War disrupted the work, but now Vasiliev put out a clear, loud call for psi research to resume. The discovery of the energy associated with psychic events, Vasiliev said, will be as important if not more important than the discovery of atomic energy.

But apparently official ears were listening. Communist scientists — physicists, engineers, and biologists — swung into psi research. The Soviet press, all official and all censored, began carrying reports of ESP; that made us sit up and take notice. We followed the Soviet media, tracking the increasing use of humor used to subtly criticize the government. Here, however, was evidence of a much bigger change. Funded by Chester Carlson, the inventor of xerography, this ground-breaking work involved telepathic communication that could be recorded on monitoring machines.

The researchers, Drs. John Mihalasky and Douglas Dean, were friends of ours. Probably only about four or five hundred people in America knew much about these experiments, not because they were secret, but because, at the time, scientific psi commanded little interest. We read the Pravda headline in faraway Russia and realized somebody was interested.

We began corresponding with Communist psi researchers, trading articles and books and always tacking on a question or two, like, Who are the best psychics in the USSR? Messing, of course… The bits of articles sent us about Messing seemed to talk about a mentalist, a crowd-pleasing stage psychic.

Why did the physicists and engineers accept him so matter-of-factly? The mystery grew more tantalizing. In fact, we can be convinced that to survive and to exist in the environment on such a level, Wolf Messing must be thoroughly authentic. We awaited the promised continuation of About Myself, but it never appeared. Messing remained a prominent question in our minds when, in the spring of , we set sail for the First Annual International Parapsychology Conference in Moscow.

It was the first and, so far, last such conference. What about Wolf Messing? He may not use ESP in every performance, but he has great talent and can do even more than his autobiography claims. He is serious — a high compliment in scientific circles. Things got blurry fast, however, when we asked the researchers how they knew. A few bloc scientists said they had run informal experiments with Messing, all successful, and confided the obvious: he had friends in high places.

She must have gone to see him a number of times then? Well no. Just about everyone knew of him. He was famous-a holy man, a hero, a legend. Yes, this is the home of Wolf Messing, agreed the woman on the other end of the line. We very much wanted to tell Americans about his wonderful performances.

After some time, she returned to say Messing had received our letter and sends his compliments. He thanked us for our interest in his abilities. Messing the genuine, Messing the great talent remained elusive. Now his friend Tatiana has literally fleshed out the mystery. For instance, upon his arrival in Russia, Messing was put to work performing amazing mental, not psychic, feats. This is squarely in line with a long, serious history of Russian interest in prodigies — people who calculate figures instantly, people who read pages at a glance, people with photographic memories, geniuses, and idiot savants of all sorts.

The establishment, not the counterculture, spearheaded the pursuit of human potential in Soviet psychology. If one person can do such things, they said, maybe others can be trained to at least partially unlock such reserves of the human mind. And stage demonstrations taught the public that the human brain was indeed a marvel — marvel enough to make the supernatural unnecessary. Catalepsy was another standing interest of Soviet psychologists, leading them to the intermittent study of yogis and, of course, to demand a demonstration of Messing.

By the time Messing tumbled over the border into Russia, Soviet scientists had piled up voluminous research on the topic. Such research fit the physical bent of their psychology and helped demystify some seeming wonders. No doubt, it was also seen as one more promising avenue in the ongoing exploration of the ways and means of mind and people control.

Could a sensor on your throat pick up tiny traces of speech and reveal what you were thinking? In , the philosophy section of the Soviet Academy of Science was pressed to explain Messing. It was a bitter era; anything outside a very narrow norm could prove fatal. The ideomotor explanation must have seemed heaven-sent. The academicians declared that Messing was unusually sensitive to the micro muscle movements of audience participants who held his wrist as he moved about the hall performing.

That Messing might have relied on ideomotor action for some of his feats is a plausible explanation. It is a highly implausible one for the more complex and whimsical challenges dreamt up by his audiences. Messing, in his autobiography, says flatly that the ideomotor tag was pinned on him by the cult of personality i. She must become the skilled swordswoman she has always wanted to be.
