Trauma an Existence in Relationships

The podcast can be found here, Trauma and Existence

Our existence is determined by relationships. These relationships include one’s relationship with their family, neighbours, employment, society as well as with our surroundings over and above human beings, relationship with the air one breathes is a relationship too.

Relationships determine a human’s basics needs food and shelter. For trauma to be effective it must target the basics, food, and shelter.

The relationship living things have with food is that without nourishment life will wither and die. This is the same with human beings, without enough calories one will weaken and die. One needs food to get food, food gives one the energy to get food, it is fuel. Therefore, most trauma will be directed around food, the relationship human beings have with food is that without it a human lacks energy to form other relationships, food provides the energy to have relationships. Without food eventually one’s relationships get less and less until they have the last relationship with their death bed.

Any creatures most personal possession is their body. That is the deepest relationship they will have in this material world. That is why human beings say my body, my hands, my eyes, my vagina, my toes, my buttocks, my knees, my heart, my head. Understanding this relationship, one has with one’s body, the ultimate trauma is to cause trauma to the body, to cause physical pain and ultimately death. All other relationships are secondary to the relationship one has with their body, no body no life.

What happens to a slave who gets out of line, they get a whipping, trauma to the body? The relationships in the mind of the slave is that they understand what will happen if they get out of line. There other ways to punish a slave who gets out of line, and this again is to attack their most personal relationship the one they have with the body. The slave is given the most back breaking work for getting out of line. This is an attack on the body, the most personal relationship. One sends those slaves to break rocks with a pick as a warning to others.

Everybody is going to die, though certain it remains a random event, traumatic death can be considered a premature death, all adults understand this, the relationships in their mind want to avoid a premature death.

Trauma is based around the reality that a human being wants to be alive. Not only to be alive, but they want the best possible life they can get. All human beings have a deep relationship with food, it along with water is literally life. The relationship with food is such that the promise of better-quality food can change the relationships in a human being’s mind.

That human beings will use their last reserves of effort to try to get food and water, to have another day, this is the reality in this three-dimensional reality, the reality of life. Humans want the better of the basic needs, be it food, shelter, or clothing.

All human beings have a deep relationship with food and water primarily as well as with shelter and clothing. As these are primary to human survival, the relationship in the human mind is such that humans understand that better quality food is associated with a materially better quality life, that is why better quality food, shelter and clothing is associated with a materially better quality life and that better food, shelter and clothing is for who society has given more culturally. If the culture is theft, of course the thieves will have the better-quality food, shelter and clothing. It is about how society is organized, the relationships within society determining what is valued.

Understanding human relationships in the mind, there is a hierarchy of needs, ranking of desires, what must be taken care of first in terms of human survival. Every action one takes is a random event and it is influenced by what one believes must be done at that moment. When one follows a bad law, it is not necessarily that they agree with that law, but for survival, at that moment one feels that obeying the bad law is good for their survival and continuation of life.

One’s relationships are around food, shelter and clothing. How much does a human for example rank a certain cultural practice compared to food, shelter and clothing? Depending on their toleration they will rank different principles they have in relation to food, shelter and clothing. This toleration will determine a human being view towards accepting that everything is in a relationship, all relationships take energy to maintain and all relationships are random. The reality is that the relationship between the basic needs and society is that often people will prefer food or better-quality food rather than accept that all relationships are random. If food, shelter, better quality food and shelter means they must ignore the reality that every relationship is random, it means that is how they get their food, shelter and clothing.

Trauma is about forcing people to accept their place. It plays with an individuals or a groups hierarchical needs, the dilemma of course is always what does society do with those who insist on the reality that all relationships take energy to maintain and are all random, they will go against societies norms unless that society respects reality, then reality that all relationships are random will be a major factor in the culture of the land.

Rejecting the principles around relationship means trauma must be applied to maintain that culture with its own unique ways of denying in practice that all relationships are random. Trauma is applied using the hierarchy of human needs and desires. Trauma of course is applied harsher and harsher according to what cultural norms have been broken.

