    Three, Derren Brown is an illusionist who occasionally uses hypnosis, but that doesn't mean everything his subjects do is done under hypnosis or post-hypnotic suggestion.

    Hence my question: what evidence do you actually have to state that it's a fallacy that hypnosis cannot make one do things they wouldn't normally do?
    I studied regression therapy myself, and have many friends who are regression therapists and hypnotherapists who do not agree with your assessment.

    Having said that, I do believe that there are other mind control techniques that can achieve things hypnosis cannot, and combining techniques could lead to even further-going results.
    I do recall when the original "Manchurian Candidate" came out (1960s?), there was some talk that it was NOT realistic to claim a person could be conditioned to kill against their will.
    The studies of that period said hypnotic conditioning could not compel a person to commit such a heinous act if the person was not pre-disposed to such an act to begin with.

    Granted that research is decades old.
    Are there more recent studies I am unaware of?
    Please share Garuda, I always welcome an opportunity to learn of new findings.

    Indoctrination and brainwashing are inclusive within hypnotic conditioning. Am I right about that?
