As I plan to begin seminary in about a year, I wonder if anyone is aware of a recommended mind palace for studying the Bible?
For those not familiar with the concept of a "mind palace," it's basically a memory tool. Those of you who ever attended a "Walk Through the Bible" seminar will remember how the interactivity and motions helped you to remember Biblical events. This is sort of similar, and I've used it with much success in other areas. Basically, you become extremely familiar (especially visually) with a location, preferably a building and all of its rooms and furniture. You then use all of its elements as "hooks" on which to hang knowledge. As a very basic example, in a "Genesis" room, you could visualize a snake slithering out of a hole and on to a table with a fruit basket to remember the tempting of Eve. And as you move your line of sight within the room, you move to other "hooks" with other events/knowledge.
While it's possible to create a mind palace from any building, such as one's house or workplace or a museum, has anyone heard of a recommended location (even fictional) that lends itself well to remembering the Bible as opposed to just picking a building at random?
