00:01:17.640Let this be the first step towards the brighter future you deserve.
00:01:21.140Welcome to Season 2, Episode 19 of the Jordan B. Peterson Podcast.
00:01:34.480I'm Mikayla Peterson, dad's daughter, collaborator, and most attractive offspring.
00:06:21.180And, you kind of think you thought them up.
00:06:22.980But, that might even be true, but it's not much of an explanation.
00:06:33.780You know, and it's a tenet of psychoanalytic thinking, especially of the Jungian version.
00:06:38.580But, also with regards to Freud, that articulated thoughts emerge out of a substrate that's basically dreamlike.
00:06:47.160So, you can think, there's the world out there that you don't understand.
00:06:51.380The world that's deep beyond your comprehension.
00:06:54.080And then, there's the articulated world that you live in, that consists of the thoughts that you have at hand.
00:07:00.420Many of them verbalized, but not all of them, but many of them.
00:07:03.860And then, there's an intermediary between what you know and what you don't know.
00:07:09.080And, that intermediary is composed of the dream.
00:07:12.960And, the dream is actually the dream, but it's also the daydream.
00:07:18.200And, it's also literature, and art, and mythology, and music, and ritual, and dance, and all those things that we participate in, that are sort of dreamlike.
00:07:29.540And, so, you have the unknown itself, and then you have the zone of the dream, and then you have articulated thought.
00:07:37.400And, partly why psychoanalytically minded psychotherapists are interested in the dream, is because,
00:07:45.680and this is, again, particularly true of the followers of Carl Jung, I would say.
00:07:49.500And, his investigations into dreams, is that, a dream is mysterious, not because it's trying to be mysterious.
00:07:57.880But, a dream is mysterious because, it's trying to solve a really complicated problem.
00:08:02.760And, it's a problem that you can't solve.
00:11:27.920And, I would say that the neurological evidence, neuropsychological evidence that's been accreted since the time Carl Jung was writing about dreams,
00:11:36.440actually suggests that something like that, something quite like that, is the case.
00:11:40.500So, for example, it does look like your right hemisphere, which seems to be more involved in the dreaming process,
00:11:46.660is, in fact, designed, in some sense, to deal with things that your left hemisphere,
00:11:53.440with its more articulated notion of reality, either can't or won't face.
00:11:59.200And so, I think the things that I'm telling you are on solid ground, insofar as such things can be on solid ground.
00:12:07.060So, I had this dream, when I was working on a complicated problem.
