EDITED TRANSCRIPT · 依据现场录音编译整理,可划线生成便签

话逐字梳一遍,你可以百分之百确定他们真的这么做了,可他们找不到我说过的任何一句话,能为他们的指控提供哪怕一点依据。所以在某种意义上,那是取消文化的一个转折点,因为当时确实有非常猛烈的取消我的尝试,结果人们跑去查我,然后想:咦,他说的东西和他被指控的东西对不上。这算是传统媒体那道堤坝开始崩塌的一部分。所以我被指控的事不仅是谎言,它还是真相的反面,而那是最深一层的谎言。在这件事上,YouTube 帮了我大忙。

休伯曼: 你确实挺过来了。我想说的是,我要谢谢你把那些视频放上 YouTube,谢谢你踏进那场冒险,因为那确实是一段至今还在继续的漫长冒险的开端。你一直在冒健康的风险,为的是理解真理并把它分享出去。我必须说,你从来不是以「我绝对正确、对所有人都适用」的姿态在做这件事,而是在你觉得自己能分享有用知识的地方去分享,而且是在可操作的层面上:真正怎么落地,比如收拾你的房间,比如去做这些事,去发现你的路,走上你的路,把你的目光设定在合适的高度,并且把这件事变成日常的实践、一生反复的实践。这真的很了不起,它显然启发了数以百万计的人,包括我自己。

我还想说,很了不起的是你自己也在继续这么做,并且让人们看得见。你的现场活动当然是一种当下的探索,你在那里提出问题、面对问题,没有事先排练。我也必须说,从你的书、你的播客,到现在事情的走向,尤其是今天你说你希望民主党强起来,我想大多数人会以为你非常右倾,我不打算替你归类,但你有意地邀请并期待一个反对派,让权力受到制衡、让事情走在对的方向上,我觉得这非常美,因为你要的是更多的平衡,而不是让知识和权力更加倾斜。我觉得这是个了不起的榜样。很明显你一直活在边缘附近,为的是激励我们去探索知识、探索古老的教诲,并把它们和我们此刻所处的位置接上。

彼得森: 这件事的回报大得难以置信。我和我妻子之所以一直巡讲,一个原因是我们能见到这么多人,他们把自己的人生重新拼了起来,成千上万的人,这太让人满足了。我们走到哪里,都会有人上来说谢谢。而当我问,具体谢什么?到底什么变了?他们告诉我。世界上没有比这更好的事了:你走遍世界,素不相识的人像朋友一样走上来,告诉你他们的生活因为他们自己的努力、也因为他们和你所做之事的相遇而好得多。如果你可以为任何事祈祷,你想不出比这更好的愿望。所以这很棒,去探索它的延续、观察它的后果,也很迷人。能身处这个位置是一种特权,是一种大到说不出口的特权。能看到像你、像弗里德曼、像克里斯·威廉姆森,还有其他那么多播客主持人在追求同样的愿景,而且做得这么成功,看到它对人们产生的巨大影响,太好了。而我确实相信,这种事以一种深度个人化的方式,对任何愿意追随自己召唤与良知的人都是敞开的。

休伯曼: 谢谢你这番话。我也同意,它是自由地向所有人敞开的,只要人们做自己,并且像你说的那样,跟随自己的好奇心与良知。谢谢你今天来,谢谢你分享你现在所处的位置和你的知识。请一定再来。我真的很享受这场对话。

彼得森: 随时。非常感谢你的邀请。看着你往前走、看着你把神经科学领域那些了不起的发现传播出去,是一件愉快的事。这是一项相当可信的事业,人们需要知道动机的生物学、情绪的生物学。看到你以如此成熟的方式,把这些带给这么多人,很好。这对所有人都是一笔划算的买卖。

休伯曼: 谢谢。这是一件出于热爱的工作,而这份热爱在不小的程度上正是由你、由我的其他播客同行、在你这里还有我的学术同行所激发的。谢谢你,乔丹。

welcome to the huberman Lab podcast where we discuss science and science-based tools for everyday [Music] life I'm Andrew huberman and I'm a professor of neurobiology and Opthalmology at Stanford School of Medicine my guest today is Dr Jordan Peterson Dr Jordan Peterson is a psychologist an author and one of the most influential public intellectuals of our time today we discuss the human animal what it means to be a human being at the level of psychology ology at the level of Neuroscience and indeed at the level of expression of different personality types within us most of us don't think about having different personalities however as we discuss today due to the activity of specific brain circuitries including the hypothalamus the prefrontal cortex and others we each and all can adopt different states of mind that powerfully influence our emotions our thoughts and our actions and in so doing we are different people depending on those states of mind today's discussion is both an intellectual one and a practical
欢迎收听 Huberman Lab 播客,在这里我们探讨科学以及基于科学的日常生活[音乐]工具。我是 Andrew Huberman,我是斯坦福医学院神经生物学和眼科学教授。今天我的嘉宾是 Jordan Peterson 博士。Jordan Peterson 博士是一位心理学家、作家,也是我们这个时代最具影响力的公共知识分子之一。今天我们要聊的是人这种动物,聊聊从心理学层面、从神经科学层面,乃至从我们内在不同人格类型的表达层面来看,身为人类到底意味着什么。我们大多数人不会想到自己拥有多重人格,但正如我们今天所讨论的,由于特定脑回路的活动,包括下丘脑、前额叶皮层等等,我们每个人都可能进入不同的心理状态,而这些状态会强烈影响我们的情绪、我们的想法和我们的行为。在这个过程中,随着心理状态的不同,我们其实是不同的人。今天的对话既有思想性,也非常

one you will learn where and how to place your thoughts you will learn the relationship between the Call to Adventure and responsibility and as Dr Peterson emphasizes in his new book we who wrestle with God he emphasizes the use of story in this case biblical stories to understand oneself and to best guide one's actions towards the most positive and generative outcomes we discuss the self romantic relationships and commitments the family community and culture we also discuss the media politics cancel culture things like social media and pornography shifting masculine and feminine roles and the innate human drive to create action at a distance both in space and in time today's discussion is both intellectual and practical Dr Peterson emphasizes how to use different sources of story philosophy Psychology and Neuroscience to understand and best guide one's decision making process indeed he discusses the tight relationship between the Call to Adventure and responsibility as a trustable framework from moving
实用。你会学到该把自己的念头放在哪里、怎么放;你会学到「冒险的召唤」与责任之间的关系;正如 Peterson博士在他的新书《We Who Wrestle with God》中所强调的,他强调运用故事——在这里是圣经故事——来理解自己,并引导自己的行为走向最积极、最有创造力的结果。我们会谈到自我、恋爱关系与承诺、家庭、社群和文化。我们也会谈到媒体、政治、取消文化,比如社交媒体和色情内容,谈到不断变化的男性与女性角色,以及人类与生俱来的那种想要在空间和时间上产生远距离影响的驱动力。今天的对话既有思想性也有实用性。Peterson 博士强调如何运用不同来源的故事、哲学、心理学和神经科学,来理解并最好地指导一个人的决策过程。事实上,他谈到了以下两者之间紧密的关系:“冒险的召唤”以及责任,如何成为一个值得信赖的框架,推动我们在人生中迈向最好的

forward in life towards One's best possible outcomes and I'm certain that by the end of today's discussion you will be thinking about your own neural circuits that is the connections in your brain that drive emotions thoughts and behavior as well as your psychology your different states of mind and you are going to have a number of different tools and Frameworks with which to apply all that knowledge toward the best possible outcomes before we begin I'd like to emphasize that this podcast is separate from my teaching and research roles at Stanford it is however part of my desire and effort to bring zero cost to Consumer information about science and science related tools to the general public in keeping with that theme I'd like to thank the sponsors of today's podcast our first sponsor is David David makes a protein bar unlike any other it has 28 grams of protein only 150 calories and zero grams of sugar that's right 28 gram of protein and 75% of its calories come from protein These Bars
可能结果。我相信,在今天的讨论结束时,你会开始思考自己的神经回路,也就是你大脑中那些驱动情绪、思维和行为的连接,以及你的心理状态,你的各种不同的心理状态。而且你将获得一系列不同的工具和框架,用来把所有这些知识应用到实现最好的结果上。在开始之前,我想强调一下,本播客与我在斯坦福的教学和研究工作是相互独立的。不过,它也是我的一个心愿和努力的一部分,那就是向大众零成本地提供关于科学以及科学相关工具的信息。秉持这个主题,我要感谢今天播客的赞助商。我们的第一个赞助商是 David。David 做的蛋白棒与众不同,它含有 28 克蛋白质,只有 150 卡路里,而且零克糖。没错,28 克蛋白质,而且它 75% 的热量都来自蛋白质。David 的这些蛋白棒味道也非常棒。我最喜欢的口味是巧克力曲奇

from David also taste amazing my favorite flavor is chocolate chip cookie dough but then again I also like the chocolate fudge flavored one and I also like the cake flavored one basically I like all the flavors they're incredibly delicious for me personally I strive to eat mostly Whole Foods however when I'm in a rush or I'm away from home or I'm just looking for a quick afternoon snack I often find that I'm looking for a high quality protein source with David I'm able to get 28 gam of protein with the calories of a snack which makes it very easy to hit my protein goals of 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight each day and it allows me to do that without taking in excess calories I typically eat a David bar in the early afternoon or even midafternoon if I want to bridge that gap between lunch and dinner I like that it's a little bit sweet so it tastes like a tasty snack but it's also giving me that 28 grams of very high quality protein with just 150 calories if you would like to try David you can
饼干面团味,不过话说回来,我也喜欢巧克力软糖味的那款,还喜欢蛋糕味的那款。基本上我每种口味都喜欢,它们都太好吃了。就我个人而言,我尽量以全食物为主,但当我赶时间、不在家,或者只是想找点下午的快手零食时,我常常发现自己需要一份高质量的蛋白质来源。有了 David,我就能以一份零食的热量摄入 28 克蛋白质,这让我很容易达到每天每磅体重摄入 1 克蛋白质的目标,而且做到这一点的同时不必摄入过多热量,我通常会在下午早些时候,甚至下午中段吃一根 David 蛋白棒,用来填补午餐和晚餐之间的空档。我喜欢它有一点点甜,所以吃起来像是可口的零食,但同时它还能提供 28 克非常优质的蛋白质,而热量只有 150 卡。如果你想试试 David,可以

first of all we have an autonomic physiology I think we'd both agree on that that regulates our sleepiness and wakefulness our breathing our heart rate stuff that runs in the background and then we have a lot of circuitry devoted to what I would call impulses things that we desire we want to move toward repetitive behaviors and we also have some impulses to avoid things that are putrid painful Etc that's all in there like it is in other we should talk about the idea of impulse in relationship to that characterization okay yeah because there's an important there's an important point to be made on the there you pay a price for characterizing that as impulse and and I'd like to explore that with you because it's crucial great we'll Circle back to impulse I'd like to do that and then we have a lot of circuitry people will hear about it as executive function prefrontal circuitry which does many things but I like to think of um as a circuit that can say and here I'm borrowing from a previous guest who's a
这一点,它调节我们的困倦和清醒、呼吸、心率,这些在后台运行的东西。然后我们有大量神经回路专门负责我所说的冲动——我们渴望的东西,我们想要靠近的东西,重复性的行为,我们也有一些冲动是去回避那些腐臭的、令人痛苦的东西等等。这些都在里面,就像其他——我们应该聊聊“冲动”这个概念和这种描述之间的关系。好的,好,因为有一个很重要的点需要指出,把这些描述成“冲动”是要付出代价的,我想和你一起探讨这个问题,因为这至关重要。很好,我们待会儿回到“冲动”这个话题,我很想聊。然后我们还有大量的神经回路,人们会听到它被称为执行功能,前额叶回路,它做很多事情,但我喜欢把它想成一个能说“嘘”的回路——这里我是借用之前一位嘉宾的说法,他是一位

neuro surgeon it can say sh or exert what's called top- down suppression on these what I'm calling impulses it can we should talk about that too the suppression idea and the inhibition idea in general great because there's I think there's a parallel problem there to the notion of impulse that's very much worth delving into great yeah so circuitry that's devoted to our ability to self- inhibit the desire to reach for something or to avoid something we can push ourselves into things that would otherwise be aversive we can avoid doing things that would otherwise drive us to quote unquote just do it anyway and then we have what I think of as our default settings kind of how we're operating in the world with respect to food other people ourselves our thoughts if we don't intervene with ourselves and these default settings are of course established by both nature a genetic program that wires up circuitry but also Nur because of the immense neuroplasticity that occurs in the first 25 years plus
神经外科医生——它能喊停,或者对我所说的这些冲动施加所谓的自上而下的抑制,它能……我们也应该聊聊那个,关于压制的概念,以及广义上的抑制概念。很好,因为我觉得那里存在一个和“冲动”这个说法类似的问题,非常值得深入探讨。很好,是的。所以这部分回路专门负责我们自我抑制的能力——抑制去够取某样东西的欲望,或者抑制回避的欲望。我们可以强迫自己去做那些本来会让人反感的事,也可以避免去做那些本来会驱使我们“就是要做”的事。然后我们还有我所谓的默认设置,也就是在我们不加干预的情况下,我们在这个世界上是如何运作的——对待食物、他人、自己、自己的想法。这些默认设置当然既由先天决定,也就是连接神经回路的基因程序,也由后天塑造,因为在生命的头 25 年,尤其是最初那几年,

of life but especially those first years of life and then of course we have neuroplasticity this incredible gift that humans have more of than any other species as far as we know which is we can decide to make changes now the reason I lay out this framework as opposed to starting with a question is because there are so many amazing questions that you ask in this book you know we who wrestle with God I mean trying to wrap our arms in Minds around this huge set of questions and it occurred to me just step back from all of that and ask is part of the reason that we have a concept of God that there are multiple religions is that the consequence of Some Humans at some point realizing or perhaps God himself realizing that what we are equipped with as humans which we just described is insufficient to allow us to to evolve as a species and be the best version of ourselves I think this for me really is like the central question of at least my life which is to what extent do I need to intervene with my default settings
会发生极其巨大的神经可塑性变化。然后当然还有神经可塑性,这是一份不可思议的礼物,据我们所知,人类拥有的神经可塑性比任何其他物种都多,也就是说我们可以决定做出改变。我之所以先铺陈这个框架而不是直接提问,是因为你在这本书里提出了太多了不起的问题。你知道,《我们与神摔跤》(We Who Wrestle with God),我是说,试图用头脑去把握这一大堆问题。我突然想到,不如从这一切中退一步,问一个问题:我们之所以有“神”这个概念、之所以存在多种宗教,是不是部分因为某些人在某个时刻意识到——或者也许是神自己意识到——我们人类所配备的东西,也就是我们刚才描述的这些,不足以让我们作为一个物种进化,成为最好的自己?我觉得对我来说,这真的是至少我这一生的核心问题:我在多大程度上需要干预我的默认设置,

rewire them engage that prefrontal cortex and you know push down on some repetitive or aversive behaviors and to what extent can we do that maybe and to what end and to what end and maybe we need a rule book uh you know I I am starting to believe and I'm now 49 years old that we need a rule book that the neural circuitry that's encased within our skulls is not sufficient to allow us to navigate through life our best we kind of know that we need a rule book even you you admitted that in some ways implicitly when you discussed the fact that we have a 25 years socialization window and what that means is that we have to interact with other people and our traditions in order to set us right and that's so complex it takes 25 years and so we're learning something from that and that's indication that our let's say default biological settings are insufficient to guide us into the future right and so then the question is well what is it that you're learning as a consequence of that socialization process and you can think about it and
重新连接它们,调动前额叶皮层,去压制某些重复性或回避性的行为?以及我们在多大程度上能做到这一点?也许吧。以及为了什么目的?为了什么目的。也许我们需要一本规则手册。呃,你知道,我开始相信——我现在 49 岁了——我们需要一本规则手册,我们颅骨里装着的那些神经回路,不足以让我们以最好的状态度过一生。我们其实多少知道我们需要一本规则手册,你刚才在某种意义上也默认了这一点,就是你谈到我们有一个 25 年的社会化窗口期。这意味着我们必须与他人以及我们的传统互动,才能把我们调教好。而这个过程复杂到需要花 25 年,所以我们从中学到了一些东西,这表明我们的——姑且说是默认的生物学设置——不足以引导我们走向未来。对。那么问题就来了:在这个社会化过程中,你到底学到了什么?你可以把它想成——人们也确实这样想过——一系列针对低阶

02从抑制式社会化到整合式社会化
10:18
people have thought about it as a a series of complex inhibitions of lower order motivational States impulses but I'm not very happy with the inhibition model because inhibition is unsophisticated socialization integration is sophisticated socialization so here here's a way of I really learned this I think from contrasting Freud with P because Freud's model super ego is really an inhibition model and Freud was a neurologist P's model was very different he thought of the properly socialized person as someone who had integrated their lower order we'll call them impulses for now into a sustainable voluntary structure that regulated them and gave them all their proper place that's very different than an inhibitory model so for example I'll give you an example from my own life my son was quite an um willful young child wonder where he got it from yeah well fair enough and and my father was you know a formidable character and so my son liked to do what he liked to do and it took him it took quite a bit of tussling with him to help
动机状态、也就是冲动的复杂抑制。但我对这个抑制模型不太满意,因为抑制是一种不成熟的社会化,而整合才是成熟的社会化。所以,我是这样理解的——我觉得我真正弄懂这一点,是通过对比弗洛伊德和皮亚杰,因为弗洛伊德的超我模型本质上是个抑制模型,而弗洛伊德是个神经病学家。皮亚杰的模型则非常不同,他认为一个被恰当社会化的人,是把他们的低阶——我们暂且称之为冲动——整合进了一个可持续的、自愿的结构里,这个结构调节它们,并给予每一个恰当的位置。这和抑制模型非常不一样。举个例子,我举一个我自己生活中的例子。我儿子小时候是个相当固执任性的孩子。真想不出他是随了谁。是啊,说得也对。而且我父亲,你知道,是个很有分量的人物。所以我儿子喜欢做他想做的事,而要帮他做到这一点,我跟他费了不少周折——我不会说那是“抑制”,或者说

him I wouldn't say inhibit that or regulate to integrate it and one of the consequences of that was he became a very good athlete and so why is that relevant well because it wasn't like he stopped being assertive or even aggressive it's that he learned how to put that aggression in its proper place in relationship to a goal that was much more sophisticated than merely getting his own way moment to moment okay so integration is a better like a a very sophisticated athlete a team athlete in particular isn't not aggressive and they're not inhibiting their aggression on the playing field they may now and then when they're provoked let's say but all things considered what they've done is subordinate their aggression to a higher order goal that enables them to be more successful but also to be successful in a maximally social and sustainable way and PJ's point and he's absolutely right about this is that that's much better conceptualized as integration and then with regard to impulse because I said I would return to
调节从而整合它,而这样做的后果之一就是他成了一名非常优秀的运动员,那么这一点为什么有意义呢?因为这并不是说他不再自信果敢、甚至不再有攻击性了,而是他学会了把那种攻击性放在恰当的位置上,让它服务于一个远比时时刻刻只想着满足自己更复杂精深的目标。好,所以说整合更像是——一个非常高水平的运动员,尤其是团队项目的运动员,并不是没有攻击性的,他们在赛场上也不是在压抑自己的攻击性,当然被激怒的时候偶尔可能会,但是总体来看,他们所做的是把自己的攻击性服从于一个更高层次的目标,这让他们能够更成功,而且是以一种最大程度社会化、可持续的方式取得成功。PJ 的观点——他在这一点上完全正确——就是,把这个理解成整合要好得多。然后关于冲动,因为我说过我会回过头来讲

