  we

• 0:24
  started
• 0:25
  today,
• 0:25
  we

  conversation.
• 0:37
  So
• 0:38
  would
• 0:39
  you
• 0:39
  talk
• 0:39
  a
• 0:39
  little
• 0:39
  bit
• 0:39
  about
• 0:39
  that?
• 0:41
  Yeah.
• 0:41
  Well,
• 0:42
  philosophy
• 0:43
  is
• 0:43
  public.
• 0:44
  Philosophy
• 0:45
  has
• 0:45
  always
• 0:45
  been
• 0:45
  public.
• 0:46
  Philosophy
• 0:46
  has
• 0:46
  always
• 0:46
  been
• 0:47
  for
• 0:47
  the
• 0:47
  people.
• 0:48
  You
• 0:48
  take
• 0:49
  it
• 0:49
  from
• 0:49
  Eastern
• 0:49
  tradition
• 0:50
  or
• 0:50
  Western.
• 0:51
  Socrates
• 0:52
  went
• 0:52
  to
• 0:52
  the
• 0:53
  lyceum.
• 0:53
  He
• 0:54
  was
• 0:54
  in
• 0:54
  public
• 0:55
  convincing
• 0:56
  people
• 0:56
  that
• 0:57
  virtue
• 0:57
  and
• 0:57
  wisdom
• 0:58
  were
• 0:58
  the
• 0:58
  best
• 0:58
  for
• 0:59
  everyone,
• 0:59
  that
• 1:00
  it
• 1:00
  would
• 1:00
  help
• 1:01
  the
• 1:01
  entire
• 1:01
  culture,
• 1:02
  the
• 1:02
  entire
• 1:02
  society.
• 1:03
  On
• 1:04
  the
• 1:04
  other
• 1:04
  hand,
• 1:04
  in
• 1:04
  the
• 1:05
  East,
• 1:05
  Confucius
• 1:06
  figured
• 1:06
  out
• 1:06
  and
• 1:06
  decided
• 1:07
  that
• 1:07
  he
• 1:07
  wanted
• 1:07
  to
• 1:09
  teach
• 1:09
  anyone
• 1:10
  that
• 1:10
  could
• 1:10
  attend.
• 1:11
  He
• 1:11
  taught
• 1:11
  anyone
• 1:11
  who
• 1:12
  could
• 1:12
  attend.
• 1:13
  Descartes
• 1:14
  published
• 1:14
  his
• 1:14
  work
• 1:15
  in
• 1:15
  French
• 1:16
  instead
• 1:16
  of
• 1:16
  Latin.
• 1:17
  Lao
• 1:18
  Tzu
• 1:18
  left
• 1:18
  some
• 1:19
  words
• 1:19
  with
• 1:19
  the
• 1:19
  gatekeeper
• 1:20
  as
• 1:20
  before
• 1:21
  he
• 1:21
  retired.
• 1:22
  Buddha
• 1:22
  came
• 1:22
  back
• 1:23
  from
• 1:23
  nirvana
• 1:23
  and
• 1:24
  wanted
• 1:24
  to
• 1:24
  teach.
• 1:24
  So
• 1:25
  philosophy
• 1:25
  has
• 1:25
  always
• 1:26
  been
• 1:26
  about
• 1:27
  the
• 1:27
  people.
• 1:27
  Philosophy
• 1:28
  has
• 1:28
  always
• 1:28
  been
• 1:28
  public.
• 1:29
  The
• 1:29
  best
• 1:29
  philosophy
• 1:29
  is
• 1:30
  always
• 1:30
  about
• 1:31
  having
• 1:31
  a
• 1:31
  conversation,
• 1:32
  learning
• 1:33
  from
• 1:33
  each
• 1:33
  other,
• 1:34
  seeking
• 1:35
  wisdom,
• 1:36
  practicing
• 1:36
  virtue
• 1:37
  in
• 1:37
  daily
• 1:37
  life.
• 1:38
  That's
• 1:38
  why
• 1:38
  we're
• 1:39
  here
• 1:39
  at
• 1:39
  the
• 1:39
  Living.
• 1:39
  Conversation
• 1:41
  and
• 1:41
  turning
• 1:41
  over
• 1:42
  ideas,
• 1:42
  you
• 1:43
  know,
• 1:43
  and
• 1:44
  one
• 1:44
  of
• 1:44
  the
• 1:44
  things
• 1:44
  that
• 1:45
  I
• 1:45
  had
• 1:45
  done
• 1:46
  as
• 1:46
  a,
• 1:46
  as
• 1:46
  a
• 1:46
  talk,
• 1:47
  the
• 1:47
  courage
• 1:48
  to
• 1:48
  transform
• 1:48
  knowledge
• 1:49
  into
• 1:49
  wisdom.
• 1:50
  So
• 1:51
  because
• 1:51
  philo
• 1:52
  is
• 1:52
  love,
• 1:53
  but
• 1:54
  ology
• 1:55
  is.
• 1:56
  Ology
• 1:57
  is
• 1:57
  study,
• 1:57
  but
• 1:58
  philo
• 1:58
  is
• 1:58
  wisdom
• 1:59
  or
• 1:59
  knowledge.
• 2:00
  And
• 2:00
  that
• 2:01
  actually,
• 2:01
  in
• 2:01
  my
• 2:02
  looking
• 2:02
  at
• 2:02
  it
• 2:02
  speaks
• 2:03
  to
• 2:03
  both
• 2:03
  sides
• 2:03
  of
• 2:04
  the
• 2:04
  brain.
• 2:04
  Wisdom
• 2:05
  is
• 2:05
  the
• 2:05
  right
• 2:05
  brain
• 2:05
  and
• 2:06
  knowledge
• 2:06
  is
• 2:06
  the
• 2:06
  left
• 2:07
  brain.
• 2:08
  But
• 2:08
  yeah,
• 2:09
  Sophie,
• 2:10
  Sophia's
• 2:10
  wisdom.
• 2:10
  Yeah,
• 2:11
  Sophia's
• 2:11
  wisdom.
• 2:12
  Right.
• 2:13
  So
• 2:13
  anyway,
• 2:14
  I
• 2:14
  wanted
• 2:14
  to
• 2:16
  just
• 2:16
  talk
• 2:17
  a
• 2:17
  little
• 2:17
  bit
• 2:17
  about
• 2:18
  what's
• 2:18
  been
• 2:18
  going
• 2:19
  on
• 2:19
  for
• 2:19
  me
• 2:19
  this
• 2:19
  week.
• 2:22
  I've
• 2:23
  been
• 2:23
  getting
• 2:23
  a
• 2:23
  number
• 2:24
  of
• 2:24
  scam
• 2:24
  calls,
• 2:27
  but
• 2:29
  I
• 2:30
  think
• 2:30
  it's
• 2:30
  really
• 2:30
  important
• 2:32
  for
• 2:33
  people
• 2:33
  to
• 2:33
  be
• 2:33
  able
• 2:33
  to
• 2:34
  distinguish
• 2:35
  that
• 2:35
  and
• 2:35
  older
• 2:36
  adults
• 2:36
  like
• 2:36
  myself,
• 2:37
  because
• 2:38
  I
• 2:38
  also
• 2:38
  got
• 2:38
  a
• 2:38
  call
• 2:39
  the
• 2:39
  other
• 2:39
  day
• 2:40
  which
• 2:40
  is
• 2:40
  called
• 2:41
  the
• 2:41
  grandpa
• 2:41
  scam.
• 2:43
  And
• 2:43
  somebody
• 2:43
  called
• 2:43
  me
• 2:44
  up
• 2:44
  and
• 2:44
  said,
• 2:44
  grandpa.
• 2:45
  And
• 2:45
  I
• 2:45
  said,
