| QUESTION:
Can a hypnotised person be made to do anything the hypnotist wants him or her to do?
ANSWER:
NO! People's morals are registered deep within their subconscious minds, the part of mind responsible for getting things done. Should
a hypnotist suggest they do something against their morals, they would
either ignore the suggestion or come out of their hypnotic state,
depending on how bad this suggestion seemed to them.
QUESTION:
Has it been known for a person in a hypnotic trance to refuse to come out of it and then be stuck in an eternal sleep?
ANSWER:
NO! It has never been known in the history of hypnosis, which has been practiced for over 2000 years.
Persons
under hypnosis are not in a trance, nor are they asleep. The
state of hypnosis is simply a heightened state of objective awareness.
In this state they never lose contact with their surroundings.
Due, however, to the method most commonly used to achieve that
state in an individual, the subjects are enjoying a state of relaxation
such as they may not have previously experienced. Some people may
wish to continue enjoying this relaxation and may not respond to the
suggestion to come round to full consciousness at first. In such
rare cases, there are methods to bring them round but, if they were
left alone, they would go from this relaxed hypnotic state into a
normal sleep and awaken by themselves in due course. The time
taken for this would depend upon how tired the person was feeling
before being hypnotised.
QUESTION:
Can anybody be hypnotised?
ANSWER:
YES, as long as they have a sane mind. Some
people take longer to be hypnotised than others. Generally, the
more intelligent a person is, the quicker they will accept the hypnotic
state.
QUESTION:
Is hypnotism an unnatural thing?
ANSWER:
NO!
Hypnosis is perfectly natural. It is simply a more
scientific and refined way of making suggestions to people.
People come under the influence of suggestion from the day they
are born until the day they die. The formation of our very
character is due to suggestion, firstly from parents, then from
friends, neighbours, school treachers, university lecturers, etc., and
even our environment. In short, we are all hypnotised into the way we think and act.
Our very beliefs have been instilled in us from suggestion. If we
have developed negative beliefs and bad characteristics, then the
easiest solution is to be hypnotised out of them.
QUESTION:
Does hypnotism belong to the Devil?
ANSWER:
Hypnotism
belongs to neither the Devil nor God. These are concepts which
have resulted from suggestions themselves, giving people the beliefs
they have. The acceptance of suggestion and the formation of
beliefs is part of nature itself; without it, we would have no
beliefs, no mental development nor conscious awareness whatsoever.
QUESTION:
Can hypnotherapy give miraculous cures?
ANSWER:
Our own mind and body can and does give us miraculous cures, just as it can and does give
us debilitating ailments. Hypnotherapy does not give anything
except suggestions acceptable to the subconscious mind for the
subconscious mind to adopt and react to.
QUESTION:
Will a person who has been hypnotised always be under the hypnotist's control?
ANSWER:
NO! A hypnotist never ever has his subject under his control. This
may appear to be the case when we see a stage show but the hypnotist
conducting that show has chosen the subjects carefully (not in a way
you would notice) to enhance his performance. This makes it
appear that he has absolute control. This would ensure his continued success as a stage hypnotist. Sensationalism draws the crowds. If
you were to pay close attention to the show, you would often see the
hypnotised subjects smiling when they were instructed to do a silly act
and often the hypnotist will quietly dismiss a non responsive subject
from the stage show ensuring that the illusion of his control over his
subjects continues. In respect of films!! Well, films are
fiction but they can give many people the wrong impression.
