I'm Dr. Jordan B. Peterson.   

歡迎收看 "課後 "節目，我是喬丹-B-彼得森博士。

Today, we'll be summoning our inner monsters.

我們將召喚內心的怪獸，沒有更多的阿多，讓我們潛入

Without further ado, let's dive In.

You know, you might say that someone who is incapable of cruelty is a higher moral being than someone who is capable of cruelty 

你認識一個人，你可能會說，一個不會殘忍的人是一個道德高尚的人

And I would say, in this follows young as well, that that's incorrect, and it's dangerously incorrect because if you are not capable of cruelty, you are absolutely a victim to anyone who is.

我想說的是，這一點在年輕人身上也得到了體現。

And so, part of the reason that people go watch anti-heroes and villains is because there's a part of them crying out for the incorporation of the monster within them, which is what gives them strength of character and self-respect.

這是不正確的，而且是危險的，因為如果你沒有能力

Becuase it's impossible to respect yourself until you grow teeth.

殘酷的是，你絕對是任何人的受害者，所以人們去觀看的部分原因是

And if you grow teeth and you realize that you're somewhat dangerous, and maybe somewhat seriously dangerous, then you might be more willing to demand that you treat yourself with respect, and other people do the same thing.

反英雄和反派之所以被稱為 "反英雄 "和 "反派"，是因為他們的內心深處有一部分在呼喚著他們內心的怪物，正是這種怪物賦予了他們人格的力量和自尊 因為在你長出牙齒之前，你不可能尊重自己。 你意識到自己有些危險，或者說有些嚴重危險，然後 你可能更願意要求自己尊重他人，也更願意要求他人尊重你。 是以，這並不意味著殘忍比不殘忍更好。

And so, that doesn't mean that being cruel is better than not being cruel.

它的意思是，能夠殘忍，然後不殘忍，總比不能夠

What it means is that being able to be cruel and then not being cruel is better than not being able to be cruel because, in the first case, you're nothing but weak and naive, and in the second case, you're dangerous but you have it under control.

殘忍，因為在第一種情況下，你只是軟弱和天真，而在第二種情況下，你是

And you know a lot of martial arts concentrate on exactly that as part of their philosophy of training.

危險，但你已經控制住了。

It's like we're not training you to fight; we're training you to be peaceful and awake, and avoid fights.

這也是他們訓練理念的一部分。

But if you happen to have to get in one, and I guess the philosophy also is that if you're competent at fighting, that actually decreases the probability that you're going to have to fight.

訓練你保持平和、清醒，避免爭吵，但如果你碰巧不得不與人發生爭執然後，我想哲學也是，如果你有能力 在戰鬥中，實際上會降低你不得不戰鬥的概率 因為當有人逼你的時候，你就能自信地迴應，如果運氣好，這 當然，對於欺凌者來說，運氣好的話，還能表現出合理的自信，這一點非常重要。 等同於顯示支配地位，就足以讓欺凌者退縮，是以

Because when someone pushes you, you'll be able to respond with confidence, and with any luck (and this is certainly the case with bullies), with any luck, a reasonable show of confidence, which is very much equivalent to a show of dominance, is going to be enough to make the bully back off.

你在畸形中發展的力量實際上是和平的最佳保障，這就是

And so, the strength that you develop in your monstrousness is actually the best guarantee of peace.

And that's partly why Jung believed that it was necessary for people to integrate their shadow. when you  

這也是榮格認為人們有必要整合自己的 "陰影 "的部分原因，他說

And he said that was a terrible thing for people to attempt because the human shadow, which is all those things about yourself that you don't want to realize, reaches all the way to hell.

對人們來說，這是件可怕的事情，因為人類的 "陰影"，也就是所有這些關於

And what he meant by that was it's through an analysis of your own shadow that you can come to understand why other people are capable, and you as well, of the sorts of terrible atrocities that characterize, let's say, the 20th century.

