Can't thank you enough for sharing your Wisdom Anthony 🙏God bless you.

My pleasure, Abid. What are you learning at the moment? :-)

[@weeboo305]

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM At the moment, I'm informing myself on learning how to meditate better, as well as educate myself on nutrition. After that I plan on learning more on how to think more critically, creatively, etc (I have bookmarked some books on abstract thinking for example that I'm planning to read).

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

Wonderful goals! Abstract thinking sounds like a great realm to get into. In many ways, that's what today's guided meditation is a lot about. Critical thinking is great too. I used to teach a fourth-year level course on it at university, so just shout out if you have questions about it.

I have been about two years training my mind's eye, because my goal was able to do thought experiments just like Einstein, or Tesla, I have done a lot of progress, but this meditation is amazing, I just saw things as I am only able to see in dreams, thanks very much, this is truly the best meditation I have ever practiced.

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

Thanks for going through this guided meditation and sharing your feedback. I’m glad it has had a positive impact. May I ask what some of the activities were that you were doing to strengthen your mind’s eye in the past? Many thanks in advance for any details you can share about that. 🙏

[@erickmacias5153]

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM I am in my way to become a mathematician and a physicist, my favorite activity for training my mind's eye is to read a problem, sometimes when the problem is large and complicated I use the Major System to memorize it, I lay down and with my eyes closed I try to solve it, with time I've realized if the problem is easy enough my mind's eye solve it by itself, showing me the steps I have to take, without me counciously having to think about it! It sounds crazy, and I actually believed that reaching this point was near impossible, but it is true, we have here in our heads the greatest computer ever created, we just have to learn how to use it:)

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

Thanks so much for sharing this. I don't think this is crazy at all. Rather, I think it is what the best-of-the-best have always done. And the best part is that just about anyone can do it!

Gosh. You’ve done so much work to help our community. Feeling so much gratitude for your hard work and consistency! I’m hoping you have a video talking about your own journey and plans a bit.

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

There is a TEDx about my personal journey, yes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oafXip2ap86Gpq8 There are a few videos around where I talk about future plans, but often projects are abandoned as scientific exploration of what an audience is interested in dries up. That, or my personal interest fades, or things just don't turn out as planned for whatever reason. But I am working on something now that I think ties together the many themes in a way that will appeal to many more people. We shall see. And if it doesn't work out, older themes may be revisited, or entirely new ones introduced. Thanks for your interest and support!

[@richardfredlund3802]

that time first thing in the morning when you wake up, and also last thing before you sleep, is when it's easiest to visualize clearly. I really love this idea of combining meditation and memory palace's. I didn't consider it before, but I did think of something similar. Which was memory palaces for each of the sensory modalities. The idea is when you go to that memory palace you try and experience as much as possible in that modality. I.e. in the touch memory palace, think in terms of textures, what does the banister feel like, the carpet, the walls etc. In the sound memory palace, what can you hear. Loading each one with as many associations as possible.

[@GarrettBodman]

This guy's great. "Hyperphantasia" reminds me of lucid dreaming.

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

There might be a relationship there, it's true. Mind you, I have had many lucid dreaming experiences, and they weren't particularly visual. Usually they are much more kinesthetic, with the visual element being mostly conceptual. And I've had some really weird ones... I might have to share some of those experiences one day. Do you think you would like more of these guided meditations on this channel? :-)

[@GarrettBodman]

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM Yes I enjoyed this meditation a lot. Anything that help you get into touch with direct subjectivity and wakes you up to the miracle of NOW feels very good... that hyper-aware sense of Consciousness of Self is exhilarating and exalting ;).

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

Yes, the NOW does indeed feel fantastic. The best part is when you can extend that contact beyond the meditation. I have found a mixture of movement and passage meditation useful for that. I have much more these days, but this is the text that really got me started on full passage meditation: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZixgmyYipKhe8k It gets into procedural memory and then reminds you throughout the day not to take the clouds of thought that obscure contact with consciousness too seriously. They start to blow away with much greater ease almost without having to do anything.

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

[@PulseCodeMusic]

I have aphantasia... finding out fascinated me, that there are people with different experiences. I didn't see it as a problem but was curious to find out if I can have new experiences by changing it. Trying to solve it (frustratingly unsuccessfully) is starting to make it feel like a problem though. If you do any more please talk a bit more slowly with gaps. It's hard to relax and reflect when there is no space.

[@countesschewi2399]

Being a visual artist, visualisation is a huge help when it comes to being able to take what's in my brain and bring it to life with pencil, pen and paint. But for whatever reason I struggle to visualise clearly - I can definitely see things sometimes, but it's normally quite clouded and faded like the brightness and opacity of a video has been turned down. (If I do occasionally see something clearly, it'll only be for a fraction of second.) I am able to hear and touch and taste though, so I haven't given up hope that I can eventually visualise clearly. I've tried a few methods to train, but this video has helped me understand more about visualisation than I had initially. So thank you very much for producing this meditation, and hopefully with more practice I'll eventually be able to see inside my mind more clearly.

