Young and old people often wish that they could learn the art of covert hypnosis. Some teenage students sit in classrooms staring intently at a teacher. They appear to be listening but may actually by wishing that they could influence the teacher to suddenly begin undressing, to the delight of the class. Instances of bizarre human behavior do exist but of course they may not be attributed to their real causes, which may or may not be hypnosis.
Films made during the Second World War depict quite extraordinary human behavior. Mature and intelligent people strut about, stick out their arms and exclaim 'Mien Fuhrer' as though a worried looking middle aged man is a god. In retrospect it seems as though a good portion of an entire nation were somehow hypnotized. It may have been through symbols, hatred or demagoguery in which they were told repeatedly what they wanted to hear.
There are of course distinctions between mob behavior and hypnotic behavior. An important one is that a hypnotized individual cannot control himself. He is in a trance and has surrendered control to another. As in a dream the natural laws of the universe cannot be broken even if an individual tries. He may be commanded to walk upside down on a ceiling and will try to do that though he cannot defy the laws of gravity. This can be entertaining for onlookers.
The nature of hypnosis places considerable responsibility on those who master the art. Online training and books are available so that anyone with tenacity and determination can learn. It is possible that much can be explained about human actions in terms of hypnosis. It is a means of power that can be used for good or evil.
Some people may be able to wield hypnotic influence over others whilst hardly realizing their power but intentional hypnosis is more intense and powerful. In both forms rapport is an essential first phase. A person who comes on stage during a public performance and one who gently subsides under the lilt of conversation have willingness and cooperation in common.
In the case of covert hypnosis the rapport between the subject and the hypnotist must be attained without the subject being aware of it. This makes the whole process more subtle and also more difficult. A person who willingly submits for entertainment or medical reasons retains some ultimate control over a situation but the person who is hypnotized without consent or knowledge is extremely vulnerable.
Some written texts have the quality of emulating life so accurately that readers willingly suspend their disbelief and imagine that they are experiencing real life. Similarly, for covert hypnosis to succeed a subject needs to set aside his critical powers and enter a mental state like a lamb to the slaughter, as it were.
An onlooker can often observe covert hypnosis at work in sales transactions. If the critical faculty can be switched off a clever person can be commanded to do things out of character. For example, a woman who prided herself on her critical judgment once fell completely under the influence of a traveling salesman. Her children were her pride and joy, so when she heard the words 'lovely children' she fell for the salesman's subsequent blarney, hook, line and sinker. He was able command her to open her purse and take out money to pay for junk.
