Over the past 25 years, Soviet scientists have reported that abilities
such as e,&&.rasqq3orj_perceVtion, clairvoy.-tn-c-c-.-`anT -teli-atby have been
demonstrat-ed in the laboratory unde`F--Tf-gd-r-6uslX controlled conditions..

For oany years, any attempt to study telepathic phenomena was de-
nounced in the Soviet Union as mysticism and Idealism. Froin 1922 to 1959,
however, thi.-T attitude gradually changed. Official rccognition of para-
psychology as a legitimate science was promptcd to a considernble extent
by the Pnrty'-s recognition of other disciplines which had prvvintj.s_11_@@=

According to both Soviet and Czech researcheis, one major adv3ntage
of studying psychocronic generators is the reproducibility of their cf-
fects; in addition, they can be activated by nearly anyone, with or with:-
'@ilitic4. The devices r3ay have other practical
out any special psychic a
applications not related to parapsychology. The Czechs claim t1lat irra-
diation of seeds with the energy enhances plant growth, and that Industrial
pollutants have been precipitated out of water by itS*3Ction (Figure 7).
These clalms m@y be open to qucstion, since in 1972, Zdenek Rcjdak. hund
of the Psychotronic Research Section of the Czechoslovakian Society for
Science and Technology, tcruied the experiments wi.h plants and water
"ineffective."
A recent newspaper 3rticle,36 quoting Pavlita, reported that his
.generators could serve as weapons; no further details were given. No
information is available on Czech efforts to develop psychotronic weapons,
but Pavlita has stated that some forms of his devices can exert boLh
favorable and unfavorable effects on living organism *s, including man. In
experiments with snails exposed to the energy from a generator. a state
similar to hibernation resulted. When flies were placed in the ga p of a
circular generator (figure 6) they died instantly. In another test,
Favlita aimed a generator at: his daughter's hca@ from A distance of
several yards. Her electroencephalogram (FEG) changed, she became dizzy,
and her equilibrlu'm was disrupted.
In their present form and size, PavIi::a'3 devices could probably
exert an effect on humans nc only relativeL-, s. j---t ranpe. It is po%:;Ible
that their size could be enlarged or their energy amplified, thereby ex-
tending their range. If the Czech claims for these device-,; are vaJid.
bioloRical energy might he an effective antipersonnel weapon. It would
be difficult to defend against. since it opparently penetrates most com-mon
forms of insulation and its reported effects (changes in brain wave char-
actcristics disturbance of equilibrium, dizziness) could restilt in
personality-changes or physical discomfort which might alter combat
effectivenes.
Soviet or-Czech perfection of psychotronic weapons woiild pose a
severe threat to enemy military, embassy. or secur.;Ly fuiiLtions. The
emittcd energy would he silt-.nt and difficult to detect clectrontcally
(although thi'Sovicts claim to have developed eff#@ctivc biological energy
sensors) and the only power source required would be the human op4@rntor.

CONCLUSIONS
Soviet and Czechoslovakian researchers have accepted the reality of
paranornal. events and are primarily concerned with the formulation of a
unificd theory.to describe the basic energy transformations involved.
The Soviet emphasis on the electrostatic and electromagnetic componerts
of t@e enerEy mny play an Important role in the final dctQrmination (-f
the nature of psychical phenomena. This emphasis on enerzetics or i7cer-
action effects has lead to the concept that man must be investigated as a
co=pletc,,intcgrated unit.
Soviet and Czech psychotronic research will eventually be appli(d to
ht== problems. As this occurs, the question will arise whether thto@
knowledge and the equipment developed will be used for the enhancemet-t of
hu-nan freedom and socicl development. or for regimcnt3ti0l) and enslavement.
Pgychotronics could conceivably play a role in contributing to the st,rvival
of the human spFcies; by emphasizing the interconnections between all living
beings, it should elp to reduce human aggressive tendencies. By tht- same
token. it could also be applied to increase such aggressive tendencics and
it has powerful potential for use as an effective weapon against groups of
men and key leadcr.s.

Ine Soviets

medical techniques can be beneficial, but when misapplied, can cause
