Michaelveli9 - Read up on the Buddhist 4 noble truths and 8 fold path. Lots of good info out there since it’s 2600 years old. It’s where all these concepts fall out of. It’s both super simple and very complex. But it will change your life if you practice it, first consciously daily, but eventually it becomes your default mode every moment.
"I like clarity over cloudiness. It's fun! And the reason you get cloudy is so that you don't have noise, so you can be clear. So it's kind of a circle, right?! It's the same shit- we're all seeking a comfortable seat." BRILLIANT!! REAL WALKIE TALKIE RIGHT THERE.
The Slim Jesus jokes are getting lame. You guys complained that Vlad was giving him too much exposure and now that hes stopped yall keep bringing him up. Slim Jesus is dead.
+lemmieatit lol. and like the guy under you they will play dumb on the "white woman chasing" they like to phrase it " white woman love us" helps them sleep better at night after being black all their lives. 😅😂
As someone 3 years sober, I can see how you can still acknowledge you liked getting high/drunk/whatever, during that initial rush (no pun intended) but also acknowledge how much it fucked you up mentally/physically, was unsustainable, and ultimately caused a lot of suffering to yourself and others.
He was the Beastie Boys manager. lol Our manager's crazy He always smokes dust He's got his own room at the back of the bus. Beastie Boys - No Sleep Till Brooklyn Lyrics
I know its nothing compared to the drugs discussed in this vid but I stopped cigs after 6 years of smoking, with almost a pack a day in the last to years. I stopped cold turkey and ive not smoked a cig for over 6 months no and i dont need a motherfuckin cig in my life again. Do you still smoke? Stop that shit right now im telling you. At first its really hard, but know its easy as fuck! Thank God
+Yung Kao Moderation is key to balance; I think cannabis is great but many people abuse it too often. It has the potential to teach you deep meditation only if you don't get high all the time. Couple times on a weekend is very nice!
+Zang420 Its not often but how much you take. Even if you smoke once a year, you wouldnt benefit the deep state if you stoned. One hit a day is enough.
+Yung Kao it'll be temporary and promote attachment to the feeling. it will by no way help u in ur spiritual journey. im guessing thats what ur asking.... keep em separate. ;)
+ssf4evo It depends on what your smoking (btw nice framing you did there haha) A lot of weed people smoke nowadays is genetically modified. Not many people smoke 100% organic unadulterated Marijuana. But still they preach its naturalness.. nope.
what it comes down to: you trade an addiction for a healthier one. Addictions fill a gap/ and certain pain. Dont do drugs anymore, trading it with whatever, anything thats not damaging to the body. But more so in complience: lots of fruit, being active, love, compasion, fresh air- thats real, in the end: ALL real important shit are mostly free...when your on your deathbed you dont care for all material shit, but you care for true friends, love and fulfillment you have and had.... Humanism, fruit and more of that good stuf, adult ish... Im out.
he its your life and health bro, we all did some dirt....in the end you make choises and change direction when you feel like it....some things take time...
Perfect example of don't blame the drug, but blame the individual using the drug. Know how to say when people. Some people can do drugs and operate sufficiently, while others can't.
Rus had me dying how he said the whole wu tang were water heads lmao. Now when I see a wu member I'm gonna think about them being water heads for awhile.
Wouldn't say junkie. Junkies fuck their life away. This dude is one of the most successful persons in hip hop in the last 30-40 years. No junkie. I've come to realize that people can do drugs and still be functioning and successful. Although I don't condone it. Unless it's weed.
lol how is there dislikes on this video at all.... in 6min this dude teaches more than any actual teacher can do in an entire days worth of time.... amazing
No it's not. I'm sorry I am not haiter or something. But I've been there, I've been thinking like this. While I was smoking weed. Unfortunately it is not like this at all. Look more deeply into it. One day you will know. Only trying to help. Thank you.
Miro's Carpenters you sound so ignorant speak for your damn self. Marijuana totally changed the person I am, I used to be an aggressive person and get ticked off really quick, I smoked weed and ever since Im a calm ass dude. Just because your experience with marijuana wasn’t so pleasing doesn’t mean you should tell others it doesn’t belong in our bodies.
+KMFL that's not true. Smoke a good sativa and you will want to go on hike , learn new things, etc etc. now if you smoke indica you will be sleepy and that's what most regular people get on the streets because they think its cool to be lazy.
I dont know if anyone here knows this, but extremely deep meditation is like a psychedelic experience, but you are sober and it (as long as you are healthy) brings a feeling of deep calmness. You can literally hallucinate while being completely sober with deep meditation. I feel like the elite knows a lot more about deep states of meditation. Mike Tyson for example was hypnotized before every fight and he was a beast in the cage. It can be dangerous sometimes, but there is a lot of untapped potential with meditation. There is more then meets the eye

