    “The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to such a pass that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love, and in order to occupy and distract himself without love he gives way to passions and coarse pleasures, and sinks to bestiality in his vices, all from continual lying to other men and to himself.” -Dostoevsky

    Professor Peterson, I’m a Special Education Teacher. Many years ago, I applied late to teach summer school. The only opening was to teach Severely Impaired High School Students. I needed the money, but was revolted at the prospect of changing diapers on 17 year olds. Within 2 days of my summer school job, my life’s meaning became as clear as Chrystal. To Serve Others. My students only wanted to love the world and everyone in it. I was humbled in knowing I was a fortunate man to serve Human Beings who had never sinned in their lives. My life was full of Joy as they were my teachers. When I witnessed a mute Down’s Syndrome student insist on helping feed a blind quadriplegic girl before he would touch his lunch...Yes, I experienced Heaven on Earth and it completely changed me.

    I've watched all the 2017 lectures (including the biblical) at least twice so far, some of them even more times. Also many of JBP's other interviews and talks. Now I'm going through this 2014 / 2015 series, wondering how much different it's gonna be and your comment makes me even more curious 🙂 I really liked the 2014 Transliminal interview, it felt like the thoughts were kind of in a more raw form, perhaps because he was going through a more narrow field so he didn't need to synthesise (and therefore partly simplify) as much material. So I'm always looking for these higher resolution lectures, because JBP has so much more to offer. What an inspiration he is.

    I used to read lots of self help books during my childhood which made me look at the life in a certain way, though i could not live that way. This become a source of conflict in my head, blaming myself for not living a life the way i think. JP made me realize that those thoughts were not mine, but taken from those books and I was not supposed to live my life according to the thoughts of those writers. This lecture was more than that. It has cleared so many erratic thoughts of mine which were the source of constant conflict in my head and pain for heart. Thankyou JP

    Well just as those books share ideas, so does Jordan Peterson in his lectures. You incorporating book ideas in to your life or not, is the same as you do with Jordans lectures. Just be wary of the logical fallacy you make in your statements. Nonetheless I like Jordans ideas about life, which is essentially the knowledge of man kind up until now, summarized neatly. Maybe one day when I am ready to liberate my self completely, i'll re-listen to Krishnamurti talks :D.

    My grades dramatically improved in science class when the teacher was changed. I found the new teacher so much more engaging and interesting. The head of the department thought my sudden grade improvement suspicious and accused me of cheating. I began to hate school and my grades across all subjects declined. It confused my parents as they knew I had typically enjoyed learning. They didn't believe me it was the teachers that were the problem.

    What a wonderful lecture from the past. I always wonder if those students really appreciate those moments in class with Dr. Peterson. I even envy them sometimes. But I’m grateful to be able to watch and learn them all here, all thanks to Dr. Peterson for making these lectures available online. Can’t wait to start the next one!!

    his pointing out and dwelling upon on the pitfalls of identifying with the intellect are priceless. A process I have lived through my youth and grew out of gradually. Intellect still possesses me, but only in episodes. Wanting to live a meaningful and moral life was desire drawn from my social background..grateful for it.... and that made me keep searching for an experience beyond the buzz of the mind...............

    Even from a young age upon first learning about what happened in nazi Germany there was always something that didn't make sense to me in regards to how a government could so easily and thoroughly turn its society totalitarian. That was what interested me to learn more about it. But no one ever said what JP is saying about how it happens both from the top and the bottom with a certain sick cooperation from each individual. It now makes perfect sense that this is of course the only way it can happen. And of course this also makes all the more terrifying.

    As a Marriage and Family Therapy student, it has been more than a real pleasure to watch and learn from Dr. Peterson. He has done what he teaches (except for always keep his room clean ha!), and that includes learning to increase your courage to overcome fear and anxiety. He stated 'Fear is a liar' and that taught me that fear will cost you everything but love is priceless. His genuineness to love and help others become their greatest potential while striving towards self-actualization is something I can only dream to not only achieve to some degree myself, but help others along this journey and be consistent about it. To be the best possible parent to my son and to take on life's greatest responsibilities. To serve the LORD and at the behest of my brothers and sisters. I hope someday I may be afforded the opportunity to meet you Dr. Peterson. God bless and thank you for the difference you've made in this world of madness.
