- This public lecture, recorded by TVO, describes the way the world is portrayed in deep stories, such as myths and religious representations. The world in such stories is a place of action, not a place of things, and it has its archetypal characters, positive and negative. Culture is typically represented as paternal, nature as maternal, and the individual as hero and adversary. Culture offers people security, but threatens them with tyranny. Nature offers renewal, but also brings death. The religious path of meaning allows people to negotiate this archetypal landscape.

I cannot fully express my appreciation for this man. Dr. Peterson, you're without a doubt one of the heroes of our time.
Fuck oath
Like jesus but Jordan like the prophet but Jordan.
in my estimation, Jordan deserves his own statue somewhere. Really, i think he made history. At least to me, my life has been saved by one of his lectures when i was in the deepest chambers of my depression.
So true
Vladimyr when I read this I felt what seems to be love , heartfelt appreciation in my stomach area, something like conscious. You have done a pretty good job of expressing that.
This level of discourse should be introduced at the middle school level to begin the real education of young people.
Yeah I think it'd actually be easier for kids to understand this stuff since they don't have much baggage or false beliefs to get in the way
Instead we treat children like children. I's like a tree whose leaves and roots are boxed in. One can speak to a child in a mature (though still clean) way and the child will speak and act more mature. Children should be allowed to grow, not protected from adversity in an absolute sense.
Tyler Gammell
Not all of us, I have had many mind reaching conversations with my pre teens, teens and adult children.
They call it my why revenge for their why stage lol because I always ask why do you think that.
These are the skills that should be taught around the age of 9-10 years of age in school. I dream of the day where we as a society let go of grades and actually teach basic math, reading and the rest is why, without a social justice warrior, nor a one religion is better thinking.
its hard to understand if you fear this kind of reality
it'd be hard for them to understand such complex ideas, so they have to be at least simplified.
I have been thinking that psychology has failed us for several years until I heard Jordan Peterson. He is explaining the world and giving us a philosophy to live by using our religious traditions, philosophic traditions, history and science. I love how he criticizes the left and right and their ideologies, but at the same time points out how both sides are natural and necessary. This is crucial to healing the political war we are having today.
But have you heard Rihanna's new song though?!
Spot bloody on!!!..old chap.
Well said, Tripp. It is mind-boggling that people look at him as an idealogue, when he is anything but.
brianandcindy1
It’s because they don’t want to listen. To really listen makes you question. To question makes you uncomfortable. To question makes you change or to realize you should change.
This is why they hate him. Plus I love the way he speaks in story form and dummies it down. It’s soft peddle of his questioning.
yea dude, taoism... the duality of life, and the dynamic balance between the dualities. Scientific proof comes from Newton declaring "Every action has an opposite and equal re-action", a principle which has been scientifically proven to be true.
This man has looked into the Bible so deep it makes theologians question their faith. As Dr. Peterson would say “look deeper, and deeper, and deeper, then you will start to see the light. He is truly a gift.
I'm gonna take 5 grams of shrooms. Hopefully I have the sophistication to handle "unearned knowledge"
Voluntarily going into the depth of my psyche and going through the depths of hell
Hopefully I'll see the light
15 minutes in and my mind is blown. This guy understands things.
Not only does he understand things, he understands SO MANY things.
@@fs5775 His clear speech and ability to break complex things down into simple, everyday language that anyone can understand is also quite admirable.
I know what you mean. My attitude as well. Found Terence McKenna also very confirming to my own unexpressed understanding.
He's taken wisdom that took humans from everywhere on the globe thousands of years to develop and brings it into the modern context. If you pull together the most profound insights humanity has learned over thousands of years from our best thinkers, it's pretty clear why that's mind-blowing to hear them. He stands on the shoulders of giants, and his lectures are a hand reaching down to pull everyone up onto those shoulders with him.
@@SM-pv4sn My opinion of him has changed dramatically. He's a self-help conman who read too much Jung.
I learned more about my depression & what I can do about it listening to this than anything I've learned during the years I've suffered from it. Thank you
Nice to see I'm not the only one.
But without that suffering this lesson wouldn't have meant anything to you in the first place.

