Psychology Professor Dr. Jordan B. Peterson talks about the mystical experience people tend to have after taking substances like Ayahuasca. These experiences can result in permanent personality transformations. But why?
Dr. Peterson's new book is available for pre-order:

Normal parents: My kid is so cute!
Jordan Peterson: My child possesses a very organised psyche.
LOLZ!!!!!!
What even is normal?
@@Beastmaster1221 Not sure what country you are in, but it almost certainly has laws and regulations. That's a good starting point.
I'd feel so proud if my parents said this😂😂
But his kid is cute tho...
Man, I'd do anything to sit in a class where these topics are being discussed, let alone being discussed by someone like Jordan...
Iwasthewalrus Indubitably!!
I went to ICPR 2016, a research conference on psychedelics, and it was one of the most inspiring and interesting events I've been to. I believe all readings can be found on here at OPEN foundation.
Iwasthewalrus move to Canada then Haha
Or you could just watch a bunch of his lectures on CZcams.
You basically just did.
He always walks around like he’s worried the FBI is gonna open up the doors any second so he’s gotta get this information out as soon as possible.
lol
He feels that way.
It's because there is too much to say and it's difficult to explain with words
It's probably at least half true
You can bet the feds are watching this guy
“hey class we’re going on a fieldtrip”
*pulls out dmt*
Well now I have taking DMT with Jordan Peterson on my bucket list followed by senor Rogan 😂
"And I have a friend of mine joining us to0"
* door opens, joe rogan walks inside *
"What's up freak bitches!!! "
* The whole class goes nuts *
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
with the frizz? no way!
And that day 47 students were overcame with the healthy, destructive confusion of cosmic consciousness

His students clap at the end of a regularly scheduled lecture. Holy balls man.
I'd clap too if I fucking heard someone lecturing on drugs like that
The Asians at my univerisity do that with every lecture they go to , it's quite funny
SelfReferencingName Racist!
halfstep44 Yeah, I guess. So?
SelfReferencingName they do sometimes in UK if a class is particularly funny or engaging. I used to thank the dinner lady for my food. Reverence is a good thing!

Hey that’s my name 😂
@No One Your mother does 😉
Education system: Don't do drugs kids!
Jordan Peterson: Hold my lobster

Love this lmao
these types of comments are getting old as fuck man
Hold my benzos

God can you imagine having the privilege to take a class where the students clap after the lecture? I want this so very badly...
I was thinking the same thing. And then having him say "see you Tuesday", must be nice to not have terrible professors.
mrpipps90 kinda the same thing as this CZcams video, minus a test in a week.
A little on the nose.
+mrpippd90 Well, it's Jordan Peterson.
I've been to a couple of lectures like that... I study Physics though so it's different :/

I had the heartbreak of a lifetime about 6 years ago. For 2 years i was in deep depression. Then one day, a good friend and i decided to randomly do psilocybin mushrooms just to "have some fun". That day ended up being the turning point in my life.
@James Allen i saw that happiness and fullfilment was not to be found by extracting it from other people, but in myself and only myself. I also could see that i had more potential than i've thought previously, and that i was not living up to it. And i realized that i had not been very nice to my mother when i was a young teen, which developed into a desire to be a better son. I saw glimps of how life could be if i just adjusted a few things in my life, and so i did. Things have not been "perfect" since. But certainly better. Way better.
@@Janne-k- thank you for sharing
Yeah I learned with shrooms the hard way that less is more. Took half an ounce once and got stuck in a time loop for 12 hours and was freakin tf out, and I took 3.5 grams once and then a storm hit and my power went out and I had a pretty sh*tty, anxious trip. Then recently I took 1 gram on a beautiful spring day and had one of the best trips of my life and definitely the best trip of my life. The view of my backyard and our community pond was like something out of a Dr.Suess book the trees looked so f*ckin crazy. *(XD)*
@@combatwombatstl5598 bro I think the trip is still going on, do you not research things before you take them? Literally rule #1 of psychedelics is to always take them when in a positive state of mind.
@@Janne-k- you saw happiness? Can you elaborate?
"They said they died, that's this..." **shows image of a dead body**

