I routinely get emails from various people that live all over the world. The interactions that I have as a result of this web site is occasionally educational, usually comical, and rarely significant. But every once in a while, a true gem comes along.
This is one of those instances.
Emails from the old USSR and associated areas usually consist of desperate young Russian women looking to get out of a life of prostitution in some neighborhood bar by marrying some unwanted and terribly stupid middle aged American. Wasted emails in my opinion, because I do my hunting for desperate young women in Asia. Rarely do I get the opportunity to interact with someone who throws open the veritable door to a life that we never get to see in the west. A life of hardship and hope, a life of desire and missed opportunities. All from a true and honest gentleman who most definitely deserves more than he has the chance to achieve.
Meet Agan.
His emails, the publication of which I've discussed with him, are very telling, if you read into them. They portray life in the Ukraine, which most of us will never have the opportunity of experiencing. This is, hopefully for the rest of us, an educational foray into the world of post communism Russia.
I hope that this introduction gives Agan the impetus to tell us more. And maybe, his interaction with us one day may offer him an opportunity that he might never otherwise see.
Looking forward to hearing more...

Hi Mr. Doc!
Thanks You for the recent letter-notice on portal news russbo! I am very glad to this letter.
I write You the letter from the far country, from Ukraine. How You live? What you do also what results from it? I not often visit Your forum, as at me problems with the Internet. In Ukraine constant problems with the Internet, happens, you will buy the Internet, you will pay money, and the Internet is not present. It in Ukraine happens often.
At us there have passed the next parliamentary elections. For us, inhabitants of the country, this big misfortune. It means, that rich people with the criminal past divide the country and plunder it, the prices for products and services are risen, and fairly to earn money very difficultly. Parliamentary elections were and last year, and every year new and new troubles. Our people have got used to be obedient in days of the USSR, therefore the people look at it and are silent. For any foreigner Ukraine seems the developed country but when the foreigner lives here long time, he is surprised with a difference of the prices and poverty of the salary (in Ukraine the prices above, than in Europe and the USA), foreigners do not understand, how here there live people and why they have not died till now of hunger. In our country larceny, a deceit, immorality and an alcoholism prosper. Now the morals have turned over on the contrary: the lie is encouraged, the truth and honesty - is pursued.
I continue researches in area a chi kung and a kung fu. Recently 20 years of my continuous searches were executed exactly, but I am engaged in it much longer on time. In September, 1987 I have begun a theme of the full description of modes of breath … and I am engaged in it and now. For this time I managed to understand much in possibilities of a human body, mentality. Probably, it outside the limits of fighting arts, it something is more. Last theme, I am engaged in it about 5 months is a tracing of effects of delays of breath at an incomplete exhalation. These experiments are sometimes dangerous, as change of modes of breath influences health, but interest of knowledge above this danger. Sometimes I advise people on a theme of therapy a chi kung and kung fu training. I managed to systematise training methods, they are effective. Unfortunately, me the state does not allow to work officially, I in the country, having trained it is a lot of people, I have no right to teaching. Here for any reason communication with officials and external attributes, and real ability and talent is appreciated - not appreciated absolutely. In the beginning of this year I was invited to Spain to work by the well-known woman, the academician of psychology. She was interested by my methods of work and therapy. But my trip has appeared a deceit and tragedy. It has appeared, that, despite the popularity and a rank of the academician, this woman is engaged in a human trafic and mental slavery. Because of it I with it have quarrelled in Spain and it threatened me with murder and extorted from me 100000 euros of money. I managed to return to Ukraine, and I have submitted on it to security service, but in Ukraine to reach the truth difficultly and my statement for serious things was out of serious consideration.
I have one problem - I wish to continue the researches and I wish to have contact to interested people. But the obstacle to my researches is an absence of work, absence of fair earnings of money. I have devoted to researches the life, but live and work in such bad conditions I cannot. It is a shame to confess, but I with the wife often badly we eat, we have no money for fee and habitation, we with the wife cannot officially marry, on it there are no means. To me 38 years are fast, but I cannot get till now children and create a normal family, because of the same means. My knowledge and abilities do not admit, much is required in the field of researches on a chi kung in particular. My knowledge has the price and I do not open a secret as here everywhere larceny in everything where there is a guarantee of that my knowledge will not bring to someone 1 million dollars or more. At us the country such, what even at my wife on a summer residence of 7 cats have stolen, but on city streets weights of homeless animals run.
Dear Mr. Doc! I, of course, can be not right in something, but I have to you a request - if probably, help me with the creation, any community on a chi kung, a kung fu, probably to find contacts in the USA …. You can help to find to me contacts in the USA or other countries to whom my results are necessary? I hope, that someone in the World needs that I do. I wish to live and continue normally and adequately business to which has given all life.
I understand, that my request, probably, is not correct, or is inappropriate, but to address to me there is nobody. Unfortunately, in my country it is impossible to achieve success without the big money and the big communications with officials.
Probably, my letter will seem for You sad or bad in relation to you, for it I ask not to hold harm.
Certainly, it would be desirable to communicate more and probably to meet, somewhere in a neutral territory but as the life will develop - it is not known. Very much I look forward to hearing from You and I hope, that our correspondence will go further.
Good luck to You in all and happiness!
Yours faithfully, Agan

