would try our best to touch other’s lives with love to make their world beautiful. 
We would try together to make the world a beautiful place for everyone with our small but genuine efforts. Happy and blessed new year to all.

Perfect parenting is a task but positive parenting can be done!

Many of you are proud parents and doing great job as a parent. Each and every time you may be thinking that how should I improve myself as a parent to keep my child happy? You must be buying new clothes and toys for your child to make him or her happy. But does it really work as much as you thought it would? Sometimes the answer is no. Then you must be thinking that what is the key to be satisfied as a parent and to make your child more happy? Then don’t worry, we have an answer! And that is so simple.
Every parent wants to be a perfect parent for their child. Perfect parenting is a task but positive parenting can be done. To make your child happy, you need not to be the perfect one. Because your child doesn’t understand the “perfection”. He or she just sees the magic in you, which is called happiness. 
Child understands the language of happiness and nothing else. When you smile by looking at your child, he or she starts believing that the world is full of happiness. Your child doesn’t need anything else because his or her world revolves around you only.
It’s in your hands to create positive vibes, happiness and love around your child. Be prepared for that as this is gonna be very interesting journey and you should be content to have this opportunity to enjoy your responsibility to raise a happy child to survive in this world.

Inter-linking between Intelligence and Intentions

Intentions are transmitted through Intellectual actions. Even the results of any intellectual actions are seen as per intentions only. 

There are gross intentions which are known as goals or visions and these are clearly known to the person himself as well as those can be shared with others too. But there are very subtle intentions too, which are more powerful but may or may not be realised by the person himself, and so those are obviously not known to others. 


But since these intentions play a vital role in deciding end results of any intellectual project, one must be aware of own visions and intentions. Let's understand this phenomena practically. An entrepreneur forms his own company. What are his visions? To become independent, to earn money and fame, to prove himself etc. But sometimes companies are formed just to invest money and to make more profit. Also few companies state their vision as to serve people or to open job opportunities. Now such visions may or may not be like Teeth of an elephant! But then intellectual projects of such companies carry a great responsibility of success, in terms of economy and stability. How intensely and intellectually this entrepreneur runs his company really depends on subtle intentions of survival ability, then stability and then success!! 

Thus visions and long sightedness are results of gross intentions and subtle intentions. Indian philosophy states very powerfully about Intentions as "Shuddh Satvik Hetu",( Pure Intentions) always lead to short term as well as long term success and complete satisfaction. 

So be It!! And All the best to my intellectual readers for Best Intentions

Virtues Enhances Intelligence Quotient

Virtues means behavior showing high moral standards. And it is synonymous with goodness, integrity , honesty, purity, charity etc. When person is thinking and behaving on basis of above virtues, then it is proved that his intelligence quotient can enhance itself up to it's upper limit. 

According to Indian philosophy also, it is stated that when actions of a person are based on virtues, Tatv Praman , then his intelligence( buddhi) can reach it's  optimum , at Gross (sthul) and Subtle (sukshm) levels. May be here we must seek vice a versa constitution of use of intelligence. 

If someone is adapting vices i.e. immoral or wrong behavior then there is always association with negative emotions as anger, jealousy, egotism etc then under such influences , this person's intelligence may seem at high IQ status but can never obtain optimum level. So much of thinking power or energy is consumed over negative emotions and thus such person can't achieve subtle and greater levels of IQ. It also hampers intellectual growth of person itself, his near associated family and , company, society too faces no growth scenario after a while. 

Immediate effects of intelligent person based on vices may appear to achieve some gains at level of money, fame etc levels but long term benefits of prosperity, health, and peace are never acquired. So it's our wise choice to adopt virtues and enhance our IQ for short term as well as long term whole benefits, may be it will require more efforts and more patience at initial phase but prosperity and optimum IQ with satisfaction is guaranteed.

Be Aware, Be Intelligenence fit


Food habits, state of mind does influence our intelligence. One should be aware of this knowledge and also self analysis at present situation. Awareness it self is knowledge and intelligence. 

Let's discuss some such daily situations; in morning hours I was working quite hard and work was primarily lot of thinking; so my brain consumed oxygen and sugar in same proportion. My intelligence at this level is relatively dulled and needs pampering. If the food available is what I like then such food not only provides nutrition and calories to my brain but it supplies joy by stimulating my satiety centre thus providing add on energy to brain , this is subtle energy but it's very powerful too.

