when you photoread you are not using your conscious mind you are using the other than conscious mind, the preconscious processor.That part of your brain is much more powerful than the part of your brain that can do only maybe 5,6, or 7 things at the same time.The other than conscious mind can do 20,000 things at the same time.The storage capacity of the inner mind exceeds the capacity of the conscious mind 10 billion to one. Think about that 10 billion to one. Your brain is more that capable of processing that information and you don't want the conscious mind interfering or getting in the way of the other than conscious mind. You want to expose the information from the book to the part of your brain that can do 20,000 things at the same time and note that that is the other than conscious mind. There is no way the conscious mind could attend to 20,000 things at the same time it can handle only 6 or 7 things at a time but the other that conscious mind can handle 20,000 at the same time and that is what you are tapping into when you go into photofocus and photoread.You notice the term Photoreading Whole Mind system. you use the conscious part of your brain in activation having a purpose asking questions and finding answers to those questions when superreading and dipping. sincerely, photoread4me.
