a complicated name for a very ancient process quite well known in Greece and India.
It is drug hypnotism. A shot of sodium pentothal is given intravenously to the patient and he is asked to count backwards. It is actually a depressant on the awareness of an individual so that those attention units which remain behind the curtain of his reactive mind can be reached directly. (DMSMH, p. 123)
- the practice of inducing sleep with drugs and then talking to the patient to draw out buried thoughts. (EOS, p. 24)