So my intelligence illuminates with more perception power and more expression power! Mind one thing here, your favourite food must not be fast food but wholesome meal is important. Once in a while fast food does provide this magical effect, but not always. Otherwise, make balance meal as your  favourite food; since mind can be trained, one can inculcate such positivity. 

Now let's talk about mind sate and it's relation with intelligence. When I am doing (working on) my favourite project, then I am more focused, my creativity is at it's optimum best, my perception and acceptance is wider and more importantly I can do more qualitative and quantitative work at less physical and mental energy consumption so my total energy is conserved. Sometimes I gain more energy in such favorable situations. Say , when you can complete your project in time with maximum accuracy then you feel satisfied and feel more energetic. This is subtle fact that satisfaction does restores energy pool. In such intellectual phases, Indian Philosophy states that your Mann and Buddhi are in harmony with Cosmic Thinking Bank and Universal Power Store so this link provides you new ideas, more vitality , more enthusiasm and glimpses of wisdom. The secret here is Your Creativity links you with Power of the Creator itself! Of course, it's your choice to  believe and accept this Fact or not. I leave it you . But experiences and theories have proved one thing that if your profession is according to your nature( Swabhav) , likings  capacity then you can earn name, fame, success, money and Bonus Mental Peace and Physical Health.  

Else just try to blend your mind in liking the field, you are working in, now. Though it generates friction initially, mind can be trained with self confidence and expert guidance. But mind it, that favourable mind state helps easy and powerful flow of creativity, and lead to personal as well as cosmic benefits.

Happiness enhances Intelligence Quotient

Happy and pleasant state helps in total equilibrium of body and mind. In such state even Endorphins come into action and refresh the neuronal structures, so such person can achieve the near most state of Intelligence expression. Exactly apposite to this is state of sadness and anger, where neuro-chemical secretion either makes the neuronal functions dull or throws it in chaos. Then even the person with higher intelligence expresses weird results. 

Indian Philosophy states the optimum Intelligence Quotient as, the IQ which serves the intellectual purpose at it's highest level, which in tern beneficial at personal level as well as universal level. Even those intellectual inventions which are serving us{humans) but are harmful to Nature are not supposed to be optimum intelligent expressions. Likewise happiness, balanced state of mind and satisfaction are pre requisite of optimum IQ and are by products of same too. But talking about  day to day routine situations even pretension of happiness, fake smile on face at least work at superficial level and serve the purpose of at least bit improvement in IQ. 

So sometimes it is said by the Wise People that" at least pretend to be happy and force a smile on your face, rather than playing with blues and anger and jealousy. Because comparatively it is useful to you and others too. "

Refine Your Aptitude


There is always margin for more, say learn more, practice more, improve more, Be more optimistic etc. and this is important in process of refining the Aptitude. 

Out of 9 types of Aptitude, Intra-personal is the one to start with. Indian Philosophy quotes " pindi te Bramhandi" which explain " know your Self thoroughly and you can understand the Universe." 

In this journey of Self Analysis or Assessment, one has to be aware of one's 

1.Abilities, 
2.Emotions, 
3. Surrounding situational requirements 
4. Inherited qualities 
5.Acquired qualities. 

If jotting down above 5 points scale is bit difficult , then one should seek experts advise. Next step is , cultivate the practice of everyday planner which includes reading quality books, attending small group discussion based on line of planned profession, and very important is  the process of internship i.e. one must learn practically under supervision of experts in those respective fields. And then at the end of day, self analysis.
  
Lets elaborate more on the subject of internship, if someone is planning a carrier in administration field, then he must approach the same department, and work there just for understanding and experiential learning. In the process of medical field, internship is the vital period for practical knowledge. Even after planned internship, if one feels the need of more experience based learning for more refinement, then it's a valuable process and important decision for making one's Aptitude more strong, impressive and ultra refined.

Expression of Words Shows Your Emotional Intelligence


'Emotional Q' can be evaluated by tests. But our day to day conversation also helps in such evaluation. Everyone uses few special words most frequently, it may happen unknowingly, but these frequently used words are windows for emotional world within that person! 

How our brain process these words? From where they come? Mostly such words we percieve from listening to near and dear ones or reading. If one gets associated emotional experience linked with the word, then that particular word gets imprinted. Such imprinted words may have links of emotional bondings and/or strong acceptance in thoughts. 

Let's make it more pragmatic, if the college going lad is frequently nagged by parental suggestions, then his/her rebellion cum irritation can be seen in their frequently pronounced specific words as F*** off. Person with poetic mind, who is immersed in beauty of nature, also perceive beauty in world uses the word Beautiful.  

