 subj : Super Scio - Scientology's New PR Websites


SCIENTOLOGY'S NEW PR WEBSITES

The bland similarity is unbelievable.

If ever proof were needed that the current active membership
are "Rondroids", you need only click through a bunch of
these sites to confirm that fact.

And yet I know some of these people and at least a few of
them are NOT the ultra conforming robots that the sites
make them appear to be.

I know some with intense and facinating personal stories,
who might have something really interesting to say about
Scientology, both good and bad.

Some of these are talanted people with varied tastes and 
interests and who could have many links and facinating things 
apart from their connection to Scientology.

There was one where I was sure, on recognizing the person's
name, that he would have altered his site intensively and
turned it into an asthetic creation of some sort.  He 
would have the skill and talent and inclination to do so.
When I saw it, I literally couldn't believe that it was
another pure clone site with no personal touches.

So I put on my droid valance and inquired as to what 
was the procedure if I should want to put up one of 
these sites myself.

Thank goodness I've done TRs extensively, because what
they told me was hilarious.

They have a computer set up (I wouldn't say which org I
was asking at) where you can enter your data for customizing
your webpage and then THEY SEND IT UPLINES FOR ISSUE
AUTHORITY.

I'm sorry I didn't find out more.  When I heard this I
wanted to start rolling around on the floor with laughter.

It was laughter mixed with grief actually.  One of these
situations where you want to laugh uncontrollably about
something that is really very terrible.

Because in one fell swoop, they had wasted entire shiploads
full of personal talent and ability to communicate.

This program is officially known as "Scientologist On Line".
And it is appropriate that it is "Scientologist" instead
of "Scientologists" online because it is one single
imaginary Scientology cloned endlessly rather than a 
group of individuals.

And its interesting to note that most of the cloned sites 
don't even have e-mail addresses.  And some of the FSM
PR that has been mailed about this talks about how the
FSM will be able to enlighten new people via e-mail, but
apparantly they are already backing off from that.

It is a pure waste of time for them and actually very 
out-PR (bad public relations) because all a prospective 
customer would need to do is see two or more of these 
things and they would conclude that all Scientologists 
are robots.

But it did result in a refreshing new site.  Check out
members.aol.com/hunnicut.  A true Reform Now site with
freezone and critical links built out of the Scientology
starter kit.  Obviously he neglected to get issue
authority.

 subj : Super Scio - Safe For Standard Techies


SAFE FOR STANDARD TECHIES


I would ask that ARS and ACT try a bit harder to make these
newgroups safe for standard technophiles.

Here I am talking about the people who adhere closely to
standard tech but who wish to see the organization reform.

Please realize that if a Scientologist says anything critical
of the organization or supports a reform movement, he is
dead meat as far as the organization is concerned.

He could quote Ron chapter and verse and be a sterling defender
of standard tech and yet if he were to say that he didn't
trust Int Management, he would be "forwarding the enemy line"
and in trouble with Ethics.

There are a lot of Scientologists in this halfway zone.  It
is unsafe for them to talk within the organization because
they disagree with management and it is unsafe for them to
talk outside of the organization because they like standard
tech too much and so they end up in this stuck point unable
to move in either direction.

The CofS has polarized the battle into one between the guys
in the white hats and the guys in the black hats and there
is little tolerance for those who like to wear grey.

Some of you on ARS might say that these people belong on
ACT, but ACT is into a broader definition of tech and
exploring alternatives and tends to challange anybody who
has a narrower view, expecting them to be able to defend
their postiion rather than simply quoting Hubbard.

I have no trouble with this because I am a 1950s tech
proponent, which gives me a more flexible framework that
allows for both standards and offbeat variations and
research and even mixing practices with none of it being
considered squirreling (squirreling is only altering the
tech so as to make it unworkable by the old definition).

But it is rough on standard tech proponents who do not
know the subject well enough to defend it but who have
made enough gains to believe in the tech.

I believe that this is where the majority of Scientologists
are sitting right now.  They are between a rock and a 
hard place.  They can't bear to support the critics or
even the Freezoners and yet they can't bear to walk into
an orthodox organization either.

