Some illustrations and comments on
heterosuggestion:
Heterosuggestion means suggestions from another person. In
all ages the power of suggestion has played a part in the life
thought of man in every period of time and in each country
of the earth. In many parts of the world it is the controlling
power in religion.
Suggestion may be used to discipline and control ourselves,
but it can also be used to take control and command
others who do not know the laws of mind. In its constructive
form it is wonderful and magnificent. In its negative aspects
it is one of the most destructive of all the response patterns
of the mind, resulting in patterns of misery, failure, suffering
sickness, and disaster.
