One
thing that we all witness in our time is the knowledge boom. It is just incomprehensible
compared to two decades or earlier. It is a challenge for people who exist before
this time to cope up with so many areas where it demands high IQ (Intelligent quotient), EQ (Emotional Quotient) and most
importantly, TQ (Technology Quotient).
We explore the frontier of the information revolution: The Hybrid Age. The
Hybrid age is the transition period between the information Age and the moment
of singularity (When machines surpass human intelligence) the inventor Ray
Kurzweil, author of the Singularity is Near, estimates we may reach by 2040
(perhaps sooner)
Each of us are expected to better
adapt TQ to
a future in which robots are going to be the normal social actors in our lives,
healthcare becomes a vehicle for physical enhancement, academic descendants’
dissolves in a global skills market, and virtual currencies are expected to
enable tax-free transactions.
All the innovation and revolution if
you notice is not central to addressing human problems it is only creating more
and more panic and uncertainties of survival. Huge masses of people are thrown
out from all sectors, may it be IT field, banks or multi-national companies.
They don’t need you anymore. Why would they, when technology is able to replace
the work of big number of people. More and more people are becoming
incompatible for this period of time.
Having said all this, I want to introduce
SQ (Spiritual quotient) to you. Do you have an eye for the spiritual? When you
look at the world, do you see only space and time, mass and energy, logic and
reason? Or do you also see connectivity and design, purpose and meaning, faith
and mystery? Indeed,
in many ways, our Spiritual Quotient is shaping up to be more important than
even our Intelligence Quotient. Our devoutness to God appears to be a fairly
reliable interpreter of how well we’ll do, not just in school or the job
market, but in life as a whole, which ultimately is what matters most.

State University psychologist Robert Arkin states: “The cycle of materialistic pursuits is disappointing and
exhausting in the long run and can make people perpetually unhappy.” To
counter this most of us confine to spiritual disciplines and follow rituals by
worshiping money, prosperity, creation items as God. Think about it, and commit
yourself to a God who is worthy to sustain peace and cohesiveness.