If we listen to Two successful and confident people conversation, they both use the special frequent words s " I think, I know." Person who is bit introvert can be heard saying "Hmmm" word frequently. Sophisticated and polite person's frequently used words are "May I" "please let me know",,"as per your convenience"etc.  Arrogance and over confidence usually can be heard with  abusive or hurting words for others. 

Now coming to crisp end of our subject, such frequently used special words surely shows EQ of a person but few may fake and pretend by using such words as covers, but experts can make out the truth behind pronounced words by judging the tone and vibrations of pronunciations.

Multiple Intelligence 9. Existential Intelligence

Sensitivity and capacity to tackle deep questions about human existence, such as, what is the meaning of life? Why do we die? How did we get here? etc. is known as Existential Intelligence. 

Every person think deeper, about Self existence, at least once in life time, but the One who persistently think and crave for Origin, develop this type of Intelligence. Commonly in teenage stage, go through, phase of such questionnaire, and here is the very important opportunity to inform them . Usually guidance must be done by older and wiser person. Since Existential Intelligence is the Core of all other intelligences, by developing this, we are watering the Roots. 

In all religions usually rituals are there, to initiate such learning. Existential Intelligence is the Spiritual journey. In Indian Philosophical literature, at the age of 7, this teaching is initiated by doing the ritual called as Maunj , and is done so by  Gayatri Mantra . Then the child is ready to go to Gurukul, to learn. Gradually narrating the traditional stories which explain the formation of our very Earth, Plant Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Evolution process in Human beings and the most important information about the God and Oneness of His Existence! 

Let the child, young one ask questions , parents should try to answer, but it's always advisable, that, the learned one must guide, to avoid misconception. Reading and group discussion amongst wise people can enhance this Existential Intelligence. 

The Ved, Upanishad, Geeta, the Holy Quran, the Holy Bible, the Granth Sahib, the PanchSheel of Tathagat Buddha, are the Enlighten Books, which lead to enhancement of Existential Intelligence. Aham Bramhasmi is the Soham practice to attend , Existential experience with the grace of Sadguru, and is known as highest of Existential Intelligence.

Multiple Intelligence 8. Naturalistic Intelligence

Ability to recognize and categories plants, animals and other objects in nature is known as Naturalistic Intelligence. 

Add on objective in this definition is, it deals with sensing patterns in and making connections to elements in nature. But Indian Philosophy defines this type of intelligence, completely and more precisely, as Nature's five elements are panch mahabhute and are worshipped. 

Also Nature is worshipped as Nisarg Devata. Gratitude and worship are two most powerful emotional and intellectual aspects of Naturalistic Intelligence. 

So only flora and fauna categorisation is not the Natural Intelligence but, to love, care and conserve the Nature is the Natural Intelligence. When we watch National Geography channel then the whole  team who capture the beauty of nature have higher naturalistic intelligence. Botanical scientists , zoological scientists are at higher levels of naturalistic intelligence. 

Even the civil engineer who builds the structure which is nature friendly or he plants the sapling after construction is done. Person who loves pets have moderate naturalistic intelligence but those who sympathies and empathise with plants , animals birds, fishes is much more intelligent. 

Have you seen Plant hugging, as therapy? Yes it helps for physical and emotional detoxification, but it needs naturalistic intelligence. Those social workers, government members who act in preservation of  forests, planting at hill slopes are very respected naturalistic intelligent people. This type of Intelligence actually empowers the person from Within. Be Naturalistic intelligent and experience for your self.

Multiple Intelligence 7. Intrapersonal Intelligence

Capacity to be self aware and in tune with inner feelings, values, beliefs and thinking processes, is known as Intra personal intelligence. 

This intelligence is core of personality. The person who is aware of Self, can empathise with others. In other words, all high intra personal intelligence persons can become high interpersonal intelligent people by choice. For true success and satisfaction in life,  one must have high Intra personal intelligence. 

This type of intelligence doesn't differentiate between  superiority complex and inferiority complex. High interpersonal intelligence can be seen in academicians, researchers, literati, (poets, novelists), entrepreneurs , visionaries etc. 


Why and how, there is low Intra personal intelligence? Let's take one example, in group discussion, if the person is not firm on his own beliefs and values then usually such persons  may talk aggressively but wise can see, hollow base of speech. Such persons are not reliable. On the contrary, the self aware person is confident and clear about planning strategies and thus is reliable. 

