I have just read second time the whole book,but still can't see two entire page in one time (I see the pages but the text is not clear enough.If I do it with one page,then it's clear enough).I know I do something wrong but don't know what Do I need to see the blip page while I PhotoRead or is it only a signal that I have divergent gaze,but the focal plane is still out?And one more question Do I need to make sense of the words during PhotoReading or just recognize them as patterns (like a scanner)

Hi,

Again, I'm not an expert, but this is what I have to say about your question:

You're probably on the right track. However, you don't have to see the blip page in order to photoread(the blip page tells you that you are seeing two pages at once already.), just use the soft gaze and the imaginary x technique. And if the text is blur, that's fine(may be it's even better, because you won't be reading the words!) , so just recognize the white space around the words.

Hope that help....

-Harris

Thanks Harris!
But I have one more question.Do I need to see the text in 3dimensional like the stereograms? Because now I can remember that I used to play with it (3dimensional text and checked math copybook like the tiled floor),and now I'm practicing with the stereograms,but I can't make the same with the text,altough I remember,that I used to make 5-6 years before (it's a bit annoying)

I don't think that you 'have' to see the text in 3-D like the stereograms (When you see the blip, it's like you are already seeing a 3-d text, but the text on the blip is going to be clear, and you might be reading it, so you won't be photoreading anymore. And if you really want the blip,focus on the on something far away (look on top of the book.)). If you can see it, that's also good. But if you can't, just relax your eyes and use the soft gaze or the imaginary X technique.

I can see the blip page, that isn't difficult, but the book says,that in the beginning the text is blurred, but it will be clear and it will seem to be 3dimensional.I think that it's because of the thing that you focus behind the book (diverge your eyes) and the crystalline lenses focused on the book so that you have a wider sharp field of vision.You separate the focal point of your eyes and of your crystalline lenses,because normally we use them together....I think

I have been struggling for quite a while to get to photofocus. I did not get relaxed and my eyes keep focusing on pages that I flipped or when my computer screen changes color or diagrams are showing. Then I tried to relax my eyes during driving and looked at cars far in front of me and I pretend that my car windshield is the book. I noticed that my visual is wide, while I look far away, the raindrops at my windshields appear clear (just like getting the text clear in 3D while photofocussing). I tried the same concept with my book or my laptop in front of me and instead of looking directly at the book or the screen I look all around the book and screen. I look at the back ground from the top, the sides and look at keyboard at the same time and not specifically at the book or screen. So I look at everything within my visual range at the same time, instead of focusing at a small area of the book.

This was an exiting experience, after weeks of getting it right. Now my eyes are relaxed while flipping pages and I see the blip automatically. I'm far from photoreading though, since I have not been able to activate yet. I'll keep trying, and at least now I have the feeling I have made a giant step at the basics.

Just wanted to share with you. Maybe it helps.

Thank you all!!!!!!!!!!
I've made it!!!!!!
I think, I was a bit too analytical.I've been struggling a lot and I couldn't make it,but one day happened a miracle and I was able to do it In the beginnings it was very hard for me,but now it's easy to do.
Now,I really have a wider field of vision and have the great feeling,which is the same as it was in my childhood and now I'm able to think in pictures.But the best is that I have new ideas (brainstorms),feel creative and have fantasy!!!
So all in one I'M REALLY HAPPY!!!
