1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,170 In January 2011, the movie "ZEITGEIST: MOVING FORWARD" 2 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:06,730 was screened in cities all over the world; it is a non-profit documentary 3 00:00:06,870 --> 00:00:09,840 directed by Peter Joseph, also available online for free download. 4 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,100 In Italy, twenty cities participated in this global screening project. 5 00:00:13,250 --> 00:00:16,010 The Zeitgeist Movement chapter in Rome screened the movie 6 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,080 at the Azzurro Scipioni Cinema, owned by director Silvano Agosti. 7 00:00:19,220 --> 00:00:22,390 To our great surprise, Paolo Bonolis, presenter of "The Meaning of Life" 8 00:00:22,540 --> 00:00:26,180 a prime time TV program on Channel 5, also attended the screening. 9 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:30,220 Paolo and his co-author, Michele Afferrante, have shown great interest 10 00:00:30,370 --> 00:00:33,960 for the Movement's ideas and immediately welcomed a cultural exchange 11 00:00:34,150 --> 00:00:37,650 thereby starting a cooperation with the Zeitgeist Movement. 12 00:00:37,850 --> 00:00:41,900 They have been broadcasting a series of intellectually stimulating snippets 13 00:00:42,050 --> 00:00:44,780 throughout the season without soliciting any funding 14 00:00:44,940 --> 00:00:47,560 which is proof that even on a commercial TV channel 15 00:00:47,700 --> 00:00:51,010 there are people who don't regard monetary reward as their only target. 16 00:00:51,170 --> 00:00:54,190 We have collected those bits and put them together, showing the path 17 00:00:54,330 --> 00:00:57,100 that millions of Italians have followed for over two months. 18 00:00:57,260 --> 00:01:00,720 We thank Paolo, Michele and their staff for granting us this great opportunity 19 00:01:00,870 --> 00:01:04,370 and hope this effort will arouse curiosity and meditation in some of the viewers. 20 00:01:07,630 --> 00:01:09,820 Clip #1 21 00:01:10,290 --> 00:01:14,720 I would like to show you and have you listen to these words, please. 22 00:01:19,730 --> 00:01:23,150 Not to accept things as they are 23 00:01:25,210 --> 00:01:28,470 but to understand it, to go into it, to examine it. 24 00:01:28,630 --> 00:01:32,860 Give your heart and your mind with everything that you have to find out 25 00:01:33,010 --> 00:01:35,440 a way of living differently. 26 00:01:40,180 --> 00:01:43,950 But that depends on you and not somebody else. 27 00:01:45,290 --> 00:01:48,410 Because in this there is no teacher, no pupil. 28 00:01:49,210 --> 00:01:51,500 There's no leader. 29 00:01:51,660 --> 00:01:53,300 There's no guru. 30 00:01:53,450 --> 00:01:55,590 There's no master, no savior. 31 00:01:55,740 --> 00:01:58,110 You yourself are the teacher and the pupil. 32 00:01:58,260 --> 00:02:00,930 You're the master, you're the guru, you are the leader. 33 00:02:01,070 --> 00:02:03,190 You are everything! 34 00:02:03,970 --> 00:02:06,190 And 35 00:02:06,650 --> 00:02:08,410 to understand 36 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,760 is to transform what is. 37 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,930 The character that you have just seen and heard is Krishnamurti. 38 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,640 He is considered as one of the greatest thinkers of all time. 39 00:02:22,790 --> 00:02:25,660 He didn't theorize any philosophy or religion. 40 00:02:25,810 --> 00:02:29,620 Instead he spoke of things concerning all of us in our daily lives 41 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:34,760 in particular about the need for a radical change in human consciousness. 42 00:02:34,910 --> 00:02:38,690 The video clip is taken from the documentary movie "Zeitgeist" 43 00:02:38,830 --> 00:02:41,420 which means "the spirit of the time" by Peter Joseph. 44 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,870 It is a three chapter non-profit work 45 00:02:45,010 --> 00:02:49,070 which brings some of our certainties into question. 46 00:02:49,220 --> 00:02:53,190 It is a movie which tries to make us think in a different way 47 00:02:53,340 --> 00:02:55,930 out of the box and away from conventions. 48 00:02:56,070 --> 00:02:58,480 We liked the Zeitgeist project so much 49 00:02:58,620 --> 00:03:02,810 that we decided to share some parts of it with you 50 00:03:02,970 --> 00:03:06,140 throughout this 4th edition of "The Meaning of Life". 51 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:10,760 They are short and, according to us, enlightening fragments like this one. 52 00:03:15,430 --> 00:03:18,010 Now, my grandmother was a wonderful person. 53 00:03:18,610 --> 00:03:21,410 She taught me how to play the game Monopoly. 