Thetan Energy

Thetan Energy is a spiritual force which is believed to represent the source of life - or perhaps life itself, and is sometimes used to describe the human soul. Boris is a known conduit of Thetan Energy, and some theories suggest that it may be a source of power he draws on to power his internal RDS-46 reactor. Boris' natural affinity for Thetan Energy is likely due to his creator, Xenu, being an alien with a vast understanding of it.

The United World Governments have attempted to harness Thetan Energy on multiple occasions, leading to the creation of many Boris-based lifeforms such as the Borisite.
