In 1967 the Czechs established the Coordination Group for Psychotronic (parapsychological) Research. They intentionally set as one of their principal objectives the description of the undetermined properties of the energy ‘bound to man and to animate nature. They appear to be convinced, for example, that de Broglie'’s dual concept, in which the electron may appear as a mass of inertia or as electromagnetic radiation, requires a third aspect (the vehicle of which would not necessarily be de Broglie'’s electron but possibly the mental ion or "mention" presupposed by Professor F. Kahuda), and that only then will it be possible to completely express the animate and in- animate world of matter in motion. By defining the parameters of the undefined form of energy the concept of matter in motion could gain a third aspect, and matter in motion would be defined by laws far more complex and comprehensive than at present. It is interesting to note the increasing validity of Professor L.L. Vasilev's statement that "...dis- covery of the laws of the as yet unknown form of energy bound to man will be of no less significance than the discovery of atomic energy.” Therefore it is no coincidence that theoretical physicists and plasma physicists in the Federal Republic of Germany believe that understanding of the psychical- physical interactions of living organisms will add something basically new to physics and biology. The Czechs believe that as soon as science begins to understand the properties of this new form of energy, questions of its mastery and utilization will rise to the forefront. Robert Pavlita's work, which is discussed in detail in Part II, is no small contribution in this direction. Whereas in the past parapsychology operated predominantly by the method of exceptional individual performance, psychotronics pre- supposes a new model: the living organism (man) -~processing of energy-- performance. (U) In 1982, a century will have elapsed since the foundation in England of the first Society for Psychical Research. Zdenek Rejdak,) internationally renowned parapsychologist of the Czechoslovak Scientific and Technical Society, Section for Psychotronic Research has stated, "we are convinced that psychotronics will mark this centennial with significant results in practical, applied, and basic research, in the knowledge that it will become an essential new anthropological science, one that will enhance primarily man's integrity.
