Psychologist Wolf Grigorevich Messing: biography, interesting facts from life, photo

Probably, there are few people who do not know who Messing Wolf Grigorievich is. This man lived an amazing life, predicted and even changed the fate of people. He was known and feared, believed and did not trust. Stalin himself favored the clairvoyant, allowing to conduct concerts throughout the Soviet Union.

Childhood

In 1899 on September 10, in the place near Warsaw, at that time belonging to the Russian Empire, Gure-Kalvary was born Wolf Grigorevich Messing - a man famous for his outstanding supernormal abilities. His parents were very religious and wanted their boy to become a rabbi. However, Volka (the name of Wolf Grigorievich) resisted such a fate in every possible way. Then they went to the trick and bribed the colorful vagabond to play in front of the boy the messenger of God. Volka believed the vision and went to study. However, two years later, having met that same vagabond, he recognized in him an angel who appeared with a sign and understood that his parents had simply deceived him. Then the boy, disappointed in everything, left the house, stealing money from donations in the yeshiva.

He took the train to Berlin, but, as there was not enough money for the ticket, he hid under the bench. When the controller came up and asked for the ticket, he was very frightened, but picked up a piece of paper from the floor and with his whole being dreaming that she would turn into a ticket and submit it. The ticket operator responded calmly to taking a piece of paper, punching it out and wondering why the boy was going under the bench if he had a travel card and there were plenty of empty seats in the car.

So young Messing learned about his ability to inspire people with an illusory reality.

Youth

Opened ability did not help at first in life. The boy worked as a messenger in a guest house and did everything that was told to him. Money almost did not earn it. And one day even fainted from hunger right on the street. He was taken to the hospital, and not having found a pulsation, was sent to the morgue. But some trainee still felt the heartbeat. At the same time, Abel was present, a very famous neurologist and psychiatrist. The professor became interested in the boy and began to teach to control his body, and then introduced to the man who became his first impresario, the purpose of a meeting.

So young Messing began his career. He went to the crystal coffin and immersed himself in a state resembling death, receiving considerable money for it. Over time, he learned to read other people's thoughts and turn off the pain, turning into a real artist.

The future psychic Messing Wolf Grigorievich became more and more famous. In 1915, his speech was even visited by Sigmund Freud and Albert Einstein, but unfortunately, they left no notes about this fact.

In 1937, in Warsaw, in his speech, he predicted the death of the Führer, if he moved the troops to the east. For this artist and his family were arrested, but thanks to his super abilities he managed to escape. He crossed the Western Bug River and found himself on the territory of the Soviet Union, where Wolf G. Messing started his new life.

Mature years

Russian psychic almost did not know, and for the rest of his life, after living in the country of the Soviets, he really did not learn it. Here he was hardly known, but after joining the concert brigade in the Brest region, he became an artist Messing Wolf Grigorevich. His biography, apparently, became known at the very top of power. And once, right at the concert in Gomel two NKVD workers came on stage and, asking the audience for forgiveness, took the artist to Stalin, whom he later met more than once.

After this meeting, Messing gets a new start in life, he begins to pay fabulous fees.

When the war began, Wolf Grigorevich (at his own request or under the compulsion of the NKVD) donated his money to two aircraft. It is known that at that time he was even arrested and interrogated. It was during a tour in Tashkent.

Messing continued his trips with performances. On Stalin's personal order, he was allocated a one-room apartment in Moscow on Novopeschanaya Street, where he lived happy years of life with his wife Aida Mikhailovna since 1954.

Old age

The remainder of life Wolf G. Messing lived alone in another, more spacious apartment on Herzen Street, already without his beloved wife. He was surrounded by two dogs (Mashenka and Pushinka), as well as his wife's sister.

He knew about the date of his death, and the closer she became, the more phobias appeared in the old man. However, Messing said that he was not afraid of death, it was simply unendingly sad that this very special experience of living life on Earth would never happen again.

Once, when he was taken to the hospital, leaving the house, he looked back and said that he would never return here again. The operation was conducted by a first-class surgeon, and she was successful. But after complications began, the kidneys refused. The legendary telepath Messing Wolf died.

Years of his life: 1899-1974.

Tour

During his life an outstanding person, artist and psychic managed to travel to different countries. He played a lot and went, of course, in the Soviet Union.

Despite the materialism that prevailed in the country, Messing managed to open the veil of the unknown and to show by his own example the existence of another, intangible world.

Very often in his speeches he read the thoughts of people and performed them. For example, it was typical to guess what was in the hands of a certain person or written words on paper, which was sealed in an envelope.

All these numbers seemed fantastic to the audience. Although skeptics, of course, came up with a rational explanation for them, speaking of his excellent possession of elementary idiomotorics.

Personal life

In Novosibirsk, Wolf G. Messing met and fell in love with a woman, Aida Mikhailovna Rappoport, who became a reliable friend, an assistant at the shows and wife.

They lived side by side happy years, but in 1960 Aida Mikhailovna died suddenly from cancer. And Messing knew about her forthcoming departure. He remained alone and for six months did not give any concerts, very hard experiencing loss.

