a good example of this trust may be

a good example of this trust may be found in the work of hypnotherapist Milton Erickson, who often told parable-like stories to his patients. For significant intervals the stories might not make sense to the listener. Erickson's patient or trainee, aware of his ingenious sense of secret appropriateness, was willing to stay with his seemingly unrelated stories with their more or less hidden messages until their implicit instruction was revealed. Sometimes the revela-tion would come right away, sometimes it would come later, and sometimes effects would come unconsciouslywithout any revelation at all.