For a case in point, Lakis was recently accused of being
a Scientology plant on ACT.  Here is a bit of his reply -

On 9 Apr 98, lakis agrogiannis <agrogiannis@swipnet.se>
posted to ACT on subject "LAkis a plant etc"

Now some of you might think that he is too pro Hubbard and
likes the church too much and so forth.  But let me tell
you that the above is pure HERASY as far as the current
CofS is concerned and that even in saying this much he is
suitable for burning at the stake.  He can get away with
this as long as he doesn't walk into an org because OSA
has bigger fish to fry and ethics officers don't go hunting
for people who are not active on lines, but he would be
in trouble if he tried to do a course and ethics found
out about the above.

I have also noticed that a whole bunch of technophiles
have started communicating intensively with each other
on FZA's bulletin board.  You might look at one or two
messages and say "oh no, more Hubbardites!", but if you
look a little further you will see that these guys have
serious problems with the orgs and are quite in support
of reform.  And please don't go bothering them because
they have nowhere else to talk.  They will show up on
ARS or ACT eventually if you don't scare them off first.

And notice that there must be a hundred or so supportive
messages from pro-reform Scientologists on the various
FZA pages such as the Pilots guest book, the FZA guestbook,
and the reform comments page.  Many of them are annonymous
and very careful about their identities.  Please realize
that they are taking risks and are in trouble with the
orgs if they even look at FZA nothing to say of posting
there.

If the usual lurkers to posters ratio holds, there must
be at least ten thousand lurkers of this sort watching
what is going on here.

I'm not asking you to tolerate bullshit or make nice
with the OSA shills.

But when a new poster shows up and says "I love tech"
(without the stupid "go to ..." urls at the bottom),
please ask for their opinion on CofS operating practices
before you start firing with both barrels.

I know some of you do this already.

Thank you,

The Pilot

QUESTION FOR GERRY ARMSTRONG ON LINE OF ATTACK

This is an interesting one and I'd like to dig into it a bit
deeper.  The quote does sound like something I've heard from
various Sea Org idiots at one time or another.

But it is not from the older tech, its one of the stupidities
that came in later.

So far I haven't been able to find the LRH reference for this
one.  Do you know where it's from?

ANSWERING WGERT

(since I don't use e-mail, it would help if somebody would
e-mail a copy of this to him to be sure he gets it)

On 6 Apr 98, wgert@loop.com (wgert) posted on subject 
"Re- Attention: The Pilot" from NNTP posting host

Beautiful.

You have proven my theory that OSA and the Big League FSMs
who shill for it are very carefully reading and saving
my posts.

The wall of silence on your part really has been a pretense.

I was sure that this was the case, but it is really nice to
have my theta perceptions validated by real physical universe
observation.

And this also tells me for sure that you are avoiding comm
out of hostile reasons rather than because of a deep down 
knowingness that what I'm doing is really the right thing.
But of course we both know that the kind of people who could 
have appreciated my actions as being pro-tech have been 
purged from the upper ranks for a long time.

And now we see the overt motivator sequence at work.  Your
own ev purps (evil purposes) have twisted you into shooting
yourself in the foot yet again.

Your ev purp was to use "Black Scientology" to blow me off
of this newsgroup.  For the uninitiated, Black Scientology
is the intentional use of Scientology data in a backwards
manner to harm rather than to help.

The reverse datum used here was to try to intentionally create
a "blow" (a sudden departure) by missing a withhold (missed
withholds are supposed to cause a person to blow).

The way to miss a withhold is to put the person into a "maybe"
as to whether or not something has been found out which they
are trying to keep hidden.  The uncertainty drives them up
the wall and sticks their attention and finally they get the
hell out of the area to get away from this.

So you picked up the NNTP posting host out of the message
header of my ORIGINAL POST (not Future808's reply) and announce
it with great import and pretense of being close to finding
out who I am in the hope of getting me so worried and scared
that I'll run away.

I'm Rolling On The Floor with laughter!

It took you 14 MONTHS to learn to pull a full message header
which any smart kid could have gotten in 14 MINUTES!

Yeah, I've been on ARS for 14 MONTHS now and you are no closer
than the first day that I started posting.

Don't you know by now that I use my OT POWERS to take over
other people's computers at a distance and make them post
my messages for me?

Wouldn't it be funny if your own address of 207.211.61.132
was the origin of the message you are now reading?