But as time went on, he began to gradually come to his senses and even occasionally perform. Wolf Grigorievich was surrounded by close people, but life began to weigh down and the talent given to him turned into punishment.

Close

Messing was afraid of having children, so he did not have his own. But among the environment were close people, to whom he treated with paternal care.

One of them was Tatyana Lungina, who met him for the first time in June 1941, when she was only 18. Later, she used her notes about meetings with Messing to write an autobiography "About herself."

Many people described the wonderful stories, of which participants became, and where the main character was the psychic Messing Wolf.

Interesting facts from life

Vadim Chernov told about the incident at the dacha, when everyone went to the forest for mushrooms. Messing did not like this occupation, but along with all also went to the forest. All dispersed in the search for mushrooms. After a while Vadim went out into the clearing, where he saw Messing, sitting on a log, surrounded by local children. The guys squealed with delight and asked Wolf Grigorevich about the non-existent little animals they saw and played with them. When Vadim approached and Messing noticed him, they met with glances and the clairvoyant said that here was the beast to him. The young man suddenly saw a bear, but did not get scared at all, and around the children there were numerous squirrels, bunnies and hedgehogs. However, most of all he remembered a basket filled to the top with excellent mushrooms (although until the meeting with glances he knew that it was empty).

Another case was described by Tatyana Lungina. It was a session in the Central House of Writers, when Wolf G. Messing agreed to demonstrate the cataleptic state. He was already middle-aged by that time, so in case he could not get out of it himself, he was assisted by Dr. Pakhomova. Forty minutes after Messing was tuned, she stated that the pulsation had ceased to be observed. The audience put on the stage two chairs, on the backs of which were laid a lifeless body (heels and nape). It was like a tree. The heaviest man sat on the belly of Messing. And even after this, the body did not jerk one iota. A psychiatrist doctor pierced the muscles of her neck right through. There was no blood, no other reaction of the body. Then Messing asked a question, to which he did not answer, but when a hand was put in the pen and an album was framed, he raised his hand like a robot and wrote an answer on it.

With the help of medical manipulations, he was taken out of this state, but it was not easy for a 64-year-old medium. And a few days later he continued to remain unsociable and taciturn.

Gift or punishment

In old age, the gift began to weigh heavily upon Messinga. He was tired of other people's thoughts, which in general were far from the most pleasant. If in his youth everything was much easier, then in his old age he treated his gift as punishment. After all, he knew everything in the smallest detail about his future, and all the miracles that he demonstrated to the public have long become a routine for him.

He knew that many people envied the gift, thinking that if they could do so, they would unscrew entire mountains. However, Volodymyr Grigorievich argued that there can be no advantages in life from talent, and therefore there is no need to envy. If a person is decent and is not going to commit any unlawful actions, no gift will not give him superiority.

Volf Grigorievich Messing, whose photo is shown below, in the last years of his life turned into a gloomy pessimist.

Messing and the greats of this world

Telepath was interested in the highest ranks and the powers that be. Hitler, Stalin, Khrushchev - they all knew Messing, and some of them even made predictions.

Hitler, he did not see, but foresaw his death, for which he almost paid with his life.

Stalin wanted to personally verify the gift of Messing. To this end, he first offered him a hundred thousand rubles in Sberbank, presenting an empty piece of paper. When it was possible, the poor cashier, who gave out the money, received a heart attack. Fortunately, he was rescued. In addition, Messing himself went to Stalin without hindrance himself through all the patrols, and also left him, waving the leader from the street with his hand. When asked how it was possible, Wolf Grigorievich said that he simply inspired everyone that he was Beria.

However, the psychic did not always observe political caution, and at a time when almost everyone in the country was convinced of the friendship of Nazi Germany and the country of the Soviets, Messenger Wolf Grigorievich predicted quite another development of events. His biography was almost over again. He said in his speech, answering a question from the audience that he saw Soviet tanks on the streets of Berlin. Despite the fact that his concerts were temporarily canceled, he was not arrested. Later, when the war began, the artist continued his activities.

Predictions

In addition, that Wolf Grigoryevich predicted death to Hitler, predicted the war, he also named the date of victory (eighth of May) at one of his speeches. True year was not named. But in the first days of the war he was summoned by Stalin to the Politburo, where he predicted victory for the Soviet troops and named the year and month.

Stalin followed the predictions that the psychic Messing Wolf had been doing . His biography has acquired all sorts of legends, sometimes difficult to distinguish from those that actually happened. But on the day when the act of surrendering Germany was signed, Stalin sent a telegram to Messing, where he noted the accuracy of the predicted date. And this is an indisputable fact.

It is also said that the leader of the peoples asked the telepath and his date of death. But the latter, having foreseen the awkward question, said that he would not answer, but at the same time promised to no one and never talk about it.

It is known that the psychic secretly led a green notebook in which he recorded prediction concerning both the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, the events in the USSR, the USA and Israel. However, it disappeared without a trace after the death of Messing.

The life of this mysterious man was cut off on October 8, 1974. The place where Messing Wolf Grigorevich is buried is Vostryakovskoe cemetery.
