At age five, Bruce Joel Rubin had a spiritual experience playing in a sandbox in the middle of the afternoon. The sun disappeared, and a dense night sky appeared in its place. Infinite galaxies were swirling in the vastness of his own head, and he sensed the entire universe was contained within him.
He knew instantly he was one with all there was. In the years that followed, Bruce became an Oscar-winning screenwriter (GHOST 1990), a spiritual teacher, and, most recently, a photographer. Each aspect of his life has been a conscious effort to explore and reveal what he learned in that sandbox.
Bruce was born in the middle of WWII and raised in Detroit, Michigan, the son of Sondra and Jimmy Rubin. He has a younger brother and sister, Gary and Marci. There was very little remarkable about him. He wanted to be an actor, writer, and director but had no talent to speak of.
In 1965, he took a massive (and accidental) overdose of LSD and began a journey that lasted between 3 and 4 billion years. When he returned, he knew he would have stories to tell. He also knew he needed to find a teacher, so he hitchhiked around the world for nearly two years in search of one.
After living in ashrams in India and in a Tibetan monastery in Kathmandu, he met his teacher Rudi in New York City blocks from where he had begun his journey. Rudi taught a meditation practice that became the foundation for Bruce’s spiritual life. He has meditated every day since.
Bruce’s screenwriting career began late in his life. Earlier, he had been an assistant film editor for the NBC Nightly News, curator, and head of the film department at the Whitney Museum in New York. When Rudi died, Bruce gave up his museum career to continue his spiritual practice with a disciple of Rudi’s in Bloomington, Indiana.
While there, he was also writing movies, twice locking himself in a hotel room and refusing to emerge without a finished script. He also began teaching meditation to an expanding community of fellow seekers and continues holding classes to this day.
Please enjoy my conversation with Bruce Joel Rubin.

Impressed with both of them in this interview. Wow. 🙏👍🏻 May be the interview I like the most! And there are plenty of good interviews and interviewees on this channel.
Ghost is one of the best and most powerful movies ever made. One of those ‘stays with us’ for life. Thank you❤❤❤

Only half way thru so far but enjoying it.
"Trust the Journey" I'm gong to use that phrase as much as I can from now on. So grateful I found this channel and those who have been on it.❤
What an extraordinary modest and gifted guest Bruce is, what an example to us all. He truly walks his talks! Love and gratitude❤❤
My father after he was dead, he kontacted through a medium and said that movie Goust shows pretty well what happens when you die.I just love this film.Thank you so much. 🙏💓
I love Alex and his guest so much!! My day isn’t the same if I miss meditation or an episode so thanks for the work you continue to do for myself and the world ❤️

This channel brings me so much hope! I’m a new mom and hearing all this talk of apocalyptic events in the future had me paralyzed, but you and your guests provide a much needed new perspective on the beautiful opportunities that are unfolding. So appreciate you and your guests, Alex

From one mom to another, do not fear. The love for your child radiates and shines and affects all around you in ways you don't even know. Focus on the good and all will be well.

@@Woo_Woo_WomanI admire your pie in the sky attitude. Wish I had that going on.
I am unable to say how meaningful this episode was/is for me. (Of course, I'll try anyway.) The "9 years, 9 months, 9 days, 9 hours, 9 minutes, 9 seconds" offered as processing lessons resonates so profoundly. Thank you for the wisdom.
Beautiful video, brought tears to my eyes. The love was abundant here. Thank you!
I love that he said talk to the world.
Another repeat. Please mark them as such. Some of us have been here from the start 😂❤

