In terms of human wisdom, understanding what a human being is and what life is for, we have truly hit rock bottom. As a result, people are extremely unhappy, anxious, and suicidal. The young have been left with nothing to encourage them except more technical information. This is awful; it’s a tragedy. Unless we are able to do something very soon, this civilization will collapse.

Spiritual experience doesn’t depend on temples, rituals, or religious beliefs. It can happen within the brain itself as a natural activity of the nervous system. Nikola Tesla died with a secret that destroys the entire foundation upon which religions and sciences have built their empires of control. The man who literally electrified the modern world, with 300 patents that underpin our technological infrastructure, didn’t develop his revolutionary inventions through equations on blackboards or methodical laboratory experiments. Each one emerged first as a complete vision during what he called ‘luminous states of consciousness.’

Tesla wasn’t receiving transmissions from an external source; he wasn’t an antenna picking up cosmic signals. It was something infinitely more disturbing to the establishment: he had discovered how to access deep layers of his own consciousness where knowledge already exists, complete, waiting to be recognized. His visions didn’t come from outside; they emerged from the same mental depth that religions have spent millennia teaching you cannot access without authorized intermediaries. Since childhood, Tesla experienced what psychiatrists today would classify as hallucinations—mental images so vivid he couldn’t distinguish them from the physical world. Complex machines operated perfectly in his mind for weeks before he built a single prototype. But here’s the detail no one wants you to notice: his hallucinations worked. Every device visualized in these altered states, when built, operated exactly as predicted.

What does this reveal about the nature of reality? If a man can extract precise technical knowledge from trance states that revolutionizes civilizations, what else is hidden in those depths we’ve been taught to fear as madness or demonic possession? The answer will make you question everything you’ve learned about God, consciousness, and your own creative potential. Because Tesla accidentally discovered what secret orders and esoteric traditions have always known: God isn’t in temples, scriptures, or rituals. God is found in specific states of consciousness that your own brain can access—states that organized religions have spent centuries demonizing to keep you dependent on their mediation. To activate the God within us and truly know God, we need to align with divine consciousness. We need to unlock the inner God to genuinely experience and understand God.

Secret societies have always known this. That’s why they seek to escape ordinary human identity through ritual work, meditation, and especially trance states. The word ‘trance’ comes from Latin and means ‘to cross over.’ But cross over what? The artificial barrier between your limited consciousness and the infinite consciousness you truly are. In this state, the brain precisely deactivates the functions that keep you trapped in the illusion of separation. Neuroscientists detect a dramatic reduction in the lateral prefrontal cortex, the region that creates your sense of separate self and keeps the categories of ‘I’ and ‘world’ rigidly divided. Simultaneously, connections explode between areas that normally don’t communicate. The result: laser focus, expanded perception, and the dissolution of linear time. Siberian shamans induce this state with drums. Athletes call it ‘the zone.’ Programmers know it as ‘flow.’ But all are accessing the same phenomenon: the temporary collapse of the mental walls that imprison your consciousness in survival mode.

Tesla lived perpetually on the frontier of this state. His visions were the brain operating beyond the filters that keep most blind to reality’s deeper layers. He projected entire machines in his mind, not as vague imagination, but with absolute technical precision. He mentally tested each component for weeks, detecting wear and failures before touching any physical material. Modern science confirms this cortical synchronization pattern is identical to that observed in advanced meditators during states of ‘samadhi.’ You’ve experienced this: that moment when the solution to an impossible problem arises instantly, completely, and obviously. That feeling of knowing something without a logical process. They taught you to dismiss these experiences as coincidence, intuition, or luck. But Tesla proved empirically what mystics have always known: in these states, you’re not receiving information from an external source. You’re accessing what has always been present in the depths of your own consciousness—the same infinite well of knowledge from which all reality emerges. The divine that religions monopolize isn’t in doctrines or sacred places. It’s encoded in your brain’s architecture, awaiting activation through the correct state of consciousness. The world’s most imposing cathedrals are sophisticated prisons, and their faithful joyfully celebrate their own spiritual captivity.