According to Indian Philosophy this type of intelligence is of two levels, sthul (gross) and sukshm (subtle). At gross levels our inner feelings are also gross e.g. likes, dislikes and emotions . Values and beliefs at gross level are usually based on our surroundings (family, society) and upbringing state. And thinking process at gross level is result of memories, learning, experiential understanding , reading etc. While subtle Intra personal intelligence  all factors are directly related to inborn talents, spiritual orientation and guidance by Sadguru. This type of intelligence is interconnected to next type, existential intelligence.

Multiple Intelligence 6. Interpersonal Intelligence

Capacity to detect and respond appropriately ,to the moods, motivations and desires of other is defined as Interpersonal Intelligence. 

This is not only essential in working sections but it's very needed in day to day life. Family bonding, friend circle, social relation ships are based on this intelligence. 

This capacity in Indian Philosophy is known as MannKavade . Mann and Buddhi are two aspects of Thinking Source, and above mentioned things as desires, likings, moods are related to Mann.



 For this type of intelligence  one has to be empathetic with others, and then accordingly behave , to nurture the good relation. This intelligence doesn't claim to make others always happy or pampering but it respect others point of view, understand it and then takes the decision in well fare of all. 

Thus high interpersonal intelligence is the quality of Leader. Leadership in any field say from class monitor to social representative, group leader in industry or political leader. Human Resource Department members need such type of intelligence as basic criteria of duty. Interpersonal intelligence excels in fields like social media, entertainment media, spying fields, Interpol carriers etc. 

Such interpersonal intelligence can be viewed in those persons who are  truly popular amongst people, successful counsellors, and cream sections of white collar jobs. At basic levels, all our family members like Aajji, Nani, Mausi are the high intelligence persons who have acquired interpersonal intelligence by experiences of life and love towards family. They are better than professional counsellor since along with intelligence , love and care and sincerity is at higher level. 

This type of intelligence is highest in spiritual personality, since they think and act for welfare of others at absolutely selfless basis. They are the best leaders too, as they leads mankind towards Ultimate Bliss.

Multiple Intelligence 5. Musical Intelligence

Ability to produce and appreciate rhythm, pitch, and timber is known as Musical Intelligence. This intelligence is integral part of our personality. 

In the womb, mothers heart beats rhythm is the first perception. Songs by mother for her child is most developed musical intelligence ,since it comes through heart and is perceived by other heart. 

And still higher to this , musical intelligence can be seen in devotees who forget themselves in praising their God. Bhajans, Aarati, Sufi songs, songs at Church,  all types of prayers  and deeply spiritual oriented songs shows immense power of musical intelligence. 

Playing the musical instrument is next aspect of this intelligence. Understanding the pitch and timber and then reproducing them, is very skilful job. And it needs concentration, devotion and daily practice too. Few generations back, musical intelligence was mistaken for limited group of people and thus was not so popular in carrier selection . 

Art and business can not go hand in hand was the myth. But now a days, movies, TV and live shows have given the golden glow to musical intelligence. Since this intelligence is applicable to the artist as well as listeners equally, so along with back ground music direction, making advertisements , jingles, advising perfect pitch for famous speakers, DJ, radio jockeying etc. these are very attractive carriers amongst us. 

Thus now a days musical intelligence not only provide the emotional and psychological joy but it is economically promising too. This intelligence helps us to enjoy our self as well as to express too. Be with Music, Be with your Self.

Multiple Intelligence 4. Kinesthetic Intelligence

Bodily or Kinesthetic Intelligence is defined as an ability to control one's body movements and to handle objects skilfully. This intelligence is needed in association with all other types for performance. 

Perception by skin is very important, it has emotional intelligence too. Baby's primary perceptions are through mother's touch. This bodily intelligence develop with experience. Have you seen , how the toddler climb steps? He takes judgement of hight with Kinesthetic intelligence. 

To develop this intelligence, we always ask parents to take child into nature,like park, where child can touch and feel soft fur of dog, roughness of rock, touch of leaf this helps a lot in improving Kinesthetic intelligence.


Next aspect of this intelligence is seen highly developed in classical dancers. Bharatnatyam, Katthak, Bale, traditional rain dancing are best exercises to improve Kinesthetic intelligence. Very beautiful control on bodily movements at even subtle levels can be seen in expert dancers. 

Next feature of skilfully handling of objects can be improved with art and crafting. This is so necessary in all types of workshops. While doing surgeries, operating computers, designing models, robotics etc and so many modalities need Kinesthetic intelligence.

