Зөвлөлтийн үед олон сая үзэгчдийг байлдан дагуулж байсан сэтгэл зүйч, гипнозч Анатолий Кашпировский Москва хотноо таалал төгссөн тухай түүний гэр бүлийнхэн мэдээллээ.
1939 онд Украйн улсад төрсөн Анатолий Кашпировский 1962 онд Анагаах ухааны дээд сургуулийг төгсөж, сэтгэцийн эмнэлэгт 25 жил ажилласан туршлагатай нэгэн байв. Тэрээр 1989 оноос Зөвлөлтийн төв телевизээр “Эдгээх сесс” нэвтрүүлгээ хүргэж, 200 гаруй сая хүнд хүрч байсан нь тухайн үеийн нийгмийн онцлох үйл явдал болж байлаа. Хэдийгээр Оросын Шинжлэх ухааны академи түүний аргыг шинжлэх ухааны үндэслэлгүй хэмээн үгүйсгэж байсан ч тэрээр насан эцэслэх хүртлээ өөрийн үйл ажиллагааг үргэлжлүүлсээр иржээ.
Зөвлөлт Холбоот Улс задран унасны дараа тэрээр улс төрд хөл тавьж, 1993 онд ОХУ-ын Төрийн Думын гишүүнээр сонгогдон ажиллаж байв. 1995 оны зургаадугаар сард Будённовск хотын эмнэлэгт болсон барьцаалах үйл явдлын үеэр тэрээр хэлэлцээрт оролцож, босогчдын удирдагч Шамиль Басаевтай ярилцан тодорхой тооны барьцааны хүмүүсийг суллуулахад нөлөөлсөн түүхтэй.
Түүнийг хорт хавдрын улмаас олон эрхтний дутагдалд орж нас барсан хэмээн ар гэрийнхэн нь мэдээлсэн бөгөөд оршуулгын ёслол аравдугаар сарын 8-нд Москвагийн Троекуровское оршуулгын газарт болох юм. Тэрээр гуравдугаар сар хүртэл цахим хуудсаар дамжуулан “эдгээх сесс”-ээ үргэлжлүүлэн явуулж байсан билээ.

Anatoly Kashpirovsky, the Soviet-era hypnotist whose televised “healing sessions” drew enormous audiences in the late 1980s, died on Saturday in Moscow at the age of 87.
“Anatoly Mikhailovich passed away from advanced cancer that had spread to his lungs and brain,” Kashpirovsky’s nephew Yury Mamayevtold state media.
“There was multiple organ failure, meaning that the affected organs simply stopped functioning as a result of the cancer,” the TASS news agency quoted Mamayev as saying.
A representativesaid earlier that Kashpirovsky suffered “sudden” cardiac arrest following a sharp drop in blood pressure.
Born in Soviet Ukraine in 1939, Kashpirovsky graduated from the Vinnitsa Medical Institute in 1962 and spent 25 years working as a psychiatrist in a regional psychiatric hospital.
He became a household name in the 1980s as public interest in the occult grewacross the country during Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev’s perestroika reforms.
Soviet Central Television started airing his six-part program, “Health Sessions of Psychotherapist Anatoly Kashpirovsky,” in October 1989. Its audience was estimated at more than 200 million people.
Following the Soviet collapse, Kashpirovsky entered politics, winning a seat in Russia’s first State Duma in 1993 on the nationalist Liberal Democratic Party (LDPR)’s ticket.
In June 1995, he took part in negotiations during the Budyonnovsk hospitalhostage crisis,convincing Chechen rebel warlord Shamil Basayev to release some of the 1,500 hostages but failing to persuade him to surrender.
Later in life, Kashpirovsky clashed with health regulators over allegations that he was practicing folk medicine illegally.While the Russian Academy of Sciences dismissed his methods as “absolute pseudoscience,” Kashpirovsky defended his medical credentials andwon multiple defamation lawsuits.
He maintained a loyal following, touring and hosting “healing sessions” on YouTube until March this year.
His funeral will be heldon Thursday, Oct. 8, at Moscow’s Troyekurovskoye Cemetery, on the anniversary of his six-part television program’s premiere.
