Who Am I? Independent and Inspired by Nikola Tesla

Neither do I see myself as Nikola Tesla nor as Thomas Edison. I am Shubhanshu, and I value my unique presence in this world. My primary passion is physics, but I do not align myself with any of these historical figures. While I admire their work and contributions, I am my own person who values authenticity and individuality above all else.

Currently, I am still on my feet, and I am committed to my journey. Best regards to everyone who shares a similar mindset and aspirations.

My Inspiration: Nikola Tesla

Shubhanshu is my identity, and it is the single most powerful force that drives me. It is not about comparing or emulating anyone from the past; instead, it is about being the best version of myself. Nikola Tesla has always been my inspiration, not because I see myself as him, but because his dedication to humanity and relentless pursuit of technological advancement continues to inspire me.

A Comparison Between Tesla, Edison, and Feynman

Neither Nikola Tesla nor Thomas Edison could have polished the boots of Richard Feynman, let alone become a true scientist. The mental gap between a scientist and an engineer is enormous, especially in the field of physics. Richard Feynman's ability to learn new mathematics and apply it to his work was unparalleled. Tesla and Edison, on the other hand, would have simply ignored such needs and focused more on practical applications, which often fell short of theoretical precision.

Einstein, for instance, could master a new field of mathematics within months, whereas Tesla and Edison would have been content with their existing knowledge base. Edison, in particular, struggled with the mathematics he already had, making him fall short of true scientific rigor.

The Bhagavad Gita and Tesla's Philanthropic Vision

According to the Bhagavad Gita, one has the right to work but not the fruits of that work. This principle resonates deeply with me, and it is precisely why I aspire to follow in the footsteps of Nikola Tesla. Tesla's dedication to improving the world for its inhabitants rather than seeking personal gain is a powerful reminder of what it truly means to be a scientist. After his death, the fruits of his labor were reaped, but during his lifetime, he focused on his work, not on the recognition it would later garner.

In contrast, Thomas Edison, while undoubtedly a brilliant inventor, balanced his scientific pursuits with a significant amount of business acumen. While he may have recognized Tesla's genius, he did not give him the proper respect and financial compensation that Tesla deserved. It is important to note that, while Edison was a remarkable inventor, he was not Tesla's peer in the realm of pure science.

The Future I Aspire to Create

I envision myself as a person who can shape the future. In the spirit of Nikola Tesla, I am dedicated to harnessing the power of science and technology to uplift humanity. Tesla's struggles and his unwavering commitment to providing free electricity to the world serve as a powerful example. His inventions like remote control, wireless technology, and many others continue to influence our 21st-century world.

It is not enough to be merely good; I aspire to be great. I aspire to be the man who creates future generations, inspired by Tesla's legacy. By following his example, I can contribute to a better world where technology serves the common good rather than personal gain.

Shubhanshu: Independent, inspired, and dedicated to a better future. This is the aspiration I hold within me.