Every time I ignore cleaning my room, my desk, or my car, I always hear his voice in my head... "Do something about this, loser"
It becomes so much easier when I do that
Rodrigo?!!!...
I'm with ya. God Bless.
@imdahG He means it as a challenge not literally. Its to motivate you to get things done instead of sitting on your ass, procrastinate or lie to yourself.
@@tonygoetz9961 Which God should bless him? Or are all Gods the same? Cultural relativism just took on a whole new meaning.
i like the "loser" part....
but let me explain, i take it to mean
"lose something"
'a loser is a person who has lost something.'
i too also call myself mean names, just because i at times, fail to control the monster inside my head. the negativity, the resentment, the vulnerability.
but i try to speak of heroism and tell those next to me, 'hey, we can start winning today, clean our room, clean the table, do the dishes'
"if you walk into your study and you have a stack of papers, buried in the midst of which is your homework, you'll notice you have a very hard time looking at that stack of papers. and the reason for that is the stack of papers that you're ignoring, thats ageing and causing you more trouble with each passing day is a portal into order through which chaos is flowing. and if you ignore that long enough the chaos will flow through that portal and take over your room, and then take over your life."
Trauma based mind spook... He is hypnotising

@@rmk5496 It's a pretty simple metaphor actually
wow this is one of the best CZcams videos Ive ever seen. I was at UofT when he made this speech, going through hard times, feels strange knowing how much this would have helped me as a young undergrad.
Is this what the destruction of the walls of babylon means ?
Mitzvah Capacity!
Gotta recharge the mitzvah
This is my third time listening to this lecture. I've listened to it twice on the podcast and once on YT so far
Feels strange? Try that when you're 70.
"People have an unbelievable capacity to face and overcome things the don't understand."
Words to remember through the rest of your life.
"and that's what gives meaning to life" you forgot the the most important part
This guy is a fucking genius. Or a Warlock. One of those.
Better than that. He is the ultimate master and teacher of all memes.

It's the former. He's IQ is north of 150....so, genius.
HE is ? maybe try His !!!
I'm now watching Dr Petersons video lectures as a 50something man who has experienced many events he talks of, and I can tell you that exactly what happens to one in moments he speaks of, is what occurs.
Its particularly fascinating watching these videos with hindsight . Its so much more than academic.
The Fight Between Good and Evil or between the occult and purity of heart in a nutshell
tedskam .... Reading what you just said.. Sounds like Dr. Peterson in my mind..
I'm the same. I feel kind of embarrassed to admit that a guy who is only 1 year older than me is like the father I never had and I'm taking on board so much of what he says. There is such poignancy in everything he says and I am changing as a result but I can also see so much that has happened to me because of the things I did or didn't do through his revelations too. Still, better now than in 20 years. I make my 2 sons sit down every week to have our Jordan Peterson 20 minutes ! At least they will get a chance to become everything they could be !
tedskam in total agreement as a 56 year old woman!
I can't get mY Dad to listen to JBP, or at least watch a few key videos that I think would help. He's also in his 50s. I bought 2 copies of his book in hopes we could read it together. I've made every attempt I can think of to present the ideas and concepts Peterson articulates as something that would enhance and transform our relationship with one another. Ive thought each act out carefully, but for some reason every attempt to further the development of his understanding fail, and the problems we have between us that are unresolved remain in stasis, and our relationship is not what it could be. It's gripping my soul. To the people who are a bit older, what would you say it is that allowed you listen, learn, and implement the common ideas or suggestions JBP has been talking about? Have Any of you had a tough time talking about something because it was a child of yours who proposed a particular topic, and instead of listening, maybe you were compelled to explain it to them on the spot because you knew and understood enough about it already? That's the scenario I see reflected when speaking with my dad. Curious to know what your experiences have been, much thanks.
Professor Peterson , I've been following all of your recent struggles with the totalitarian and authoritarian leftist thought police would just like to say like so many others have thank you for having the integrity to stand up for yourself and for all of us that value free speech this video absolutely blew my mind your explanations are brilliant, thorough and engaging. Thank you so much.
Kevin Cox I'm with you 100% Kevo...I'd take a fucking bullet for Jordan....fuck the Marxist..their day came and went...it's all over...majority of folks are level headed ! One or 2 generation will make all the difference....tyranny can only work on dumb people..I believe we are getting smarter...the last time anything had the impack of the WWW was the wheel...that's Titanic & Jordan is waking up millions of would be commi kids but he turns them around with pure logic...only a true genius can do that....cheers m8 Kevin Barry Lynch

Probably the best online psychology out there!
Amazing, I can sit on the bus on my way to the gym and listen to a university lecture touching crucial and meaningful topics, guided by one of the most prestigious thinkers of our time, for free! This is mind-blowing, also at face value nothing short of a miracle. The wealth of condensed wisdom here is almost pushing the limits of my gratitude. Thank you Dr Peterson.
for one, he maintained my attention till the end of the video which is rare for me. secondly, he gave me consecutive epiphanies that i may have achieved betterment within 56 minutes. thirdly, its a crime that there are only 916 like on this and a measly 41,284 views. im spreading this around.