Thank you very much for this vid! ... Are you familiar with the visualization regimen of Nikola Tesla?

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

Thanks for your post. I’m aware that he was tormented by images he could not release himself from as a kid. He then used positive visualization to combat these and this eventually led to imagining various invention. As he describes this, it goes far beyond mere “visualization,” though. And many people miss the part about how he would “feel” that his mental conclusions would be accurate. But they still went through drafting and manufacture and testing like any other invention must. Sadly, those stages are elided in a world more interested in fantasy than reality. Not only were there many errors, but he sometimes had to think about solutions for several years. Or am I missing something in my understanding? 🙏

Whenever he said something, anything, that could conjure a mental image in ones head I saw it and combined with all the sounds, sensations, lights, colors, noises, movements and all the different items combined it gave me a headache because it was just completely overpowering to me. I highly suspect that I have hyperphantasia, especially after what I just experienced.

The thing for me is that I can image myself anywhere, at any time, but the picture is not super vivid. Almost like the landscape/scene is at the back of my mind. I can go from a forest to a beach but the picture is distant and and the details of my surroundings aren't clear. I was just wondering how come, and it's ok if you don't know an answer.

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

It is indeed impossible (at the moment) to know what is going on in anyone else's mind. But one reason why you might feel this way may stem from your particular definition of vividness. It's possible that what you're experiencing is much more vivid than what I experience, for example. But how you define it might make that hard for you to track.

[@nangk2727]

I can relate. Visualised images don't come to the "front" of my mind but rather feel like they are somewhere behind or on top of me.

[@radiofreefairbanks]

I just turned 49, and my wife was reading and said “I think this is you”. I read it and said what do you mean? Don’t you see that as well. No. So reading about this I am what seems to be the extreme, nothing is difficult with my mind. I was honestly bored watching this, and skipped ahead, ☺️, and got to where you named off the yak and the color and the rest, as fast as you named them I saw each one, and quickly added many features before the next word. Star Wars, when I first saw it at the age of 5, changed my life, the force seemed a little like what I could do, and I certainly was a Jedi in my mind as a little boy. Anyway I would like to learn more about this.

[@radiofreefairbanks]

I honestly don’t know how people can function now. How do you communicate without having the conversation 500 times before it happens? Don’t you open the door in your mind over and over until you actually do? When I was a kid I stayed awake most nights, as I would have my daydreams at night in my room, when it’s dark it’s easier to imagine, eyes open, and swam through my worlds, and fears. I think I know why some songs make me cry, movies, words, scenes, and the other side of sad too. Every word has 10,000 pictures..

Reading about this the last 2 days I see that I have at least 3 synesthesia things, I’m not sure what they are yet really, but I definitely have 3 of them. Have? Not sure how to put it. Fun

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

It must be wonderful to have the gift of visualization like this. Congrats! There's a lot of information about synesthesia, including on my blog. There's more conversation in the comments on both the synesthesia and hyperphantasia posts. I'm not sure how to answer your question about communication. As far as I can tell, all the conversations I hold have happened thousands of times before. It's basically just morphology and syntax unfolding in real time based on one's mother tongue with reference to the limited set of possible conversations here on earth, under the sun. Does this way of looking at things make sense?

[@radiofreefairbanks]

That does make sense. I can see now that I used that to base whether I would ask or tell my parents something, after every good or bad outcome was rehearsed, I would decide whether or not I wanted to say anything. I still do it, although I’ve learned to control things in my mind better now, but I have to remeber that my wife doesn’t have to answer the way my mind played out a certain conversation, the thing in my mind wasn’t real, but it certainly is just as real to me as when I’m talking out loud. To hard to write what I mean. I’ll dig into the blog for sure. Anything else that can help me understand, even though finding out not everyone thinks this way, has opened my mind of why I do things and think differently.

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM I’m looking at it right now. I’m very new to this but feel like this could be a game changer. Thank you for your time. I have feel asleep to a couple of your videos over the last couple of days.

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

It has been a game changer for many. The trick is to get set up on the strongest possible footing from the getgo.

[@InterestMedia101]

do you think this meditation has more benefits then image streaming?

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

This is effectively Magnetic Image Streaming, which I believe is better and more beneficial than the other forms. I’d be curious to know your outcomes if you put both styles into a split-test. 🙏

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM so can i get photographic/eidetic memory from this meditation?

[@InterestMedia101]

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM yo old dude you gonna reply or not?

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

I have no reason to believe that photographic memory exists. Eidetic memory is very interesting, but I've seen no evidence that it can be developed or is even necessary to develop in order to improve your memory.

[@freddyhercz153]

@@InterestMedia101 I knew a person with an eidetic memory, but he was weird and unfocused. Long term spatial memory is a lot more useful and cool.

i can't see,touch,smell,hear what I think. No one believes me when I tell that. But I recently remember me imagining something that's too ashaming to say. Since I am anonymous in Internet , I'll share it here. That I used to imagine my teachers naked when I was 14_15 years old. Female teachers even though I am female. Until I remembered that, I thought I never visualized and realized others can visualize the things in real. I was 17 when I discovered this condition of mine. I was a huge lover of books but it hurts too much while thinking that others can literally see what they read . and me here who just sees some mere letters. I really wanna get out of this. what should i do?