"I like morning meditation more than late night drinking" I hope to reach that point in my life in one day, much respect to Russell Simmons
No longer respect
Me and you both...
i would have never guessed that he did all those drugs
+Eddie Heredia where you been this story is 30 years old
people do your research
joann dortch hey i was never interested in his personal life like that. when i saw the title of this videos i had to watch because i was surprised
Eddie Heredia ok but everybody already knew
thats exactly my point
@@jkdortch2308 stfu 7 billion people on earth aren’t gonna know about Russell Simmons
Stopped smoking at 23. Living a blessed and sober life.
Still my favorite interview. Caused a life change for me. Thanks Vlad for having Russell on.
They don't make em like this no more.
Nope:/
+D Cooke truth
+lemmieatit lol. and like the guy under you they will play dumb on the "white woman chasing" they like to phrase it " white woman love us" helps them sleep better at night after being black all their lives. 😅😂
if you look at this guy he's a drug addict
+lemmieatit 😂😂
goes to show how powerful he is to be able to conduct himself this way after abusing terrible drugs
EuphoriK mind over matter it’s not what u consume it’s how u consume it... what u consume can consume you... moderation is the key...
Jess Colliflower yes and no it’s mostly how strong your mindset is
Moderation but not with heroin. Heroin and moderation do not mix at all.
youd be surprised, even oprah used to smoke crack
coming here thinking he was just gunna say he only got high off weed ... but damn
Word ha
Lol
Worrdd
Me too
right
So much game dropped within a few minutes. Good ish!
-@BrownyBeatsTX
Denatra Lewis 100
I really appreciate this guys honesty, it gives you alot of insight on how those drugs can effect you
He gets happy af thinking about those drugs he did lol smh
Don't we all...
It's all good memories for him
The key is not to go overboard
Keep the business and high seperated
"I smoked a lot of that shit, regularly", smile, smile ... 😆 ... good man, I like him ... must aspire to him
As someone 3 years sober, I can see how you can still acknowledge you liked getting high/drunk/whatever, during that initial rush (no pun intended) but also acknowledge how much it fucked you up mentally/physically, was unsustainable, and ultimately caused a lot of suffering to yourself and others.
He got too excited when he started talking about how much PCP he smoked.. Then he kept bringin it up the whole interview.. He about to relapse
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😁
@Michaelveli9 he still got it in his system
Sure did! He needed it for those rituals.
He said relapse lmaoo
😂😂😂noooooo
dj vlad not even listening to the knowledge this guy is saying.
n I know right, he just thinking of his next question .
Apparently he doesn't listen to anyone and he doesn't know when someone is irritated with his question like mjw
My boy used to smoke primo back in the day and he dislocated his own pinky once, he thought it wasn't supposed to be there
Dammnnnn
😂
😂😂😂😂
C James 😂😂😂 (sorry)
FUCK! Okay, I'm good on normal weed hahaha
Dropped some supreme knowledge at the end 🔥🔥🔥 I love how he's a perfect balance of wise and ignorant
You can tell he misses smoking dust.
Jack Wade respect.
Alex Forseth I think you are wrong.
Me too!
He was the Beastie Boys manager. lol
Our manager's crazy
He always smokes dust
He's got his own room at the back of the bus.

