What is
the difference between meditation and self-hypnotism?
Meditation
is the natural process of mental development. Self-hypnotism is
an artificial process of conditioning your memory, so that some
form of behaviour, feeling or sensation will be changed according
to the conditions. A distinguishing feature of self-hypnosis is
that it produces a loss of self-awareness, because the object
of concentration used for hypnosis is external to the body. In
true meditation, the object of concentration is inside the body
and the more you meditate, the more the self-awareness increases.
