Probing The Telepathic Mind iBilNi by Chuck Bins Mental telepathy? To most of us the power to probe another person's thoughts is, indeed, a strange phenomenon. But to Kreskin, the world's foremost mentalist, ESP is not - so amazing. "I don't even call it psychic," Kreskin asserts? . "I've always maintained that I don't have any supernatural ability. I consider it a heightened sensitivity. I've raised to a higher threshold a lot of abilities that are inherent in everyone." By directing a person to con centrate on a word or thought, Kreskin is able to visualize a facsimile of that' image in his mind's eyeoften with embar rasing accuracy. . After giving those directions to his audience at Rutgers College in New - Brunswick, N.J. , Kreskin zeroed in on a distinct image of a steering wheel. The young man who telegraphed that message stood up. v With a tight lip and closed eyes, Kreskin ascertained that the steering wheel, was in a parked car or van. For a moment he looked puzzled, yet beneath his wrinkled forehead there was a calm self-assurance that he would decipher the mental puzzle form ing in his mind. Kreskin looked the student straight in the eye. "Does the name Beth mean anything to you?" ' The abashed young' man sat down. At his live performances Kreskin - routinely recites social security numbers from inside, a woman's pocketbook 100 feet away, sniffs out his paycheck in a mental ;game of hot 'n cold and reads. thoughts from: people s past as easily as if he were reading a newspaper over their shoulder. How does he do it ? As Kreskin explains the -process; "It's almost as though I'm trying to focus on a television screen in my - .mind." . v. ;' Not all of Kreskin's thoughts, though, are in pictures. He also performs automatic writing, which he says most people can be trained to do. '1 can take a pencil ' and rest it on a pad, and when I'm conversing with you my hand would start to write and move even though I wouldn't be that conscious of what I " was writing." " ; - ' World renown Literally millions ot people worldwide have been touched by Kreskin's spellbinding skills. He is a familiar face in many foreign countries including the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. In the United States . he has appeared on 'Mike Doug las' over 100 times and both the 'Merv Griffin Show' and The j Tonight Show' over 80 times. . In Canada, the Ins3tiable desire for Kreskin's mystifying ; feats continues with regular syndicated ' broadcasts of his weekly: 'The Amazing World of Kreskin,1 y Despite his fame, Kreskin ad mits he is not Always successful. In filming the final segment of his Canadian telecast for the season, Kreskin thought he had hit upon an interesting twist to his mind reading antics: ? from , atop the Canadian National building In Toronto he would attempt to read the thoughts of a man hovering outside in a helicopter. ' ? k But when, the CTV Network filmed it, the chopper bobbed up and down in. the wind, sometimes instantly dropping ten stories, in 'the violent downdrafts. While viewers watched aghast as the pilot fought to maneuver his craft, Kreskin watched from Inside trying to visualize the passenger's thoughts on his "mind screen." After repeated attempts however time ran out and the communica tion link failed.' s r Had it been any other type of show, the scene would have been reshot. But Kreskin has always taken pride in. the. fact that his programs are never reshot - or edited (except for time). And his Canadian fans tell him that last -episode was one of his most memorable shows. ' i t The language barrier -Language posed a problem in filming a 90-minute special in Japan. Although his' programs there are . normally dubbed in Japanese, Kreskin wanted the special to be as true-to-life and credible as possible. (Unfortuna tely Kreskin didn't speak Japan ese.) "Obviously it a person doesn't think in terms of the concepts I understand, 1 can't do a darn thing. The solution was I had to think in terms of pictures." In a dramatic scene, Kreskin used interpreters to reconstruct the world tour of a ship's captain who was standing on a dock 200 miles away. . -.- Although extra-sensory percep tion has evolved into an arcane practice, It is, Kreskin says, Innate in everyone to varying degrees.1 He points out that many of the isolated jungle tribes of Africa possess some form of ESP, but he is quick to add that in our culture things are different. "I think as we grow older and : as society becomes more complex, a lot of the need for the more subtle ways of perceiving go along the way side," he said". . While most of us have let our sixth sense atrophy, Kreskin has . developed his ability, through constant practice, to a remark able degree. And the result is amazing, even if Kreskin doesn't always think so. W commlos Ksvwtt, mo. 0 MOVIE -(SUSPENSE) "You'll Like My Mother'! 1972 Patty Duke, Rosemary Murphy.
