How can you use fire kasina meditation to develop hyperreal imagery? How does this differ from mind's eye imagination? Vynn and Francis interview fashion designer Jane Flowers, who has developed a hyperphantasic ability using fire kasina meditation. Jane describes how she developed imagery while doing fire kasina meditation. She talks about the progress from seeing visual snow, to the brain pattern matching it as 3D, to forming plants and rich, controlled shapes. She describes ways to prepare your mind and body for these visualisations. The difference between Jane's kasina visualisations and normal mind's eye visualisations is explored in detail, including tactile sensation and comparison to reporting on psychedelics.
