      I feel like I've read a number of people argue over the past several weeks that Peterson's interest in symbols isn't actually mysticism. This is mysticism. https://twitter.com/zei_nabq/status/998598765144625154 …

      If you read his first book, it's very clear he's a mystic. I don't see why people are in denial about this.

          Mysticism isn't intrinsically bad. In certain cases it's a religious form of individualism.

          C'mon, Jeet, this is crying out for a thread on Carlos Castaneda, Timothy Leary, and Aldous Huxley.

          I don't know what you mean. He's a "mystic"? Huh? He seems to be dispensing rather common-sense ideas, not pseudo-mysticism/quantum physics woo like, for example, @DeepakChopra who aspires, transparently, to be a prophet of a kind of populist mysticism. We're all insufferable!

          Can you explain to me how proposing that the reoccurring concept of the doublehelix represents some underlying ancient knowledge about the world in general or DNA in particular, accessible through ayahuasca trips, is anything but mysticism?