While I've been exposed to all of the ideas expressed in this lecture (I am rather well-read), I've never seen anyone put all of these ideas together in one place, or express the concepts quite so clearly and succinctly. You're doing good work!
Check out his Maps of Meaning lectures here on YT… mind blowing.
charlie wired
It was certainly mind-blowing when I first encountered it, yes.
HenriFaust Ive read a lot of history, lit, and philosophy as well in my 46 years, but the way Dr Peterson weaves the threads together, in the order he presents the material, and in such plain easy to disseminate language was a real door opener for me with that particular lecture series… it helped me to digest concepts that I hadn't fully absorbed, comprehended, or retained well enough in solo study of the topics covered..
I wouldn't say he is the most eloquent lecturer Ive encountered,,, but he certainly is one of the most impactful Ive heard speak.
If only more Uni Profs had his level of intellect…. and the same dedication to their craft, as he.
charlie wired
I am the sort of person who reads faster than people speak and often gets bored listening to lectures. The only lectures that I find useful (from a perspective of time-management) are those with concurrent demonstrations (e.g. maths lectures), so I am looking into acquiring a copy Dr. Peterson's book.
In another video he mentions the book is online for free. The introduction to his Personality lectures if I'm not mistaken.. Also, reading is generally faster than listening to speaking, but youtube's double-speed function bridges that gap a little.
I've suffered from a depression since 2012. This video was uploaded on 2013. And I just found it today in 2018... Thank you Mr Peterson. You helped me a lot with this... I'm looking my way to get out from this misery... and if only I found this on 2013... but I guess it's better to be late than never... Thanks once again...
He has helped me more with my depression and self-esteem than years of therapy has.
Bang Baron, please look at the newest videos from Jordan Peterson and his daughter, Mikhaila Peterson. They have fixed their depression through diet--a carnivore diet. It's all over CZcams, and well worth a try if you're interested.
His daughter is not on a carnivore diet. She only eats beef. Nothing but beef. Every day. Carnivores eat a variety of meat. It's the only Peterson thing I don't follow.
@@ereintsful How are you separating "eats only beef" and "eats only a variety of meats" into two diets. If his daughter only eats beef it's still a carnivore diet. You dont HAVE to diversify your meat portfolio to be a carnivore. What a short-sighted and stupid comment.
I was just saying it was an all beef diet. I have no idea why you would be calling me stupid/short sighted etc. Calm down. I was just pointing out it was beef only, not a variety. Maybe you should think about what kind of person you are for reacting so strongly to a small comment. Your response is actually pretty disturbing. Are you okay? Maybe you had a bad day or something.
The depth of Dr. Peterson's thought processes is so remarkably clearly manifested in this talk! NO WONDER he chokes at such shallow questions as: "Do you believe in God?" And NO WONDER he responds with statements like "It depends on what you mean by believing and what you mean by God".
Man! After listening to this talk I can say that my perceptions toward MY reality and my interaction with MY world have been transformed. I can't even imagine how much of a wisdom lies around (in his biblical lectures and other lectures combined) on CZcams just because of this one person's channel.
Thank you, Dr. Peterson. Your importance in these troubled times cannot ever be overestimated. I feel sorry for all your critiques - from neo-marxist, postmodernists types to atheist, rationality-rules types.
one of the best lectures he has ever given. really sharp and incisive all throughout and demonstrating a superior verbal iq. it distills a lot of his points into this one lecture
Could this be Dr. Peterson's most brilliant speech ever?
I just discovered this video. This is an oldie as it's from 2009. I only recently discovered Dr. Peterson since 2018.
It's definitely a summary of his views and best philosophical/psychological insights.
Total proof that Dr Peterson is authentic, professing the same threads back then as what he still stands by and tasks about now …What a man, love him 👍
He just defined the meaning of life.
Love you so much Jordan! Such intelligence!!
This is just sooooo damn good - on so many levels. Thank you most sincerely, sir, for giving your gifts to the world..
The best part was Atlas' penis for all those girls to admire
lorem ipsum - Grow up!
Real gold in this lecture!
Yes, I've listened to it before and loved it, just listened again and learned something more. Highly recommend it. This is true intelligence, not only in content but in the lucidity of the presentation.
I have major depressive disorder and have been on medication for years. Listening to you has helped my mindset in way that could be a game changer for the battle of my mind. Thank you!
That was brilliant. As an artificial intelligence researcher, I found this argument to be valid and sound.
I would like to meet Dr. Peterson someday, and discuss AI in those terms.
