I should have been more specific and state that I only hope to one day be able to read the article, which I only skimmed through. Thank you for your comment ArjanDeva, and I want to add that my narrative isn’t a replacement the opportunity of the good read Bhagiratha is providing.

IMO, The article apparently deals more with his works as a breakthrough scientist along the line of his philosophy of the life and understanding of the universe. I happen to be a bit of a Tesla’s fan club, however not part of his little cultish universe: teslauniverse.com

The man was particularly singular. When I first discovered information about him, I was surprised to note that he had been a long standing vegetarian, and even on a restricted and healthy diet at that, pretty much a lacto-vegan. Even that alone, I think makes his cause of death as related to some coronary issue is very dubious to say the least.

He walked a few miles every day, and has been verified and corroborated to sleep not more than two hours a night. He always did a squishing of his toes a hundred times on each foot before sleep because he explained it helps invigorate his brain cells. He never married I wonder his reasons, because his saying that he isn’t worthy of a woman just doesn’t cut it.

Before meeting RishiDeva I had understood that along the lines of evolution one reason for human level of intelligence over the animal is not necessarily the ability to move on two legs, but rather the formation and dexterity of our digits (fingers, and perhaps toes).

Stimulation of the digits I concluded increases blood flow to the brain. I never deemed necessarily to bother Sri Guru with my obvious remark when I noticed repeated stimulation of the fingers during practice, and of course the importance of also working the toes. It is noteworthy that Nikola Tesla befriended Swami Vivekananda.
