Fwiw, that's the mechanical basis of many rituals and sacraments that one day will be understood by science. For example, the eucharist ceremony is a carefully designed sequence to produce a certain uplifting current, vaguely perceptible in some cases, but not measurable today.
For example, we know that there are these weird neutrinos, but if we were to find a method of constraining them within a pipe, the produced current might have unusual properties. Pretty much any foo flowing within another type of foo will create a new type of current.