I had the equivalent of a spiritual experience about 50 times throughout his Maps Of Meaning lectures.. You could set your watch to the frequency with which he blew my mind. A truly gifted and innovative thinker who can draw profound truths from a jigsaw amalgam of seemingly disparate and abstract ideas. (and make them reasonably comprehensible to the layman as well)
I had the same feeling! The funny thing is he mentions this experience in the first lecture, but it wasn't until the second time through that I realised exactly what he meant. I wrote down what he said exactly:
"sometimes you have an intuition of truth. it kind of goes click. It’s a pattern recognition mechanism. people generally have the feeling that when something like that happens, that something of truth has been revealed. A very common response I get from students is, i never told anyone anything they don’t already know. The reason for that is that like [carl] jung, I am drawing from archetypal structures. one of the cognitive phenomena that accompanies a spiritual awakening is the connection of many diverse phenomena into an overarching unity, a decrease in entropy. It’s a very powerful sensation. there’s other sources of what you might call spiritual experience, but that’s certainly one of them."
if you read ray kurzweil's how to create a mind you will get a further insight into this pattern recognising mechanism
francescop1 ^This!
Its funny in an academic world, that these days, is focused on producing mouthpiece activists and hack profs encouraging people to find their own "personal truths"
its refreshing to have someone like Dr Peterson … who concentrates on imparting universal and ineffable truths… which I would argue are the most important understandings we will ever possess..
Impossible to indoctrinate people with, you can only help people to realize these concepts themselves, arming them with tools which are indispensable to dissecting the human experience more fully.
MrKazezuma I am a programmer interested in AI and also found his level of abstraction interesting. I'd better say his description of human levels of abstraction.
Man, to think it took some SJW drama to find this youtube channel.
I just watched this entire thing and I was fascinated, there's a lot of things I recognise I wondered myself and then there's added to it, this is such clean cut honesty about how things just are and such. An interesting discussion going on here.
Also I know it was only very short, but when he started to talk about depression by the ending. Yeah I relate.
I suffered from depression and out of his four I fullfilled: No job, no friends and no relationship.
Jokingly I have liked to say that fantasy books and movies was my choice of drugs lol. Which you know, in a sense is true, those things actually gave me the satisfaction nothing else at the time could.
Thankfully, in complete opposit to real drugs, all this geekdomn, fantasy and books was restructive to me instead of destructive.
It gave me purpose, it inspired me to write a book which had a lot of feelings in it, it ensured I kept playing music as when I hear a movie theme I really like, I just gotta learn how ti play it! It made me go out to cons and meet people whom would later become my friends, it gave me something to look forward to in terms of new movies I could go to and be... Social with people!
I started to create cosplay, talk to all kinds of people having similar issues as me and acted like a open ear to many of them... It gave me purpose. And through this purpose and wishing to do even more, I fought myself up to get better.
I have said this many times, to a lot of people. If you are to get better, you have to want to get better, you have to decide for yourself. "I want to get better."
Because, if this decision is not made. There is nothing anyone can do, it all starts with yourself. You have to decide to get better yourself.
All a psykiatrist can really do is being a help to selfhelp, only you can make you get better when it comes to a lot of mental ilness's.
When people throw you a rope... You have to grab it, otherwise that rope is just useless. You have to decide... That you want to live, want to have a life.
And yes, it's hard, it's absolutely so very hard. But just think of all those things you could go watch and exsperience! So many wonderful things out there to explore and discover.
Now I study music therapy at UNI and of course, I have a heavy focus on how fictional stories and genneral communities centred around shared interests can be a way to deal with depression and various different mental illness's.
I still dress up and go to all the geeky movies with my friends, I still read all the Harry Potter books one every single year. I do this because it makes me happy.
I think I shall be adding this to the paper I am current writing, the thing about order and chaos.
Now I think about it, fantasy reading to me... Was something orderly in a very chaotic life at the time. I could always count on the escape of a book not having to deal with not having friends in elementary school.
So... a interest like this, and finding other with this shared interest can be a way to inject order into otherwise chaotic lives. I think I have made this argument before, I just havn't quite worded it like that.
I'm gonna do it now though... Stealy stealy.

