Hypnotism, right or wrong?

I have a question about this topic. I've been on youtube and somehow I saw this clip Ricki Lake: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugj4 ... and this guy Tom Silver (A doctor and Hypnotist) does its thing on them and makes them do funny things. So I thought, "cool!" myself and I wanted to be hypnotized. So I asked my parents what they thought about it. And they said it was bad to let someone know you do not take control over your mind and make you do things like this clip which above. Then I thought well, I think it's wrong because that controls the evil people. Okay, I must say that I am a Christian and I think we could let the Devil take control over you when you are aware, even mesmerized. So my question is ... What do you think? And why? Christians, what do you think? Thanks.

Question: "If a Christian ever involved with hypnosis?" Answer: Hypnosis is problematic for a Christian for several reasons: 1) The fruit of the Spirit is self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). Following the guidance of the Spirit, He will give us the power to control ourselves better. Hypnosis involves the transfer of control, away from ourselves to another person. 2) We give ourselves, body, soul and spirit, to God Romans 6.12-13 gives us the formula for overcoming sin: "There reigns sin therefore in your mortal body, you should obey the lusts thereof. Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield surrender yourself to God. . . and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. "It's about control, as Christians, we can let sin control us, or we can leave that God gives us control. (See also Romans 6:16-23, 1 Corinthians 6:9-12;. And James 4:6-7) The scriptural formula leaves no room for hypnosis (values ​​from ourselves to another human being). 3) Hypnosis leads to an altered state of consciousness where the mind is very susceptible to outside suggestion. That susceptibility is what the hypnotist need to change the behavior of his subject. However, the word should concern us very susceptible. Scripture says to be vigilant and "vigilant, because your adversary the devil as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour "(1 Peter 5:8). The hypnotist is not the only one who wants to change our behavior, Satan also wants to make some changes, and we should be wary of giving him no chance to make his suggestions. 4) Hypnotism is often promoted as an easy way to "redefine" ourselves and find the answer within us. As believers in Christ, our goal is to be our Savior, not on ourselves or anything else (Hebrews 12:2). We know that the answers are not found within us (Romans 7:18), the solution we need is found in Christ (Romans 8:2). 5) Many of the techniques used in hypnosis systems are shared by the mystical, philosophical and religious, including the occult. The "father of hypnotism," Franz Anton Mesmer, was himself a practitioner of the occult- his method to induce a trance was very similar to the way that leads half a seance. Hypnotism, along with Yoga and Transcendental Meditation, has always been linked to darkness spiritual. The newfound respectability of these practices have not changed their underlying nature.
