In this episode, we dive into the declassified CIA document titled "The Gateway Process" which discusses the complicated theories behind hypnosis, transcendental meditation, biofeedback, and more. Jack enlists the help of his much smarter friend Sidu to go through these papers, explain the ideas, and decide whether it makes sense.