54 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,290 She understood that the name of the game is to acquire. 55 00:03:25,450 --> 00:03:27,600 She would accumulate everything she could and eventually 56 00:03:27,750 --> 00:03:30,930 she became the master of the board. 57 00:03:31,070 --> 00:03:33,250 And then she would always say the same thing to me. 58 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:34,960 She looked at me and said 59 00:03:35,110 --> 00:03:38,390 “One day, you'll learn to play the game.” 60 00:03:38,980 --> 00:03:42,550 One summer, I played Monopoly almost every day, all day long. 61 00:03:42,690 --> 00:03:45,470 And that summer, I learned to play the game. 62 00:03:45,610 --> 00:03:47,760 I came to understand the only way to win 63 00:03:47,910 --> 00:03:50,660 is to make a total commitment to acquisition. 64 00:03:50,810 --> 00:03:52,900 I came to understand that money and possessions 65 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,390 that's the way that you keep score. 66 00:03:56,130 --> 00:03:59,770 And by the end of that summer, I was more ruthless than my grandmother. 67 00:03:59,910 --> 00:04:03,550 I was ready to bend the rules if I had to, to win that game. 68 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,510 And I sat down with her to play that fall. 69 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,650 I took everything she had. 70 00:04:08,790 --> 00:04:13,340 I watched her give her last dollar and quit in utter defeat. 71 00:04:14,260 --> 00:04:18,600 And then she had one more thing to teach me. 72 00:04:18,820 --> 00:04:22,170 Then she said 73 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,750 “Now it all goes back in the box." 74 00:04:26,020 --> 00:04:27,510 Clip #2 75 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:33,020 As we did in the last episode of this 4th season of "The Meaning of Life" 76 00:04:33,030 --> 00:04:37,600 we will showcase some clips from "Zeitgeist". 77 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,720 Zeitgeist, which means spirit of time 78 00:04:40,870 --> 00:04:44,380 is a movie directed by Peter Joseph. 79 00:04:44,540 --> 00:04:50,150 It is a countercurrent and countercultural view of our reality. 80 00:04:50,300 --> 00:04:54,340 Here's today's segment. 81 00:05:03,830 --> 00:05:08,970 In a world where 1% of the population owns 40% of the planet's wealth... 82 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,990 In a world where 34.000 children die every single day 83 00:05:12,130 --> 00:05:15,800 from poverty and preventable diseases 84 00:05:15,950 --> 00:05:18,310 and where 50% of the world's population 85 00:05:18,460 --> 00:05:20,860 lives on less than 2 dollars a day... 86 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,990 One thing is clear. 87 00:05:23,810 --> 00:05:26,080 Something is very wrong. 88 00:05:26,630 --> 00:05:28,690 And whether we are aware of it or not 89 00:05:28,830 --> 00:05:31,370 the lifeblood of all of our established institutions 90 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,760 and thus society itself, is money. 91 00:05:35,410 --> 00:05:38,800 Therefore, understanding this institution of monetary policy 92 00:05:38,950 --> 00:05:43,550 is critical to understanding why our lives are the way they are. 93 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:48,790 Unfortunately, economics is often viewed with confusion and boredom. 94 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,130 Endless streams of financial jargon 95 00:05:51,270 --> 00:05:53,270 coupled with intimidating mathematics 96 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,900 quickly deters people from attempts at understanding it. 97 00:05:56,070 --> 00:06:00,620 However, the complexity associated with the financial system is a mere mask 98 00:06:00,770 --> 00:06:05,390 designed to conceal one of the most socially paralyzing structures 99 00:06:05,540 --> 00:06:07,900 humanity has ever endured. 100 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,020 Clip #3 101 00:06:15,180 --> 00:06:19,220 The dominant values of a culture tend to support and perpetuate 102 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,610 what is rewarded by that culture. 103 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,350 And in a society where success and status 104 00:06:24,500 --> 00:06:29,230 is measured by material wealth, not social contribution 105 00:06:29,390 --> 00:06:32,710 it is easy to see why the state of the world is what it is today. 106 00:06:32,870 --> 00:06:37,190 We are dealing with a value system disorder, completely denatured 107 00:06:37,370 --> 00:06:40,230 where the priority of personal and social health 108 00:06:40,370 --> 00:06:43,570 have become secondary to the detrimental notions 109 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,510 of artificial wealth and limitless growth. 