• 2:46
  who
• 2:46
  is
• 2:46
  this?
• 2:47
  And
• 2:47
  they
• 2:48
  said,
• 2:48
  oh,
• 2:48
  it's
• 2:48
  your
• 2:48
  eldest.
• 2:49
  And
• 2:49
  it
• 2:49
  was
• 2:49
  a
• 2:49
  guy.
• 2:49
  And
• 2:50
  they
• 2:50
  don't
• 2:50
  know
• 2:51
  that
• 2:51
  my
• 2:52
  eldest
• 2:53
  is
• 2:53
  a,
• 2:53
  is
• 2:54
  a
• 2:54
  woman.
• 2:55
  So.
• 2:57
  But
• 2:57
  it's
• 2:57
  this
• 2:57
  idea
• 2:58
  of
• 2:58
  people
• 2:58
  taking
• 2:59
  advantage
• 2:59
  of
• 3:02
  posing
• 3:03
  as
• 3:04
  who
• 3:04
  they
• 3:05
  aren't.
• 3:05
  And
• 3:06
  I
• 3:06
  think
• 3:06
  it's.
• 3:06
  And
• 3:07
  I
• 3:07
  even
• 3:07
  this
• 3:07
  morning
• 3:07
  got
• 3:08
  a,
• 3:09
  an
• 3:09
  email
• 3:10
  said,
• 3:10
  fix
• 3:10
  this
• 3:11
  error
• 3:11
  immediately.
• 3:12
  You
• 3:13
  know,
• 3:13
  so
• 3:13
  it's
• 3:13
  trying
• 3:13
  to
• 3:13
  hustle
• 3:14
  you
• 3:14
  into
• 3:18
  acting
• 3:19
  without
• 3:20
  thinking
• 3:20
  things
• 3:21
  through.
• 3:21
  And
• 3:22
  that's
• 3:22
  one
• 3:22
  of
• 3:22
  the
• 3:22
  things
• 3:22
  that
• 3:23
  I
• 3:23
  think
• 3:23
  is
• 3:23
  really
• 3:23
  important
• 3:25
  to
• 3:25
  go
• 3:25
  into
• 3:26
  with
• 3:26
  regard
• 3:27
  to
• 3:29
  critical
• 3:30
  thinking.
• 3:31
  And
• 3:31
  I
• 3:31
  just
• 3:31
  wanted
• 3:32
  to
• 3:32
  share
• 3:32
  my
• 3:32
  screen
• 3:33
  Here
• 3:34
  quickly
• 3:34
  with
• 3:35
  my
• 3:41
  spotting
• 3:42
  manipulative
• 3:42
  techniques
• 3:43
  and
• 3:43
  argument.
• 3:45
  And
• 3:48
  the
• 3:48
  first
• 3:50
  six
• 3:51
  or
• 3:51
  seven
• 3:51
  of
• 3:51
  them
• 3:52
  are
• 3:52
  from
• 3:52
  Cialdini.
• 3:54
  Authority,
• 3:54
  liking,
• 3:55
  commitment
• 3:55
  and
• 3:55
  consistency,
• 3:56
  Scarcity,
• 3:57
  reciprocation,
• 3:57
  social
• 3:58
  proof
• 4:00
  and
• 4:00
  belonging.
• 4:01
  And
• 4:01
  this
• 4:01
  is
• 4:02
  from
• 4:02
  a
• 4:02
  guy
• 4:02
  named
• 4:02
  Robert
• 4:03
  Cialdini
• 4:03
  who
• 4:06
  studied
• 4:08
  what
• 4:08
  was
• 4:08
  going
• 4:09
  on
• 4:09
  in
• 4:09
  the
• 4:09
  Jonestown
• 4:10
  commune.
• 4:12
  And
• 4:13
  do
• 4:13
  you
• 4:13
  remember
• 4:14
  that?
• 4:14
  The
• 4:14
  Jonestown
• 4:15
  commune?
• 4:16
  Yeah,
• 4:17
  I've,
• 4:17
  I've
• 4:17
  heard
• 4:17
  of
• 4:17
  that
• 4:17
  for
• 4:17
  sure.
• 4:18
  And
• 4:18
  just,
• 4:18
  just
• 4:19
  for
• 4:19
  our
• 4:19
  listeners
• 4:19
  who
• 4:19
  don't
• 4:20
  have
• 4:20
  a
• 4:20
  visual,
• 4:20
  we're
• 4:20
  looking
• 4:21
  at
• 4:21
  something
• 4:21
  called
• 4:22
  Clini
• 4:24
  patterns
• 4:24
  and
• 4:24
  manipulation
• 4:25
  Patterns.
• 4:26
  Yeah,
• 4:26
  yeah.
• 4:27
  But
• 4:27
  anyway,
• 4:28
  this
• 4:28
  was
• 4:29
  where
• 4:29
  the,
• 4:29
  the
• 4:29
  idea
• 4:30
  of
• 4:30
  to
• 4:31
  drink
• 4:31
  the
• 4:31
  Kool
• 4:31
  Aid
• 4:33
  because
• 4:33
  Jim
• 4:33
  Jones
• 4:34
  was
• 4:34
  a
• 4:34
  cult
• 4:35
  leader
• 4:35
  and
• 4:36
  when
• 4:36
  he
• 4:36
  started
• 4:36
  to
• 4:37
  get
• 4:37
  held
• 4:38
  accountable,
• 4:39
  he
• 4:39
  got
• 4:39
  real
• 4:40
  paranoid
• 4:40
  and
• 4:40
  he
• 4:40
  got
• 4:41
  800
• 4:41
  people
• 4:41
  to
• 4:41
  drink
• 4:42
  the
• 4:42
  Kool
• 4:42
  Aid.
• 4:43
  But
• 4:43
  part
• 4:44
  of
• 4:44
  his
• 4:45
  method
• 4:46
  for
• 4:46
  doing
• 4:46
  this
• 4:46
  and
• 4:46
  this,
• 4:47
  you
• 4:47
  can
• 4:47
  find
• 4:47
  this
• 4:47
  on
• 4:47
  my
• 4:48
  website
• 4:49
  in
• 4:50
  the
• 4:51
  course
• 4:51
  materials
• 4:52
  was
• 4:53
  through
• 4:53
  authority.
• 4:57
  People
• 4:57
  will
• 4:58
  tend
• 4:58
  to
• 4:59
  not
• 4:59
  critically
• 5:00
  think
• 5:00
  around
• 5:00
  authority.
• 5:01
  While
• 5:01
  I'm
• 5:01
  a
• 5:01
  police
• 5:01
  officer
• 5:02
  or
• 5:03
  I'm
• 5:03
  a
• 5:04
  professor
• 5:04
  or
• 5:06
  some
• 5:06
  other
• 5:07
  part
• 5:07
  of
• 5:07
  authority
• 5:08
  liking
• 5:08
  is,
• 5:09
  well,
• 5:10
  like
• 5:10
  you,
• 5:11
  you
• 5:11
  know,
• 5:11
  if
• 5:11
  you
• 5:12
  like
• 5:12
  somebody,
• 5:12
  you
• 5:12
  tend
• 5:13
  to
• 5:13
  be
• 5:13
  more
• 5:13
  amenable
• 5:13
  to
• 5:13
  them.
• 5:14
  Commitment
• 5:15
  and
• 5:15
  consistency.
• 5:17
  There's
• 5:18
  very
• 5:18
  quickly
• 5:19
  a
• 5:19
  story
• 5:19
  about
• 5:21
  when
• 5:21
  somebody
• 5:22
  comes
• 5:22
  to
• 5:22
  your
• 5:22
  house
• 5:22
  with
• 5:23
  a
• 5:23
  save
• 5:23

