What did you see as a GP that showed you something was missing in how we're raising our young people?
4:38
Thank you, Sam.
4:39
And it's lovely to be back on your podcast again and to remember the times you've been here and when we first met, which I'll talk about in a moment.
4:48
But I'm on land of the Iruquo people of the Bundjalung Nation.
4:55
And also there were, I believe, initiation grounds right near here that we can see from the land up in the cliffs.
5:03
So yes, it's a perfect time and place to have a conversation.
5:08
And we met, you and I met at Bercolo Bookshop when I was launching my book, The Making of Men.

So how do rites of passage help with that? Why are they significant to that process?
6:26
Sure.
6:26
A rite of passage is a transformational event.
6:30
And the way I look at it, there's a huge difference between a child and an adult.
6:36
And we want children to have the mindset of a child.
6:40
And for a child, they are the center of the universe.
6:43
It is all about them.

成年仪式是一种蜕变,会改变你,而当你经历了这个过程之后,就再也回不回去以前的那个自己。这位是鲁宾斯坦博士 Rubinstein,他是成年礼研究所 Rite of Passage Institute 的行政总裁同创办人。这个机构透过不同的计划,协助年轻人顺利完成迈向成人的这个转变。鲁宾斯坦博士曾经担任急症室医生多年,期间接触到不少澳洲的青少年,因为参与自己版本的成年仪式而被送进去急症室。

Unfortunately,in Australia,we have what I would say are a lot of unhealthy markers。

成年礼就是带领年轻人经历一个过程,令他们离开舒适圈,等他们自己安排时间去探索身份,在世界担任的角色,还有自己希望成为什么样的人。这个是关乎到集体主义、社群连结,还有归属感。对于金斯曼同鲁宾斯坦博士来讲,成年礼是一种有系统的方法,等社群可以引导年轻人走过成长过程当中的不确定性和转变。

Traditional and religious and indigenous communities。
