In the book, Tesla: Man Out of Time, by Margaret Cheney, she quoted Nikola Tesla, who talked about having, “A peculiar affliction due to the appearance of images, often accompanied by strong flashes of light, which marred the sight of real objects and interfered with my thought and action. They were pictures of things and scenes which I had really seen, never of those I imagined. When a word was spoken to me, the image of the object it designated would present itself vividly to my vision and sometimes I was quite unable to distinguish whether what I saw was tangible or not.” Cheney continues, “In the stillness of the night, the vivid picture of a funeral he had seen or some other disturbing scene would thrust itself before his eyes, so that even if he jabbed his hand through it, it would remain fixed in space.” What can Creator tell us about this ability of Tesla’s? Does Marilu Henner see her memories in a similar fashion?

Cheney quotes Tesla about his amazing visualization ability, “My method is different … I do not rush into actual work. When I get an idea I start at once building it up in my imagination. I change the construction, make improvements and operate the device in my mind. It is absolutely immaterial to me whether I run my turbine in my thought or test it in my shop. I even note if it is out of balance.” Cheney writes, “He claimed he was able to perfect a conception without touching anything. Only when all the faults had been corrected in his brain, did he put the device into concrete form.” Most people cannot begin to relate to this kind of ability. What can Creator tell us?

Cheney wrote of Tesla, “The optic screen in his mind stored entire logarithmic tables to be called on as needed.” Brian struggled mightily with math, and failed to become a mechanical engineer himself, largely due to his excessively poor memory for detail—in contrast to Tesla’s optic screen. Brian tries to be philosophical and a good sport about this kind of disparity, but sometimes can’t help feeling a bit of chagrin about how UNFAIR it all seems at times. Most people have two hands and two feet. Why do most people NOT have an optic screen like Tesla? What can Creator tell us?
