Who am I?

Light

The Proof

How do I know
I’m the light?
Through the reflection
Of the light that
Illuminates your eyes
When you look at me.

How do you know
You’re the light?
Through the reflection
Of the light that
Illuminates my eyes
When I look at you.


Now we both know
We’re the light.


We both know
That we are ONE.


If you seek a simple proof;


“Let it be the light!”

My Book

In the 'Why, How, and What of Existence', Vlad opens up the possibility of direct communication with the Supreme Self, who, in a conversation, communicates to him the ultimate truths of existence. Through extreme curiosity and his strong will, he penetrates behind a veil where there is a hidden insight. The insight, guarded by a fear of death, is who we are in truth. Using basic logic, he attempts to explain what cannot be explained, blending it into a wheel symbol, which in his view best illustrates this fundamental principle of our existence.
