PATTERNS AND THE BRAIN

Have you ever seen clouds in the sky and try to figure out pattern like geometrical shapes and shape of animals and god. Everyone do it in some point in their life and its very common not only with clouds but with everything around us.

One and the most fascinating trait of brain is to figure out pattern from everything around. It is hard wired to search patterns in the world, in other people, between events and even from nowhere where there is no possible connection. 

I think our mind does it to get a sense of awareness about the world and keep things familiar, and to avoid a awful state of confusion.

METAPHOR-

Have you ever seen a total stranger, and by the time you saw him, you already have a opinion about his nature and how he could be, whether he is good person or bad, funny or serious person or maybe about his Job ;) We all judge by our pattern matching brain.

what actually happen is whenever brain see something in order to understand it and make sense out of it, It brain storm and search for the information(images, sound, feel, smell) about that person if you have already seen and met him before, but if the person is a total stranger, In spit of that brain searches the most appropriately resembling information.or you can say information of the other person whom you may know, who most closely resemble him. Since the brain is that objective it also sometime assume that the stranger must be just like that person who you already know. :(
And not to mention that HUMAN BRAIN does it all in some fraction of second below the level of your consciousness or it does it in unconscious level(heavy word).

AND I THINK THE BRAIN DO IT SPECIFICALLY TO PROTECT YOURSELF SO THAT YOU COULD KNOW HOW TO BEHAVE WITH THAT PERSON. BECAUSE IN A DEEPER LEVEL WE ALL EXPECT OTHERS TO BEHAVE WITH US THE WAY WE WANT US TO BE BEHAVED. OTHERWISE IT MIGHT RESULT INTO THOUGHT CLASH AND FIGHT.
METAPHOR-
For all married guys, if your wife asks you how is she looking in some dress or lipstick. She is actually trying to get a compliment. So you better give one as soon as possible without doing any analysis. I mean to say give her what she want or EXPECT because not doing so can cause some serious damage to your life. ;)

Cheers :)

HYPNOSIS AND TRANCE

When I ask people about what they think about the word HYPNOSIS. They usually get an image of a hypnotist holding a pendulum watch and other person is watching it sway back and forth till his eyes become heavy and he goes to a different state of mind. and then he is possessed by the wizard, In that state called trance the hypnotist can make him do any thing ranging from remembering his past life to programming him to commit murder.

Which I think is totally nonsensical perception of hypnosis and it is not at all this.

Over the years hypnosis has been used by many psychotherapist to cure phobias, fears, and other problems. As I started searching about this topic few names came forward like Milton H Erickson. Milton was an american psychiatrist specialing in medical hypnosis and family therapy. He was considered to be the father of modern hypnosis. I read everything I could find about this cool chap. 

SO MY POINT OF VIEW OF HYPNOSIS is I think is a very common phenomenon that we encounter many several times in our daily life. While trance is a name given to a state we get into when we are hypnotized  According to me when we go inside and search anything in our mind or when we are involved with our-self we are in hypnosis.

METAPHOR-

When ever we are watching our favorite TV show or movie, you would observe that you become so involved in that, that you forget yourself for a moment and everything around you become invisible cos the only thing you are concentrating at that time is TV. And 1 hour seems like 20 mins. Which is a characteristic of a trance state or hypnotic state which is called as time distortion in HI FI term. 

Hence it is one example out of many of a hypnotic or trance state.

In next section I will put some light on some techniques and explanation why they work. And what goes through our mind and body when we are altered or in trance or in hypnosis.

PAIN AND PLEASURE

Over the year I have observed a fact

"THE THINGS THAT GIVE YOU INSTANT PLEASURE ARE ALWAYS DAMAGING LONG TERM"

I know most of you people may agree with me and other might not even I am a bit skeptical about the credibility of it as I think their are exceptions.

Pain and pleasure I think are one and the all concept and is a prominent part of life and HYPNOSIS too. I want you to just act as if you are an atheist for a moment like a character play actor. And has no religious background. because It might block the idea. Nevertheless The idea comes from some Freudian literature I don't have to know about it. 

WHEN CONSIDERING PAIN AND PLEASURE as the name suggest we all know what is pain and pleasure. 

