A Brilliant Life in Darkness
I absolutely have to tell you about Alexander Suvorov, whom I have met several times and who has been my hero and inspiration for many years. Alexander Suvorov became totally blind and deaf when he was three years old. Nevertheless, he was so eager to live his life to the fullest that he learned to speak and to understand what other people were saying by holding their hands.
Suvorov graduated from high school with honors and acquired a PhD at Moscow University. He wrote dozens of brilliant books on philosophy and countless scientific articles about helping blind and deaf children. While having been unable to view only a single movie himself before his blindness, Suvorov created three engaging documentaries about his perception of life.
I recall the presentation of his first film. It attracted huge crowds in Moscow in the 1970s. People were deeply impressed by Suvorov’s sincerity and passion. I remember that after the movie was over, nobody left the theater for a long time. We just sat there bewildered, sobbing, and ashamed of our cowardly lives and stupid fears. Alexander Suvorov, who had been living his life in physical darkness and constant silence, had a dream to travel to other countries. So he learned two foreign languages and traveled to several countries on his own. When people asked him why he went, he replied that he wanted “to see the world for himself.”
Since publishing my book Green For Life in 2004, I have been receiving countless requests from my readers to learn more about this amazing man. Until now all of the movies were in Russian and unavailable. Recently, RT-TV presented a 25-minute documentary of Alexander Suvorov in English. By the way, I emailed my book “Green for Life” in Russian to Alexander Suvorov and he read it in brail and began drinking green smoothies. If you watch this short and inspiring documentary, you may notice a blender in the middle of Suvorov’s kitchen table on minute, 20:06.
