First that Tesla had seen that this process had been understood by ancient people and second that he used words from eastern philosophy to describe the process. Tesla had attended the lectures of Swami Vivekananda in New York City in 1896 and had been inspired by Vivikananda's explanation of Vedic cosmology. It was only through the use of vedic terminology that Tesla was able to describe the forces of nature, western science lacked the vocabulary as well as the understanding. Matter integrates by the contraction of one pair of spirals around the shafts which wind it into spheres by the way of its poles, and disintegrates it by the expansion of the other pair which unwinds it by the way of equators. Gravitation and Radiation.
Every wave is considered a compression-expansion pump.
The whole universe is a giant pump. The two-way piston of the universal pump constitutes the universal heartbeat. A one-way universe is as impossible as a one way pump is possible. The compressed condition of this universe is exactly equal to the expanded condition. The compressed condition is gravitation.