110 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,650 And, like a virus, this disorder now permeates 111 00:06:49,790 --> 00:06:52,920 every facet of government, news media 112 00:06:53,070 --> 00:06:56,020 entertainment and even academia. 113 00:06:56,180 --> 00:06:59,100 And built into its structure are mechanisms of protection 114 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,680 from anything that might interfere. 115 00:07:01,830 --> 00:07:04,170 Disciples of the monetary-market religion 116 00:07:04,310 --> 00:07:07,150 the self-appointed guardians of the status quo 117 00:07:07,290 --> 00:07:10,720 constantly seek out ways to avoid any form of thought 118 00:07:10,860 --> 00:07:12,980 which might interfere with their beliefs 119 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,320 the most common of which are projected dualities. 120 00:07:17,930 --> 00:07:20,690 If you're not a Republican, you must be a Democrat. 121 00:07:20,830 --> 00:07:23,790 If you are not Christian, you might be a Satanist. 122 00:07:23,940 --> 00:07:26,220 And if you feel society can be greatly improved 123 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,950 to consider, perhaps, I don't know, taking care of everyone? 124 00:07:29,100 --> 00:07:31,930 You're just a “Utopianist”. 125 00:07:32,790 --> 00:07:35,100 And the most insidious of them all: 126 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,670 If you are not for the "free-market" 127 00:07:37,820 --> 00:07:39,610 you must be against freedom itself. 128 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,570 Clip #4 129 00:07:42,450 --> 00:07:45,640 If there is any testament to the plasticity of the human mind... 130 00:07:45,790 --> 00:07:48,540 If there is any proof to how malleable human thought is 131 00:07:48,700 --> 00:07:52,330 and how easily conditioned and guided people can become 132 00:07:52,470 --> 00:07:55,040 based on the nature of their environmental stimulus 133 00:07:55,180 --> 00:07:57,360 and what it reinforces 134 00:07:57,510 --> 00:08:00,630 the world of commercial advertising is the proof. 135 00:08:01,490 --> 00:08:04,590 You have to stand in awe at the level of brainwashing 136 00:08:04,730 --> 00:08:08,630 where these programmed robots known as "consumers" 137 00:08:08,810 --> 00:08:12,930 wander the landscape only to walk into a store and spend, say 138 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:18,340 $4000 on a handbag that likely cost $10 to make 139 00:08:18,490 --> 00:08:21,810 in a sweatshop overseas 140 00:08:22,850 --> 00:08:26,400 only for the brand status it supposedly represents 141 00:08:26,530 --> 00:08:28,540 in the culture. 142 00:08:28,910 --> 00:08:31,860 Or perhaps the ancient communal traditions which increase trust 143 00:08:32,010 --> 00:08:34,350 and cohesiveness in society 144 00:08:34,500 --> 00:08:36,550 which have now been hijacked by acquisitive 145 00:08:36,680 --> 00:08:39,160 materialistic values where now annually 146 00:08:39,300 --> 00:08:42,810 we exchange useless crap a few times a year. 147 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,070 And we might wonder why so many today 148 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,530 have a compulsion to shopping and acquisition 149 00:08:49,680 --> 00:08:52,960 when it is clear that they have been conditioned from childhood 150 00:08:53,130 --> 00:08:56,690 to expect material goods as a sign of their status 151 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,250 with friends and family. 152 00:09:00,290 --> 00:09:02,260 Clip #5 153 00:09:02,610 --> 00:09:06,150 Famines throughout at least the last century of our history 154 00:09:06,650 --> 00:09:09,700 have not been caused by a lack of food. 155 00:09:09,850 --> 00:09:13,670 They have been caused by relative poverty. 156 00:09:13,820 --> 00:09:17,500 The economic resources were so inequitably distributed 157 00:09:17,650 --> 00:09:21,310 that the poor simply didn't have enough money 158 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,000 with which to buy the food that would've been available 159 00:09:24,150 --> 00:09:26,910 if they could have afforded to pay for it. 160 00:09:27,110 --> 00:09:30,080 That would be an example of "Structural Violence". 161 00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:33,920 Gandhi saw this. He said 162 00:09:34,070 --> 00:09:39,030 “The deadliest form of violence is poverty.” 163 00:09:39,180 --> 00:09:40,800 And that's absolutely right. 164 00:09:40,940 --> 00:09:45,520 Poverty kills far more people than all the wars in history 165 00:09:46,210 --> 00:09:48,420 more people than all the murderers 166 00:09:48,570 --> 00:09:51,390 and all the suicides in history. 