Logstash: Parse Complicated Multiline JSON from log file into ElasticSearch

Let me first say that I have gone through as many examples on here as I could that still do not work. I am not sure if it's because of the complicated nature of the JSON in the log file or not.

I am looking to take the example log entry, have Logstash read it in, and send the JSON as JSON to ElasticSearch.

Here is what the (shortened) example looks:

    ]
    }
}

The Logstash configs I have tried have not worked. The one closest so far is:

input {
    file {
        codec => multiline {
            pattern => '\{(.*)\}'
            negate => true
            what => previous
        }
        path => [ '/var/log/logstash.log' ]
        start_position => "beginning"
        sincedb_path => "/dev/null"
    }
}

filter {
    json {
        source => message
    }
}

output {
    stdout { codec => rubydebug }
    elasticsearch {
        cluster => "logstash"
        index => "logstashjson"
    }
}

I have also tried:

input {
    file {
        type => "json"
        path => "/var/log/logstash.log"
        codec => json #also tried json_lines
    }
}

filter {
    json {
        source => "message"
    }
}

output {
    stdout { codec => rubydebug }
    elasticsearch {
        cluster => "logstash"
        codec => "json" #also tried json_lines
        index => "logstashjson"
    }
}

I just want to take the JSON posted above and send it "as is" to ElasticSearch just as if I did a cURL PUT with that file. I appreciate any help, thank you!

UPDATE

After help from Leonid, here is the configuration I have right now:

input {
    file {
        codec => multiline {
            pattern => "^\["
            negate => true
            what => previous
        }
        path => [ '/var/log/logstash.log' ]
        start_position => "beginning"
        sincedb_path => "/dev/null"
    }
}

filter {
    grok {
        match => { "message" => "^(?<rubbish>.*?)(?<logged_json>{.*)" }
    }
    json {
        source => "logged_json"
        target => "parsed_json"
    }
}

output {
    stdout {
        codec => rubydebug
    }
    elasticsearch {
        cluster => "logstash"
        index => "logstashjson"
    }
}