Thank you for sharing your story.

Amazing. This lecture just gave me a huge boost of inspiration.
To much biblical stuff for me more on theosophy and the occult, may a bit to radical for him but I do enjoy some Of his lectures
If you are at a level that the difference between "to" and "too" is too much for you to comprehend or learn, I doubt that you can understand the concepts J. Peterson is speaking of.

I have heard a lot of very good speakers & lectures but this has to be 1 of the best & most important things I have ever heard. it all makes so much sense & i really thank you for the content. it's very important to me & I love these deeply grounded conversations
Have you seen Dr. Peterson's "Maps of Meaning" lecture series available on his YT channel? Amazing stuff and well worth the hours of investment in them.

You helped save my life. Thank you so much. My kids needed me to save my life.
Please never stop sharing your wisdom. THANK YOU
I have listened to this lecture at least 5 times and hear the dimensions of meaning unfold with each listen.
Superb lecture sir - you restore my faith in my profession. I can't help feeling that, rather than push the freshers into PC 'how not to rape' courses, delivered by 3rd rate failed sociologists and lecturers pretending to understand the post-structural wittering of Lacan, Irigaray and the rest of the french bullshit merchants, it would be a much better idea to roll this out as part of an orientation course, along with a similar treatment of critical thinking.
In fact right now - 2016 - this is more relevant and pressing than ever methinks.
but Mr Academic Hotpants you are the failed thinker if you dismiss those dudes merely for not making sense. that they don`t make sense is a major part of the point. get a mind Einstein get a mind. preferably an open one.
DMA Lewis
Postmodernists don't make sense because their concepts are, in and of themselves, nonsensical.
Yes, there are myriad ways of viewing almost anything. The issue comes when you begin saying that Any way of viewing something is just as relevant and just as valid as any other way, even if the way in question makes absolutely no sense.
These people unironically mimic the "philosophers" from Atlas Shrugged. While you unironically parrot the commentary of the people that followed their "ideas". Telling someone that their failure to understand the incomlrehensible mental masturbation of some French Nihilist Philosopher shows that they are not intelligent, and then calling them closed-minded. Good job showing your elitism there, buddy.
A lot of good points there horned one ! I`m not elitist. You are included.
Radically awesome!!! I can't get enough of this guy!!! Wish I could wrap my head around all his wisdom and teachings!!!
Live with a purpose...strive to be useful...THAT is how the dragon is slayed. JBP is fantastic!!!
Are you using slayed figuratively to indicate a theatrical triumph or as the now accepted alternative to slew?
@@misssarahashplant31I have a simple answer for you... I got my grammar wrong and it should have been slew.
This is probably the most powerful understanding of the story of the young man stroke dead when tempting to save the arch: "There are things you touch at your one peril, REGARDLESS of your intentions" so simple, so true !
38:54 Cuts straight to the heart. Powerful
Peterson with a beard is a badass
I listened to this lecture on the Big Ideas podcast yesterday. It made a huge impression on me. Well worth the time and paying attention to.
Come for the anti sjw rhetoric, stay for the brilliant existentialist philosophy
Good outcome I'd say.
Thank god I found you professor! This video really shed some light to the problems I'm sorting out with myself at the moment that resulted from multiple chaotic shocks from not achieving certain goals last year. It's strange how your lectures about nihilism, chaos and meaning echo exactly the nihilistic struggles I'm facing now and that I happened to find your channel right in the middle of this crisis I've been battling for a year now. Heartily support to you Dr. Peterson!
WOW!!!!! Life changing! The best lecture ever!!!!!
200 years from now, if we haven't blown ourselves into oblivion, physically or metaphorically, history will look at JBP as just as if not more influential than Nietzsche, Freud, Dostoyevsky, or any of the other philosophers that JBP references regularly. God bless this man.
God bless you Jordan Peterson!
Thank you Prof.Peterson for sharing your wisdom with the WORLD.Kind regards from Oz
It's such a delightful experience to listen to JP. He makes sense of so much of the world in such a receivable way. It makes me happy.
I realize I'm one who has desired too much order in my life to the point where I was tyrannized by it. Thankfully, God has given me balance by pairing me with a wonderful wife who adds chaos to my world or order, and I have added order to her overly chaotic life as well. We compliment each other.. to the glory of God. ❤❤❤
This man should be a cherished mind In these troubled times. They don't teach you these things anymore because they don't want you thinking
Some important things for me:
32:35 You can come back from underneath changed and find redemption. 33:17 Avoid toxic people, stop thinking you have the capacity to redeem somebody not after it.
33:53 Learn when you're wrong. 34:17 Story of my life: listening positively to people who are set to destroy me, using it to survive and to become better.
Thank you Prof. JP for helping people on checking their stances. Surely made me understand some important things. Wish you to recover fully. Don't rush, take your time.
How I would love Dr. Peterson to do a lecture series on Tarot imagery.. the tendency for most people is to think of the Tarot imagery as fortune telling devices, remnants of pure superstition… but in actuality its an entirely comprehensive and intricate esoteric world view.
Im sure our fearless frog could lay their secrets bare :)
charlie wired Indeed! The major arcana = archetypes
charlie wired I don't think anyone looks at them as anything else but a psychological device / expression but I agree that would be a great idea
You could check out Michael Tsarion on youtube. He covers some broadly connected themes as Peterson but a little more woo. He has quite a indepth series on the tarot.
Just as there were reasons not to touch the Ark Of The Covenant, there are mystical and eternal reasons we must not use chance and images, as they distort the Image in which we are created, and bring with it delusion and counterfeit.
Please burn.