😂😂😂
That was edgy. And not cool at all
@@Tybonhomme You're annoying
king aha fr
I took 5g once psilocybe and i felt like i knew the meaning of life but couldn't put it in words. Life changing indeed. Ego went away. Stuck with me and i did it 15 years ago.
Same here while I was in Amsterdam. Where did you take yours?
you forgot your pen
I took mushrooms didn’t have a breakthrough per say but it made me go pick up and buy a guitar which I still play today. I was suicidal and still am and somehow playing this instrument gives me a purpose when I had none prior.
@Space Munky you cant say that, everyone reacts differently to psychedelics. I was pretty stable on my first trips at around 130micro tabs, experiencing the fast thoughts and visuals. But after a few trips, they got drastically stronger. I had 2 complete ego deaths, (not remembering my name, what being a human means, not realizing that im not always thinking like that etc) once on a 300micro LSD tab, not very surprising. But also another time when i took half a 1p-LSD tab (50mikro). I dosed that low because the previous trips were very horrifying and it always taking me a full night of sleep before being able to speak coherently (which i couldnt for up to 2 days most of the time), but that didn't stop me from losing my shit, having strong visuals and being in other peoples minds. I do have a history of mental illnesses tho and am emotionally unstable if i consume any drugs, which is why i refrain from all psychedelics
Friendly Boo how much did you take?
Jordan peterson: have you heard of psychedelics
Joe rogan: hold my dmt
James Park lol. This has me dyjng
🤣😭🤣😭🤣
Joe Rogan "LIED" tut tut tut
If you relate DMT to Joe Rogan, you know nothing about DMT. He is their for your entertain for a talking point, that is it! Never live life through another person's perception of reality. You will end up depressed with why you can't connect with the world you create, and for what? Being entertained away from reality that you live?
James Park oh stfu we’ve seen that comment a thousand times now.
I suffered the borderline disorder for over 23 years. With so much anxietyNot until I came across psilocybin mushrooms treatmentPsilocybin treatment actually saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms
Microdosing helped me get out of the pit of my worst depressive episode, a three year long episodeenough to start working on my mental health
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Spain. Really need

@@CollisionScott Yes he's Dr.Raymycolx
they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here. and mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on this planet i wish people would all realize. they could solve a lot of problems, more than just mental treatments, environmental clean up; the possibilities are endless with fungus
I took some DMT and encountered a being called a Joe Rogan .
Nice one.
Has anybody here actually experienced breakthroughs ?
@@trevdogbunkers1048 I myself have never tried DMT. I think there are probably ways to get the same experience of DMT that just require some work. Like some breathing exercises and meditation.
That DMT was bunk. If you saw Terence McKenna, that's another story. Rogan is a nonce.
@@kirkjohnson9353 Nope. The visions are far too intricate. Visions from breathing, yoga, fasting etc, are quite LO-FI in comparison. LSD is reel to reel film, DMT is 8K High Definition. If that even makes sense.
Every time Jordan Peterson says DMT a Joe Rogan gets his wings.
Best line ever. All the things i love in one sentence
It is literally fucking inconceivable that you guys have the privilege of having such an eccentric, passionate and knowledgable professor to teach you seriously cool stuff whilst LIVE at university, in lectures.
So cool and thank you for sharing.

@@bidewu563 Wouldn't recommend buying it, try extracting it yourself from plant material, e.g. mimosa hostilis. Cybs' Hybrid ATB 'Salt' Tek is a good one. Very easy to follow.
This is true for me also. It made me realise the deep need for connection with others and that, quite frankly, I've neglected this a lot in my life. Humans need each other and to love.

Hahahaha
😂😂😂I felt like she was religious or something and didn’t want to open her mind to psychedelics only because that’s the same reaction I’ve ever gotten out of a super religious person. I’ve learned to leave them be, and especially if they’re happy w their beliefs
@@joshuajames6977 probably just another class though
I can't remember the last time I climbed a tree. It's like one day I just stopped doing it.
Climbing trees is dope
WildSandwich there is a story of which I can't remember the name that consists of elderly people in a retirement home that are sneaking out to go play childish games from their days of youth. Eventually, I believe they escape and go play and when they are caught by the nurses, they have magically been turned into the children forms again. It's worth looking into, certainly, considering the parallelism with your story.
It's the best compound exercise that I've found. My dad questioned it then 3 months down the line he up and said "damn you got big" It will engage all muscle groups, plus like Jordan said, it's deep in there.

