would it be possible to concentrate enough to summon your own double, or "doppelganger"?

that is, if you were to focus hard enough, and spend enough time on it, would you be able to create a double of yourself at least in your head to such an extent that said double could access your subconscious?

that is, say, recite whole paragraphs of long since forgotten favorite books or stories?

    Sooo... you're asking advice on how to become schizophrenic?! Hallucinations are not good things to have, and are a really bad way to improve your memory. Get looking for books on how to improve your memory without damaging your sanity! Oh, and avoid hypnosis... more a way to tap your imagination than memory. That's why responsible prosecutors won't use a witness who has been hypnotized concerning the crime in question.

    I have doppelgangers everywhere I go. I never summoned a one of them. I am just a very common looking/acting person. I was around a guy today that everyone keeps coming up to and saying "How are ya Happy Hiram??" And he is like "I'm not Hiram."

    The question is...do YOU? Or would doing so only jeopardize lots of of their deeply held ideals? WHAT do you be conscious of approximately DEEPLY HELD ideals? It faith rather approximately finding actuality or finding the convenience it provides? DO you have a faith? what's YOUR faith approximately? CHRISTIANS do not very own THE industry ON faith. won't we frequently only locate what all of us be conscious of a thank you to seem for? you're making AN ASSUMPTION approximately something OF which you be conscious of not something. Is the soreness cutting-edge in uncertainty the stress which drives us to seek for solutions? WHAT soreness IS THAT? i don't worry soreness...OR death, FOR THAT rely. Does faith artwork to handle the sources of lack of know-how (loss of experience/preparation) or extremely the indicators (worry of soreness)? i don't be conscious of. WHAT DOES YOUR faith artwork to handle? Does the church make the main of those desires for actuality and "actuality" so as boost and unfold their "therapy for lack of know-how" even added into the lots, offering them with much extra means to the comparable? i don't bypass to CHURCH. WHAT DOES YOUR CHURCH DO? they are ALL distinctive. you could properly be appropriate approximately THIS bearing directly to some churches. yet churches are not RUN through GOD, LOL. you're making LIKE GOD CONDONES all of them. If the concentration became rather on assisting the guy locate actuality, why is it so heavily targeted on being the only valid source of actuality extremely than yet another valid means to locate it? it somewhat is not. THERE ARE some WHO experience this type, i think of, yet i don't locate maximum folk TO experience this type. OH, AND CHRISTIANS are not the only ONES WHO experience this type. i assume corporation is corporation, yet in my opinion, if it somewhat is convenience i'm searching for, i'd quicker supply my funds to a psychologist as a results of fact a minimum of they are up-front and hassle-free approximately what they are offering and why. supply YOUR funds TO WHOEVER you like. i don't supply MY funds TO absolutely everyone in the "call OF GOD". HE would not want IT. it somewhat is the adult adult males WHO RUN THE companies who're not UP-front. PLEASE do not BLAME GOD FOR the character DEFECTS OF guy.