You have enlightened me in so many ways ....
Read the bible, stop putting all your faith in man. You're only going to end up disappointed.
The Q+A session at the end is excellent. His perspective on depression strikes me as very accurate and helpful.
Thank you for putting this up for the world to benefit from. You saved me a lot of money by putting this on CZcams and I can't tell you how helpful it is to me.
I'm going through Dr. Peterson's lectures from oldest to newest.
Finished this one!
Absolutely Beautiful! One of the greatest teachers of our time. All you have to do is listen to be inspired. Thank you JP and CZcams.
I have been listening to Jordan constantly for about three weeks now ...to begin with I was amazed that he was able to articulate what I was feeling ..and I became obsessed with listening to him ...but soon I was finding I was listening to the same thing over and over and then today I listened to the same thing about order and chaos and suddenly I broke down because it suddenly hit me in a deep place...it got into my spirit and it has I think transformed me ……….but it took many hours of listening to him speak....what hit me was the part about how when you are doing something with meaning you are not aware of your self ….this I have experienced before ...but for many years I have suffered as a Christian with not knowing what God has for me...and then today I realised it was the thing that I loose myself awareness in.....thats what I should do....
This blew my mind, Im a high school drop out and this kept my attention the whole time
My favorite lecture of his. And thats saying a lot. This video manages to suspend me wholly every, single, time.
I discovered you a couple days ago thanks to one french YT channel
(since I'm french myself) and I'm so glad it happened.
My faith in humanity, while it never has completely ceased, was severely shaken this last decade.
But when I listen to you, its flame suddenly goes bright again.
Merci à vous Monsieur Peterson.
Merci de partager votre érudition avec nous.
C'est un honneur et un bonheur que de vous connaître.
i think i learned more watching this than all the schools i went to. love this guy
amazing. powerful and informative
One of the few CZcamsrs that I will not skip ads for. This man deserves every cent.
I am so grateful to Jordan Peterson for explaining our relationship with each other and the universe and making me feel good at the same time. I feel good because he is teaching what I wanted to learn and I can understand most of what he says.
I dreamt he died.
It was extremely sad, the moment I woke up this morning almost crushed me. The weight on my shoulders, _realising_ how important he was to me and also to others was crystal clear the second I came to be conscious. During the dream I wasn't particularly aware of the impact of his death.
I don't know why... but he was at a better place. He was in good shape and rather happy, relaxed, relieved from his pains and fights where I met him.
He is a legend. No matter what happens with him.
Peterson and his messages will not be forgotten.
I just heard he has Coronavirus.
This is why I decided to type that down. I hope he'll actually survive and I obviously don't claim any prophecy shit here.
But vision, to some extent in dreams, remains a mystery.
For a bit I felt similar after finding out his recent troubles. Then I realised that he has put so much information out there that in reality we don't need him any further. It is up to everyone of us now to implement and internalise his ideas. I am very glad he is fine and I am excited for his new ideas but what a legacy he has had as it!

