Experiments by Psychologists

Innumerable experiments by psychologists and others
on persons in the hypnotic state have shown that the
subconscious mind is incapable of making selections and
comparisons, which are necessary for a reasoning process.
They have shown repeatedly that your subconscious mind will
accept any suggestions, however false. Having once accepted
any suggestion, it responds according to the nature of the
suggestion given.
To illustrate the amenability of your subconscious mina
to suggestion, if a practiced hypnotist suggests to one of his
subjects that he is Napoleon Bonaparte, or even a cat or a dog,
he will act out the part with inimitable accuracy. His personality
becomes changed for the time being. He believes himself to be
whatever the operator tells him he is.                                                                                            A skilled hypnotist may suggest to one of his students in
the hypnotic state that his back itches, to another that his nose
is bleeding, to another that he is a marble statue, to another
that he is freezing and the temperature is below zero. Each
one will follow out the line of his particular suggestion, totally
oblivious to all his surroundings, which do not pertain to his
idea.
These simple illustrations portray clearly the difference
between your conscious reasoning mind and your subconscious
mind, which is impersonal, non-selective, and accepts as true
whatever your conscious mind believes to be true. Hence, the
importance of selecting thoughts, ideas, and premises, which
bless, heal, inspire, and fill your soul with joy.