that I I spent a lot of time walking through the behavioral literature right and a lot of that was derived from animal experiments and it was predicated on the idea that if you could explain something on the basis of a deterministic reflex you should and there's some there's something to be said for that hypothesis don't make your theory any more complex than it needs to be how far can you get with with a theory of chain reflexes a deterministic theory the behavior has gone a long way they couldn't get to the highest strata of human endeavor with a chained reflex Theory but there was a lot of things they did that were very good but one of the things they made a big mistake about was to conceptualize motivational States let's say as impulses or drives that's not sufficient because it fails to take into account the effect of those States on perception so it's much better to think of a motivated State this is what helped me integrate behavioral Theory with psychoanalytic theory especially the the
这个问题:我花了很多时间梳理行为主义的文献,其中很多都来自动物实验,它建立在这样一个理念上:如果你能用一种决定论式的反射来解释某个现象,那你就应该这么解释,这个假设也确实有它的道理——不要把你的理论搞得比它需要的更复杂。用链式反射理论、用决定论式理论能走多远呢?行为主义走得很远,他们没法靠链式反射理论抵达人类活动的最高层面,但他们做的很多事情都非常出色。不过他们犯的一个大错误,就是把动机状态理解成所谓的冲动或驱力,这是不够的,因为它没有考虑到这些状态对知觉的影响。所以更好的方式是把一个动机状态看作——这正是帮助我把行为主义理论与精神分析理论整合起来的东西,尤其是关于宗教活动的精神分析理论——更好的方式是把

psychoanalytic theory of religious Endeavor it's much better to think of those lower order motivational States as personalities their subpersonalities they have their perceptions they have their objects of perception they have their uh cognitive rationalizations you certainly see that in addiction let's say they have their emotions like they are small personalities unidimensional very narrow-minded personalities but they're personalities they're not impulses so are they personalities within our what most people would think of as our larger personality I mean what I'm hearing is that let's say somebody's an addict it depends on how integrated you are because you could be nothing but a succession of dominion of subpersonalities that's what a 2-year-old is right and so you have to build an integrating personality on top of those subpersonalities but not in a manner that inhibits them that means your socialization is in unsophisticated even Freud knew this because even though he had basically an inhibitory model of say
那些低层次的动机状态看作人格,是子人格,它们有自己的知觉,有自己的知觉对象,有自己的认知合理化,这一点在成瘾里看得特别清楚,它们有自己的情绪,它们就像是一个个小人格,单一维度的、非常狭隘的人格,但它们是人格,不是冲动。所以它们是存在于我们——大多数人所理解的那个更大的人格之内的人格吗?我听到的意思是,比如说某个人是个瘾君子——这取决于你整合得怎么样,因为你可能完全只是一连串子人格轮流当家作主,两岁小孩就是这样,所以你必须在这些子人格之上建立一个起整合作用的人格,但不能以压抑它们的方式来建立,那意味着你的社会化是不成熟的。就连弗洛伊德也明白这一点,因为尽管他基本上持有一种压抑式的模型,比如超我的调节作用,但他相信

super ego regulation um he believed that a healthy personality would have the impulse of aggression and the impulse of sexuality to take two major lower order motivational States into account would have them integrated into the functioning ego the the issue is integration and so what you're doing when you're social like okay when when my son for example would become willful in a manner that I regarded as counterproductive for him and the household and and the rule would be you can't act that way because if you act that way people aren't going to approve of you and that's a bad plan so you have to you have to control that because it's not going to work out well for you if you don't okay so I use timeout now timeout is an effective disciplinary strategy for social creatures because we don't like isolation and so timeout basically takes child puts the child in isolation that produces a pain like response because social isolation produces pure inhibition right well well that's the question you see that's the
一个健康的人格会把攻击的冲动和性的冲动——举这两个主要的低层次动机状态为例——考虑进去,会把它们整合进运转中的自我。关键在于整合。所以你在做的当你在进行社会化的时候,比如说,当我儿子表现出一种我认为对他和这个家庭都适得其反的任性时,规矩就是:你不能那样做,因为如果你那样做,别人就不会认可你,那不是个好办法,所以你得控制住,因为如果你那样做,事情对你来说不会有好结果你不会——好的,所以我会用“隔离反省”(timeout)。隔离反省之所以是一种有效的管教策略,是因为对于社会性动物来说,我们不喜欢被孤立。所以隔离反省基本上就是把孩子放到一个孤立的环境里,这会产生一种类似疼痛的反应,因为社会性孤立会产生纯粹的抑制,对吧?嗯,问题就在这儿,你看,这就是

问题所在。他必须抑制自己当下的欲望,比如说想到处乱跑,因为他得坐在台阶上。但你看,我在那里立了一条规矩,规矩就是:只要你能管住自己,你就可以离开台阶。好,所以现在的问题是,“管住自己”意味着什么?一种解释是抑制;另一种解释是,不不,他是在发展一个更高阶的人格结构,很可能是皮层层面的,它拥有足够的支配力,使得那些底层的动机状态现在能够被整合起来,并被恰当地安置到一个层级结构中。当我坚持要求他调节自己的行为,并且在他重新能够做一个社会性生物、而不是屈从于一时冲动的时候允许他离开台阶,我其实是在强化那些底层动机状态的皮层整合。现在你可能会认为,人这个有机体来到这个世界时带着一片相互交战的原始动机状态的战场——这是个完全合理的看法。我们知道其中很多是由下丘脑介导的,比如杏仁核,还有这些低阶的、在生物学意义上某种程度上

被预先编程好的系统。那么,这些系统究竟应该以何种具体方式表达出来,以及它们将以何种具体方式被层级化地整合起来,会在极大程度上取决于那一时刻社会的具体情况——这也正是为什么你需要那个 18 年的框架,去打磨这些系统显现出来的方式。但我认为,最好的理解方式是:这是把动机状态层级化地整合进一个总揽全局的、更高阶的人格之中,而这个人格不被当下所束缚,它会把中期和长期都考虑进去,也不像两岁小孩那样只顾自己,因为如果你想成功,你就必须把别人也考虑进去。所以,在我看来,这正是皮层发挥作用的地方,这就是它在做的事:它在拓展——它在把那些低阶的、受时间束缚的、纯粹利己的动机状态,整合进一个远为

宏大的世界图景,这个图景把未来和他人都纳入考量。而这很难,非常难。我特别喜欢这一点,我来说说为什么。呃,因为我理解的前额叶皮层,它的主要工作是依情境而定的策略设定。对,依情境而定——依情境而定,这是个关键问题。你提到了下丘脑,你知道它基本上就只有两颗弹珠那么大,位于我们上颚顶部的上方,是个非常非常小的脑区,里面主要是一些开关。我这么说是什么意思呢?只要神经外科医生刺激下丘脑某个小分区里的神经元,你就会得到要么是暴怒,要么是性冲动,或者是与无生命物体交配。我是说,这在非人灵长类和人类身上都做过——无法控制的口渴,无法控制的口渴、饥饿、饥饿感的完全消失。我是说,所有这些基本驱力都在那里运作,它们就像一个个开关。而前额叶皮层可以直接连到下丘

下丘脑,而前额叶皮层负责的是依情境而定的学习、依情境而定的决策。我特别高兴你引入了“改变冲动”这个概念,就在你举的那个例子里,你儿子那种想要具有攻击性、或者以某种方式撒野的冲动,在那个当下并不适合家庭环境,你刚才说的两点真的很让我有共鸣——前额叶皮层,他的前额叶皮层必须学会:无论他自己感受到什么、他自己有什么欲望,都需要被放在他人的意愿、欲望和需求的语境里来看待,所以这对他自己蓬勃发展也是必要的,对吧,这不仅仅是为了别人而牺牲自己的欲望,而是说,不不,孩子,如果你——我们都知道这一点——如果你在四岁时对待他人的方式跟你两岁时一模一样,尤其如果你还稍微偏向攻击性的那一端,你就交不到朋友,你这辈子都会被孤立、被疏远

so that 2-year-old impulsiveness that has its place two it starts to modify radically at three and it better be fixed by four and the reason for that is that you have to integrate yourself into the social World which means in the case of children it means well you want to have friends and so the reason you're you're you're disciplining your child isn't to teach them that what they're doing is bad you know in that simple in in that simple sense that you might interpret punishment it's like no you need to be more sophisticated well why well you have to be able to take turns well why well because you no one like you otherwise well what's the problem with that well first of all we're hyp social like you can punish Psychopaths by putting them in isolation that's how social human beings are you take the most antisocial human beings there are and you can punish them by making them be alone right so that's how social we are so you want to you you're you're modeling for your child a strategy of of even satisfaction for his
所以两岁时那种冲动性——它在两岁有它的位置——到三岁就开始大幅度改变,而且最好在四岁之前就被纠正过来,原因是你必须把自己整合进社会世界,对孩子来说,这意味着你想要有朋友,所以你管教孩子的原因并不是要教他们说他们做的事是「坏的」——不是你可能理解的那种简单的惩罚意义上的坏——而是说,不,你需要变得更精细一些。为什么?因为你得学会轮流。为什么?因为不然没人会喜欢你。那这有什么问题呢?首先,我们是高度社会性的,你惩罚精神病态者的方式就是把他们单独关起来人类就是这么社会化的,你拿最反社会的人来看,惩罚他们的办法就是让他们独处,对吧,我们就是这么社会性的。所以你是在给孩子示范一种策略——一种连满足他自己基本驱力的方式,都能以最精细的方式把语境考虑进去的

他叫Richard Tremblay,我记得Richard的实验室曾一度用掉了魁北克全部社会科学经费的三分之一,他是个极其成功的研究者,他对反社会行为非常感兴趣,一直试图追溯其根源。我们实验室的研究逐渐得出的结论之一,源自这样一个观察:如果你拿两岁的孩子——如果你把不同年龄的孩子分组,你可以设想你有一组两岁的、一组三岁的、一组四岁的,一直到十五岁,然后让他们自由互动——两岁那组是最有攻击性的。但如果你进一步分析两岁这组本身,你会发现所有有攻击性的孩子都是男孩,而且只占其中一小部分,大约5%。所以如果你把一群两岁孩子放在一起,5%的男孩会踢人、抢东西、打人和咬人,这就是我们对「早发型反社会行为」的定义。这些孩子里绝大多数

这条回路,死的时候也还带着这条回路。大多数人是这样,但显然这些孩子没有学会压制这条回路,对吧或者说没有整合它。一个八岁的孩子咬人是很可怕的事。一岁的孩子咬人有点让人担心,两岁的话,好吧,我们得在这方面下点功夫,到了八岁还咬人,大家就开始担心了。我想,即使不了解精神病理学文献,任何人看到自家八岁孩子咬别的孩子都会非常担心,不只是因为造成的伤害,而是因为它太不一样了,比动手打人或吐口水要原始得多。没错这表明精细的社会化几乎完全缺失,他们真的还停留在下丘脑里是啊,正是如此。而且,尤其如果你的下丘脑本来就偏向暴怒,偏向防御性或掠食性攻击,那就是坏消息了。那么这一切的结论是什么呢?结论就是

没错,确实存在一小部分孩子,他们的默认反应没有被社会化,而我们把这跟精神病态和长期犯罪联系在一起。有一点非常值得理解:我们所看到的很多病理现象——我认为自恋以及某些形式的享乐主义也一样——本质上其实就是社会化的失败,对吧。而这有非常有趣的政治含义,因为它还意味着——想象一下冲动式的自我满足本身就是一个人格,那种追求冲动式自我满足的欲望本身就是一个人格,带着它自己的政治观点。尼采在19世纪末说过,每一种驱力都试图以自己的精神来构建哲学。绝妙这是个绝妙的洞见,跟把下丘脑驱力仅仅设想成一串决定论式的冲动链条截然不同。还有另一件值得考虑的事,关于下丘脑动机对知觉的影响——你刚才说的那只小鼠

that mouse that you talked about who's attack system is activated electronically see when that glove is dropped you can see that there's a relationship with perception because if there's no target for attack that's biologically relevant in the environment there's no impulse so you could imagine that what happens is when you activate those neurons is that there's a set of perceptual stimuli that are much more likely to be classified as a defeatable enemy now even a glove will do it right right so you drop in a glove and that's now per ceed as defeatable enemy or perhaps threat because we don't know exactly what the perception would be but then you see then it's the perception driving the behavior that's not an Impulse right right that's more like a strategy and that's it's un I really started to understand some of the literature on the evolution of religious thinking when I started to understand motivational States as personalities because one of the things that you see this is so cool something I tried to
攻击系统是通过电子方式激活的,你看当那只手套被丢进去的时候,你可以看出这跟感知是有关系的,因为如果环境中没有生物学上相关的攻击目标,就不会产生冲动。所以你可以想象事情是这样的:当你激活那些神经元时,就会有一组感知刺激变得更有可能被归类为可以被击败的敌人,现在连一只手套都能起作用,对吧对,所以你丢进一只手套,它现在就被感知成可击败的敌人,或者也许是威胁,因为我们并不确切知道那种感知到底是什么样的,但接着你就会看到,是感知在驱动行为,那就不是冲动了,对吧对,那更像是一种策略。这个真的……我开始理解一些关于宗教思维演化的文献,是在我开始把动机状态理解为人格的时候,因为你会看到的其中一件事是这个太酷了,我曾经试着跟道金斯聊过这个——有史以来最伟大的宗教史学家

talk to Dawkins about the the greatest historian of religions who ever lived was mer eliad and he wrote a sequence of brilliant books um the sacred and the profane is the best one to start with very short book very elegant book and what ilad documented across the world was the pattern by which polytheistic belief systems turned into monotheistic belief systems that parallels maturation it's the same thing and so the polytheistic Gods tend to be rep representations of of motivational States I I I'm going to pause you there because I think this is extremely important um so the god of war or the god of love the goddess of love or the god of love exactly exactly that um so the idea that the different gods are the uh reflective of different let's just let's just we'll just say it as as neuroscientists as different hypothalamic and and related circuits well why wouldn't they be Gods you know beware of falling under their minion beware of becoming their play things and the other thing that's very interesting
是米尔恰·伊利亚德,他写了一系列精彩的书,嗯,《神圣与世俗》是最适合入门的一本,非常短的一本书,非常优雅的一本书。伊利亚德在全世界范围内记录下来的,是多神论信仰体系转变为一神论信仰体系的模式,而这跟人的成熟过程是平行的,是同一回事。所以那些多神教的神祇往往是动机状态的表征——我,我要在这里打断你一下,因为我觉得这极其重要,嗯,所以战神,或者爱神,爱之女神或者爱之男神——完全正确,完全正确对,嗯,所以这个想法是,不同的神祇是不同的……我们就这么说吧,我们就直接说作为神经科学家,面对不同的下丘脑及相关回路,你会想,为什么它们不能是神明呢,你懂吧小心别沦为它们的爪牙,小心别成为它们的玩物,还有另一件非常有意思的事

you see is that you have to also understand that these don't exist independently of historical context so let's say rage it's like there's a there's a there's a literature of Rage there's a culture of Rage there are patterns of Rage that are played out in drama and literature like it's not only that the motivational impulse is a personality it's a personality with a history and a philosophy and if you don't think think it can possess you you don't know very much about possession so like for example if you're fighting with someone and you and you become enraged as you said your temporal purview shrinks and your notion of what constitutes Victory is radically transfigured so if you're fighting with someone you love you might want to defeat them or even hurt them independently of the fact that you actually love them well then you think well you're you're gripped by these impulses no no you're inhabited by the spirit of Rage and if you're a sophisticated person there's going to be an endless stream of
你看,你还得明白,这些东西并不是脱离历史语境而独立存在的,比如说愤怒,就好像有关于愤怒的文献,有愤怒的文化,有愤怒的种种模式,它们在戏剧和文学中不断上演不只是那种动机冲动本身是一个人格,它是一个带着历史和哲学的人格如果你觉得它不可能附身于你,那你对「附身」这回事了解得太少了比如说,如果你在和某人争吵,然后你被激怒了,就像你说的,你的时间视野会收窄,而你对「什么算胜利」的理解会被彻底改写,所以如果你是在和你爱的人争吵,你可能会想击败对方,甚至伤害对方,完全不顾你其实是爱他们的这个事实,那你会想,好吧,你是被这些冲动攫住了,不不,你是被愤怒之灵所栖居,而如果你是个有学识的人,那接踵而来的会是

sophisticated intellectual rationalizations that come along with that possession right it's full-fledged personality and it's one of the things you see with people who are psychotic you know who drift off into the landscape of their imagination is that they dwell on such states of possession so for example these kids that shoot up High School like they're fantasizing under the influence of rage and resentment for thousands of hours that just takes control of them and it's not it's not a simple impulse it's like no they've they've inverted the you could think they've inverted the neurological order and the god of rage is now the what would you say the leading personality of integration or the god of resentful rage even worse and the circuit May R run in reverse my colleague David Spiegel at who's our uh Vice chair of Psychiatry at Stanford has done some beautiful experiments examining the relationship between uh prefrontal cortical areas and the insula a brain area that has a map of our internal body State interoception
源源不断的、精致的理智化辩解,伴随着那种附身状态,对吧,它是一个完整成型的人格这也是你在精神病性状态的人身上会看到的现象之一,那些人飘进了自己想象的景观里,他们会长久沉溺于这种被附身的状态,比如那些在高中里开枪扫射的孩子他们在愤怒和怨恨的驱使下幻想了成千上万个小时,那东西就这样控制了他们,这不是一个简单的冲动,不是,他们已经颠倒了,你可以认为他们颠倒了神经层级的秩序愤怒之神现在就成了——你会怎么说——整合后的主导人格,或者说怨恨性愤怒之神甚至更糟,而且这个回路可能会反向运行。我在斯坦福的同事 David Spiegel,他是我们精神科的副主任,做过一些非常漂亮的实验,研究了前额叶皮层区域和脑岛之间的关系。脑岛这个脑区有一张我们内部身体状态的地图,也就是内感受,你知道的,我们感知自己内部运作的能力等等。总之,在某些情况下,包括抑郁症,前额叶皮层和脑岛之间的

