    292. The Language of Creation | Matthieu Pageau

    292. The Language of Creation | Matthieu Pageau

    Dr. Peterson's extensive catalog is available now on DailyWire+: https://utm.io/ueSXh

     

    Matthieu Pageau and Dr. Jordan B. Peterson discuss the meaning of mythos. They draw parallels to the Bible as they discuss Adam and Eve, how their story relates to psychology, and its parallels to modern human behavior.

     

    Matthieu Pageau is a Canadian author living in Quebec. For over a decade he’s taken part in discussions regarding religious philosophy and symbolism with his brother and icon carver Jonathan Pageau. This led him to write his first novel: “The Language of Creation: Cosmic Symbolism: A Commentary”

    290. Douglas Murray & Jonathan Pageau

    290. Douglas Murray & Jonathan Pageau

    Dr. Peterson's extensive catalog is available now on DailyWire+: https://utm.io/ueSXh

     

    Jonathan Pageau, Douglas Murray, and Dr Jordan B Peterson discuss our hierarchies of perception, existence, faith, and whether meaning is a self evident truth or something intangible that is sought in vain.

     

    Jonathan Pageau is a French-Canadian liturgical artist and icon carver, known for his work featured in museums across the world. He carves Eastern Orthodox and other traditional images, and teaches an online carving class. He also runs a YouTube channel dedicated to the exploration of symbolism across history and religion.

     

    Douglas Murray is a British political commentator and author. In 2007 he founded a think tank called the Center for Social Cohesion, which later became part of the Henry Jackson Society. Currently he is an associate editor for the magazine the Spectator, where he became somewhat infamous after organizing a competition in which entrants were invited to submit offensive poems about Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, with a top prize of £1,000. He has authored five books, the most recent of which being “The War on the West.”

    277. Deeper Yet Into The Weeds | Pageau & Vervaeke

    277. Deeper Yet Into The Weeds | Pageau & Vervaeke

    This was the first time that Jonathan Pagaeu, John Vervaeke, and Jordan Peterson all sat down together in person. Recorded in Dr. Peterson’s home, and prominently featuring many of Kwakwakaʼwakw carver Charles Joseph’s incredible statues and carvings, this recording may require a few complete watchthroughs. The conversation was created to intentionally dive deep into the areas of systems of perception and their impacts on our abilities to prioritize, the nature of YHWH (Judeo-Christian God), and the exploration of the True, the Good, and the Beautiful. This conversation is only the beginning of many more conversations to have between these three and on these topics. Please comment any insights that you have derived from this video, my team will be paying close attention to the progress on these ideas.

    Jonathan Pageau is a symbolic thinker, YouTuber, and class carver of orthodox icons. Jordan and Jonathan have an ongoing dialogue surrounding Judeo-Christian narrative, reality, and symbolism among many other topics.

    John Vervaeke is an Assistant Professor in Cognitive Psychology and Cognitive Science at the University of Toronto. His work constructs a bridge between science and spirituality in order to understand the experience of meaningfulness and the cultivation of wisdom so as to afford awakening from the meaning crisis.

    John Butler - How to Stay Humble in Spiritual Pursuits and Learn to Love the Silence

    John Butler - How to Stay Humble in Spiritual Pursuits and Learn to Love the Silence

    This week, I speak with John Butler in what may be the most genuinely Slo Mo episode to date. Recorded in Bakewell Parish Church, a place filled with prayers of the hopeful going back over a thousand years, this conversation is an honest perspective and retrospective on the purpose of our existence, and nothing less.

    John Butler has been practicing meditation for nearly 60 years. Now in his eighties - a self-proclaimed 'little boy with a grey beard' and humbled back into innocence, he shares his insights with the world on a YouTube channel that now has over 200,000 subscribers. He has also published 8 books, to describe his amazing life in search of spiritual perfection - details on his website. 

    "Who am I, but just one more of those who, since time began, have walked the hills and gazed upon the stars? When we, with heart outstretched, feel close to God, it's safer to be humble than to think we know. Experience, however, is given to be shared. While others receive otherwise, each part unique, though incomplete, contributes to the whole."

    Listen as we discuss:

    • Why John doesn't consider himself wise or a teacher, and thus avoids a slippery slope.
    • How defining meditation has deterred us from its aims.
    • Two things in the world that have no limit.
    • Silence is a good practical approach to the infinite.
    • How the journey inward often begins when life shakes us up.
    • John's story from farmer to reluctant YouTube sensation.
    • Everything in the world works under perfect law.
    • Looking back on life as an old person.
    • Why we feel ourselves divided.
    • Why the word "happy" feels too small.
