minutes, whereupon she again regained control over her body. She rejoiced and carried

on. However, her gladness appeared to be somewhat premature. After a while everything
repeated again and again, and again.

Once when she was “glued” again, a suspicious person began to approach her. This
scared her. She tried to move from the spot, but was unable to move a muscle. The man
came nearer and nearer. She was already shuddering with horror, when suddenly she
regained control over her feet and rushed home like a bullet, since her house was just
round the corner! It turned out that each time when I began to influence a person in the
hall of the House of Officers, her feet were glued right at the place where she stood at
that moment. Later she told me about it, which indeed would be very funny, if it were
not for the fear which she experienced. But all was well in the end!

Also there were several curious moments during performances. I did my best not
to repeat myself and to think of something new and funny. Once I decided to arrange an
exquisite banquet for everyone who helped me on the stage. I created a lavish table with
dishes which few people could afford to buy then and the overwhelming majority of
people had never even tried them in their life. I put red and black caviar, lobsters,
crayfish and crabs and other delicacies, as well as exotic fruits—pineapples, bananas,
kiwis, etc. When I finished “laying the table”, I asked people to help themselves, but my

offer did not arouse great enthusiasm. Soon I found the reason for this reaction. When I
repeated my offer, a man timidly asked me, how much they must pay for this.

Most likely the plentitude of rare and very expensive dishes confused people. When
I under-stood the reason for the constraint, I said them not to think about it, because the
meal was free. When people heard it, they began to approach the table at first timidly
and then more confidently and to try the dishes. I asked people how did they like the
meal and everyone answered that every-thing was very delicious and very fresh, and that
they had never eaten anything like this.

I created this for the first time in my life and wanted to know what people felt, while

eating a meal “made of” pure energy. Everyone ate with pleasure and I even saw clearly
how they chewed and swallowed the food. The participants shared their feelings with
me—they felt how they appeased their hunger and felt the real satiety. I did not expect
this kind of result.

During another performance I showed people hidden treasures, chests full of jewels
and mountains of gold coins and jewelry. It was very interesting to observe how different
people with different mentalities reacted to the fact that everyone could take any amount
of treasure they wanted. I remember how one little girl, a daughter of the director of the
House of Officers, came to me holding several semiprecious stones and asked, whether
she could take them. Sadly enough, there were few questions like this. Some people,
when they heard that they could take anything they wanted and in any quantity, only
asked where they could find sacks to put their “trophies” in.

When they got sacks, they began to fill them with precious stones and gold, and

then dragged them as far as possible dreading that someone would change his mind and
demand everything back. In fact, some filled their sacks so that they were able only to
drag them along the floor, straining all muscles and dripping with sweat. This picture
caused both laughter and bitterness. When people saw the mountains of gold and
precious stones, many of them threw off their masks and showed their true self. If anyone