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

I suggest learning how to be unbothered by the contents of the mind and/or becoming unbothered by the fact of being bothered. Here's the thing that helped me the most: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oafXip2ap86Gpq8

[@ChooseCompassion]

I have had Aphantasia since I had a serious concussion that gave me major migraine episodes weekly for many months that was eventually cured with CBD. The last of several concussions. I used to be able to meditate where I was flying over mountains and I could feel the breeze and see the mountains and surroundings in full color but now even guided visual meditations do absolutely nothing. I’ve bought crystals that were specifically to help open your third eye but nothing seems to work. I think it’s almost worse to have had it once for a very long time then not be able to visualize anything.

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

Sorry to hear about your experiences. Unfortunately, it's very unlikely that crystals will help. Going through this meditation a few times along with the other memory exercises I teach are a more likely way to improve. Aim to practice for 90 days.

[@ChooseCompassion]

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM Yes obviously the crystals didn’t work but I will do what you suggested. I feel robbed and I want that ability back. Thank you so much for your generosity. It’s greatly appreciated especially since everything else I’ve read and listen to said it was basically hopeless. ☮️

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

I do not believe that this situation is hopeless. Worse case scenario: You learn to work with what you've got and find out that consciousness is equally blissful just as it is. Happy to help in any way that I can. :-)

[@ChooseCompassion]

@@AnthonyMetivierMMM Peace & blessings. Thank you! That’s what I have been doing but I can’t help it mess what I used to experience. 💫

[@Vexarax]

@@ChooseCompassion - I am sorry to hear about your troubles :c have these techniques helped your situation at all? I feel trapped out of half my mind because of my aphantasia - I feel your pain even though I didn't lose it exactly (something happened when I was young, which is when I can pinpoint that I shut the images off before I had chance to expand on them or explore them, that was 2 decades ago now). I feel like my brain is stagnating (even though I use it a lot, just not the visual part), so I came here in the hopes of finding something I can at least try to commit to, in the hopes of seeing improvement?? I hope you are doing okay 🌻

[@johnathanoverton6122]

But what does it mean for those I love?? That they are some sort of agreed upon construct to come and go as I will? And of death?

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

What specifically about this exercise raises these questions in your mind?

[@johnathanoverton6122]

I suppose I would have to give it another listen. I must have been considering the fundamental nature of reality and mental constructs. That all physical reality is symbolic of the mental realm. Your question is fair. I will listen to the video again and try to pinpoint the specifics residing within this exercise. These questions do not seem far from ideas you seem to ponder, though my familiarity with your person is this video and roughly half of the interview you conducted with John Graham. Of course, my own orientation at the time of listening likely has as great a role in the ecological model as does the exercise.

[@johnathanoverton6122]

Oh! If I recall, I believe you were conversing about how everyday life is actually active hyperphantasia. Of course, the implication there is that the world is as we see it transpiring.

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

I do consider these issues, but often people misunderstand the exact nature of how I am approaching them. I would suggest completing the interview with John and also the recent one with Nelson Dellis and perhaps reading The Victorious Mind in full to gain a better understanding of my approach. In my approach, the "nature of reality" is the subject of endless questions, never any answers. Those who think they have answers are essentially practicing transcendent philosophy, whereas I am talking about pure immanence. More on that in this discussion with Nelson: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oGOXYZh8j7OkZpY

[@BT-sq7en]

i can visualize but i cant feel it :( why is that

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

What is the "it" you are referring to?

[@BT-sq7en]

I cant feel wind in my imagination , also the water

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

But you just said you can't feel things? What can't you feel?

[@BT-sq7en]

in my mind , i just see some imagination without any feeling/ emotion attach on it

[@mswhunter118]

I don’t understand this title. Hyper indicates you visualize very well

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

Hyper means "over," "above," "beyond." Phantasia in this sense means fantasy and imagination. Hence, the exercise involves going above or beyond mere visualization and into other realms.

[@purplez3835]

Can we use this to manifest the reality we want?

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

In my experience, we don’t manifest reality. Reality manifests us.

[@anthoneyvaneeden5367]

Really hate when ads are placed in the middle of Meditation videos. I'd rather watch 5 ads before the beginning of the video than have one break my trance like state. Thumbs down. Will not watch anymore of this content. If KZbin is responsible for the placement of that ad and not the Content creator I apologise

[@AnthonyMetivierMMM]

These days, they run them even if you shut them off, which as you point out is deeply problematic. Shoot me an email and I can get you a version you can download and play without interruption - though I do mention my site and this content would not exist without the understanding of people who kindly support my work directly. Thanks for your patience and understanding in the meantime and warm wishes for reaching the goals that made you interested in this video.
