Hi All,
So in a private discussion with a fellow Nexian, I was asked for tips on remembering his trips. As I re-read the reply, I am thinking this technique may be beneficial to all, so I will copy it in here, If it helps anyone in here, let me know, If you have other strategies, please share them, I am always looking to improve recall.
anyway, here is the trick:
Hey bud, if for pointers, you meant to help you remember your travels, here are a few things that work for me.
To begin yout training, it is good to star small. What we want to do is work on the mechanism that allows us to access the memory. In the DMT space, we make memories, but they do not seem to use the same 'access' channels to retrieve them. Almost as though you need a seperate librarian to run back there and get the memories out. So I started by training the librarian. I did this by doing, I dunno, a couple dozen trips with a single minded intention on the way in ''I will remember ONE thing''. Not 10, not the entire narrative..ONE thing, and ONE thing only. In your trip, choose one vision, or revelation, or whatever. It can be a simple as a texture, a space, a geometric impossibility...it does not matter. It can be very benificial to associate your chosen memory to another, easy to reacall image. For this example, we will use a Bun, made of bread.. A bread bun. Why a bun?, I'll get into that later.
Let's say you entered a control room in your trip and there was a creature sat at a table, twiddling knobs. And let'S say this is what we choose as our ONE thing. OK? Now, in your mind, you will place your Bun on the control table, directly on the control knobs, and you will take a mental snapshot of that image. add quick details, like crumbs on the side of the knobs, or a smell like toast, or maybe the entity looks interested in tasting it, whatever it is, the more little details the better.
''A bun, sitting on a table with knobs, crumbs, smells good, and some creature who operates the controls.'' See it. really 'SEE' the image. Don't try and remember the words, remember the polaroid image you just made.
Now, once you have that image made, drop it, forget it, and move on with your trip.
When you return to baseline, your job will be to remember the Bun, not the whole seen, just a bun. Now let your mind naturally come back to the stored image of the bun. As you visualize the bun, a table will most likely appear under it, and then control knobs, crumbs, maybe a smell and then an entity. If you get this, you have succeeded in the 1st step! DO this for a dozen trips, until you have a facility to just add a bun, almost like a post-it note , to any part of your trip you want to remember.
-scene
-add bun creatively with fun details
- make mental snapshot
-move on, do not dwell.
This is the 1st step to a simple mnemonic system that will allow you to remember up to 10 items, scenes, ideas or whatever with great ease. (even in daily life, like shopping lists from the wife, etc.)
We chose Bun, because it rhymes with ''One''. One-Bun so when you return to baseline, and you remember how to count to 10 again, you will say ''one'' and know that the image you seek is based around a Bun.
1 bun
2 shoe
3 tree
4 door
5 hive
6 sticks
7 heaven
8 gate
9 sign
10 den
(Memorize this verbatim, you should be able to shout out this list out in your sleep. 1 bun 2 shoe 3 tree....etc etc. it has to be 100% internalized, hardwired into your brain)
You will use the same thechnique for 2 shoe. This morning, my '2 shoe',was a little pripheral entity who was holding a sign, almost like a protester, but smiling. He was on my back left, just as I crossed the first coherence gate. I placed the little guy in a high top Air Jordan shoe, white with gold accents, and it had fluorescent yellow laces. He was in the shoe, waving his sign at me. When I came out of the trip, I started with my One-bun image first
1. bun - A bun in a large tree, like the whomping willlow in harry potter. the tree was picking bits of the bread off and making happy moaning noises. (In this case, I wanted to remember the sentient tree I met on the way in. that was my 'one' image)
2. Shoe - the entity with the sign in the Air jordan, bright laces
3. tree....and on and on.
Start with 1-bun. when you have easy recall of the bun image, move on to 2 images: 1 bun 2 shoe, and so on. Because they rhyme you will never forget the list. With some practice, you will easily start going through to 8 gate and 9 sign before you know it.
try and record immediately upon return. I use verbal notes on my phone, or sometime just dictate dirtectly into chatGPT, whatever method works for you. Upon immediate re-realizing, try and get the ''overview'' vision out right away, not necessarily the mnemonic memories, but the general feeling of the trip, overall colours, feelings, movement, somatic feelings or issues, emotional content, did the visions appear from scratch, or did you show up to an environment that was aready formed, etc. How many breaths before activation, any stalling in a waiting room, or anticipation, how was your heart rate during the trip, and breathing etc...get this info noted ASAP, that is what disssappears fastest, because it repeats between trips, and we tend to lose those details ''Was that THIS trip or the LAST one that this happened??..'' Then when you have all that noted, start to go back to your mnemoninc list of ten, and extract that. Also, later int he day, and even days later, try and isolate this particular ''2 Shoe, from other ''2 shoes' images you made on different trips.
This is the real skill...the recall. the librarian who must run into the archives and retrieve the visions you want. They are all in there. but our recall librarian is not trained from birth to sort through DMT affected visions and bring them back at will like some classy concierge, He needs practice
this method really works. there are certainly hundreds of better technique, but I dont know them, so I do this. and it works for me.
let me know what you think, if you will try it (or maybe just did!) and let me know how it works out for you.
