Jedi knights and alien abduction
Jedi knights and alien abduction
When you see a star wars movie, the image of a brave and noble jedi knight who uses the power of his mind along his/her skills with a light saber to save the day. The mind powers sometimes manifest itself in controlling or influencing 'weaker' minds. In a weird way, the Jedi are connected to alien hypnosis therapy of unlocking hidden or tramautic memories with hypnotism.
When hypnosis first made the rounds, it was known as mesmerism after Franz Mesmer who believed his cures were the result of animal magnetism. It was all the rage of France until it reached a blacklash from the science establishment which then decried mesmerism a fraud and a pseudo science with Mesmer and other practioners of mesmerism banished to fringe edge of science. Only years later was the science of mesmerism given proper research under respected Scottish doctor James Braid and the practice and science of hypnosis was born. Braid dealt more with the effects of suggestion on the human mind, and disposed of the carny aspects of mesmerism.
Hypnosis is a means where a person could be placed into a trance, and the subconcious mind could be influenced by commands. Seemingly miracles could be performed by people under the hypnotic state. People could remember previous lives to minute details, perform feats of strength, and recall things with fantastic detail. There was also some research that people could influence others without commands being spoken (my emphasis), only by suggestion in their own mind. This aspect would be explored later with mind control and power experiments in the cold war era via government research during the cold war era. Most notably the 'stargate' program to develop remote spy viewing from the CIA research labs.
Hypnosis is used sometimes with alien abductees to retrieve 'lost' or hidden information from their experience. The idea is that when they are taken about a UFO, and the aliens have somehow wiped their memories of the experience and only with hypnosis can the truth of what happened be revealed. The evidence is subjective both on the subject and the qualifications of the hypnosist (one of the main criticisms of this evidence is the witness could be 'led' to construct the situation by the therapist). As it stands, we are only beginning to understand the human mind and some of the processes of hypnosis is still a mystery to this day. The process of hypnosis was critical to the first modern alien abduction case of Betty and Barney Hill. This case has more evidence to back the claims of the Hills, and the hypnosis therapy session is extremely disturbing (the therapist would not play these tapes to the Hills until after several months...one listen and you can see why).