One’s own principles are determined by one’s own philosophy, their outlook of the world. One’s philosophy depends on their past locations and relationships in those locations. This is to say, one’s philosophy, the relationships one has in their mind, is determined by past relationships. It is one’s relationships in their mind, one’s philosophy that will determine how much one will accept the reality that all relationships are random.

One does not normally associate those who leave in shacks with having ice cream and plum for dessert. Some human beings desiring this ice cream and kiwi fruit for desert above the reality that all relationships are random will use their energy to maintain relationships that deny that relationships are random, as if they where not born because of a random process, their very chances of having been born at all are miniscule but there they are.

To get this ice cream and kiwi fruit, if they have to deny the reality that all relationships are random for it, it means they are willing to cheat, rob, create illusions around themselves that suggest that somehow reality favors them by chance for some mystical reason, fix the system to serve them over and above others of society. To be able to rob, cheat, maintain illusions they created around themselves, they have to use trauma, or they might not get to have the caviar.

There of course those despite much get their steak because they understand no matter what relationships society has, no matter what they profess to be their truth, the reality that everything is in a relationship and all of these relationships need energy to maintain and are random. These people use their energy to build relationships that are not culturally accepted and thus prove that all relationships are random. Of course they will meet resistance if the culture of the location does not accept that all relationships are random, trauma.

The less a society accepts that all relationships are random it follows that culture will tolerate more trauma. More people will understand their place through trauma and the threats of trauma not ability or lack of ability. Those who give direction to society will be there through a process that denies that all relationships are random.

To deny the reality that all relationships are random is in essence in terms of understanding relationships is to determine that for one to get food, shelter, and clothing it has less to do with the human but other outside factors that can not be fully comprehended by the human mind.

Information is categorized according to certain properties, the reason why one can say this is an apple, that a star, this is water, this is a human being, that is a zebra. Though the zebra, cyanide, and human being are made up of the same stuff, that same stuff has different relationships with itself, different quantity and quality of energy used to maintain those relationships thus giving them form and structure. Humans have categorized certain relationships as a zebra, others as cyanide, others as human beings and the multitude of things that humans have named because they have categorized them.

To classify information as a human being means society has observed and deemed if information meets certain parameters it shall be categorized as a human being. Having categorized that information package as a human being, a human being is about relationships with the same stuff as copper, all relationships are random and need energy to maintain them and give them structure. As all relationships are random, relationship between similar information will be random limited by limits on either side. It follows that relationships that deal with human beings will not defy the reality that affects all other relationships. For one to then deny this reality as applicable to human beings can only enforce this with trauma certainly not reasoning.

Once refusing to accept that all relationships are random one opens relationships in their mind to things that are extremely far fetched and have nothing to do with the reality a human is just a human. They must justify their denial of randomness with mysticism. The reality is falsified that it is not about food on the table when it is, that is why they get the best food.

Once one goes into mysticism they will study themes like one must walk into the light, one must become the light, follow the light, they give the light, they are enlightened, somehow their specialness is always at one time or another related to light. They always invoke a relationship with light, a relationship takes energy to maintain. The good food they have first choice to supplies the energy for their minds to have such relationships.

It is normally on public display who is having good quality food and other members of the society can see that. As this first choice to food comes from a false premise that has to deny that all relationships are random, those aspiring to better quality food must also apply this false premise or the relationships that depend on that false premise will fall apart.

Fancying the 100-foot yacht one must deny reality that everything is in a relationship and all relationships are random. That 100-foot yacht represents better quality food, shelter and clothing. In societies, or planets that deny that reality to get that 100-foot yacht means most often one has gone with the cultural norms of whatever prejudices that culture has adopted to deny that all relationships are random. Having denied that everything is in a relationship they justify it with mysticism. That mysticism invoking light how close they are to the light, how they follow the path of the light, how they are enlightened and are prone by some mysticism to be easily enlightened.

