In my first article in the Image Streaming series, I presented external evidence from Charles P. Reinert, which, though non-peer reviewed and never reproduced, suggested that image streaming could possibly increase your intelligence. So, how does a person go about image streaming?
The process is described on other pages found throughout the internet, but in case you stumble here, this is my version:
1) Sit in a chair, or lie down. Relax.
2) Make sure that you have a tape recorder, or another person present in the room.
3) Attempt to clear your mind of the normal background chatter -that little voice which is constantly characterizing, judging, relating to the future and the past - which seems to play continuously (Buddhists' refer to this as the monkey mind) and focus on your breathing.
4) Optional: Ask yourself a question.
5) Focus on your consciousness. When an image, not a thought, enters your mind, describe it in great detail out loud to the tape recorder, or to your partner. DO NOT self edit; DO NOT speak softly, but at a normal volume for conversation. It is quite common to be speaking continuously at this point -for words to be flowing from your mouth like water flows from a tap. Do your best to focus and describe the image.
6) Descriptions using all of the senses are better. Ex: The frog's texture is slimy, it smells like cut grass, I can see its eyes rotating in its head.
7) The images probably will not be clear at first (or even after a while), but feel free to embellish the images with your own details. If you can't perfectly "see" the spots on the image of the frog which enters your mind, imagine visually that they're there, and describe them out loud.
8) As other images enter your mind, follow the same process of verbally describing the images out loud. Use as much detail as possible (this is supposed to make the images become clearer), and describe using all of your senses.
That's it! Following this method should allow anyone to access their "image stream" in no time at all.
The greater problem will be for those people who cannot access their image stream. Don't worry though, there are resources available which will help you start observing images in your mind. Try checking out Win Wenger's image streaming backup procedures to begin; I'll be posting various methods to aid in catalyzing your image stream in the upcoming months.
