By Alejandra Vernon

Vitas has been my miracle. A lover of Russian culture, I typed "Russian music" into youtube 6 months ago. I saw this FACE and a red scarf. The rest is history. 13 CDs and hundreds of videos later, I am a new person.

Diagnosed with advanced cancer, I had been doing my best with diet and a good attitude, but Vitas was the key to my transformation. I also started yoga around the same time as I found Vitas, which has been very beneficial, but he is my impetus to keep going to class, to keep holding a difficult pose, to try a little harder. He is my inspiration for so much of my day that he has become an intrinsic part of me, a part of my very life force. I have also bought some new clothes, new eyeglasses, and started wearing a little make-up (yes this cost some money, but the money has come to cover these costs in the most surprising ways). I feel better, I look better, I AM better, to myself and to others.

Vitas says on his website to "receive the sea of positive emotions and joy" with his music, and this is what has happened to me. I am a ripple in his sea of love, a ripple that goes on to create other ripples. A chain reaction of love. Thank you Vitas for your incredible beauty of sound and presence, your great love. You are my bodhisattva.