怪兽,而且是他们自己养大的。它会长大,因为它不断被多巴胺的刺激强化随着它长大,它支配一切的能力也在增强。所以当出现和成瘾相关的线索时——这就是为什么人们会复吸——当他们从戒断中心出来,处理完生理上的戒断反应之后,回到原来的环境,急性的渴求就会显现出来,比如碰到一个以前一起吸毒的朋友,然后突然间那只怪兽就活过来了,它会把其他一切都关掉。而且它有自己的人格,它会撒谎。成瘾行为的一个标志就是撒谎,而这些谎言就是那个子回路、那个子人格为自己的病态行为找的合理化借口。这一切又被多巴胺的刺激进一步强化。就好像每个人体内都住着好几个人。这是最不可思议的多神论式的异教信仰。多神论,是啊,那是默认状态。没错,那就是两岁小孩的状态。我想先插播一下,感谢我们的赞助商 AG1。AG1 是一款集维生素、矿物质、益生菌于一体的

witnessed of the power of belief in God I'm just going to say it as as it occurred uh I have a good friend um who for many years struggled with alcohol and drug addiction of multiple kinds incredibly kind person incredibly successful in his career married two beautiful children multiple relapses yeah crashed his truck at 7 in the morning after getting intoxicated at 6:30 in the morning got out of that one happened again and again multiple rehab centers of the sort of standard treatment Etc and then ultimately enough happened within that whole set of circumstances that his wife said you know this is it you've got to solve this or we just can't be with you very scary situation for everybody involved including him who absolutely adored his family he told us uh his friends that he was going to go to a a a center here in Los Angeles that treats addiction with essentially religion a belief in God he was already fairly religious um most most Sundays he attended church and things of that sort and you can imagine
呃,我有个好朋友,他多年来一直挣扎于酒精和多种药物成瘾,人非常善良,事业也非常成功,已婚,有两个漂亮的孩子,但多次复发。是啊,他早上六点半喝醉,七点就把自己的皮卡撞了。那次算是躲过去了,可后来又一次次发生。去过多家戒瘾中心,就是那种标准疗法之类的。然后最终,在这整套情况里发生的事情多到一个地步,他妻子说,你知道吗,就到这儿了,你必须解决这个问题,否则我们没法再跟你一起生活。对所有相关的人来说这都是非常可怕的处境,包括他自己,因为他绝对深爱着他的家人。他告诉我们——他的朋友们——说他要去洛杉矶这边的一家中心,那家中心基本上是用宗教、用对上帝的信仰来治疗成瘾的。他本来就相当虔诚,呃,大多数周日他都会去教堂,诸如此类。你可以想象,我们所有人,包括我自己,当时都觉得,行吧兄弟,那祝你好运。是啊,我

we all thought including myself like okay dude like good luck yeah I hope this works but like I would say a zero minus one confidence in his ability to get and stay sober he just had not succeeded prior to this he's been sober more than four years now he got out of there and never looked back and I wonder now uh whether something something must have changed in his brain by adopting what was essentially a different incentive structure right different incentive structure but fear wasn't doing it before fear of extreme consequences which were on the table at that time um when he went in weren't enough something about going there and the work that he did there allowed him to then it's almost like he he got another prefrontal cortex a more powerful prefrontal cortex so maybe we could talk about that well that's a that's not a bad way of thinking about what it is that people are trying to do when they say pray MH they so you can invite in spirits to possess you that's a good way of thinking about it I know that's odd
希望这有用,但要我说,我对他能戒酒并保持清醒的信心是零,甚至是负一。他在这之前就从来没成功过。他现在已经戒了四年多了。他从那儿出来后就再也没回头过。我现在在想,呃,是不是他大脑里发生了某种变化,因为他采纳了一套本质上不同的激励结构,对吧?不同的激励结构。但恐惧在此之前是不管用的,对极端后果的恐惧——那些后果当时是真实摆在桌面上的,呃,在他进去的时候——都不足以奏效。但去那里以及他在那里所做的功课,有某种东西让他后来……这几乎就像是,他又多长了一个前额叶皮层——一个更强大的前额叶皮层,所以也许我们可以聊聊这个。嗯,这其实是个不错的角度,去思考人们说"祈祷"时到底想做什么。嗯,你可以邀请灵体进入并占据你——这是个很好的理解方式。我知道这个说法有点怪,但当你沉溺在自己的愤怒里时,你做的就是这件事,对吧。现在想象一下,你把

terminology but that's what you do when you dwell on your rage right right now imagine that you're doing that in the most positive possible Direction so what you're doing is you're generating a hypothesis about the mode of conduct and perception that would best typify you if you were ideal and then establishing a relationship with that and inviting it in that's what the in Evangelical protest are doing when they formulate a personal relationship with Jesus Christ that's exactly what they're doing now on the addiction side so I studied alcoholism for years that was the T Target of my dissertation in the first 20 papers that I published I knew the alcoholism literature very well and the neurological end of it as well and it was known among alcohol researchers been known for 60 years more even that the most reliable treatment for alcoholism was religious transformation that's and this is well accepted among researchers in the field who have no religious affiliation whatsoever and I do believe that a huge
这件事往最积极的方向去做。所以你在做的,其实是对一种行为和感知的模式提出一个假设——如果你处在理想状态,什么样的行为和感知最能代表你——然后与那个东西建立关系,并邀请它进来。福音派新教徒在与耶稣基督建立个人关系时,做的就是这件事,一模一样。现在说说成瘾这一面。我研究酒精成瘾很多年,那是我博士论文的主题,也是我发表的头二十篇论文的内容。我对酒精成瘾的文献非常熟悉,神经学那一块也很熟。在酒精研究者当中,这一点已经被知晓六十年甚至更久了:最可靠的治疗方式就是宗教性的转变。这一点在该领域的研究者中是被广泛接受的,哪怕他们完全没有任何宗教背景。我确实相信,其中很大一部分原因是激励结构的重组。你刚才举例说,

part of that is a consequence of incentive restructuring so you said for example with your friend that fear wouldn't work well alcohol is a pretty good an anxiolytic drug but it's also for people who are prone to alcoholism it's a good incentive reward Source Like Cocaine if you're going to you can't get rats addicted to cocaine if they live in a natural environment they have to be isolated in a cage before they'll bar press to their own death for cocaine so one of the things you want to do when you treat addiction is you want to substitute a new incentive structure right because the Part Of The Addictive process is you fall into a false incentive pattern right because cocaine makes you feel like you're doing something useful in respect to an important goal even though you're not it's it mimics that even if you know you're not even if you know it's I've never done cocaine I would be open about it if I had I I I think I like dopaminergic States enough that I've been um very scared of doing
对你朋友来说恐惧不管用。酒精是相当不错的抗焦虑药物,但它同时对那些有酗酒倾向的人来说,也是很好的激励奖赏来源,就像可卡因一样。如果你要——你没法让生活在自然环境里的老鼠对可卡因上瘾,必须先把它们隔离在笼子里,它们才会为了可卡因不停按压杠杆,直到把自己弄死。所以治疗成瘾时,你想做的事情之一,就是替换进一套新的激励结构,对吧。因为成瘾过程的一部分,就是你落入了一种虚假的激励模式。因为可卡因会让你觉得自己正在为某个重要目标做着有用的事,尽管你并没有。它模拟了那种感觉——哪怕你知道自己没有,哪怕你知道……我从来没碰过可卡因,如果碰过我会坦白说。我我我觉得我大概太喜欢多巴胺能的状态了,所以说实话我一直

it frankly also it wasn't around much just because of when I went to college it just wasn't a drug that was around much but it's a remarkable drug in the sense that people who take cocaine seem to be excited about everything they're in this High dopaminergic State and their brain becomes exceptionally good at finding cocaine even in the absence of resources which is pretty remarkable if you think about it you know I mean most people can't find the or get the thing they want in the absence of the resources to get it but people who take hard drugs that really Spike dopamine somehow manage yeah sure sometimes they Li and Ste extremely steal but they'll do other things too right they'll socialize with people that have it so they don't have to lie cheat and steal it's it's it's incredible to see that drug and things like methamphetamine take over people's minds and now I'm thinking the pathway appears when the aim is firmly in mind right see this is another this is another insistence that's derived from the
很怕去碰它。另外那时候它也不太常见,因为我上大学的那个年代,这种药物本来就不太流行。但它是一种很了不起的药,从这个意义上说:吸可卡因的人好像对什么事都兴致勃勃,他们处在一种高多巴胺状态里,而且他们的大脑变得极其擅长找到可卡因,哪怕在完全没有资源的情况下。你仔细想想,这其实相当不可思议。我的意思是,大多数人在没有资源的情况下,是没法找到或得到自己想要的东西的。但那些吸食会让多巴胺飙升的硬性毒品的人,却总能做到。是啊,当然,有时候他们会撒谎、偷东西,偷得很凶。但他们也会做别的事,对吧,他们会去结交手里有货的人,这样就不用撒谎、欺骗、偷窃了。看到那种药物,还有像甲基苯丙胺这类东西,怎么接管一个人的大脑,真的令人难以置信。我现在在想:当目标牢牢确立在心里时,道路就会显现出来,对吧。你看,这又是一个来自宗教文献的坚持。因为那里的观念是:如果你的目标是向上的,

通往它的道路就会自行显现。而这是真的——你刚才指出,在成瘾这件事上也同样成立,对吧,就是说一旦你进入那种被人格所占据的状态,前行的道路就会向你显现,甚至在受限的处境下,对吧,部分原因是你可以把我们的感知系统,还有我们的情绪系统——就这件事而言——看作导航工具,对吧。那么现在说成瘾,成瘾的大脑,他们看到的、他们的目标,是被成瘾物质所占据的,对吧。所以现在最高的神就是可卡因,比方说,于是世界上所有的道路都成了通往可卡因的路,世界上所有的东西都成了通往可卡因路上的路标,因为它彻底主导了一切。但它不只是一个冲动,它同样主导了感知的图景,还有情绪的图景,而且它还伴随着所有这些合理化的说辞,就是那一整套谎言,对吧,整个东西,那是一整个人格。是啊,残酷,太残酷了

已经不像是欲望了,他们多少就是处在一种呃,一种强迫状态里,那几乎是无意识的,但他们只是意识到这个事实……像是一种失调,他们正在做,他们知道自己不该做,却控制不住自己。我们可以从两个角度来对付这件事——如果一个人认为这是个真实的问题,而他们确实这么认为,我也这么认为。我不……我是持开放态度的,如果我有过或者现在有的话——色情内容一直不是我感兴趣的东西,我也不为此挣扎,但当我听到这些人讲的时候,非常清楚他们其实是在问:是外面色情内容太泛滥了,还是他们身上真有什么坏掉了他们是不是坏掉了。但基于我们到目前为止的这番讨论,我不觉得我会说他们坏掉了。在我看来,就像你说的,这是他们身上某一部分的显现,是他们内部的某一个人格对,而且它一直在被强迫性地奖励。你知道,当你看到自己正朝着一个渴望的目标

it's male sticklebacks will they're are very agressive towards other male sticklebacks and the reason they're aggressive is because the other male sticklebacks have a red dot on their bellies so they don't like red dotts at all and so you can really enrage a stickleback with a red dot and if you use a red dot that's a little bigger and a little brighter than the typical Red Dot you get a super stimulus it's virtually irresistible to the stickle back and it's weird because the maximal activation is produced by a stimulus that they wouldn't see in nature it slightly exceeds that's exactly what pornography does it's a super stimulus right and it's not surprising that young males in particular are acceptable to that because male sexuality in human beings is very visually oriented very and a lot of our brain is visual way more than virtually every other animal certainly every other primate and ver and every other mammal and so we have a situation where any 13-year-old boy can see more hyper attractive super stimulus
有攻击性地对待其他雄性棘鱼,而它们之所以有攻击性,是因为其他雄性棘鱼的腹部有一个红点。所以它们根本受不了红点,于是你可以用一个红点把一条棘鱼激怒得不行。而如果你用一个比典型红点稍微大一点、稍微更鲜艳一点的红点,你就得到了一个超常刺激,那对棘鱼来说几乎无法抗拒。而且很奇怪的是,最大程度的激活是由一个它们在自然界里根本看不到的刺激引发的,它略微超出了……这正是色情内容在做的事,它就是一种超常刺激对,而且尤其是年轻男性容易受它影响,这并不令人意外,因为人类的男性性欲非常依赖视觉,非常。而且我们大脑有很大一部分是视觉性的,远远超过几乎所有其他动物肯定超过所有其他灵长类,也超过所有其他哺乳动物。于是我们就有了这样一种局面:任何一个13岁的男孩,一天之内能看到的超高吸引力、超常刺激的女性,比100年前活着的最成功的男人一辈子见到的

follow is that you very soon learn the relationship between Taste of the food volume of the food macronutrient so protein fat or carbohydrate content micronutrients and satiation which is if you think about it it's sort of like a big plate of broccoli or a big steak or something the brain learns and the hypothalamus learns the association between the taste the caloric content what else is in there and satiation if you think about highly processed food or even combinations of multiple ingredients that's absolutely impossible to do the brain can't parse what are the various things in here and how do they relate to my feelings of satisfaction it's the difference between a super drug and what I believe are the the elements that were explain explain why you think that's that link learned link about satiation can't be learned in the case of these processed foods yeah because in the context of these processed foods they're activating multiple neuron systems in the hypothalamus and gut we know that the gut has neurons that can
食物的味道、食物的分量、宏量营养素(也就是蛋白质、脂肪或碳水化合物的含量)、微量营养素和饱足感之间的关系。如果你想一想,比如一大盘西兰花,或者一大块牛排之类的,大脑会学习,下丘脑会学习味道、热量含量、里面还有些什么成分,和饱足感之间的关联。但如果你想想高度加工的食品,或者哪怕只是多种配料的组合,那就完全不可能做到了。大脑没法解析这里面到底有哪些东西,以及它们和我的满足感是什么关系这就是超级药物和我认为的那些成分之间的区别……解释一下,解释一下你为什么认为在这些加工食品的情况下,那种关于饱足感的习得性关联学不成。对,因为在这些加工食品的情境下,它们同时激活了下丘脑和肠道里的多个神经元系统。我们知道肠道里有神经元能

respond to Sugar fatty acids and amino acid content and there's a you know this prominent theory that you know one of the main reasons we eat is to forage for amino amino acids that we'll eat until we get enough of the essential amino acids and and we correlate that with taste but that the gut has neurons we we know the gut has neurons that signal through the Vegas up through a little relay called the noo gangling if you want to look at it fun um fun name and then up to the dopaminergic centers of the brain which make us oh when we eat something that has a high uh essential amino acid content like a steak like a really tasty steak the neurons in the gut in a way that is independent of taste are signal in to the brain ah I'm getting essential amino acids you should eat more of this thing if those let's just say a small fraction of those amino acids that are present in a candy bar in a you know a package of of Skittles which I'm I'm guessing there's very few of them if any you're going to continue
对糖、脂肪酸和氨基酸含量做出反应。而且有个,你知道的,很有影响力的理论说,我们进食的主要原因之一是为了觅取氨基酸——我们会一直吃,直到获得足够的必需氨基酸,而我们把这个和味道关联起来。但肠道里有神经元,我们知道肠道里有神经元,它们的信号会通过迷走神经往上传,经过一个叫结状神经节的小中继站——你要是想查查的话,这名字呃挺有意思——然后再往上传到大脑的多巴胺能中枢,这让我们……哦,当我们吃到某种必需氨基酸含量很高的东西比如一块牛排,一块特别好吃的牛排,肠道里的神经元就会以一种独立于味觉的方式向大脑发信号:啊,我正在获得必需氨基酸,你应该多吃这个东西。如果那些……我们就说,一块糖果棒里、或者你知道的,一包彩虹糖里所含的那些氨基酸只有很小一部分我猜里面的氨基酸非常少,甚至一点都没有——那你就会继续去觅食,因为那些神经元

to forage for food because those neurons will also respond to Sugar basically it will keep you eating until you get enough of those amino acids in other words there are two parallel tracks one within our system Pathways to satiation that totally right multiple Pathways to satiation one depending on taste one dependent on actual nutrient content the mouth can only learn taste Association the mouth can't actually learn nutrient content the gut knows nutrient content the problem is you take a food that is low in a micronutrient or macronutrient or essential amino acids or essential fatty acids after all there are no essential carbohydrates there are only essential amino acids and essential fatty acids right right right and it will keep you eating and it will keep the appetite system revving until you get enough of those now here's the issue if you've ever done this that's empty calories empty calories but so so in some ways um you know this again is an analog to the whole discussion around pornography
也会对糖做出反应。基本上,它会让你一直吃,直到你摄入足够的那些氨基酸。换句话说,我们体内有两条并行的通路,通往饱足感的通路……完全正确,通往饱足感有多条通路一条取决于味道,一条取决于实际的营养成分。嘴巴只能学习味道的关联嘴巴没法真正知道营养成分,肠道才知道营养成分。问题在于,你吃的食物如果缺乏某种微量营养素或宏量营养素,或者必需氨基酸、必需脂肪酸——毕竟根本不存在必需碳水化合物,只有必需氨基酸和必需脂肪酸。对对对,那么它就会让你一直吃,让食欲系统一直高速运转,直到你摄入足够为止。现在问题来了如果你试过的话……那就是空热量。空热量。所以从某种意义上说,呃,你知道,这又是整个关于色情内容、自慰和繁殖的讨论的一个对应。对吧,我不是说繁殖是性活动的全部意义,但在

masturbation and and reproduction right I'm not saying that reproduction is the be all end all of sexual activity but in the evolutionary sense it absolutely is right there's no question about that there's no moral judgment there that's just the reality so the the the the situation with food is is the following if we are eating without any gut Level under understanding of what what's coming in we will keep eating if you let me give an example you probably haven't done this experiment in a while but if you've ever just had you know ribeye steak or two it's pretty satiating maybe you also have a salad if you're me or some broccoli or something like that if one takes then even after you've eaten all that one bite of pasta one bite of pasta the the next impulse is more yes right even though you already have enough essential amino acids from those steaks you're loosing you know uh threshold you've reached that Etc all the the good stuff why because blood glucose goes up and then you desire more
演化的意义上它绝对就是,对吧。这一点毫无疑问,这里没有道德评判,这就是现实。所以食物这边的情况是这样的:如果我们在进食时,肠道层面完全不了解进来的是什么,我们就会一直吃下去。让我举个例子,你可能已经有一阵子没做过这个实验了,但如果你吃过,你知道,一两块肋眼牛排,那是相当有饱足感的,也许你还配了份沙拉——如果是我的话——或者一些西兰花之类的。那么即使你已经吃完了这一切,只要再吃一口意面,就一口意面,接下来的冲动就是:还要更多。对吧,即使你已经从那些牛排里获得了足够的必需氨基酸,你已经,你知道,呃达到那个阈值了,等等,所有该有的都有了。为什么?因为血糖上去了,然后你就想要更多,因为血糖升高

because blood glucose elevations are linked directly to the dopaminergic system so what I'm basically trying to say here is that I do think that there are elements to our food modern food if you will it seems like it's you know anything but modern in the sense that it's worse for us than the more primitive foods but highly processed foods pornography any drug that spikes dopamine dramatically like methamphetamine for instance any behavior that spikes dopamine dramatically that very quickly hijacks these circuits and to me the way to to teach those circuits a a calmer more um prudent version of themselves right to enter a different hypothalamic uh activation pattern is to start breaking the things down into their Essential Elements right about the motivation the pleasure Etc to Tamp all that down I mean we know that for pornography if the pornography is very extreme then less extreme pornography doesn't seem to work well that's because there's also a novelty kick in dopaminergic striving right I mean so
是和多巴胺能系统直接挂钩的。所以我基本上想说的是,我确实认为我们的食物——现代食物,如果你愿意这么叫的话——里面有些成分……不过它看起来一点也不像现代的好东西,因为它对我们比那些更原始的食物更糟。但高度加工的食品、色情内容、任何让多巴胺剧烈飙升的药物,比如甲基苯丙胺,还有任何让多巴胺剧烈飙升的行为,都会很快劫持这些神经回路。而在我看来,要教会这些回路一个更平静、更呃更审慎的版本,对吧,要让它进入一种不同的下丘脑激活模式,方法就是开始把这些东西拆解成它们的基本元素,对吧,关于动机、快感等等,把那些都压下去。我是说,我们知道,对色情内容来说,如果看的内容非常极端,那么不那么极端的内容似乎就不起作用了。对,那是因为多巴胺能的追求里还有一份新奇感带来的刺激,对吧。我是说

1:01:30
with any basic repetitive pleasure there's a dopaminergic kick but with any novelty there's also a dopaminergic kick so there's an optimized threshold for novelty and repetitive striving that plays out in pornography so um there's the direct effect of the stimulus as such but the there's variation in the stimulus that's also novel and so you it's a common pattern for pornographic usage to become more what would you say fetishistic that's one way of thinking about it as it progresses because that that keeps the novelty alive that's very dangerous that's a very dangerous development right and I would venture in a very different domain that if you were to eat your steaks slathered in barbecue sauce for a couple of weeks going back to the way that you eat them now which by the way this is a great opportunity to educate people about something that you taught me when we had dinner last which is that if you're going to order a steak order a Pittsburgh Char the Char on the outside is incredibly tasty they're we
任何基本的重复性快感都会带来多巴胺的刺激,但任何新奇的东西同样会带来多巴胺的刺激,所以在新奇和重复追求之间存在一个最优阈值,这在色情内容的使用上体现得很明显。所以呃,一方面有刺激本身的直接效应,另一方面刺激的变化本身也是新奇的。所以有一个很常见的模式:色情内容的使用会变得越来越……怎么说呢,恋物化。可以这么理解,随着时间推进会这样,因为那样才能维持新奇感。那非常危险,那是一个非常危险的发展方向,对吧。而且我敢说,在一个完全不同的领域里,如果你连着几个星期吃裹满烧烤酱的牛排,再回到你现在吃牛排的方式——顺便说一句,这正好是个好机会,让我跟大家讲讲你上次我们一起吃饭时教我的一件事:如果你要点牛排,就点匹兹堡式焦烤(Pittsburgh Char),外面那层焦壳特别香。我们太爱那个了。那是鲜味(Umami),是我们……你有专门的味觉受体,它很

love that the Umami taste is that we you have a devoted taste receptor that it's complex yeah so and if they don't know what a Pittsburgh Char is then maybe you're in the wrong restaurant or you need to educate them but incredibly satiating delicious right but if you were to slather those steaks in in a bunch of things I would suspect that after a while your plain steaks wouldn't taste as good but certain but the way to make them taste good again would be to eat them plain for a period of time in which the stuff the all the condiments Etc would start to become aversive I do believe that when we return to the the sort of most um naturally satisfying mode of engaging with these uh with these circuits here we're talking about food and sex in parallel that they become especially satiating and I think that you know in hearing from all these people that are addicted to pornography and they're not addicted like they telling me they love it and they can't stop they're telling me it's no longer working for them that the that there's
复杂。对。而且如果他们不知道什么是 Pittsburgh Char,那可能你走错餐厅了,或者你得教教他们。但那非常有饱足感,太好吃了,对吧。可是如果你在那些牛排上抹满一堆东西,我猜过一阵子,你那些原味牛排就不会那么好吃了。但是……但让它们重新变好吃的办法就是有一段时间只吃原味的,在这期间那些东西、所有那些调味料等等,会开始变得让人反感。我确实相信,当我们回到那种呃最自然、最令人满足的方式去参与这些呃这些回路时——这里我们是把食物和性放在一起讲——它们会变得格外令人满足。而且我觉得你知道,从所有这些对色情内容成瘾的人那里听来的,他们并不是那种跟我说他们很享受、只是停不下来的成瘾;他们告诉我的是,这对他们已经不起作用了,就是说

