Aristotle's point that the best teacher demonstrates his own profound knowledge by conveying it to others with clarity brilliantly exemplified by Dr Peterson. He clearly cares to illuminate the subject (or the world) rather than give the listener a sense of their cerebral inadequacies. How encouraging and inspiring! Extremely grateful for the upload! it's a pity I need to rest, sleep etc between lectures...
It amazing how the majority of people who know about Jordan Peterson only know him through his political discussions or his books 12 rules for life series. Before everyone started labeling him alt-right or anything as stupid as that I watched through plenty of his lectures. These are the best lectures I've ever had the experience of listening to, I don't take any notes and I can articulate the lectures very well. Jordan also gave me a substantial amount of perspective when it came to the bible, I hate church but I can listen to Jordan Peterson talk about heroic initiation and Jesus Christ for hours.
What about Alan Watts? In my opinion they are on the same level. Christopher Hithens too, but I kinda lost interest in his ideas and the way he presented them and argued. Not completely, but it has substiantally diminished. Definitely professor Peterson is in the upper echelon of top lobsters among youtube talking heads. There are also JAmes Hilman and Terrence McKenna and last but not least Slavoj Zizek. And Richard Grannon and Camilla PAglia. All are among my favourite speakers and I love them all. But buck to Peterson. Been listening to him since 2017 and not the least bit tired or bored of the content and the form. My girlfriend would on the other hand agree with you I guess. She is not impressed but all the figures I mention. She's kind of a devoted fan of Jordan Peterson. Especially the "clean your room" part. She often says: pst, bucko! And I instantly know... :D
I've been a big fan of Dr. Peterson for years but I've never watched his past lectures. Now that I've decided to delve into them I can't believe I haven't done so sooner. Absolutely interesting and illuminating! Thanks for your years of study and learning and willingness to share that wealth of knowledge in digestible and pragmatic ways. Your teaching has benefited my life greatly, and I'll be forever grateful for that!
This is such a brilliant lecture, the ability there to bring everyone into the room by asking them about their life experiences and to contemplate the affects it had on them. Then he affirms to them that they know the pain it brings and it’s devastating affects. It put me and probably the w whole class in a place where I was waiting on every word. It brings the metaphorical representation into my own life and into the lives of the students so that they can understand it based on their own contextual knowledge built through the lived experience. Brilliant teaching
We all know JBP is wise. But what i love about him the most is that he is highly articulate and fast but also down to earth and knows how to convey big things in small phrases.
Your videos always trigger some memory I have that are examples of what you are saying OR they trigger imaginative thought and I have to keep going back and listening because I've drifted into some fantasy you've sparked in my mind haha. This video was probably one of your best, in my opinion, it was non-stop BANG BANG BANG information that was explained extremely well!
No one ever clapped a lecturer when i was at uni. I think it's great though - if it is genuinely deserved as is definitely the case for JPs interaction and delivery. He doesn't regurgitate teaching points by rote or dot points on a PowerPoint. I think the other thing that separates JP from the herd is his wisdom. Sadly a lot of lecturers are very smart people that are very bad at imparting that knowledge...it appears many, even if they have knowledge and understanding haven't made the next leap to practical wisdom. The bane of professional academics I suppose?
Speaking of dreams I have a theory: That our brain is constantly dreaming, and that we ignore it because the part responsible for conscious awareness (and by extend the parts of the body that receive external stimuli) overwrite it. An idea that just popped in my head then is basically part of a dream that I largely ignored but got the concept. Daydreamers (like me) can redirect sensory experience) and notice the mind generating the dreams. If the difference between imagination and dream is the amount of influence we can exercise in *what* we see/do, then maybe people with vivid imagination can control the contents of their dreams better the moment they're aware of them?
The Bathtub That's a fascinating view. I feel like I'm at the low end of noticing daytime imagination/dreams. I've always felt less creative than others. I'll try considering your view that I'm always dreaming and maybe tune in a little better.
Well there is lucid dreaming where you become aware that you're dreaming within a dream and can then control it or consciously travel and interact with the dream world. I daydream sometimes to the point where if interrupted by someone I find it jarring. Or if I forget where I am within my daydream it's like losing your bookmark in a novel or maybe more like losing the novel altogether. I've panicked before when a daydream slips my mind after getting distracted by something. I almost always can get it back/remember it again though.
Hearing im a set of loose aggregations more or less going in the same direction, thats deluded into thinking theres a unity. Really helps take the edge off existence.
makes perfect sense, many historians see social norms in a very similar way, similar conclusions but via different initial inquiries. different paths to perhaps a shared destination.
I would have the following Question to Prof. Peterson: we hear that brain size developed in reagrd to group size. Geoffrey Miller has the theory that brain size is an sexual ornament like the peacocks tail, as we use our brains for arts (music, painting, literature.....) which is not necessary to survive, so brain size would be more to outcompete male rivals than to interact with others......do we have to see this as two contradictionary theories??? Thanks in advance for clarification!
Omg I';ve never heard Peterson talk about the Hobbit or Tolkien stories before hell yes. Immediately it's incredibly interesting and insightful of course. I wish he would deal more with Tolkien actually I've heard enough Pinochio at this point.
At around 43 minutes, he explains that clinical depression is the gap between a person's competence and their self assessment. But then he gives an example of someone whose life is so messed up that they may feel bad but they're not depressed, because their self assessment is correct.