Hi Mr. Doc!
What news at You? Your affairs are successful?
At us late autumn, very coldly. Today the sun, but is sad.
I continue experiments. Now I compare different forms of breath. For example, properties of a gradual exhalation through a mouth and a gradual exhalation through a nose. It seems, that this same, but it not so. I am inclined to think, that the strongest forms of fight are under construction on breath through a nose. Usually consider, that the exhalation through a mouth is stronger also it truly only for an extreme situation. At long practice it can conduct to deterioration of health and painful sensitivity. If to speak about survival rate in very bad conditions, that, it seems to me, breath through a nose is more preferable. For a long time the instruction for special troops of the USSR has got to me, there too has been told, that for the greatest concentration of endurance it is necessary «to close a mouth», i.e. To use breath through a nose.
Unfortunately, I have no resource to conduct tests completely, with participation of other trainers or participants.
Life in Ukraine simply bad, very bad. Most of all I am am tormented by immorality of a life. For example, the government has informed us, that they do poor-quality heating gas, and from it our houses will blow up. Some houses are blown already up. But it is necessary also to pay for this poor-quality gas money. Interestingly, the government of the USA is capable so to arrive with the citizens?
Here such thoughts at me and news.
How Your affairs?
Successes to You!

Hi Mr. Doc!
I did not know, that You live in Thailand. I thought You live in America and have a rest in Thailand. What society in Thailand? What there it is pleasant to You?
You want, that I have written at a forum about Ukraine? But it is a forum on a theme martial arts. It will be correct? Advise where to place a theme and how it to name? I would like to tell about it in sense: a society of immorality and an expert martial arts. It is strange, but I do not find answers in the theory martial arts about struggle against meanness, a deceit, lie. If in a society it is a lot of these bad things, spirituality does not win, spirituality loses this moral fight. Many theories martial arts were created for a society of Japan, China and east people. But these theories suffer shattering defeat in the social systems constructed on other principles of morals. For example, in Ukraine larceny is not condemned by a society and if You tell about a fair way of life You will see persons of people: they will look at You as on the fool! The fair person loses fight for a life: It cannot work and receive money, it cannot make purchase without a deceit, it cannot be in transport, where a considerable quantity of drunk and openly swearing people. I it see every day when I go in a tram in the evening, these trips for me - torture. I can strike, I can strike and kill.... But I difficultly worry a life among such society. I not one. Still there were people who it understands, but they suffer, like the Samurais who have not accepted reforms of the emperor in 1870.
At us now beautiful weather and last beams of the warm sun. Soon winter. I do not love winter, it always is a lot of problems. My wife is pregnant.
Now I do experiments on different phases of a delay of breath + compression and having inflated a stomach. I search for a secret of long delays of breath and activization of potential of mentality and physiology. I am assured is exists.
You at a forum have told once, the head is ill You at a breath delay. It is necessary to do so: a breath, a breath delay, an incomplete exhalation and a breath delay, then again an incomplete exhalation and a breath delay (incomplete exhalations it is possible to do much). BUT! It is necessary to make a full exhalation! If a full exhalation not to do - 100 % will be a hypertension and a headache, blood circulation infringement.
I again am not assured of correctness of my phrases. I badly know English language and I use dictionaries and the electronic translator. I studied English language during the USSR and was ashamed of it to study: there was an opinion in a society of the USSR, the one who knows English language - necessarily spy or against the USSR. It now looks ridiculously but so was at me at school and technical school.
Kind to You of all!
Yours faithfully, Agan.