Kinesthetic intelligence is the beautiful link between art and science, and is necessary for performance.

Multiple Intelligence 3. Logical/Mathematical Intelligence

This is defined as, ability to think conceptually and abstractly, and capacity to discern logical and numerical patterns. Mathematics is geometry and algebra, theoretical and numerical. Most important basic fact is, Mathematics is the Mother of All the science factors. 

So this Logical intelligence is considered as integral intelligence of personality. Mathematical intelligence need not be studied in schools only, this statement may appear weird but it's commonly seen that vegetable merchants do calculation of 1 dozen banana, 2 kg potato, 1 kg onion faster than us and that too without calculator. 

Logical means mathematical, it explain further one important thing, that any theory to be proved needs mathematical model. Thus this logical intelligence is the link between imaginations, virtual thinking and reality, proof, experience. 

To enhance this intelligence, one need to learn mathematics in traditional ways and/or education and then practice it in daily routine. Application of mathematical intelligence frequently in daily buying helps a lot. 

Vedic mathematics is the best way to improve logical intelligence. Indian Philosophy states Vedic Ganeet as base of Shastra. Let me share one fact, Sanskrit language and mathematics are interlinked, even updated computers accept Sanskrit language as priority. If you remember, in our generation our grandparents taught us Sanskrit mantra, 

Bhagavad Geeta Aadhyay, RamRaksha, every evening along with recitation tables (Padhe). Chanting and recitation helps to improve Smruti,( deep memory) an important factor for logical and abstract thinking. Numerical patterns must be learned with writing, drawing and then application. Thus in brief, logical, mathematical intelligence improvisation needs, learning, understanding, regular practice and application. Please, help yourself and your kids to fall in love with mathematics, it is really wonderful

Multiple Intelligence. 2. Spatial/Visual Intelligence

Spatial or Visual Intelligence is capacity to think in images and to visualise accurately and abstractly. This intelligence is usually seen in expertise of civil, architecture engineering, interior designers, surgeons, fashion designers, mechanical engineering, aeronautical engineering, pilots etc.  

In such situations abstract measurement of space and dimensions along with logical imaginations is combined. Imagine the intelligence of civil engineer who is drawing blue print for his construction site, sitting in his office. 


Understand how genius is the surgeon's spatial intelligence who operates on various patients having different sizes, shapes and age. With his anatomical study, doctor has to do abstract imaginations to locate organ e.g. appendix( part of intestine) and avoid injury to artery or nerve. Best surgeons do very clean operation since their spatial intelligence is very high. 

Thus this intelligence is mainly related to judgement of dimensions length, breadth, hight, distance. Also this intelligence includes discrimination between two shapes, structures, or objects. Aesthetic sense and creativity is also integral part of spatial intelligence. 

May I say here, the  beholder of spatial intelligence is the person who has tremendous power of judgement which can bring logical imaginations in Reality in the Forms.

Multiple Intelligence - Verbal Intelligence

Let's know about all 9 intelligence factors of multiple intelligence. This is Howard Gardner's theory of Multiple Intelligence (MI). But here we are also understanding Indian Philosophical views. The first and foremost being, Verbal or Linguistic intelligence(VI). It is defined as well developed verbal skills and Sensitivity to the sounds meanings and rhythms of words.  

VI is essential in Aptitude tests. Verbal skills development needs regular practice of expressing yourself, in group. To enhance this skill we usually ask for family get together sessions. At family level, if there is need of some decision making then parents must ask their pupil to speak  their views and thoughts. This helps primary development of verbal skill. Confidence and well to put words are important factors in VI. 

At school and college levels, group studies must include group discussion, this furthermore adds in skill and confidence. Small speeches at  school also add on VI. 

Now we know about how to improve verbal  skill , so let's understand next level of VI. Sensitivity to the sounds meanings is relatively more subtle and needs more emotional intelligence. Your pronunciation of sentence and your  sound conveys your meanings at superficial and deep levels. Meanings can be perceived  in two ways with way of pronounced words and sound of words. So one has to be very careful about," how I Sound". Rhythms of words are again more subtle factor of VI. Sound and Rhythm actually makes verbal skill properly aesthetic and impressive. With this one can make sound positive impact with Verbal power. 

With lack of these skills, though you may be intelligent, it may or may not be perceived by others. Indian Philosophy states very importantly here, that, your good intentions, and your good nature, purity of one's heart , naturally comes in your Total Verbal Intelligence. So be It.