JL and Ghost def 2 of my fav films of all time🙏and today I finally meet the soul who wrote it!!! Thank you❤️🙏🌹🌈
Whenever you do something for the whole, God will reward you, beyond what you had imagined! ☮️💜🙏✨
This is one of the best episodes of Next Level Soul.. top 10 for sure
May god protect You Alex
Thank you Bruce 🙏🏻 You are a powerful light and I appreciate you 🙏🏻
❤love you all my friends❤
We are ALL God, every one of us
Yes…the reward of your impact in the world comes later in life and is very humbling as you don’t expect it🙏❤️🌹🌈
Great job! Tears in multiple segments of the video. Definitely heartfelt. Both of you keep doing your dance. We are all blessed by it. 🙏❤☀️
That's one of the best things for me when writing... the surprises that happen... being the characters... laughing, crying, loving... the miracle of it...
The totality of his work is, indeed, the Masterpiece he was instructed to create! Thank you so much for this incredibly inspired and inspiring interview.
I LOVED "JACOB'S LADDER".
Thank you Both Gentlemen! Bruce, you said something’s that opened my mind . Trust the Journey
My favorite movie is GHOST. Thank you sir.
Bruce Joel Rubin thank you for bringing depth of Light and love.
Very helpful for my future desires to bring good in this world thank you
Thank I Alex. Living in South Africa, your videos are a breath of fresh air.
Loved watching Alex in his element ❤️ talking about film and producing.
I would've LOVED to hear more recounting of that journey to The Void and back! There aren't many who can tell that story, bc most who die THAT far don't come back to tell about it. Michael Harner described his journey into death on Plant Medicine in The Way of the Shaman and it was MIND -BLOWING.
Bless you for blssing us with Ghost my favorite movie of all time. An absolute masterpiece. Cant tell you how many times ive watched it.incredible🙏🙏🙏
Bruce is an amazing teacher and human being, thank you for this wonderful conversation!
❤ what a wonderful conversation! Delighted that some of us baby-boomers followed their inner journey. Thank you for sharing. Ty both! 🕊️💕✨
This episode was absolutely amazing i could and probably will listen to it again love n light from Bonnie Scotland ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wonderful dialogue. Lesson is also there is audience for spiritual creations.🌝⭐️🌸
This interview was PHENOMENAL!! Easily in the top 5 of Alex’s videos!
I loved this episode, it was very different, but throughout there were hidden messages for us to use in our life. At least that was what I got out of it. Thanks again Alex
Yup, Ghost is a masterpiece! ❤
I now see that Patrick Swayze was the person who wanted Whoopi...wow... The powers did not even want her to audition for Ghost...It is wonderful to hear Mr. Rubin admit that.
Truth cannot be denied, it’s beautiful and effects everyone ✨🌈🙏 when there’s nothing it’s easier for energy to rise and flow, let go let “God” 🙏
Wow ! The best of the best interviews. Bravo !
I looooove your show!!!!❤❤❤❤
Now, that's an honest man! I totally got what he was talking about. Really got a lot from this interview. Good stuff!
Oncore airing of one of the most meaningful interviews you have ever presented, Alex. I enjoyed it as much as the first time you aired this conversation with Bruce. I follow him on his website and KZread channel. He is as real as one gets. Thank You, for sharing this again. Blessings 🕊💕😇🙏🏻💚
I love the budda and the bears❤
🌹BLESSINGS🌹ALL GRATITUDE 4 THESE WORDS here🌹Sincerely🌹Thank U 🌹
Thank you so very much. ❤❤❤❤❤l am so delighted by the people you interview and I always share most of them with friends.
Thank you so much for this interview. This was a jaw dropping and tear making interview.
Loved this! I love his humility ♥️ Thank you Alex! ❤
Love Alex and all his guests. Bruce is particularly special.
I will order and immediately read this autobiography. He is writing. Talk about experience! Plus all of the jobs he’s done. I hope it comes out soon. Soon soon.
Alex and Bruce, thanks for th io s wonderful interview!! Blessings.
Fascinating interview on so many levels ! Thank you Alex !
Ghost-- one of my fave films. Thank you.
I remember watching that Michael Keaton movie when I was young, and I thought it was beautiful.
The wraiths who come for the forsaken are the way I experienced psychosis. Never ending entwining and entangling creation. ❤
Yes Bruce The energy of the Monks was truly embedded in the movie The Last Mimzy”.
Awesome Interview and conversation! So nice to hear the simplicity of deep truths. Thanks to you both for bringing such meaningful lessons to my journey.
BE JOY like the child does
This is a great interview! What a precious man!
Aww during my trip I spent lifetimes on the other side. It was such a bliss and joy and incredible 🥰🥰🥰 Wonderful to know that I am not the only one who took such a heroic dose. It can be quite dangerous but it is incredible and beyond beautiful. Can't wait to finish this episode. Just started it but had to comment already 😅
Amazing, conversation between you you and this humble, extremely influential writer. Thank-you for inviting this special guest to bring everything together regarding Hollywood and the film industry. He said get out of your own way,,, that is the answer. Get out of your own ego! Incredible things will happen when you get the heck out your own way... things will happen for you that are more meaningful and exceptional than you could ever believe for yourself.♥️
Thank you! Loved this interview and didn't want it to end. I hope you are able to get Bruce back on again soon. Love & Light to all. 🥰💖
It was a great message and deeply appreciated. Thank you, Alex and Mr. Rubin!
Ahh, a kindred spirit. Time to relax and go with it. This happened to me when I was 8yrs old in Belmont CA on heads hill it began.
Thank you, Mr Rubin for your contributions, and teachings through film. I have recommended, My Life, many times to people so that they may understand that holding on to heavy emotions will eventually manifest as illness in the physical body. 💜
THIS STORY IS INCREDIBLE!! How mind blowing!! Truly inspiring! 🙏 Thank you for sharing your experiences and thank you as always to the lovely Alex 🙏
I got more out of his interview watching it for the second time... simply amazing guest and treasured teaching...WOW. thank you for all your inspiring movies and words.
ALEX! Can you slow down on your episodes? I can’t get anything done!!! 😆 😊

