I noticed that the time I used to have a lot of paranormal experiences (before dabbling in any occult practice) was the time when I was horribly infatuated with the whole horror entertainment (movies/novels/anime/music…..etc) also the first time I had a lucid dream after many failures was when I spent most of the time reading and consuming every content that relates to the dream world without really putting much effort into practice.
It just seemed that whatever content I consumed excessively was getting me closer to the thing that the content is about which I was seeking
Can this count as form of preparatory immersion and get utilized for practical things like manifestations for example?
I want to hear your opinions.
