Good question.
Hypnosis is a state that can only be induced when a person agrees to it.
The ( to be ) hypnotised person wants to please the hypnotist.
LOL !
I wouldn't describe it like that. Enlightened people aren't super-human or something. They are more aware of their senses tho, because the mind doesn't distract them.
I think if the enlightened person allows it, he can still be hypnotised. It is a state of mind that is neurological in nature as far as I know.
However, I also believe that an enlightened one is able to make a real choice if he/she wants to allow that. You see, if you haven't understood the real nature of mind yet, you would probably try to resist the efforts of the hypnotist. Fight it. This gives the hypnotist a handle. An entrypoint so to speak.
By not reacting, the thoughtstream won't pull you into a trance ( in the end, you hypnotise yourself, the hypnotist just knows how to trigger it ) and it will be impossible to be hypnotised.
Just my opinion tho
