Spiritual intelligence is a capacity in humans to ask questions about the purpose of life and integrated relationship between mind, spirit and the outer world. To assess and compare the spiritual intelligence of youth from two different states of India, a study was conducted on 360 youth aged between 20-22 years. Dhar and Dhar (2010) Spiritual intelligence scale was used to assess the spiritual intelligence among youth. Result showed a significant difference where Punjab youth were found more benevolent, modest, compassionate and had higher overall spiritual intelligence than the youth of Uttarakhand, whereas, youth of Uttarakhand were found more optimistic than youth of Punjab with a significant difference. A significant positive correlation was found in spiritual intelligence and academic achievement.