RULE NO TWO-

"Everything we, human beings, do is to avoid pain and to move towards pleasure."

PLEASURE CAN BE ATTAIN-

1. physical pleasure or bodily pleasure-

.   -Eating good food :)

    -sex ;)

    -exercising :)  

    -others which include bodily involvement.

2. Mind pleasure

    -This type of pleasure is obtained when you get what you expect with others and yourself or scientifically 

     when internal image match with external image OR Event.

METAPHOR-

Have you ever wanted something and when you  get it you jump with joy. Have you ever asked a girl out and she says yes. or have you ever went to a job interview and you get selected. All the above examples has a common expectation and fulfillment syntax if you observe wisely.

YOU CAN GET PAIN-

1. Physical pain

   - bang your head on a wall

   - get your balls kicked ;)

   

 2. mind pain.

   - Like as we have seen to get pleasure their has to be a expectation match hence in order to get pain it has to be a mismatch. or scientifically when your mental image does match with what happens.

METAPHOR-

Have you ever prepared in exams by trusting your friends psychic intuition of the questions which are going to come for sure thingy. And they later don't come and you feel like crying and killing your friend head off.

Anyways its an idea and the text could get even more deep and complex in the coming sections. It might heat up and train your unused primary senses.

INDIVIDUALITY

As we already know. I guess most of us??!! that we share a different perception or view of reality which we form out of our past experiences. Examples

1. Some people may like to eat vegetarian while others may prefer non veg.

2. Some people like to use ponds soap while other uses pears soap.

3. Some people enjoy public speaking while others gets their pulse rate speedup by just even thinking about speaking in public.

So the real concept to understand is we from our past experiences and likes and dislikes somehow make certain decisions consciously or unconsciously about life. and hence we live by those rules. 

So that we as a human being could live with peace and protection. 

HENCE RULE ONE-

We all have our personal point of view or perception or a window from which we filter reality. And obviously I am not saying this for the sake of a metaphor. Scientific research has shown it. 

That's why we are able to see, hear, feel stuff in our dreams even though our eye are shut while we are sleeping.

TRY THIS-

IF you are interested try this experiment. which I think is a classic examples of two different world within two different people. All you have to do is to tell your friend or brother or sister to recognize the song that you will play. But the rule is you have to play that song by tapping on the table. :)

What usually happens that the song taps might make perfect sense to you as u play but that same song happen to sound like a random tap for listener person. 

And as you will reveal what u were playing, then and there u will see him/her making perfect sense out of it.

OR YOU CAN SAY AFTER REVEALING HE/SHE IS ABLE TO MATCH.

METAPHOR-

Have you ever thought that how can someone believe some shi##tttt thought. I think you should hang on before thinking it as that shit thought might make totally perfect sense in his own reality. 

AN INTRODUCTION

The concept and the techniques that I am going to put in this blog and the remaining pages will be based on the 10 years study I have done on the subjective experiences that we come across from the vary time of our birth to in our day to day life situations. For you to make sense of the knowledge that I am going to write here you must keep a state of open mindedness to the new ideas and thought, which I think is very necessary in order to learn new things or at-least appreciate new things. An egoistic, critical and hit on the head thinking might block the ideas to make any sense so if you have such difficulties then it might be useless to continue any further reading.
Over the years I have always been so fascinated with the ideas of controlling people thoughts and overwhelming influence of physiology and deep interest in understanding human beings and their behavior led myself to be more interested in the terms like hypnosis, psychology and drugs.
Even I have read some 100 books related with these topics and I am kind of into a familiarity with these subjects.
And I do know there are many people like me who are so very much interested in understanding hypnosis. I am through this blog have decided to explain this entire concept and how It claims to have power to cure diseases , can increase your confidence, can make you feel relaxed and can create an drugless anesthesia to its devil side as it is believed to be a evil act in most cultures.
So its a blog discusses mainly such things which are occultic, mysterious, the deep secrets and other fun pop psychology.
SO PLEASE READ IT AS I BELIEVE IT CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE BECAUSE IT REALLY HAS CHANGED MINE.
And I do assure that the next post wont be this big and cumbersome :)
