The USSR’s leading psychic, psychotherapist and hypnotist Anatoly Kashpirovsky, held four healing sessions in Moscow. The events were attended by the Shot telegram channel.
“Treating gray hair, cancer, infertility, and a weight loss conspiracy are all done in more or less the same way: small talk, then on the floor, in a crowd of about 20 people,” – says the publication.
One of the first meetings in Moscow was attended by about 300 fans of the TV doctor.
“A meeting of this kind costs between $3,500 and $9,000. If you want the master’s full attention, you’ll have to pay $25,000 for a one-on-one meeting.” — specified in the message.
At all public sessions, the 85-year-old psychotherapist’s products are sold: magic salt, CDs with sessions, books with aphorisms, photographs of Kashpirovsky and even USB sticks with his songs.
But the Telegram journalist was unable to get through to the magician himself. Kashpirovsky is surrounded by assistants who rudely do not allow a single person to get close to the magician. One of the psychotherapist’s colleagues even threatened the journalist with impotence with the slogan about half past five.
The Telegram channel claims that Kashpirovsky earned 6 million rubles during four meetings.
“Each guest at the entrance is offered to throw a donut, apparently so that the clairvoyant can more clearly see all the ailments of his “patients” and at the same time not have to report on the money he earns from his “abilities.” But for Kashpirovsky’s merchandise you can put it on his personal card.” – says the message.
The psychotherapist’s Telegram channel posted an announcement about Kashpirovsky’s “creative meetings” in St. Petersburg from November 15 to 17. At the same time, in the chat of the same name, the magician’s followers are outraged that “journalists broke into the meeting on September 20” and began to provoke the psychotherapist and “people with their unpleasant questions.”
Anatoly Kashpirovsky became famous in the late 1980s. In 1988, he conducted five televised sessions with hypnosis and mass healings in kyiv and, according to him, cured thousands of children of bedwetting. During the kyiv-Tbilisi teleconference, a patient in a Tbilisi hospital allowed herself to be hypnotized by Kashpirovsky and underwent abdominal surgery without anesthesia. Later, the woman said that she actually experienced “monstrous pain,” but endured it because she “did not want to disappoint Kashpirovsky.” In 1989, the First Program of Central Television aired six episodes of the program “Health sessions of psychotherapist Anatoly Kashpirovsky,” during which he treated viewers remotely. Kashpirovsky gained enormous popularity, toured the country, gathered concert halls, factories and football stadiums. In the mid-1990s she moved to the United States, where she organized healing sessions for Russian emigrants.
