when I say my core value is for truth I mean I shape my behavior to incorporate methods that can eliminate delusive beliefs and confirm true beliefs.

I'm not certain that it's a continuum from most substantive vs most spiritual, could see it as claiming that spirituality imbues all levels, but merely that there's a hierarchy in terms of which needs must be satisfied first/are stronger biologically.
-
you don't see that? self-actualization is a need that is 100% spiritual whereas physical subsistence is a need that is 100% physical. the rest of the pyramid in proportion between those. 100% physical need does not mean devoid of spirit, but like, trace quantities.

I don't have a great working definition here, but that paragraph shows the act of satisfying hunger as becoming deeply imbued with spiritual weight once it reaches a certain significance. Self actualization doesn't have a physiological component, but it seems equally spiritual.
-
it's possible to be tube-fed (this is done to prisoners on hunger-strike at times) and derive no spiritual satisfaction at all from it. negative spiritual satisfaction actually. it still meets your physical need for nutrition.
-
do they starve them for 20 days before they begin tube-feeding? Most people do not ever achieve the state of significant hunger Maslow describes.
-
I don't know. a hunger strike situation suggests to me that yes, the potential for life-threatening hunger is present.
