Nikola Tesla. Scientist. Engineer. Visionary — Part XV: Tesla and Religion – Between Tradition and Visionary Thought
Nikola Tesla was born into a family deeply rooted in the Orthodox Christian faith. His father, Milutin Tesla, was a priest in the Serbian Orthodox Church, while his mother, Georgina (Đuka), came from a family with a strong religious heritage. Yet, although raised in the spirit of Christian tradition, Tesla did not become a priest—he…
