Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer focus while not focussing

Hi,

First I would like to say that the posts on this forum helped me a lot to answer initial question on photoreading as I've got interested in it a few days ago.

There is one thing I cannot stop thinking about. When in photofocus the words of the page become blurry. How can the (unconsious) mind know what's written here since the words are only visible as a black smear?

Now I tried to see the words clearly, not blurry at all, while in photofocus. So I see the the blip page and visually overlapping words and I can recognize in the periphery of my eyes individual words. When in this "hard gaze" instead of soft gaze the white areas between the words become like small rivers, crossing the text vertically, giving rise to an unique pattern of that piece of text.

My question is, since I haven't gained any results yet, what is the best way to photofocus. Is it usefull to see the words clearly while not focussing or is the blurry vision preferable?

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,
Roy

hi Roy,

When you start out with PhotoFocussing your eyes, the pages will be a bit blurry in the beginning. The pages will become more clearer in the PhotoFocus state as you practice it. Just make sure that you have a soft gaze and see the four corners of the book while flipping pages, that's basically all you need. Although you cannot see the pages clearly with your current, more blurry eyed vision, your subconscious mind 'focuses' on the material that is in front of your eyes. It's a shift of focus

The words are blurry because you are using your peripheral vision. The mind has always been able to understand what you see with your peripheral vision. Once it's figured out how important it is it causes you to change your focus.

Focus is really a mental thing. Much like the photographer adjusting the lens of a camera. It's the photographers mind that directs the camera to make sharp certain parts of the picture. To the camera it's all clear. To the mind it all makes sense.

The eye does not see it's the mind that sees.
