Rethinking Energy

Rethinking Energy is not a book about how to get more energy. It‘s a book about why everything we believe about energy might be wrong. We were taught that energy flows, that it powers machines, that it can be stored, transferred, and transformed. From E = mc² to the electricity in our homes, our understanding of energy has been shaped by metaphors of motion, particles, and force. But what if that entire story is a misinterpretation? What if energy doesn‘t move at all? In this radical and mind-opening book, independent physicist and philosopher Sandeep J. Chavan introduces Universal Energy Dynamics (UED) - a new lens through which we no longer see energy as a substance, but as a ripple alignment event in a structured vacuum field. From light and electricity to gravity, fusion, and consciousness, this book reveals:Why nothing is ever actually "transferred" - it‘s all resolved tension. How electricity doesn‘t flow through wires - the field simply permits alignment. Why photons aren‘t real "particles" - they‘re just ripple permissions. How machines, power grids, and even renewable systems work very differently than we assume. And how we‘ve confused "force" with misalignment waiting for resolution. With clear logic, bold declarations, and practical classroom insights, Rethinking Energy dissolves the myths we inherited from classical and quantum physics. It redefines technology, reimagines sustainability, and challenges the very foundation of how we teach science. This isn‘t a theory to agree or disagree with. It‘s a way of seeing. If you‘ve ever felt that science was memorized but not understood - if you‘ve questioned how energy "moves" without really knowing what moves - this book is your answer. It will not comfort your textbooks. It will not flatter your institutions. But it will speak to the part of you that always knew: The universe doesn‘t run on motion. It waits. It aligns. And only then... it resolves.
