Every living being has magnetic power and emotion and by taking resort to certain spiritual practices we can further develop the magnetic power. We can have a greater concentration of this power in our physique. We can also transfer it to other organisms.

One gets a sense of achievement from this power if one strengthens it with emotion. For the energy generated through a blending of magnetic power and emotion is found to be extraordinarily powerful. It has the potential to unravel many mysteries which otherwise remain unknown.
Principles of Hypnotism

Principles of Hypnotism

Hypnotism, like any other science, is based on certain concrete principles. No doubt it has remained shrouded in the thick layers of secrecy for many years, which also explains why it remained stagnant. But the little we know of it has proved to be highly valuable in that it contributed a lot to improving the quality of life.

Outstanding Western and Eastern masters of hypnotism have formulated the following concrete and significant principle in this field. One must closely follow these principles if one wants to emerge as a successful hypnotist:

1.  Any sane person whether man or woman can be a successful hypnotist. It recognises no distinction. It is not at all essential that one must be a genius to be a hypnotist. Again, it is entirely misleading to hold that this knowledge is divine or a God-gift. It is a science which one must learn steadily.

 2.  An insane or idiotic or mentally retarded person cannot be hypnotised. The subject or, in other words, the person to be hypnotised needs be a person of normal intelligence. He should be able to distinguish between good and bad and know well that he is a ‘subject’ and is gong to be hypnotised for a particular purpose.

 3.    It is easier to hypnotise a ‘subject’ whose age is identical to that of the hypnotist. If the ‘subject’ is pretty older or far younger the hypnotist may have either too much respect or condescension as the case may be, and not, in any case, total identity as the situation demands.

To take an example the hypnotist aged 30 may have his ‘subject’ between 20 to 40 years old. Otherwise it is feared that confronted with a ‘subject’ either younger or older than his age group, the hypnotist may not easily identify himself with such differential age-groups.

According to the Western school the more determined the ‘subject’ is, the easier he lends himself for the process of hypnotisation. The Indian school, however, holds a different view. Age, it argues, is in no way restrictive-any person of any age can be hypnotised.

The Indian school further holds that a single hypnotist can mass hypnotise hundreds of men and women at one go. It did not, for instance, take more than a moment for the ancient Indian sage Vishwamitra to hypnotise the 60,000 sons of King Sagar and work up deathly inactivity in each one of them.

4.  A ‘subject’ must not be made to act or behave in a way repugnant to the tenets of his religion or personal taste. A Brahmin, for example, cannot be made to eat non-vegetarian food during his hypnotic sleep. For, it should be noted, the ‘subject’ while undergoing hypnotisation has his outer mind which sharply reacts to anything repugnant to the tenets of his religion or personal taste. If persisted, it might break off the trance.

5.  The belief of some persons that hypnotic sleep might end up in a prolonged or endless sleep without foundation. The moment the trance is withdrawn, the sleepiness of the ‘subject’ vanishes and he is restored to his consciousness.

At time hypnotic sleep is overtaken by natural sleep, in that case the ‘subject’ sleeps a little longer and feels infinitely healthier after he wakes up.

Over ages not a single report has been received when the subject was not restored to consciousness following hypnotic sleep.

6. In the state of hypnotic sleep the inner potential of the ‘subject lends itself for a better realisation, further development and right orientation. Precisely for this reason he comes to see things far into the future or deep into the pat. Suppose, owing to a severe head injury, he forgot his own name and everything about himself and his family. Now in the state hypnotic trance, he is likely to recall what he had forgotten clean.
Hypnotic sleep helps in such cases. While asleep hypnotically he easily recall the moments of the past such as his own name, his family and the principle events of his family.

7. Hypnotic experiments have proved particularly useful for release from bad habits. During hypnotic sleep the ‘subject’ could be suggested that such and such bad habit of his is eating into his health. It is likely to help him give up the chronic bad habit. The inner mind of the ‘subject’ receives and accepts the suggestions during hypnotic sleep. He does not forget the suggestions made during hypnotic sleep after he is dehypnotised. He acts upon these suggestions, and gets rid of bad habits.

8. While asleep hypnotically one’s organs of perception and action, each one of them, remain quite active, although they appear to be dormant. In fact, one’s talent and intelligence get sharpened. He smells and hears better.

9.  Hypnotism makes the outer mind asleep by contriving an artificial sleep. Nonetheless the inner mind remains awake and lends itself to the control of the hypnotist. In this state the inner mind accepts and acts upon in whatever manner the hypnotist calls upon it to do.

10. Every care should be taken to ensure that the hypnotist is well-equipped and competent beyond doubt before he begins to experiment on his ‘subjects’. A half-baked knowledge leads to immense harm.

11.  It will be risky to presume that one can take resort to hypnotism for mere fun. For the outer mind being put to hypnotic sleep repeatedly might give rise to certain intractable complications beyond any treatment or solution. So induction of hypnosis for the sake of fun is strictly prohibited.
