NIKOLA TESLA – 167 YEARS SINCE THE BIRTH OF A GENIUS FROM SMILJAN
On this day, exactly 167 years ago, in the small village of Smiljan in Lika (Croatia), a man was born whose ideas and inventions would go on to change the world forever — Nikola Tesla. A visionary far ahead of his time, Tesla gifted humanity with innovations without which modern life would be unimaginable: alternating current, wireless transmission, electromagnetic fields, remote control — just to name a few.
But beyond these groundbreaking achievements lies a deeper, lesser-known story — the story of a man who, though often isolated and misunderstood, remained unwavering in his mission: to place knowledge and energy in the service of humankind.
His private life was as fascinating as his scientific legacy. Living modestly and often in solitude, Tesla was devoted to his work to the point of self-sacrifice. And yet, he always looked toward a distant future — one we are only now beginning to understand.
Today, as technologies inspired by Tesla’s principles — from electroceuticals to plasma-based innovations — step into a new era, we are reminded not only of his inventions but also of his values: dedication, vision, and a deep commitment to the betterment of all.
Nikola Tesla was not just a scientist.
He was a force of nature in service to humanity.
