Part 3/9:
Despite being a pioneer, Tesla faced significant challenges later in his life, including financial ruin and existential despair. He often experimented with high-frequency electrical discharges, believing that such tests could bring him closer to understanding the universe. However, during one fateful, mystical night, he experienced an event that transcended scientific inquiry; he felt a strange, luminous presence that beckoned his curiosity rather than invoking fear.
In this state of consciousness teetering between life and death, Tesla perceived the illumination that he later described in his publications. This moment marked a profound shift in his worldview, one that led him to encounter a being he would ultimately identify as the devil, though not in the conventional sense.
