The performer of the hit “London – Paris” liked to have fun with friends. He could have several parties a week, he often performed. Lately, however, Heraclius prefers to spend time alone. The artist moved from Spain to Batumi. Pirtskhalav’s house is located on the outskirts of the city and is surrounded by nature. There the singer writes new compositions and also prays.
The graduate of the Star Factory project explained that he himself came to faith. He suffered a severe shock, but he is grateful for it.
“I didn’t come to it through chatter, my soul just felt it: when miracles happened, when there were life trials, when I was hanging on by a thread. I do not condemn agnostics or those who do not believe. How to condemn them? They weren’t in clinical death, but I was. And it was at home, it was mega cool, “Irakli assured.
According to the singer, his life changed a few years ago. Then Pirtskhalava lived in Moscow. Work and parties took their toll on the star’s body, which failed. One day Heraclius was talking to his mother who was sitting across from him. Suddenly Heraclius fell ill. The artist leaned back. His eyes were wide, his body was shaking.
The artist then saw a dark corridor and followed it up. He ended up in a space where he became “mega gross and scared”. This state did not last long. Very soon Pirtskhalava experienced peace, a rush of strength, and then he heard a question addressed to him.
“There was grace. Suddenly, a deep fatherly voice asked me: “So, are you staying?”. I don’t think anyone has a choice there, but they gave me such an opportunity. I suddenly realized what all the little things in life are: cars, money, apartments. Even my mother, whom I saw from the side with feelings. I wanted to tell her: “What are you, everything is fine here,” said Irakli on HI-FI streaming “Sound”.
He almost stayed up, but he couldn’t leave his mother. After a while, the singer opened his eyes and felt water running down his head. He was hospitalized. Doctors named two probable causes of what happened: a microstroke or clinical death. Relatives came to the hospital in Irakli and then took him to Optina Pustyn. There he met the elders.
