A technique for memorizing a page nearly verbatim in 2 minutes

General Memory Chat

People say if something is too good to be true it probably is,The same can be said here,

I memorized a random page(Page no -73) picked by somebody else of Edward De Brono’s book Lateral Thinking,

The method which I used for doing it is

  • Converting each sentence into an image which shoud look like a Letter Shape of a word in that sentence.

  • Moving my eyes to make that imaginary alphabet(Not it’s mental image,That would be impractical)

  • Remembering the sequence of those letter shapers which can also form a word,

Recall Phrase

  • When recalling remember that alphabet of that sentence a tak made easier by mental images.

  • Move your eyes to form that letter.

  • Say whatever comes to your mind

Sony’s while using techniqe

  • Do not move your eyes and think of a mental image at the same time as that will interfere with your recall.

  • Do not say any bad words even if its contained in your memorized book(or page)

I believe that anyone can try this technique even those with Aphantasia as a new guided meditation which enables people with Apantasia to see pictures in their head has been released in @metivier’s YouTube channel with its link below-

,

And note that I am still testing this technique,

And,

Cheers.

I have decided to start memorizing multiple pages of a book which is called “NCERT Commerce Class 11” for testing this technique and I may only memorize the 93 Q&A from that book with its word meanings and also its full forms,

I will keep the readers of ths forum topic updated with my progess on memorizing with this technique and my memorization,

And,

Cheers.

Hi, @aicreator, could you please explain your method in more detail? I didn’t quite understand how you convert phrases to images.

I’m looking forward to hear how things work out for you. Being able to memorize pages from books is something that I find very interesting.

Edit: I mean 9:03 PM
I will be memorizing pages for 1 hour from 9:02 PM to 10:03 PM nearly verbatim using 5 fold synesthesia and this method and I will also post the result of that after an hour,

And,

Have a Good Day.

I tried this method without the recall phrase 3 and I found out that with out the recal phrase 3 in this method a person can memroize the main concepts in this method after one reading and the big concepts in this method after reading a few times,

However after rereading my post I found that I forgot to apply recall phrase 3 and because if that applied the incomplete method,

And Because It is my time to sleep now I will be testing the whole method tomorrow,

And,

Have a Great Day.

The results which I am getting from this technique after further testing are not always the same and after thinking about how this technique works,

I have thought that she explaning the text that has been memorized with the booking word choice then it can make people into thinking that the book has been memroized word for word,I had tried finding out what makes us more likely to chose certain words but I was unable to find it and if there was a way to make me chose more words from the book while explaning while keeping in mind a word limit for every one to or two sentences then the output will be nearly verbatim, However this will require a person to be more likely to chose words from that specific book which may be possible for that person by using those words when speaking in everyday life,

Honest words-For some reason it works well in some texts and not so well in others,Bit I think tat something makes it work in certain texts but this will be too tiring and time consuming to verify with risk and I hope to test this technique later however I do not think that this technique is very very consistent,

And,

Have a Nice Day.
