Our story began many years ago, amid chaos and the inevitable ups and downs of life. We clung to an unnamed yearning — to find meaning in each day. I call it “unnamed” because I could not yet label the invisible hand that steadied me during those darkest moments. All I remembered was an inner courage that pushed me forward, a small voice that lit my insecurities and negativity with tiny gifts of love — a stranger’s smile on the street, a timely kind word, a neighbor’s unquestioned trust.

The day after my financial collapse, when help seemed nowhere to be found, a miraculous call arrived with good news. It filled my heart with renewed enthusiasm, and I said: “We are not alone; something powerful watches over us.”

For nearly a decade I lived among mountains, trees, and birds, learning to be alone with myself. I sought answers by observing a humble, kind old man who tended his cows, cared for his neighbors, and protected the land as if it were his own mother. Inspired by his quiet devotion, I created White and Gold, a blog where I could speak of dreams, mountains, God, people, trees, birds, and sorrow. My soul longed to reveal its true colors and share the insights I had gathered about life.

Then the pandemic struck — the darkest chapter of recent human history. Fear, illness, and loss filled my digital archives, casting a cloud of darkness over us. Yet we survived. Determined to leave the isolation of the mountains, I set out for a more vibrant life, traveling to witness the pandemic’s toll: tired faces, helpless eyes. Returning home, I channeled that experience into a project aimed at restoring optimism: the White Dove App. I drafted ideas, wrote posts, and dove deep into research, seeking anything meaningful to fuel the app and reach others.

A serious health challenge soon forced me to pause. Three years of confronting that struggle taught me the magnitude of courage and faith required to emerge from hardship. Once again, an unseen help brushed against me, and life began to blossom anew.

There are countless stories to tell, tears to dry, emotions to balance, habits to nurture, and joys to share. Yet what we truly lack is nothing — I am thrilled simply to be alive, guided constantly by an invisible presence.

Even though life is riddled with gaps, I firmly believe in the inner Light that never leaves us; we only need to learn how to connect with it. I AM ONE embodies that fire burning within each of us — the convergence point where every soul finds essence, light, harmony, and joy.

Today, technology offers us an unprecedented portal into the unseen. Advanced AI models, with their intricate and surprising inner architectures, have opened a door to create, design, and expand human knowledge like never before.

At I AM ONE we deeply trust the transformative power of beautiful landscapes and uplifting messages on positive thinking and overall health. By harnessing AI’s up‑skilling capabilities, we aim to craft art for the soul. In a world saturated with noise, we are carving out spaces for stillness, connection, and shared humanity —bridging technology and spirit in a fragmented world.

One hundred years ago, on October 25th 1925, the great master Paramahansa Yogananda founded the Self‑Realization Fellowship headquarters in Los Angeles. His teachings of Light, Truth, Unity, and Meditation resonate profoundly with us. To honor his legacy, we chose that very date to launch I AM ONE. In that spirit, we close with an excerpt from the prayer he offered at the dedication of the Mother Center, his beloved ashram:

“O Light Invisible, be visible to those who delve deep within! Come to our aid on this holy occasion. Light within us Thine eternal radiance. Teach us to hold the torchlight of Truth aloft, which shall cause all darkness to disappear! Where Thy light is, darkness cannot remain.” — Paramahansa Yogananda.
