"Everything in me that longs for something bigger than earth finds its home in God. He is more real to me than life itself." Vihan Damaris
This Earth Xperience explores faith, identity and the intimate process of understanding who you are through the One who created you. Vihan Damaris shares how her rebellious years, her questions about truth and her unexpected spiritual encounters shaped her relationship with God. She talks about the moment she realized she was living through stories that were not her own, the prayer that shifted her direction, the miracle of a squirrel that led her to what she had lost and the forty day fast that revealed her limits and her need for God.
We explore what it means to grow up in India surrounded by many belief systems and how Vihan’s family came to faith through a direct encounter that transformed their lineage. She reflects on seasons when she drifted from God and the journey of coming back with honesty, hunger and curiosity. She explains how Scripture, music and personal experience helped her rebuild a relationship that feels real and present.
Our conversation also moves into the space where creativity and spirituality meet. Vihan explains how God asked her to sing only for Him and how that yes led her into a world of songwriting, artistry and spiritual growth. Music became a place of revelation, a tool for understanding Scripture and a language for communion with God. She also shares how she navigated psychology classes that dismissed spiritual experiences and how she held onto what she knew to be true.