among our motivations is the motivation to understand motivation, it's very circular and maddening to think about and I think it's the reason we voluntarily subject ourselves to the possession of spirits in the form of drama, to see the same world with another person's goal in mind, and extract something true about the nature of goals and minds. Isn't it only in that theater-audience dynamic that symbols can begin to exist, when there is a group and a common goal of understanding goals? The other piece of this puzzle is how fun it is to do this even when the material is not about happy stuff happening all the time. I just read "Medea" by Euripedes and it's nothing but the turning over of untenable situations and the comprehension of a deep wrongness with society that someone like Medea--strong and loyal, an ideal mother--could end up murdering her babes and shattering her sanity in the process. It wasn't a happy read, but it was FUN, because it allowed me to SEE. I couldn't turn away.
Jordan. I agree with you on a lot of points, but one of the main reasons I'm watching this series is I am looking for little glimpses of the emotional foundation upon which you built your world view.
Piddyx the cold war is something he mentions that is along the lines you are speaking of. He opens his book Maps of Meaning by explaining how the state of the world at the time was inspiration for his work. Maybe try one of the intro lectures of maps of meaning
I remember smoking pot when I was 12 years old and thinking what separates us from chimps, and in my altered state I wondered if someone gave chimps some weed would that alter their perception the same as it would a human? Now thanks to Jordan Peterson I know the answer.
Not to be against Jordan's point, but I think there could be a lot to learn from ants if we could speak to them. "Like what's the smallest thing they can see?" "Can you draw it to compare it to ours?" They see life from a whole different perspective.
very good I love these so far, however Bilbo being hired as a "thief" isn't what you think of a thief as. It was more a sneaky individual, they hired him because Smaug would not be able to recognize his scent because he never encountered Hobbits before but yeah the thief isn't a robber in the current use of the word, it CAN be but they weren't always recognized as criminals. In many societies in Europe thieves weren't considered bad people
حتى إذا أتوا على واد النملة قالت نملة يأيها النمل ادخلوا مسكنكم لا يحطمنكم سليمن وجنوده وهم لا يشعرون. فتبسم ضاحكًا من قولها وقال رب أوزعني أن أشكر نعمتك التي أنعمت علي... “Until they arrived at the valley of ant, an ant said: ‘Ants, enter your dwelling lest Solomon and his army crushes you unknowingly. So (Solomon) laughed smiling at her (the ant) speech and said: O my Lord help me to be thankful to the blessings you have given to me... [Quran 27:18] I think if we could to talk to ants - there will be lots of talk about eg feeling of hunger, survivability, being scared of a bigger stronger being than you etc. Muslims would be particularly interested in how Ants glorify and worship God - that is a common value in all creation according to the Quran.
Just out of curiosity... Is it usual in Canada to clap at the end of a lecture, a brilliant lecture as this one, I mean? I've never seen something like that here, in Spain, at least while I was studying.
Saturn, Venus, Mars- God, Mary, Christ... the symbolism predates Christianity's 'trinity' and goes back to earliest known ancient records. This planetary alignment would also produce cross and other symbolism that is littered all through ancient times (including plasma discharges etc or 'dragons' in the sky). So, it has been suggested that maybe Saturn as a brown dwarf was our original 'sun' (god) with Venus (godess) and Mars (warrior) in the front closest to Earth. Planetary instability causing havoc and rise to the myths and legends by the survivors of the catastrophic event and rise of the obsession with sky watching etc which morphed into the religions eventually. Instability then resulting in a new alignment of planets and capture by a new star (our sun we have today), which explains the 'odd' placement of large planets in current location that keeps confusing scientists, the scaring/'stripping' of Mars, the 'new' and/or unexplained rings of Saturn (with current theories anyway) and the apparent knowledge in ancient past of these planets as though they could somehow see them better than we can without telescopes etc. Anyways, interesting theories that answer many questions but then opens a whole other can of worms lol. I do however think there is merit to the ideas, not just to answer questions about our planets but to give answers to the origin of the first myths and archetypes that eventually became a deep psychological issue, a cause of anxiety and dread for human beings and therefore influence society that otherwise seem completely illogical without an origin. 'Cause and effect" as is said. Or, I can just buy the idea that it all stems back to ancient imagination and a global delusion :P. Who knows, I wasn't there! lol