• 5:23
  whale
• 5:23
  stamp
• 5:24
  to
• 5:24
  put
• 5:24
  in
• 5:24
  the
• 5:24
  upper
• 5:25
  corner
• 5:25
  of
• 5:25
  your
• 5:26
  window
• 5:26
  and
• 5:27
  you
• 5:27
  say,
• 5:27
  okay.
• 5:28
  And
• 5:28
  then
• 5:28
  they
• 5:28
  come
• 5:28
  by
• 5:28
  a
• 5:29
  week
• 5:29
  later
• 5:29
  and
• 5:29
  they
• 5:29
  say,
• 5:29
  oh,
• 5:29
  you
• 5:30
  got
• 5:30
  a
• 5:30
  whale
• 5:30
  stamp
• 5:31
  in
• 5:31
  your
• 5:31
  window.
• 5:31
  Can
• 5:31
  we
• 5:31
  put
• 5:32
  a
• 5:32
  placard
• 5:32
  on
• 5:32
  your,
• 5:32
  in
• 5:33
  your
• 5:33
  front
• 5:33
  window?
• 5:33
  And
• 5:34
  then
• 5:34
  they
• 5:34
  come
• 5:34
  back
• 5:34
  a
• 5:35
  week
• 5:35
  later.
• 5:35
  Oh,
• 5:35
  we
• 5:35
  could
• 5:35
  put
• 5:35
  a
• 5:36
  lawn
• 5:36
  sign
• 5:36
  up.
• 5:37
  Right.
• 5:38
  So
• 5:39
  it's
• 5:39
  known
• 5:39
  also
• 5:40
  as
• 5:40
  the
• 5:40
  camel's
• 5:40
  nose.
• 5:41
  Under
• 5:41
  the
• 5:41
  tent
• 5:41
  there's
• 5:42
  the
• 5:42
  idea
• 5:42
  of
• 5:42
  scarcity.
• 5:43
  So
• 5:44
  call
• 5:44
  before
• 5:44
  midnight
• 5:45
  tonight.
• 5:46
  Reciprocation
• 5:47
  is
• 5:47
  about.
• 5:48
  Do
• 5:49
  you
• 5:49
  remember
• 5:49
  the
• 5:50
  Hare
• 5:50
  Krista's
• 5:51
  from
• 5:52
  the
• 5:52
  60s?
• 5:52
  They
• 5:52
  would
• 5:53
  hand
• 5:53
  out
• 5:53
  flowers.
• 5:54
  You
• 5:54
  know,
• 5:56
  social
• 5:56
  proof
• 5:57
  is,
• 5:57
  well,
• 5:58
  everyone
• 5:58
  else
• 5:58
  is
• 5:58
  doing
• 5:58
  it.
• 5:59
  And
• 5:59
  then
• 6:00
  belonging
• 6:00
  is.
• 6:01
  If
• 6:01
  you
• 6:02
  want
• 6:02
  to
• 6:02
  belong,
• 6:03
  you
• 6:03
  have
• 6:03
  to
• 6:03
  accept
• 6:03
  this
• 6:04
  idea.
• 6:06
  But
• 6:07
  the
• 6:07
  other
• 6:07
  four
• 6:07
  points
• 6:08
  that
• 6:08
  I've
• 6:08
  looked
• 6:08
  at
• 6:09
  with
• 6:09
  cults
• 6:09
  are
• 6:09
  specialists.
• 6:10
  Isolation,
• 6:11
  secrecy
• 6:11
  and
• 6:11
  threats.
• 6:12
  Those
• 6:12
  of
• 6:13
  you
• 6:13
  who
• 6:13
  are
• 6:13
  listening
• 6:13
  to
• 6:13
  this
• 6:14
  blog
• 6:14
  are
• 6:14
  very
• 6:14
  special,
• 6:15
  but
• 6:16
  you
• 6:16
  need
• 6:16
  to
• 6:16
  listen
• 6:17
  to
• 6:17
  it
• 6:17
  alone.
• 6:18
  And
• 6:18
  it
• 6:18
  has
• 6:18
  to
• 6:19
  be
• 6:19
  kept
• 6:19
  secret
• 6:19
  because
• 6:20
  these
• 6:20
  are
• 6:20
  secret
• 6:20
  teachings.
• 6:21
  Because
• 6:21
  if
• 6:22
  you
• 6:22
  don't
• 6:22
  keep
• 6:23
  it
• 6:23
  secret,
• 6:24
  you
• 6:24
  know,
• 6:24
  and
• 6:25
  that's
• 6:25
  one
• 6:25
  of
• 6:25
  the,
• 6:26
  the
• 6:26
  red
• 6:26
  flags
• 6:26
  is
• 6:27
  when,
• 6:27
  when
• 6:27
  threats
• 6:27
  come
• 6:28
  around
• 6:28
  and
• 6:28
  we're
• 6:29
  not
• 6:29
  starting
• 6:29
  to
• 6:29
  notice
• 6:30
  that
• 6:31
  anyway.
• 6:31
  But
• 6:32
  do
• 6:32
  you
• 6:32
  have
• 6:33
  any
• 6:33
  thoughts
• 6:33
  about
• 6:34
  how
• 6:35
  the,
• 6:35
  how
• 6:35
  some
• 6:36
  of
• 6:36
  these
• 6:37
  show
• 6:37
  up
• 6:38
  in
• 6:39
  Asian
• 6:40
  philosophy,
• 6:40
  either
• 6:41
  Indian
• 6:41
  or
• 6:42
  Daoist?
• 6:43
  I
• 6:43
  think
• 6:44
  for
• 6:45
  my
• 6:46
  impression
• 6:46
  of
• 6:46
  Chinese
• 6:47
  philosophy
• 6:47
  is
• 6:47
  that
• 6:47
  we
• 6:48
  need
• 6:49
  to
• 6:49
  constantly
• 6:50
  cultivate
• 6:50
  ourselves.
• 6:52
  We
• 6:52
  cultivate
• 6:53
  ourselves,
• 6:53
  then
• 6:54
  we
• 6:54
  are
• 6:54
  in
• 6:55
  our
• 6:55
  right
• 6:55
  mind.
• 6:55
  We
• 6:56
  are,
• 6:57
  I
• 6:57
  want
• 6:57
  to
• 6:57
  say,
• 6:58
  almost
• 6:58
  stronger,
• 6:58
  but
• 6:59
  more
• 6:59
  loyal
• 6:59
  to
• 7:00
  our
• 7:00
  true
• 7:00
  self,
• 7:01
  more
• 7:01
  authentic,
• 7:03
  more.
• 7:03
  We
• 7:03
  have
• 7:04
  more
• 7:04
  time
• 7:04
  and
• 7:04
  space
• 7:04
  in
• 7:05
  our
• 7:05
  mind.
• 7:06
  We
• 7:06
  are
• 7:06
  able
• 7:06
  to
• 7:06
  think
• 7:06
  more
• 7:07
  clearly.
• 7:08
  So,
• 7:09
  so
• 7:09
  it's.
• 7:11
  Yeah,
• 7:11
  in
• 7:11
  that
• 7:12
  regard,
• 7:12
  we
• 7:12
  would
• 7:12
  be
• 7:13
  very
• 7:15
  free
• 7:15
  from.
• 7:16
  From
• 7:16
  these,
• 7:16
  these
• 7:17
  potential
• 7:18
  influences
• 7:20
  because
• 7:20
  we'd
• 7:20
  be
• 7:21
  taking
• 7:21
  the
• 7:21
  time,
• 7:21
  we'd
• 7:22
  have
• 7:22
  our
• 7:22
  mind
• 7:22
  or
• 7:22
  have
• 7:23
  our
• 7:23
  clarity.
• 7:23
  But
• 7:23
  also
• 7:23
  really
• 7:24
  important
• 7:24
  in
• 7:24
  Chinese
• 7:24
  philosophy
• 7:25
  is
• 7:25
  caution
• 7:27
  in
• 7:28
  Western
• 7:28
  culture,
• 7:28
  Western
• 7:29
  philosophy,
• 7:29
  we're
• 7:29
  always
• 7:30
  seeking
• 7:30
  the
• 7:30
  next
• 7:30
  new
• 7:31
  thing.
• 7:31
  We're
• 7:32
  always
• 7:32
  exploring,
• 7:33
  innovating.
• 7:34
  Traditional
• 7:35
  Chinese,
• 7:37
  traditional
• 7:37
  Chinese
• 7:38
  culture
• 7:38
  is
• 7:38
  your
• 7:39
  cautious.
• 7:39
  You
• 7:40
  protect
• 7:40
  yourself.
• 7:41
  So
• 7:41
  you
• 7:42
  don't
• 7:42
  go
• 7:42
  into
• 7:43
  these
• 7:43
  dangerous
• 7:44
  areas.
• 7:44
  You
• 7:45
  just
• 7:45
  stay
• 7:45
  peaceful.
• 7:46
  You
• 7:46
  just
• 7:47
  maintain
• 7:47
  your
• 7:47
  house,
• 7:48
  maintain
• 7:48
  yourself,
• 7:48
  maintain
• 7:49
  your
• 7:49
  home,
• 7:50
  keep
• 7:50
  harmony.
• 7:51
  You
• 7:51
  just
• 7:52
  focus
• 7:52
  on
• 7:52
  keeping
• 7:53
  your
• 7:53
  safety.
• 7:54
  Allow
• 7:54
  your
• 7:54
  mind
• 7:55
  to
• 7:55
  develop
• 7:55
  in
• 7:56
  its
• 7:56
  own
• 7:56
  area.
• 7:57
  Not
• 7:57
  getting
• 7:58
  overextended,
• 7:59
  not
• 8:00
  getting
• 8:00
  trapped.
• 8:01
  Not
• 8:01
  so.
• 8:02
  Oh,
• 8:02
  you
• 8:02
  always
• 8:02
  have
• 8:02
  a
• 8:03
  way
• 8:03
  of
• 8:03
  retreat
• 8:03
  as
• 8:04
  well.
• 8:04
  You
• 8:04
  have
• 8:04
  a.
• 8:04
  You
• 8:04
  have
• 8:05
  an
• 8:05
  out.
• 8:05
  You
• 8:05
  keep
• 8:05
  yourself
• 8:06
  with.
• 8:06
  You
• 8:07
  know,
• 8:07
  maybe
• 8:07
  if
• 8:07
  you
• 8:07
  go
• 8:07
  into
• 8:08
  a
• 8:08
  situation,
• 8:08
  you,
• 8:09
  you
• 8:09
  make
• 8:09
  sure
• 8:10
  it
• 8:10
  also
• 8:10
  comes
• 8:11
  up.
• 8:11
  This
• 8:11
  is
• 8:11
  like
• 8:11
  Taoist
• 8:12
  philosophy,
• 8:12
  Lao
• 8:12
  Tzu,
• 8:13
  but
• 8:13
  this
• 8:14
  is
• 8:14
  like
• 8:14
  sunset
• 8:15
  art
• 8:15
  of
• 8:15
  war.
• 8:15
  So
• 8:16
  if
• 8:16
  you
• 8:16
  go
• 8:16
  to
• 8:17
  a
• 8:17
  battle,
• 8:17
  you
• 8:17
  have.
• 8:18
  Give
• 8:18
  yourself
• 8:18
  a
• 8:18
  way
• 8:18
  out.
• 8:19
  All
• 8:19
  kinds
• 8:20
  of
• 8:20
  different
• 8:21
  methods
• 8:21
  and
• 8:21
  thoughts
• 8:22
  and
• 8:22
  strategies
• 8:23
  in
• 8:23
  Chinese
• 8:24
  culture,
• 8:24
  ancient
• 8:25
  Chinese
• 8:26
  philosophy,
• 8:27
  that
• 8:27
  you
• 8:27
  would
• 8:27
  be
• 8:28
  able
• 8:28
  to.
• 8:28
  One,
• 8:28
  keep
• 8:29
  your
• 8:29
  mind
• 8:29
  very
• 8:30
  cultivated
• 8:31
  so
• 8:32
  you
• 8:32
  can
• 8:32
  be
• 8:32
  aware
• 8:33
  in.
• 8:33
  You're
• 8:34
  in
• 8:34
  a
• 8:34
  good
• 8:34
  place
• 8:34
  mentally,
• 8:34
  you're
• 8:35
  not
• 8:35
  feeling
• 8:35
  desperate,
• 8:36
  like
• 8:36
  you
• 8:36
  want
• 8:36
  to
• 8:36
  fall
• 8:36
  for
• 8:36
  a
• 8:37
  scam.
• 8:37
  Your
• 8:37
  mind
• 8:37
  is
• 8:38
  very
• 8:38
  clear.
• 8:38
  But
• 8:38
  also
• 8:38
  you
• 8:39
  really
• 8:39
  emphasize
• 8:39
  safety.
• 8:40
  You
• 8:40
  just
• 8:40
  take
• 8:40
  care
• 8:40
  of
• 8:40
  yourself.
• 8:41
  You
• 8:41
  don't
• 8:41
  go
• 8:41
  into
• 8:42
  some
• 8:42
  dangerous
• 8:43
  area.
• 8:44
  Well,
• 8:44
  one
• 8:44
  of
• 8:44
  the
• 8:44
  things
• 8:45
  too
• 8:45
  is
• 8:46
  that
• 8:46
  people
• 8:46
  are
• 8:47
  always
• 8:48
  holding
• 8:48
  stuff
• 8:48
  out
• 8:49
  to
• 8:49
  you.
• 8:50
  Wouldn't
• 8:50
  you
• 8:50
  like
• 8:50
  some
• 8:51
  of
• 8:51
  this?
• 8:51
  You
• 8:51
  know,
• 8:53
  and
• 8:54
  I
• 8:54
  do
• 8:54
  occasionally
• 8:55
  find
• 8:55
  myself
• 8:56
  getting
• 8:56
  caught.
• 8:57
  But
• 8:57
  I
• 8:58
  want
• 8:58
  to
• 8:58
  offer,
• 8:58
  and
• 8:58
  I
• 8:58
  may
• 8:59
  have
• 8:59
  offered
• 8:59
  this
• 8:59
  before
• 9:00
  on
• 9:00
  this
• 9:00
  show
• 9:00
  is
• 9:01
  something
• 9:02
  that
• 9:02
  my
• 9:02
  downs.
• 9:02
  The
• 9:02
  wisest
• 9:03
  thing
• 9:03
  my
• 9:03
  down
• 9:03
  syndrome
• 9:04
  daughter
• 9:04
  ever
• 9:04
  said
• 9:04
  to
• 9:05
  me
• 9:05
  was
• 9:05
  when
• 9:05
  she
• 9:05
  made
• 9:05
  a
• 9:05
  mistake,
• 9:06
  she
• 9:06
  said,
• 9:07
  oh,
• 9:07
  silly
• 9:08
  me.
• 9:09
  And
• 9:09
  I
• 9:09
  find
• 9:10
  myself
• 9:10
  when
• 9:10
  I
• 9:11
  get

