Medism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Medism can refer to:
- in ancient Greece, having sympathies with the Medes or siding with the Persian Empire. It was considered a crime in many ancient Greek city-states. Pausanias, the Lakedaimonian hegemon of the Delian League was accused of Medism by other member states, an accusation which allowed Athens to seize control of the league.
- a specific form of Hypnotism mixing hypnosis and meditation. 'Medism' or 'Neo-oriental Hypnotism' attempt to spiritualise the materialistic and mechanical form of occidental Hypnotism by bringing it in line with oriental mysticism.
