Hypnosis for Beginners: Experiments, Connections, and Applications in Magic - Paperback

by Harry Eilenstein (Author)

Hypnosis is hardly considered and used today in both psychology and magic - even though it is a simple and effective way to better understand the workings of both the psyche and magic. Hypnosis is also closely related to many other phenomena that can only be truly understood by comparing them to each other. These phenomena include everyday things such as talking in one's sleep and sleepwalking, as well as more threatening things such as political propaganda and mass hypnosis, furthermore magical phenomena such as expansion of consciousness, transference of consciousness, initiations, the Indian darshan, invocation, remote hypnosis, hypnotic combat, possession, the Tibetan phowa, the spiritus familiaris, as well as many skills from the field of advanced combat techniques such as remote thrusts, among others. This book describes the different methods of hypnosis and their possible applications, as well as their possible side effects.
