Christ breaks the spell
SUPPOSE TWO PEOPLE, we'll call them John and Linda, are walking down the street. Linda sees a window sign with an invitation to come in and be hypnotized. She's game for anything. So John follows along as she marches into the office. After a discussion, the hypnotist places Linda in a trance. During this experiment, he plants a posthypnotic suggestion in her mind—when she hears the word blue, she will feel the impulse to react negatively. Then the hypnotist wakes her up from the spell.
Jesus' life illustrated a true way to defend our consciousness. It showed us what it means to be entirely free of thinking a single hypnotic thought.