167 00:09:51,570 --> 00:09:54,610 Not only does Structural Violence kill more people 168 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,230 than all the Behavioral Violence put together 169 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:03,470 Structural Violence is also the main cause of Behavioral Violence. 170 00:10:03,630 --> 00:10:05,070 Clip #6 171 00:10:05,630 --> 00:10:07,500 So, a Resource-Based Economy 172 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,210 is nothing more than a set of proven, life supporting understandings 173 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,730 where all decisions are based upon 174 00:10:13,870 --> 00:10:17,150 optimized human and environmental sustainability. 175 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,690 It takes into account the “Life Ground” which every human being shares 176 00:10:20,830 --> 00:10:25,860 as a need, regardless of their political or religious philosophy. 177 00:10:26,620 --> 00:10:30,420 There is no cultural relativism to this approach. 178 00:10:30,570 --> 00:10:32,700 It isn't a matter of opinion. 179 00:10:32,850 --> 00:10:35,520 Human needs are human needs 180 00:10:35,680 --> 00:10:38,870 and having access to the necessities of life, such as clean air 181 00:10:39,010 --> 00:10:41,110 nutritious food and clean water 182 00:10:41,250 --> 00:10:43,830 along with a positively reinforcing, stable 183 00:10:43,950 --> 00:10:47,260 nurturing, non-violent environment 184 00:10:47,410 --> 00:10:51,180 as demanded for our mental and physical health 185 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:56,020 our evolutionary fitness, and hence, the species' survival itself. 186 00:10:56,190 --> 00:10:57,830 Clip #7 187 00:10:59,070 --> 00:11:03,350 Making homes using hammers and nails and wood 188 00:11:03,500 --> 00:11:07,560 with the state of our technology today 189 00:11:07,710 --> 00:11:10,850 is really absurd and will go the way of our labor class 190 00:11:10,990 --> 00:11:14,990 in regards to manufacturing in the United States. 191 00:11:15,170 --> 00:11:20,160 Recently, there was a study by economist David Autor of MIT 192 00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:22,690 that states that our middle class is obsolete 193 00:11:22,830 --> 00:11:27,080 and being replaced by automation. 194 00:11:27,860 --> 00:11:30,900 Quite simply, mechanization is more productive 195 00:11:31,050 --> 00:11:33,750 efficient and sustainable than human labor 196 00:11:33,890 --> 00:11:37,110 in virtually every sector of the economy today. 197 00:11:37,330 --> 00:11:41,660 Machines do not need vacations, breaks, insurance, pensions 198 00:11:41,830 --> 00:11:45,040 and they can work 24 hours a day, everyday. 199 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,000 The output potential and accuracy 200 00:11:47,140 --> 00:11:50,090 compared to human labor, is unmatched. 201 00:11:50,230 --> 00:11:53,970 The bottom line: Repetitive human labor is becoming obsolete 202 00:11:54,110 --> 00:11:56,280 and impractical across the world 203 00:11:56,420 --> 00:11:58,380 and today's unemployment is fundamentally 204 00:11:58,530 --> 00:12:01,600 the result of this evolution of efficiency in technology. 205 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,020 The bottom line is that the “labor for income” game 206 00:12:05,170 --> 00:12:07,170 is slowly coming to an end. 207 00:12:07,310 --> 00:12:09,450 In fact, if you take a moment to reflect on the jobs 208 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,440 which are in existence today which automation could take over 209 00:12:12,590 --> 00:12:16,910 right now, if applied, 75% of the global workforce 210 00:12:17,060 --> 00:12:20,860 could be replaced by mechanization tomorrow. 211 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,000 Clip #8 212 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,480 Now, we'd like to end this fourth season of "The Meaning of Life" 213 00:12:27,620 --> 00:12:32,510 by leaving the conclusion to 95-year-old Jacque Fresco 214 00:12:32,830 --> 00:12:34,820 who would have attended in person if he could. 215 00:12:34,970 --> 00:12:38,350 Unfortunately, his age prevented him from doing so. 216 00:12:38,490 --> 00:12:43,340 He is the founder of The Venus Project which we came to know 217 00:12:43,490 --> 00:12:47,310 through the documentary movie "Zeitgeist: Moving Forward" 218 00:12:47,460 --> 00:12:50,510 which we have shown in some of its segments. 219 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,100 I suggest you to follow his speech carefully 220 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,820 in which he will express his vision of things 221 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,610 with a deep sense of freedom. 