Jordan Peterson on the Importance of Beauty | Oz Talk with Jordan Peterson
In this video, Jordan Peterson explains that beauty calls to us outside the faculty of rational criticism. There are experiences that we have in life that our outside of rational criticism, and we need to attend to them. Jordan Peterson describes the action of listening to beautiful music and the way it grips you. The critical mind could pop up and say, “Well, what are you doing? This is just noises. It doesn’t have any significance.” But the wiser part of you says, “You’re out of your depth…listen to the music and experience what happens.” Beauty calls you to a higher motive being. And Jordan Peterson shares that to be engrossed in beauty and meaning is more powerful than perhaps death itself.
Also, Jordan Peterson says that there is a divine aspect to beauty and that it is true whether you’re an Atheist or not. This is because the divine element is the depth of the experience which is independent of propositional beliefs.
Lastly, Dr. Oz asks Jordan Peterson why we find it important as human beings to make ourselves more attractive for each other. Jordan Peterson expresses that many of these markers of beauty can be associated with health and youth, but it is also the reflection of the ideal human form. A call to health. A call to physical appearance. And also a call to figure out what is “attractive”.
