Hypnosis and God

This is a bit tricky, because religious discussions are not allowed on the forum. There is a fine line between religion and spirituality. I think the main reason is the moderators don't want to see religious/political arguments.

Anyway, your question seems to be along spiritual lines. If there is a spiritual entity, what does this entity have to do with love if hypnosis can produce feelings of love? The answer is very, very, very simple. It depends on what you believe about this spiritual entity. If you believe this entity created everything in the universe, then this entity also created hypnosis, created flowers, beer, cars, Coldplay, smiles, ice cream, babies, greed, jealousy, the Internet, etc. etc.

Hypnosis then is just a creation of the spirit in which you believe, i.e. God created hypnosis. But, this depends on your spiritual beliefs and whether or not the spiritual entity is all powerful or not.

Very good that religious discussions are avoided here.

I myself distinguish indeed spirituality and the system or morals of a religion.

The problem with religion is that you can easily fall into moral/ethical discussions and I'm not surprised that that is undesired.

Regarding to the question in the opening post:
with hypnosis you actually direct someone's emotions and feelings, so also feelings of love. The unconsious doesnt mind which emotions, as long as it is an emotion.

Everyone has these feelings, you only have to focus at it.

Thoughts and feelings are two sides of the same coin. Thoughts believed in or taken seriously will produce for you an emotion or state of mind appropriate to those thoughts.

A state of mind called love comes from loving thoughts.

Hypnosis suggests or guides your thinking along certain lines of thought to effect certain states of mind.

I wanted to say that much. However, I am uncertain as to how to answer your question.
