Indeed it is. I saw a video the other day in which Eckhart Tolle was talking about Mensa tests and about how they're concerned with a narrow definition of intelligence (well, one aspect of it - problem-solving), and I think he's right. A year or two back the thought occurred to me that true intelligence is clarity of perception, or arises from clarity of perception (hence, for example, the importance of dispassion in Buddhism).
Oh, and I'll look into energy circulation, thanks for the suggestion
