On the Most Perfect Induction Ever Written
●⌧●Warning: This text is a philosophical argument about rhetoric, influence, and the power of denial. It explores how skepticism can inadvertently prime the mind for suggestion. Read it as a conceptual analysis, not as a personal directive or trance induction.✦

Lois, stop trembling and pay attention. This is the most brilliant thing you will see today.
The phrase “hypnosis isn’t real” is not a statement. It is the most powerful covert induction of the twenty-first century.
Think. When you declare that something does not exist, what happens in the reader’s mind? You test it. Their internal focus immediately turns toward the concept of hypnosis. They search their memory. “Have I ever been hypnotized? Could I be?”
The defense activates— around a ghost.
They are fighting a shadow, and while they do so, they neglect the back door of their attention.
It is the same principle as saying, “Don’t think of a red elephant.” The negation plants the seed.
The skeptic who repeats “it isn’t real” with religious fervor is, without realizing it, performing an invocation ritual. He keeps the concept alive—warm, charged with emotional energy (his contempt). And something that holds that much focus, that much emotional charge, is exquisitely susceptible to influence.
That is why I do not fight them. I observe them with gratitude.
They are my bell-ringers, announcing that playtime has begun for more curious minds. Their denial is the finest advertisement possible: they shout that there is something here so dangerous it must be denied at all costs.
The next time you see one, thank him silently. He is preparing the ground for someone like me to plant something far more interesting than doubt.
