This lecture discusses key ideas from the early medieval philosopher and theologian, Augustine of Hippo's work, The Confessions.

It focuses specifically on his discussion in book 10 of the temptations involved in the "concupiscence of the eyes", namely our tendency to take delight or interest in the things that we see with this sense, and the drive of curiosity, the desire to know things that are really not our concern or our business .

Augustine of Hippo, Confessions - Temptations Of The Eyes - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the early medieval philosopher and theologian, Augustine of Hippo's work, The Confessions.

It focuses specifically on his discussion in book 10 of the type of temptation that is called "the pride of life", or (due to an alternate translation from the Latin Vulgate) the "ambition of the world". This has to do with our desire to feared or loved by others, to set ourselves above others, and wanting others to acknowledge our superiority.

Augustine of Hippo, Confessions - The Pride Of Life - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the early medieval philosopher and theologian, Augustine of Hippo's work, The Confessions.

It focuses specifically on his discussion in book 11 of how God and time are related to each other, starting from questions raised by considering creation out of nothing and what God was doing or thinking before that creation. As it turns out, there is no time before creation, since time as we know it involves change of things.  Augustine also discusses how God knows past and future events, namely as being in eternity

Augustine of Hippo, Confessions - God, Time, and Creation - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the early medieval philosopher and theologian, Augustine of Hippo's work, The Confessions.

It focuses specifically on his discussion in book 11 bearing upon how we can measure time.It seems a bit paradoxical when we examine it, since past and present don't really exist as the present does, and the present is just a moment. Augustine's solution is to say that we measure lengths of time against each other and that we use the capacity for memory in doing so.

Augustine of Hippo, Confessions - Time And Its Measures - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the early medieval philosopher and theologian, Augustine of Hippo's work, The Confessions.

It focuses specifically on his discussion in book 11 focused on what time is, where he examines our usual way of understanding it in terms of past, present, and future. This raises some issues, given that the present only exists at and for a moment, the past no longer is, and the future is not yet.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "The Writing Of The God" which can be found in Collected Fictions. 

It centers on a priest Tzinacán, previously serving at the pyramid of Qaholom, now imprisoned for the rest of his life in a dark cell. There is a jaguar on the other side. Inspired by a legend about the god, he attempts to discern what the writing of the god would be, and eventually deciphers it

Jorge Luis Borges - The Writing Of The God - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "The Theologians" which can be found in Collected Fictions. 

It centers on a (perhaps one-way) rivalry between two Christian theologians, Aurelian and John of Pannonia, in a time when the Christian church is struggling with a number of heresies, some opposed to each other. John and Aurelian both produce refutations of one heresy, and then when Aurelian uses a passage from John's earlier refutation in a new refutation of a different heresy, John is condemned as a heretic.  In the end, Borges suggests, there might not be any real difference between the two men

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "Death And The Compass" which can be found in Collected Fictions. 

It takes the form of a detective tale, where the legendary, highly intelligent detective, Eric Lönnrot, does not figure out all of the aspects of the pattern of crimes, including the fact that he is the intended victim of the fourth crime. This is revealed to him by the criminal Red Scarlach, who has set up the entire sequence of crimes to entice Lönnrot to his death, creating a labyrinth in which he would be drawn

In this episode, Dave interviews Dr. Michael Gillespie about his book 'Distancing - How Great Leaders Reframe to Make Better Decisions', which explores psychological distancing as a tool for better decision-making. They discuss the importance of stepping outside one's own perspective to gain clarity, the different types of distancing (self, time, and space), and practical applications of these techniques. The conversation also touches on the role of journaling, the significance of construal level theory, and how mindfulness can complement these strategies. Ultimately, the discussion emphasizes the need for individuals to pause and reflect in order to make more informed decisions.

Takeaways
	•	Psychological distancing helps individuals see situations more clearly.
	•	Mindfulness is beneficial, but not always sufficient for immediate decision-making.
	•	There are three primary types of distancing: self, time, and space.
	•	Journaling in the third person can enhance self-awareness and clarity.
	•	Construal level theory explains the difference between high-level abstract thinking and low-level concrete thinking.
	•	Taking a pause is crucial in emotionally charged situations.
	•	Practicing distancing techniques can lead to better emotional regulation.
	•	Being a 'fly on the wall' can provide valuable perspective in difficult moments.
	•	It's important to normalize the practice of pausing in group settings.
	•	The ultimate goal is to make better decisions and improve overall well-being.

Welcome to the Jump podcast, where we explore Rob Paterson's transformative concept of "the Jump" – a radical shift from a life of external expectations and perceived slavery to one of genuine freedom and self-determination.
In this powerful series, Rob unpacks how many of us live like children or "slaves" in systems like school and the corporate world, where our self-worth is defined by others and our lives are governed by external contracts and illusory security. He argues that this world, built on fear, insecurity, and greed, is undergoing a demolition, presenting a huge opportunity for growth.
The Jump is about waking up to this reality and choosing to live an adult, free life. It's about reclaiming your agency, identifying your unique talents, and building direct, personal relationships that provide real value.
This isn't a utopia, and the journey is fraught with challenges. Rob shares how the Jump impacts every aspect of your life:
• Economics: Learning to drastically cut expenses and debt to lower your "burn rate" and gain financial freedom, rather than chasing ever-higher incomes.
• Relationships: Navigating the difficult renegotiation of implicit contracts with partners, family, and friends who are tied to the "old you". It's about supporting others to be their best selves, fostering choice and reciprocity.
• Children & Education: Rethinking traditional schooling, nurturing your children's true selves and unique interests, and actively parenting their development outside of conventional systems.
• Meaning of Life & Death: Shifting from a consumerist, fear-driven existence to finding status in contribution, compassion, and authentic connection. It's about understanding that "heaven is here today in this world" through a life well-lived.
Are you ready to question the status quo, listen to that inner voice, and start your own Jump? Join us as Rob shares personal stories and practical insights to guide you on this transformative path. Discover how to live in peace and partnership, creating win-win solutions, starting with yourself.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "Deutsches Requiem" which can be found in Collected Fictions. 

The story is narrated in the voice of an unrepentant Nazi about to be executed for war crimes, Otto Dietrich zur Linde. He claims to be inspired in his life and in his activity within the Nazi party by great people in philosophy, literature, and music, and argues that we are now entering a new age of violence, which Nazi Germany helped to steer the world towards, even though it has to be sacrificed in the process

Jorge Luis Borges - Deutsches Requiem - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "The Shape Of The Sword" which can be found in Collected Fictions. 

Borges listens to a story told by a former Irish revolutionary, marked by a scar across his face. the narrative centers on a physically cowardly and intellectually arrogant comrade, John Vincent Moon, who the narrator will save and protect and then be betrayed by to the British. It will turn out that the narrator himself is that very person Moon, and that he has told the story in that manner to get a full hearing. He then demands that Borges despise him.