Hmm, maybe I should have calculated the number of times I have experience with fictional characters in figuring on extraversion dimensions. Technology and conventional wisdom today tell young people that if they are watching tv and playing video games, then we aren't getting much in way of social interaction. I might have to evaluate what I have learned through anonymity on the Internet especially in fandoms, too.
Damn, what is this a scary place! There is no peace here, at least, not for long. It is the back against the wall, and give everything you got, for as long as you can, and then die. I guess you have to find the meaning in the struggle itself. I will belief, support, the part of me, that is willing and capable of change/transforming, with everything I got.
It's not so bad, just got to find meaning in the narrative of your personal life journey as you said, who's to say how much is capable of being transformed, its all about potential, the search for the grail i suppose,the quest is the thing!!!..go where your interests lie.
So many people overfocus and misinterpret his point from minute three in this video as he restated it in his book. It’s funny and frustrating at the same time how his words were taken out of context.
I love all content Jordan has put on youtube, also his passion for his work, but I have only one objection, where he says that there isn't something like emotional intelligence. If I have undetstood it wrong than I apologize myself I would like someone to put more light on it what he means by that. I recommend people watching content of Dr. Joe Dispenza and others similar to him. But Dr. Joe Dispenza is something like Dr. Peterson man more down on earth. Have a nice day people. 👋
If you look further into the claim of "emotional intelligence" you will find that regular intelligence... (IQ)... eats up all the variance. In other words.... people with high IQ.... also have high "emotional intelligence". Therfore emotional intelligence is just a made up construct people try to put forth because they don't like the idea of only one intelligence, even though the scientific literature says otherwise.
Umm…your comment is dated as “10 months ago”-which would place it, and you and I, in the year 2021…which, by executing some pretty basic math, I reach the tally of…OH YEAH! 6 years ago, as 2015 is 6 years before 2021. Geez…WAKE THE F@%K UP!!! Ga’damnnnn…
Peterson helped confirm suspicions that I had when I was younger. That is there are so many women/girls out there who are viewed as 'grown ups' but are mentally and emotionally childish, many of them are given jobs and considered valuable members of society.
several statements are just ... not to find words for... i would expect a practicing therapist to portrait another way of looking at the world its topics, problems and especially at his clients ... beside of this the content is interesteing
Jesus said something i never did understand,but Professor Jordan has opened my eyes to what it could mean . Jesus made a statement to the religious leaders opposing him saying "I have come in my fathers name and you would not believe me , another will come in his own name him you will believe " who is this person who will come ? Jesus came representing age old wisdom " THE FATHER " ...the other one would come representing his own gray matter,his own wisdom that would be divorced from the wisdom of acquired truth through the ages in particular religious wisdom ...I think Karl Marx and his followers represent this thinking very well , reducing it and comparing it to mind altering drugs.. Opium ..such pride .
Dumb. Just so…dumb. You ever even read Marx?? I highly doubt it. If you have, it’s quite apparent you didn’t comprehend his meanings. That, and the fact that you use an incredibly over referenced quote of his-completely devoid of any context-indicates a profound lack of understanding the core of Marx’s message
That is a matter for one's personal conscience and is debatable and probably not fixed over time and so is cultural. the nature /nurture thing. Nature is "red in tooth and claw" and that part of us is tempered by cultural factors ,so who's to say what is best for us and is the way forward? MGTOW just seems like a reaction of disillusioned males to "not getting layed" ..therfore they must feel alienated from society in some way...and have formed a subculture called MGTOW to gain a scence of collective identity and relevance?

