The need to memorize text is often with us, particularly in preparation
for writing exams. Having an effective
methodology can be hugely helpful. I
will likely try this out as I have always resisted actual memorization of
anything. This appears to successfully
embed a key text and it is as good as using a card.
It is also easy to transfer over to language training were a core hundred
words allow real access and simply progressive reading of text combined with
speaking that text should pay of hugely.
No knows, with this it may become easy to become a total bore who quotes
unknown poets for fun.
How
to Develop a Photographic Memory
February
15, 2014
Editor’s Note: Here
is an interesting technique that one can work with to develop a more
photographic memory. Tools such as this can offer pathways to better
understanding your own consciousness of for developing deeper levels of
awareness and mindfulness.
Everyone wants to remember everything all the
time, reach into the sciences behind it all.
Things You’ll Need
·
A dark room.
·
A bright lamp.
·
A sheet of paper with a rectangular hole cut
the size of a paragraph for the text you want to “photograph”.
Instructions
1.
This system will take 1 month for you to
develop, you must take 15 minutes every day and dedicate it to this
training. For the first month, your eyes will take about 5 minutes time to
adjust to daylight reading.
2.
Find a dark room in your house, free of
distractions for 15 minutes. I use the bathroom. The room must have a bright
lamp or ceiling lamp.
3.
Sit down next to the light switch with your
book and paper that has a rectangular hole cut out of it the size of a
paragraph.
4.
Cover the page, exposing only one paragraph
and hold the book out in front of you. Close your eyes and
open, adjust distance so that your eyes focus instantly with ease on the
writing.
5.
Turn off light. You will see an after glow as
your eyes adjust to the dark. Flip light on for a split second and then off
again.
6.
You will have a visual imprint in your eyes of
the material that was in front of you. When this imprint fades, flip the
light on again for a split second, again staring at the material.
7.
Repeat this process until you can recall every
word in the paragraph in order. You will be able to actually see the paragraph
and read it from the imprint in your mind.
[ this certainly appears superior to any other method I have
attempted – arclein ]
Tips & Warnings
·
Do not get discouraged, it will work. It
has been working for the military for 70 years.
·
You will be developing this technique to a
point where you will be able to execute this during the day, all day.
·
Omitting even one day, can prolong training by
as much as a week.
