Abstract : Spiritual intelligence is essential for achieving oneness. It provides purpose and direction leading to a sense of identity in the minds of people. An attempt was made to explore the influence of spiritual intelligence on personality among college students. 136 students from Salem city were selected through simple random sampling. The data was collected with spiritual intelligence inventory by King (2008) and their personality was assessed using NEO-Big five personality locator by McCrae and Costa (1992). Results revealed that students do not differ in their spiritual intelligence on the basis of gender. In critical existential thinking and transcendental awareness students differ significantly on the basis of religion. Regression analysis indicated that conscious state expansion of spiritual intelligence had significant influence on personality factors. The implications are discussed in this article.