you can be so stupid that you don't recognise you are depressed and are so ignorant to self reflection that you maintain a level of inner happiness

among our motivations is the motivation to understand motivation, it's very circular and maddening to think about and I think it's the reason we voluntarily subject ourselves to the possession of spirits in the form of drama, to see the same world with another person's goal in mind, and extract something true about the nature of goals and minds. Isn't it only in that theater-audience dynamic that symbols can begin to exist, when there is a group and a common goal of understanding goals? The other piece of this puzzle is how fun it is to do this even when the material is not about happy stuff happening all the time.

It wasn't a happy read, but it was FUN, because it allowed me to SEE. I couldn't turn away.
Thank u Jordan P,
Jordan. I agree with you on a lot of points, but one of the main reasons I'm watching this series is I am looking for little glimpses of the emotional foundation upon which you built your world view.
read jung, campbel and christian mysticism, symbology, mythology and check out brief areas of psychology
Thats all intellectual stuff. I'd like to know what in his history or personality makes him tick.
well, he was born as human being. That what "makes him tick". BTW do you expect JBP will start to confess to some random dude in the internet? )
You seem really sensitive for some reason.
Piddyx the cold war is something he mentions that is along the lines you are speaking of. He opens his book Maps of Meaning by explaining how the state of the world at the time was inspiration for his work. Maybe try one of the intro lectures of maps of meaning
I remember smoking pot when I was 12 years old and thinking what separates us from chimps, and in my altered state I wondered if someone gave chimps some weed would that alter their perception the same as it would a human?
Now thanks to Jordan Peterson I know the answer.
oh yeah i get it... your just taking an immature approach. hope it works for you.. NOT...lol
Not to be against Jordan's point, but I think there could be a lot to learn from ants if we could speak to them. "Like what's the smallest thing they can see?" "Can you draw it to compare it to ours?" They see life from a whole different perspective.
What does he say at 19:16 ?
"(It's not that unreasonable to) ... think of ourselves as something more like a ____."
"...more like an anthill than as something that's a completely unitary structure."
very good I love these so far, however Bilbo being hired as a "thief" isn't what you think of a thief as. It was more a sneaky individual, they hired him because Smaug would not be able to recognize his scent because he never encountered Hobbits before but yeah the thief isn't a robber in the current use of the word, it CAN be but they weren't always recognized as criminals. In many societies in Europe thieves weren't considered bad people
حتى إذا أتوا على واد النملة قالت نملة يأيها النمل ادخلوا مسكنكم لا يحطمنكم سليمن وجنوده وهم لا يشعرون. فتبسم ضاحكًا من قولها وقال رب أوزعني أن أشكر نعمتك التي أنعمت علي...
“Until they arrived at the valley of ant, an ant said: ‘Ants, enter your dwelling lest Solomon and his army crushes you unknowingly. So (Solomon) laughed smiling at her (the ant) speech and said: O my Lord help me to be thankful to the blessings you have given to me... [Quran 27:18]
I think if we could to talk to ants - there will be lots of talk about eg feeling of hunger, survivability, being scared of a bigger stronger being than you etc. Muslims would be particularly interested in how Ants glorify and worship God - that is a common value in all creation according to the Quran.
