Our subconscious fear of the future makes tus try to look younger than we really are. You can exploit that too. Man feels drawn to whatever is banned. So you can intensify this feeling too, making it irresistible. And then, quite independently of our desire and will, envy, vanity, fear, hatred and the desire to kill flair  up   in  us...  The  border   between   the   conscious   and subconscious  mind  is quite elusive, the former flows into the latter and that is what constitutes one's inner self.

After subjecting a person to radiation and mind-bending drugs the subject's character can be ruined, his ego is lost and he becomes a biochemical automaton  without a soul, emotions. He is nothing more than a  zombie  and  a  slave. Thus we violate the cosmic, moral laws and taboos. Now  everything is permitted.
Once we enter the era of mind-bending soul-enslaving drugs, mankind will be unable to develop even to the level of feudalism. Perhaps it would be the end of life itself, the apocalypse which al l of the world religions have  warned  us about  for centuries.
The prospect  of  a  population  of zombies  is  not just  a nightmare, but also a reality. Maybe all those coups and  wars are experiments which leave entire nations and continents Zombified? Perhaps a well-hidden third force exists, with the power and resources to initiate and control these processes? A third force that dreams of dominating the world  by  means  of manipulating the population's psyche?
What about the hundred billion dollars which has been stashed away in foreign banks by the CPSU? What is  that money meant  for? One hundred billion is only the amount we know of. The truth about the full amount of stolen money will certainly remain the secret of the century.
Before Hitler came to power there were millions of jobless in Germany. The people were impoverished , utterly dissatisfied and ready for anything. The situation in this country resembles that of Germany in the  early  thirties.  The same impoverishment , discontent, uncertainty and corruption . Society longs for an immediate change for the better. Such a society will believe anything; indeed it ardently wishes to be deceived.  Millions  of  our  fellow-countrymen   are  prepared  to follow any  politician  who  promises  them  a  better  life immediately.  I  am  afraid  that  such  a  politician  will  manifest himself soon, if he has not already done so.
All our lives we have been fed a diet of fairy-tales: communism by 1980! A separate flat for each family by the year 2000! And now , to and behold,  there  is  an  absolute vacuum. And yet nature does not tolerate a vacuum ...

Much has been written about the hypnotic powers of Hitler and the mass psychosis of the German people. However, very little has been written in this respect about Stalin although the universal  "Hey!"  of  the  Homo  Soveticus  was  the  very definition of mass psychosis. Our population has  been Zombified for several decades now. Now  and  then  we  read short items about i t in the press.  What is it, this third force that secretly governs us? Does i t really exist?  Where  will  the hundred billion dollars surface? Which kinds of political movements is it intended to support? What kind  of  secret scientific research projects will this money finance? And, most importantly , what are they ultimately hoping to achieve  with these billions?
A t first glance these questions seem contrived. I wish  I was wrong. I wish that the Bulgarian Academic Todor Dichev would prove to be wrong. I wish we would ...
But then l remember how a few years ago a man came to the Sun Corporation and tried to sell us some pills or powder which suppressed will-power.
-              "What do I need them for?" I asked.
-              "Well, Kirsan Nikolayevich. After all you are an important businessman and see a lot of people every day. You are a big wheel, as it were. Let us suppose that you have to talk someone into something ... Well , you only have to pour some of this stuff into their coffee and you are away. No problems! No unpleasantness  and  no  bad  consequences.  Your  counterpart will simply sign everything over to you.
I refused to buy the medicine. But I am sure that chemist went elsewhere and found another buyer. Once moral law is removed then everything  is permitted. And how many such scientists are there at work in this country? How many physicists and chemists are in possession of secret formulas?

Every morning I find a pile of newspapers on my desk. I run them through. Now and again I read a short article about our grossly underpaid scientists. We have no means to fund their research or their wages, and so scientists have no choice other than to leave for the countries of the third world. These countries need them since their authorities are bent on creating nuclear, atomic and other weapons. They have the  means to fund their work. Our country cannot do this. We can afford to finance the Good-Will Games but we cannot support the best brains of Russia. According to the poet Tyutchev "Russia cannot be comprehended by reason alone". There has always been an over-abundance of talent in Russia.

So what is wrong with us? Is Russia simply ill fated or have we perhaps dropped out of world progress and stopped motionless on the roadside? Every now and again we  take a step forward, then we retreat and stop dead in our tracks again not knowing where to go, what to do and who is to blame.
I  often  recall  the  words  of  the  Bulgarian  visionary Vanga:
- "You are now at the end of a hard trail. Soon the skies above your people will clear. You will  be  recompensed  for your suffering. I can see flowers which means that the glory­ days of your nation are approaching."