I just randomly click on his videos, and I've never been disappointed.
Joe Rogan: "you ever try DMT?"
Jordan Peterson: "the thing about psychedelics is that it has a tremendous effect on the psyche structure of a homosapien. The literature on this is clear"
Based on how much info we’ll most likely be able to uncover through research, I honestly believe studying psychedelics will be one of the major turning points in history.
What makes you think that? What do you think it will uncover not already spoken about by philosophers ?
@@20FreeWill We're in the infancy of the scientific study of the human brain. We still barely understand how it works and it's still mostly a mystery. Philosophy is useful, but it's not science.
@@sondre5174 it's the science of thought. I dont know what you're expecting from science
1life2live 84 To start, I expect new treatments for mental illness. But that is only scratching the surface. You can’t philosophize yourself to new medications, because inventing new ones require studying and understanding how the brain works chemically.
@@sondre5174 psychedelics aren't science. What do you know about science ? What do you know about philosophy? What qualifies you to draw comparisons? I dont think you really know what philosophy is
I don't personally engage in drug use of any kind, but I find the experiences fascinating. The fact that a substance can produce such profound, personality shifting changes is truly amazing. It's well documented that human perception is incredibly flawed and that no two people experience reality in the exact same manner. Who's to say that our sober reality is the only truth; sober reality merely serves as a ubiquitous framework that allows people to communicate what they are experiencing, with some degree of congruency to those around them. This idea is mind boggling. The fact that drug induced realities may not be false hallucinations, but rather an alternative perception of reality, that simply goes unnoticed in sober life. We aren't able to see radio waves? How is that idea different from the atomic shift you feel during a DMT trip. Does anybody have any other ideas relating to this? I would love to hear them.
60 Second Success This isn't so much my own idea or concept, but I used to have an interest similar to yours. In following this interest, some of the reading and experimentation I did in regards to LSD was highly intriguing - many of the sources I looked at seemed to suggest that LSD opened up neural pathways (and leaving them slightly open after the trip) that are usually closed, essentially meaning that it removes the "filters" that define our perception of the world, hence explaining the way one views the world whilst under the influence, and also after the "trip" itself. After all, it's been recorded that people who've done acid in the past are certainly more creative in their thinking than those who haven't (eg. Steve Jobs) This in turn also supports your hypothesis - that sobriety is simply a framework or a "jumping off point" for people to base their views of the world in and is only an alternate way of viewing reality. Anyways, your comment was pretty damn interesting, just saying :)
Huzzamossi That's quite interesting. Those findings would match up with what Jordan Peterson said about hallucinogens (Psilocybin?) producing up to a single standard deviation increase in openness. This is pure speculation, but I wonder if there is a correlation between hallucinogen use and intelligence. Let me elaborate. Intelligence is an aspect of trait openness. I don't think it is too far fetched to assert that openness is correlated with hallucinogen use, as it involves trying something foreign to many individuals. But nested within this, is the idea that intelligence is one of the driving forces behind how open an individual is. So this begs the question, 'Are intelligent people more likely to do hallucinogens?'
+60 Second Success
Sober reality is reality because it is true, you can see it, you can feel it, you can experience and recreate it and cross reference with other people if they do the same.
As soon as you use the word "reality" you draw up the question of what constitutes reality. Perceptual reality, sober or otherwise, is all we can "truly" measure. And even now, as you read this, lurks the "reality" that I may just be a figment of your imagination!
*touches the mirror*
Have you ever had a dream, Neo...
PS: If you ever do decide to take any drug, go for mushrooms (or truffles). I promise you, under the right conditions, it will be the most profound and eye-opening experience you will ever have.
For those concerned about the students leaving:
They are probably leaving because it is near the end of the lecture. They have other classes to get to or they might need to catch a bus.
Just chill out. Sheesh.
Dude fuck the bus when ur teacher is taking about dmt lol... But your right there are SOME excuses for leaving early but still like bitch sit down u got 5 min to spare. I guarantee that bitch is some form of sheep thottie
flowerz bro what?? I’ve had to leave in the middle of a lecture before due to a random emergency. You don’t know what’s going on in their lives so shut the fuck up
classes? what do they studie? manure?
i dunno whats the point in talking about these topics since it doesn't matter anyways, your experience is no my experience and it doesn't deal with the consequences of reality itself, so it is easily dismissed as storytelling, fantasy or just not true!! I don't understand peterson, what do you want to share, say it like it is, but no blablablabla...he's not bullshitting or nothing, he just needs to talk different and make his speeches shorter.

Psilocybin helped me overcome excessive self consciousness/shyness back in the 70's. I live in the Deep South where it grows wild in cow pastures.
Mike Lowrey BB buy the spores, or find someone in America who can buy them leaf ally and send them to you and learn to grow them if you can’t find a dealer.

@Mike Lowrey BB there are local wild varieties in the UK.
@@joshuajames6977 I didn't know that they grew that far North...maybe a different variety. Down here the most common potent strain is Psilocybe Cubensis. I'd heard of Liberty Caps in the Pacific Northwest but they don't culture in ungulate manure as far as I know.
Ironic they are growing wild in the deep south.

