Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down in-person with psychiatrist, researcher, and philosopher Dr. Iain McGilchrist. They discuss right brain/left brain hemispheric specialization, the basis of delusion, “unknowing” as a necessary step toward wisdom, consciousness and the divine ground of being, and the imposition of mediocrity in the modern West.
Dr. Iain McGilchrist is a psychiatrist, neuroscience researcher, philosopher and literary scholar. He is a Quondam Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, an Associate Fellow of Green Templeton College, Oxford, a Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, and former Consultant Psychiatrist and Clinical Director at the Bethlem Royal & Maudsley Hospital, London. He has been a Research Fellow in neuroimaging at Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore and a Fellow of the Institute of Advanced Studies in Stellenbosch. He has published original articles and research papers in a wide range of publications on topics in literature, philosophy, medicine and psychiatry. He is the author of a number of books, but is best-known for The Master and his Emissary: The Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World (Yale 2009). In November 2021 his two-volume work The Matter with Things: Our Brains, Our Delusions, and the Unmaking of the World was published by Perspectiva Press.

The funny thing is, this isn't separated from politics. It's just talking about topics you don't think relate to politics, but they do. The people JP normally is at odds with politically don't think about the topics discussed in this video for a second in their lives, ever. What constructs many people like JP's political views, myself included, is studying topics like the ones laid out in this video. You don't get a political view opposite of JP if you fully understand the gravity of what him and his guest are getting at here.

The last time i listened to Dr. Peterson’s interview with Dr. McGilchrist was 3 years ago. I was working in Forensics and I decided to buy Dr. McGilchrist’s book, ‘The Master and His Emissary’. 3 years later, now 2024, here’s a new interview, and I am at Page 69/462 of Dr. McGilchrist’s book. Each page is so condensed and opens an entirely new door of this real estate called the brain. Just 69 pages in 3 years, the insights from the book has signposted me to complete 2 shortcourses on neurobiology, 1 course on mental and behavioural assessement and pursue a specialty in Crisis Assessment. The book also motivated me to purchase Antonio Damasio‘s book on consciousness. I can draw a detailed map of the brain and picture the factory of brain structures that churn out life processes. 69 pages only, yet so many rich stops and diversions I’ve taken. It’s so good to see the two men talk again. Thank you both for your endless dedication towards education. Thank you kindly.

@RogerWilco66 Месяц назад

Same here. "The Master and His Emmissary" took me a over full year to read for the first time, because I got sidetracked by following the citations and book references, which were seemingly endless. It was like studying. I also booked edX courses in neuroscience to fill basic knowledge voids to understand what has been written. I had a similar experince with Petersons Maps of Meaning, which had a big impact on me many years ago. To see and listen to these two men in a discussion is a huge treat for me.

@AbesYoutube Месяц назад

@@RogerWilco66I hear you Roger. I love taking notes when other authors are cited. It gives me authors for further reading on related topics. Often ones who take a contrary viewpoints and helps to fill out my understanding on the topics. Never stop learning. Those who have lost their childlike curiosity have become mentally stagnated due to their foolish pride. They have traded their passion for truth for the euphoria of vanity and have lost all perspective. I like Jordan because even when he is speaking to the ignorant he is trying to learn from them and about them because he knows that he cannot see all that is there. Humility is as endearing as pride is repellent.

Freemasonry is based on the Kabbalah. The revelations of the Kabbalah, if any , are masked by the power mad deception of having A Bible honored (supposedly) in ' Christian' lodges, the Torah in Jewish lodges , the Quran in Islamic lodges and the Baghavad Gits in Hindu lodges.' The Cloud of Unknowing' a medieval mystic text: l want I know God, but l will forget everything l know about God (the Christian God) and seek Him .

Another view, another thought. I started taking piano lessons at age 7. I continued taking lessons into my mid twenties. My college major was piano. I'm 80 years old. I believe playing the piano effected me in a very positive way. The hands have 5 fingers each, & there are times all 10 are doing different things on the piano. One part will be legato, another staccato & different fingers will play loud as others play soft. I read that one hand effects one side of the brain & the other hand the other side. Playing is physical, mental, emotional all at the same time. Plus the foot is using the pedal. Do you think that playing the piano could be connected to what you & your guest discussed? Other instruments, like a flute, use all the fingers, but only play one note at a time. All the memorizing, & practice, have helped me in older age to stay bright, & curious & remember small details other family members have forgotten.