But when one investigates this light it is the one that told us that everything is in a relationship and that all relationships lead to a loss of freedom because they need energy to be maintained and give them structure. All relationships are random. By refusing this reality that all relationships are random starting from the basic particle was a result of observing the behaviour of light. But people claim to be enlightened, following the path of enlightenment, the light, but the light tells us all relationships are random. This means the light they talk of is not the real light, but some false imagination that can never be investigated.

To defy reality as has been stated above, more traumatic relationships must be created to force the human mind to accept what is not real, this is because a human being will prefer in most instances to be alive, preferring to exist and showing submission, when can easily whisper red can be green. The question for those who cause trauma is how much does it take on average in the relationships in the mind of the opponent does it take for them to submit and say green is red as a sign of submission that reality is not random. Not realizing they are torturing a human who exists because of random events and themselves as the one torturing and breaking the opponent exist because of a random event.

To accept things are random it means one understands that another is a human and is not a gift for them from some mystical concepts for them to do with as they please. The light of their imagination by refusing that all relationships are random refuses to grasp the reality that the true light leads to. Thus in that society to openly support everything is random and what it implies, culturally, legally, economic organization, intellectual encouragement, simply put accepting that everything is in a relationship and relationships are random, the entire outlook of society would change and ask why do they have first choice to food, if the answer defies that all relationships are random, somebody is being taken for less of a human being at some level.

Accepting that all relationships are random is to accept there is no human being who is a sacred gift to another. A human being finally must work on themselves, as any other human being works on themselves in what ever they are seeking from this life. Accepting everything is random one needs not cheat because their mind was not up to the task, perhaps their grandchildren’s mind will be up to the task. But if they insist, they will cheat, it puts a risk on their grandchildren who might have better relationships than them in terms of understanding. People can see when they are being cheated, it means it must become culture of the society, trauma.

Rejecting that all relationships are random, is to deny that others are fully human, not as much as the one denying hat all relationships are random. Trauma must be induced, targeting the basics, food, the quality and quantity of food. Shelter, the quality and quantity of the shelter. Clothing, the quality and quantity of clothing and all that these qualities and quantities imply. It is to convince oneself and culture that somehow some are just not good enough by some mystical notions.

A society based on trauma finally ends up in terms of those culturally taken as the least are spoken of in terms of near animals, they don’t feel pain, they are suited for that, that means animals have no pain if they consider humans to have no pain. Anything can be traumatized unnecessarily because a human has no pain unlike them special humans who feel all the pain and all the emotional range of human beings.

Having traumatized human beings for some resources, what are the animals and plants worth if a human being can be sacrificed? That flora and fauna is worth nothing, no matter how much one tries to deny that another human being is just another human being, that act means it is about them, that is how they understand relationships, everything else is to serve them, if a human is so much less the kangaroo, bear, eagles, whales, leopards, giraffes, salmon are just nonsense. The confusion becomes even more clear when it comes to humans mimicking.

We have talked of Flora and Fauna, but apparently another had the same thought. A tweet from @seeker says a John Francis founder of Planet Walk apparently once said “we are the environment and how we treat each other is really how we treat the environment”

Humans looked at the birds and wished to fly. Humans looked at information, something made up of exactly the same stuff as humans, but because of different energy relationships it flew, humans desired so much to mimic the bird that today we fly. If birds did not exist what would have inspired humans to fly, what would have humans mimicked. To then go and destroy the bird is to refuse the reality that one was inspired by those birds. A human is looked down upon, what about the inspiration from the bird, you thought of flying, that is a clear lie, people saw birds.

All sorts of robots in 2020 are inspired by animals, from insects to snakes, what if they didn’t exist. If one believes you can work a human to death because they feel no pain, how can they ever believe that insect they are copying for their robots feels pain, it is obviously of less intellectual capacity and one can do as they please with it, how can it feel pain? Humans deny creatures that inspire them, all from a result of denying that all relationships are random.