Joe rogan wants to know your location
First thing I thought after getting high on DMT was "this is the place where we come when we die, i was here before, I remember", so yeah... also it erased my anxiety for several months.
Same here. It was one of my first coherent thoughts in the trip. I was here before, and I'll be here again.
That was exactly what happened to me. I sat there in a room with these things for what felt like forever but no time at all, just thinking “why is this so familiar?” Then all at once it hit me and I said “I’m home.” Bang trip done and I started going back down. I can’t explain what I saw or what I felt considering it felt more real than the life I’m currently living.
@@bentoomet8805 I have not gone a day in the year without thinking about what happened to me
So your anxiety is back?
@@TG-kt9vg you can think that, but if you haven't done it you cant imagine. It's such an alien and unique experience for everyone. There are common threads and feelings in trips, but that's just the stuff you could remember. There is vast information that is lost when you come out of it
This is an inspiring intelligent teacher that would make you want to come to classes and never miss a class.
Psilocybin saved my life. I was addicted to heroin for 15 years and after Psilocybin treatment I will be 3 years clean in September. I have zero cravings.
This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again again but it’s just so hard to source out of there.
Yes, bergwilly11_
A lot of people have testified about this and I really want to give it a shot. I put so much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels
The Trips I've been having have really helped me a lot,I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
Dmt was the best trip I had. It was an amazing experience.
I’m so impressed that a man such as Jordan has the mental capacity to take topics and relate them in ways that are educational.
I’ve used mushrooms and it 100% changed my life. It made me more emotional, more compassionate, more open and made me not care as much about what people think about me, it really gave me a reset and a completely new view on life, and afterwards I had no desire to do them again (I did them twice in a very short period of time) because I had gotten everything I needed from them.
UndeadKennedy that’s exactly what I need bro
It's the same with me. In two decades i took mushrooms a total of maybe 7-8 times. After the first few times i didn't really discover new things, but i use them occasionally anyway for the same reason that people go on vacation.
Psilocybin has been proven to clinically save people from depression (who are tolerant to anti-depressant drugs) in lab studies. Whether or not you believe all the hippie BS, something to discover inside of yourself through deep meditation EXISTS, or use a drug to force you into a different controllable conscious "state", through which you discover yourself objectively for the first time. Or you just trip balls if you're below 200iq
@@TheTurtleOfGods Don't think psilocybin is a magic cure or something. If you have mental problems of any kind you should be careful with psychedelics. Yes I can see absolutely how they can cure you for life but also how they can traumatise you. Start in a low low range and move your way up taking tolerance in account for medical purposes. if you want entertainment eat multiple sheets of stamps at once, I don't give a shit. it's not like it will physically harm you.
Everything he's saying here is true. There is something out there we can commune with by using these substances properly and safely. These entities are not malicious, at least not the ones i met, and they teach you reality shattering truths specific to you and only you. It's a strange comfort this stuff brought me. Thank you for bringing this lecture to the fore, both to this channel and Mr. Peterson
I learn more from one of his 7 minute lectures than I did in a 2 year community college psychology program
That’s bc psychology is a crack head science and no one really knows anything about it.
geezusispan no where I’m just being a troll lmao.
geezusispan sigmund freud. Crack head scientist (literally) also most well known psychologist of all time. Therefore psychology is a crack head science. End proof. Also if you look at a list of IQ scores by major psychology is the second lowest scoring major next to social sciences. Which I don’t get because psych pretty much is a social science let’s be honest.
What did you learn?
ontariobuds he learned nothing at all. He is really saying that this is the only lecture he has enjoyed on the field of study he likes. This is only because it’s talking about drugs, which he is interested in

"It transports them to another world, and that's how they interpret it."
Please note how he did not discredit the physical existence of this said other world.
I took DMT, let me tell you it's more real than life as we know it on earth, I could feel and see everything and talk without the use of my body, it felt like it lasted for ages plus when I left my body I remember thinking I'm that far away from my body I'll never be able to find it again, so humbling yet I don't have the knowledge to really explain it properly, I can say hand on heart I now know it's definitely not the end when we die, I only wished I could explain it so you could understand what I mean because I can't give it justice, I haven't had it since because it's not something you need to take very often but I'm looking forward to when I do have another go when the time is right. I'd recommend it to everyone, love is the key, that's what I got out of my experience. Love is the real power.
You described what is pretty much indescribable quite well. If you know you know
I've taken dmt and I certainly thing death will be the end of YOU as YOU know YOU

