    I really enjoyed the talk. I agree. if you don't have 20 minutes to meditate, you need to do 2 hours! Meditation produces more time for you.. we meditators always say "Just sit" when there's a problem. The answers always come to you!

    God says meditate on the scriptures day and night; this is so we can hear from the spirit of God to give insight.

    Exploring stillness in d mids of chaos in minds leads to bliss. Happiness means peace in mind which is already inbuilt in everybody, but distracted us by diff forces. Meditation helps us rediscover such stillness.

    I'm from the south side of Chicago so I get what he's saying 100% and I think it's wonderful. Once I'm done with school it's been my goal to go home and help uplift my people. The people are good people. It's the circumstances that trap(mentally and physically) many of them. Thanks Russell

    The game (meditation /yoga) still needs him to this day. He's a real example of a positive social metamorphosis in a modern society. Other than that he'd either be in jail, hopelessly addicted, sick, or dead, God bless him, he ain't killed nobody to get where he's at 🙏(namaste)

    I was desperate in the late 60's to stop smoking rope and doing other crap, and TM saved my bacon. I am eternally grateful to Maharishi for the gift he offered the world (at a price of course) and my only regret in life is that I wasn't a regular meditator all my life, but it is always there when I need it.
    It's heartening and encouraging to see people like Russel Simmons and David Lynch promoting TM so openly and I have great respect for their courage in facing the naysayers.

    i used to meditate quite often and listed to i-dozers when i was a teen so thinking i was a bit experienced, i took russel's advice and sat down at the end of the video for 20 minutes instead of 7, set an alarm and went for it. At the end of the 20 minutes, the sudden chime of my alarm struck me like an instrument and i was resonating complete bliss and then the immediate sight of russel's happy face, right on cue at the end of the seminar to tell me that this shit is free and i can have it everyday :)

    • @002brooklyn
      @002brooklyn 10 років тому +1

      Omg the same thing happen to me. When I was done I felt good and there where no negative thoughts in my head. The feeling lasted a day and a half and it was amazing but I can't seem to get there again, I need help.

    • @diptonsauce1985
      @diptonsauce1985 10 років тому

      002brooklyn Try downloading this app called Headspace, its really good. And i guess my best advice is to remember or keep in mind that while meditating, you dont need to be looking for something. Just listen to the silence.

    • @lavonnambrecht9630
      @lavonnambrecht9630 10 років тому +2

      002brooklyn Hi 002, May I suggest you quit trying anything other than being still. What you need will come to you. Consistency and patience are the best tools to use. You might not get back to where you were before because life is a journey forward not backward. Namaste

      Every monotheistic religion, perhaps..
      Yet, even in the Bible/Torah, if correctly translated, there are those who argue that God has a female counterpart, who was worshipped alongside him and edited out, or reduced to something else, such is the arrogance of "man!" :O
      And, I say that as a bloke myself.
      There are female Gods in any number of pantheistic religions and The Goddess, is a major feature in any number of Pre Judeo/Christian/Muslim religions.
      If God is a "he," I assume he has a penis? ;O))

      people keep trying to move away from logic when they think these things... why would you do that? really.. EVERYTHING has logic, maybe some you don't understand them yet. Maybe even growing a embryo outside the womb has logic to some degree if the human civilization in previous human cycles were already scientifically developed to 100%

    • @Alinntatul
      @Alinntatul 7 років тому

      why retards always put Jesus and God in the same sentence? Jesus was just a messenger who prayed to God, in the end he also asked God why he forsaken him. God sent the Qu'ran to Muhammad after 500 years, because retards started believing that Jesus is God. Retards nowadays believe the same thing...

    • @lavonnambrecht9630
      @lavonnambrecht9630 10 років тому +5

      Hi Richard, You make a valid argument and I think I understand why you make it. It is very hard to imagine someone that has done something one sees as very negative being turned around to want to spread positivity.
      All humans are on a journey of their own. Sometimes the journey has ugly detours one chooses to take. Sometimes it is not our choice but it is our reality. I might even say our journeys all have ugly detours. I know mine has. I found that the ugliness is sometimes a lesson we must learn before we can move forward. It might take that ugliness to teach us that is not the way we want to be now. Maybe we just grow out of it like a stage we went through as children or young adults.
      Our present is who we are now. Our past is what we did in the past. It doesn't define who we are now. It is what we were doing before we knew about how to live better lives.
      I know very little of who Russell was in his past, so I don't have to get through that particular package of negativity to hear what he is saying.
      I have known about most of what he is passing on to others now for a long time. I believe what he is trying to share is valuable for every human being on our planet. Perhaps the journey he was on allowed him to share his discovery with people who would not have learned it from anyone else. Can you imagine a bunch of rappers sitting down with the Dali Lama to hear this message? It's pretty funny now that I see it in my mind.

      my friend you need to understand the dynamics of political self promotion.Dont trust the media so much.If he really found the light to humility he probably wouldnt want the lime light for it.there is an agenda behind every move and its up to us to be smart enough to see when we are being sold.He does not in any moment speak in the specifics of finding the path nor has he said he is sorry ...its all about prestige and power...and people buy it up...because we love an underdog.
