Greetings, comrades! In Russia it is commonly believed that cults are something related exclusively with religion. Something that only stupid and ignorant people fall prey to. And something that certainly could not exist in the great Soviet Union. But today I will tell you a story about a little-known psychologist who thought he was a god and decided to create a school named after himself. A school dedicated to raising superhumans by some...really interesting techniques. He had possessed such a good gift of persuasion that he managed to lure ifamous Soviet actors, writers and composers, as well as their children, nto his net. And even today, years after his death, his followers believe in his genius and continue his dubious medical practices.

Hey there. Somehow you found my video and decided to watch it. So let me introduce myself. I'm Sergei and I'm from Russia. My channel is about my native country. I want to tell English-speaking viewers about the real Russia, about its past and present. Unfortunately, you can find a lot of propaganda about Russia on the Internet, both from the Russian media and from the Western ones. I want to tell you about Russia, as it really is, the country in which I was born, grew up, and lived all my life.
