ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks - Religious leader
In a world violently polarized by extremists, Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks is proposing and advocating solutions to mounting religious intolerance.

Why you should listen

Rabbi Lord Sacks is one of Judaism's spiritual leaders, and he exercises a primary influence on the thought and philosophy of Jews and people of all faiths worldwide. Since stepping down as Chief Rabbi of the UK and Commonwealth in 2013, Rabbi Lord Sacks has become an increasingly well-known speaker, respected moral voice and writer. He has authored more than 30 books, the latest, Not in God's Name: Confronting Religious Violence, was published in 2015.

Granted a seat in the British House of Lords in 2009 and the winner of the 2016 Templeton Prize, Rabbi Lord Sacks is a key Jewish voice for universalism and an embrace of tolerance between religions and cultures. He rejects the "politics of anger" brought about by the way "we have acted as if markets can function without morals, international corporations without social responsibility and economic systems without regard to their effect on the people left stranded by the shifting tide." He also sees, as a key idea for faith in our times, that unity in heaven creates diversity on earth.

"Postoji li nešto što možemo učiniti, svatko od nas, kako bismo se mogli suočiti s budućnošću bez straha?", pita se rabin lord Jonathan Sacks. U ovom uzbudljivom govoru, duhovni vođa nam daje tri načina kojima se možemo odmaknuti od "ja" politike prema politici "svi mi zajedno".

tijekom nedavnih predsjedničkih izbora.

01:23
So is there something we can do,

3416
Dakle, postoji li nešto

kako bismo se suočili

01:32
I think there is.
24
80240
1320
Mislim da postoji.
01:34
And one way into it is to see
25
82800
2176
Jedan način za to je shvatiti

that perhapsmožda the mostnajviše simplejednostavan way

26
85000
5896
da je možda najjednostavniji način uvida
u neku kulturu i razdoblje,
01:42
is to askpitati: What do people worshipobožavanje?
27
90920
2976
postaviti pitanje: Što ljudi štuju?
01:45

is the selfsam, the me, the I.
47
148080
2760
sve u vezi "ja".
02:43
And this is great.

I to je odlično.
02:45
It's liberatingoslobađajući.
It's empoweringOsnaživanje. It's wonderfulpredivan.

03:19
When we have too much of the "I"
and too little of the "we,"
58
187560
3160
Kada imamo previše "ja", a premalo "mi",
03:23
we can find ourselvessebe vulnerableranjiv,
59

2080
možemo se osjetiti ranjivima,

So I think the simplestnajjednostavniji way

64

Zato mislim da je najjednostavniji način
očuvanja budućeg "vi"
03:43
is to strengthenjačanje the futurebudućnost "us"
65
211440
3056
jačanje budućeg "mi"

So let me first
take the us of relationshipodnos.

I'll tell you why the differencerazlika.
143
420280
2496
Čemu ta razlika? Objasnit ću vam.
07:14
Because AmericaAmerika was from the outsetpočetka
a nationnarod of waveval after waveval of immigrantsimigranata,
144
422800
4296
Amerika je od početka bila nacija
imigranata koji su dolazili u valovima,
07:19
so it had to createstvoriti an identityidentitet
145
427120
2176
stoga je morala stvoriti identitet,
07:21
whichkoji it did by tellingreći a storypriča
146
429320
2336
što je i učinila pričanjem priče
07:23
whichkoji you learnednaučeno at schoolškola,
you readčitati on memorialsljetopis
147
431680
2656
koju učite u školi, čitate na spomenicima
07:26
and you heardčuo repeatedponovljen
in presidentialpredsjednički inauguralinauguralan addressesadrese.
148
434360
3856
i ponovno slušate u predsjedničkim
inauguracijskim govorima.
07:30
BritainBritanija untildo recentlynedavno
wasn'tnije a nationnarod of immigrantsimigranata,
149
438240
3056
Britanija sve do nedavno
nije bila nacija imigranata
07:33
so it could take identityidentitet for grantedodobreno.
150
441320
2456
pa je mogla svoj identitet
uzimati zdravo za gotovo.
07:35
The troublenevolja is now
151
443800
1920
Sada je problem
07:39
that two things have happeneddogodilo
whichkoji shouldn'tne treba have happeneddogodilo togetherzajedno.
152
447040
3496
da su se dogodile dvije stvari
koje se nisu trebale dogoditi zajedno.
07:42
The first thing is in the WestZapad
we'veimamo stoppedprestao tellingreći this storypriča
153
450560
3296
Prva je da smo mi na zapadu
prestali pričati priču
07:45
of who we are and why,
154
453880
1536
o tome tko smo i zašto,
07:47
even in AmericaAmerika.
155
455440
1240
čak i u Americi.
07:49
And at the sameisti time,
156
457440
1576
A u isto vrijeme,
07:51
immigrationimigracije is higherviši
than it's ever been before.
157
459040
4856
imigracija je veća nego ikada prije.
07:55
So when you tell a storypriča
and your identityidentitet is strongjak,
158
463920
3296
Kada pričaš svoju priču
i tvoj identitet je jak,
07:59
you can welcomeDobrodošli the strangerstranac,
159
467240
2136
stranca možeš dočekati raširenih ruku,
08:01
but when you stop tellingreći the storypriča,
160
469400
2496
ali, kada prestaneš pričati priču,
08:03
your identityidentitet getsdobiva weakslab
161
471920
1536
tvoj identitet slabi
08:05
and you feel threatenedugroženi by the strangerstranac.
162
473480
3496
i osjećaš se ugroženim od stranaca.
08:09
And that's badloše.
163
477000
1576
A to je loše.
08:10
I tell you, JewsŽidovi have been scatteredraspršene
and dispersedraspršeno and exiledprognan for 2,000 yearsgodina.
164
478600
6296
Vidite, Židovi su kroz 2000 godina
bili raštrkani, raseljeni i prognani.
Nikada nismo izgubili svoj identitet.
08:16
We never lostizgubljen our identityidentitet.
165
484920
1696
08:18
Why? Because at leastnajmanje oncejednom a yeargodina,
166
486640
2096
Zašto? Jer barem jednom godišnje,
08:20
on the festivalfestivala of PassoverPasha,
167
488760
1736
na slavljenju Pashe,
08:22
we told our storypriča
and we taughtučio it to our childrendjeca
168
490520
2936
pričali smo svoju priču
i prenijeli je svojoj djeci,
08:25
and we atejeli the unleavenedbeskvasni
breadkruh of afflictionnevolje
169
493480
2256
jeli beskvasni kruh svoje patnje
08:27
and tastedokusio the bittergorak herbsbilje of slaveryropstvo.
170
495760
2416
i kušali gorke trave
koje nas prisjećaju na ropstvo.
08:30
So we never lostizgubljen our identityidentitet.
171
498200
2056
I tako nikada nismo izgubili
svoj identitet.
08:32
I think collectivelykolektivno
172
500280
1696
Mislim da se kolektivno
08:34
we'veimamo got to get back
to tellingreći our storypriča,
173
502000
2856
moramo vratiti pričanju naše priče,
08:36
who we are, where we camedošao from,
174
504880
2016
tko smo, odakle smo došli,
08:38
what idealsideale by whichkoji we liveživjeti.
175
506920
3120
koji su ideali prema kojima živimo.
08:42
And if that happensdogađa se,
176
510400
1856
I ako se to dogodi,
08:44
we will becomepostati strongjak enoughdovoljno
177
512280
2416
postat ćemo dovoljno snažni
08:46
to welcomeDobrodošli the strangerstranac and say,
178
514720
2656
da dočekamo stranca i kažemo,
08:49
"Come and sharePodjeli our livesživot,
179
517400
3096
"Dođi i budi dio naših života,