I've done it many times.. its powerful stuff.. I've met the creator.. she was wonderful. She said we don't die in her world we are an energy she created.. she introduced me to someone I can't remember who but I went to shake his hand and realised I don't have any 🤣 I was like a ball of light. she showed me a past life I lived it was so real.. more real than earth and unless people have done it.. they won't understand what that means 🤣 and the feeling u get over there... wow... like being hugged from the inside out with love and peace and pureness.. its the best 🤣❤ I would say for anyone who can get it... if u wanna sneak peak of whats on the other side.. u won't be sorry 🤣❤
Every comment in this thread is pure gold.
Did...did someone leave while Jordan freakin' Peterson was talking about psychedelics? WHAT?!!!
They had to go get some DMT
They had to go and tidy up their bedroom.
They were a tardo sheep.... lmao probably thought he was crazy lmfaoooo
Its just a regular class to them. Shit happens, bathroom break?
They were probably tripping
i took acid about 25-30 times from about 71-74, (aged 16-19). i'd love to do it again, this time paying more attention to the "spiritual" and the obvious mutated awareness aspects. one thing, you cannot undo where you've been and what you experienced. those perceptions will stay with me as long as i have a memory. same with mescaline, but the trip is somewhat different. i loved those substances and the altered state that came with them.
jean-pierre mercier What do you mean by "can not undo where you've been and what you experienced"? I'm not sure I understand.
jean-pierre mercier people that do Coke or drink alcohol can't imagine what these substances do when they're clean and efficient? What does that mean?
What's mescaline like? I've only done tryptamine psychedelics.
jean-pierre mercier I believe with non tryptamines (forgot the other name lol) you have more of a spiritual introspective trip that isn't as visual, I'm not positive on that though I have only done lsd myself
Daniel Springer they're called phenethylamines. Mescaline, Adderall, meth, bath salts, mdma, they're all based off the dopamine molecule. CGkid has a video on mescaline where he describes the differences. From what I can tell, phenethylamines are actually less internal experiences, whether it's spiritual or not is subjective.
Psilocybin and dmt are both tryptamines but as far as I know, LSD is neither really a tryptamine or a phenethylamine- some say it's neither, some say it's both. It's a lysergamide.
how could you leave this lecture early?! jordan is absolutely brilliant, and absolutely fantastic at presenting
I rarely label myself in any type of fan status, but I have had dreams of meeting Jordan Peterson. I would be completely honored to be a part of one of his classes.
I really wish the world had more people like this Professor.
I crave intellectual reason and conversation like those topics which Dr. Peterson speaks of.
Love this man, he's been such an inspiring influence in my life.
girl at 1:00 : OK ima gonna try this right now..bye
Love Jordan Peterson. Awesome teacher with a very interesting understanding of life, history, and human psychology.
I've only done DMT once but it was probably the single most mind blowing profoundly humbling experience I've ever had. I only remember bits and pieces but what I can remember is seeing the evolution of man play out before my very eyes. I could see sound travel through space and see 3d objects from angles and frames I couldnt explain, like seeing things inside out, upside down, folded out like origami... it was incredible.
I didn't feel a presence there, I dont think I took enough of it. I would love to try it again if I could ever get my hands on it.
That's a good description of a pre-breakthrough trip. Unless you are lucky or do it with someone who knows how to prep it correctly you're not likely to break through. It took about 4 times of experimentation with temperature and how to breath it before we can breakthrough every time. I've only experienced 1 "spirit" at a time, but my trip buddies see up to 3 at a time. That consistency between our trips is such a weird thing.
I've been embraced by god. I've seen an angel prance through heaven as tubes of lights flow in her wake. I'm atheist but I understand what he means when he says "real" because damn it's as "real" as love is.
It's such a profound experience but many will just look at you and think negatively like, "Uhh, druggy bad".