Denying all relationships are random means one to maintain these relationships in society must deny that they have been inspired by what they consider lessor, an obvious lie, that’s why it was enforced that the knowledge of the slave belongs to the master. How then will one admit that the shape of some fish inspired the design of a plane, what if that thing didn’t exist.

Of course humans need resources to progress, resources implies applied knowledge. We need iron from the ground, question is can it not be mined more efficiently. We need more food, can we not utilize the land better. But before even attempting to answer these questions on a grand scale, is a human being just another human being, do we accept that everything is in a random relationship and is the result of random relationships that need energy to maintain thus giving them a structure.

Fire and Some Human Relationships

 

The podcast can be found here: Fire and Some Human Relationships

Why fire and some human relationships, and not fire and human relationships as the title. Because fire is too big, it can fill encyclopedia’s upon encyclopedia’s, or at least a massive server. Note, both the encyclopedia and server are the result of fire. An encyclopedia be it scrolls pre to post industrial age, a server stores our digital information.

Fire is real, but it is constantly mystified, most ceremonies include fire. What can be more mystical than a ceremony, maybe the ancient light, because in reality one can have fire in the middle of a ceremony, they might as well have a heater or a light bulb, fire is nothing but a provider of light and heat, the simplest radiation humans can control. Fire is not specialized, it throws heat and light everywhere, heat and light are just photons, radiating from a fire or those heaters called radiators, efficient light bulbs emit more light than heat. But it all started with fire, when fire played role of light and heat.

To have a ceremony with fire at the center or playing a prominent role can only be to admit what a central role fire has played in our civilizations that the tool is mystified. The tool is mystified, it is nothing but our first age of controlling radiation, of controlling the production of photons. Those photons will give us heat and light depending on the quality and quantity of their energy.

Massive servers to hold information around fire. Use of metals is only because of the heat from fire. Wood and stone are not as versatile as metals in creating a weapon. Molten metals can follow a mold, the imagination of a man, what ever shape he wants the weapon. Fire allowed humans to satisfy their wishes in designing the best handheld weapons possible. Allowing them to experiment in design beyond what wood and stone weapons would allow.

But fire has done much more, right at the beginning, where honestly would human beings be without fire. It is not some deference to a deity that will bring heat to the shelter on some cold night. No matter how much one gets into a state of what would be considered a trance , speaking to the spirits of the dead, that will not boil that pot of water, but fire will as long as you know how to start that fire and control it.

Fire does nothing more than bring control of the elements closer to humanity. Almost every culture knew how to make a weapon with a metal blade, that is the courtesy of fire. Fire is a big deal. Fire is a tool, a tool is there to make things easier.

From when first controlled fire has been central to human culture around food, and shelter. It is part of culture in that fire cooks our food and warms our shelter, thus it is central to our lifes, it has been central in our lifes as we can see we are leaving the age of fire after 200 000 years and just moving to natural refinement of what fire provided. Used in certain ways fire improved always in efficiency always giving greater insights to those who experimented with it in a controlled fashion giving the energy to fashion tools to study fire itself and move away to different heat and light sources. Investigating fires abilities directly took man to the moon.

Fire is a tool, used properly makes human life easier, what humans do with that controlled fire is up to human beings.

Fire must have been a wonder, just to taste the difference in the taste of meat from fire compared to raw meat must have been an experience. Just this alone reduced sickness.

Here is fire, anyone can train how to light it. For the first time in human relationships here was something mystics could never claim to be able to exclusively control. A mystic could not go to the other side and touch somebody and give them the luck in lighting a fire as they could bless the hunt and the growth of the plants. Obviously now we have far more agricultural output thanks to knowledge not blessings from the priestly class that includes shaman, popes, priests of Venus, Krishna, same class. And there is the crime of Prometheus if ever there was what is considered treason in myth or reality. At a time when everything was blessed, those who where given the ability, the power to control fire, usually every adult, they did not need a blessing to make the meat taste better. It wasn’t the divine, it was their ability that everyone can have to light and control fire. What a revelation, what a gift.

