Jacob Needleman, Philosopher Interview by Bill Moyers Presented by Austin Robbs

Where Journalism and Philosophy Meet Bill MoyersJacob Needleman artsandlectures.sa.ucsb.edu

 Modern society thrives on wants, but misses out on what it needs  Human nature is two-fold, both physical and spiritual  We are not meant to live transitory lives, but to live in a state of “consciousness”  Philosophy helps us achieve a state of “conscious living,” the desired balance between our physical and spiritual natures What Does Jacob Needleman Believe?

 Our quest for financial prosperity must remain balanced between our physical and spiritual needs  We must remember that money, of itself, is meaningless – it is our lifelong learning and our relationships that give us true meaning  We should “consciously enjoy” our work, and not simply see it as a “means to more money” Is There a Business Application to Needleman’s Philosophy?

 We are dual-beings that need love, even more than we think we need money  The meaning of life is found in our individual growth, not merely in our pursuit of wealth  We become “conscious beings” when we live balanced lives, maintaining all things in the right perspective The Philosophical Nail in the Economic Coffin
