In this video, Jordan Peterson explains the nature of consciousness. He shares that the left side of the brain dominates when things are working. When things aren’t working, it doesn’t know what to do so fantasy arises to hypothesize what this strange thing might be. And that is the realm of dreams that takes us into the unknown.

Dr. Oz asks Jordan Peterson why some people can see that partially known? Jordan Peterson says that those people live in they think more in dreams and images. Those are artists. They are the dreamers and we are captivated by them. Beyond the domain of rational thought is the domain of the dream. Jordan Peterson expresses that their artistry is vital. And if all you do is criticize the dream out of existence, all you’re left with is a nightmare.
