My memory........................
Sounds me that TL is nuts.
I forgot.
Inside the “White Room”
With black curtains?
I vividly recall things from when I was a kid, not just major events like birthdays or holidays but mundane stuff too. I even recall lectures from my college days more than 50 years ago. My great aunt had a similar memory even when she was 90.
The first word in the headline is “rare.” Then it goes on to say that this reveals how the brain travels through time. Huh? Generalizing from one case? Doesn’t sound like science to me.
My ex-wife could remember stuff vividly, in "emotional detail", but usually not "with unusual accuracy". LOL
In a way, this is reminiscent of Kurt Vonegut’s Slaughterhouse Five. Billy Pilgrim, the main character, says he is ‘unstuck in time’ and travels back and forth from WWII experiences to present time to the future and his death.
I thought it was an interesting story and a decent movie was made of it.
Wilder Penfield, possibly the greatest neurosurgeon of the 20th century was the first to stimulate the cerebral cortex of patients who were fully awake, with mild electrical currents. Occasionally, these patients would relive events in their lives with all of the sensations they experienced at that time. This suggests that our brains have recorded everything we have ever experienced, but we have no means of replaying those recordings.
My nephew has this ability (or disability). He is an unusual person. Long winded answers when you ask a basic question. Pretty soon you stop asking him questions because he’s so annoying with his long drawn out answers. Succinct will never be an adjective used to describe him.
However, I have miniature version of this “ability”. Life events work like a calendar for me. I think because when I had kids, to keep our activities straight, it was always on a calendar. It’s much more generalized than the examples in the article, but generally helps me remember what was going on at one time or another.
The researchers do not understand what they are talking about.
Memories are stored in the soul field, external to the physical body in a very specific pattern.
Consciousness in the soul flows in two counter-rotating fields, masculine to the left and feminine to the right.
The masculine aspect is connected to the hippocampus in the brain, while the feminine aspect is connected to the amygdala.
Memories are stored as holograms at the intersection of the two aspects of consciousness.
The dominant aspect of consciousness in this field determines gender identity, regardless of actual birth gender.
Attraction in relationships is toward our compliment to balance our consciousness. This creates the feeling of Love between two souls.
All of this is physical to my perception ever since I had a near death experience, crossed over to Heaven, and the profound Love there changed my soul when I returned. It raised the frequency of my consciousness to a level where consciousness itself became physical to my perception.
I am able to read people’s stored memories of their life experiences since conception without them saying anything. This ability is because our perception of reality is a function of the frequency of consciousness from which we view it. Being in Heaven raised my consciousness frequency.
Many years ago I worked with a 4 year old boy who was very emotional, and when frustrated would say “I’m going to kill myself.”
I did one session with him that lasted about 2 hours and it totally shifted his personality from the emotional child to a logical identity with a 100% photographic memory. We did not talk about his suicidal statements nor did he ever mention them again, per his mother.
Needless to say, this child with a photographic memory became an academic superstar, continued his education through PhD. and has been a university professor for many years.
The problem is, his shift in consciousness abandoned and ignored his early childhood trauma that triggered his emotional outbursts and did not resolve it. He compartmentalized the trauma and carries it like a ticking bomb within him.
Until scientists understand consciousness and the soul field around the physical body, they will not understand this subject.
I discovered that memories are stored in the soul as a ghost that attached to a woman and caused medical problems, had total recall of all the events from when he was in a physical body, even though his physical body was cremated after the accident that caused his physical death.
After I removed him from the woman he had attached , all her medical symptoms relating to his memories of the trauma during the accident, disappeared from her body.
This is a very complex topic.
Why do we remember traumatic events so vividly?
AI Overview
We remember traumatic events vividly because the amygdala activates the stress response, releasing hormones that “burn” essential details into memory. This high-arousal state enhances the storage of frightening and emotionally charged fragments—like sensory images, sounds, and smells—while hindering the hippocampus’s ability to create a cohesive, narrative account. The memory is not fully processed into a historical record but remains an intense, often non-verbal, emotional experience that can feel like it’s happening in the present.
How Traumatic Memory Works
The Brain’s Alarm System:
During a traumatic event, the amygdala acts as an alarm system, sending signals for the body to enter a “fight or flight” state.
Hormonal Boost:
Stress hormones like cortisol and norepinephrine are released, which directly impact the hippocampus and “prefrontal cortex”.
Hyper-Encoding:
The hippocampus goes into “super-encoding” mode, prioritizing the encoding of the most frightening and meaningful aspects of the event.
As it relates to time distortion or time travel, perception of time is a function of the frequency of consciousness from which you view it.
As you raise to higher consciousness frequencies, time collapses.
Early this morning I picked up my wife at the airport. I immediately commented how crazy people were driving.
When she started the 1,000 questions routine, for the first time ever I stopped her, saying I needed to focus on traffic.
Not 5 minutes later, about a half mile down I-40, two cars collided right in front of me and I managed to stop without hitting them. It’s as though I had a premonition that this was going to happen.
PS. Don’t all wives have a photographic memory of all the things we husbands did wrong? 😁
My brain and I do not get along.
I read once that Marilu Henner remembers literally EVerything.
That would be torture, IMO.
Especially impressive are those who can remember 2 or 3 lives ago...
