Abstract: In a previous paper we showed that Weyl equation possess superluminal solutions and moreover we showed that those solutions that are eigenstates of the parity operator seem to describe a coupled pair of a monopole anti-monopole system. This result suggests to look for a solution of Maxwell equation partialF^{infty}=-gJ with a current J as source and such that the Lorentz force on the current is null. We first identify a solution where J={gamma}^{5}J_{m}is a spacelike field (even if F is not a superluminal solution of the homogeneous Maxwell equation). More surprisingly we find that there exists a solution F of the free Maxwell partialF=0 that is equivalent to the non homogeneous equation for F^{infty}. Once this result is proved it suggests by itself to look for more general subluminal and superluminal solutions F of the free Maxwell equation equivalent to a non homogeneous Maxwell equation for a field F_{0} with a current term as source which may be subluminal or superluminal. We exhibit one such subluminal solution, for which the Dirac-Hestenes spinor field {psi} associated the electromagnetic field F_{0} satisfies a Dirac equation for a bradyonic neutrino under the ansatz that the current is ce^{{lambda}{gamma}^{5}}g{psi}{gamma}^{0}{psi}, with g the quantum of magnetic charge and {lambda} a constant to be determined in such a way that the auto-force be null. Together with Dirac's quantization condition this gives a quantized mass spectrum (Eq.49) for the neutrinos, with the masses of the different flavor neutrinos being of the same order of magnitude (Eq.50) which is in accord with recent experimental findings. As a last surprise we show that the mass spectrum found in the previous case continues to hold if the current is taken spacelike, i.e., ce^{{lambda}{gamma}^{5}}g{psi}_{>}{gamma}^{3}{psi}_{>} with {psi}_{>}, in this case, satisfying a tachyonic Dirac-Hestenes equation.