Interesting.
I'll watch this on a Thursday 🤣
Just out of curiosity... Is it usual in Canada to clap at the end of a lecture, a brilliant lecture as this one, I mean? I've never seen something like that here, in Spain, at least while I was studying.
What are the reading materials for this course?
Saturn, Venus, Mars- God, Mary, Christ... the symbolism predates Christianity's 'trinity' and goes back to earliest known ancient records. This planetary alignment would also produce cross and other symbolism that is littered all through ancient times (including plasma discharges etc or 'dragons' in the sky). So, it has been suggested that maybe Saturn as a brown dwarf was our original 'sun' (god) with Venus (godess) and Mars (warrior) in the front closest to Earth. Planetary instability causing havoc and rise to the myths and legends by the survivors of the catastrophic event and rise of the obsession with sky watching etc which morphed into the religions eventually. Instability then resulting in a new alignment of planets and capture by a new star (our sun we have today), which explains the 'odd' placement of large planets in current location that keeps confusing scientists, the scaring/'stripping' of Mars, the 'new' and/or unexplained rings of Saturn (with current theories anyway) and the apparent knowledge in ancient past of these planets as though they could somehow see them better than we can without telescopes etc.
Anyways, interesting theories that answer many questions but then opens a whole other can of worms lol. I do however think there is merit to the ideas, not just to answer questions about our planets but to give answers to the origin of the first myths and archetypes that eventually became a deep psychological issue, a cause of anxiety and dread for human beings and therefore influence society that otherwise seem completely illogical without an origin. 'Cause and effect" as is said. Or, I can just buy the idea that it all stems back to ancient imagination and a global delusion :P. Who knows, I wasn't there! lol
RUclips is killing these vids with adds! Gaws!
Did he call everyone a C U Next Tuesday at the end there?
jordan's chubby back here, LOL
Hmm, maybe I should have calculated the number of times I have experience with fictional characters in figuring on extraversion dimensions. Technology and conventional wisdom today tell young people that if they are watching tv and playing video games, then we aren't getting much in way of social interaction. I might have to evaluate what I have learned through anonymity on the Internet especially in fandoms, too.
Precursor to all three.
Awesome
The thumbnail had Jesus and Mushrooms...
Damn, what is this a scary place! There is no peace here, at least, not for long. It is the back against the wall, and give everything you got, for as long as you can, and then die. I guess you have to find the meaning in the struggle itself. I will belief, support, the part of me, that is willing and capable of change/transforming, with everything I got.
🤙🏼
It's not so bad, just got to find meaning in the narrative of your personal life journey as you said, who's to say how much is capable of being transformed, its all about potential, the search for the grail i suppose,the quest is the thing!!!..go where your interests lie.
So many people overfocus and misinterpret his point from minute three in this video as he restated it in his book. It’s funny and frustrating at the same time how his words were taken out of context.
"Implicit Knowledge" is the term you were looking for @ 49:40

