TRANSMARGINAL INHIBITION
William Sargant, in his book The Mind Possessed makes a thorough examination
of possession-type experience. He believes that the key to this phenomena
lies in an 'abnormal' response to extreme stress which was identified by
Pavlov as Transmarginal Inhibition. Sargant describes this reaction as
having three stages, the Equivalent, Paradoxical, and Ultraparadoxical.
