I looked at Ehrenwald in open disbelief. "Do you mean," I asked, "that I am dangerous to echelons of fear because I’m not afraid of Psi?" "Well, I refer to them as `hives,’ not `echelons’. But, yes. You are NOT afraid of Psi, are you?" "I’ve no idea. I’ve never thought of it in that context. But if the ASPR is a hive of fear, why are you a trustee?" "Well, to study and observe it, of course." The benefit to me (as well as to those who might take the time to study his books), as a mentor Ehrenwald was not a hard-line parapsychologist. However, he was of the opinion that certain "Psi" phenomena were right-hemisphere functions, or at least the products of a different kind of cognitive function within our species. In his EXCELLENT book, THE ESP EXPERIENCE: A PSYCHIATRIC VALIDATION (1978), Ehrenwald obliquely touched upon the topic of "fear" in his chapter 22: "The Psi Syndrome and Modern Man Against Psi." But even he avoided the issue directly -- that is, the issue of fear, the issue that induces uncertainty and thus disorder. And with this, I’ve now briefly introduced into this memoir a topic I’ll return to time and again ahead -- a topic that is absolutely necessary in that much to follow will not make complete sense without it.