随着时间推移,他们获得的多巴胺越来越少,他们感到被困在里面,而且他们完全不知道该怎么办,因为他们没有被社会化地引导去外面建立一段真实的关系,一段真实的性关系,或者任何一种关系。嗯,而且还有一些证据表明,如果你是在色情化的性里被社会化的,那么要和一个真实的伴侣建立性关系其实相当困难当然我得说,这在某种程度上一直都不容易,因为这是一种复杂的行为形式但色情内容的引入,嗯,它会树立起一整套期待的图景,比如说,而那些期待未必能实现在现实世界里做得好,比方说;而且大脑中那些生物系统也存在一种学习,就是通过观看性行为而不是参与其中来唤起性兴奋,这完全是两码事,所以其中有些——对,那就是窥淫,对吧,你基本上是在学着成为一个窥淫者,对,没错。那你想想那些高度可塑的年轻大脑,是啊,在学习这个,

抱负,可一旦这个抱负实现了,一个新的抱负就会显现出来,它可能是更大的抱负,比方说,如果你的人格是扩张型的;而如果你又实现了那个,同样的事情还会发生。那么你就可以设想,在所有近端的抱负背后,存在一个元抱负。好,对神性的刻画,就是对那个元抱负的刻画,这是个很好的思考方式。所以它是那种你越接近就越后退的东西,但它同时也是所有抱负的共同之处,而我们知道确实存在这样的东西,否则我们就不会有“抱负”这个概念,对吧,这个概念本身就说明了各种抱负之间存在共性。好,在亚伯拉罕的故事里,神性是在与抱负的关系中被刻画的。亚伯拉罕的处境,在某种程度上类似于现代世界里一个富裕之人身处丰裕之中的情形,亚伯拉罕的父母很

富有,他们供养着他,他什么都不需要做,结果他就达到了社会主义的乌托邦,或者说消费主义的乌托邦,你怎么看都行,而他没有理由往前走,所以他就不动,他什么也不做,直到 75 岁,然后那个声音临到他,那是冒险的声音,在这个故事里它就是神,神就是这样被定义的,对吧。神对亚伯拉罕说,你必须离开这一切舒适,这一开始就是个非常有意思的命题,就像,你到底为什么要离开那种什么都不缺的状态呢?嗯,这里面的含义是,当一切所需都被送到你面前时,你其实并没有拥有你所需的一切,生活不是那样运作的。好,所以神说你必须离开你父亲的帐篷,你必须离开你的部族,你必须离开那些和你说同一种语言的人,你必须出去闯荡这个世界。所以在这个故事里,神被概念化为那种冲动,那个把你

推向世界、并鼓励你这么做的声音。这就是关于“终极的上”是什么的一个假说。好,亚伯拉罕同意了,而且他以两种方式去做:他筑了一座祭坛,标志着他的目标,表明他将遵从这个声音的命令,或者说这个声音的邀请,并且他会在那里做出相应的献祭。这是一个关键的——这是一个至关重要的要点,必须理解,因为转变的过程需要献祭。要超越现在的自己,就意味着你必须放下过去的自己,你必须做出牺牲。而亚伯拉罕的一生,是由一连串对他向上目标的再次确认,以及对他愿意献祭的宣告所标点的,每次他完成一场冒险,他就重新立定那个约,对吧,这就是遵从冒险之声的协议。好,神和他立了个约,那就是圣约,这是个很有意思的交易,所以现在从生物学角度想象一下,我们体内运作着一种整合的本能。好,那么它

for Peterson Academy on The Sermon on the Mount And The Sermon on the Mount is a it's a Str it's a metag goal strategy it's very practical it's very very practical and it emerges out of the biblical tradition in a very grounded manner it's a logical extension of the biblical ethical precursors so what Christ says to his followers in the course of The Sermon on the Mount is first Orient your eyes upward okay so that's in alignment with the notion that the first born is to be consecrated to God there's a meaning to that and and the meaning is something like this imagine that your life consists of a sequence of episodes okay an episode has a beginning and a middle and an end the beginning sets the frame for the episode so at the beginning of an Enterprise you want to you want to lift your eyes heavenward so you establish the highest possible goal so that that constitutes the frame of perception for that episode that's the idea that's why the firstborn should be consecrated to God so for example in to think about it prosaically
是给彼得森学院(Peterson Academy)讲的《登山宝训》。《登山宝训》其实是一套……是一种元目标(metagoal)策略,它非常实用,非常非常实用,而且它是以一种非常扎实的方式从圣经传统中生长出来的,是圣经伦理前身的一个合乎逻辑的延伸。所以基督在《登山宝训》中对他的追随者说的第一件事是:先把你的眼睛朝上看。这正好和「头生的要归给神」这个观念是一致的。这里面是有含义的,那个含义大概是这样的:想象你的人生由一连串的情节(episode)构成。一个情节有开头、中间和结尾。开头为整个情节设定了框架。所以在一项事业的开端,你要把眼睛抬向天上,也就是确立一个尽可能最高的目标,让它构成那个情节的知觉框架。这就是那个意思,这也是为什么头生的要归给神。举个例子,说得直白一点:在我们坐下来录这期播客之前——因为我们录过很多期了——我们努力让自己进入

那个能让这期播客获得最彻底成功的框架。你可以想象,这件事本来可能被降格,去服务于我们各自想要短期个人名气的近端欲望,对吧;或者我们可以试图在对话里压倒对方;又或者我们可以把自己摆正,尽我们所能去追求那条通向启示的路径,我们可以用那种方式提升我们的对话。好,那就会为这场对话设定框架。好的播客主持人总是这么做的,对吧。他们不是在玩游戏;或者说,如果他们在玩游戏,那也是最高层级的游戏。那是一场探求(quest)。对,好,探求什么?开悟,追求真理,对吧,追求彼此的理解,然后也许是为了教育那些参与其中的人。好,所以基督说,首先把你的眼睛朝上看,对吧,那就是爱神胜过一切。所以无论那个向上的神性是什么,你都与

它建立某种忠诚关系,并且让它来决定你的知觉和你的动机。接下来,在这样的假设下行事:别人和你一样,也分有那个至高目标的本性,并且照这样去对待他们。再接下来,专注于当下。对对,这完全正确。之所以完全正确,是因为当你明确了自己的目标,道路就会自行显现出来;否则你根本没法用你的感官来定向,你哪儿也去不了,对吧。所以如果你尽你所能把目标朝上定,那么向上的道路就会在你面前自行显现,然后你就必须去留意它。于是你就得到了一种奇怪的、看似悖论的最优性:你关注的是最长的时间尺度和尽可能高的高度,同时你又能最大限度地利用眼前的东西。而《登山宝训》里的含义是,这和在当下展开的永生中有份,两者之间没有区别。我觉得这……在我看来这完全说得通。

it's exactly right and so you know I I was I was thinking of that because you said your friends all of your friends Endeavors had become elevated so imagine that one problem you might want to solve is what your goals should be but a much deeper problem would be how do you conceptualize your goals in relationship to one another across the broadest span of time and person so that every goal has the highest probability of succeeding that would be like the pursuit of a metagal I would say that's what defines the religious Enterprise there's another variant of that for example so a variant of that would be not how do you solve the problem of Any Given thing that terrifies you but how do you solve the problem of the class of things that terrify you and the dragon fight mythology is the solution to that problem so the attitude there is you adopt The Stance of voluntary what a voluntary approach in the face of Terror because that's the best meta strategy right and that's the strategy that works to protect you across the
完全正确。所以,你知道,我之所以想到这个,是因为你说你的朋友们,你所有朋友的事业都被提升了。所以想象一下:你可能想解决的一个问题是「我的目标该是什么」,但一个更深的问题是:你如何把你的各个目标彼此之间的关系,放在最广阔的时间跨度和人群范围里去构想,使得每一个目标都有最高的成功概率。那就像是在追求一个元目标。我会说,那正是宗教事业的定义。还有另一种变体,比如说,一个变体是:不是「你如何解决某一件让你恐惧的具体事情」,而是「你如何解决让你恐惧的那一整类事情」。而屠龙神话就是这个问题的解法。所以那里的态度是,你采取一种主动自愿的姿态——在恐惧面前主动迎上去,因为那是最好的元策略,对吧。而那正是能在尽可能大范围的危险情境中保护你的策略。这就是我们作为

对,就是某种形式的牺牲。还有另一个问题,今天反复出现,我很喜欢它反复出现——就是奖赏的时间维度这个概念,奖赏可以存在于多个时间尺度上,或者说更宽广的时间尺度上。有一件事我觉得自己真的很幸运,就是我走了科研这条路。我们之前还在笑这件事:你知道,一个项目可能要做一年,然后你得推倒重来,因为那个项目毫无进展;然后你做完项目,投出一篇论文,评审……我是说,科学里的奖赏周期可能长达四年。这不只是拿个学位的事,发表论文有时要一年,有时要两年,你知道的,有时候事情进展不顺,你不得不发在一个你本来不愿意发的期刊上;有时候你干脆得放弃整个项目。所以我的奖赏系统是在很多种时间尺度上被训练出来的:短期、中期、长期。

那会是最值得建立的东西。你作为一个好父亲,做的差不多就是这件事,但你是以一种能让你同时从当下每一步中获得最大影响力的方式在做。所以卡尔·弗里斯顿(Carl Friston)跟我说过——当时我们在聊熵和情绪。几年前我和几个学生搞明白了一件事:焦虑标志着熵的出现,是技术意义上的。这让我特别兴奋,因为它给了情绪一个物理基础,一个真正的物理基础。而弗里斯顿让我很意外,因为他说他有一个类似的关于正面情绪的理论,他也知道负面情绪那一块,他也一直在那个领域做研究。他说,当你相对于一个目标减少了熵的时候,你会得到一次多巴胺的冲击。我当时想,天哪,这太酷了,因为这意味着:不确定性就是熵,当它出现时,你会焦虑;但当你看到自己正朝着一个目标迈进时,你会得到一次多巴胺冲击。而这之所以和熵有关,是

entropy related to entropy is because with each step successful step you take towards a goal you reduce the uncertainty of the pursuit which is manifested in that phenomena you described which is when you see the Finish Line you start running faster right so they're both related to entropy well to have goals at multiple time scales you need to be able to re in I I love this entropy argument it makes total sense that you want to be able to uh withstand the the the the periods of time when you don't know whether or not things are becoming more or less uncertain this is part of becoming um an adult if you will okay okay so yeah that was exactly the thread so there's there's two cories of that one is that the more valuable the goal towards which you're progressing the higher the dopamine kick per unit of advancement so what that means is you want an ultimate goal operating in the domain of each proximal subg goal and that's what happens with this upward orientation it's like what you're trying
因为你朝目标每成功迈出一步,就减少了这场追求中的不确定性,这体现在你描述的那个现象里——当你看到终点线时,你会开始跑得更快,对吧。所以两者都和熵有关。嗯,要在多个时间尺度上拥有目标,你必须能够……我非常喜欢这个熵的论证,它完全说得通:你必须能够扛住那些你并不知道事情正在变得更确定还是更不确定的时期。这也是长大成人的一部分,如果可以这么说的话。好,好,对,这正是那条线索。关于这一点有两个推论。第一个是:你正在朝之推进的目标越有价值,每前进一个单位所获得的多巴胺冲击就越强。这意味着,你希望有一个终极目标在每一个近端子目标的领域里发挥作用,而这正是这种「向上定向」所带来的效果。也就是说,你想做的事情是:让事情尽可能地

变好——无论那具体意味着什么——在尽可能长的时间跨度上,为尽可能多的人,也包括你自己。当然你不会确切知道该怎么做到,但那可以成为你的目标。好,那么这会塑造你的知觉,塑造你对道路的知觉;而且它还会改变你的奖赏系统,因为现在每向前迈出一个近端的步伐,都是相对于那个元目标的熵减指标。而根据定义,没有任何事情能比这更令人兴奋了,明白吗。这多少解释了为什么你朋友能跳出他那种成瘾的框架,因为他现在在做一件极其值得去做的事,相比之下,比方说酒精的诱惑就显得微不足道了 对 对 对 而且这是一种对奖赏机制的重写 是啊 是啊 没错 正是如此 而现在你可以想象,你可以想象这样一种情形:一种文化在漫长的时间里不断探索,去弄清楚该如何描述那个目标,使得人们一旦追求这个目标,就会在

if that goal is pursued people integrate psychologically in a manner that integrates them socially across large spans of time I think that's what happens when the monotheistic Revelation emerges that's ex that's what's happening from a from a biological perspective is that we're starting to characterize the longest term goal yeah something like that this is why I believe that pornography is potentially so poisonous because the level of uncertainty is basically zero yeah people can access what they want to see they can keep foraging until they find it yeah and that's not the way that relationships work the way relationships work is I ask somebody out they might say yes they might say no you got on a date they might not want a second date well things could progress you might think that you're on the path to one thing it turns out it doesn't work or it's it's you're not compatible you know I me that's also extremely salutary because if you're being rejected like say you're a foraging male and you're
心理上整合起来,而且这种整合方式能让他们在很长的时间跨度上实现社会性的整合 我认为这就是一神教的启示出现时所发生的事 从生物学的角度看,那时候正在发生的,就是我们开始去刻画那个最长远的目标 是啊 差不多是这样 这就是为什么我认为色情内容可能有剧毒,因为其中不确定性的水平基本上等于零 是啊 人们随时可以拿到自己想看的东西 他们可以一直搜寻下去,直到找到为止 是啊 而人际关系不是这样运作的 关系的运作方式是:我约某人出去,对方可能答应,也可能拒绝 你约到了第一次,对方可能不想有第二次或者事情可能会继续推进 你以为自己走在通往某个结果的路上,结果发现行不通,或者发现你们其实不合适 你知道 我是说 这其实也极其有益,因为如果你被拒绝——比如比方说你是个在寻觅伴侣的男性,一直不停被拒绝,然后你放弃这一切转向色情内容,那你放弃掉的

being rejected all the time and you forgo that for pornography what you're foregoing is the corrective that all those women are offering you like they're rejecting you because there is something wrong like seriously there's something wrong and now you escape from that you think well that's a relief because no more rejection it's like yeah no more rejection no more learning no more Improvement and no possibility of of an actual life right no action at a distance yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah no distal no distal accomplishment right yeah the only implication of the pornography masturbation scenario is that is more pornography masturbation that's the only implication of it that's that's all that possibly could AR worse than that because it's more pornography in a degenerating game because as you said you have to chase that novelty Edge otherwise dopamine is driven down further well and that means what it's going to get more and more extreme well that that's not a good scenario that's not a good like what do
是所有那些女性正在给你的纠正反馈 她们拒绝你,是因为你身上确实有问题 说真的,确实有问题 而现在你逃离了这一切,你觉得这真是种解脱,因为再也不会被拒绝了 是啊,就是再也不会被拒绝,也再也不会学习,再也不会进步,再也不可能拥有真实的人生 对,没有远距离的作用 对 对 对 对 是啊 没有远端的成就 对 是啊 色情加自慰这套模式唯一的结果就是更多的色情加自慰 这就是它唯一的结果 差不多就是这样 甚至可能比这更糟因为那是在一个不断退化的游戏里投入更多色情 因为就像你说的,你得去追逐那种新奇感的边缘否则多巴胺会被进一步压低 而这意味着什么?意味着它会变得越来越极端 这可不是个好局面 这一点都不好 你说越来越极端是什么意思?没错 这最后会走到哪儿?你知道

you mean more and more extreme exactly like where does that end well you know a casual glance at online pornography can give you some real insight into where that ends like there's that's a bottomless pit and and in the most pernicious possible manner because sexual it can definitely twist itself into pathological forms that undermine psychological integrity and demolish Society no we see this with people who are highly successful who seem to have lots of areas of their life regulated and then you know they collapse their lives I we sometimes see it with with drugs of abuse as well although unless those drugs of abuse are dopaminergic and people have them in a in check so to speak which is exceedingly rare yes it's usually just a matter of time and they they don't reach the mountain top yes while time is the problem as we've been pointing out let me tell you another story this is from Revelation so Revelation is a vision of the end of time okay now time ends all the time like our adventures end our lives end
只要随便看一眼网上的色情内容,你就能真切地看清这最后会走到哪儿 那是个无底洞 而且是以最恶毒的方式 因为性确实可能扭曲成病态的形式,瓦解心理的完整性、摧毁社会 是啊 我们在那些非常成功的人身上看到过这一点,他们生活的很多方面看起来都很有条理,然后 你知道 他们把自己的人生给毁了 我们有时在滥用药物的人身上也能看到同样的情况 不过除非那些药物是多巴胺能的,而且人们能把它们控制住,可以这么说而这极其罕见 是的 通常只是时间问题,他们登不上山顶 是的而时间正是问题所在,就像我们一直在指出的那样 我再给你讲一个故事,来自《启示录》 《启示录》是关于时间终结的异象 好 而时间其实一直在终结:我们的冒险会结束,我们的生命会结束,我们的关系会结束 所以“终结”是有

our relationships end so the end has a pattern okay Revelation is a vision of the Eternal pattern of the end so here's an element of the Vision it's so remarkable I figured this out with my friend Jonathan pasio so there's a vision in a subvision in in the sequential dream of revelation of the Scarlet Beast and the of Babylon and it's very relevant to our discussion on pornography you'll understand it right away so it's a vision of how Society disintegrates okay now imagine when Society disintegrates men disintegrate according to their pattern and women disintegrate according to their pattern that makes perfect sense right because if Society disintegrates it's going to be men and women who disintegrate there's no reason to assume that their pattern of disintegration would be identical okay Scarlet Beast is is that's the Scarlet beast of the state that's Babylon let's say that's the degenerate tyrannical state has multiple heads why because whatever United it has vanished that's like the death of God
模式的 好 《启示录》就是关于这种永恒的终结模式的异象 这里说说异象中的一个元素,它太了不起了 这是我和我朋友乔纳森·帕乔(Jonathan Pageau)一起弄明白的 在《启示录》那连续的梦境异象里,有一个子异象讲的是朱红色的兽和巴比伦大淫妇,这跟我们关于色情的讨论极其相关,你马上就会明白 这是一个关于社会如何瓦解的异象 好 现在想象一下,当社会瓦解时,男人按照男人的模式瓦解,女人按照女人的模式瓦解 这完全说得通,对吧 因为如果社会瓦解,那瓦解的就是男人和女人没有理由假定他们瓦解的模式会一模一样 好 朱红色的兽那是代表国家的朱红色的兽,那就是巴比伦,可以说,那是堕落的暴政国家 它有很多个头 为什么?因为曾经把它统一起来的那个东西消失了 那就像是上帝之死,它消失了 于是现在它的头

it's vanished and so now it's got heads in every direction so it's confused and it's red scared because that's that confusion that disintegration is the precursor to the river of blood right the Red Sea this the swamp of chaos so when the patriarchal state disintegrates it loses its unity and then it's multiple heads right and that's that's an that's the emblem of descent into diverse chaos and gazes everywhere with these multiple heads precisely precisely it's not integrated okay now that's the disintegration of the patriarchy you might say a top that is the of Babylon that's a beautiful woman who's subordinated her psyche to the demands of sexuality she's the mother of all prostitutes right so she's extremely attractive and she's clad in gold and she holds a cup it's very graphic imagery that has nothing but the consequences of her fornication in it is this I mean I guess I will just say it recently there's been a number of posts on EX of this woman who had sex with 100 men in a day um and now and now she's
朝向四面八方 所以它是混乱的 而它是红色的、令人惊惧的,因为那种混乱、那种瓦解正是血河的前兆 对吧 红海 那混沌的沼泽 所以当父权制国家瓦解时,它失去了统一性,然后就变成了多个头 对 而那正是堕入多头混沌的标志用这许多个头朝各个方向张望 正是如此 正是如此 它不再是整合的 好 那是父权制的瓦解,可以这么说而骑在它上面的是巴比伦大淫妇 那是一个美丽的女人,她把自己的心灵屈从于性的要求 她是一切娼妓之母 对 所以她极具吸引力,身披黄金,手里端着一只杯 那意象非常露骨杯里装的全是她淫乱行为的后果 是这样吧?我是说 我想我就直说了最近 X 上有不少帖子,讲一个女人一天内和 100 个男人发生性关系 嗯 而现在 现在她