Transition is effortless, at 2nd hit i was already halfway out, could feel realities overlapping, relaxed and just put this sim on pause and got up there. Cant put it in words how amazing it was. Even now it feels like i did it just a moment ago, its been about two years now, got my hands on 1gram again😁😆
@@liber1993k Everyone I know that's done it, myself included, doesn't feel a need to? It just doesn't seem like the 2 should overlap. Like LSD and shrooms, they're too similar. Almost concerned they'd interfere with eachother rather than enhance eachother. But I'm always down to experiment so maybe next time. One person "candy flipped" dmt but it was their first time so they didn't have anything to compare it against.
Bro,did you just manage to experience hyper-dimension travel?🤯🤯🤯. You probably saw/experience 4D or higher dimensions.
"THEY" don't come to you until you've gone to their realm several times....THEN *They* show up.
I love this, I'm seriously absolutely no expert on psychedelics or pyschology but the fact he's so honest about knowing nothing but not instantly writing it off, very refreshing.
Because he’s intelligent enough to know he knows nothing. And many people should understand this
Jordan Peterson is the man, hands down.
(puts hands down)
I agree the exact opposite of a physical alpha male!
I wish I had been able to take one of Peterson's courses. Super interesting and engaging professor. Hope to see you back soon Dr. Peterson.
I love the respect the students show their professor.
Going to one his lectures is like attending a show.
How many professors get an applause at the end of their university class?
Ummm... One👍😊
Few
This guy is golden. I always look up his name and click on random videos during my breaks or through out the day. He provides so much insight on so many different subjects that listening to him even once a day will make you better.
I wish you a speedy recovery Sir.
DMT was the singlemost trippy experience of my life other than being out in the wilderness....I smoked it 4-5 times one night each time blasting off into another dimension....I saw a Hindu like goddess waving an enormous flag with the ocean frothing and churning in it....at one point I heard a sound that I KNEW in my bones I had recorded in my brain from when I was a child and it was blasted from my subconscious from the DMT. Finally when the sun came up I smoked it outside looking at a tree and that tree changed so much in the next few minutes and a huge translucent ace of spades shape came through it and over me
Funny thing is about this experiences is that they are like dreams and the most important parts of these experiences are not what you can put into words.
When you tell others about it, it serves them no good, but it let's you recreate/relive the experience a bit.
Roman Fox thats what happens after you do dmt, you cant formulate emotions into words.
Where can I get DMT??
@Wayne H feel the same way lol
@Wayne H Gotta check that out. I'm way too interested in complicated things (mundane stuff ppl tell me is boring, nothing new) and it kinda pushes me away from life into my own mind.
2:12 ABSOLUTELY! I have always told people that the first time I did mushrooms it changed my life. It completely changed my psychology and outlook on life, and for the better. I felt the euphoric effects of feeling "good" for months afterward, and since then I've had a more open mind in general. However, I've taken mushrooms a few time since then (only a few times within a decade) and the experience was "fun" and stretched my mind a bit... but that first time really changed my life. Granted, I was a judgmental asshole before I took shrooms - and shrooms showed me the light and turned me around. They didn't make me a new person, but they made me a better person. To this day, I say, "mushrooms saved my life". But I don't support doing them often... they mess with your mind, and your mind needs to be treated with respect, so treat the shrooms with respect.
Kevin Steffanson Agree with you man, a life changing experience. It somehow silences/kills the ego and by that makes you aware of a different dimension of being
I feel like that's the only way to explain shrooms or psychedelics in general,you feel like a new person when it's over
Used shrooms over a dozen times, concerts and parties and such. Always a good time for me. But the one time i took some while camping, it was a straight up religious experience. I was swimming in a lake surrounded by mountains, i never felt closer to God and nature. It was a profound experience when i was open to having it. Definitely changed me forever and for the better.
I used to drink a lot of absinthe and it definitely had a long-term impact (for the better). It is strange how psychiatrists never take it into account alongside other psychedelic drugs, since the effects are quite different from substances such as LSD or magic mushrooms. Turns out that at least I'm highly susceptible to thujone and I started seeing the future much more frequently and precisely as a consequence, alongside with theories linked to quantum physics and psychology. I don't care about people's ridicule and skepticism in this regard. They don't have a fucking clue anyway.
I had a similar experience with MDMA. Obviously not a psychadelic but the 1st time definately changed my life
Wow! What’d I do to be able to sit in on a lecture of his. He’s a work of art the way he shares information.
Imagine this being your university lesson. Amazing, much respect for dr. Peterson.
Joe Rogan: *Heavy Breathing*
High school: There will be an exam next week covering the past month of curriculum.
College: This is a great example of an archetype representative of psychedelic experiences. See you next Tuesday.
Oh my gosh, how can people leave this amazing lesson? :o
Great lecture🙌🏻
