Imagination is more powerful than knowledge when dealing with your own mind or the mind of another.
This is an important rule to remember, especially when using self-hypnosis or self affirmation. REASON IS EASILY OVERRULED BY IMAGINATION. Why? because reasoning is part of the conscious function, is a logical deduction, no emotion involved, whereas Imagination although is initiated by your conscious, it will arouse some feeling, some emotion, whether you feel good or bad imagining something, you’ll most likely take action toward or against how you feel. This is why some persons blindly rush into some unreasonable act or situation. Violent crimes based on jealously are almost always caused by a overactive imagination. In a lot of cases of misunderstanding, they are almost always caused by someone letting their imagination running wild. Any idea accompanied by a strong emotion such as anger, hatred, love, or our political or religious beliefs usually cannot be modified through the use of reason. Why? you may ask again! This is because our subconscious mind which control the emotion is more powerful and resourceful than our conscious mind, that is why!
In using self-hypnosis we can form images in the subconscious mind, which is the feeling level mind, and hence have much better chance in removing, altering or amend old ideas.