08:58
That is the us of identityidentitet.
182

1896
To je dio nas koji se tiče identiteta.
09:00
And finallykonačno, the us of responsibilityodgovornost.
183
528800
3320
I napokon, mi kroz odgovornost.
09:04
Do you know something?
184
532840
1256
Znate li što?
09:06
My favoriteljubimac phrasefraza in all of politicspolitika,
185
534120
2616
Moj omiljeni politički izraz,
09:08
very AmericanAmerički phrasefraza,
186
536760
1480
vrlo američki izraz,
09:11
is: "We the people."
187
539520
2320
je "Mi, ljudi."
09:15
Why "we the people?"
188
543120
1216
Zašto "Mi, ljudi"?
Jer govori da svi dijelimo
kolektivnu odgovornost
09:16
Because it sayskaže that we all
sharePodjeli collectivekolektivan responsibilityodgovornost
189
544360
4200
09:21
for our collectivekolektivan futurebudućnost.
190
549480
1680
za našu kolektivnu budućnost.
09:24
And that's how things
really are and should be.
191
552040
2640
I tako stvari stoje
i zaista bi trebale biti.
09:27
Have you noticedprimijetio how magicalčaroban thinkingmišljenje

09:31

izabrati ovog snažnog lidera
09:40

all our problemsproblemi for us.
195
568680
5200
i on ili ona će riješiti
sve naše probleme umjesto nas.
09:46
Believe me, that is magicalčaroban thinkingmišljenje.
196
574640
3200
Vjerujte mi, to je magično razmišljanje.
09:51

197

10:09
and the religiousvjerski and anti-religiousanti-vjerske
equallyjednako convinceduvjeren
202
597400
4016
a oni religijski i protu-religijski
jednako su uvjereni
10:13
that all it takes is God
or the absenceodsutnost of God
203
601440
4336
da je samo potreban bog, ili odsustvo boga
10:17
to saveuštedjeti us from ourselvessebe.
204
605800
2320
da nas spasi od nas samih.
10:20
That, too, is magicalčaroban thinkingmišljenje,
205
608760

I to je magično razmišljanje,
10:23
because the only people

206

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks - Religious leader
In a world violently polarized by extremists, Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks is proposing and advocating solutions to mounting religious intolerance.

Why you should listen

Rabbi Lord Sacks is one of Judaism's spiritual leaders, and he exercises a primary influence on the thought and philosophy of Jews and people of all faiths worldwide. Since stepping down as Chief Rabbi of the UK and Commonwealth in 2013, Rabbi Lord Sacks has become an increasingly well-known speaker, respected moral voice and writer. He has authored more than 30 books, the latest, Not in God's Name: Confronting Religious Violence, was published in 2015.

Granted a seat in the British House of Lords in 2009 and the winner of the 2016 Templeton Prize, Rabbi Lord Sacks is a key Jewish voice for universalism and an embrace of tolerance between religions and cultures. He rejects the "politics of anger" brought about by the way "we have acted as if markets can function without morals, international corporations without social responsibility and economic systems without regard to their effect on the people left stranded by the shifting tide." He also sees, as a key idea for faith in our times, that unity in heaven creates diversity on earth.