你自己也不想意識到，你會一直到達地獄，而他的意思是通過分析自己的陰影，你才能理解為什麼其他人會 我們和你們一樣，都有能力應對比方說 20 世紀的可怕暴行。

Without that understanding, there's no possibility of bringing it under control.

如果沒有這種認識，就不可能在以下情況下對其進行控制

When you study Nazi Germany, for example, or you study the Soviet Union, particularly under Stalin, and you're asking yourself, "Well, what are these perpetrators like? Forget about the victims; let's talk about the perpetrators.'"

比如研究納粹德國，或者研究蘇聯，尤其是斯大林時期的蘇聯，你會發現這些犯罪者是什麼樣的？

The answer is, they're just like you.

犯罪者的答案是他們和你一樣，如果你不知道這一點，那隻能說明

And if you don't know that, that just means that you don't know anything about people, including yourself.

你對包括你自己在內的人一無所知，那麼這也意味著你已經

And then it also means that you have to discover why they're just like you, and believe me, that's no picnic.

去發現為什麼他們和你一樣，相信我，這可不是什麼好玩的事，所以這足以讓你受到創傷

So, that's enough to traumatize people, and that's partly why they don't do it.

這就是為什麼他們不這樣做的部分原因，也是為什麼啟蒙和

It's also partly why the path to enlightenment and wisdom is seldom trod upon, because if it was all a matter of following your bliss and doing what made you happy, then everyone in the world would be a paragon of wisdom.

智慧很少被人涉足，因為如果只是追隨自己的幸福，做自己想做的事

But it's not that at all. It's a matter of facing the thing you least want to face.

那麼世界上的每個人都會成為智慧的典範，但事實並非如此。這就需要面對你最不想面對的事情，而每個人都有這樣的老問題

And everyone has that old story in King Arthur where the knights go off to look for the Holy Grail, which is either the cup that Christ drank out of at the last supper or the cup into which the blood that gushed from his side was poured when he was crucified.

亞瑟王》中有這樣一個古老的故事：騎士們去尋找聖盃這要麼是基督在最後的晚餐中喝下的杯子，要麼是 "聖盃"。

The stories vary, but it's basically a holy object, like the Phoenix in some sense, that's a representation, a representation of transformation.

當他被釘在十字架上時，從他身旁湧出的鮮血澆在了他的身上。從某種意義上說，它就像鳳凰一樣，是一個聖物，代表著

So, it's an ideal. King Arthur's knights, who sit at a round table because they're all roughly equal, go off to find the most valuable thing.

轉變是一種理想，是以亞瑟王的騎士們坐在圓桌旁

And where do you look for the most valuable thing when you don't know where it is?

因為它們都是大致相同的，去尋找最有價值的東西，它們和你在哪裡

Well, each of the knights looks at the forests surrounding the castle and enters the forest at the point that looks darkest to him.

當你不知道最有價值的東西在哪裡時就去找它 每個騎士都在尋找觀察城堡周圍的森林，在他看來最黑暗的地方進入森林

That's a good thing to understand because the gateway to wisdom and the gateway to the development of personality, which is exactly the same thing, is precisely through the portal that you do not want to climb through.

這一點很好理解，因為通往智慧和人格的發展是完全一樣的，正是通過舷窗

And the reason for that's actually quite technical.

