Alpay: "PATHOLOGIES INDUCED BY CULT MANIPULATION - Collective Trance": PATHOLOGIES INDUCED BY CULT MANIPULATION - Collective Trance Collective trance differs little from mass hysteria in its instinctual dynamics. It is the manifestation of libido impulses, uncontrolled by any restraint or taboo, simply because of the “ambiance” created within the group. In contrast to mass hysteria, trances are more organized. This borrows from shamanism and enjoys a symbolic prestige in which hysteria is revered. It is modeled around a culture. Generally, a certain dispersonalization of the shaman takes place, making him simply the voice for the guardian spirits of the community. Hypnosis aims to divert the libido energy into symbolic meaning that will, a posteriori, enrich the group’s discourse. Among the topics developed by the groups built around the phenomenon of trance is that of reincarnation; trances symbolize the passage of the old person into death, then from death into the new person.