Mushrooms helped me cope with immense feelings of grief and loss of connection with society or happiness. I thought nothing in the world could give me purpose in life after losing my 15 year old brother. No job, no education, no woman, no amount of money or anything could ever bring me back to accept this reality. After experimenting with mushrooms my life has turned a total 360.
Name lol
180*
@Arthur A.
Yes, because replacing a mindfuck with another is such a good idea.
Arthur A.
bible = jewish bullshit
@@arthura.2587 I've only taken shrooms so i can't comment on other psychedelics, but all they do is show you your true self, uncover your subconscious. I think that the things people see on DMT trips are archetypes that are deeply embedded in our subconscious, that's why so many people report the same visions. The bible is also full of archetypes, which Jordan Peterson has talked about before, so the two are not that dissimilar and they uncover the same truths, and so there's no reason to attack psychedelics like you do.
The fact he saved his son's childhood art and shares it with the world warms my heart.
Thank you for this.
I have to get up for work tomorrow at 4am. It’s 10:50 am and I’m watching this.
Worth it.
How lucky are his students, I hope theyre grateful
Had my first psilocybin mushroom experience the other day at age 18. Was very beautiful and calming and just made me appreciate the finer details in life. Also when I closed my eyes I could see major scenes unfolding and people.
I see you’ve written this comment 4 years ago. How are you doing now?
@@Chloe-qd5vx haha wow. I forgot I’d ever written this comment!
I’m doing well enough thank you. Just been recovering slowly from long Covid complications.
I ended up taking LSD around the same time shortly after the mushrooms and LSD was not for me. Did not enjoy it.
Haven’t had any psychedelics since. No hate to anyone who uses them I’ve just chose to remain sober on all drugs for almost 3 years bow
He’s damn right about the blasted out of your body part, was not prepared for that part
Such a good lecturer. I love you Jordan. You'll be back in some interesting way. Take very good care of yourself... To be out of the limelight if certainly a good opportunity to gather new information.....
psilocybin mushrooms helped with my social anxiety and depression tremendously!!!!
1:03 you can almost hear his heart breaking as the girl left his class.
I love what JP is doing by putting his lectures online. It's like a small bite of college level information for you to chew on and digest at your leisure.
he did a good job presenting the information. i genuinely like jordan b peterson.
Theres a really good documentary on DMT called "DMT: The spirit molecule", i believe it's still on Netflix for those who want to know more about it.
A year or two ago, I smoked weed for the first time in years. What's crazy is, I smoked about an eighth and after a couple days of smoking weed, I stopped smoking cigarettes for good. I had picked up smoking cigarettes when I quit weed for career reasons and because I missed the act of smoking. I don't know why but after smoking that eighth in a couple days (a lot for someone with 0 tolerance), I had no interest in cigs, no desire for one and no temptations to pick another one up.
Loantastic that happened to me too :)
Loantastic weed can’t compare to psychedelics but glad you quit smoking cigs man
@@glitchinthematrix555 It's the entrance to the branch of psychedelics, absolutely. A lot of people who have no tolerance tend to have psychedelic-like experiences. Admittedly, despite its rapid onset, marijuana is one of the weakest mind-altering drugs; but, that's what makes it so easy to work with.
my goodness, getting applause at the end of a lecture..fantastic.
I can't comprehend how people were LEAVING a lecture like this. I wish I had their opportunity to be there in the first place.
If you like this talk look up a guy named Terence Mekenna
and check out his book Food of Gods, it's great
The cia agent? No thanks.
Oh, jeez.. sorry.. I mean, ‘the expert’? The big daddy? Of shamanic psychedelics?
Some North American claiming to be the authority on everyone else’s culture and everything else?
Weaponized hallucinogens.
Terrance McKenna the CIA agent ALL MY KEKS xDDD
U mean the god father of DMT
"How the hell dya account for that?!"
Jordan Peterson
Jordan is one of the defining cultural intellectuals of our time, its truly a pleasure to be born into the same era of thought as Jordan
Love this 😀
I remember clapping once at the end of a typically scheduled lecture and everyone thought I was weird.....
Alex Greys painting "Gaia" is very similar to Jordan Peterson's son's drawing at the end.
I would love to have taken this course. A lifetime of knowledge in a few lectures.
But who ever thanks the cameraperson 🙏🏼 god bless you. I am so grateful all these lectures were filmed.
it's probably a service provided by the school, i'd imagined they are bless by their pay check
I tried both DMT and Psilocybin when I was younger and it's had seemingly permanent and profound impacts on my creativity and imagination. I mean it's had huge impacts on many other parts of my life, almost exclusively positive. However, as someone that loves to make music, the incredible state of my imagination is why I will always hold these psychedelic compounds with the utmost respect. Honestly one of the biggest mysteries out there, I love to learn about all facets of the universe and honestly the content of this experience if by far the most mysterious, mystical, and insane stuff out there.
