To be considerate of the influx of hypno related traffic, I'm postponing the posts I had planned. I'm going to start a few posts on VAK learning and Imaginative Specialization. Then, I'll show how knowing your dominant sense can help you predict some effects of hypnosis, and warn you of unexpected effects.
Also, to those new to this blog, welcome! I cover a mix of topics on here, including tulpa, which are:
"Believed to be an autonomous consciousness which also exists in a self imposed hallucinatory body, which is usually much of [the creator's] choice. A tulpa is entirely sentient and in control of its opinions, feelings, movements." -tulpa.info
Regardless of your personal beliefs, I ask that you keep an open mind while reading. If you come across something you can't believe, just move on. If you disagree, feel free to post your responses. Starting a dialogue on the topics here will help both you and me expand our collective knowledge!
New blog post in 6 hours.

Matt on life
I've been in contact with Matt, the same one who asked the questions from Q&A4. Our conversation was interesting, to say the least. He was concerned about my having multiple tulpa, which lead to all sorts of fun adventures through the topics of religion, insanity, and my mind. I doubt most of you will find this interesting, but I'm posting it for completeness' sake, since the conversation played a large role in Pinkie's sudden split earlier this week.

Q&A5: Removing memories
I've had a few interested in how to remove memories, or at least how I do it. I'll post my method... but let me put a MASSIVE WARNING LABEL on it. Whether you use my method or some other, memory removal/modification is dangerous and damaging. You are removing part of your ability forever. I think of it in terms of brain cells... you are literally killing a few to pull this off. You'll never get that back. You'll never know what is was, and you'll never get a chance in the future to come back and deal with the issue. Really... I wouldn't suggest trying this unless it is a life or death thing, where you won't be able to live with yourself. and even then... be careful.
Okay, a few words on my method. I'm an Incredibly visual thinker, so the imagery I use my be beyond auditory or tactile thinkers. I can guess at some analogs for those two, but I'm not testing this anymore, so I can't say for sure. If you are one and HAVE to try, contact me personally and I'll give you advice... but I don't feel posting my untested guesses on what might work is good form.
The original questioner has asked that his name be removed.
Heya. Sorry to bother you, but I was wondering if you had some pointers to give out about removing memories. I've only known how to bury them, not remove.
When I want a memory gone, first thing I do is think about it once. then, I visualize it as a picture and I put the picture in a file, and that file in a box. I take any sounds associated and I make them a recording, I stop the recording, and I put it in the box. I take any feeling and make them into colored orbs, and I put them in the box. I take any other senses and I make them into a thing, then I put that thing in the box. I close the box.
Then, I think about all the things that I used to associate with the memory. Memories from the same time and place, memories of similar events. I find the connections to the box, strings running to it. I cut them. Then I cut them again, over and over, until they are shreaded bits that don't point anywhere. Anything that can't be cut, I pull and twist until it goes somewhere else. Eventually, all those lines that once lead to the box are gone. Just a box, a closed box is left. I don't even know what is in it, only that I need to make it go away.
First I burn it, watching the orbs, the tape recorder, the file, all of them melt. Then I collect the peices, whatever wouldn't burn, and I put it in a new box. This one goes through a crusher, pounding it into the smallest pieces. The dust that is left I put through a fan and spread it around a feild, a massive imaginary feild, until it is a light dust over everything. And lastly, I make it rain until all of the dust is gone and all that remains is a wet feild, without a gravestone or mark.
Whoa, how . . . ornate and pictographic. It sounds like such a complicated process for the removal of a memory, one which I cannot conjure even under hypnosis or psychoanalysis, but for what reason should I reconsider before trying? Is getting rid of a lone memory, no matter how tragic or silly, so dangerous?
I'm a visual thinker with an high level of practice. It actually can be inhibiting when I'm trying to work with those who have a more auditory or tactile method of thought. Regardless, I go through all of this for a reason. A simpler version is simply to, everytime you think of a memory, to block is by pasting ink over it. The auditory version is to start a mantra to block out the thought, only ending when you've started thinking about something else. I prefer 'I reject', simple and powerful. and finally you can set up a switch, like a physical rail switcher in your mind, and shove it to switch your thoughts to a new topic. The reason I don't usually you such simple methods is that they are not permanently effective and that they require maintenance.
How do you know if the memory is successfully removed?
You don't, that is the point. You won't know.
Sometimes, I leave myself a mark to say 'something was here' and that is it.
So you did that when you purposely erased a memory for the first time?
Yes, the first memory I 'fully' removed, I left a marker. Right now... all I know is there is a marker there, and that is what it said it was for.
I have memories of the mantra method, because it never fully worked. I can still see bits of the image around the red ink, for example... it just doesn't stick. But... I basically keep that example around to keep myself convinced that I do have a fully effective method. Otherwise, I wouldn't believe it could be done, and I'd have to relearn/reassure myself every time, you know?