WWG1WGA is from a phrase read from a ship's bell by a character in the 1996 movie White Squall. The phrase itself means "Where one of us goes, we will go together," or "We will go together with any one of our members."
Great interview! ❤
Sending so much love to both of you gentlemen and the entire universe ❤❤
Thank you! Just what I needed today. ❤
Done! Wow! Amazing interview. Perception is literally everything!
Thani you both gentlemen 🙏❤️🍀 grtz from the Netherlands 🇪🇬
Amazing👏👏👏👏👏
Second time listening to this interview and I'm getting more out of it. I've subscribed to Mr. Rubin's channel after listening to this and just one of his videos. Thanks so much, Alex!
Wow the best one yet I'll listen again and again. He became my teacher through this podcast, right at the time when I`'m just beginning to get control of reacting emotionally/defensiely, Letting go and stop fighting against my intuition when it's telling me what I` don't want to hear. Perfect timing.
❤ Love Bruce Joel Rubin. I was in his meditation group in LA many years ago.
Great show! I love it! Thank you both.❤❤❤❤❤
Waking up to your new video is great😊
So Interesting. This is the only place I find such people.
Alex, I know your heart and you are a gift to the world. I also know what it's like to take a psychedelic drug and not be able to explain what happened. It's something I WOULD recommend to anyone with an adventuresome spirit. It's why I know I am in this world but not of it. This world is my playground that I asked for as a child. My goal in life is to die laughing.
Fascinating conversation... Only Alex could have done justice to this interview.....loved it ❤
I from Argentina and Ghost was very deep on me, thank you, both of you, 🙏💞
I love his wisdom ❤
What an amazing interview. Bruce is such an inspiration on so many levels !
Beautiful conversation xxx
I loved ‘My Life’ as it resonated in the human experience. ❤️
🎉🎉🎉 thank you so much ❤❤❤
Bring Bruce back please
Wonderful interview! Such an interesting human, thank you so much! xoxo
Ghost was my favorite movie at the time . I got the dvd free from McDonlds in Oakland, Ca. I don't know if it was a Nationwide thing, or not, but I absolutely loved the thing!
really enjoyed this. very expansive. thank you both!
We have experiences so we know god is pure love , that’s blots out all other things , so you know he is most high , and so we share with others
Well! I know what movies I’m watching tonight!
All these things in its simplest form, as the thread that you have mentioned continue to flow through the mind of others. It’s all good it’s meant to be great show.
He exploded with lsd, me with meditation. ❤️ Thank you Alex.