• 9:11
  I'm

  minute,

  silly

  stuff

  that

  has

• 9:27
  In

  Yeah,

  a

• 9:33
  We

  Absolutely.

  Yourself,

  How

  do
• 9:41
  you

  yourself?
• 9:42
  When
• 9:43
  do
• 9:43
  you
• 9:43
  find,
• 9:43
  like
• 9:43
  your

  That
• 9:51
  brings
• 9:52
  up
• 9:52
  something.
• 9:52
  And
• 9:53
  we've
• 9:53
  only
• 9:53
  got
• 9:53
  a
• 9:53
  few
• 9:53
  minutes
• 9:54
  left
• 9:54
  in
• 9:54
  this
• 9:54
  section,
• 9:55
  but
• 9:56
  I've
• 9:56
  heard
• 9:56
  you
• 9:56
  speak
• 9:57
  about
• 9:57
  the
• 9:57
  free
• 9:57
  and
• 9:58
  easy
• 9:58
  wanderer.
• 9:58
  Can
• 9:59
  you
• 9:59
  speak
• 9:59
  a
• 9:59
  little
• 9:59
  bit
• 9:59
  about
• 10:00
  that?
• 10:00
  What?
• 10:00
  That.
• 10:00
  What
• 10:01
  is
• 10:01
  that?
• 10:01
  Yeah,
• 10:02
  Chuang's.
• 10:02
  The
• 10:03
  first
• 10:03
  chapter
• 10:03
  is
• 10:04
  the
• 10:04
  Dr.
• 10:05
  Wu,
• 10:05
  our
• 10:05
  mentor,
• 10:06
  he
• 10:07
  called
• 10:07
  it,
• 10:07
  he
• 10:08
  said
• 10:08
  a
• 10:08
  better
• 10:08
  translation
• 10:09
  is
• 10:09
  the
• 10:09
  Rome
• 10:09
  of
• 10:10
  spiritual
• 10:10
  freedom.
• 10:11
  And
• 10:11
  the
• 10:12
  most
• 10:12
  common
• 10:12
  version
• 10:13
  that
• 10:13
  we
• 10:13
  have
• 10:13
  is
• 10:14
  called
• 10:14
  the
• 10:14
  free
• 10:14
  and
• 10:14
  easy
• 10:15
  wonder.
• 10:15
  But
• 10:16
  this
• 10:16
  is
• 10:16
  when
• 10:16
  you
• 10:17
  cultivate
• 10:17
  your
• 10:17
  mind
• 10:18
  to
• 10:18
  the
• 10:18
  highest
• 10:18
  level,
• 10:19
  then
• 10:19
  you
• 10:19
  understand
• 10:20
  your
• 10:20
  own
• 10:21
  true
• 10:21
  self,
• 10:21
  your
• 10:21
  own
• 10:21
  true
• 10:22
  nature.
• 10:23
  Then
• 10:23
  you
• 10:23
  can
• 10:23
  free
• 10:24
  and
• 10:24
  easy
• 10:24
  roam
• 10:25
  amongst
• 10:25
  the
• 10:26
  true
• 10:26
  self
• 10:26
  and
• 10:26
  true
• 10:27
  nature
• 10:27
  of
• 10:27
  all
• 10:27
  things.
• 10:28
  We've
• 10:29
  talked
• 10:29
  about
• 10:29
  before
• 10:29
  in
• 10:30
  this
• 10:30
  show
• 10:30
  that
• 10:31
  for
• 10:31
  Confucius,
• 10:33
  we
• 10:33
  all
• 10:34
  are
• 10:34
  made
• 10:34
  of
• 10:35
  heaven.
• 10:35
  That
• 10:35
  manifests
• 10:36
  in
• 10:36
  human
• 10:36
  beings,
• 10:36
  in
• 10:36
  our
• 10:37
  humanity,
• 10:37
  but
• 10:38
  all
• 10:38
  things
• 10:38
  are
• 10:38
  made
• 10:38
  of
• 10:39
  heaven.
• 10:39
  This
• 10:40
  also
• 10:40
  correlates
• 10:41
  with
• 10:41
  what
• 10:42
  we
• 10:42
  talked
• 10:42
  about
• 10:42
  before
• 10:42
  with
• 10:42
  Carl
• 10:43
  Sagan,
• 10:43
  that
• 10:43
  all
• 10:44
  things
• 10:44
  can
• 10:45
  trace
• 10:45
  their
• 10:46
  molecules
• 10:46
  back
• 10:47
  to
• 10:47
  the
• 10:47
  Big
• 10:47
  Bang.
• 10:48
  So
• 10:48
  this
• 10:48
  is
• 10:48
  in
• 10:48
  science,
• 10:49
  we
• 10:49
  are
• 10:49
  all
• 10:49
  made
• 10:50
  of
• 10:50
  heaven.
• 10:51
  So
• 10:51
  in
• 10:51
  Chuang
• 10:52
  Tzu,
• 10:53
  when
• 10:53
  you
• 10:53
  have
• 10:54
  your
• 10:54
  mind
• 10:54
  at
• 10:55
  this
• 10:55
  highest
• 10:55
  level,
• 10:56
  when
• 10:56
  you
• 10:56
  see
• 10:57
  this
• 10:57
  highest
• 10:57
  level,
• 10:58
  then
• 10:58
  you
• 10:58
  can
• 10:58
  free
• 10:59
  and
• 10:59
  easy
• 10:59
  roam
• 11:00
  in
• 11:00
  this
• 11:00
  spiritual
• 11:01
  level.
• 11:01
  You
• 11:01
  can
• 11:02
  free
• 11:02
  and
• 11:02
  easy
• 11:02
  roam
• 11:03
  in
• 11:03
  the
• 11:03
  heavenly
• 11:04
  nature
• 11:04
  of
• 11:04
  all
• 11:04
  things.
• 11:05
  You
• 11:05
  can
• 11:05
  freely
• 11:06
  and
• 11:06
  easily
• 11:07
  roam
• 11:08
  the
• 11:09
  wander
• 11:09
  of
• 11:09
  spiritual
• 11:10
  freedom,
• 11:10
  the
• 11:10
  roam
• 11:11
  of
• 11:11
  spiritual
• 11:11
  freedom.
• 11:11
  You
• 11:12
  can
• 11:12
  go
• 11:12
  everywhere
• 11:13
  and
• 11:13
  you
• 11:13
  are
• 11:14
  at
• 11:14
  home
• 11:14
  in
• 11:14
  the
• 11:14
  land
• 11:15
  of
• 11:15
  true
• 11:16
  nature,
• 11:16
  true
• 11:16
  self.
• 11:16
  So.
• 11:17
  So
• 11:17
  you,
• 11:17
  you
• 11:17
  can
• 11:18
  understand
• 11:18
  every
• 11:18
  single
• 11:19
  thing
• 11:19
  that
• 11:19
  you
• 11:19
  see
• 11:20
  in
• 11:20
  its
• 11:20
  heavenly
• 11:21
  nature,
• 11:22
  in
• 11:22
  its
• 11:22
  stardust
• 11:23
  nature,
• 11:23
  in
• 11:24
  its
• 11:24
  true
• 11:24
  self
• 11:25
  nature
• 11:25
  at
• 11:25
  its
• 11:25
  highest
• 11:26
  level.
• 11:26
  This
• 11:26
  is
• 11:26
  the
• 11:27
  room,
• 11:27
  this
• 11:27
  room
• 11:28
  of
• 11:28
  spiritual
• 11:28
  freedom.
• 11:30
  Okay,
• 11:31
  and
• 11:31
  we're
• 11:32
  coming
• 11:32
  to
• 11:32
  the
• 11:32
  end
• 11:32
  of
• 11:32
  this
• 11:33
  section
• 11:33
  here.
• 11:33
  But
• 11:35
  I
• 11:35
  remember
• 11:36
  there
• 11:36
  was
• 11:36
  a.
• 11:39
  I
• 11:39
  think
• 11:39
  it
• 11:39
  was
• 11:39
  a
• 11:39
  koan
• 11:40
  or
• 11:40
  a
• 11:40
  public
• 11:41
  case.
• 11:43
  In
• 11:44
  Buddhism,
• 11:44
  to
• 11:45
  study
• 11:45
  the
• 11:45
  Buddha
• 11:45
  way
• 11:45
  is
• 11:46
  to
• 11:46
  study
• 11:46
  the
• 11:46
  self.
• 11:46
  To
• 11:46
  study
• 11:47
  the
• 11:47
  self
• 11:47
  is
• 11:47
  to
• 11:47
  forget
• 11:48
  the
• 11:48
  self.
• 11:48
  To
• 11:49
  forget
• 11:49
  the
• 11:49
  self
• 11:49
  is
• 11:49
  to
• 11:49
  become
• 11:50
  one
• 11:50
  of.
• 11:50
  With
• 11:50
  the
• 11:50
  10,000
• 11:51
  things.
• 11:52
  Is
• 11:52
  becoming
• 11:52
  one
• 11:53
  with
• 11:53
  the
• 11:53
  10,000
• 11:53
  things,
• 11:54
  meaning
• 11:54
  everything
• 11:55
  continues
• 11:56
  endlessly
• 11:57
  and
• 11:57
  everything
• 11:57
  drops
• 11:58
  away.
• 11:58
  And
• 11:59
  so
• 11:59
  I.
• 12:00
  In
• 12:00
  our
• 12:00
  next
• 12:00
  segment,
• 12:01
  I
• 12:01
  would
• 12:01
  like
• 12:01
  to
• 12:01
  talk
• 12:02
  a
• 12:02
  bit
• 12:02
  about
• 12:04
  forgetting
• 12:04
  the
• 12:04
  self,
• 12:05
  because
• 12:06
  I
• 12:06
  think
• 12:06
  that's
• 12:08
  when
• 12:08
  you
• 12:08
  forget
• 12:08
  the
• 12:08
  self
• 12:09
  and
• 12:09
  you
• 12:09
  go
• 12:09
  into
• 12:09
  the
• 12:10
  zone.
• 12:10
  Like,
• 12:11
  you
• 12:11
  know,
• 12:11
  as
• 12:11
  a
• 12:11
  soccer
• 12:12
  coach,
• 12:12
  you
• 12:12
  know
• 12:12
  about
• 12:14
  cultivating
• 12:15
  your
• 12:16
  soccer
• 12:16
  players
• 12:16
  to
• 12:16
  go
• 12:17
  into
• 12:17
  the
• 12:17
  zone.
• 12:18
  Then
• 12:18
  they
• 12:18
  just
• 12:18
  play
• 12:19
  and
• 12:19
  they
• 12:19
  don't
• 12:20
  think
• 12:20
  about
• 12:20
  it.
• 12:20
  And
• 12:21
  I
• 12:21
  Want
• 12:21
  to
• 12:21
  come
• 12:21
  back
• 12:22
  to
• 12:22
  this
• 12:22
  idea
• 12:22
  that
• 12:23
  there's
• 12:23
  a
• 12:23
  rock
• 12:23
  drummer
• 12:24
  named
• 12:24
  Vinny
• 12:25
  Colatuta
• 12:26
  who
• 12:26
  said
• 12:27
  thought
• 12:28
  is
• 12:28
  the
• 12:28
  enemy
• 12:28
  of
• 12:29
  flow.
• 12:30
  So
• 12:31
  let's
• 12:31
  talk
• 12:31
  about
• 12:32
  that
• 12:32
  in
• 12:32
  the
• 12:32
  next
• 12:33
  segment.
• 12:34
  I'm

  you're

• 12:53
  That's
• 12:53
  where
• 12:54
  almost
• 12:54
  everything
• 12:54
  will
• 12:55
  be

  YouTube,
• 13:00
  but
• 13:00
  I
• 13:01
  think
• 13:01
  those
• 13:01
  are
• 13:01
  the
• 13:01
  best
• 13:02
  avenues,
• 13:02
  those

• 14:15
  Public
• 14:16
  philosophy.
• 14:17
  Why
• 14:17
  should
• 14:17
  we
• 14:17
  have
• 14:17
  public
• 14:18
  philosophy?
• 14:19
  Isn't
• 14:19
  philosophy
• 14:20
  a

  luxury?
• 14:21
  Why
• 14:22
  should

  you

  philosophy?
• 14:24
  Yeah,

  First

  of

  wisdom

  The

  more
• 14:29
  you
• 14:30
  know
• 14:30
  about

  doesn't

  it
• 14:31
  feel

  more
• 14:32
  rich?
• 14:33
  So

  don't

  more

  about

  So

  you

  want
• 14:36
  to
• 14:36
  know
• 14:37
  more
• 14:37
  about
• 14:37
  life,
• 14:37
  then
• 14:37
  you
• 14:37
  study

