Markabs from LRH6308C06
Here are some extracts about Markab from a fair use interpretation
of LRH tape 6308C06 SHSpec-291 "Auditing Comm Cycles"
<snip>
This planet was part of a Federation, and passed out of its control
due to war, etc. This federation has been called the Markab
Confederacy. This sounds space-opera-ish, but it is true. It should
be stated, whether it is acceptable or not. The planets of the
confederacy united, out of fragments of earlier civilizations, over
the past 200,000 years, but it is not native to this galaxy. In the
past 200,000 years, mental implanting has been taking place that is
not native to earlier track. The Markabians have the basic problem
of how to kill a thetan. The best way to hide your overts is to
give someone amnesia and tell them that something else happened.
That's what is going on here. Their ideal is the conformist. What
they are conforming to is pretty scummy and low-toned. Their
standard choice citizen is the contented wage slave. This leaves
the artist, the brilliant engineer, the manager, the criminal, and
the pervert all persona non grata. They are afraid of all these
types, so they condemn them to perpetual amnesia, calling it being
"dead forever". Then they ship them here. So on this planet, we
have a minimal number of workers and a maximal number of artists,
geniuses, managers, criminals, and perverts. How do you make an
organization out of these dudes? They are all non-conformists.
Therefore the difficulty you get in organizations with these people
is alter-is.
This has led to a civilization on this planet that is totally
different from the civilization that planted it here, until recently,
when current western civilization started to look like the Markab
Confederacy. The fact that current western civilization has the same
image as the Markab Confederacy makes this civilization
restimulative; it makes it look dangerous. One of the highest crimes
in the Markab civilization is error in income tax. That makes
matters relating to income tax very restimulative, here.
The material of the between-lives area is contained in What to Audit
[A History of Man, pp. 65-66]. The Markabians have not launched a
big reaction to the fact that their secrets are out, probably because
they fear that a landing in force would restore everyone's memory and
blow the amnesia. People get mad at governments and organizations on
this planet because they are really mad at the Markabian government.
Almost unbelievable force was used by the Markabians to create the
amnesia. You can easily restimulate people's amnesia by giving them
some data about the Markabians. It seems very unreal to them.
As an auditor, therefore, you are handling the roughest case in the
universe. To rehabilitate the individual, you have to rehabilitate
his knowingness. Charge on the case represents lost knowingness. As
the case moves up the line, you get an odd phenomenon: the case
remembers more. One kind of memory that is restored is picture
memory. At an advanced state, the PC can tell the difference between
a false and a genuine picture. He graduates up to simply knowing,
without depending on pictures, up to a point of knowing who and where
he has been, independent of cross-proof. Knowingness is slow to
increase, but it does rise. Over the top of that
identity-knowingness, which is still rather general, comes detailed
knowingness, e.g. knowing how you got here, why you are here, and
other details of the past, without pictures. That is the restoration
of the beingness of the individual. It returns gradually, bit by
bit, along this gradient.
What does it take to bring about such a total amnesia? A total
explosion of a spaceship in his face, twice, was enough to be a
little confusing to LRH. It takes far more force than that to
destroy someone's memory to the point where he would have a case.
The force also has to be combined with trickery: scrambling dates,
giving balanced items, etc., to keep the thetan's memories scrambled.

Knowing scientology, if you were in the Galactic Confederation now,
you would be enthroned. You could fix up all the messed-up OT's, as
long as you could listen. In the confederation, your PCs Wouldn't
have all the enforced amnesia you have to get rid of with an earth
PC. It would be like the difference between auditing an earth case
and an ant.
