    You are the father i never had, i know it's a big statement but it is true. I know you will never read this comment but i just had to express my gratitude. You will never know how much you mean to me. As a 22 year old man, thank you from the bottom of my heart, you keep me going through tough times. You are a truly great man.

    It has often been said that philosophy is the attempt at organized thinking that precedes science. Perhaps we could then add that art is the attempt at representing concepts that precedes philosophy.

      Yes :) Or myth. :)

      I think that religion and art come from a similar place in the brain. Perhaps mythology is where these two areas meet.... mythology=the crossroads of religion and art.

      Intersting observation. I think you're onto something. I might compliment that by saying perhaps art is the attempt at representation which not only precedes, science and philosophy, but also represents alongside simultaneously the latter two.
      Ever wonder if impressionist painters, such as Van Gough, may have been able to "see" the quantum realms?

    I'd love to see all of Jordan's lectures come in the form of books. All his lectures are worthy of being translated into the written form. Humanity needs all of the knowledge that he shares because it is so foundational in so many aspects. What A mind....the beauty of his lectures are priceless.

    • @georgemink1813

      look into "the six ages of civilization" which was mapped out by the ancient Greeks.
      The answer to your question is YES, and I think you'd appreciate reading the list of six ages, and what each age entails...

      Jordan is probably the greatest mind of our time. As a young woman I was on the hunt for this sort of information. Now at nearly 76.... here it is. His style of thought is very holistic - he see all of the points - the dark and the light. That is quite a struggle for too often there is no one capable of doing that at his level of communication and expertise.

    Dear Mr Jordan,
    At about the 13 minute mark you discussed the trinity. My personal interpretation of the meaning behind that is what makes you you? Typically you start off as the son, then as you get older you become the father, the thing that connects the 2 threw time is the spirit. Just food for thought

    Revelation can be brought to alcoholics through Psychedelic therapy. The number of cases arent great at this stage, however, in the initial studies. The therapy had an 80% chance of success (success is rated by how many patients are sober, 6 months or more).

    The main theme of the three major 'new' religions, Christians, Muslims and Buddhists, is that they turned mere humans into the equivalent of gods. By displacing the 'nature/heaven' gods with humans is most interesting, the evolution and elevation of mere humans to celestial gods is...pride of the greatest levels.

    Interestingly, in the lower animal world of chimps, the top (the strongest) chimp can’t be a totally tyrannical, brutal, leader, because, if he is, then lessor chimps, when they become angry enough, will band together and tear that leader to shreds, and a mew leader will install himself. In the human world, a heartless, brutal, tyrannical leader-someone who enslaves, murders and destroys his underlings-is entirely possible, without anyone banding together to destroy him and install a new leader.
    Consider Joseph Stalin, or Mao Tse Dong, or Adolf Hitler, and others. They starved, destroyed , murdered, enslaved, of their own people, those they decided were traitorous or, even, not enthusiastic enough in their assigned labors, or their perceived patriotism (to the leader). This is possible, I think, because we don’t see our leaders simply in terms of how they treat us, but more-so in how they treat our fellow citizens whom we don’t like and wish were hurt.
    If we see the minions of the leader hurting those we perceive as our enemies, or someone who doesn’t matter to us-or, of whom we are, for any reason, jealous-and giving them great pain, or death, that is perfectly acceptable to us: we see it as “justice.” Later, when the tyranny turns on us-to destroy us for its own reasons-its actions can actually be acceptable to us, because we’ve internalized these actions as a normal part of governance.
    The only problem is that we know we’re innocent-at least, we think we’re innocent. However, anyone who happens to be looking in as the government destroy’s us, sees us, as we saw everyone else being destroyed by the government, as enemies and deserving of the strictest punishment.
    The whole thing is a vicious circular thought process.

    An over sophisticated male or chimp can upset the maps of meaning if he is too dominant. It can create a temporary hell in multiple domains. If this is conscientious authority, it may be ok. He must always admit his mistakes honestly. I won’t over theorise on this.
