00:00 Intelligence is not Intellect
54:01 Q&A Q1: Can the intellect also be a function of our vasanas? Are some people born with a stronger intellect than most others?
54:55 Q&A Q2: What does intelligence quotient (IQ) mean? As IQ measurement instruments stand today, are they measuring intelligence or intellect (as defined by Vedanta)? Is there any overlap of IQ and intellect?
56:07 Q&A Q3: Is there a semantic problem? Intelligence in the military sense is knowledge, but in the academic sense, it is the processing power of the student. Is intellect therefore a synonym for academic intelligence?
58:05 Q&A Q4: How do we train for emotional intelligence?
1:00:03 Q&A Q5: The intellect seems to have two roles. One is the ability to discern and discriminate. The other is to control the mind and ensure we act according to our obligation. It seems reflection can help with the first, but how can we work on the second?
