I had known of localised memory. I can remember, for instance, the exact
place on note cards and on notebooks where I made my jottings (of archival
and other readings) during the past 40 years or so.
But during the formation as Jesuit we were trained on a manual that
constitutes the core of Jesuit formation, namely Spiritual Exercises. There
a young novice is trained the method of "contemplative prayer", wherein he
has to "visualise" the site, persons, etc. It is a prayer of dialogue, which
permits a high degree of concentration. Those interested could read more
about it in Tony de Melo's very popular book entitled *Sadhana: A way to
God*.

Hi Santosh,
Thanks for the information. Patrice Riemens also pointed out the same and
pointed me to the wikipedia site for it. I hadn't checked it out. I called
it visual learning for want of a better term. I had come across this
technique in an article that I read in the Readers Digest as a young school
boy, some forty odd years ago. All my life I have practiced it and found it
quite successful. With sufficient exposure, one can visualize pages of
textual matter or notes quite easily. It just requires practice.