  philosophy.
• 14:38
  Study

  Wisdom
• 14:40
  in

  in

  practice.
• 14:42
  That's
• 14:43
  this
• 14:43
  living
• 14:43
  conversation.
• 14:44
  We're
• 14:44
  having
• 14:44
  a
• 14:45
  conversation
• 14:45
  about
• 14:45
  life.
• 14:46
  And
• 14:46
  this
• 14:46
  conversation
• 14:47
  should
• 14:47
  be
• 14:47
  alive.
• 14:48
  This
• 14:48
  conversation
• 14:49
  should
• 14:49
  enter
• 14:49
  into
• 14:49
  our
• 14:50
  lives.
• 14:50
  Philosophy
• 14:51
  should
• 14:51
  enter
• 14:51
  into
• 14:51
  our
• 14:51
  lives.
• 14:52
  And
• 14:52
  philosophy.
• 14:53
  The
• 14:53
  best
• 14:53
  philosophy
• 14:54
  has
• 14:54
  always
• 14:55
  been
• 14:55
  public
• 14:56
  because
• 14:56
  the
• 14:57
  best
• 14:57
  philosophers
• 14:57
  always
• 14:58
  knew
• 14:58
  that
• 14:59
  the
• 14:59
  better
• 14:59
  we
• 15:00
  all
• 15:00
  are,
• 15:01
  then
• 15:01
  the
• 15:01
  better
• 15:01
  society
• 15:02
  will
• 15:02
  be.
• 15:02
  It's,
• 15:03
  it's,
• 15:03
  it's.
• 15:04
  A
• 15:04
  rising
• 15:05
  tide
• 15:05
  lifts
• 15:05
  all
• 15:05
  boats.
• 15:06
  If
• 15:06
  we
• 15:06
  are
• 15:06
  all
• 15:07
  wise
• 15:07
  and
• 15:07
  virtuous,
• 15:07
  wouldn't
• 15:08
  we
• 15:08
  like
• 15:08
  to
• 15:08
  live
• 15:08
  in
• 15:09
  a
• 15:09
  place
• 15:09
  like
• 15:09
  that?
• 15:10
  So
• 15:10
  the
• 15:10
  more
• 15:10
  we
• 15:11
  allow
• 15:11
  philosophy
• 15:11
  to
• 15:12
  enter
• 15:12
  into
• 15:12
  the
• 15:12
  public,
• 15:13
  the
• 15:13
  more
• 15:14
  beneficial
• 15:14
  it
• 15:14
  is
• 15:14
  for
• 15:15
  everyone.
• 15:15
  The
• 15:15
  more
• 15:16
  we
• 15:16
  allow
• 15:16
  philosophy
• 15:17
  and
• 15:17
  wisdom
• 15:17
  to
• 15:17
  enter
• 15:17
  into
• 15:18
  our
• 15:18
  lives,
• 15:19
  the
• 15:19
  more
• 15:19
  enriched
• 15:19
  our
• 15:20
  lives
• 15:20
  should
• 15:20
  be.
• 15:21
  Socrates
• 15:21
  said,
• 15:22
  the
• 15:22
  unexamined
• 15:22
  life
• 15:23
  is
• 15:23
  not
• 15:23
  worth
• 15:23
  living.
• 15:24
  That,
• 15:24
  so
• 15:24
  that
• 15:25
  the
• 15:25
  reverse
• 15:25
  dies.
• 15:25
  That
• 15:26
  examining
• 15:26
  things,
• 15:27
  being
• 15:27
  critical
• 15:28
  about
• 15:28
  them,
• 15:28
  taking,
• 15:29
  being
• 15:29
  mindful
• 15:30
  of
• 15:30
  them,
• 15:30
  makes
• 15:31
  life
• 15:31
  worth
• 15:31
  living.
• 15:32
  Well,
• 15:33
  and
• 15:33
  I'm
• 15:33
  also
• 15:35
  brings
• 15:35
  to
• 15:35
  mind
• 15:36
  Plato's
• 15:37
  Cave.
• 15:38
  There's
• 15:38
  a
• 15:38
  lot
• 15:38
  of
• 15:40
  us,
• 15:40
  our
• 15:40
  fellow
• 15:41
  human
• 15:41
  beings,
• 15:42
  that
• 15:43
  are
• 15:43
  choosing
• 15:43
  to
• 15:45
  remain
• 15:45
  willfully
• 15:46
  ignorant.
• 15:47
  And
• 15:49
  can
• 15:49
  you
• 15:49
  quickly
• 15:50
  tell
• 15:50
  the
• 15:51
  story
• 15:51
  of
• 15:51
  Plato's
• 15:51
  Cave?
• 15:53
  Well,
• 15:53
  for,
• 15:53
  for
• 15:53
  those
• 15:53
  of
• 15:54
  you
• 15:54
  who
• 15:54
  don't
• 15:54
  know,
• 15:54
  Plato's
• 15:55
  Cave
• 15:55
  is
• 15:55
  an
• 15:56
  image.
• 15:56
  It
• 15:56
  comes
• 15:56
  in
• 15:57
  the,
• 15:57
  the
• 15:57
  book,
• 15:58
  the
• 15:58
  Republic.
• 15:59
  Okay.
• 15:59
  And
• 16:00
  it's
• 16:00
  an
• 16:00
  image.
• 16:00
  The
• 16:01
  Republic
• 16:01
  is
• 16:01
  to
• 16:01
  discuss
• 16:02
  how
• 16:02
  to
• 16:03
  have
• 16:03
  the
• 16:03
  best
• 16:04
  country.
• 16:04
  So
• 16:05
  Socrates
• 16:05
  and
• 16:05
  his
• 16:06
  friends
• 16:06
  are
• 16:06
  discussing
• 16:07
  what's
• 16:07
  the
• 16:07
  best
• 16:07
  way
• 16:08
  to
• 16:08
  organize
• 16:08
  a
• 16:08
  country.
• 16:09
  So
• 16:09
  they
• 16:09
  start
• 16:09
  from
• 16:09
  the
• 16:09
  beginning.
• 16:10
  They
• 16:10
  say,
• 16:10
  well,
• 16:10
  you
• 16:10
  need
• 16:11
  this,
• 16:11
  you
• 16:11
  need
• 16:11
  that,
• 16:11
  you
• 16:11
  need
• 16:11
  this,
• 16:12
  you
• 16:12
  need,
• 16:12
  you
• 16:12
  need
• 16:12
  food,
• 16:13
  for
• 16:13
  example,
• 16:13
  you
• 16:13
  need,
• 16:14
  you
• 16:15
  also
• 16:15
  need
• 16:15
  security.
• 16:16
  So
• 16:16
  you
• 16:16
  need
• 16:17
  soldiers,
• 16:18
  but
• 16:18
  also,
• 16:18
  also
• 16:19
  you
• 16:19
  need
• 16:19
  education
• 16:20
  in
• 16:20
  education,
• 16:21
  a
• 16:22
  wise,
• 16:22
  virtuous
• 16:23
  education.
• 16:24
  Because
• 16:24
  how
• 16:25
  else
• 16:25
  can
• 16:25
  we
• 16:25
  live?
• 16:26
  Well,
• 16:27
  we
• 16:27
  need
• 16:27
  wisdom
• 16:28
  and
• 16:28
  virtue.
• 16:29
  So
• 16:30
  the
• 16:31
  allegory
• 16:32
  of
• 16:32
  the
• 16:32
  cave
• 16:32
  is
• 16:32
  to
• 16:32
  show
• 16:33
  that
• 16:33
  this
• 16:33
  is
• 16:33
  what
• 16:33
  education
• 16:34
  should
• 16:34
  be.
• 16:35
  Education
• 16:35
  is
• 16:36
  like,
• 16:37
  we
• 16:37
  are
• 16:37
  all
• 16:39
  chained
• 16:40
  to.
• 16:41
  Education
• 16:41
  helps
• 16:41
  us
• 16:41
  out
• 16:42
  of
• 16:42
  the
• 16:42
  situation.
• 16:43
  Education
• 16:43
  is
• 16:43
  liberation.
• 16:44
  So
• 16:44
  the
• 16:45
  allegory
• 16:45
  is
• 16:45
  like
• 16:46
  we
• 16:46
  are
• 16:46
  all
• 16:46
  chained
• 16:47
  facing
• 16:48
  a
• 16:48
  cave
• 16:49
  wall,
• 16:49
  and
• 16:50
  behind
• 16:50
  us
• 16:50
  is
• 16:51
  a
• 16:51
  fire.
• 16:52
  And
• 16:52
  in
• 16:52
  between
• 16:52
  us
• 16:53
  and
• 16:53
  the
• 16:53
  fire
• 16:53
  are
• 16:55
  captors
• 16:56
  holding
• 16:58
  little
• 16:58
  silhouettes,
• 16:59
  little
• 17:00
  minuets.
• 17:01
  What
• 17:01
  do
• 17:01
  you
• 17:01
  call
• 17:01
  those?
• 17:02
  Little
• 17:02
  puppets?
• 17:03
  Yeah,
• 17:03
  little
• 17:03
  puppet
• 17:04
  type
• 17:04
  of
• 17:04
  things
• 17:04
  that
• 17:04
  cast
• 17:05
  a
• 17:05
  shadow
• 17:05
  on
• 17:06
  the
• 17:06
  cave
• 17:06
  wall.
• 17:07
  So
• 17:07
  our
• 17:07
  entire
• 17:07
  life,
• 17:08
  the
• 17:08
  allegory
• 17:08
  says
• 17:09
  our
• 17:09
  entire
• 17:09
  life,
• 17:09
  we
• 17:09
  are
• 17:10
  a
• 17:10
  chain.
• 17:10
  We
• 17:11
  are
• 17:11
  facing
• 17:11
  just
• 17:11
  these
• 17:12
  shadows
• 17:12
  on
• 17:12
  the
• 17:12
  wall.
• 17:13
  Right.
• 17:13
  And
• 17:13
  that's
• 17:13
  our
• 17:14
  reality,
• 17:14
  is
• 17:15
  all
• 17:15
  we
• 17:15
  know.
• 17:16
  Yeah.
• 17:16
  If
• 17:17
  someone
• 17:18
  gathered
• 17:19
  us
• 17:19
  and
• 17:19
  led
• 17:20
  us
• 17:20
  out
• 17:20
  the
• 17:21
  cave
• 17:21
  through
• 17:22
  a
• 17:22
  pathway
• 17:23
  that
• 17:23
  ascends
• 17:23
  to
• 17:24
  opening
• 17:24
  in
• 17:25
  the
• 17:25
  ground,
• 17:25
  this
• 17:26
  is
• 17:26
  like
• 17:27
  the
• 17:27
  path
• 17:27
  of
• 17:27
  education.
• 17:28
  We
• 17:29
  reorient
• 17:30
  our
• 17:30
  minds
• 17:31
  from
• 17:31
  shadows
• 17:32
  to
• 17:32
  truth.
• 17:33
  This
• 17:33
  is
• 17:33
  the
• 17:33
  upward
• 17:34
  journey
• 17:34
  of
• 17:34
  the
• 17:34
  soul.
• 17:35
  So
• 17:36
  true.
• 17:36
  Education
• 17:36
  is
• 17:37
  like
• 17:37
  we
• 17:37
  lead
• 17:37
  our
• 17:38
  minds
• 17:38
  out
• 17:38
  of
• 17:39
  a
• 17:39
  cave
• 17:39
  of
• 17:39
  shadows
• 17:40
  to
• 17:40
  see
• 17:41
  reality.
• 17:42
  So
• 17:42
  what
• 17:42
  would
• 17:42
  this
• 17:42
  experience
• 17:43
  be
• 17:43
  like?
• 17:43
  It
• 17:44
  would
• 17:44
  be
• 17:44
  difficult.
• 17:44
  It'll
• 17:45
  be
• 17:45
  challenging.
• 17:45
  As
• 17:46
  we
• 17:46
  move
• 17:46
  out
• 17:47
  of
• 17:47
  the
• 17:47
  cave,
• 17:47
  we
• 17:48
  feel
• 17:48
