The Story of a Hypnotist Who Argued that Meditation and Hypnosis are the Same

The story of a man and I began on a hot summer day while sitting in my meditation center. I was practicing my meditation when a man approached me. He asked me if meditation and hypnosis are the same. He caught me by surprise. I knew that they were completely different practices.

I started to explain to him the difference between the two, but he would not listen. He was a hypnotist, adamant that meditation and hypnosis were the same.

Hypnosis and meditation are like oil and water – they don’t mix.

Meditation and Hypnosis Are Not the Same

The moon is full,  Yet I remain in meditation, Seeking the divine.

I could see that this man was stuck in his beliefs, so I decided to show him the difference between the two practices. I asked him to close his eyes and relax so that I could awaken his kundalini with my touch.

I touched his root chakra. With my meditative power, I felt his kundalini energy. I raised it with my touch. His body starts to vibrate with subtle energy. He felt the gentle tingling sensation of the life force at Ajna within a few minutes.

He was mesmerized by what he had experienced when he opened his eyes. He told me that he had never felt anything like this before. He saw the difference between hypnosis and meditation.

Meditation and Hypnosis Are as Different as Chalk and Cheese

My thoughts find focus, In the stillness of meditation, Finding inner peace.

The man thanked me for showing him the difference between the two practices, and he went. I was happy to show the man the power of meditation. It was my blessing to help him reach a higher level of consciousness.

How are Hypnosis and Meditation Different?

  1. Hypnosis is like restless sleep. Meditation is like a state of conscious wakefulness.
  2. Hypnosis is a peculiar state of the nervous system, while meditation is an awakened state of the soul.
  3. Hypnosis is like being in a trance, while meditation is a journey of self-discovery.
  4. Hypnosis is an unconscious state, while meditation is a state of awareness.
  5. Hypnosis is induced sleep, while meditation is an induced awakening.
  6. Hypnosis increases susceptibility to suggestion, while meditation increases susceptibility to intuition.
  7. Hypnosis is a slight insensibility, while meditation is a heightened sensibility.
  8. Hypnosis is like being in a dream, while meditation is like being in a dreamless state of peace.
  9. Hypnosis is a state of being hypnotized, while meditation is a state of being mindful.
  10. Hypnosis is surrendering your mind to the hypnotist. Meditation is surrendering your mind to the Almighty.
  11. Hypnosis is like an altered state of consciousness. Meditation is like an enlightened state of consciousness.
  12. Meditating is like being in a world of deep thought, while hypnosis is like being in a world of profound suggestion.
  13. Meditation is about peace and serenity. Hypnosis is about going down a rabbit hole of altered perception.
  14. Hypnosis is like a rollercoaster ride of imaginative experiences. Meditation is like taking a peaceful walk in the park.
  15. Meditation is like a calm and refreshing swim. Hypnosis is like diving deep into the ocean of hyper-suggestibility.
  16. Hypnosis is like an unpredictable journey of responsiveness to ideas. Meditation is the same path taken day after day in total peace.
  17. When you meditate, you are in control of your thoughts. When you are hypnotized, your thoughts take control of you.
  18. Meditation is like a cool breeze on a hot day. Hypnosis is like a hurricane of increased willingness to respond.

  20. Hypnosis is a journey of altered attention, while meditation is a journey of clarity.
  21. Meditation is like a peaceful boat ride, while hypnosis is like a wild ride in a raging river.
  22. Hypnosis is a dream-like state of altered perception. Meditation is like a calm state of being.
How Different Are Meditation and Hypnosis

My heart is open, As I sit in meditation, Absorbing the silence.

Can You Awaken Kundalini Using Hypnosis?

A hypnotist misled people, promising he could awaken their Kundalini. He would hypnotize them and make them believe that they were in a state of heightened awareness. He would tell them he activated their spiritual powers. In a hypnotic state, people believed him and give him whatever he wanted.

One day, a man came to me looking to learn Simplified Kundalini Yoga. He told me of his experience with the conman. I listened to him. He was desperate to find a way to awaken his Kundalini without resorting to hypnosis.

Meditating and Hypnotizing are as different as apples and oranges. You can’t put one in a trance and expect the other to be juicy.

Can You Awaken Kundalini Using Hypnosis

The world fades away, As I enter meditation, Connecting with clarity.

I told him about Kundalini and how to awaken it safely.

The man was happy to hear that there was a legitimate way to awaken his Kundalini and thanked me for my help. I touched his Mooladhara and awakened his Kundalini to Ajna within a few minutes.

He went on to practice Kundalini Yoga daily and soon became a master in Kundalini Yoga.

