Zazen is not meditation. It is not a mental exercise, a thing you do with your mind. It is not focused on practices that are antidotes to afflictive states or secondary consciousness. It is not about attaining a special state, being relaxed, or solving your problems.
🚨🇺🇸DID A PRINCETON PHYSICIST JUST TAP INTO EARTH’S SPIN FOR POWER?
No batteries. No moving parts. No solar panels. Just a dark, hollow cylinder quietly pulling electricity from the planet itself.
In a Princeton lab, physicist Christopher Chyba may have done what Michael Faraday tried and failed to do nearly 200 years ago - extract energy directly from Earth’s rotation and magnetic field.
Chyba built a cylinder out of a special material called manganese-zinc ferrite, tilted it at just the right angle, and measured a tiny but unmistakable electric current.
Flip the cylinder? The voltage flipped. Turn it 90 degrees? The current vanished.
The idea sounds wild - almost like a perpetual motion machine - but Chyba says the science checks out.
Earth’s magnetic field isn’t perfectly uniform, and by disrupting how electrons normally cancel themselves out, his device might be exploiting a loophole in physics long thought to be closed.
The current is tiny - just microvolts - but scalable. Enough of these could one day power low-energy devices, especially in space, where Earth’s magnetic field is stronger.
Skeptics aren’t sold yet, and Chyba agrees: the next step is independent replication. But if he’s right, it could rewrite the rules of how we power the future.
