Thanks Matt, this clears up so much for me. I was bigly into questioning orthodox science when young. I had read a book on Tesla and avoided learning more because he seemed to be an obsessive person. Being afraid of obsessiveness in myself lead me to ignore him for a decade. When I did examine him more this first thing I found out was that we shared a birthday, one hundred years apart. So then I did examine him more but fortunately very little came of it. Great work, ones associations can be quite revealing.

I knew he lived in a hotel but not that he lived in a penthouse at Waldorf-Astoria from 1900-1919, i did a quick search and found out that normal room rate during 19'00s in Waldorf-Astoria was 20 dollars which is equivalent to 348 dollars per night in today's value, could not find the price of penthouse at Waldorf-Astoria during that time but now it cost 15, 000 dollars a night, yes that's fifteen thousand dollars :)

It's certainly interesting, though it's also interesting that Tesla still had connections to the Serbian Orthodox Church. In 1938, he was one of the sponsors of the new church building for St. Sava Orthodox Church in Gary, Indiana. I think I read in an offline source that the hall for the church was built with Tesla's funding. I suppose it's also somewhat interesting, too, that a bust of Tesla was created in 2007 to sit in the "forecourt" of St. Sava Cathedral in NYC. When the church experienced a huge fire in 2016, the Tesla bust was one of the few things that survived. I can't say what was in the man's heart, and yes, it seems he had some questionable friends, but as I'm poking around looking into this a bit, some of his quotes about Christianity and the universality of things make a lot more sense in the context of the Orthodox Church, even more than, say, Buddhism.

Just like there is a deep gnostic current directed by ancient mystery cults embedded within the Vatican, you'll find that the orthodox church is not immune. It's a rather big problem. Haven't done the work on Tesla's father or whatever networks he was affiliated with, but it's something to hold in mind

Thanks for these revelations about Nikola Tesla. Regarding your tangential comments about early conservationists, I don't doubt their intentions were less than altruistic, but would caution against throwing out the baby with the bath. Neither "development" nor "conservation" is inherently good or bad, but each can be done in a balanced way that serves humanity. Greedy, unfettered capitalist land speculators can wreak havoc with development. And conservation done thoughtfully near cities or farther away but accessible to the public can play a vital role in promoting good health, offering hands-on learning about natural phenomena, and uplifting spirits with pristine beauty.

I live in a heavily populated area east of San Fransisco flanked by dozens of regional parks that are protected from urban development. We routinely vote to tax ourselves to maintain them, and they are amply used by people of all ages and demographics for a multitude of outdoor recreational and educational activities. As an added bonus, certain areas of these parks--grassy hills that are green in winter and spring, then brown in summer and fall--are made available to ranchers for judicious amounts of cattle grazing, thus contributing to our food system and mitigating wild fire dangers. It's all about balance!

It's all about top down intention. I think nature conservation is fine. And many conservationists were fine people. The problem is the top down intention, design and purpose of the oligarchists who used this in India to block 2/5's of British India's land from human development and then how this strategy was deployed into the governing echelons of the USA by the deep state to intentionally make sure the plans for opening up the continent to real progress would be subverted and a new gaia religion premised on a strict anti-humanism and occultism would find more fertile soil. There is an excellent 50 min documentary on some of this which I'd HIGHLY recommend called 'To Conserve Man'. Essential viewing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKm9bPAqWac&t=4s

Thank you for this clarification and the video link, Matthew. Top down is the problem, indeed! It's conservationists who are caught up in an imperial-oligarchical-controlling mindset that lead us astray. Same goes for development advocates caught up in that mindset. So we need to first empower the intelligence and creativity of the grass roots from the bottom up, while cultivating leaders driven by authentic love of humanity and a deep reverence for both the utility and incredible beauty of our natural surroundings to be utilized thoughtfully, shared and enjoyed for the uplift of all people now and in future generations.