你不想爬過的門戶，原因其實很技術性這也是一個聯盟的預設，即你身上有很多東西都是 不發達，其中很多是因為你避免去看 因為你不想去看他們，你的某些部分一直在避免發展 因為你很難開發這些部分，所以這是虛擬的需要 你需要的東西就在你不想看的地方，因為你一直把它放在那裡，所以 當你看到這些故事中，你所認識的英雄前往充滿恐怖和危險的未知之地時 這就是發生在你身上的事 這一直髮生在你身上 你知道你在這裡面 像夏爾的霍比特人那樣的小安全空間，然後你就會知道有一個巨大的邪惡在醞釀著 在某個地方，你再也無法忽視它，於是你進入了恐怖之地。 不確定性，最好是有目的地去，而不是意外地去，這是肯定的，因為 至少你可以做好準備，我們也知道，如果你要面對威脅 如果你自願面對它，你的身體就會自我激活，進行探索 和 "精通"，但如果你面對的是非自願的相同大小的威脅，那麼你就會恢復 進入獵食模式，你會被冰凍，壓力會更大，對你的身體也更難承受

This is a union presupposition too, that well, there's a bunch of things about you that are underdeveloped, and a lot of those things are because they're things you've avoided looking at because you don't want to look at them. There are parts of you you've avoided developing because it's hard for you to develop those parts. So, it's by virtual necessity that what you need is where you don't want to look because that's where you've kept it. When you see these stories of the hero journeying to unknown lands of terror and danger, that's what happens to you. It happens to you all the time. You're in this little safe space, like The Hobbit in the Shire, and then you know there's a great evil brewing somewhere, and you can no longer ignore it. So off you go into the land of terror and uncertainty, and better to go on purpose than accidentally, that's for sure, because at least you can be prepared. We also know that if you're going to face a threat, if you face it voluntarily, what happens is your body activates itself for exploration and mastery. But if you face it involuntarily, the same size threat, then you revert to prey mode and you're frozen, and that's way, way, way more stressful. It's way harder on your body."

and so it's better to keep your eye open and watch  for emergent threats because you all know you know  

是以，最好睜大眼睛，留意突發威脅，因為你們都知道，你們知道

what you're not doing quite right and where your  life is likely to unravel you all have a sense of  

你在哪些方面做得不夠好，你的生活可能會在哪些方面出現問題，你都會有這樣的感覺

that and the best thing to do is to not ignore  that to pay attention to it to watch it and to  

最好的辦法就是不要忽視它，關注它，觀察它，並

take corrective action early and then you know  you stay on top of things and things your little  

及早採取糾正措施，然後你就會知道你對事情的處理和你的小

trip to the underworld might be a few minutes  long instead of a catastrophe that produces  

在陰間的旅行可能只有幾分鐘，而不是一場災難，產生

post-traumatic stress disorder knocks you out for  four or five years and maybe you never recover so  

創傷後應激障礙會讓你昏迷四五年，也許你永遠都無法康復，所以

one of the things you need to do if you're going  to be a human being is to prepare yourself to be  

如果你想成為一個人，你需要做的事情之一就是準備好成為

useful in the face of death and so when you have a  parent that dies which you know shatters people's  

是以，當你的父母去世時，你知道這會打破人們的

ideas often they can't even think about it if you  can't even think about that man you've got some  

如果你連想都不敢想，你就會有一些想法。

thinking to do because you need to be able to at  least think about that because otherwise you're  

因為你至少要能考慮到這一點，否則你就會

just going to be a wasteland when it happens  and you never know you could even have a higher  

當它發生時，就會變成一片荒地，你永遠不知道你甚至會有更高的

ambition maybe you could even be useful when  it happens instead of being part of the Heap  

你的野心也許會在事情發生的時候派上用場，而不是成為 "垃圾堆 "的一部分

of destroyed people who also have to be taken  care of you know and that's brutal you have to  

被毀壞的人也必須得到照顧，你知道，這是很殘酷的，你必須

be brutal to be useful in the aftermath of your  parents death you know you don't get to crumble  

在父母去世後，你知道自己不會崩潰，所以要殘忍地發揮作用

and fall apart and no you have every reason to  so you got to be kind of some tough monster to  

你有充分的理由這樣做，所以你必須成為某種強悍的怪物，才能

manage that but you want to be useful in the face  of tragedy or do you want to be pathetic well

你是想在悲劇面前變得有用，還是想變得可悲？