I love all content Jordan has put on youtube, also his passion for his work, but I have only one objection, where he says that there isn't something like emotional intelligence. If I have undetstood it wrong than I apologize myself I would like someone to put more light on it what he means by that.
I recommend people watching content of Dr. Joe Dispenza and others similar to him. But Dr. Joe Dispenza is something like Dr. Peterson man more down on earth. Have a nice day people. 👋
If you look further into the claim of "emotional intelligence" you will find that regular intelligence... (IQ)... eats up all the variance. In other words.... people with high IQ.... also have high "emotional intelligence". Therfore emotional intelligence is just a made up construct people try to put forth because they don't like the idea of only one intelligence, even though the scientific literature says otherwise.
@@thomaslove6494 Interesting I didn't know that and didn't thought of it like that 🙂
2015 was 2 years ago why does this say 6?
Umm…your comment is dated as “10 months ago”-which would place it, and you and I, in the year 2021…which, by executing some pretty basic math, I reach the tally of…OH YEAH! 6 years ago, as 2015 is 6 years before 2021. Geez…WAKE THE F@%K UP!!! Ga’damnnnn…
@@dylanjames4433 obviously a joke that went over your head!!
Good luck with that

That maths on the chalkboard is really irritating to look at lol
Peterson helped confirm suspicions that I had when I was younger.
That is there are so many women/girls out there who are viewed as 'grown ups' but are mentally and emotionally childish, many of them are given jobs and considered valuable members of society.
Are you joking? that is offensive
@@spiralcat2000 Youre nothing more than a primate who is dellusional to the point of self awareness.
@@ThunderAppeal i would say your approach is very immature and inaproapriate and therefore lacks credibility.
@@spiralcat2000 i would say youre on the internet and by default you lack credibility.

For the love of god what is up with all these commercials? I get it to a certain degree but its a bit much

several statements are just ... not to find words for... i would expect a practicing therapist to portrait another way of looking at the world its topics, problems and especially at his clients ... beside of this the content is interesteing
"emotional intelligence does not exist" you should qualify this statement

@@okkokooks8897 Thanks for sharing that link. I couldn't help but read it in his voice. Especially because of his various EXAMPLES of EMPHASIS.
Do any of you actually follow his line of thought? Like you actually get the point of the lecture?
Uh... yeah.... if you watch every lecture in the series in order... he lays out a masterful description of reality and personality.
Feminists must be very low on the dominance hierarchy which is why they seek legislation to make them dominant.
JP has big hands......lol!
another immature comment..who let you in Lol!

Jesus said something i never did understand,but Professor Jordan has opened my eyes to what it could mean . Jesus made a statement to the religious leaders opposing him saying "I have come in my fathers name and you would not believe me , another will come in his own name him you will believe " who is this person who will come ? Jesus came representing age old wisdom " THE FATHER " ...the other one would come representing his own gray matter,his own wisdom that would be divorced from the wisdom of acquired truth through the ages in particular religious wisdom ...I think Karl Marx and his followers represent this thinking very well , reducing it and comparing it to mind altering drugs.. Opium ..such pride .
Dumb. Just so…dumb. You ever even read Marx?? I highly doubt it. If you have, it’s quite apparent you didn’t comprehend his meanings. That, and the fact that you use an incredibly over referenced quote of his-completely devoid of any context-indicates a profound lack of understanding the core of Marx’s message
Rad8cal individualism inside of a soc8al context..,,wow

We're not a pair bonding species. We're a polygamous species. Why are divorce rates so high and why are people having multiple partners in a lifetime?
maybe because men are polygamous wheras women are predominantly hypergamous.
That is a matter for one's personal conscience and is debatable and probably not fixed over time and so is cultural. the nature /nurture thing. Nature is "red in tooth and claw" and that part of us is tempered by cultural factors ,so who's to say what is best for us and is the way forward? MGTOW just seems like a reaction of disillusioned males to "not getting layed" ..therfore they must feel alienated from society in some way...and have formed a subculture called MGTOW to gain a scence of collective identity and relevance?