This statement may sound blasphemous, but it represents a truth so evident it hides in plain sight. Religious institutions were architected not to connect humanity to the divine, but to create impenetrable layers of separation between human consciousness and its true divine nature. For millennia, humanity has been searching for God in the wrong places. Temples, mosques, synagogues, churches—all these physical structures represent monuments to the greatest spiritual fraud ever perpetrated against human consciousness. Not because the search for the divine is invalid, but because these institutions systematically direct that search outward when the true journey has always been inward. The divine doesn’t dwell in golden altars or sacred texts preserved in dead languages. The divine pulses through altered states of consciousness that religions themselves have historically demonized as heresy. The evidence for this truth doesn’t come from abstract philosophical speculation, but from documented cases that challenge the entire established religious-scientific paradigm.

Nicola Tesla, the man whose inventions literally electrified the modern world, didn’t develop his revolutionary technologies through conventional prayers or religious rituals. His 300 patents, each one fundamental to current technological infrastructure, emerged during what he himself described as expanded states of consciousness—visions that transcended the ordinary limits of human perception. Tesla reported experiences where complex technical information appeared fully formed in his consciousness during states that conventional psychiatry would classify as hallucinatory. He saw his machines working perfectly in his mind before even building a single prototype, not through laborious calculations or methodical experimentation, but through direct access to an information field that exists beyond the five physical senses. This phenomenon forces an uncomfortable question: If humanity’s greatest technological innovations emerged from altered states of consciousness, what does this reveal about the nature of reality and our relationship with the divine? The answer threatens the entire edifice upon which we’ve built our civilization.

Organized religions have invested millennia creating elaborate theologies that position God as an external entity, separate, unreachable except through authorized intermediaries: priests, pastors, rabbis, imams. This architecture of separation is no accident. It represents a deliberate strategy to keep humanity disconnected from its intrinsic creative power, its essential divine nature. Consider the fundamental structure of any organized religion: There’s you, small and sinful. There’s God, great and perfect. And there’s an unbridgeable chasm between both that can only be crossed through specific rituals, approved doctrines, and conveniently generous donations. This narrative of separation contradicts direct experiences of the divine, consistently reported across all cultures and epochs, always by individuals who dared explore altered states of consciousness outside approved religious parameters.

Neuropsychiatrist Iain McGilchrist offers a neuroscientific key to understanding this phenomenon. His revolutionary research on brain hemispheres reveals that we possess literally two radically different modes of perceiving reality. The left hemisphere, which dominates our modern civilization, fragments, categorizes, and creates divisions. It’s the hemisphere of linear logic, analysis, and separation. The right hemisphere perceives wholes, connections, and the invisible web that unites all things. It’s the hemisphere of direct experience, intuition, and unity. Organized religions paradoxically operate almost exclusively through the left hemisphere: doctrines, dogmas, categories of sin and salvation, elaborate hierarchies. They keep their followers trapped in a mode of consciousness that by its very nature is incapable of perceiving the fundamental unity between the human and the divine. It’s like trying to understand the ocean by analyzing individual water drops; the essence is lost in fragmentation. This is not a historical accident but intentional design.

A humanity that understands its intrinsic divine nature doesn’t need intermediaries. A humanity that accesses expanded states of consciousness receives knowledge directly from the source. A humanity awakened to its true identity as individualized expressions of universal divine consciousness cannot be controlled through threats of eternal damnation or promises of conditional salvation. The question that emerges is simultaneously simple and revolutionary: What if everything religions have taught about the nature of God, about your relationship with the divine, about the very structure of reality, was specifically designed to keep you ignorant of your true identity? What if the greatest spiritual secret is that there’s no secret at all, only direct recognition of what you’ve always been?

The fragmentation of human consciousness didn’t begin by chance. Tracing the origins of the world’s major religions, a disturbing pattern emerges: Each one institutionalizes at its doctrinal core the same fundamental lie—that you and God are separate entities, distinct, fundamentally different in nature. This is not merely one theological interpretation among other possibilities; it’s the cornerstone upon which the entire edifice of religious control was erected. In ancient Egypt, priests jealously guarded the mysteries in inner temples accessible only to initiates after years of preparation. But what mysteries were these? Recovered hieroglyphs reveal practices for inducing altered states of consciousness: prolonged fasting, rhythmic breathing, psychoactive substances derived from the blue lotus. The initiates weren’t learning about external gods; they were directly experiencing their own divine nature. The knowledge was deliberately hidden from the masses who remained worshiping statues and offering sacrifices to deities that the priests themselves knew were symbolic representations of internal forces of consciousness.

