Excerpt from Observations on Trance: Or, Human Hybernation
It may here be requisite for me to ex plain, that by the term Hypnotism, or Ner vous Sleep, which frequently occurs in the following pages, I mean a peculiar condition of the nervous system, into which it may be thrown by artificial contrivance, and which differs, in several respects, from com mon sleep or the waking condition. I do not allege that this condition is induced through the transmission of a magnetic or occult influence from my body into that of my patients; nor do I profess, by my pro cesses, to produce the higher phenomena of the Mesmerists. My pretensions are of a much more humble character, and are all consistent with generally admitted prin ciples in physiological and psychological science. Hypnotism might therefore not inaptly be designated, Rational Illesmerism, in contra-distinction to the Transcendental Mesmerism of the Mesmerists.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the curious claims that Indian holy men have the ability to bury themselves alive, existing for days or weeks with no apparent food, air, or communication with the outside world. The author, a respected scientist, approaches the topic with skepticism but an open mind, determined to uncover the truth behind these extraordinary feats. Drawing on eyewitness accounts, historical records, and his own scientific expertise, the author investigates the physiological and psychological phenomena involved in these practices. He explores the concept of self-induced trance states, known as "hypnotism," and its potential to drastically reduce the body's vital functions, allowing for extended periods of suspended animation. Through the author's meticulous research and analysis, this book sheds light on a hidden aspect of human physiology and the limits of our understanding. It challenges conventional notions of survival and the boundaries of human consciousness, offering a unique perspective on the mind's capacity for self-regulation and resilience. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