And later it was "program fat basslines like Russell Simmons steals money"
Meditation is the answer.
how the hell do you do it?
The Watlingtons you don't. It's a non-doing. It's unplugging from going along with the minds ride.
I know its nothing compared to the drugs discussed in this vid but I stopped cigs after 6 years of smoking, with almost a pack a day in the last to years.

right

Y'all saw how Unc eyes lit up when he was talking about that pcp lmao!
Yea he was happy talking about that shit lol. That's how you he's really beyond the old negative ways, he funny asf

For the most part lol lol
your mind can be very quite when you have 100 M's in the bank!
True it could also be 100 million times more busy
He’s a billionaire
More money more problems
Big big facts
Perfect example of don't blame the drug, but blame the individual using the drug. Know how to say when people. Some people can do drugs and operate sufficiently, while others can't.
For a man who did drugs for a while he sure looks good at 62 now

I stopped getting high mid twenties...I got ish to do!
Wow I really like his interview really insightful my mind's always racing so this is very helpful
damn i never knew russell simmons was getting high like that!! he was bout that life lol
Big Lurch! Wow I remember when he use to live in Vacaville, CA . used to see him all the time... He was a dope rapper...
+Pudgey Locs Yeah, Cosmic Slop Shop. He has an interview on UA-cam, dude got it rough in the Pen.
oh shit i had no idea Russel Simmons was a fucking legit ass junkie
Lol......
Wouldn't say junkie. Junkies fuck their life away. This dude is one of the most successful persons in hip hop in the last 30-40 years. No junkie. I've come to realize that people can do drugs and still be functioning and successful. Although I don't condone it. Unless it's weed.

Powerful interview.
Cannabis is a meditation enhancer. I consider that to be like Catholics drinking wine.
absolutely
No it's not.
I'm sorry I am not haiter or something.
But I've been there, I've been thinking like this. While I was smoking weed. Unfortunately it is not like this at all.
Look more deeply into it.
One day you will know.
Only trying to help.
Thank you.
Aquatic Highs that's what I mean man.
Weed has no place in our system at all.
Weed it's not good for us.
It makes us believe that it is good but it isn't.
I know that from my own experience.

Just because your experience with marijuana wasn’t so pleasing doesn’t mean you should tell others it doesn’t belong in our bodies.
So there's 35 people who don't want peace of mind or just be a better person,very strange that there's dislikes on such a positive video.
"At what age do you think Slim Jesus will stop getting high?" -dj vlad
Yo mad respect for being honest russell
Fuck he was chasing the dragon..
Great message. Respect.
wake up, smoke weed, meditate, you're unstoppable for the rest of the day.
+KMFL that's not true. Smoke a good sativa and you will want to go on hike , learn new things, etc etc. now if you smoke indica you will be sleepy and that's what most regular people get on the streets because they think its cool to be lazy.
Thinker Haist wtf you need to learn your strains.
Marijuana is a hallucinogenic drug and it will have you walking around thinking you doing the right thing but you may be committing crimes
Good Game right here.. Definitely learning from his mistakes.
After talking about the chick that was eaten Russell got hungry 2:35
4:15 This was definitely an eye-opener
russell simons has been around 4eva!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
respect. Russel Simmons a real one.
He does not look nearly 60 at all!
Real shit Russ. Not many people know this. The heavenly mother obviously sees you deserving of this knowledge.

Lol he reminiscing about getting high 😂.
And people say drugs are bad lol. Russell Simmons is a wise man.
Very wise!
Russell is one cocky guy
I'm wondering why u say Cocky lol in this interview I got that he was real cool, chill and not preachy and snobby like most religious people

It never ceases to amaze me how very rich people always talk about how money doesn't make them happy.
Wow this is a new side of Russell. dude did some heavy shit back in the day
2:08 did he just say somebody smoked PCP and ate a girl's body??
great interview
