1
Our great intelligence causes great anxiety.
2
There's a burden to our cognitive enlightenment.
3
As existential organisms, there's all sorts of supernatural beliefs that we invest in.
4
There's the common ones that most people are familiar with related to the religious traditions that we're part of,
5
but there's also all sorts of other types of supernatural beliefs such as the belief in ghosts, a belief in other types of spirits,
6
a belief in psychic powers, a belief in almost superhuman abilities like mind reading.
7
We also invest in things that aren't necessarily hardcore beliefs but that we might refer to as supernatural light, things like UFOs and aliens.
8
Our interest in the supernatural is probably a story as old as our species.
9
There's something about wanting to not be confined by earthly parameters.
10
The story of supernatural thinking is a complex one.
11
That is, there's not just one source or one cause of our supernatural interest, but a big one is the realization of our mortality.
12
Supernatural beliefs give us some sense that even though life on this planet is short, even though it's uncertain.
13
There's a part of me that is more than that.
14
There's a part of me that's beyond my material existence.
15
I have some spiritual essence that transcends mortality.
16
We also have to deal with the loss of loved ones.
17
And supernatural beliefs help us deal with loss.
18
When a loved one passes, we gain some sense of comfort and our sadness that we still remain connected to them in some way.
19
In some way, the relationship persists, even though they're not physically with us anymore.
20
All animals at some level need to make sense of the external world.
21
It helps to have some basic understanding of cause and effect.
22
But what makes humans unique is not only do we need to make sense of our external world
23
so we can navigate it, but we also have an internal world.
24
We're very introspective.
25
We're highly self -aware, and so we want to make sense of our own lives.
26
And supernatural beliefs can help us make sense of the external world by helping make it more orderly and predictable,
27
but it also plays a critical role in helping us make sense of our own existence.
28
At some level, all humans are aware of the fact that we're tiny.
29
We're tiny in a lot of ways, right?
30
If you think about our relative size in the universe,
31
we're just a tiny speck on a planet that's just a tiny part of a much larger universe.
32
In addition to that, if you think about the concept of time, that also makes us feel small.
33
We know that our time on this planet is very brief in the grand scheme of things.
34
Supernatural beliefs help us connect ourselves to something that solves that problem of smallness.
35
Even though I'm only here for a brief moment in time, I'm connected to others who have been here for a long time
36
and hopefully connected to others that will be here for a long time in the future.
37
As humans who are highly introspective, we have all sorts of insecurities and personal struggles that we have to deal with.
38
Supernatural beliefs in a lot of ways help us.
39
They help offer guidance.
40
They help us feel like there's some sense of order or purpose in our lives.
41
They're part of that dialogue with the self.
42
That's one of the reasons people pray, for instance, is they want to have a conversation
43
or connection with the divine as a way to help resolve some of their personal challenges and struggles.
44
So there seems to be a lot of evidence that supernatural thinking is natural to humans.
45
It's part of what it means to be a human, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's good.
46
Critics of supernatural beliefs would think that they can make us believe in things that are just scientifically false.
47
Supernatural beliefs can make people dogmatic, which can and contribute to serious conflict, even war.
48
At the same time, they are actually also quite good for us.
49
That anxiety inspires us.
50
It's part of the story of what makes us want to advance society
51
and to help others because we look beyond the mortal self.
52
Supernatural beliefs help us feel like we're part of a meaningful cosmic drama.

이 영상으로 연습하는 방법

  1. 먼저 말하지 않고 영상을 끝까지 듣고 모르는 단어를 적어 둡니다.
  2. 0.75배속으로 한 문장씩 섀도잉을 시작하고, 익숙해지면 보통 속도로 돌아갑니다.
  3. 자신의 목소리를 녹음해 원본과 비교하고, belief, supernatural, connect 같은 단어에 특히 주의합니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
