Hi, Iโm Elie. A 29-year-old woman, born and raised in a quiet city deep in the Caucasus Mountains.
Since childhood, the metaphysical world has whispered to me in symbols and dreams. I've had the rare grace to study consciousness both in the presence of great minds, through the books and the inner explorations of my psyche.
This channel is where I bring it all together. I donโt follow any one path. I made this channel with the idea of sharing the heart of intelligence and the intelligence of the heart. To create content for you has been really amazing. As many of you may have noticed, I take my time researching and writing each script. Once completed, the text is voiced by Ethan, a talented voice-over artist whose voice is available through ElevenLabs for automatic use. Ethan is a calm, reflective individual with a deep commitment to mindfulness and meditation. After that, I edit the video, incorporating artwork from various artists.
Always happy to answer your emails!

If you enjoy the videos but feel like the insights tend to fade after a few hours (happens even to the best of us..), you might want full access to the scripts behind all our content. Alongside them, you'll find additional materials that dive deeper into the ideas explored in the videos โ perfect for anyone who wants to reflect more and question further.

๐๐ก๐ "๐๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ซ๐จ๐๐ ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ค ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ" ๐๐ก๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฒ โ You can switch tracks and change the scenery, but the train is heading to the same destination no matter what.You can make choices, but they can only affect small detailsโmajor life events are set in stone. Similar to how an actor improvises within a movie.
๐๐ก๐ "๐๐ซ๐-๐๐จ๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ" ๐๐ก๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฒ โ You did have free will, but you already used it all before birth, setting up the entire course of your life before you even got here.Every decision youโll ever make was already locked in the moment you were born. You're just catching up.
๐๐ก๐ "๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ค๐๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ" ๐๐ก๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฒ โ You do have free will, but only sometimesโat random points, your consciousness goes into autopilot, and you become an NPC for hours or days without realizing it.
๐๐ก๐ "๐๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ" ๐๐ก๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฒ - Humans are seen as co-creators, capable of manifesting their own reality through intentional action and thought. In this worldview, the freedom to choose is part of the universal flow of energyโyou are an artist of your own life, and through your will, you can create new possibilities. The belief is that free will allows the mind to tap into higher planes of creativity and spiritual potential.

The Lucid Dreamer โ You begin to see that life is a construct. Awareness flickers, but ego still pulls you back.
The Paradox Walker โ You exist in contradictions. You know everything is an illusion, yet still live within it.
The Fractal Mind โ Reality is self-referential. You see infinite versions of yourself in everything.
The Zero Point โ Identity dissolves. No self, no other. Pure awareness, beyond even the need to "know."

The Mountain
This is a moment to pause, to acknowledge, and to celebrateโ20,000 of you who have chosen to hear what the mountain has to say. 20,000 of you. Thatโs 20,000 stories, 20,000 ways of seeing the world. A vast constellation of minds, each a flickering star, but the same sky holds us.
The aim of this channel is to expand our metacognition and ideological plasticity, play with ideas & thought experiments and evoke knowing beyond binary intellect. All this while having epistemic humility, recognizing the limitations of oneโs own knowledge and being open to alternative viewpoints, even when they challenge oneโs own beliefs.
We are limited, not by our abilities, but by our vision. There's an almost instinctual drive within us to immediately agree or disagree with a presented idea. We walk around mentally saying yes and no to everything around. It's a reflexโa mental ticโas though we fear the void between these two extremes. On this channel I invite you to create a space of play, to train our cognitive flexibility and paradoxical thinking. In Rumiโs timeless words : Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. Iโll meet you there.
When I started this channel exactly 1 year ago, I had no idea how much Iโd learn from your comments! Thank you for being here, for listening, for speaking back. Itโs a strange and beautiful thing, this connection weโve built. The mountain may stand still, but youโve made it feel alive.