说她要一天和一千个男人发生性关系 是啊 不过考虑到上一次“成功”给她带来的情绪后果,她好像正在重新考虑这个计划 是啊 我得说 她母亲是她的财务主管 无语 嗯 这是肯定的我也无语 我对她那个“和 100 个男人”的事情的反应是 我很难判断那在多大程度上是一种表演,或者别的什么 你知道 所以 我很难分辨那里到底在发生什么 我不是心理学家 但任何看到那件事的人都会说 这是相当黑暗的局面 它比任何想保住自己理智的人所能想象的都要黑暗得多 还有一点也很黑暗而且我说这话不是出于道德评判,我只是出于那种“哇”的感觉这个女人显然是在用这种方式过她的人生 显然这是她自己的选择 但是有这么多人知道这件事这一事实——有这么多人,而且我们现在也在谈论它——不过我想我们是为了某种更大的善 我确实

service to a greater good I certainly believe like like that this is now out out there right it's out there um just like seeing somebody just like seeing somebody murder somebody in Cold Blood we we talk about that recently a video of of an assassination that and those had been available before but um those two things kind of leveled up or leveled down you know um one's idea of of what humans are capable of by allowing so many acceptable what's acceptable or desirable that's right the threshold shifted that's for sure maybe that's the what I'm looking for the threshold shifted yeah okay so that's a great example that that that young woman who's betrayed herself in the deepest possible Manner and all of the people that are following her and all the young women who are influenced by her so you have this figure on the back of the degenerate State that's the degenerate feminine female sexuality commoditize commoditized when the masculine State degenerates that's a sign of the end of things and that makes perfect sense
相信 这件事现在已经公开了 对吧 它就摆在那儿了 就像看到有人冷血地杀害另一个人 我们最近谈到过一段暗杀的视频 而那类东西以前也能看到 但那两件事多少把人对于人类能做出什么事的认知抬高了、或者说拉低了 也把什么是可接受的、什么是可欲的门槛给放宽了 没错 阈值移动了 这是肯定的 也许那就是我想说的词:阈值移动了 是啊 好 那是个很好的例子 那个年轻女人以最深的方式背叛了她自己 还有所有追随她的人,还有所有受她影响的年轻女性 所以你就有了这个骑在堕落国家背上的形象 那就是堕落的女性面,女性性欲被商品化被商品化 当阳刚的国家堕落时 那是万物终结的征兆 而这完全说得通

because well why wouldn't female sexuality commoditize when the masculine is no longer reliable it's exactly what you'd expect you know how the story ends there's another element to it the degenerate state offers the of Babylon as enticement for its degeneration you can have everything you want on the sexual side at the end of that substory the state the Beast kills the prostitute and so what that means is that the long-term consequences of sacrific less sexual satiety is that sexuality itself is destroyed and I think we're seeing that in our society now 30% of Japanese under the age of 30 are virgins right about about the same in South Korea right the birth rates in those countries have plummeted like they're way way below replacement and and increasingly 50% of women in in the west are childless at 30 birth rates are way way down and and going down as well 50% are childless half of them will never have a child because 30 is already pushing it and 95% of them will regret it we're already in a situation in the west where
因为 当阳刚不再可靠时,女性性欲怎么可能不被商品化呢?这正是你会预料到的结果 你知道这故事是怎么结束的 它还有另一个元素:堕落的国家把巴比伦大淫妇当作诱饵,来换取人们接受它的堕落 在性这一边你想要什么都能得到 而在那个子故事的结尾,国家、那头兽杀死了那个妓女 这意味着,无需牺牲就能获得性满足的长期后果是性本身被摧毁 而我认为我们在当今社会正看到这一点 30 岁以下的日本人中有 30%是处子 对吧 韩国的比例也差不多 对 这些国家的出生率已经暴跌远远低于世代更替水平 而且在西方,越来越多——50% 的女性到 30 岁还没有孩子 出生率非常非常低,而且还在继续下降 50% 没有孩子,其中一半将永远不会有孩子,因为 30 岁已经是在勉强了而她们中 95% 会为此后悔 在西方我们已经处在这样一种状况:四分之一的女性将会非自愿地

one in Four Women will be involuntarily childless right and so it's so well that's a good example as I said earlier of how these things are characterized in this symbolic language that outlines the starkest you might say the starkest of biological realities you said that there was a problem you know your sense was that there was a problem with effortless gratification it's like well the problem part of the problem with effortless gratification is it destroys itself and it's so interesting because the promise of the sexual Revolution and the pill was an unlimited Horizon of sexual opportunity okay we know but the actual consequence of that was appears to be that that that's that's the pathway to the demise of sexuality itself this was if you can't be with the one you love Love the One You're With the uh someone I know who was a uh in their 20s in the 1970s explained to me I always thought that song was about you know if you can't be with the the person that you you love you know you find someone else you can

那个意思 那讲的是 70 年代的那种狂野 对 那种许诺 是啊 那讲的是那种滥交——滥交在 1970 年代成了一个时代主题 是啊 我是说,在避孕药出现之后人们会觉得那也许是可能的,这并不奇怪 但那是错的 是严重的错误 而我们将要在很长一段时间里承受它的后果 你刚才说父权制、阳刚的一面会先崩溃然后才——不 不是这样 我没这么说 所以这不是因果关系 不不 不能这么说 男人和女人是以同样的速度堕落的 对吧 我是说,我们处在极其紧密的反馈过程里,不可能在不压迫男人的情况下压迫女人也不可能在不压迫女人的情况下压迫男人 可以说我们是绑在一起的 所以你知道 那些把女性遮蔽起来、让她们噤声的文化 你可能会以为那会导致

为什么?因为赌注很高。赌注高意味着什么?意味着结局很重要。这又意味着什么?意味着这是生死攸关的处境。而这一切,只有在一个人扛起重担时才会显现出来。还有另一件事,我琢磨明白了,特别了不起。我去过耶路撒冷的圣墓教堂,那是第一座教堂,是最早建立的基督教教堂,假设它就建在受难处的位置上,对吧。所以教堂的中心是一个祭坛,而祭坛的中心是这幅受难像,对吧,那是一个献祭的意象。好,受难、献祭意象、祭坛、教堂,然后教堂周围是社区。接着这就成了欧洲城镇的模式,对吧,所有那些人人都想去欧洲参观的城镇都是这个模式。好,那为什么呢?因为负责任的牺牲是社区的核心。这就是

at the core of the community that's what's dramatized in all that in that architecture in that in that sacred architecture in the actual in in the in the structure of the community with its Center well of course sacrifice is the center of the community obviously because Community is a sacrificial gesture like in so far as you're not all about what you want right now you're offering up a sacrifice of what it is that you want right now to the Future and the community clearly and now that's going to integrate you psychologically it's going to integrate the society and make it productive and it's so interesting that we acted that out for that proposition out for well the whole at least in so far as you're talking about Christian oriented civilization for the last 2,000 years without ever really noticing that we were dramatizing the proposition that sacrifices at the center of the community it's like obviously well what are we to make of you know cities like San Francisco which I grew up just south
那一切所戏剧化呈现的东西——在那种建筑里,在那种神圣建筑里,在社区的实际结构里,在它的中心位置。当然了,牺牲就是社区的中心,这很明显,因为社区本身就是一种献祭的姿态。就是说,只要你不是一心只顾此刻自己想要什么,你就是在把此刻想要的东西献祭出去,献给未来,也明确地献给社区。而这会在心理上整合你,会整合整个社会并使之富有生产力。特别有意思的是,我们把这个命题演绎出来了,至少就以基督教为取向的文明而言,演绎了整整两千年,却从来没有真正注意到,我们是在把「牺牲处于社区的中心」这个命题戏剧化地呈现出来。这不是明摆着的嘛。那我们该怎么看待旧金山这样的城市呢?我就在它南边长大,你知道,按任何标准来说它都是

一座美丽的城市。我知道有些人会翻白眼,我是说,一边是海湾,另一边是大洋,还有壮观的桥梁。我是说,它是一座城市在地貌多样性等方面所能达到的高度的明证。但市中心,这座城市的中心,已经烂到任何人都无法接受的地步,白天都不敢走过去,更别说晚上了。所以到了这个地步,你就会想,这个中心还算是中心吗?我是说,你简直得绕开这座城市的中心才能躲开从这些里面……对,这个问题其实很有意思,你问的在某种意义上是个象征层面的问题,就像是你在问,社会整体的状态和城市中心区衰败这件事之间,到底是什么样的关系城市中心衰败了——这两件事绝不是不相关的,一点都不,它们联系得非常紧密,因为中心守不住了,对吧,那首

10科学为什么离不开一个故事

famous poem from the 1920s the center is loosened right and mere chaos is around mere chaos is set upon the world I haven't got the quote precisely right that was TS Elliott he knew that when when the center pillar disintegrates then everything falls into chaos that's one of the oldest realizations of of humankind the question might be what has caused the degeneration of this of the center well man you could think about that the whole culture war is meditation on exactly that question you know there's an insistence on the postmodern side so the postmodernists they figured out that we see the world through a story they were right and and that's a devastating blow to the empiricists and the rationalists because they were wrong we do not build our knowledge in consequence of an aggregation of facts that's not how it works and a story is something like the prioritization of the world of facts I heard recently that that religion teaches through story philosophy teaches through um language that is divorced of story and that
1920年代的名诗是怎么说的来着,中心松动了,对吧,纯粹的混乱四处蔓延,混乱被释放到这个世界上,我引得不太准确,那是T.S.艾略特,他明白,当中心的支柱崩解时,一切就会陷入混乱,这是人类最古老的领悟之一。问题也许是,是什么导致了这个中心的退化,嗯天哪,你可以好好想想这个,整场文化战争其实就是对这个问题的冥思,你知道,后现代那一派有一种坚持那一边——后现代主义者他们发现,我们是通过故事来看世界的,他们说对了,而这对经验主义者和理性主义者是毁灭性的打击,因为他们错了,我们的知识并不是靠事实的堆积建立起来的,事情不是那样运作的,而故事就有点像是对事实世界的排序。我最近听到一种说法:宗教通过故事来教,哲学通过语言来教一种剥离了故事的语言,而科学则被设计成几乎要完全脱离语言,我

science is designed to try and remove itself from language almost entirely I mean you'd love to just present graphs and figures but you have to explain what's in those right there's a discussion there's some conclusions but the idea is that as scientists we're supposed to be objective and just interpret the data as they stand to not and to not only be informed by the fact to not INF a story but but story is the the the way that the brain works right I mean beginning middle end um it's also the thing is the story creeps into science in in what would you say unavoidably so here let me give you an example so I read a book once that was written by an X KGB agent who talked about a lab in the in the Soviet Union where there had was a dreadful accident at one point that resulted in the death of about 500 people they were trying to produce an amalgam of um Ebola and small pox yikes and then to aerosolize it oh goodness okay now look from a strictly scientific perspective value free there's no difference between pursuing that branch
是说,你恨不得只呈现图表和数据,但你得解释那里面是什么,对吧,得有讨论,得有结论,但核心的想法是,作为科学家我们应该客观,只按数据本身来解读,不要……只让事实来引导不要加入故事。可是故事就是大脑运作的方式啊,对吧,我是说有开头、中间、结尾,而且问题是,故事会悄悄渗进科学里,怎么说呢,是不可避免地渗进去。我给你举个例子,我以前读过一本书是一个前克格勃特工写的,他讲到苏联的一个实验室,那里曾经发生过一场可怕的事故有一次事故导致大约500人死亡,他们当时在试图制造埃博拉和天花的混合体——天哪——然后再把它做成气溶胶。哦,老天。好,现在你看,从严格的、价值中立的科学角度来说,追求这一支知识

of knowledge and pursuing any other now you say well that's preposterous it's like yeah yes but it's Preposterous because we know that you can have an evil scientist I mean Jesus that's the Trope of how many movies is evil scientist a uses evil scientist as a Trope like the bad guy is almost always an evil scientist right so it's not like we don't know this so that science itself which is the value free pursuit of facts can be an evil Enterprise if you're a good scientist the story is always lurking in the background like why are you conducting your investigation well I want to understand more about the human psyche well why well I want to be of Aid to the human Enterprise I want to make things better that's the story I want to pursue truth in a manner that makes things better that's the story part well you and you might say well that's self-evidence like it's only self-evident when it's working properly when it's not working properly things get bad quick so there were scientists in Unit 731 when the Japanese invaded
和追求任何别的知识没有区别。这时你会说,这太荒谬了,对,是荒谬,但它之所以荒谬是因为我们知道世上会有邪恶的科学家,天哪,这可是多少电影里的经典套路啊,邪恶科学家把邪恶科学家当成套路,坏人几乎总是个邪恶科学家,对吧,所以并不是我们不知道这一点,所以说科学本身——也就是价值中立地追求事实——是可以成为一项邪恶事业的。如果你是个好科学家,故事总是潜伏在背景里,比如,你为什么要做这项研究?嗯,我想更多地理解人类的心灵为什么呢?嗯,我想对人类这项事业有所帮助,我想让事情变得更好——这就是故事。我想以让世界变好的方式去追求真理,这就是故事的部分。你可能会说,这不是不言自明的吗?可它只有在一切运转正常时才是不言自明的,一旦运转不正常,事情会迅速变糟。所以,当年有些科学家在731部队里,就是日本侵华的时候,你根本没法读他们干了什么而不让自己

China and you cannot read about what they did without without traumatizing yourself permanently for the rest of your life right what happened with Unit 731 it's the worst human atrocity I've ever seen by a lot and that was the scientific Enterprise gone astray let's say it has to be encapsulated within a value structure and the question is well what's the appropriate value structure we're starting to figure that out because you know I talked to Richard Dawkins about this a little bit one of the things that disheartens Dawkins is that as the humanistic Enterprise has progressed and as the atheistic impulse has made itself more manifest The Assault on science and logic at the universities has intensified cuz his notion was if we could just free oursel from the superstitions of the past everyone would become like a hybrid between let's say Newton and bacon and dekart it's like no it turns out that when you destabilize the underlying story everybody becomes a narcissistic immature psychopath and
受到终生无法磨灭的创伤,对吧。731部队发生的事,是我见过的最惨烈的人类暴行没有之一,差距很大,那就是科学事业彻底走上了歧途。所以说,它必须被包裹在一个价值结构里,而问题是,什么才是合适的价值结构?我们才刚开始把这个想明白因为,你知道,我和理查德·道金斯稍微聊过这个,让道金斯感到沮丧的一件事是随着人本主义事业的推进,随着无神论冲动越来越显性化,大学里对科学和逻辑的攻击反而加剧了。因为他原本的设想是,只要我们能从过去的迷信中解放出来,每个人都会变成牛顿、培根和笛卡尔的混合体。结果并不是,事实证明,当你动摇了底层的那个故事,每个人都会变成自恋、不成熟的精神病态者,他们当不了好科学家,而且

they don't make good scientists and like the evidence for that is kind of Stark because I'm sure you've observed like I've observed that over the last 20 years the scientific Enterprise has become a lot less reliable than it was well for a number of reasons I mean one of the primary ones in my opinion um and I'm familiar with the scientific Community is that that that a lot of science is built on lineages and you know who your advisers were and so forth it relates to funding Etc and it used to be that the primary value with within and across lineages was to seek out new territory I could tell a lot of stories that would take up hours about great advisers telling their students to move into new territories which sounded like get out of my field I'm going to demolish you but instead what they were encouraging them to do was to go on let's use your language New Adventures of responsibility New Frontier but instead what's happened is that 95% of the scientists in a given subfield all work on similar problems pin medals on
这方面的证据相当刺眼,因为我相信你也观察到了,就像我观察到的那样,过去20年里科学事业变得比以前不可靠多了。嗯,这有很多原因,我认为其中最主要的一个——我对科学界还算熟悉——是很多科学是建立在师承脉络上的,你知道,你的导师是谁等等,这关系到经费之类的。而过去,在同一脉络内部以及跨脉络之间,最重要的价值是去开拓新领域。我能讲上好几个小时的故事,都是关于伟大的导师叫自己的学生去开辟新领域的,听上去像是“滚出我的领域,不然我灭了你”,但他们实际上是在鼓励学生去,借用你的说法,去展开新的责任的冒险,去闯新的疆域。但现在的情况是,一个子领域里95%的科学家都在做类似的问题,互相给对方颁奖章,互相背书,互相给钱,结果就是有

