Today's youth has limitless, profound never ending energy, but the energy needs some direction to flow. If there is no direction, it is all confusion. Every man is in difficulty in so many ways. Out of so many human beings who are suffering; there are a few who are actually inquiring about their position. Most people can do extraordinary things if they have confidence or take the risks. Yet most people don't. Just information is not education. It is culturing one's behavior, culturing one's attitude and the ability to perceive things better. Traditionally the emphasis in education has been placed on academic achievement, yet the true measure of success in life is health, happiness, enthusiasm, well-being and the ability to deal effectively with life's challenges. It's spirituality that is making the youngsters beam and helping them find happiness and contentment besides bringing balance to their lives. Many youngsters are going the spiritual way to develop a positive attitude in life; besides spirituality also helps become better human beings.Thus, the present paper aims to explore the relationship between the spiritual intelligence and psychological well-being among the college going students (50 females and 50 males) different colleges of the Jaipur district of Rajasthan. They were administered Spiritual intelligence scale developed by Hingar, Mathur and Bharadwaj (2008). Subjective Well-Being Scale by Hingar, Mathur and Bharadwaj (2008).