@bencochrane6112 Месяц назад

I've recently started playing piano myself (or at least become more formal in learning). It feels like a bit of a weird instrument to me, in that there's a disconnect to the music. It's the fact that you're pressing keys to make music happen, as opposed to putting your breath into it, or making contact with the vibrating surface in someway. To give an analogy, it feels a bit like the video game version of music - press key to make sound happen, in the same way a game controller is press button to make character move. This is not to say it's any less of an instrument compared to a flute or a guitar, but I think the disconnect promotes a level of abstraction to the music that isn't there in others. When you blow a trumpet it is your literal breath making the music, a bit like singing with extra steps. My point in relation to this conversation and your comment, is that the piano is probably more of a right brain instrument compared to others- a bit more open and analytical since there isn't a specific "right way" to make the music (barring some accepted and sensible to learn fingering techniques). Other instruments have some very specific movements or actions you need to take to get the right note. It also is probably more of an "overseer" instrument, in that the player literally sits above all the notes and can access them at any time - not to say that you can't say the same for a trombone, but it is harder to replicate the same versatility as the piano.

@marsrideroneofficial Месяц назад

Playing piano is: left hand's the bass; right hand's the lead guitar and if you can sing along and look and nod at your audience is a level up. I also saw a piano in a large bicycle on line and that's above the stratosphere in terms of connections in the brain.

@wp912 Месяц назад

Interesting theory but speculative and anecdotal at best. It could very well be that you just so happen to have a better memory and coincidentally played the piano when you were younger. Correlation does not equal causation. Many old people with impressive cognitive abilities never played musical instruments when they were younger.

@aga5109 Месяц назад

Dr. Peterson, thank you for inviting Dr.McGilchrist back. It was such a great discussion & brilliant book he wrote! I understand external processes as the effects and manifestations of internal ones. "Radical simplification" in today's culture wars using simplifying algorithms. The basis of what is right or wrong comes from ideological identifications with ideological dogmas not from moral law also encoded in the Bible and the tradition, teachings. It is rightly called algorithmic, procedural, constrained, under control, left hemispheric, collapsing the complex into crude, over simplifying and blind to what else can be true. It is not wise. Our culture permeates with left hemispheric thinking and ideas. It simlifies and trivialises practically everythig. It perpetuates the Dunning - Kruger effect. The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which people wrongly overestimate their knowledge or ability in a specific area. This tends to occur because a lack of self-awareness prevents them from accurately assessing their own skills. In the effects of trauma, a person disengages from reality as it is by turning to cognitive mechanisms that further distort what there is. A collection of distorted mechanisms builds distorted ideas, which form an illusion of reality - an ideology. This process happens again and again in human history. We are on the way to develop another one on a grand scale. I'd say the left hemispheric functions take part in it to curb the uncounscious the right hemisphere is more in touch with. It is a process of compressing reality into an illusion everyone should believe in for survival reasons. And act it out. To me, it seems in some part acting out traumas or brain malfunctions, where there is a lack of proper integration of its different functions on societal level. Partly due to a sudden rapture in trust and a safe relationship in trauma, one starts to believe that one can't believe his embodied experience because it is untrustworthy and dangerous. What it can cause is resorting to an illusion of the reality built by the defence mechanisms, which is internally safer and gets projected outward. World starts to operate in projection out of survival. There is a rupture in the process of integration of embodied experience and partly alienation from it. It brings alienation from reality as it is also from "the uncounscious, "the realm of God, and embodied experience and deep emotions. It is like being out of touch with processing of a process of reality, aggreviting alienation from oneself, God, others, reality as an effect. It is like being stuck in a frozen picture of reality in ever changing flow and evolving process of life. The culture that is built from the frozen frame acts as an epigenetic mechanism shaping phenotypic expressions passed on to the next generation - transmission of trauma. BRILLIANT podcast! Thank you!

Dr. Peterson, I have been a Protestant minister for over 40 years (although I abhor the label), a businessman, and a high school science teacher. I have found your materials both stimulating and validating across both the disciplines of faith and science. I think you are performing an amazing service to the world with your books and talks. I was exposed to your lectures on Genesis somewhat post-hoc of some of the thoughts I've held about creation, meaning, and purpose for humankind. But I've also been inspired with the new and fresh insights you provide about those subjects, in particular the essence of the Garden of Eden and man's expulsion. Man's responsibility to 'dress' and 'keep' the Garden was his first and major betrayal of God's trust-even deeper than his transgression of eating the forbidden fruit (whatever that was). Your description of 'bringing order out of chaos', and man's responsibility to continue that theme on earth, is-in my opinion-spot on and has been a life-changing paradigm shift for me from attending to traditional religious roles. While I imagine the chances of your reading this comment are miniscule, I have read that you peruse your comments. So on the off chance you ever get to this, thank you for your work. It has meant as much to me in guiding my thoughts as any religious speaker or writer I can think of.