This pattern repeats obsessively throughout history. The early Christian Gnostics taught that the kingdom of God was within, that each human being carried the divine spark. They were systematically exterminated by the institutional church. Their texts burned, their consciousness-expanding practices denounced as demonic. The Gospel of Thomas, discovered at Nag Hammadi, preserves words attributed to Jesus that never appear in the official Bible: “He who drinks from my mouth will become as I am; I myself shall become he, and the hidden things will be revealed to him.” A declaration of shared divine identity, not hierarchical worship. The same suppression occurred in Islam with the Sufis, in Judaism with the Kabbalists, and in Hinduism when the Brahmins transformed direct experiences of cosmic consciousness into elaborate rituals that only they could perform. Always the same movement: taking a direct experience of the divine and transforming it into doctrine mediated by authorized authorities.

But why this obsessive need to fragment, to separate, to create distance between the human and the divine? The answer lies in the very structure of the human brain, magnificently elucidated by neuropsychiatrist Iain McGilchrist in his seminal work, The Master and His Emissary. McGilchrist demonstrates through decades of neuroscientific research that we essentially possess two brains operating simultaneously, each constructing a radically different version of reality. The left hemisphere is the great fragmenter. It takes the fluid, interconnected experience of reality and divides it into manageable pieces. It categorizes, labels, and creates hierarchies. It sees individual trees, separate leaves, and distinct branches. It’s the hemisphere of language, linear logic, and sequential thinking—crucial for survival, certainly, but catastrophic when it becomes the dominant mode of perception.

The right hemisphere perceives completely differently. When you walk through a forest, the right hemisphere doesn’t see objects. It perceives a living, pulsing organism where each element exists in dynamic relationship with all others. The tree doesn’t end where its roots begin; its roots intertwine with those of other trees in a mycorrhizal network that scientists now call the ‘wood wide web.’ The air the tree breathes is the same air that fills your lungs. The minerals in its leaves came from soil that was once rock, which was once a star. The right hemisphere perceives this continuity, this fundamental absence of real boundaries. McGilchrist argues, and the neuroscientific evidence is overwhelming, that our civilization suffers from a tyranny of the left hemisphere. Education, science, religion, and economics all operate predominantly through the fragmenting mode. We’ve been systematically trained since childhood to suppress the right hemisphere’s holistic perception in favor of the left’s fragmentary analysis. This imbalance is not neutral; it has profound consequences for how we experience reality.

The left hemisphere, by its very nature, can only see separation. When it dominates perception, you literally become incapable of experiencing your intrinsic connection with the whole. It’s like wearing glasses that only show edges and boundaries, never the continuous space that connects all things. Modern science, ironically, reinforces this fragmentation, even when its most advanced discoveries contradict it. Quantum physics demonstrates unequivocally that observer and observed are inseparable, that consciousness collapses possibilities into realities, that particles separated by galaxies respond instantly to each other. But these discoveries remain compartmentalized, never allowed to contaminate the mechanistic worldview that dominates education and culture. They teach that the universe is a dead machine that coincidentally produced consciousness after billions of years of random accidents. That you’re a temporary byproduct of complex chemical reactions, destined to disappear without a trace when those reactions cease. That the universe would continue exactly the same without your presence. Each of these claims is not just false, but precisely inverted from the truth.

The universe doesn’t exist ‘out there’ independent of you. You’re not in the universe like an object in a box. You are the universe experiencing itself through a unique and irreplaceable point of view. Remove your consciousness, and the entire universe you experience disappears with it. This is not speculative philosophy; it’s the inevitable conclusion of any honest analysis of the nature of experience. There’s only one person in the universe. This statement sounds like a psychotic delusion only because we’ve been meticulously programmed to reject the most obvious truth of existence. There aren’t billions of separate consciousnesses wandering through an indifferent cosmos. There is a single consciousness. Call it God, Brahman, Source. The name is irrelevant.