That should be one of the first realizations humans had with their relationship with fire, though everywhere blessings took place, what actually made meat taste better was lighting a fire, what gave them access to beans was fire, raw beans cannot be stored, too hard, need fire to create boiling water in a container that is possibly hardened by fire and the beans cook and become soft. Lighting a fire, knowledge and skill that anyone could possess, it had to be taught, not a genetic gift like a fast runner.

Though not genetic, lighting a fire depended on how much one wanted to know how to light that fire and practice like with any other skill or knowledge one wants to apply. Fire was once a priority, everyone had to know how to light it, just as today everyone knows how to light a stove or a heater, the source of heat.

To start and control a fire implies a relationship with fire. All relationships lead to a loss of freedom due to the energy needed to maintain them, this implies time being spent on those relationships. Thus when starting and controlling a fire time must be spent on these activities. But that relationship did not need some ceremony and the food tastes better than the food that was blessed but was not cooked.

Say one lights a fire for a purpose, say cooking. One is not only in a relationship with that fire, they are also in a relationship with the food that is boiling in the pot, plus the fire they must constantly watch, but they are also constantly in a relationship with the air they breath and the ground they stand, walk and sleep on. We are always involved in multiple relationships at any one time.

Talking about mythology, the likes of Prometheus, in Greek mythology he gave humans the gift of fire, it is a nice story. When Prometheus gave human beings fire, he gave more than warmth, light and better tasting meat, he gave a philosophy behind that fire. True, everybody probably understood that there where better hunters than others, and in a group hunting everybody had their role, but there was the blessing before the hunt. But the fire that made the meat taste better needed no blessing. For this Prometheus was made to pay a heavy price. To this day he is tied to a rock and a vulture eats his liver during the day, constantly, then the liver grows back and night and the next day the vulture comes and eats his liver.

That is the price according to Greek mythology that was paid for human beings to have fire, the tool that made meat taste better than meat that was equally blessed but had no fire to cook it. Even those claiming to have connections with vast powers of the universe could not make the meat taste better, it must be the properties of fire that made the meat taste better and easier to chew. It is either they misunderstood those vast powers, or those vast powers do not exist because they can’t make the meat taste as good as fire.

Many are familiar with the History Channel production Ancient Aliens. It is a different perspective of history. Imagine if Prometheus really existed, let us look at the symbolism of his punishment, to understand how important fire is to humanity even in mythology. The crime of Prometheus was to give fire to humans.

Fire did not just give warmth and make the meat and beans more palatable, it showed to man that they could control the elements without relying on the whims of the gods. The gods of course in Greek mythology, in some human mythology where displeased, and the punishment Prometheus received, it shows the magnitude of how much the gods believed the act of Prometheus was so treasonable, they wanted man to believe every advance was from the gods, the spirits, anything but not the deeds of humans, when the truth is every action used to build civilization is from people.

For letting humans begin to understand reality, by giving humans fire, Prometheus was tied to a rock and has his liver eaten everyday and he would recover at night the punishment is supposed to be forever. But why the liver, what Prometheus did was to believe in the potential of the human being and gave a human being a toy, play with it and see how strong your mind is, a tremendously brave thing to do, then why not eat his heart , the heart is usually associated with bravery, why the liver?

Prometheus acted with resolve, determined no matter the consequences, most of the world associates’ bravery with the heart, why does the vulture not eat his heart, why the liver? Incidentally the Khumalo associate resolve with the liver. A deed of resolve is always followed by you have liver. The heart is associated with acts of passion, overcoming like overcoming one’s fears, but the liver with acts of resolve, what must be done. Prometheus did what must be done for humanity by giving the gift of fire. For that, the gods punished him be a vulture eating his resolve constantly. Let us forget this Ancient Alien stuff and back to reality around fire.

