Today’s reading was edited and adapted from the writings of Nikola Tesla.

“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration.”

“The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and yet be quite insane.”

“The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence.”

 “If your hate could be turned into electricity, it would light up the whole world.”

“Be alone, that is the secret of invention. Be alone, that is when ideas are born.”

“My brain is only a receiver. In the Universe, there is a core from which we obtain knowledge, strength, and inspiration. I have not penetrated into the secrets of this core, but I know that it exists.”

“What we now want is closer contact and a better understanding between individuals and communities all over the earth, and the elimination of egoism and pride, which is always prone to plunge the world into primeval barbarism and strife... Peace can only come as a natural consequence of universal enlightenment.”

“Everyone should consider their body as a priceless gift from one whom they love above all — a marvelous work of art, of indescribable beauty, and a mystery beyond human conception, one so delicate that a word, a breath, a look, nay, a thought may injure it.”