BTW, you might like this foundational book by a friend of mine, "Tending the Wild" https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520280434/tending-the-wild documenting the many ways the indigenous peoples of California, rather than just live off what they could hunt or gather as we've been told, systematically modified aspects of their natural habitats in ingenious ways to improve their quality of life.

I read the poem twice and thought it sounded gay

Thanks Matt, This series is fascinating. I wonder if Elon Musk is knowledgeable about Tesla and if Elon is playing some joke on us using Tesla’s name for his company and car.

Expand full comment

In my assessment: Elon is Tesla. Nearly identical profile with an attraction to occultists and everything. It's a bit of a sick joke.

Elon has 10 kids and has repeatedly called for population increase. Wild pitch. I'm not waving flags for Elon except pointing out that's just one of the many immense differences with Tesla. Jeeeez Louise- great research but you often make out of bounds goofy assertions.

Tesla was good friends with Mark Twain. If so,-in my universe one Mark Twain equals 2 Crowleys and 2 Vierecks. Factor that in. 😁

Telsa like Pound and Hamsun and Yeats was (maybe) gullible or simply mistaken politically but brilliant and Good on the whole. (Actions speak louder than words) Perhaps we all are gullible, since there are no real lasting political solutions...Plato went wildly off course in his (seeming?) beliefs, or mental explorations thereof, but ended the Republic with divine reincarnation / karma (it's the occult - RUN!!!) as the only true understanding. We have to muddle through.

Hey Robert. I'm not going to stop you from muddling through reality, but I'm going for truth. That said, I never said that Elon was a malthusian as you appear to accuse me of. I only said he was a transhumanist with a proclivity for occultists evidenced by his former wife's wiccan passions and I also said he is a transhumanist. If you don't believe that, then I've got a neural chip to sell you. Lastly, I also never said that anyone who ever knew Tesla was corrupt, nor that Tesla is shady because he knows shady people. This is a very serious 12 part series, I'd recommend you review the extremely comprehensive material that I am bringing to light before you expect me or anyone else trying to understand reality truthful to be muddlers.

I was only commenting on the really stupid thing you said about Elon having a "nearly identical profile" as Tesla. That's all. Count me out of the rest of the series if that's indicative of your level of analysis.

So interesting! Do you have any book recommendations about Tesla (since so much of what is out there seems to be sycophantic)? Thank you for sharing this information! You can tell a lot about someone by who they spend their time with and it appears that Nicky T. fails on that account tremendously!

Honestly, I haven't found anything that hasn't taken the slavishly cultish angle of Tesla the greatest genius of the world angle. The lack of critical thinking on this topic is pretty much ubiquitous. But like most discoveries, you can't tackle it directly, but rather laterally through other fields that at first appear totally unconnected to Tesla, and then the high value anomalies start poping up all over the place, and that becomes the mind-food to chew on in order to generate a higher hypothesis accounting for the anomalies. All discoveries are like that. Leibniz called this technique his 'method of analysis situs' (aka: The geometry of position') which requires mental triangulation from un-connected domains into an invisible, but very real causal principle

All I know is that he had a very strange taste in friends... It's hard to believe that he didn't share their thoughts and passions on some level

I think your research into Tesla is invaluable...so many people who believe they are awake and aware (not woke) regard him as a kind of saviour, his inventions will make the world and our lives better, etc.

Kurt Vonnegut wrote a novel decades ago called "Mother Night" about an American who becomes a Nazi.

Germans are or were the largest white ethnic group in the USA, and there were millions of Nazi sympathizers amongst German-Americans.

The more we find out, the more we realize we don't know--keep going!

I'm looking forward to your next instalment.

Many of the patents associated with Tesla work. Like Isaac newton, many of the formulas associated with him work too. But they tend to work because real scientist and inventors made discoveries which were then stolen and re-branded by the oligarchy's rosicrucian mafia. I'm increasingly persuaded that something similar was the case for Tesla
