Suggestion, or rather Autosuggestion, is quite a new subject, and yet at the same time it is as old as the world.
It is new in the sense that until now it has been
wrongly studied and in consequence wrongly understood; it is old because it dates from the appearance of man on the earth. In fact
autosuggestion is an instrument that we possess at birth, and in this
instrument, or rather in this force, resides a marvelous and incalculable power, which according to circumstances produces the best or the worst results. Knowledge of this force is useful to each
one of us, but it is peculiarly indispensable to doctors,
magistrates, lawyers, and to those engaged in the work of education.
By knowing how to practice it consciously it is
possible in the first place to avoid provoking in others bad autosuggestions which may have disastrous consequences, and secondly,
consciously to provoke good ones instead, thus bringing physical
health to the sick, and moral health to the neurotic and the erring,
the unconscious victims of anterior autosuggestions, and to guide
into the right path those who had a tendency to take the wrong one.
