催眠放鬆與靜心之間的差異 - 催眠治療

提問：催眠放鬆與靜心之間的差異是什麼？

古儒吉大師：有很大的差異。催眠放鬆下，你的新陳代謝提升8%，耗氧率在催眠中是較高
的。靜心中的耗氧率下降18%-20%，所以靜心期間，你的新陳代謝較低。因此，他們是完
全相反的。一個是超覺的意識，另一個是潛意識或無意識。差別在生理上。靜心後，你感
到精力充沛；催眠後，你感覺疲累，想睡覺。通常在催眠後，會讓他們去睡一會兒，因為
你感到疲倦。然而每天都可以做的靜心，卻會一直改善你的能量水平，但是你不應該每天
施行催眠，你無法如此。我並不是說催眠不好，作為一種治療，它是好的。某些時候，你
可以運用它，但是不可以作為日常的靈修練習，那是不好的。

Ques: What is the difference between hypnotic relaxation and meditation?

SriSri: There is a lot of difference. In hypnotic relaxation, your metabolism
goes up by 8%, oxygen consumption rate is higher in hypnosis. In meditation
the oxygen consumption rate goes down by 18%-20%. So your metabolism is less
during meditation. So they are completely opposite. One is going to super
consciousness, another is going to sub-consciousness or unconsciousness. The
difference is physiological. After meditation you feel energetic. After
hypnosis you feel tired, you want to go to sleep. Usually after hypnosis they
let them go to sleep for a bit because you feel tired. And meditation can be
done every day and it can improve your energy level all the time. But
hypnosis you shouldn’t do every day. You can’t do. I’m not saying hypnosis
is bad, it is ok as a therapy. For some time you can use it but not as a
regular spiritual practice. That is not good.
