What is a hypnotic coma?

0

A misunderstanding of the Esdaile state. The Esdaile state is incredibly pleasant. In the Esdaile state, you really don’t care about what is going on around you. You are totally aware, you are just feeling so good you don’t care about what is going on around you physically. Should a medical expert test you, you would exhibit signs of a medical coma. You would be totally non-responsive to outside stimulus, even injury. Thus this state is excellent for surgery because you don’t notice the discomfort of being cut or operated on. In this state, your pupils are dilated and you seem for all practical purposes to be in a coma, hence the name. But this is just the incredibly pleasant Esdaile state and no cause for alarm.
