Hypno-legend Dave Elman defined hypnosis as "Hypnosis is a state of mind in which the critical faculty of the human mind is bypassed, and selective thinking established."

 

This definition remains one of the most popular. Indeed a quick search on this forum brings up 15 pages of results that use it.

 

What do you think happens when the critical faculty is bypassed?

 

If you were hypnotised to not be able to see a table in front of you and succeeded in experiencing that hallucination do you think you would you still be able to do a critical thinking puzzle in a book that rested on that invisible table?

 

If so, why?

To everyone who would like to understand what I am saying: Simultaneous is the operative word in that single tasking frame of awareness. Fluctuations are waves not particles. ;-)