Do you know much about the origins of the old and new testaments? Have complete original manuscripts ever been recovered or verified? I am reminded of the fiasco revolving around the discovery of the supposed dead sea scrolls some years ago now that all turned out to be modern forgeries. How as well, do you verify other aspects of the bible, such as the books by various apostles, whose authorships have never been authenticated, let alone character referenced. Could you explain what you base your faith in your religion on? By the way, I do believe in one true God, I just do not agree that Christianity or the bible are based on divine revelation.

Oh my goodness, Dr. Peterson, I am not just interested in the Gospel seminar- I am thrilled to my heart that you are undertaking this! I wanted to share a story about the power of the Gospel stories in the hope it may help someone. A number of years ago, the tragic events that culminated in making me a single mum of two small children unfolded, and left me in desperate agony and uncertainty and terror. My brother came over, poured me a glass of medicinal wine, held my hand, and read to me from John’s Gospel. I pleaded with him “Just read me some Gospel.” And John’s Gospel was the most comforting thing anyone could give me in that dark time, because it wasn’t preaching and it wasn’t platitudes and it wasn’t “thou shalt and thou shalt not”, it was just Jesus. The embodiment of the logos. And you don’t know God is all you need till God is all you’ve got. My prayer is that the Gospel seminar might be that for someone. With Ruth Anne’s love.

With regard to attention, I was thinking of a line from Mary Oliver, our great New England poet: I don’t know what a prayer is. But I do know How to pay attention. Deeply moved by this beautiful conversation. Such a delicate and graceful intellectual dance, or perhaps a verbal fencing match. I’ve never been so sure that Dr. Peterson is finally really really healthy- completely himself again and lucid in thought and fluent in speech once again. And thus the two great minds can finally properly meet and the promise of the first tentative conversation can be answered years later!

Communicating too much - Amen to that! I know of some people who talk all the time and it's hard to even function around them. Same for technology. I went back to just a basic cell phone and a desktop computer in a computer room because having technology that overcommunictes just scatters your thought patterns so much it's hard to function.

Don’t struggle with that! Have fun with it! Explore, not struggle….. Curiosity, not control. Supposedly, Jung told one of his students “You don’t need to worry about the external world. If you serve your inner world, your inner world will take care of everything.” (Since your unconscious is in charge anyway…..) The student had a successful career, wrote many books, trained other Jungians, helped many people, was successful in the outer world for sure…all by aligning with his own daemon…..

@EccleezyAvicii Месяц назад

It’s actually a three body problem. Balance is in and of itself a thing, the ‘nor’ in your statement is as important as the words which straddle it. I see intellect as the process itself, and the three parts as intuition, emotion, and reason. Balancing your emotions with reason gives you clear sight into intuition, just as emotionally harnessing your intuition opens the windows through which reason can shine.

It is always a joy to listen to Dr. McGilchrist. His way of looking at life resonates very deeply with me, even though I don't agree with him on everything. I also thoroughly enjoyed the elucidation of the equivocating of the stories of religion to the workings of the human psyche. Having studied many different belief systems, that is not an avenue I have explored in any detail. It was enthralling the whole time. Thank you both.

Oh what a TREAT. I have enjoyed watching Dr. Peterson and Dr. McGilchrist talk since their very first conversation over five years ago, that we all wished were two hours instead of half an hour! Dearest Dr. Peterson, my heart is overflowing with joy for Tammy to have found her spiritual Home in the Catholic Church! I saw all the pictures and interviews and she is just glowing and radiant. I loved the interview you two had, and my heart is full of a thought I wanted to share. I think perhaps God has called you to be an ecumenical follower of Christ unaffiliated with any denomination, in order that you can speak to all Christians, everywhere, without your words being dismissed by Christians outside your chosen denomination. I’ve also seen how the different denominations pull and tug on you wanting you to join them and it’s less love for you, deep knowing of you and where you are on your faith journey, and more a means of trying to exercise power and control over you and choose you as a mascot for their team. I am a lifelong follower of Christ and I know intimately how ugly our Christian testimony can be and how we can ruin it with our arrogance and our selfish pride. And that would hurt you terribly to have denominations fighting over you and tearing you apart, and I don’t want you to be hurt. I am also concerned about a strong movement of anti intellectualism in evangelical Christianity that constantly demands you to give up your intellect to gain faith. I do not believe that God Who gave you your intellect intends for you to forgo its use; I believe God intends for you to use your God given intellect and reason and sense for the glory of God, even as also you do, so that you might be a bridge to other intellectuals who are finding their way. And so I think you both are right where you need to be. And you two are so precious to me. With Ruth Anne’s love and Eastertide blessings.