大量无人触碰的问题,希望有一天能被研究。另一个后果就是阿尔茨海默症和痴呆领域的那场大丑闻,一个实验室篡改数据,你不禁会想——我是说那不是我的子领域但你退一步看,你会想,这怎么可能持续了15年,所有人都像是皇帝的新衣那样,所有人都同意这就是该做的方向,而实际上那些数据是伪造的,而且有人是知道的,有人知道。这意味着什么呢?这就像是糟糕的家风一代代传下去。我确实认为这一路上的人大多是善意的,但……嗯,是也不是,多少有点在职业经营那方面用力过猛。对,所以是职业主义那一面,而不是科学家那一面,嗯,这个也确实存在。我们来批判地想一想这件事,科学是一项非常奇怪的事业,因为

science is a very weird Endeavor because in order to actually be a scientist you have to put discovering that you're wrong before demonstrating that you're right and that is hard on your career in the short term like if you play that game and you're good at it you can discover something real but that's going to take a while and it's not certain right it's not at all surprising that people would subvert an Enterprise that difficult to the narrow demands of career enhancement it's exactly what you'd expect unless there was a stunningly powerful counterveiling force and that force was powerful enough let's say from 1550 to 1980 so that science worked but that's a short period of time and it's only happened once and we don't know what conditions had to be in place for people to actually like seriously prioritize the truth seriously because that's what a serious scientist does and so it's not surprising that it would degenerate into something like Dynasty and nepotism that's exactly what you'd expect that's
要真正成为一个科学家,你必须把“发现自己错了”放在“证明自己对了”前面,而这在短期内对你的职业生涯是不利的。如果你玩这个游戏而且玩得好,你可能发现一些真实的东西,但那要花很久,而且并不确定,对吧。所以一点都不奇怪人们会把这么艰难的一项事业,扭曲成服务于职业晋升的狭隘需求,这恰恰是你该预料到的,除非存在某种极其强大的反向力量。而那股力量曾经强大到,比如说从1550年到1980年,让科学真的运转起来了。但那是很短的一段时间,而且只发生过一次,我们并不知道需要具备什么样的条件,人们才会真的、认真地把真理放在第一位,是认真的那种,因为那才是一个严肃的科学家该做的。所以它退化成类似王朝和裙带关系的东西,一点都不奇怪这正是你该预料到的,这才是历史上的常态。那么你可能会想,究竟需要什么样的前提条件

the historical Norm so then you might think well what are the preconditions that have to be in place as narrative foundation for there to be at least some some people that are prioritizing the truth I think one needs to reward true adventure and Novelty taking on novel problems and you know these days it's so hard for a scientist to birth an entire New Field and yet there are huge huge sets of untapped problems the the challenge for them is it's difficult to get funding to take on things that are truly new you know there's a lot of discussion these days about challenges with the NIH Etc I think that the biggest challenge regardless of the size of the budget which is also you know an issue that needs to be dealt with and where where it's spent is that we tend to reward science that's already completed that fits with the current narrative and it's very incremental they reward incremental science whereas great science comes through taking great risk and people like you said holding the truth Above All Else and being willing
作为叙事的根基,才能让至少一部分人真的把真理放在第一位?我认为得奖励真正的冒险和创新,奖励去碰全新的问题。而如今一个科学家要开创一整个新领域太难了,可是有大量大量尚未开发的问题。对他们来说难点在于,要为真正全新的东西拿到经费很难。你知道,现在有很多关于NIH等等所面临挑战的讨论。我认为最大的挑战,不论预算规模有多大——当然预算规模本身也是个需要处理的问题,还有钱花在哪里——最大的问题是我们倾向于奖励那些已经做完的、符合当下主流叙事的科学,而且是非常渐进式的,他们奖励渐进式的科学,然而伟大的科学来自于承担巨大的风险,来自于像你说的,把真理置于一切之上,并且愿意

to stake their careers on it and we need to actually reward failure if it involved effort to solve things correctly in other words give give young scientists funding and encourage them to go after novel problems and understand that most of them will fail and that doesn't necessarily mean that they have to be exited out of the University give them a new novel problem to tackle problem is there's so much pressure and you know because you're University Professor I know you know in order to reach tenure you need to you need to reduce the entropy as much as possible in any event I without going down that path too too far I now um understand why you're saying that science in has to invoke story that Mak has to be embedded that makes sense that makes sense otherwise well science is the handmaiden of some story there's no way around that because motivation is the handmaiden of some story and so the motivational framework has to be put in place accurately and the motivational framework for scientific inquiry is very
为此押上自己的职业生涯。而且我们其实需要奖励失败——只要那失败是为了正确地解决问题而付出的努力。换句话说,给年轻科学家经费,鼓励他们去攻全新的问题,并且理解他们中大多数都会失败而失败并不意味着他们就得被赶出大学,给他们一个新的问题再去攻问题在于压力太大了,而且你知道,因为你是大学教授,我知道你懂,为了拿到终身教职,你必须尽可能地把不确定性降到最低。总之,我不往那个方向扯太远了,我现在明白你为什么说科学必须调用故事、必须被嵌入其中了这说得通,这说得通,否则的话……嗯,科学就是某个故事的侍女,这是绕不开的因为动机就是某个故事的侍女,所以那个动机框架必须被准确地建立起来,而科学探究的动机框架是非常严苛的:真理高于一切。对吧,所以如果你把自己整个该死的职业生涯押在

stringent truth above all right so if you state your whole goddamn career on a particular hypothesis and you run a critical study and it turns out that the reason you're famous is invalid you have to publish that why the hell would you do that right and the answer has to be because you hold the truth in relationship to human flourishing higher than the Integrity of your own even your own self valuation well man that's a very diff that's a very difficult thing to establish now you can do that with young scientists to some degree because you can help them understand that as a medium to long-term game there's nothing better than pursuit of the truth and so that's worth a risk it's worth a risk because you can be spectacularly successful if you pursue the truth it's unlikely like it's unlikely to be a successful entrepreneur but if you get it right man you like you've hit the mother load right and you don't want to falsify your data because you want to spend your whole life pursuing something that doesn't exist
某个特定假设上,然后你做了一个关键性的实验,结果发现你之所以出名的那个东西是站不住脚的,你就必须把它发表出来。你他妈为什么要这么做?对吧。答案只能是,因为你把与人类繁荣相连的真理,看得高于你自己的完整性,甚至高于你对自己的评价。天哪,这是件非常……非常难以确立的事。现在,你在某种程度上可以对年轻科学家做到这一点,因为你可以帮他们理解,作为一场中长期的游戏没有什么比追求真理更好的了,所以那值得冒险。值得冒险,因为如果你追求真理,你可能取得惊人的成功。这很难,就像当一个成功的创业者很难一样但如果你做对了,天哪,那你就是挖到大矿了,对吧。而且你不会想伪造数据,因为那意味着你要用一辈子去追求一个根本不存在的东西,因为你会说服自己相信你伪造的东西是真的

because you will talk yourself into belief that your falsifications are true and then you'll warp the whole field as you said you Illustrated that in relationship to Alzheimer's disease like you can instill love of the truth in in your students but you have to believe that's a story too you have to believe that the truth will set you free right and that's a religious presumption in the final analysis serve truth it's the best long-term strategy it's the best adventure that's a good thing to know too it's the best adventure so I made a triumvirate of Truth responsibility and Adventure saying they're the same thing and I figured it out with regard to truth too truth is an adventure because if you what would you say vow to follow the path of the truth you have to let go of the predictability of the outcome right now if I wanted to manipulate you in some way I would craft my strategy for this podcast a priority and then I would tilt the podcast toward that end right and I could be more or less
然后你就会扭曲整个领域,就像你说的,你刚才用阿尔茨海默症举了例子你可以在学生心里种下对真理的热爱,但你得相信——这也是一个故事——你得相信真理会让你自由,对吧,而这归根到底是一个宗教性的预设:服事真理,这是最好的长期策略,也是最好的冒险——这也是件值得知道的事,那是最好的冒险,所以我把真理、责任和冒险合成了一个三位一体,说它们其实是同一回事。关于真理我也想明白了:真理是一种冒险,因为如果你——怎么说呢——发誓要走真理的道路,你就必须放弃结果的可预测性,对吧比如现在,如果我想以某种方式操控你,我会事先为这期播客设计好策略,然后把整期节目往那个方向引,对吧。我可以做得或高明或拙劣,或者我干脆说:我们就顺着这条线索走

走到哪儿算哪儿,我接受它的结果,并且我假定这个结果就是最好的结果是所有可能里最好的,哪怕我看不出为什么。好,那为什么这是冒险?因为如果我放下预设的目标,我就不知道会发生什么,而这很令人兴奋——对,因为不知道。这正是冒险的本质,就好像你正跃行在一片未知的海面上,你不知道接下来会发生什么。那你为什么要拿它去换一种平庸的可预测性呢?嗯,为了经营你的事业之类的——我理解为什么,但你是在放弃真正有价值的东西,去换二流的东西,去换安稳。亚伯拉罕做的正相反,你知道还是去冒险更好,你他妈怎么会不想要这个呢?所以他离开了安逸——他本来什么都有——去追求真正有创生力的东西,去服务于某种更宏大、也更危险的东西。也危险,比如他最后成了个战士

people across time right and there's a marker for that why wouldn't you find your how could it be otherwise then you would find your deepest satisfaction in pursuing the course of action that integrates you psychologically and integrates other people socially like that would assume that there's a concordance between your deepest self-interest and the interest of your society and it better be that way because otherwise you couldn't Thrive as an individual in society so it better be that way and we've been doing this for a very long time as human beings so why we wouldn't have an instinct to mark that pathway and of course we'd find our deepest satisfaction in that I mean once you once you see these issues through that light they become I think painfully obvious so because that also because the contrary hypothesis is absurd it's like you're going to find deep satisfaction what rejecting knowledge and if you do happen to stumble across a nugget you're going to hoard it for yourself right well right right exactly it's laughable
怎么可能不是这样呢?你当然会在那条既能在心理上整合你又能在社会上整合他人的行动路线里,找到最深的满足感。这就预设了你最深的自身利益和你所处社会的利益之间是一致的。而且最好就是这样,否则你就无法作为个体在社会中兴旺。所以最好就是这样。而我们人类已经这样生活了非常非常久所以我们怎么会没有一种本能去标记那条路径呢?我们当然会在那里找到最深的满足。我是说,一旦你一旦你从这个角度去看这些问题,我觉得它们就变得显而易见到近乎刺眼。因为还有一点,就是相反的假设太荒谬了——难道说,你会在拒斥知识里找到深层满足?而且如果你碰巧捡到一块金子,你还要自己藏起来?对吧——对对,正是如此,这很可笑

显然很可笑,没人真信这个。我们前面谈到怎么把这件事落到实处——就是那种努力那种从潜在的混乱走向秩序的召唤,它从整理自己的物理空间开始。如果我们要把靶心的圈再往外扩一点,对那些正在琢磨的听众来说,他们到底在哪里接收到那个召唤?他们怎么找到自己的天职?责任和冒险也许就是那个让我们能够导航的指南针。那他们会想,我到底能从哪里抓住自己的责任然后因为这么做而进入冒险,并且产生一种对自己好、对世界也好的影响他们要怎么找到那个?我觉得这些问题有非常实际的答案在圣经典籍里,对“神性”最高阶的两种刻画,一个是召唤(calling),一个是良知(conscience)。你可以把它们看成是正面情绪和负面情绪的

你能按照自己的秩序标准把东西整理好的地方开始,然后看看会发生什么。因为接下来会发生的是你有了一小块、一小角的秩序,你的处境就好了那么一点,然后你就能看清下一步是什么。你可能会觉得,这看起来没希望啊,因为到处都是混乱。但没关系,因为这个过程是指数式的。所以哪怕你从零开始,只要不断翻倍,你就会走到某个地方,而且比你想的更快。而当你正往深渊里坠落、陷进那些退化性的东西时,也是同样的道理。我有个同事他是遗传学家,他说,进化出一个物种需要非常非常多代,但要让一个物种退化并不需要几代。负面突变会一个叠一个,非常非常快地把一个物种搞垮。我觉得我们的心灵在这方面也很类似嗯,那是个熵的问题——把一个复杂的东西弄坏的方式,远比把它变好的方式多得多对吧,所以那才是一条又直又窄的路。我父亲从阿根廷来到这个国家,他成长在

我想我首先会去寻找的,是病理性自恋。思维紊乱也有可能,但他在学业上相当成功。像精神分裂性解体这类情况的典型模式,是非常非常难以维持在高度智力化环境里的自律和进取——而他是毕业生代表他念完了书、顺利毕业。我更倾向于认为是那种路西法式的自大,而智识特别容易陷进去。你知道智识过度僭越的原型表现就是路西法,对吧,上帝最高的天使堕落得最为惨烈。这意味着,在它本位上最好的东西,一旦居于顶端反而成了最坏的东西。这在性方面会发生,在攻击性上会发生,在智识上更是一定会发生。所以我认为他是个崇拜自己智识的人,并且相信自己就是那个可以做出决定的人——甚至是生死的决定也就是说他把终极审判者的角色揽到了自己身上,科伦拜枪击案的那个孩子也是这么做的,而且

Joe built it was something that happened around him in consequence of the nature of his Pursuit and that's the case for virtually all the successful podcasters I think people forget how Joe's podcast started do you you might know this story I'll keep it brief but um he was a comedian at The Comedy Store he had done some television and things of that sort but um and people can find this online the videos are on YouTube where a comedian was stealing Ari shaffir's jokes so Joe got up on stage and said there's a there's a um there's some ethics in the comedy community people can buy jokes but you you don't steal jokes apparently and there's an etiquette as well so apparently he confronted this guy in front of the audience and said you're stealing his jokes and the guy challenged him and Joe said no like Joe was stood up in the name of justice for a friend of his and my understanding could be wrong about this but my understanding is that Joe was then banished from that particular particular Comedy Club so what did he do
乔刻意“建”出来的,它是围绕着他自然发生的,是他所追求的事情本身的结果,几乎所有成功的播客主播都是这样。我觉得大家忘了乔的播客是怎么开始的,你可能知道这个故事我长话短说。他当时是Comedy Store的喜剧演员,也上过一些电视节目之类的这些人在网上都能找到,视频就在YouTube上。当时有个喜剧演员在偷阿里·沙菲尔的段子,于是乔上台说喜剧圈是有一套伦理的,段子可以买,但你不能偷段子。而且也有一套行规。所以他当着观众的面质问那个人,说你在偷他的段子,那人不服,乔说不行。乔是为了一个朋友挺身而出、为正义发声我的理解可能有误,但据我了解,乔因此被那家喜剧俱乐部封杀了。那他怎么做呢?他回家打开笔记本电脑,和布莱恩·雷德班还有另外几个

人一起,开始做了后来的乔·罗根播客。它源于一种为真相挺身而出的冲动,我觉得这一点很重要大家应该明白,因为这能帮你理解乔。是啊,我也这么认为是的,他并不声称自己永远正确,但他对真相的追求一直是这个播客的驱动力。他一贯声称自己还不够正确,所以他才会倾听、才会提问。如果你觉得自己什么都懂了,就不会问出真诚的问题;只有当你觉得自己知道得还不够时,才会问出真问题。而乔之所以能长期吸引他的听众,正是因为他问的就是听众自己想知道答案的问题。对,他是真的好奇。绝对是。马斯克自己也说过,我采访他的时候,他谈到他十三四岁时经历的一场可怕的存在主义危机,这在那些智力出众的人身上

when he was 13 14 which is not atypical of you know out people with outstanding intellects let's say um and he resolved that by recognizing that the quest is the source of meaning and so he took it upon himself self to confront difficult problems and try to solve them and he found that to be sufficiently gratifying so his existential crisis resolved itself and that's very much the same pattern that Rogan is exemplifying and you in your Pursuits and you can see what impact it has on the public you know and we were I was talking with one of your staff members before this podcast about your lectures say in Australia and so you're in the weird position where 5,000 people come and listen to a biologist lecture spontaneously for what 90 minutes like what the hell well that's just an indication of how compelled people are by anything approximating a genuine Quest it doesn't even matter the direction right it matters the commitment and that capacity to explore and transmit and that is a manifestation
其实并不罕见。他后来是通过认识到“追寻本身就是意义的来源”而走出来的,于是他主动去面对困难的问题并试图解决它们,他发现这足以带来满足感于���他的存在主义危机自行化解了。罗根身上体现的是同样的模式,你在你的事业里也是,而且你能看到它对公众产生了什么影响。录这期播客之前我还跟你的一位同事聊起你在澳大利亚的演讲,你现在处在一个很奇怪的位置:五千人自发跑来听一个生物学家讲课,讲九十分钟这算什么事啊。这恰恰说明,人们对任何接近真正“追寻”的东西有多么着迷,方向甚至都不重要,重要的是那份投入,以及探索和传递的能力,而那正是

而他现在正沿着这架梯子往上走。所以他找到了自己的目标,找到了自己的冒险,而这正是他决心变好的结果好,那么现在你想找到自己的目标。第一件事,你得审视自己实际上有多可悲、多糟糕,你必须直面这一点,然后你得想,我不想再这样了,而且这必须是真心的。接着你得向上看齐。此刻你并不知道那意味着什么,因为你相当散漫堕落,但至少你心里有了那个该死的意图,然后你得愿意在这一路上做出必要的牺牲。好,接下来会怎样?接下来道路就会一点一点向你显现。召唤就是:这附近有没有什么我能修好、而且我愿意去修的东西?这是个很好的问题。手边有没有什么我能修好、而且我愿意去修的?可能是很不起眼的小事,因为尤其在你刚起步的时候,你什么都干不好,所以你可能得从相当琐碎的事开始,但这

没关系,因为你会开始变好。有没有什么让我心里不舒服的事——那就是良知——是我能在某个小地方纠正过来的?每个人身边都有这样的事,哪怕是在最灾难性的混乱之中,那条路你甚至可以说,你周围的混乱越多,你拥有的未成形的可能性就越多。这是真的,我不是想在这件事上唱什么盲目乐观的高调,我知道那有多难,但事实就是,你眼前能看到的混乱越多,那里的机会就越多。因为你既然能看出它是一团乱,你就能看到把它收拾干净的路径。那就去做啊,去做,看看会发生什么,那就是冒险。我在课上,我那门《意义的地图》课上,以前会让学生做这样一个作业,其中一个作业就是:找一件你身边的、你社区里的、或者你家里的、没有摆正的事,看看你能不能把它摆正,然后把发生的事写下来。有一个学生特别典型,他母亲去世了,家庭有点分崩离析,于是他决定试着

承担起母亲的角色,你知道,负责让家里正常运转。可想而知,这让他飞速地成熟起来。他遇到了各种奇怪的阻力,因为家里人对他做妈妈以前做的事感到不安。他因为愿意去做这件事,经历了一场极其复杂的冒险,而这件事显然是必须做的,因为另一种可能就是他的家庭彻底散掉。这样的机会对每个人都存在。你说,我的处境太艰难了,那好吧,顺便说一句,别人的处境也一样难,但这恰恰意味着有很多东西可以修啊。是的,我修好了一点,而这本身就极其有趣、极其难以预料,光这一点就很了不起。你完全不知道会发生什么,就像你当初开始做播客时也不知道会发生什么一样。你当初为什么要做?对我来说,我感到一种冲动,想把我知道的东西分享出去。因为疫情期间所有人都只盯着疫苗和封控

把这件事做得更大规模一些,技术也现成,为什么不去试试呢?这完全合情合理。你能从中看到召唤与良知的相互作用,这是对“神圣之声”的一种很美的描述方式,而它也正是被这样反复描述的。以利亚,以利亚就是新约里耶稣在山上变容时与他一同显现的先知是以利亚和摩西。以利亚是人类历史上第一个把神圣与良知等同起来的人这是他的贡献,是一场重大的心理学革命,一次未被充分认识的理解上的转变,就像是,它并不是暴风——不是山火,不是地震,也不是自然之神,他是那个说法的源头——那句「细微的声音」,对吧,就是说你的良知就是神的声音,我的天哪,几乎没有任何发现、没有任何命题比这更具革命性了,所以

非常——这是一个非常精确、表述得非常恰当的祷告。是啊,我每期播客前都祷告,睡前也祷告,我这样做大概有一年多了,我一直都是悄悄地、私下地——你为什么决定这么做的?我走向祷告和神这整套观念的过程,背景其实挺复杂的,因为我一直都在偷偷祷告,一直都是悄悄地、私下地祷告,然后大概一年、一年半之前,我安保团队里的一个人开始跟我聊《圣经》,我们开始聊神,这让我觉得讲得通。我开始读《圣经》,还没读完,然后我开始祷告,并且因为祷告而有了一些经历,很明显是祷告带来的,这些经历让我意识到,祷告并不是赋予我某种能力,它只是让某些我相信本来就在我内心的东西得以显现出来。而恰当的祷告能确立目标。是的,没错。是啊,为什么不确立

