This Guy Can Teach You How to Memorize Anything

It's easy to learn by breaking 100 into 12 Parts (12×9=98) like phone no.

I'm pilipino I'm not good at English so sorry I'm not understand
Using his memory palace I could memorize the first hundred digits of pi 😳
yea…. no
You didn't actually memorize the sequence but a series of images associated with their name to give you values that match the sequence. You could just learn how pi is derived and then calculate it over and over again and you could go on forever, no memorization needed. Memorization is the lowest form of intellect because it will always be erased. It is sustained in the mind but the mind doesn't store information. All information is stored in the heart. You have to live by what you believe in your heart first and foremost. Our heart must be pure to understand anything.

What?
The great Roman rhetorics did this for remembering their speeches. They imagined a huge place with lots of rooms. For every part of their speech they imagined some obscene scenario, the more random and obscene the better, because our mind works like that. So when they were giving the speech, they were "walking through" the space their memory created, so nothing was left out or out of order.
So meaningless