By allowing humans to get warmth and taste better meat, it for the first allowed humans to understand their fate is in their own hands if they so desire. Human fate does not have to be at the whims of the elements and the gods. Fire gave humans a chance to awaken. Access to greater variety of foods, nobody knows how one can eat raw beans, they are so hard, but boil them and all that nutrition is unlocked for Earthlings.

Fire allowed humans to replace what is considered natural like wood with metals. I say considered natural, because when we understand the principles behind the reasoning that everything is information because everything will tell you what it is, everything has similar basic characteristics, it is all made up of the same stuff, a fact proven by every experiment in a collider. Our existence is about relationships this same stuff has with itself, those relationships determine how that same stuff will be, it could become a human, a rat, iron ore, a star, or a tree. Everything is nature, is natural, even a nuclear power station, it does not disobey the laws of nature, it comes from what they call nature, it is made up of the same stuff as what they call natural.

A nuclear reactor, because it is there it is natural, it has been part of the natural process. It is natural for the imagination of the human being to change the more it explores nature, that has been the most significant thing about the relationship with fire, being creative with fire has allowed humans to have machines outside the solar system, these machines would be impossible without humans understanding that one can make meat taste to their requirements, one can have a well done steak or a rare steak. The food doesn’t have to taste the same just because it is from the same antelope. The meat will taste to your desire not the desire of the one who blesses food that is eaten raw.

This in no way suggests the planet should be made inhabitable, then what would have been the point of that fire if humans end up destroying themselves.

All humans had access to fire, most had access to metals. What they forged with the metal was the imagination of the human beings freeing the mind more and more with each improvement of the what was being forged. Culture chooses how to forge that metal, when liquid it will take the shape of the mould, the shape of the mould is what the mind desires, not the elements controlling humans, humans controlling the elements, the great awakening was fire for those who chose to play with it. Fire gave according to the relationship a culture decided to have with it.

Take the creation of a blade for defending one’s life and war.

Metal is heated by fire, because fire is radiation, it gives out different types of photons, different types of light, fire from wood is nonspecialized radiation. Some photons released produce visible light other photons produce heat. Fire was our first control of radiation. The photons that produce heat, heat the ore and separate the metal from what becomes sludge. The metal flows into a mold and takes the form that the bladesmith has imagined. Fire gave man the power to replace materials that came directly from nature like wood, with far stronger and resilient material like metal, it all just depended on what humans wanted to replace the natural material with this metal that comes from fire. Metals can do this because they take the shape of the mold. The mold could be a spear, a sword, a pot, jewellery, a gear, what ever they are imagining.

One decided to do with that fire depended on the structure of that culture, that metal making a spear could very well make a pot or a small container for personal stuff, it is up to the imagination. Still on the subject of replacing what was considered natural with man made materials like iron, imagine the first group that had a metal blade. They met others who still relied on wood. Even if those that relied on wooden or stone tipped blades. Those with stone tipped blades might be in general have more skill, more power, their shock as they met iron tipped blades that at times would cut through the wooden shaft, the shock and disbelief. The strength would be a hinderance as the swing their weapon with all their power making it easier for the metal to cut their wooden shafts.

It is not fire that brought the wars, the wars where already there, fire added to the imagination. Like any other tool fire can be abused by human beings. In many religions they would burn people as sacrifices to their gods, that is a corruption of the use of fire, making sacrifices to the gods as gruesome as possible. In most cases people burnt because they didn’t believe in that particular god, denying them their taste of meat.

Fire gave humans a glimpse of freedom, their creativity that is inert inside them. To then burn them for using their mind is a corruption of the use of fire. Fire is a source of warmth to keep the shelters more comfortable. It cooks the food making it more palatable and kills the germs making people healthier. Coming to the very basics of human survival, a warmer shelter ensures more people survive, that is the job of fire. Cooked food is more palatable and has less germs making sure people lived longer and the food will last longer. Every night we must find shelter, a warm shelter is best. Every day we must eat, better food that is healthier, one cannot hunt everyday, fire provided a way to preserve the food and allow it to remain palatable, like smoking. Because there was fire, dried preserved food, especially protein from meat could be cooked later, much food can’t be eaten if it is not cooked after being dried and smoked.