你的目标呢?为什么不在开始录播客之前花点时间,想清楚你到底想达成什么,并且把它牢牢记在心里呢?是啊,而且感觉真的不一样。我得说,我有一个小清单,我有时候会讲:比如有意识的呼吸,也就是呼吸练习,可以让你改变自己的状态;催眠是一种工具,能帮你解决某个特定问题,因为它涉及神经可塑性的某些方面;还有非睡眠深度休息(NSDR),这个是从一种叫瑜伽休息术(yoga nidra)的练习发展出来的,你进入一种清醒但深度放松的状态,可以恢复精力;冥想对我来说是一种提升专注能力的方式,比如第三眼冥想、专注于呼吸等等,我们从数据上知道它能改善专注力。而祷告对我来说跟上面这些完全不同,虽然有些重叠,它们从外表看起来有点像,有些看起来很像。祷告对我而言,是允许某种

outside prayer is the the for me is the allowing of something from TR truly outside me to come through me and bring out the best it in me and that's why I pray for four things I pray for Ability I pray for other people and I also have learned that a powerful aspect of prayer is just listening because just stopping and listening and trying to um invite in or allow in messages that um if I didn't steal myself that I wouldn't here and sometimes I'll go to sleep and then the next morning something will will come to mind it's not always immediate well I don't think there's any real difference between that and Revelation so imagine that um what speaks to you in intuition is the voice of your aim now this this would be this would be true if your thoughts and the images that appear to you are tools so to speak to orient you towards your destination well obviously they have to be that because if your thoughts and your Visions let's say didn't Orient you towards your destination they would be useless and you'd never get anywhere
真正来自我之外的东西穿过我,把我身上最好的一面带出来,所以我会为四件事祷告:我为能力祷告,我为别人祷告,而且我还学到,祷告一个很有力量的方面就是单纯地聆听,因为停下来聆听,试着邀请或者允许那些信息进来——如果我不让自己静下来,我是听不到的。有时候我睡下去,第二天早上某个念头就浮现出来了,不总是立刻就来。嗯,我不认为那跟启示有什么本质区别。你可以这样想:在直觉中对你说话的,就是你目标的声音。这成立的前提是,你的思想和浮现在你脑中的意象,可以说是用来把你导向你的目的地的工具。显然它们必须是这样,因为如果你的思想、你的所谓异象没有把你导向你的目的地,那它们就毫无用处,你哪儿也去不了。好,那么现在你确立了你的目标,而

okay so now you specify your aim and it is the voice of that aim that will make itself manifest to you that is what a revelation is and one of these days when we have a podcast I'd like to sit down and talk to you about the relationship the formal relationship between thought and prayer because I think thought is secularized prayer I'm I I we looked at it histo because like when did we start to think that's not so obvious you know I mean we started to think in words after we developed the ability to use language what's that 1 15,000 years maybe it's longer than that no one really knows but thought has its historical Origins the probability that it emerged from something like prayer as far as I can tell is 100% but I'd like to at some point it's complicated but I'd like to have a discussion with you about that so imagine that to have an in to have an informative intuition means that you posit a question like and that's a form of humility it's like there's something I need to know that I don't know that I
向你显现出来的,正是那个目标的声音——这就是所谓的启示。哪天我们再录一期播客,我想坐下来跟你聊聊思考和祷告之间的关系,那种形式上的关系,因为我认为思考就是世俗化的祷告。我们从历史角度看过这个问题,因为你想,我们是什么时候开始思考的?这其实并不那么显而易见。我是说,我们是在具备了使用语言的能力之后,才开始用词语思考的,那是多久?一万五千年?也许更久,没人真正知道。但思考是有其历史起源的,它从类似祷告的东西中演化出来的概率,在我看来是百分之百。不过我想找个时候——这很复杂,但我想跟你好好讨论一下这个。所以你想想,要获得一个有信息量的直觉,意味着你得提出一个问题,而提问本身就是一种谦卑:就是说有些东西我需要知道、我还不知道、我有可能知道、我也想知道。

could know that I'd like to know it's like so you set the stage well once you set the stage the probability that a creative idea will enter the theater of your imagination is much enhanced that's the first stage of Revelation then you have to assess that that's discriminating the spirits you might say you're separating the wheat from the chaff that's critical thinking but all of that as far as I can tell is something approximating secularized prayer set your aim then observe the manifestation of that aim that it's not it's not even magical it's how your perception works now there's a magic to it because I suppose the magic is that you can think up something you never thought up before how the hell do you do that it's more like you experience it right you set your aim you have a question so you're on your knees hoping for an answer the light bulb goes on well if that's not Revelation then what the hell is it it's the same thing having spent a good portion of my career digging around in brains
就这样,你搭好了舞台。而一旦你搭好舞台,一个有创造性的想法走进你想象力剧场的概率就大大提高了——这是启示的第一阶段。然后你得去评估它,也就是所谓的「分辨诸灵」,你在把麦子和糠秕分开,这就是批判性思考。但所有这一切,在我看来,都近似于世俗化的祷告:确立你的目标,然后观察那个目标的显现。这甚至都不算神奇,这就是你的知觉运作的方式。当然其中确实有神奇之处,我想那个神奇之处在于你能想出一个你从来没想到过的东西——你他妈到底是怎么做到的?更像是你「经历」到它,对吧,你确立目标,你有一个问题,于是你跪下来期待一个答案,然后灯泡亮了。如果那都不算启示,那他妈的什么才算?这是一回事。我职业生涯有很大一部分时间是在研究大脑,

被引用最多的学者,而福柯认为我们所演绎的那个故事是关于权力的,这是错的,而且不只是错,是那种荒谬而危险的错。我认为它在技术层面上就是错的,同时在伦理层面上也是错的,部分原因在于,权力无法为心理整合或社会统一提供一个稳定的基础,就是不行。权力在适应性上也许比屈服和依附更有效,但它绝不是一个最优解,怎么想都不是。而且我认为有数据能证明这一点。我在这本书《与神角力的我们》里阐述了这个。埃里希·诺伊曼、卡尔·荣格、米尔恰·伊利亚德等一大批人,勾勒出了宗教思维的模式,这花了二十世纪的大部分时间才完成,他们发现了一些非常深刻的反复出现的主题。举个例子,古埃及人崇拜荷鲁斯这位神。大家都知道荷鲁斯,因为他的标志就是那只眼睛,那只睁开的眼睛。那这意味着什么?某种程度上它意味着古埃及人崇拜的是「注意力」,他们认为注意力之神是

「天上诸神之战」——这是一个非常常见的神话母题。有一场战争,它朝着一神论整合,而伊利亚德在多个文化中追溯了这一点,这非常——非常值得了解,因为它解释了在数万年间,整合的、有文字能力的人类心灵是如何浮现出来的,其象征体系被记录在故事里。所以你可以这样想:A部落、B部落、C部落,它们各自都有自己的最高神,或者一整套神系。现在它们要统一了。好,在统一的过程中它们打仗、竞争,也合作,它们互相杀戮,同时也合作和贸易。与此同时,在观念的空间里,它们各自的神祇之间也在打仗。你可以把人类看作是在把那场战争演出来,也可以反过来把那场抽象层面的战争看作是对地上冲突的映照。而那场冲突是有模式的,那个模式在跨文化中相当稳定:只要多元的文化在统一,它就朝着一神论的统一倾斜。显然嘛,它们要靠什么

monotheistic unity in so far as the multiplicity of cultures unifies well obviously like what are they going to unify with in the absence of conceptual Unity I don't think so and why wouldn't it be that the movement towards that conceptual Unity which is the establishment of a larger scale civilization would involve the battle between ideas of the Divine and their integration into something resembling a Unity like clearly well that's part of the Proclamation let's say of the analytic psychologists that were all part of Carl school and the academy just ignored that entirely except for Camille Pia who understands this quite profoundly and went in the direction of Fuko these are these lineages that we were talking about before it's it's hard for people to appreciate just how powerful these academic lineages are and scientific lineages are because they they set trajectories I've been yeah and they Define what's forbidden like all my all the people that advised me as a graduate student even those who had my
来统一,如果没有概念上的统一的话?我不觉得可能。那么,为什么走向这种概念统一的过程——也就是建立更大规模文明的过程——不会包含关于神性的各种观念之间的战斗呢?通向某种类似“统一体”的整合方式。当然,这某种程度上正是那批分析心理学家所宣告的,他们都属于荣格那一派,而学界完全无视了这一点,除了卡米尔·帕格利亚,她对此理解得相当深刻,但后来走向了福柯。这就是我们刚才说的那些脉络,人们很难体会到这些学术脉络和科学脉络有多强大,因为它们设定了轨迹。是的,而且它们定义了什么是禁忌,比如我读研究生时所有指导过我的人,哪怕是那些真心为我着想的人,都叫我千万别谈我对荣格

心理学的兴趣。真的吗?对。抱歉我在笑,因为这太荒唐了。是啊,而且,这其实也不奇怪,我是说我一直都在谈,我去面试工作的时候也谈,那确实是我在有些面试的地方被刷掉的部分原因不过幸运的是哈佛录用了我,所以我讨论的那些东西在很多地方是禁忌,但在那里不是,所以你知道,结果还挺不错的。我正想说,显然结果很好。我一直想问你一件事,我最近在读一本非常有意思的书,基本上是建立在阿德勒心理学基础上的。是啊,我以前不太了解阿德勒心理学。阿德勒非常务实。这本书把阿德勒讲成是弗洛伊德和荣格的一个对照面。是哪本书?嗯,书名叫《被讨厌的勇气》,我强烈推荐给所有人。它其实是日本作者写的,我记得是两位日本作者。这本书在美国没那么火,但它有很大的读者群

didn't get quite so popular in this country but it it had a big following um in Japan and I think in other places in uh in Asia and um the book is is set up as a conversation between essentially a philosopher at of adarian psychology and a student um who's challenging him so it's a conversation that raises all the all the challenges that one that would come to one's mind if you were to be presented with this idea of Life tasks and that we're supposed to discard with our thoughts about prior trauma and just figure out what are our tasks now right right and I I like the practicality of it Adler's very practical yeah I like that was just curious what your thoughts were about that the it seems to fit quite well with your your Notions and what you've talked about in multiple books including the most recent one um the one that's out now about getting really serious about what your tasks are at this moment in time and embracing those tasks as a way to progress forward as opposed to um floundering in Notions
在日本,我想在亚洲其他地方也是。这本书的结构是一场对话,基本上是一位阿德勒心理学的哲学家和一个学生之间的对话,学生不断质疑他,所以这场对话把所有你在被抛出“人生课题”这个概念时,脑子里会冒出来的质疑,全都提出来了还有我们应该抛开对过去创伤的种种想法,直接去弄清楚我们现在的课题是什么,对吧对,我很喜欢它的务实。阿德勒非常务实。对,我很喜欢,我只是好奇你对这个怎么看。它似乎和你的那些观念、和你在多本书里讲过的东西非常契合,包括最近的那本就是现在正在卖的那本,讲的是要真正认真对待你此时此刻的课题,并去拥抱那些课题,以此向前推进,而不是在关于过去的种种想法里挣扎不前。我觉得它

about the the past and I think it it might it might hit some people Square upside the head when when there's I think one of the chapters opens with the words there's no such thing as trauma which is clearly not true but the whole idea is to to prompt a different way of thinking and to let people start to drill into like okay what do I need to do now regardless of what my parents did or didn't do right regardless of my damaged self and I I must say I really like the book well I would say I should say I I really like I should say I really like the concept embracing task while agonizing over the meaning of life and what one is to do yes well Adler was the most practical of the small crowd that aggregated around Freud and so yung's take was that Freud focused on sex and Adler focused on Power and Yung focused on what transcended both and I think that's right now Adler is a good repost to Freud in exactly the way you described if you like that book and you're interested in all three of them let's say there's a great book called
可能会让有些人当头一棒,因为我记得其中有一章的开头就是这么一句话:根本不存在所谓的创伤。这显然不是真的,但整个用意是要引发一种不同的思考方式,让人们开始往下深挖:好,那我现在需要做什么?不管我父母做了什么或没做什么,对吧,也不管我这个受损的自我。我得说我真的很喜欢这本书。嗯,我应该说,我真的很喜欢……我应该说,我很喜欢这个理念:在为人生的意义、为自己该做什么而痛苦纠结的同时去拥抱课题。是的。嗯,阿德勒是聚集在弗洛伊德周围那一小群人里最务实的一个,所以荣格的看法是:弗洛伊德聚焦于性,阿德勒聚焦于权力,而荣格聚焦于超越这两者的东西。我觉得这是对的。阿德勒确实是对弗洛伊德一个很好的回击,正是你描述的那种方式。如果你喜欢那本书的话你对这三个人都感兴趣的话,有一本很棒的书叫《发现无意识》(The Discovery of the Unconscious),作者是

discovery of the unconscious which was written by a man named hre elenberger who was the foremost exponent of existential psychology in the 1950s brilliant brilliant scholar and it is the best analysis of Freud Jung and Adler that's ever been written by a lot and it's it's a truly great book he also traces the idea of the unconscious back 350 years before Freud so it's a masterful study but I liked Adler and he was much less charismatic than Freud and Yung and so his star didn't shine as brightly but he's very practically oriented and much of his thinking would what would you say fits quite nicely with a bottom with the same kind of bottom up approach that a more behaviorally oriented psychotherapist would employ so look it's it's it's there are some people if you're if you're engaging in a therapeutic process with someone there are people who are best engaged with at the level of concept those are people are high in trait openness not everyone's like that in fact most people aren't like that yungi
一个叫亨利·艾伦伯格(Henri Ellenberger)的人,他是1950年代存在主义心理学最主要的代表人物,一位非常非常出色的学者,而这本书是迄今为止对弗洛伊德、荣格和阿德勒最好的分析,好出一大截,它真的是一本了不起的书。他还把无意识这个概念追溯到弗洛伊德之前350年,所以这是一部功力深厚的研究。不过我很喜欢阿德勒,他远不如弗洛伊德和荣格那么有魅力,所以他的名声没那么响亮,但他非常注重实践,他的很多思考,怎么说呢,跟自下而上的那种路径配合得相当好,就是偏行为取向的心理治疗师会采用的那种自下而上的方法。所以你看,有些人——如果你在跟某个人进行治疗过程,有些人最适合在概念层面上去沟通,那些人在开放性这个特质上得分很高,但不是所有人都这样,事实上大多数人都不是这样。荣格

and psychology works really well on highly creative people and almost all yung's clients were creative because they wouldn't have come to him otherwise and there's also people for whom sexual dysfunction and Trauma are the primary what would you say say the the primary preoccupation of their life and the past and Freud serves them well Adler is very practical and if you're looking for a psychologist to help you figure out how you could advance from where you are now he's he's he's got plenty of things to say that are good he also wasn't as good a literary stylist as young Yung or Freud so that also put him off to the side to some degree but anyways a deep deeper investigations can certainly be found in discovery of the unconscious and if for anybody listening and watching who's interested in psychological ideas broadly and would like familiarity with the psychoanalytic tradition Freud Jung and Adler let's say primary there is not a better book than discovery of the unconscious it's really a work of Genius
心理学在极具创造力的人身上效果非常好,而荣格的来访者几乎全都是创造型的人,因为不然他们根本不会去找他。还有一些人,性功能障碍和创伤是他们生活中最主要的,怎么说呢,最主要的关注点,还有过去的经历,对这些人弗洛伊德很管用。阿德勒则非常务实,如果你想找一位心理学家帮你弄清楚怎么从现在的处境往前走,他有很多很好的东西可以讲。另外他的文笔也不如荣格或弗洛伊德,所以这在某种程度上也让他被边缘化了。不管怎样,更深入的探讨肯定能在《发现无意识》里找到。对于所有在听、在看的人,如果你对心理学思想有广泛的兴趣,想要熟悉精神分析传统——主要就是弗洛伊德、荣格和阿德勒——没有比《发现无意识》更好的书了,它真的是一部天才之作。你知道这个领域的文献里缺了什么吗——顺便说一句,谢谢你推荐这些——

顺便说,这跟皮亚杰对童年社会化的观察完全吻合。我当时读到潘克塞普,就想,噢这太酷了,现在我们有了皮亚杰发展理论的心理生理学基础,太完美了。是啊,所以那真是一种美妙的契合。潘克塞普本该获得更多的认可,可惜他当时在保龄格林大学,我想是,学校规模比较小吧,我也不清楚,我从来没听过他讲课,也许他不像当时神经科学界其他一些名人那么有魅力。不过我确实不知道他讲课水平如何,但他文笔很好,而且他在心理学研究方面有一种识别真问题的独到眼光,而且在这方面非常勇敢,我的意思是,他研究了大鼠的笑声,你会想,天哪,这么多荒唐的事情里怎么偏偏研究这个,其实不是这样,你只是不明白目标在哪里,或者大鼠之间的玩耍,谁在乎大鼠玩得好不好,这种研究提案大概会被

很长时间才意识到这一点,我从大概 13 岁起就一直在深入研究恶,恶比善更容易定义,很难找到一个能把所有善的东西整合起来、又能简单指出来的范畴,但玩耍是暴政的对立面这个事实,似乎是一个相当好的概括,比如潘克塞普就证明过,如果动物被任何其他动机状态所支配,玩耍就不会出现,事情必须安排得非常妥当,玩耍才会出现。如果你的孩子能玩耍,你的家就处在最佳结构状态;如果你和妻子在过日子时能有玩耍的成分,你的婚姻就处在最佳结构状态。我认为,玩耍那种怎么说呢,那种最优的、居于最高位的本质,会在你看着某个在自己领域已臻化境的人时显现出来,而马斯克就是在玩,但愿这会带来好的结果,特朗普也在玩,这是让我对他不那么疑虑的原因之一,他幽默得要命,虽然手法很粗野,他

to serve as the proper corrective to the excesses that will definitely emerge in the Trump Administration especially if they face no credible opposition always happens sorry I didn't mean to didn't mean to interrupt before we started we were touching on this a little bit and you said something which was that you're hoping for a really formidable strong Democratic party to counter the Republican party and you are and you're saying it again now you're concerned that if there isn't one that power corrupts might run a muck oh yes well of course it will it always does you know and that the Republicans themselves who might wish well this remarkable group of people that's aggregated around Trumpets like they should hope for themselves that they have an effective opposition because someone's got to be telling you where you're stupid and if the Democrats so this is another public invitation to the Democrats which is like must be the 50th one that I've issued if you have something to say you know I'd be happy
尤其是在他们面对不了任何像样的反对派的情况下,这种事总会发生。抱歉,我不是有意——不是有意打断。我们开始之前就稍微聊到过这一点,你当时说了一句话,就是你希望有一个真正强大有力的民主党来制衡共和党,你现在又说了一遍,你担心如果没有这样一个反对派,权力就会腐化、失控。哦对,当然会,一向如此,你知道的。而且共和党人自己,他们可能也会希望——聚集在特朗普周围的这群了不起的人,他们自己就该希望有一个有效的反对派,因为总得有人告诉你你哪里犯蠢了。所以,如果民主党——这又是一次公开邀请民主党,这大概是我发出的第五十次邀请了——如果你们有什么想说的,你们知道,我很乐意

to talk and so would many people who've expressed similar sentiment to me in the alternative media world and that offer has been on the table for for years so I hope that I'm afraid that all the people with any real courage or virtually all them be chased out of the democratic party they're all afraid of being cancelled which is why they wouldn't appear on my podcast to begin with it's like why does Peterson always interview conservatives it's like well how come how about because they'll talk to me you know there's a simple explanation and definitely a true one so maybe that can shift and there's got to be somebody in the Democrats who's got enough courage to forge a new Direction and if they want to continue with this same old pattern of woke idiocy well go right ahead it's not going to work the Tide's already turned in that regard I think that judging from some of the um article titles that I've um seen at uh New York Times and other venues it seems like there might be some consideration
聊聊,另类媒体圈里许多向我表达过类似看法的人也一样乐意,这个邀请已经摆在桌上好多年了。所以我希望——恐怕所有还有点真正勇气的人,或者说几乎所有这样的人,都已经被赶出民主党了。他们都害怕被取消,这也是他们一开始就不肯上我播客的原因。就像有人问,为什么彼得森老是采访保守派?那要不然这么说吧,因为只有他们愿意跟我聊啊。你知道,这有个很简单的解释,而且绝对是真的。所以也许情况能有所改变,民主党里总得有人有足够的勇气开辟一个新方向,如果他们想继续沿用这种老一套的觉醒派蠢事,那就请便吧,这行不通,这方面的风向已经变了。我觉得,从我在《纽约时报》和其他媒体上看到的一些文章标题来看,似乎他们对此是有一些反思的,他们在讨论民主党的

重组,谁来领导,谁会成为他们的那个乔·罗根——顺便说一句,这是个很傻的问题,是最傻的问题。我们搞科学的会说,他是独一无二的样本,别,别去试,这整件事的重点是要创造出——你为什么会想——不可能,是啊,没错,乔不是偶然冒出来的,乔非常非常非常聪明,特别聪明。如果你以为——这就好比,是乔自己一手打造了这个东西,这不是一个政党会采用的打造方式。首先,这不是他打造出来的,不是那样,不是靠事先规划,好让民主党能够有自己的声音,他就是做他自己,是的,没错而某个自称民主党人的人也会那样做,但不是靠模仿他,那是不可能的不会的,他们会通过搞清楚对这个新的、古怪的共和党群体的反对立场应该是什么来做到这一点以及可以提出什么样的、有吸引力的愿景,你知道,我今天看到有个民主党人声称民主党才是工人阶级真正的代言人

know I read today some democrat claiming that the Democrats are the true voice of the working class it's like I don't think so I think that ship is sailed and maybe the Democrats should be the true voice of the working class but they're certainly not and in principle that would mean that there's an opportunity there on the Democrat side to forge A New Path mean Clinton managed that in the 90s this this has happened many times it could happen again but there's a lot of learning that's going to have to take place before that happens so certainly learning about this new alternative media environment if you can't sit down for three hours and say what you actually think actually what you think right regardless of what might do to your reputation let's say you're not going to be successful in the podcast world that's absolutely true right podcasting is real I even for I'll just say because perhaps it's of Interest or maybe even actionable for people I mean I I get a little frightened every podcast certainly if I'm going to talk
我觉得不是吧,我觉得那班船已经开走了,也许民主党应该成为工人阶级真正的代言人,但他们现在肯定不是,原则上这意味着民主党那边有机会开辟一条新路,克林顿在90年代就做到了,这种事发生过很多次,还可能再发生,但有很多东西是要在那之前必须先发生一些事情,所以了解这个新的另类媒体环境确实很重要,如果你没法坐下来聊三个小时、说出你真正的想法,说出你真实的想法,对吧,不管这可能对你的声誉造成什么影响——那你在播客这个世界里就不会成功,这一点绝对没错,播客是真实的。我甚至——我就说一下,因为这也许有点意思,或者对大家来说甚至是可以付诸实践的。我是说,我每次做播客都会有点害怕,当然,如果我要聊的是,比如我正在建立某种关系,或者我在探索某个——我是说,我可以

