Join Dr. Eric Maisel as he presents noimetics, a brand-new philosophy that takes as its starting point the human experience of meaning.
Derived from noima, Greek for meaning, noimetics is an integrative philosophy that studies human subjectivity, human aims, human values—the range of human experience—and the part that meaning plays in our experience of life.
Although among the most important of human phenomena, meaning is also among the most difficult to “get a handle on.” This helps explain why it is so rarely studied. Students of noimetics—noimetists—are engaged in precisely this study.
Noimetists take as their field of inquiry meaning in its various aspects: meaning as a psychological experience, meaning as an idea, meaning as an evaluation, and meaning as a poignant human challenge. They examine questions like, “How much meaning does a human being require?”, “Is meaning overrated, underrated, or both?”, and “Does meaning trump value or does value trump meaning?”
You may think of yourself as an existentialist, a Buddhist, a Christian, an atheist, a humanist, a Jew, a postmodernist, spiritual, or some eclectic mixture of many themes, threads, and traditions. Noimetics takes its place among the many traditions and lays claim to a singular focus on the human experience of meaning. If this focus interests you, come learn more!
