Chaos and Order
Even in a sleepy daze, I was struck by Jordan Peterson’s ability to unpack complex topics—not as a formal lecture, but as an intellectual journey.
As I spent those early months sleeping and listening to him, I slowly began to understand why he has become the most sought-after psychologist speaker in the world—and why he’s often called “the most influential public intellectual in the Western world.”
He’s undeniably gone viral—not just in the relatively easy realm of cyberspace, but also in the more enduring worlds of print and television.
I don’t agree with everything he says, but he doesn’t expect everyone to agree with him, Instead, he invites his audience to engage with him—asking questions, offering counterarguments, and participating in the learning process. I came to admire his panelists and guest speakers often so similar to him. They weren’t intimidated by him but interacted with curiosity, often challenging him gently and insightfully.
He became the perfect sleeping pill—his beautiful string of words filling the empty spaces in my mind. I found myself falling asleep to a new kind of melody.
Then he began to speak of chaos —and that’s when the fog lifted.
The subconscious is ceaselessly murmuring, and it is by listening to these murmurs that one hears the truth. - —Gaston Bachelard