  very
• 17:48
  disoriented.
• 17:49
  Right.
• 17:50
  As
• 17:50
  we
• 17:51
  finally
• 17:51
  leave
• 17:52
  the
• 17:52
  cave,
• 17:52
  the
• 17:53
  world
• 17:53
  feels
• 17:53
  so
• 17:53
  bright
• 17:54
  and
• 17:54
  just,
• 17:55
  just
• 17:55
  mind
• 17:55
  boggling
• 17:56
  to
• 17:56
  us.
• 17:56
  It
• 17:56
  would
• 17:56
  take
• 17:56
  some
• 17:57
  adjustment
• 17:57
  time.
• 17:57
  Right.
• 17:58
  But
• 17:59
  would
• 17:59
  we
• 18:00
  ever
• 18:00
  want
• 18:00
  to
• 18:01
  go
• 18:01
  back
• 18:01
  in
• 18:01
  shackles
• 18:02
  again?
• 18:02
  Absolutely
• 18:03
  not.
• 18:04
  We
• 18:04
  would
• 18:04
  rather,
• 18:05
  we
• 18:06
  would
• 18:06
  rather
• 18:06
  be
• 18:06
  a
• 18:07
  servant
• 18:07
  in
• 18:08
  reality
• 18:09
  than
• 18:09
  the
• 18:10
  king
• 18:10
  of
• 18:10
  the
• 18:10
  shadows
• 18:11
  down
• 18:11
  below.
• 18:12
  So
• 18:12
  this,
• 18:13
  then
• 18:14
  we
• 18:15
  would
• 18:15
  go
• 18:15
  back
• 18:15
  into
• 18:15
  the
• 18:16
  cave.
• 18:16
  To
• 18:16
  say,
• 18:17
  hey
• 18:17
  everyone,
• 18:18
  this
• 18:18
  is
• 18:18
  not
• 18:18
  right.
• 18:19
  This
• 18:19
  is
• 18:19
  not
• 18:19
  reality.
• 18:20
  Get
• 18:20
  out
• 18:20
  of
• 18:20
  here.
• 18:21
  And
• 18:21
  what
• 18:21
  would
• 18:22
  happen,
• 18:22
  they
• 18:22
  will
• 18:22
  all
• 18:22
  think
• 18:23
  you're
• 18:23
  crazy.
• 18:23
  They
• 18:23
  don't
• 18:23
  know
• 18:24
  anything
• 18:24
  about
• 18:24
  reality.
• 18:26
  So
• 18:26
  this
• 18:26
  is
• 18:26
  like,
• 18:26
  this
• 18:27
  is
• 18:27
  an
• 18:27
  allegory
• 18:27
  for
• 18:28
  education.
• 18:28
  The
• 18:29
  real
• 18:29
  education
• 18:29
  is
• 18:30
  that
• 18:30
  we
• 18:30
  reorient
• 18:31
  our
• 18:31
  soul
• 18:32
  towards,
• 18:32
  towards
• 18:33
  truth,
• 18:34
  towards,
• 18:34
  towards
• 18:35
  what
• 18:35
  really
• 18:36
  matters,
• 18:36
  what
• 18:36
  really
• 18:36
  exists.
• 18:37
  And
• 18:37
  we
• 18:37
  stop
• 18:38
  chasing
• 18:38
  shadows
• 18:38
  on
• 18:39
  a
• 18:39
  wall.
• 18:39
  And,
• 18:39
  and
• 18:40
  this
• 18:40
  is,
• 18:40
  this
• 18:40
  is
• 18:40
  an
• 18:41
  allegory
• 18:41
  for
• 18:41
  that
• 18:41
  experience.
• 18:42
  Well,
• 18:42
  what's
• 18:43
  so
• 18:43
  curious
• 18:43
  to
• 18:43
  me
• 18:43
  is
• 18:44
  it
• 18:44
  seems
• 18:44
  that
• 18:45
  some
• 18:45
  of
• 18:45
  us
• 18:46
  are
• 18:46
  choosing
• 18:47
  to
• 18:47
  go
• 18:47
  back
• 18:47
  in
• 18:47
  and
• 18:47
  put
• 18:48
  the
• 18:48
  chains
• 18:48
  on
• 18:49
  so
• 18:49
  that
• 18:49
  we
• 18:50
  can
• 18:50
  do
• 18:50
  on
• 18:51
  to
• 18:51
  those
• 18:52
  who
• 18:52
  are
• 18:52
  still
• 18:52
  in
• 18:52
  the
• 18:52
  cave.
• 18:53
  And
• 18:54
  there's
• 18:54
  an
• 18:54
  image
• 18:55
  that
• 18:55
  came
• 18:55
  to
• 18:55
  mind
• 18:56
  as
• 18:56
  you
• 18:56
  were
• 18:56
  speaking.
• 18:57
  There's
• 18:57
  a
• 18:57
  tarot
• 18:57
  card
• 18:58
  image
• 18:58
  about
• 19:00
  the
• 19:00
  devil.
• 19:01
  And
• 19:01
  it's
• 19:02
  not
• 19:02
  that
• 19:02
  I'm
• 19:03
  advocating
• 19:04
  for
• 19:04
  this
• 19:04
  in
• 19:04
  any
• 19:05
  way
• 19:05
  or
• 19:05
  anything,
• 19:05
  but
• 19:06
  the
• 19:07
  devil
• 19:07
  is
• 19:07
  standing
• 19:07
  there
• 19:08
  and
• 19:09
  there's
• 19:09
  a
• 19:09
  male
• 19:10
  and
• 19:10
  a
• 19:10
  female
• 19:11
  and
• 19:11
  they
• 19:11
  have
• 19:11
  chains
• 19:12
  on,
• 19:12
  but
• 19:13
  the
• 19:13
  chains
• 19:13
  are
• 19:13
  loose.
• 19:15
  And
• 19:15
  I
• 19:15
  would
• 19:17
  presume
• 19:17
  that
• 19:19
  everyone
• 19:19
  has
• 19:20
  a
• 19:20
  choice
• 19:22
  to.
• 19:22
  The
• 19:23
  chains
• 19:23
  are
• 19:23
  loose.
• 19:24
  If
• 19:24
  we
• 19:25
  choose
• 19:26
  not
• 19:26
  to
• 19:26
  know
• 19:27
  that
• 19:27
  the
• 19:28
  chains
• 19:28
  are
• 19:28
  loose,
• 19:28
  then
• 19:29
  they.
• 19:29
  We
• 19:29
  can't
• 19:29
  get
• 19:30
  out.
• 19:30
  But
• 19:31
  I
• 19:32
  think,
• 19:32
  isn't
• 19:32
  that
• 19:33
  the
• 19:33
  point
• 19:33
  of
• 19:33
  education
• 19:34
  is
• 19:34
  to
• 19:34
  offer
• 19:35
  choice
• 19:35
  and
• 19:36
  awareness
• 19:36
  of
• 19:36
  choice?
• 19:37
  Would
• 19:38
  you
• 19:38
  say
• 19:38
  that's
• 19:38
  true?
• 19:39
  Yeah,
• 19:40
  I
• 19:40
  remember
• 19:41
  vividly
• 19:42
  my
• 19:42
  first
• 19:43
  days
• 19:43
  in
• 19:44
  Philosophy
• 19:44
  101
• 19:45
  class
• 19:46
  and
• 19:47
  I
• 19:47
  went
• 19:47
  and
• 19:47
  changed
• 19:48
  my
• 19:48
  major
• 19:48
  right
• 19:48
  away.
• 19:50
  Oh,
• 19:50
  really?
• 19:51
  Socrates
• 19:51
  said,
• 19:52
  you
• 19:52
  know,
• 19:53
  wouldn't
• 19:53
  we
• 19:54
  mentioned
• 19:54
  this
• 19:54
  before
• 19:54
  in
• 19:54
  episode
• 19:55
  one?
• 19:55
  But
• 19:55
  wouldn't
• 19:55
  you,
• 19:56
  if
• 19:56
  you're
• 19:56
  out
• 19:56
  at
• 19:57
  sea,
• 19:57
  would
• 19:57
  you
• 19:58
  rather,
• 19:58
  rather
• 19:58
  be
• 19:58
  with
• 19:58
  a
• 19:59
  wise
• 19:59
  sea
• 19:59
  captain
• 19:59
  or
• 20:00
  ignorant
• 20:00
  one?
• 20:01
  Yeah,
• 20:01
  he
• 20:02
  goes
• 20:02
  along
• 20:02
  and
• 20:02
  says,
• 20:02
  what
• 20:02
  about
• 20:03
  war?
• 20:03
  What
• 20:03
  about
• 20:04
  medicine?
• 20:04
  Always
• 20:05
  you
• 20:05
  want
• 20:05
  the
• 20:05
  wise
• 20:06
  person.
• 20:06
  So
• 20:07
  his
• 20:07
  argument
• 20:08
  was
• 20:08
  that
• 20:09
  we
• 20:10
  don't,
• 20:10
  we
• 20:10
  want
• 20:10
  to
• 20:10
  have
• 20:11
  a
• 20:11
  good
• 20:11
  life.
• 20:11
  So
• 20:12
  then
• 20:12
  don't
• 20:12
  you
• 20:12
  want
• 20:12
  to
• 20:13
  have
• 20:13
  wisdom
• 20:13
  about
• 20:13
  life?
• 20:14
  So
• 20:14
  then
• 20:14
  don't
• 20:14
  you
• 20:15
  want
• 20:15
  to
• 20:15
  study
• 20:15
  philosophy?
• 20:16
  What
• 20:16
  else
• 20:16
  would
• 20:16
  you
• 20:17
  possibly
• 20:17
  want
• 20:17
  to
• 20:17
  do
• 20:18
  in
• 20:18
  life
• 20:18
  than
• 20:18
  study
• 20:19
  how
• 20:19
  to
• 20:19
  live?
• 20:20
  Well,
• 20:20
  right.
• 20:21
  So
• 20:21
  I
• 20:21
  went
• 20:21
  and
• 20:21
  changed
• 20:21
  my
• 20:21
  major
• 20:22
  right
• 20:22
  away.
• 20:23
  But,
• 20:23
  but
• 20:24
  you
• 20:24
  know,
• 20:25
  later,
• 20:25
  a
• 20:25
  couple
• 20:25
  weeks
• 20:26
  later,
• 20:26
  we
• 20:26
  learned
• 20:26
  the
• 20:26
  allegory
• 20:26
  of
• 20:27
  the
• 20:27
  cave.
• 20:27
  And,
• 20:27
  and
• 20:27
  I
• 20:28
  thought,
• 20:28
  man,
• 20:28
  why
• 20:28
  isn't
• 20:29
  my
• 20:29
  teacher
• 20:29
  like,
• 20:29
  famous?
• 20:30
  Why
• 20:30
  doesn't
• 20:30
  he
• 20:30
  have
• 20:31
  an
• 20:31
  infomercial?
• 20:32
  Who,
• 20:33
  who,
• 20:33
  who
• 20:33
  would,
• 20:34
  who
• 20:34
  would
• 20:34
  not
• 20:34
  listen
• 20:35
  to
• 20:35
  this?
• 20:35
  Why
• 20:35
  does
• 20:35
  he
• 20:35
  have
• 20:36
  like
• 20:36
  infomercial?
• 20:36
  Why
• 20:36
  hasn't
• 20:37
  he
• 20:37
  written
• 20:37
  a
• 20:37
  million
• 20:37
  books
• 20:37
  that
• 20:38
  everyone
• 20:38
  wants
• 20:38
  to
• 20:38
  be
• 20:38
  wise?
• 20:39
  And
• 20:39
  this
• 20:40
  was
• 20:41
  naive.
• 20:41
  I
• 20:41
  was
• 20:41
  naive.
• 20:42
  And
• 20:42
  you
• 20:43
  know,
• 20:43
  I
• 20:43
  was
• 20:43
  also
• 20:43
  believing
• 20:44
  in
• 20:44
  the
• 20:44
  still.
• 20:45
  I
• 20:45
  was
• 20:45
  very
• 20:45
  young,
• 20:45
  so
• 20:45
  I
• 20:45
  was
• 20:45
  also
• 20:45
  naive