Meditating and hypnotizing may look similar, but they’re like night and day – you can’t mix them up!

You Cannot Awaken Kundalini Using Hypnosis

The sun sets low, And I practice meditation, Stillness is my guide.

He now awakens the Kundalini of aspirants serving in one of our meditation centers.

Don’t let others fool you. You cannot awaken your Kundalini through hypnosis. You can awaken your Kundalini through a simple touch of a divine master in our SKY Yoga center.

Is Meditation Just Self-Hypnosis?

Meditation is like a long, lovely stroll through the garden of your mind.

Meditation is like a spiritual yoga session for your brain. It’s the ultimate journey to enlightenment.

You can’t jump in without preparation – you need to get your inner Zen on before taking the plunge. To do this, you must awaken your Kundalini and focus your mind on the life force.

Is Meditation Just Self Hypnosis

I find balance here, As I sink into meditation, Peace within my soul.

It’s like drinking a cup of hot tea. But, instead of giving you a caffeine buzz, it gives you inner peace and tranquility. Once you begin, you’ll feel like a cool breeze in an otherwise chaotic world.

Your thoughts will become clear. Your worries will melt away. You fill your heart with nothing but love and joy. So go ahead – meditate away and feel the power of inner peace!

Self-hypnosis is like a shortcut to the garden, a magical portal to the inner depths of your being.

Meditation is not Self-Hypnosis

My breath is slowed, As I take part in meditation, Mind and body united.

Self-hypnosis is like a tightrope walker spinning plates atop a high wire. You must have the perfect balance between concentration and relaxation, focus and flow. Without the former, you can’t do the latter. It’s like a juggling act that requires you to be both a master of concentration and an expert in letting go.

In other words, you’ve got to keep it together while at the same time keeping it light. The more skilled you are at this, the more likely you will be able to transcend the mundane and enter a hypnotic state. So go ahead – spin your plates, and don’t forget to smile.

  1. Meditation is like a science experiment: you’re the observer, and your mind is the lab.
  2. Meditation is like an interactive physics lesson. You get to control your mental wavelengths.
  3. Meditation is like a mathematical equation: you can use your mind to solve a problem.
  4. Meditation is like the older, wiser sibling of self-hypnosis. No, they are not the same.
  5. Self-hypnosis may be the flashy younger brother, but Meditation is reliable.

The two practices of meditation and self-hypnosis differ in many ways. They can work together like two hands on a clock to bring you to a place of peace and clarity.

Meditation is like a slow, steady stream of consciousness. It can lead you to an enlightened state.

Meditation is more reliable than Self-Hypnosis

The worries of life, Disappear in meditation, Tranquility prevails.

Self-hypnosis is like a mighty wave crashing over the shore. It unlocks the secrets of the subconscious mind.

Together, you can use them to create profound changes and open up new possibilities.

Which is Better, Self-Hypnosis or Meditation?

Meditation is the bee’s knees, and self-hypnosis is just a flea! Because when it comes to chillin’ out, the science says it’s clear: Meditation is better than self-hypnosis; that’s a fact we hold so dear!

Meditation can do it faster than hypnosis to relax those tense muscles and clear the mind of strife. It helps you to focus and stay in the present, reducing stress and helping you to vent.

Meditation is the mental equal of a good stretch after a long day.

Which is better meditation or self-hypnosis

The night is still, As I sit in meditation, Reaching enlightenment.

It’s a way to unwind, release tension, and de-stress. Self-hypnosis is more like a sprint. It’s a short burst of intense concentration, often used for specific goals.

So, you can think of meditation as the marathon runner and self-hypnosis as the sprinter. And which one do you think is more likely to reach their target in the long term?

Self-hypnosis is a form of psychotherapy that works by inducing a trance-like state. It allows a person to access and alter the subconscious mind. Meditation is a practice that involves focusing on your life force. You meditate to increase awareness and achieve enlightenment.

Meditation is better than self-hypnosis

The stars shine bright, As I find peace in meditation, My spirit is renewed.

Research has found that meditation elicits a much deeper state of relaxation than self-hypnosis.

Studies now show that meditation increases the production of gamma-aminobutyric acid. It helps decrease anxiety, stress, and inflammation. Self-hypnosis only stimulates the production of beta-endorphins, which can reduce pain.

Meditation increases self-awareness, improves focus and concentration, and boosts feelings of well-being. Self-hypnosis increases suggestibility and decreases cognitive control.

Summary

Meditation is a much more beneficial practice than self-hypnosis. It has a more profound physiological and psychological impact and produces more beneficial outcomes.
