A declassified CIA document described the extrasensory perception experiments that the Soviet KGB did

According to a memo from the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) released at the request of Black Vault’s online archive, in the eighties, two scientists soviets, Konstantin Buteyko and Vlail Kaznachev, conducted a series of experiments looking for paranormal weapons: they put the Extrasensory perception, the supposed ability to obtain information or influence objects and people using the mind alone.

The document of the American agents summed up the research, finding that Buteyko had “perfected his methods” by placing the subjects in a room with two concave mirrors at opposite ends they had the ability to “Concentrate Psychic Energy.” The delusional investigation was framed in the fever of the Cold War and it was already mentioned in the book Mind Warsby Ron McRae, ed Paranormal warfareby Martin Ebon, in those years.

Until this memo Buteyko, engineer and physician, was recognized for the creation of the Buteyko method of breathing, a practice that sought physical well-being through the respiratory cadence using techniques similar to those of the yoga. But his quest for health seems to have gone one step further, and it was Investigated by KGB to add an original strategic branch.

In 1987 the The Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union awarded 450,000 rubles to the State Research Institute in Clinical Immunology to the effects of dioxin, a composition of Orange cop, in the human immune system, ”the cable presented the general report. “Some of them between 1987 and 1988 3,000 patients received non-traditional medical treatment at the Institute of Clinical and Experimental Medicine [IKIEM]; this treatment included the use of paranormal methods”.

They are described as follows: a The physician “concentrated on transmitting psychic energy to the patient” while connecting in such a way that he could “empathize with any discomfort” that the subject felt. That knowledge would enable him to steer as he could “Transferring bioenergy” to the patient and it would help you to control or cure photos. Soviet scientists had great ambition: they even wanted the Heart problems.

These frontier stories with science fiction took place in the Laboratory for non-traditional treatments (LNT), whose owner was Buteyko, within the IKIEM, in Novosibirsk. “The LNT provided patients with a special diet and rest regimen.” Since the paranormal experiments to cure “asthma, sinusitis, allergies, chronic bronchitis, pneumonia and coronary artery disease.”

The second specialist, Kaznacheev, was described by the agents of the CIA as “a recognized authority on extrasensory perception” whose field of practice was to conduct experiments in which volunteers “they tried to send each other images of geometric shapes, such as squares or circles ”.

In the mid 80’s “IKIEM and an unknown institute of Leningrad participated in several successful ESP experiments”, Detailed the cable. Soviet academic Kaznacheyev described how mental transfer attempts of geometric images were made in both scientific facilities. Kaznacheyev did not say how many researchers took part in these experiments nor if the Soviet army showed any interest in the results of these experiments ”.

Perhaps the biggest revelation of these cables is something like the ESP was the subject of legitimate investigation in the former Soviet Union and also of interest to American spies during the Cold War. As a continuation of the military arms race by other means: the psychic arms race.

It all started in February 1960 then the french magazine Science and life on the cover published that the United States one “Strange experience on board the Nautilus.” The first nuclear submarine was under the ice of the North Pole in 1958 while one of the crew members communicated telepathically with a military base in Maryland; there a student of the Duke University similarly sent him a series of decks. According to Science and life not only had such an experiment taken place: the Nautilus crewman had received exactly as he had identified 70% of the cards.

The report, false, the US Navy went back to the advice of military advisers Rand Corporation to President Dwight Eisenhower on the benefits of telepathic communications. The Kremlin could not verify the alleged success of the “Nautilus experiment” and decided the criteria on the basis of which Stalin had banned research into paranormal phenomena in the 1930s: materialism. Perhaps science could determine that if it were a testable phenomenon, it was material. The potential of a family of paranormal weapons for the coming war was worth it.

According to the book of Ebon, in the Soviet Union, a series of secret experiments began to explore ways to “explore the potential possibilities of telepathic communication, telekinesis and bionics“To make special weapons for” the Soviet and KGB military. “The program included large expenditure on the research of the Remote viewing, which allowed a spy to see what was happening thousands of miles away.

In McRae’s book that is added in 1977 Jimmy Carter asked for a report on Soviet research into extrasensory perception; the president had met the mentalist Uri Geller and he was convinced of the possibility of the threat of such a thing at the hands of the KGB. McRae went on to argue that the Nautilus case may have been a lie, but in the The United States had a history of 30 years of research into paranormal phenomena in the mid-1980s conducted by the CIA, the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, NASA and Military Intelligence ”.
