found this rabbit hole while researching stuff from the 1700s.
TLDR this guy named Mesmer did some weird stuff with magnets trying to treat rich peoples illnesses. accidently found a way to induce a state called of mind "Somnobalisum" (a state similar to sleepwalking)
the word mesmerism comes from this guy. Anyway he was shut down a group of scientists (including Benjamin franklin) and the French revolution happened.
Fast forward to the 1800s and mad doctors found a way to induce somnobalisum without magnets. They called it hypnosis.
First step is to induce a tranced state. (shutting off the conscious mind bringing forth the subconscious, akin to a deep meditative state)
Then the second step is to induce somnobalisum by hypnotising the subconscious mind like you did with the conscious mind.
Think inception but instead of dreams its level of consciousness.
the person is now in a state of somnobalisum. they will have no memory of the event and can be influenced to do an number of different things.
over the years they did a number of experiments on people and got some interesting results
Somethings you'd expect - they could make them fall into a deep sleep, in a therapeutic setting they could influence a persons habits or help them access regressed memories.
some stuff you might not expect would be that this can be used instead of anesthesiology. meaning a real hypnotist can put you in such a deep state that you can be operated on...raw. im talking limb removal with no pain. its called Hypnotic analgesia. people have been getting this done for over 150 years.

that's not all, weirdly enough a person in a state of somnoblasim will often perform a familiar physical tasks or actions with much more ease and accuracy compared to a normal state of mind.
and they score significantly higher on "psychic tests". Actually all psychic research seems to be just a branch of hypnotism. Project stargate anyone?
thoughts?
You've hit on one of the Elite's biggest secrets: the true nature of human consciousness. As you have found, the mere fact that in several centuries there has been almost no research on this vital and most profound subject should be demonstration enough that it is, indeed, kept secret simply by making sure all ships steer clear.
The subject is, of course, wide-ranging with numerous significant ramifications in our society, but to address just one we can consider NPCs. If you recall the summer of 2019, the NPC meme boiled over and there was a huge cognitive warfare program to slam it back into the ground. It was not because "They" were concerned people would feel insulted, it was because it exposed a part of that Big Secret.
The idea that many people are NPCs is dismissed out of hand by virtually everyone. How could there be people with no higher consciousness? How could they possibly function? Well...
My guess is that about 80% of the population are NPCs, with a further 15% in only a partial state of consciousness. Ever look around or browse social media and think people are acting and reacting just like robots? They kinda are.
The Big Secret is that Elite--at some level and to some extent--know this, and thus can manipulate large populations based on that understanding. Meanwhile, some people see their friends and family watch MSNBC and think, "How can they believe that stuff?" That's the wrong question, because those people are almost certainly not processing the world in the same way as someone who could formulate that question in the first place.
A topic you may wish to look into related to what you have already uncovered is "hypnotizability". How is it possible that people could have fundamentally different levels of susceptibility to this phenomenon? It's simply all part of the hidden, true nature of consciousness.
Yeah the hypnotizable aspect is interesting. I tried being hypnotized one and nothing happened. I never "went under" but what's wild is others among me did and that was utterly shocking to me. Perhaps that's part of why I'm in this forum today. I suspect most here are not susceptible (though some clearly are lol)
There's a related phenomenon I've experienced twice.
It typically happens to people while driving a familiar route, and that's how it happened for me. Both times I just sort of "blacked out", had absolutely no memory of the trip. Could not name a single thing I saw or that happened, but all the while I was operating a motor vehicle on a busy freeway.
So years later when I heard about NPCs, I thought, "Yeah, you can probably do almost everything a person does on a daily basis even when there's no one upstairs."
Autonomic nervous system (not the same as subconscious). It's the same system that allows us to walk or bicycle with ease
Oh no, this is something absolutely different. You'd know it in a second if you'd experienced it.
EDIT: I should mention the specific name for this phenomenon, except it does not have one (at least one of which I have ever heard). That's how suppressed this all is, further demonstration of a Big Secret.
I also tried to be hypnotized and it didn't do anything. I've known some psychologists that say it's not what it's made out to be. It can't bring back repressed memories. It also can't make someone do something they don't want to do.
I tried lucid dreaming with some friends once, it was a interesting experience, and I did end up having a bizarre lucid dream weeks later.
Been forever since I have had them, seemed like I stopped having them around the time I figured out how to fly or do whatever I wanted. There were so many dreams were I was like. Ok my moms alive even though she died years ago, this obviously isnt real. Try to fly only to fall on my face lol.
My dad, promised me not to get into the hypnotism stuff. I dont know if he was yanking my leg or what. But he claimed when he was 16, his family had him in a boys school type deal. He was the trouble maker in the family and was getting in trouble constantly, so he was sent to this school for a couple years to try and discipline him. Later on he was the only one in the family who didnt go to college and him and his dad butted heads over it quite a bit.
Anyway, found a book about hypnotism in the library ( so he claimed ). And read it and tried it on one of his classmates one friday night.
Claims he couldnt get the guy to snap out of it and he went insane.
My dad wasnt really the type to just straight up lie, he was a story teller so he would embellish the truth sometimes, but the look of regret on his face whenever he would tell this story made me believe there could have been some truth to it.
