About Virkee
The purpose of Virkee is to help people live a full, vibrant life by empowering them to master their own minds. The message to do that is simple. Once you receive this message, you take a giant step forward in your journey.
This site was created by a Finnish software developer named Petri Peltola, who is also the ‘I’ in the texts. He has been practicing self-development as a hobby for more than 20 years and loves it. More than half of this practice involved self-help and positive psychology, which he ultimately found not very helpful. The reason for this became clear in 2016 when he discovered the subject provided here, which leads to mastering one’s own mind: the mind cannot be mastered using the mind; it requires a standpoint outside of the mind. This led to the realization that ‘I am not my mind’ and discovering who the ‘I’ really is. This, in turn, led to the realization that when the ‘I’ isn’t captured by the mind, using one’s full potential becomes truly possible.
Other persons who have influenced this site are my two teachers. They have both been practicing the subject provided here for decades, one for more than 20 years and the other for 40 years.
We are passionate about discussing this subject, but rather than seeing ourselves as coaches, teachers, gurus or spiritual guides, we consider ourselves messengers. Once we deliver the message to you, we believe it contains all the knowledge you need to master your own mind. From there, the key is to practice based on that knowledge to truly unlock your potential and live full, vibrant life.
The name ‘Virkee’ comes from Finnish word ‘virkeä’ meaning vibrant person.
Artificial intelligence is used for media creation and grammar checking on this site. But you and I are still humans.

By the way, I asked ChatGPT to tell me a joke about AI and mastering the mind:
Why did the AI start meditating?
Because it wanted to master its own mind before mastering all of humanity's jobs! 😄
AI knows it all—even that the quality of its actions improves when it can master its mind. 😄
