To read: The Architecture of a Thought.
This is about a very special subject: Intuitive Intelligence. Not as a mystical ability, but as a living technology, cultivated and refined for centuries on the Balkans and in the world.
I am Elena Buran an independent researcher, formed by both the Balkan tradition and Russian spiritual practice. My own life has been a journey — from a lineage rooted in Montenegro, through Russia and Kazakhstan, and now back to my ancestral homeland. My mission is to share the living path of intuition, a way of knowing our world needs now more than ever.
Here, we will explore intuition as a mature, proven methodology for discovering solutions that rational or emotional approaches alone cannot reach. We will learn how to “read” reality, find hidden connections, and see the invisible architecture that others miss.
This wisdom is often encoded in symbols and stories, easily misunderstood by more linear cultures. Just as you can only read a complex ornament if you understand its inner logic, you can only grasp intuitive thinking if you can tune into its frequency.
Today, I want to show you this in action.
The Case: The King’s Secret
We’ll look at a remarkable fragment from a Croatian television interview, where a Balkan researcher, Domagoj Nikolić, presents his vision for finding the lost tomb of Alexander the Great.
Our real focus is not the tomb itself — that is a matter for shovels and resources. Our focus is on the method. We will witness the beautiful, flowing logic of an intuitive mind at work. This, I believe, is a feast for those who think in patterns.
Let’s listen to the original fragment in Croatian. Then, I’ll guide you through an analysis, so you can experience how an intuitive mind sees.
What makes this so special? The researcher isn’t looking for the obvious — gold, crowns, inscriptions. Instead, his mind operates on a different level.
He Reads the Invisible Architecture.
Domagoj looks for hidden connections: star patterns, legends, place names, linguistic echoes. His thinking is not linear; it weaves a web of meaning, like an ornament, connecting what seems unrelated. He demonstrates intellectual courage, daring to question historical dogma and suggesting that our ancient sources might be more literal than we think. He is not passive or nostalgic. He is a seeker, researcher, constructor of new links.
He invites us not to consume history, but to re-weave it, to “read the ornament” and find what is lost to the rational eye. It’s Sherlock Holmes investigating a case written by James Bond — but instead of secret codes, we find cosmic geometry and hidden language in the landscape. His thinking is holistic — not following a straight line,
He sees Alexander not as a static figure, but as a living center of meaning, a “crossroads” where cultures, stories, and symbols meet.
This approach — seeing the invisible structure behind the visible world — is what I call the ornamental mind. It allows us to sense what is hidden, to reconstruct what is lost, to find solutions where others see only mystery or chaos.
And this is the heart of intuitive intelligence: the ability to read the world as a living ornament, where everything is connected, and every secret leaves a sign — but only for those who know how to see.
This method perfectly mirrors the mind of Domagoj’s subject, Alexander the Great. Alexander didn’t just conquer lands; he united worlds — cultures, languages, philosophies — by seeing the “whole,” not just the parts.
If we take a look at The Profile of Alexander’s Intelligence (Through Domagoj’s Lens) we see Signs of Intuitive Intelligence
In the first place, it’s Strategic Vision and Unification:
He managed, in only twelve years, to create a great state that connected the Balkans to the Indus and Egypt… He changed beliefs, expanded horizons, connected people, languages, races. Alexander used translators between himself and the Greeks — a symbol of “speaking a different language” (literally and intellectually). He was a master of roles — king, seeker, “child of God” — and understood that true power lies not in what is shown, but in what is hidden. He was the first to give up his kingly persona — not simply to die, but to continue under a new name, in a new story.
He wished to be buried where he would be alone before God, not as a king but as a man. Not in public glory, but in secret, where only one who understands the code could find him.
Now, Thinking in Symbols.
Domagoj isn’t just a researcher; he is a “reader” of a message left by a kindred spirit. He sees Alexander’s tomb not as a prize to be dug up, but as a secret waiting for one who speaks its symbolic language.
This brings us to the heart of his discovery. Let me read a key quote, first in its native melody, and then in English.
“Na dan kada je rođen Aleksandar Makedonski, u trenutku izlaska sunca, sazviježđe Kasiopeja stoji potpuno okomito iznad ovog geoglifa ovdje u Makedoniji…”
In English:
“On the day Alexander the Great was born, at sunrise, the constellation Cassiopeia stands perfectly upright above this geoglyph, here in Macedonia…”
Let’s pause on that. This is the core of the intuitive method. It’s not about brute-force searching; it’s about finding the point of resonance, the perfect alignment between sky and earth, myth and land, inner and outer.
This alignment is no coincidence. The constellation Cassiopeia, with its distinct “W” shape, is one of the brightest in the northern sky. But for the ancient mind, it was more than just a pattern of stars.
Across ancient Europe — from the Balkans to the Etruscans and Celts — the ‘W’ was a royal symbol. It was the crown, the gateway between worlds, the seat of power. When Domagoj points to Cassiopeia, he’s invoking an ancient code for royalty, wisdom, and the presence of the sacred.
And perhaps this ancient symbol echoes even today. Did you ever wonder why the word “wisdom” begins with a “W”? The “W” stands at the entrance of the word, like a threshold. What follows is “dom,” echoing the ancient roots for “home” or “dome” — a sacred space where paths converge.
So “wisdom” isn’t just knowledge. It’s the home of understanding, the dome under which intuition and experience are made whole. To seek wisdom is not just to collect knowledge, but to build a home where all the threads of meaning, intuition, and tradition can meet and flourish.
The researcher makes it clear that the secret was intentional. As he says:
“Grob Aleksandra nije skriven kao što ljudi misle zbog straha ili bogatstva, nego zato što je tako ostavljena poruka. Prava tajna uvijek čeka onoga koji zna čitati znakove.”
In translation:
“Alexander’s tomb is not hidden out of fear or for its riches, as people think, but because it was left as a message. The real secret always waits for those who know how to read the signs.”
This is the essence of what I call “ornamental thinking.” It is the ability to see that the visible is only a shadow of the invisible, and to connect both. It’s not enough to search for gold. As Domagoj concludes:
“Moraš čitati krajolik, slušati imena, brojati zvijezde i shvatiti tko si ti u toj priči. Tada će ti se otvoriti put.”
In English:
“You have to read the landscape, listen to the names, count the stars, and understand who you are in the story. Only then will the path open for you.”
The real message is not a location, but a way of seeing — and a way of being.
The very fact that Domagoj’s reasoning ‘fits’ with Alexander’s hidden logic is proof of the kinship between two intuitive minds, separated by centuries, yet united by the same language of symbols.
Intuitive intelligence is not just a talent — it is a mature method for solving unsolvable problems.
And Why do I bring you this example? Because intuitive intelligence is not just a Balkan phenomenon. It is a universal human potential, and a vital one for our times. But to unlock it, we need living examples, clear explanations, and a space where this way of thinking is honored.
This is my mission with this channel:
To show you how intuition works as a practical technology.
To translate and decode real cases from the Balkans and beyond.
To inspire you to recognize and cultivate your own intuitive intelligence.
If this resonates with you — if you want to see not just with your eyes, but with your whole mind — you are in the right place.
