Mysticism and Science-Mesmer

[starlightwings]

He was simply a man who drew the wrong conclusions about the ability of people to alter their state of consciousness and the nature of suggestibility. A product of his time. Not the first and surely not the last. Mesmer actually did help people. He helped 12 year old Mozart get an opera performed in Vienna when the director scoffed at such a young person being able to compose such a thing. Mesmer wasn't evil. What man or woman hasn't let their ego get in the way of their brains?

This information is not an accurate depiction of Franz Mesmer.

Infact, most of the facts here are just plain wrong.

Mesmer stumbled across hypnosis, but something else as well.

That something else is the Magnetic fluid... which still works in modern day mesmerism. Magnetic fluid just being a word to describe the unkown.

However I'm really sure that it has nothing to do with satan or anything else that the paranoid and crazy might dream up.

@Zaleblackwell Mesmer there is no question that Mesmer healed the sick. The ignorant could not understand his power so they made him out to be a manipulator when he was in fact helping people. His technique was not hypnosis, that is just a label.
