The Eternal Path is the path each of us walks. At a certain moment in life we realize that we are striving for something higher than ourselves. We see that there is something greater than us — or at least we want to find it.
The Eternal Path is the path of seeking. It is the path from ignorance to truth, from weakness to strength, from darkness to light, from hatred to love — the path we are all walking.
This project is here to help everyone who wishes to awaken or has already awakened, and who wants to follow the eternal path — the path they may once have walked before and will most likely walk in the future.
The goal of this project is to make true sacred knowledge accessible, clear and simple, so that it is easy to apply to your own life, to your own path.
This project is a place where ancient scriptures meet modern technology: spirituality that is simple, accessible and a joy for everyone.
What You Will Learn: Meditation, Mantras, Prayer and Energy Practices
The project will include teaching materials on all the foundations of spirituality, on different practices, on different religions and traditions, and on every aspect of practice: meditation, mantras, prayer, study. Also — magic, runes and tarot, working with energy: every practice that can bring benefit and healing to a person.
Here you will find practices, courses, mobile apps, as well as videos and inspiring stories.
Free Spiritual Practice for Everyone, Everywhere
The goal of the project is for every person, whatever their current situation, to have the opportunity to walk the spiritual path.
The foundations of Eternal Path — the basic practices and the main elements of the path — will be free. More advanced practices will be paid, for those who are interested.
The essence and purpose of the project is for every being to be able to develop themselves: to become smarter, purer, wiser, to gain abilities and to work for the good of themselves, their loved ones, their children and our whole universe.
Based on Ancient Scriptures: the Bible, the Sutras and Sanskrit Texts
The project relies mainly on primary sources, and also on the books of genuine masters, including modern ones.
Nothing here is invented by me. Every practice and every article gives its sources in detail. My task is only to organize, summarize and present it in an accessible way.
Who I Am
My name is Alex. I am not your guru, and I am not your teacher. I am simply a person who wants to live a worthy life, who studies and tries to do everything in my power for the good of the universe and for the good of all beings.
I also actively practise myself: low and high magic, shamanism, tantra, inner work, energy work, internal alchemy.
I have also worked in information technology for more than 10 years. I have the skills, knowledge and understanding to use modern technologies professionally, and I use this ability for good — for example, by creating this project and my apps.
Do You Need a Guru? You Don't Need to Believe Me
If you ask yourself: "Why should I believe Alex and his practices?" — my answer is: you don't need to believe me. You don't need to believe anyone. Any blind faith without conviction is a mistake. Whatever you do, you should check it yourself and become convinced of everything yourself.
In all the articles and practices I share here, I will refer to the sources, the tradition and the scriptures. And you will be able to check everything and become convinced of everything yourself.
One of your main tasks is to learn to tell truth from lies. Once you understand how to do this, then using this principle you will be able to understand everything, build your own practice, completely rebuild your life and make it what you believe it should be for you personally.
The first lesson is "How to Recognize the Truth" — how to tell truth from lies on the spiritual path. We will talk about it in the next article.

"Please, Kālāmas, don't go by oral transmission, don't go by lineage, don't go by testament, don't go by canonical authority, don't rely on logic, don't rely on inference, don't go by reasoned train of thought, don't go by the acceptance of a view after deliberation, don't go by the appearance of competence, and don't think 'The ascetic is our respected teacher.'"
