A Russian video blogger called Serzh Dur Dachnik created this masterpiece years ago. I don’t proactively follow Russian content, however, TikTok algorithm made sure a short clip of this monologue in English found me.

Serzh, short for Sergei perhaps, is walking to a river somewhere in Russia to enjoy a sunset. What Serzh shares in a couple of minutes is what takes folks decades of meditation, Buddhist study and/or structured psychedelic explorations to realise.

As someone in the comments says: “first you laugh at his videos, then you think about his videos, then you agree with him, then you find yourself walking to the river, then you are river.” 😊 Full video in Russian can be found here.

PS: Russians often use swearing as a literary form, so both videos have heavy swearing in them, albeit AI seems to have removed most of it during translation into English.