Given that all relationships are random, and everything is in a relationship. That a human being is alive is random, and that they continue to live for as long as possible is also random, but death is a certainty, it is the when that is unknown. From the very beginning, the human relationship with fire was about increasing the chances of the human to survive to postpone death, warmth in the shelter in cold times, there is not always a warm body to share the heat with, all huddling up. It cooked the food, helped in preserving it further increasing the chances of survival. Sacrificing somebody to the gods reduces the chances of survival, reduces creativity because one is not allowed to think outside that box. Burning people’s homes reduces the chances of people to survive.

Every good thing you see around you, the way you hear this podcast is the result of fire, of understanding that fire allows great creativity, allowing imagination. This world we exist in, the most effective tool for humanity, has been fire, for those who understood what it means to have a different taste in meat brought about by the courtesy of fire. The food in your fridge is there because of fire. Slaughtered far away, transported by transportation that uses fire in the engine. The engine being metal was separated from it’s ore by fire. The tires where made in factories that need fire. It is wrapped in plastic that was separated from crude oil by fire.

Those running from war are running from instruments created by fire, many dying for literally for thinking the food that is blessed is by a better spirit, god than the other human, when even if the food is not blessed it is the fire that cooked it. There are lots of reason for war, all the tools of war, though from the human imagination would not be possible without fire.

As our knowledge in quantum mechanics increases, the age of fire is coming to an end. Fire is inefficient for todays world, but it has carried us for over 200 000 years. Fire is needed for the photons associated with it. Electricity was once mostly from coal; we can get it from the sun. Engines can be driven by hydrogen creating water pollution that has to be considered, harmless until there is too much. Fire gives out an array of photons, we can select photons more easily, use infrared, microwaves, visible light, all have their specialized uses thanks to our knowledge of photonics and quantum mechanics.

Gratefulness for fire; the greatest tool humans have had, and we would never be at this level if people had not accepted what different tasting meat means, choice.

Wind Powered Train

source: wikipedia commons

 The picture below shows a windmill in general. This windmill is used to generate power.

The blades of the windmill have an initial shaft/ sometimes called slow shaft that is connected to a gearbox. 

The gears are designed in such a way that the shaft connected to the generator spins much faster than the initial shaft, the generator produces electricity and can be connected to a grid or a battery.

Below is an electric train, it could also be a diesel train, the type of train does not matter what we are after is using less fossil fuels and creating less emissions. 

The front view of the train looks like below, it could be diesel, or electric collecting power from a third rail, or it collects power from a pantograph. 

Below is a diagram of a controlled wind jet on side of train, this controlled wind turns blades/ a wind turbine. 

The wind turbines are attached to a gearbox through retractable shaft, through an initial shaft and then connected to a generator that produces electricity that is stored in a battery. This batter depending on design can be used to power lights or the train itself aiding the diesel train or the electric train meaning it is drawing less power from the grid. The shaft is retractable because the whole system needs to be retractable and allowed to come out when train hits a viable speed so that there is enough wind to turn the blades or in case a train is going through a tunnel that is not wide enough, or once battery is fully charged there is no need to generate more power. This will add distance for train if it is diesel, add distance to train if it is powered by lithium batteries or hydrogen fuel cells. 

The train with fins is shown below, be it diesel, uses lithium batteries, hydrogen fuel cells or a pantograph. 

The turbines can be added to the top of the train.

When added to the top the view of the train looks like below.

Forget about patents, who can afford looking after one, enjoy the mind. Now if you are a scientist not a politician you will understand that the power of this can be equivalent to a windmill generator that powers into megawatts, depending on how much space of a train car one is willing to take, it is not size of the turbines, its speed of the rotation of shafts, wind could make a train never needing power from the grid or fossil fuel as battery can always be charged. That is a reality. :-D
