I am sure that Alex will put in her official opinion, but I think that Paul suggests that you do a basic chant while you do the PR step. "Re-lax. Re-lax. Keep the state. Turn the page. Re-lax. Re-lax. 1, 2, 3, 4." etc. and over and over. This is to make sure that the "wanderings" or "day dreaming" that you experience don't slip into beta-type thinking, which would disrupt the state. If your mind slipped into more of a theta stream of conscsiousness type focus while you photoread that would probably not be a problem. But, since we are trying to hold ourselves in an ideal state as we input the information into our preconscious processor during the PR stage, it would probably be better to not allow yourself to daydream but rather to use a chant that would suit you.