• 20:46
  and
• 20:46
  believing
• 20:46
  in
• 20:46
  meritocracy.
• 20:47
  Right.
• 20:48
  But
• 20:49
  I
• 20:49
  later
• 20:50
  on
• 20:51
  the
• 20:51
  soccer
• 20:51
  team,
• 20:51
  I
• 20:51
  had,
• 20:52
  I
• 20:52
  mentioned
• 20:52
  to
• 20:52
  a
• 20:53
  few
• 20:53
  different
• 20:53
  teammates,
• 20:53
  you
• 20:54
  should
• 20:54
  take
• 20:54
  this
• 20:54
  class.
• 20:54
  The
• 20:55
  younger
• 20:55
  teammates,
• 20:55
  you
• 20:56
  should
• 20:56
  take
• 20:56
  this
• 20:56
  class.
• 20:57
  And
• 20:57
  one
• 20:57
  kind
• 20:57
  of
• 20:58
  enjoyed
• 20:58
  it.
• 20:58
  One
• 20:58
  just
• 20:59
  was
• 20:59
  meh.
• 21:00
  And
• 21:00
  I
• 21:00
  thought,
• 21:00
  wow,
• 21:00
  okay,
• 21:01
  so
• 21:01
  this
• 21:01
  is
• 21:01
  just
• 21:01
  different.
• 21:02
  People
• 21:02
  respond
• 21:02
  differently
• 21:03
  to
• 21:04
  the
• 21:04
  shadows
• 21:05
  on
• 21:05
  the
• 21:05
  wall
• 21:05
  and
• 21:05
  to
• 21:05
  coming
• 21:06
  out
• 21:06
  cave.
• 21:06
  Yeah.
• 21:08
  But
• 21:08
  you,
• 21:08
  you
• 21:08
  became
• 21:09
  aware
• 21:10
  that
• 21:11
  you
• 21:12
  weren't
• 21:12
  aware.
• 21:13
  Yeah.
• 21:14
  Socratic
• 21:14
  ignorance.
• 21:15
  And
• 21:17
  so
• 21:17
  you
• 21:17
  chose
• 21:17
  to
• 21:18
  step
• 21:18
  out.
• 21:18
  And
• 21:19
  I'm
• 21:19
  sure
• 21:19
  that,
• 21:19
  that
• 21:20
  it
• 21:20
  was,
• 21:21
  you
• 21:21
  know,
• 21:21
  we
• 21:22
  talked
• 21:22
  last
• 21:22
  week
• 21:22
  about,
• 21:23
  about
• 21:23
  the
• 21:24
  stagnating
• 21:24
  food.
• 21:24
  But
• 21:25
  the
• 21:25
  food
• 21:25
  that
• 21:26
  is
• 21:26
  offered
• 21:26
  by
• 21:27
  philosophy
• 21:27
  is
• 21:28
  always
• 21:28
  fresh.
• 21:30
  You
• 21:30
  know,
• 21:33
  I
• 21:33
  have
• 21:33
  to
• 21:34
  say
• 21:35
  it's,
• 21:36
  it's
• 21:37
  the
• 21:37
  basis
• 21:37
  of
• 21:39
  knowledge
• 21:40
  is
• 21:41
  philosophy.
• 21:42
  Yeah.
• 21:43
  For,
• 21:43
  for
• 21:43
  millennia.
• 21:44
  So
• 21:45
  there's
• 21:45
  a
• 21:45
  philosophy
• 21:45
  of
• 21:46
  business,
• 21:46
  there's
• 21:46
  a
• 21:47
  philosophy
• 21:47
  of
• 21:47
  politics,
• 21:48
  there's
• 21:48
  a
• 21:48
  philosophy
• 21:48
  of
• 21:49
  our
• 21:50
  lives.
• 21:51
  So
• 21:52
  anyway,
• 21:53
  and
• 21:53
  before
• 21:54
  we
• 21:54
  get
• 21:54
  too
• 21:54
  far
• 21:54
  into
• 21:55
  our
• 21:55
  next
• 21:55
  section
• 21:56
  here,
• 21:57
  last
• 21:57
  section,
• 21:58
  I
• 21:58
  was
• 21:58
  talking
• 21:58
  about
• 22:00
  forgetting
• 22:01
  the
• 22:01
  self.
• 22:02
  And
• 22:03
  that's
• 22:03
  in
• 22:03
  Chuna,
• 22:04
  but
• 22:04
  it's
• 22:04
  also
• 22:04
  in
• 22:05
  a
• 22:05
  number
• 22:05
  of
• 22:05
  other
• 22:05
  places,
• 22:07
  like
• 22:07
  to
• 22:08
  study
• 22:08
  the
• 22:08
  Buddha
• 22:08
  way.
• 22:09
  Can
• 22:09
  you
• 22:09
  talk
• 22:09
  about
• 22:10
  when
• 22:10
  you're
• 22:11
  coaching
• 22:12
  a,
• 22:12
  a
• 22:12
  soccer
• 22:13
  team,
• 22:13
  how
• 22:13
  do
• 22:14
  you
• 22:14
  cultivate
• 22:15
  people
• 22:17
  going
• 22:17
  into
• 22:17
  the
• 22:17
  zone?
• 22:18
  And
• 22:18
  I
• 22:18
  suppose
• 22:18
  it's
• 22:19
  a
• 22:19
  mastery
• 22:19
  of
• 22:19
  fundamentals.
• 22:20
  Right.
• 22:21
  But
• 22:21
  how
• 22:21
  do
• 22:21
  you
• 22:21
  do
• 22:22
  that?
• 22:23
  Well,
• 22:24
  you
• 22:24
  know,
• 22:24
  my
• 22:24
  kids
• 22:25
  were
• 22:25
  on.
• 22:25
  A
• 22:25
  swim
• 22:25
  team
• 22:26
  once
• 22:26
  and
• 22:26
  they
• 22:26
  had.
• 22:26
  A
• 22:27
  speaker
• 22:27
  come
• 22:27
  into
• 22:27
  us
• 22:28
  and
• 22:28
  they
• 22:28
  had
• 22:28
  done
• 22:28
  some
• 22:29
  research.
• 22:29
  It
• 22:29
  was
• 22:29
  about
• 22:29
  basically
• 22:30
  training
• 22:30
  the
• 22:30
  parents
• 22:30
  how
• 22:31
  to
• 22:31
  support
• 22:31
  your
• 22:33
  training
• 22:33
  the
• 22:33
  parents
• 22:34
  rather
• 22:34
  than
• 22:34
  the
• 22:36
  teaching
• 22:36
  the
• 22:36
  parents
• 22:37
  that
• 22:38
  the
• 22:39
  best,
• 22:39
  the
• 22:39
  highest
• 22:40
  level,
• 22:40
  we
• 22:40
  always
• 22:41
  say,
• 22:41
  have
• 22:42
  fun,
• 22:42
  have
• 22:43
  fun.
• 22:43
  When
• 22:43
  you
• 22:43
  tell
• 22:44
  your
• 22:44
  child
• 22:44
  to
• 22:44
  go
• 22:44
  out,
• 22:45
  play
• 22:45
  a
• 22:45
  sport,
• 22:45
  have
• 22:46
  fun.
• 22:46
  And
• 22:47
  this
• 22:47
  is
• 22:47
  actually
• 22:47
  the
• 22:47
  right
• 22:48
  message
• 22:48
  because
• 22:48
  when
• 22:48
  you're
• 22:49
  in
• 22:49
  the
• 22:49
  zone,
• 22:49
  it's
• 22:50
  the
• 22:50
  ultimate
• 22:50
  function.
• 22:51
  You
• 22:51
  feel
• 22:51
  so
• 22:51
  free,
• 22:52
  you
• 22:52
  forgot
• 22:53
  yourself.
• 22:53
  Right.
• 22:54
  So.
• 22:54
  So
• 22:55
  telling
• 22:56
  your
• 22:56
  kids
• 22:56
  to
• 22:57
  have
• 22:57
  fun
• 22:57
  when
• 22:57
  they
• 22:58
  go
• 22:58
  play
• 22:58
  a
• 22:58
  sport
• 22:59
  is,
• 22:59
  is
• 22:59
  correct.
• 23:00
  And
• 23:00
  then
• 23:01
  what
• 23:01
  the
• 23:01
  parent
• 23:01
  should
• 23:01
  say
• 23:02
  is,
• 23:02
  I
• 23:03
  had
• 23:03
  a
• 23:03
  lot
• 23:03
  of
• 23:03
  fun
• 23:03
  watching
• 23:04
  you
• 23:04
  out
• 23:04
  there.
• 23:05
  Maybe
• 23:06
  later
• 23:06
  you
• 23:06
  can
• 23:06
  talk
• 23:06
  about
• 23:06
  if
• 23:07
  you
• 23:07
  know
• 23:07
  the
• 23:07
  sport.
• 23:07
  Maybe
• 23:07
  later
• 23:08
  you
• 23:08
  can
• 23:08
  talk
• 23:08
  about
• 23:08
  some
• 23:08
  things
• 23:08
  they
• 23:08
  could
• 23:09
  work
• 23:09
  on
• 23:09
  or
• 23:09
  this
• 23:09
  or
• 23:09
  that.
• 23:10
  But
• 23:10
  why
• 23:10
  didn't
• 23:11
  you
• 23:11
  get
• 23:11
  more
• 23:11
  goals?
• 23:11
  You
• 23:12
  know,
• 23:12
  that's
• 23:12
  not
• 23:12
  the
• 23:12
  goal.
• 23:13
  Right.
• 23:14
  It's
• 23:14
  good
• 23:15
  to
• 23:15
  analyze
• 23:15
  and
• 23:15
  examine
• 23:16
  for
• 23:16
  sure.
• 23:16
  You
• 23:17
  should
• 23:17
  investigate
• 23:18
  the
• 23:18
  is
• 23:18
  this
• 23:18
  is
• 23:18
  part
• 23:19
  of
• 23:19
  life,
• 23:19
  but
• 23:20
  you
• 23:20
  should
• 23:20
  be
• 23:20
  always
• 23:20
  having
• 23:21
  fun.
• 23:21
  Right.
• 23:22
  And
• 23:22
  so
• 23:22
  we,
• 23:22
  we
• 23:23
  do
• 23:23
  this
• 23:23
  actually
• 23:24
  we
• 23:24
  do
• 23:24
  this
• 23:24
  very
• 23:25
  well
• 23:25
  in
• 23:25
  America.
• 23:26
  When
• 23:26
  I
• 23:26
  was
• 23:26
  in,
• 23:26
  when
• 23:27
  I
• 23:27
  was
• 23:27
  in
• 23:27
  China,
• 23:27
  my,
• 23:28
  my
• 23:28
  close
• 23:28
  liaison
• 23:29
  said
• 23:29
  in
• 23:29
  China,
• 23:30
  we
• 23:30
  don't
• 23:30
  know
• 23:30
  in
• 23:31
  Japan
• 23:31
  they
• 23:31
  know
• 23:32
  how
• 23:32
  to
• 23:32
  work
• 23:32
  very
• 23:32
  hard,
• 23:33
  work
• 23:33
  very
• 23:33
  well.
• 23:34
  In
• 23:35
  America,
• 23:35
  you
• 23:35
  know
• 23:36
  how
• 23:36
  to
• 23:36
  have
• 23:36
  fun.
• 23:37
  You
• 23:37
  always
• 23:37
  have
• 23:38
  fun.
• 23:38
  Go
• 23:38
  do
• 23:38
  many
• 23:38
  different
• 23:39
  things
• 23:39
  to
• 23:39
  amuse
• 23:39
  yourself.
• 23:40
  He
• 23:40
  said,
• 23:40
  he
• 23:40
  said,
• 23:41
  in
• 23:41
  China,
• 23:41
  we
• 23:41
  don't
• 23:41
  know
• 23:42
  either.
• 23:42
  We
• 23:42
  don't
• 23:43
  do
• 23:43
  either.
• 23:43
  I
• 23:43
  said,
• 23:44
  actually,
• 23:44
  I
• 23:44
  disagree.
• 23:45
  I.
• 23:46
  When
• 23:46
  I
• 23:46
  was
• 23:46
  in
• 23:46
  China,