222 00:12:58,750 --> 00:13:03,050 See you all at the next edition of "The Meaning of Life" hopefully. 223 00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:11,377 When I was a young man 224 00:13:11,527 --> 00:13:13,698 growing up in New York City 225 00:13:13,842 --> 00:13:17,111 I refused to pledge allegiance to the flag. 226 00:13:18,456 --> 00:13:22,507 Of course I was sent to the principal's office, and he asked me 227 00:13:22,651 --> 00:13:26,447 "Why don't you want to pledge allegiance? Everybody does!" 228 00:13:26,630 --> 00:13:30,089 I said "Everybody once believed the Earth was flat 229 00:13:30,227 --> 00:13:32,079 but that doesn't make it so." 230 00:13:32,229 --> 00:13:35,604 I explained that America owed everything it has 231 00:13:35,754 --> 00:13:38,063 to other cultures and other nations 232 00:13:38,207 --> 00:13:40,243 and that I would rather pledge allegiance 233 00:13:40,387 --> 00:13:43,911 to the Earth and everyone on it. 234 00:13:44,180 --> 00:13:49,433 Needless to say it wasn't long before I left school entirely 235 00:13:49,583 --> 00:13:52,176 and I set up a lab in my bedroom. 236 00:13:52,314 --> 00:13:55,955 There I began to learn about science and nature. 237 00:13:56,099 --> 00:14:00,557 I realized then that the universe is governed by laws 238 00:14:00,726 --> 00:14:03,638 and that the human being, along with society itself 239 00:14:03,788 --> 00:14:06,651 was not exempt from these laws. 240 00:14:07,258 --> 00:14:10,120 Then came the crash of 1929 241 00:14:10,258 --> 00:14:14,208 which began what we now call "The Great Depression". 242 00:14:14,458 --> 00:14:19,266 I found it difficult to understand why millions were out of work 243 00:14:19,448 --> 00:14:21,896 homeless, starving 244 00:14:22,050 --> 00:14:25,875 while all the factories were sitting there. 245 00:14:26,026 --> 00:14:28,043 The resources were unchanged. 246 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,040 It was then that I realized 247 00:14:31,184 --> 00:14:34,681 that the rules of the economic game were inherently invalid. 248 00:14:34,825 --> 00:14:37,759 Shortly after, came World War II 249 00:14:37,903 --> 00:14:39,999 where various nations took turns 250 00:14:40,137 --> 00:14:42,705 systematically destroying each other. 251 00:14:43,112 --> 00:14:46,512 I later calculated that all the destruction 252 00:14:46,656 --> 00:14:48,574 and wasted resources spent on that war 253 00:14:48,718 --> 00:14:53,805 could have easily provided for every human need on the planet. 254 00:14:56,811 --> 00:14:59,207 Since that time I have watched humanity 255 00:14:59,345 --> 00:15:03,105 set the stage for its own extinction. 256 00:15:03,636 --> 00:15:06,752 I have watched as the precious finite resources 257 00:15:06,902 --> 00:15:09,577 are perpetually wasted and destroyed 258 00:15:09,718 --> 00:15:13,028 in the name of profit and free markets. 259 00:15:13,172 --> 00:15:16,284 I have watched the social values of society 260 00:15:16,435 --> 00:15:19,604 be reduced into a base artificiality of materialism 261 00:15:19,747 --> 00:15:23,104 and mindless consumption. 262 00:15:23,398 --> 00:15:26,167 And I have watched as the monetary powers 263 00:15:26,311 --> 00:15:31,399 control the political structure of supposedly free societies. 264 00:15:33,029 --> 00:15:35,813 I'm 94 years old now 265 00:15:35,963 --> 00:15:38,146 and I'm afraid my disposition 266 00:15:38,290 --> 00:15:41,636 is the same as it was 75 years ago. 267 00:15:44,860 --> 00:15:47,568 This shit's got to go. 268 00:15:47,786 --> 00:15:49,751 Clip #9 269 00:15:54,540 --> 00:15:57,130 A “RESOURCE-BASED ECONOMY” 270 00:15:57,790 --> 00:16:00,360 The idea was defined in the 1970's 271 00:16:00,500 --> 00:16:02,380 by structural engineer Jacque Fresco. 272 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,050 He understood back then that society was on a collision course 273 00:16:05,190 --> 00:16:09,480 with nature and itself, unsustainable on every level 274 00:16:09,690 --> 00:16:11,540 and if things didn't change 275 00:16:11,690 --> 00:16:15,310 we would destroy ourselves, one way or another. 276 00:16:15,490 --> 00:16:18,010 (Larry King) Are all of these things you are saying, Jacque 277 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,950 could they be built with what we know today? 278 00:16:21,100 --> 00:16:24,509 Or are you guessing based on what we know today? 279 00:16:24,670 --> 00:16:28,610 - No, all of these things can be built with what we know today. 280 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,680 It would take 10 years to change the surface of the earth 281 00:16:31,820 --> 00:16:35,750 to rebuild the world into a second Garden of Eden. 282 00:16:35,890 --> 00:16:39,230 The choice lies with you.