整天聊大脑里的神经回路,一点都不怕,那是我的专业领域。但任何新的东西,任何真正属于探索、属于我自身状态演变的东西,当然会唤起恐惧。但我也知道,成长就在那里。我可不希望这档播客到今天还跟第一集时一个样子。而且,很明显,这次对话是一个我在这档播客里从未尝试过的新方向,但我很高兴它发生了,我想说明这一点。而且我认为,对未知抱有某种程度的恐惧和焦虑是绝对必要的,我觉得这是任何人——尤其是正在收听的年轻人——都需要知道的:你一开始本来就不该表现得好,不管做什么事都一样,你不可能一上来就做好。这就是为什么荣格说,愚者是救赎者的前身。你必须自愿接受愚者这个角色,然后才能进步。当然,当你开始一件新事物时,你注定是个傻瓜——你懂什么呢?所以这就是

精彩。我不想剧透太多,但它不是那种事先安排好的,我是说没有讲稿或者什么的,它非常开放,但是真正的——那是一场探索,一场思想上的求索,对,那是一次真实的体验。而且男士们记得穿西装打领带,因为在场其他人至少都会穿件外套,看起来体面一些。所以我和我太太的巡讲从一月一直到六月,其中很大一部分在美国,然后有两个月在欧洲,那很棒因为欧洲正处在麻烦当中,能去那里演讲是一种特权和荣幸,所以这非常非常令人兴奋。大家可以在 jordanbpeterson.com 上了解更多巡讲信息,日期之类的都列在那里。嗯,我们还创办了 Peterson Academy,我们希望你去那里授课,而且进展非常顺利。我们有一个地方让人们可以听某个领域的讲座。对对对,我们已经有 35 门课程上线了,每一门都分成 6 到 8 小时的系列,我会说这把相当于一整门大学课程的内容压缩进了那段

compacts I would say the equivalent of a full University course into that span of time we're pursuing accreditation which I think is a high probability in the relatively not too distant future so that's ridiculously exciting because we can take the best lectures in the world and we can make them available to everyone and we built a social media element into it we took the best of the social media networks and people are using it like mad and it's 100% positive it's philosophically oriented it's mutually encouraging we threw four people off the platform out of 40,000 well three cuz we put one guy on probation cuz he said he'd improve and we established a positive culture there's no Bots there's no trolls no one's playing games and we watch and now you know the community has settled into a it's got an ethos already and I think that'll be self- sustaining so people are there to learn and to support each other learning got it it it launched out of the gate better than we thought it would even though we were optimistic and
时间。我们正在申请认证,我认为在不算太遥远的将来这有很大可能实现,所以这非常令人兴奋,因为我们可以把世界上最好的讲座拿来,让所有人都能接触到。而且我们在里面内置了一个社交媒体的元素,我们吸取了各家社交网络的长处,人们用得不亦乐乎,而且是百分之百正面的。它以哲学为导向,是相互鼓励的。四万人里我们只把四个人踢出了平台嗯,其实是三个,因为有一个人我们给了察看期,他说他会改进。我们建立了一种积极的文化,那里没有机器人,没有喷子,没有人在耍花招,我们一直在观察。现在你知道,这个社区已经沉淀出了——它已经有了自己的风气,我认为那会是可以自我维持的。所以人们到那里是为了学习,也为了支持彼此学习。明白了。它上线于一开局就比我们预想的要好,尽管我们本来就挺乐观的,而且我得说,我们提供的内容质量确实超出了

超出了我的预期。嗯,我们给迈克尔·马利斯看过,迈克尔·马利斯给我们做了一门关于极权主义的课程,考虑到他的家庭背景,他对这个话题的感受相当个人化,他说那个预告片让他落泪了,而这就是我的——不过我这人挺容易哭的,所以我不知道自己是不是最好的评判标准,像是在某些话题上,我今年在这个播客上就哭过好几次,还有别的场合,所以那是一种我从没预料到的脆弱时刻,不过,知道不只我一个人这样也挺好的。不只你一个,我现在身体更健康了,反而没那么容易被触动了但我对我们做出来的东西也有同样的感受,因为如果你是一位教授,你希望能有最好的课程提供给大家,然后你看到这些课,你会觉得:目标达成。而且这简直是不可思议地很有意思,而且我跟我太太还有孩子们的关系都非常好。你现在也有孙辈了吧?是的,还有两个马上要出生了。

恭喜啊。你知道,我面前还有无穷无尽的、精彩绝伦的机会,所以希望我有足够的悟性去珍惜这一切。希望如此。我确实珍惜,我也知道这很难得。这离在YouTube上发讲座已经走了很远了,大多数人最初就是在那儿发现你的,如果他们当时在关注的话。我当然也是那样知道你的。我当时想,这个人谈的都是心理学领域里特别有意思的东西,他知道雅克·潘克塞普是谁,而且他还在YouTube上发视频。我能问问是什么促使你这么做的吗?是出于自觉,是使命的召唤,还是出于良知,或者兼而有之?嗯,大概主要是一种召唤吧,因为最根本的动机是——我想这也是我最根本的动机——好奇心,你知道吗,我看了看YouTube,心想:搞什么,这个'全球随选视频'是什么意思?它意味着口头说出的话现在和写下来的文字一样永久保存,而且传播起来更容易。我心想,哦,这可是一场了不起、能改变世界的

Revolution that's what it looks like to me this was like in 2010 you know when it was mostly cat videos I thought might as well put my videos up there and see what happens and so see what happens right that's an adventure and so I did that [Music] for maybe maybe seven years somewhere between five and seven years before things exploded around me and that was also extremely helpful because when I opposed the Trudeau government's attempt to compel my speech in the form of Bill c16 I was immediately pillared as a you know right-wing Nazi even though I'd spent my whole career publicizing the horrors of the Nazi Administration and teaching my students how not to fall prey to totalitarian Temptation like that was the core of my career um I had like 200 hours of lectures up on you already so when all that negative attention was drawn to me people started looking at the lectures and the huge Advantage there was that there wasn't a single really there wasn't a single important word I'd said to students in the last 20 years that
革命。在我看来就是这样。那大概是2010年,那时候YouTube上大多还是猫咪视频。我心想,不如把我的视频也放上去看看会发生什么。看看会发生什么,对吧,这就是一场冒险。于是我就这么做了 [音乐] 大概有七年吧,大概是五到七年之间,然后周围的一切就爆炸了。而那件事也帮了大忙,因为当我反对特鲁多政府试图以C-16法案的形式强制规定我的言论时,我立刻就被钉在耻辱柱上,被说成是右翼纳粹——尽管我整个职业生涯都在向公众揭露纳粹政权的恐怖,并教导我的学生如何不落入极权主义的诱惑。那可是我职业生涯的核心啊。我当时已经有大约200小时的讲座放在网上了,所以当所有那些负面关注涌向我的时候,人们开始去看那些讲座。这里头巨大的优势在于,我在过去20年里对学生说过的每一个重要的字,没有一个是没有被录下来的。而那些认定我是个卑劣之徒的人,

有充分的机会用放大镜把我说过的每一句话都过一遍——你完全可以肯定他们真的这么干了——但他们找不出我说过的任何一句话,能够哪怕一丁点儿支持他们的指控。所以从某种意义上说,那是取消文化的一个转折点。因为当时有非常强势的取消我的企图,于是人们跑去查我,然后他们想,嗯,他说的话没有一句和他被指控的东西对得上。所以你会怎么说呢,那算是堤坝开始决口的一部分吧。关于传统媒体的腐败问题。所以我被指控的不仅是谎言,而且恰恰是事实的反面,这是最深层次的谎言。所以 YouTube 在那件事上帮了我大忙。你确实挺过来了,呃,我们大家到现在——嗯,我想这正好说到我想讲的,就是我想感谢你把那些视频发到 YouTube 上,感谢你踏上那段旅程,因为那确实是一段漫长

视频总结 · 一句话概括与核心要点

一句话概括

彼得森与休伯曼用神经科学(下丘脑、前额叶、多巴胺)重述宗教心理学:底层动机不是"冲动"而是成套的"亚人格",成熟不是抑制它们而是把它们整合进一个朝向最高目标的超序人格——而"目标 = 冒险 = 责任 = 真理"这条等式,正是从成瘾、色情、科学腐败到社会衰败的统一解释框架与解药。

核心要点

  • "冲动"是错误的建模,动机状态其实是带知觉、情绪和辩解话术的小型人格。 行为主义用链式反射解释一切走得很远,但解释不到人类最高层活动。证据是动机改变的是知觉而非只是行为:刺激下丘脑腹内侧核的小鼠只在有同类或有充气手套时攻击,独处时不会攻击笼壁——说明被激活的是"把某物归类为可击败之敌"的知觉框架,这是策略不是反射。成瘾的"撒谎"同理,谎言是那个亚人格为自身病态行为编的合理化。
  • 社会化的正确模型是"整合"而非"抑制",弗洛伊德的超我模型不如皮亚杰。 彼得森用儿子罚坐台阶举例:目标不是让他停止攻击性,而是把攻击性置于更高目标之下——结果他成了优秀运动员。团队运动员在场上不是不攻击也不是压抑攻击,而是让攻击服从于更高阶目标。人类需要约 18–25 年社会化窗口,说明生物默认设置不足以导航未来。
  • 多神教到一神教的演变对应个体的心理成熟过程。 埃利亚德(《神圣与世俗》)记录了全球范围内多神→一神的转变模式。多神即各动机系统各自为政:战神玛尔斯即"愤怒"回路;维京人服用毒蝇伞(毒蕈碱型乙酰胆碱受体,非典型致幻剂)把愤怒人格调成超序、屏蔽痛觉。两岁小孩的状态就是默认的多神教。
  • 反社会行为的早期分布数据极不均匀,且窗口极短。 特朗布莱实验室的结论:把两岁儿童放一起是所有年龄段中最具攻击性的,而"踢、抢、打、咬"这类早发反社会行为几乎全部出现在男孩身上,且只占约 5%。其中绝大多数在四岁前完成社会化;未完成的那批因无朋友而被疏离,成为少年犯、早发罪犯、惯犯。彼得森补充:精神病态可理解为"不成熟延续到成年",其标志是无法从经验中学习——即背叛自己的未来自我,机制与背叛他人完全相同。
  • 超常刺激(supernormal stimulus)是理解色情、加工食品、毒品的共同钥匙。 三刺鱼腹部红点会激怒同类,而比自然界更大更亮的红点产生几乎不可抗拒的反应——最大激活来自自然界中不存在的刺激。色情正是如此:任何 13 岁男孩一天内能看到的超常刺激女性,多于一百年前最成功的男人一生所见。加上零成本可得、加上多巴胺对新奇的额外加成,使用模式必然向更极端、更恋物化滑坡以维持新奇边际。
  • 加工食品劫持的是两条独立的饱足通路。 口腔只能学"味道—热量"关联,肠道才知道营养素含量:肠神经元感知糖、脂肪酸、氨基酸,经迷走神经via结状神经节上行至多巴胺中枢。因为不存在"必需碳水"(只有必需氨基酸和必需脂肪酸),吃进低必需营养素的食物会让觅食系统持续运转直到摄够——这就是空热量的机制。休伯曼的实测例子:吃完牛排已达饱足,一口面食(血糖升高直连多巴胺系统)立刻重启食欲。
  • 弗里斯顿的熵解释给了情绪一个物理学基础。 彼得森与学生的结论是焦虑标志熵的涌现;弗里斯顿补上正向的一半:向目标推进一步就减少了追求过程的不确定性,因而获得多巴胺奖赏——这解释了"看见终点线就跑得更快"。推论极重要:目标越有价值,单位进展的多巴胺回报越高,所以应让一个终极目标运行于每个近端子目标之中。
  • 亚伯拉罕的故事被读成一份关于"冒险"的生物学契约。 亚伯拉罕生于富足、父母供养,直到 75 岁才被"召唤之声"叫离舒适区。神给出四重回报:生命成为你自己的祝福、因此获得(男性极看重、与繁殖成功高度相关的)声望、建立跨世代持久之物(成为万国之父)、并给共同体带来丰饶。彼得森的论证是反证式的:要么不存在冒险的内驱力(极不可能),要么这内驱力与心理社会福祉不一致——若如此我们根本不会是社会性动物。
  • "责任 = 冒险"是保守派也没搞懂的那一环。 保守派把责任说成尽责的、有序的生产力;但邦德电影之所以抓人,恰恰是因为赌注高、要承担风险与牺牲。可操作化的入口极低:整理房间、每天十分钟收拾车库、耙自家草坪(休伯曼引安娜·蓝波的说法)。理由是过程是指数的——即便从零开始,只要持续翻倍就会比预想更快抵达;反向也成立,一位遗传学家同事说进化一个物种要很多代,退化只要很少几代。
  • 科学本身必须嵌在故事里,否则会退化。 做真科学要求把"发现自己错了"置于"证明自己对了"之前,这在短期内损害职业生涯,所以科学被职业主义腐蚀是可预期的默认状态——彼得森认为它真正运作的窗口大约只有 1550–1980 年,只发生过一次。休伯曼给出现实佐证:某子领域 95% 的人做相似问题、互相授奖、互相评审、互相拨款,而阿尔茨海默症领域伪造数据的事让整个方向空转约 15 年,且有人知情。价值中立本身不构成防护——追求埃博拉与天花杂交并气溶胶化,"纯科学上"与任何其他分支无异。
  • 色情的核心毒性在于把不确定性降为零,也就取消了学习。 现实关系的结构是被拒绝、被修正、不兼容、进展不明——被拒绝恰恰是女性提供给你的纠错信号。逃离拒绝换来的不是解脱,而是没有改进、没有远距效应(action at a distance)。休伯曼把这条串成全篇主线:人类建立在投掷平台上,"罪"(希伯来语、希腊语 hamartia)的字面义都是"射失目标";从火箭到生育到传播知识都是远距行动,而色情—自慰把全部多巴胺驱力回环到自身,无处可去。
  • "玩"是暴政的对立面,这是潘克塞普的贡献。 潘克塞普证明动物若处于任何其他动机状态下就不会出现玩耍——玩耍需要条件先被小心安排好。更大的发现是:功能正常的等级秩序常常通过玩耍而非武力形成(老鼠、黑猩猩、儿童皆然),这直接反驳福柯的权力叙事。彼得森引佩利亚的话:若学界当年转向诺伊曼而非福柯,过去五十年的知识史会完全不同;权力不构成心理整合或社会统一的稳定基础。

结论与值得注意的细节

实践处方被压缩成两个问题:"我身边有什么是我能修好、且我愿意修的?"(召唤)和"我身上有什么让我自己困扰?"(良心)。彼得森把召唤与良心分别对应整合后的正向情绪与负向情绪之声,并称以利亚是人类史上第一个把神性等同于良心("微小的声音")的人,视之为一次未被表彰的心理学革命。

《登山宝训》被读成一套元目标策略,三步:先把目光举向最高处(设定这一"episode"的知觉框架)→ 假定他人同样分有那个终极目标并如此待之 → 全神贯注于当下。彼得森指出其中的"反常最优性":正因为你瞄准的是最长时间尺度和最高处,你才能最大限度地利用眼前之物。恐惧的对应版本是暴露疗法与屠龙神话——重要的不是解决某个具体恐惧,而是采取"自愿趋近"这个元策略,它不让人更不怕,而让人更有能力、更勇敢,并且会泛化。

几处具体数据与引用:日本与韩国 30 岁以下人群约 30% 为处女、生育率远低于更替水平;西方约 50% 女性 30 岁时无子女,其中约四分之一将非自愿无子女;彼得森称这是《启示录》中"猩红兽与巴比伦大淫妇"的现实对应——兽最终杀死淫妇,即无牺牲的性满足最终毁灭性本身。休伯曼贡献的神经解剖细节:人类额叶眼动区(frontal eye fields)相比其他物种大幅扩张,使注视从反射变为语境依赖的自愿行为;去皮层的猫或猫头鹰会变成"点哪儿看哪儿"的机器;一只只剩下丘脑的猫仍能在受控环境中表现得几乎正常且超常探索。

Peterson 的推荐书单:埃利亚德《神圣与世俗》(入门)、埃里希·诺伊曼《意识的起源与历史》(更难)、埃伦伯格《发现无意识》(他称之为分析弗洛伊德/荣格/阿德勒的最佳著作,并把无意识概念上溯到弗洛伊德之前 350 年);休伯曼推荐《被讨厌的勇气》(阿德勒心理学)。两人都认为潘克塞普的《情感神经科学》是目前最接近"脑—心智—心理学"综合著作的东西,并当场提议合写一本。彼得森自陈终身有抑郁倾向、早晨最难,靠洗澡、铺床、做点有用的事起步;两年前那场身体状况留下的疼痛仍在。

Peterson 反复提到自己对民主党的公开邀请(约八年前起,与 Rogan、Rubin、Shapiro 等一同发出)始终无人接受,并强调他希望存在一个有力的反对党——因为无人制衡的执政必然出问题,这一点对共和党人自身同样成立。

核心句型 · 10
1. it's much better to think of X as Y
“It's much better to think of those lower order motivational States as personalities”
提出更好的概念化方式时用的标准句式,比 "X is Y" 温和,留出争论空间。仿写:It's much better to think of failure as data rather than as a verdict.
2. it wasn't like … it's that …
“It wasn't like he stopped being assertive or even aggressive it's that he learned how to put that aggression in its proper place”
先否定一个容易被误会的解读,再给出真正的解释。适合纠正对方的误读,语气不对抗。
3. the more … the less …
“The more alert we are the less we are able to take ourselves into Notions of this two shall pass”
比较级并列表达此消彼长的关系,两个分句都不用 that。仿写:The more urgent it feels, the less carefully we choose.
4. there's no difference between A and B
“There's no difference between responsibility and Adventure they're the same thing”
把两个看似相反的概念强行等同,是本场最常用的论证动作。用于抛出反直觉论点,后面通常紧跟解释。
5. what that means is that …
“What that means is that they are so non communitarian that they're willing to even betray their own future selves”
把刚说完的事实翻译成含义,口语讲解中承上启下的黏合剂。可与 what that implies is 换用。
6. in so far as …, you are …
“In so far as you encourage that you are a good father”
in so far as 给出「在某个限度内成立」的条件式论断,比 if 更精确,学术写作高频。
7. it's not surprising that … unless there was …
“It's not at all surprising that people would subvert an Enterprise that difficult to the narrow demands of career enhancement it's exactly what you'd expect unless there was a stunningly powerful counterveiling force”
先把坏结果说成默认预期,再用 unless 引出唯一的例外条件。写批评性分析时特别有力。
8. well why wouldn't …?
“Well why wouldn't they be Gods”
反问句用来把举证责任推给对方:不是我要证明,而是你得说明为什么不。口语与辩论中都很好用。
9. that's exactly what you'd expect
“That's exactly what you'd expect that's the historical Norm”
用于把一个看似意外的现象归入常态,常紧接在归因之后收尾。
10. X is the antithesis of Y
“Play is the antithesis of tyranny seems to be a pretty good summation”
用 antithesis 断言彻底对立,比 opposite 更书面、更有分量。适合概括性论断的收束句。