That's right.
To quote the man:
"What if the story was something like this?
You have absolutely everything you need.
But you have to use all of it."
After all I'm just greatful, and believe it's up to each one of us to fulfill one's -self assigned- mission. You're more important than you think.
His actions are enough to make a grown man cry
Put some cell-shading and a couple of moving paintings on this and it could be a scene from Waking Life
And it would be the best damn scene in that movie!
Waking Life dreams about Jordan Peterson
Waking Life 2: Order and Chaos
Every time I come back to this video, I always learn several new things. This man’s depth and insight is incredible. He’s certainly helped me make my life better.
I agree this man is a genius. Listening to him even for a very short time is life-changing and life-saving.
Immensely valuable - Thank you Dr. Peterson
Paused the video when I realized...
...dragons are pretty damn weird reptiles.
For all those guilty of repeat bad relationships. Mr. Peterson provides invaluable insight starting at 32:45. Amazing lecture from an extraordinary human being.
I'm not religious but god bless you and your family Jordan. You are one of the most important humans of the 21st century HANDS DOWN.
Mircea Eliade was one of the greatest authors on this subject. Glad to see this is becoming accessible for the general public.
"You can find all sorts of undergraduates who are perfectly willing to restructure the international economic system who cannot keep their room clean"
Already laying the premise for his book
It's probably the best I've ever listened to. Thanks a lot, dr. Peterson.
Jordan speaks at a level which is unbound and truly awe inspiring. How can an individual be so beyond his time ,I am truly captivated by the level of his intellect and can hardly wait to one day become his predecessor and dream to one day combine all the great work he will leave behind for someone like me and others to pick up and follow this great man's legacy and bring the type of passion knowledge and wisdom to as many people as possible and leave this beautiful gift of a planet a better place than we found it .
I wish I had a teacher like you in university.
I could listen to Dr Peterson eating cornflakes.
Or reading the McDonald's menu
I know I know! My life has completely changed for the better thanks to the compassion and wisdom of JP. We are fortunate.

Hey! Yer a girl... I Assume.... I thought only white angry young males benefitted from JBP.
Thank you dr.Peterson for putting all these videos out! Saved many of us!
I love been watching all his olderer lectures as i am working backwards from his recent ones and interviews. So Much Great stuff I watch I had more time in the Day! I only watch maybe an hr Tv and read and listen to podcasts mostly, but Now Dr P’s monopolizing all my time lol Since i listen to him when I am most alert and mornings till late afternoons daily.
So pleased to have found your channel thank you for making this content
Nothing better to listen to as I clean my chaos ridden house with portals everywhere.
God damn it, with this amount of revelations, it's so hard not to go into "teary eyes" mode.
The sense he outlines somewhat easily is hitting me continuously like a unstoppable truck.
You've invigorated a passion to learn about many new subjects and work on myself in New ways. Thank you so much for putting this into the world
My cat watched this.
It's a gold-hoarding, virgin-snatching dragon now.
That means you've gotta confront and slay it now =P
Beautiful. Thank you so much.
And don't know how many times I watched this video. This man is outstanding!
Wow!!! Dr Peterson excellent!!!
I truly love this man
Wow is right. This is so important to understand, especially now that humans can do so much damage. Thank-you for individuals who connect to and follow their passion and tell the truth about an individual life being important... So good to hear. Now I have to pay more attention.... Thank-you
This video is so awesome for laying his comments over any track, especially soulful deep music. I've been picking random samples and soundbites and playing them over my music. It's weird because you never know what he's going to say next but it always fits perfectly and gives the song a dimension of power that brings me to tears.
It's more than the fact that "Jordan Peterson knows things." What is powerful about his lectures is that much of it is stuff you already know, but hadn't been able to put into words or coherent thought. That's why when he says things, you nod and say "That's right! I always knew it, just couldn't say it and bring it into my world."
I think that's the "a-ha" moment when you really agree with someone, not when you say "you're right," but when you say, "That's right!" I know from my own experiences that I know I've really connected with someone when they say to something I've said, "That's right!" And, to your comment here, I say, "That's right!"