• 23:47
  I
• 23:47
  thought
• 23:47
  that
• 23:47
  they
• 23:47
  were
• 23:48
  constantly
• 23:49
  integrating
• 23:50
  fun
• 23:51
  and
• 23:51
  work
• 23:51
  together.
• 23:52
  That
• 23:52
  work,
• 23:54
  yeah,
• 23:54
  work
• 23:54
  didn't
• 23:55
  feel
• 23:55
  like
• 23:55
  a
• 23:55
  task
• 23:56
  and
• 23:56
  a
• 23:56
  chore.
• 23:57
  Work
• 23:57
  felt
• 23:57
  like
• 23:57
  social
• 23:59
  and
• 23:59
  it
• 23:59
  felt
• 24:00
  like
• 24:00
  people
• 24:00
  were
• 24:00
  happy
• 24:01
  to
• 24:01
  be
• 24:01
  with
• 24:01
  each
• 24:01
  other.
• 24:02
  So
• 24:02
  this
• 24:02
  is.
• 24:02
  Your
• 24:03
  humanity
• 24:03
  is
• 24:03
  coming
• 24:03
  out.
• 24:04
  So
• 24:04
  this,
• 24:04
  this
• 24:04
  is
• 24:04
  actually
• 24:04
  the
• 24:05
  most
• 24:05
  fun.
• 24:07
  Was
• 24:07
  there
• 24:08
  more
• 24:08
  of
• 24:08
  a.
• 24:08
  Speaking
• 24:09
  of
• 24:09
  China
• 24:09
  where
• 24:10
  you
• 24:10
  went
• 24:10
  to
• 24:10
  teach
• 24:10
  English,
• 24:11
  did
• 24:11
  you
• 24:12
  find
• 24:12
  more
• 24:12
  of
• 24:12
  a
• 24:13
  community
• 24:13
  spirit?
• 24:15
  Yeah.
• 24:16
  Was
• 24:16
  cultural
• 24:17
  once
• 24:17
  that
• 24:17
  a
• 24:17
  very,
• 24:18
  very
• 24:18
  meaningful
• 24:19
  thing?
• 24:19
  And
• 24:19
  I
• 24:19
  mentioned
• 24:20
  this
• 24:20
  when
• 24:20
  we
• 24:20
  were
• 24:20
  in
• 24:20
  China
• 24:21
  and
• 24:21
  it
• 24:21
  would
• 24:21
  just,
• 24:22
  it
• 24:23
  would
• 24:23
  just
• 24:23
  stop
• 24:24
  people
• 24:24
  in
• 24:24
  their
• 24:24
  tracks.
• 24:25
  What's
• 24:25
  that?
• 24:25
  Dr.
• 24:26
  Wu
• 24:26
  once
• 24:26
  that
• 24:26
  either
• 24:26
  it
• 24:27
  was
• 24:27
  from
• 24:27
  himself
• 24:27
  or
• 24:28
  his
• 24:28
  friend,
• 24:29
  some,
• 24:29
  some
• 24:30
  young
• 24:30
  person
• 24:30
  would
• 24:30
  say,
• 24:30
  why
• 24:31
  do
• 24:31
  we
• 24:31
  need
• 24:31
  to
• 24:31
  study
• 24:31
  Confucius?
• 24:32
  Confucius
• 24:32
  is
• 24:32
  very
• 24:33
  old.
• 24:33
  I
• 24:33
  don't
• 24:34
  study
• 24:34
  Confucius.
• 24:36
  We
• 24:36
  shouldn't
• 24:36
  study
• 24:36
  that
• 24:37
  old
• 24:37
  guy.
• 24:37
  It's.
• 24:37
  It's
• 24:38
  anachronism,
• 24:38
  right?
• 24:39
  Yeah.
• 24:39
  And
• 24:39
  his
• 24:40
  friend
• 24:40
  said,
• 24:41
  even
• 24:41
  though
• 24:41
  Confucius
• 24:42
  is
• 24:42
  from
• 24:42
  a
• 24:42
  very
• 24:43
  long
• 24:43
  time
• 24:43
  ago,
• 24:43
  we
• 24:44
  still
• 24:44
  understand
• 24:44
  him
• 24:45
  today.
• 24:45
  It's
• 24:46
  like
• 24:46
  even
• 24:46
  though
• 24:46
  the
• 24:46
  sun
• 24:47
  is
• 24:47
  very
• 24:47
  far
• 24:47
  away,
• 24:48
  we
• 24:48
  still
• 24:48
  feel
• 24:49
  its
• 24:49
  warmth.
• 24:49
  Oh,
• 24:50
  that's.
• 24:50
  So
• 24:51
  even
• 24:51
  though
• 24:51
  I
• 24:52
  went
• 24:52
  to
• 24:52
  China
• 24:52
  after,
• 24:53
  even
• 24:53
  Mao,
• 24:54
  after
• 24:55
  Cultural
• 24:55
  Revolution,
• 24:56
  after
• 24:56
  denying
• 24:57
  tradition
• 24:58
  for
• 24:58
  a
• 24:58
  long
• 24:58
  time,
• 24:59
  you
• 24:59
  could
• 25:00
  still
• 25:00
  feel
• 25:00
  the
• 25:00
  warmth,
• 25:01
  the
• 25:01
  warm
• 25:01
  heartedness
• 25:02
  in
• 25:02
  the
• 25:02
  people.
• 25:03
  You
• 25:03
  could
• 25:03
  still
• 25:03
  feel
• 25:04
  the
• 25:04
  warmth
• 25:04
  of
• 25:04
  Confucius.
• 25:05
  People
• 25:06
  still
• 25:08
  giants
• 25:08
  like
• 25:09
  Confucius
• 25:09
  had
• 25:10
  filial
• 25:10
  piety.
• 25:11
  So
• 25:11
  you
• 25:12
  would
• 25:12
  go
• 25:12
  around
• 25:12
  town
• 25:13
  and
• 25:13
  every
• 25:13
  stranger
• 25:14
  if
• 25:15
  they
• 25:15
  were
• 25:15
  in
• 25:15
  good
• 25:16
  faith
• 25:16
  was
• 25:16
  like
• 25:16
  your
• 25:16
  uncle.
• 25:17
  Every
• 25:18
  older
• 25:18
  stranger
• 25:19
  was
• 25:19
  like
• 25:19
  your
• 25:19
  grandpa.
• 25:20
  Can
• 25:20
  you
• 25:20
  explain
• 25:21
  filial
• 25:21
  piety,
• 25:22
  please?
• 25:22
  So
• 25:22
  yeah,
• 25:23
  filial
• 25:23
  piety
• 25:23
  for
• 25:24
  Confucius
• 25:24
  is.
• 25:24
  This
• 25:24
  is
• 25:24
  the
• 25:25
  first
• 25:25
  place
• 25:26
  we
• 25:26
  learn
• 25:26
  humanity.
• 25:27
  Humanity
• 25:28
  is
• 25:28
  the
• 25:28
  most
• 25:28
  important
• 25:29
  virtue
• 25:29
  in.
• 25:29
  Confucius,
• 25:30
  the
• 25:31
  very
• 25:31
  first
• 25:31
  place.
• 25:32
  Learn
• 25:32
  practical
• 25:33
  wisdom.
• 25:34
  Humanity
• 25:35
  is
• 25:35
  with
• 25:35
  mother
• 25:36
  and
• 25:36
  father,
• 25:37
  our
• 25:37
  first
• 25:38
  relationship.
• 25:38
  This
• 25:39
  is
• 25:39
  philosophy
• 25:39
  in
• 25:39
  life,
• 25:40
  in
• 25:40
  practice.
• 25:40
  Humanity,
• 25:41
  we
• 25:41
  are
• 25:41
  all
• 25:41
  human
• 25:42
  beings.
• 25:42
  We
• 25:43
  all
• 25:43
  have
• 25:43
  a
• 25:43
  mother
• 25:44
  and
• 25:44
  father.
• 25:44
  We
• 25:45
  all
• 25:45
  need
• 25:45
  to
• 25:45
  learn
• 25:45
  to
• 25:45
  relate
• 25:46
  this
• 25:46
  way.
• 25:47
  So
• 25:48
  Confucius
• 25:48
  said,
• 25:49
  father
• 25:49
  should
• 25:49
  be
• 25:49
  a
• 25:50
  father,
• 25:50
  a
• 25:50
  son
• 25:51
  should
• 25:51
  be
• 25:51
  a
• 25:51
  son.
• 25:51
  Or
• 25:52
  we
• 25:52
  can
• 25:52
  modify
• 25:52
  it.
• 25:52
  A
• 25:53
  parent
• 25:53
  should
• 25:53
  be
• 25:53
  a
• 25:53
  parent,
• 25:54
  a
• 25:54
  child
• 25:54
  should
• 25:54
  be
• 25:54
  a
• 25:54
  child.
• 25:55
  That
• 25:55
  means
• 25:56
  the
• 25:56
  parent
• 25:56
  works
• 25:57
  very
• 25:57
  hard
• 25:58
  to
• 25:58
  take
• 25:58
  care
• 25:58
  of
• 25:59
  the
• 25:59
  child.
• 26:00
  The
• 26:00
  parent
• 26:01
  feels
• 26:01
  very
• 26:03
  strong
• 26:03
  connection,
• 26:04
  wants
• 26:04
  to
• 26:04
  make
• 26:04
  the
• 26:05
  life
• 26:05
  so
• 26:05
  good
• 26:06
  for
• 26:06
  the
• 26:06
  child.
• 26:06
  So
• 26:07
  this
• 26:07
  is
• 26:07
  the
• 26:07
  spirit
• 26:08
  of
• 26:08
  a
• 26:08
  parent.
• 26:08
  And
• 26:09
  with
• 26:09
  this
• 26:09
  spirit
• 26:10
  of
• 26:10
  a
• 26:10
  parent.
• 26:10
  The
• 26:11
  reciprocal
• 26:11
  also
• 26:12
  is
• 26:12
  that
• 26:13
  a
• 26:13
  child
• 26:13
  really
• 26:13
  feels
• 26:14
  reverent.
• 26:14
  I'll
• 26:15
  follow
• 26:15
  my
• 26:15
  mom
• 26:15
  and
• 26:15
  dad
• 26:16
  because
• 26:16
  they
• 26:16
  care
• 26:17
  for
• 26:17
  me.
• 26:17
  They
• 26:17
  will
• 26:18
  help
• 26:18
  me
• 26:18
  go
• 26:18
  in
• 26:18
  the
• 26:19
  right
• 26:19
  direction.
• 26:19
  I
• 26:20
  won't
• 26:20
  listen.
• 26:20
  I
• 26:20
  won't
• 26:20
  run
• 26:20
  into
• 26:21
  the
• 26:21
  street
• 26:21
  because
• 26:21
  my
• 26:21
  mom
• 26:21
  and
• 26:21
  dad
• 26:22
  said
• 26:22
  no,
• 26:22
  oh,
• 26:22
  I
• 26:23
  just
• 26:23
  saved
• 26:23
  my
• 26:23
  life.
• 26:24
  But
• 26:25
  wouldn't
• 26:25
  you
• 26:25
  say
• 26:25
  there's
• 26:26
  a
• 26:26
  lot
• 26:26
  of
• 26:27
  reciprocal
• 26:27
  respect?
• 26:29
  Yes,
• 26:29
  yes.
• 26:30
  When
• 26:30
  it's,
• 26:30
  that's
• 26:30
  when
• 26:31
  the
• 26:31
  parent,
• 26:31
  the
• 26:32
  child's
• 26:32
  a
• 26:32
  child.
• 26:33
  Yeah,
• 26:33
  both
• 26:33
  are.
• 26:34
  Respect.
• 26:35
  Yes,
• 26:35
  yes.
• 26:36
  Reverence,
• 26:36
  Filip,
• 26:37
  and
• 26:37
  reverence
• 26:38
  for
• 26:38
  each
• 26:38
  other.
• 26:38
  Right,
• 26:39
  Right.
• 26:39
  Well,
• 26:40
  we
• 26:40
  have
• 26:40
  to
• 26:40
  take
• 26:40
  another
• 26:40
  break.
• 26:41
  I'm