Sorry for the little rant, just my two cents. Please do your research and be careful. If you're watching this video you're on the right path for that already, make sure you educate your friends and loved ones as well! Unfortunately far too little people who venture into the realm of drugs do so with intellectual intent and it's important to promote safety, it's all too sad to see someone get sucked into the void, but likewise it's also incredible to see someone turn their life around with psychedelia. I should quickly note I quit smoking cigarettes with Shrooms- I unsuccessfully tried many other ways, but a dreadful shroom trip is what lead me to quit for good. Tobacco is a serious bitch to quit, so I am not kidding when I say that when done with the right mindstate the neuro-medical values of these plants is absolutely unparalleled. I also saw the most hardcore tobacco smoker (like i'm talking full bowl massive bong rips as often as possible) who was adamant to smoke to death completely drop smoking on the spot with (I would assume a larger) dose of LSD.
It's so easy to rant about these things.. There is just so much potential in them, it is very exciting to see this gaining momentum in the scientific and intellectual realms, as that is where these compounds thrive. Seriously, the amount of knowledge that can be unlocked from a molecule.. I mean it must be researched!
How young?
"And so... we'll see you Tuesday."
What a amazing teacher! I was intrigued and captivated! We need more teachers like him! I dont mean to lionize him, but damn all his videos get the same reaction from me and from others!
I graduated from The University of Toronto about 3 years before this video was taken. When I graduated very few students had laptops, most were writing notes by hand. What a different world. Love ya., Prof. Peterson.
Can you imagine having a guy like this as an instructor?! I would ace every test...
I am so looking forward to my first DMT experience!
talk with some people who have done it. From my observations psychedelics irreversibly change your personality. It also makes it MUCH harder to differentiate between dreams, thoughts, and reality for the rest of your life. I see that as a negative but most don't. Up to you
Bill Seabolt you're right, I was blinded in darkness but you have shown me the light.
You're generalising quite a lot there +Bil Seabolt. Substances like stimulants (eg. Cocaine) are harmful, it's just that the shit they put in them (like whatever people cut their coke with, etc.) that makes them far more harmful. Yes, specific psychedelics are used to treat brain disorders - but not all, just saying "Psychedelics" isn't particularly helpful - kinda like me saying "stimulants are used every morning by most of America" when I'm in fact referring solely to Coffee. I agree with you that psychedelics are great if you don't act like an idiot and know your shit, but saying if it affects you badly only if you're a bad person is total BS, I've known plenty of naive, nice people who've had somewhat bad experiences on DMT. It's all a matter of preparation and expectations ynow?
I'll admit, I was overzealous in saying the part about refining was an overgeneralisation - I apologise, it was pretty late.
"and EVERYONE knows if you're a piece of shit you don't mess with Psychedelics"
From personal experience, I can't agree with that. I've done acid with people who're less than desirable multiple times - (an example being a girl who was and still is a massive gold digger and has stolen from her family in the past) and they've still had better psychedelic experiences than I. Most of the psychedelic users I've spoken to have never said that "don't mess with psychedelics if you're a shit person" thing either, so from personal experience and the advice of others, I can't say that I agree with your apparent consensus.
"But does it harm you physically or mentally other than being scary? NO" I hate to live up to your comment, but you're objectively wrong. People who have had awful (and I mean, the worst of the worst) trips can have lingering depressive thoughts and mild PTSD (at the very worst), it's been recorded in the past (And you can look this up if you're sceptical about this claim).
Are you alluding to me being one of those people who you associated with those clichéd lines (Eg. "I know a guy")? Afraid you're kinda wrong there - I've used psychedelics for about 5 years and I have a pretty good understanding of them, I just don't like people spreading falsehoods.
I'd also like to point out the irony in you mocking me for overgeneralising, yet you yourself instantly overgeneralise me into a group of people for simply disagreeing with you. And also, "No, I think you're wrong"? what? how is that a bad thing to say? Saying "I think you're wrong" is simply voicing your opinion on a matter. If nobody ever said "I think you're wrong", then there would be no discussions whatsoever, and our world would be hugely underdeveloped. So essentially, your comment makes you seem incredibly arrogant, as you don't seem to like people disagreeing with you on a basic level, even if they have reasonable grounds to do so.I agree with you, that psychedelics are the least harmful type of drug, if used correctly. However, when you spread misinformation, you're actively contributing to making them more dangerous, as people will go into those trips with false expectations and may come out worse as a result.
All the drugs you mentioned are harmful in excess and if taken regularly, however in moderation, they're not on the level of causing "absolute havoc".
Bill Seabolt we believe you. No one is saying psychedelics don't have their uses. You said that it can help fix people while I say it changes personality - and we are saying the same message. My intention was tell people that once you go down the rabbit hole there is no going back. Most people like "expanding" their minds and only see the positive. Any personality modification is a mixed bag though, you must take the good and the bad. Can you understand how fundamentally changing who you are can impact your life? It is a big decision that deserves an equal amount of forethought.
This was nice
I need this full lecture