If the shock is too great you can run a locational on yourself.
If you don't even know that much tech, see the first process
in Chapter 1 of the self clearing book.

If this post sounds a little 1.1, you are right, because I
am trying to match tones with you in the hopes of having
you actually duplicate what I'm saying for a change.  Since
I'm doing this on purpose, you can stop congradulating yourself
for having driven me down tone.

I really wish you would get the difference between really
preserving the tech (I make every possible effort in that 
direction) and preserving OSA (and thereby perpetuating
OSA's inhumanity to man).

I have a nifty reference for you to look up.  Borrow a copy 
of the cassette series called "Creating a new Civilization".
It contains a lecture called "The Consequences of Organization".
It is tape 5611C22 OS-11 (number 11 of the Organization Series
originally given on 22 November 1956).

You will love the tape because it is full of ranting against
Pavlov and crowing about wins in training the British Olympic
sharpshooter's team that year.  I really wish somebody would
transcribe this one and put it up on the net.  Because it
has one nice little kicker at the end.

Ron is talking about the psychs and so on as being "man
from mud" organizations.  And then, at the end, he says that
we must not make the tech secret or limit knowledge of the
most advanced processes to a selected few at the uppers
levels because the second we do that, we will become a
"man from mud" organization just as bad as the psychs and
so on.

Listen to the tape.

There is still hope for you.

I write this in full confidence that an entire army at OSA
will be reading this carefully.  Maybe somebody could scrounge
up that tape and let it play in the background while you
type in your latest spams.

 subj : Super Scio - The Year 2000 Bug


THE YEAR 2000 BUG


This may be slightly off topic, but there was a raging discussion
on ACT recently and there is some applicability to the CofS
situation because their inflexible management style is sure
to get them into trouble (I'll discuss that at the end).

I work in the software industry and I am an expert in this
area, so I think that my analysis is more accurate than the
trolls and rumors that are flying around.  There are other
good sources but you need to be reading high tech publications
to see these things firsthand.

-----

1. WHAT IS THE Y2K PROBLEM 

Old software used only 2 digits for the year without keeping
track of the century.  Most especially, mainframe Cobol only
returned a 2 digit year in the standard function for getting
the system date (lower level internals do not have this limitation).

If a date is only being printed or displayed, it doesn't matter.

Date comparisons and date arithmatic (how many months is a
bill past due) on 2 digit years will function incorrectly across 
the year 2000 boundary unless special provisions are made
(such as considering any year below 50 to be greater than
any year above 50).

The bulk of new software uses 4 digit years or makes other
special provisions.

Anything which naturally can have a span greater than 100
years has always handled this in some workable manner.  If
birthdates are recorded and used in calculations, they already
have to allow for people born in 1893 for example, so whatever
they are doing already works and will not be a problem.

Fixing or replacing or even simply testing existing software 
in a large shop costs a fortune.  It is not simply the cost
of the software itself but also the tremendous effort required
to convert databases and so forth.  The code itself is
usually easy to fix but finding the one line that has to
be changed in a 50 thousand line program (and even finding
the source code which might not even exist anymore) can
be a major effort.

Some businesses are prepared and some are not and some are
halfway in between.

----

2. WHAT AREAS ARE MOST SENSATIVE

Accounting and financials.  These often involve date calculations.

Also scheduling systems, such as scheduling preventative 
maintenance or tracking the shelf life of a product or determining
how long to retain an archive tape.

Really archaic hardware might have a system clock which cannot
cross the boundary, but this is should be rare.

Most other software will not be affected significantly.


----


2. WHO IS READY

The biggest potential hit is to the Banking and Finance
industry.  These have the most critical date calculations
including such things as calculating interest over time periods
and so forth.

But for this exact reason, these are the people who are best
prepared and who have been throwing the most money at the
problem.

Visa has already strong armed every member bank into a
guarantee of anything affecting Visa card issuance/authorization
and the few businesses that didn't want to invest in complying
have already sold off their credit card base because their
right to issue Visa would already have been revoked if they
hadn't.

The banks and so forth have not only been protecting themselves
but also firewalling against domino effects coming through
from abberant external systems and the big ones will have task
forces primed to jump on any problems that do appear.

Here I am only knowledgeable in US and International US
affiliates and I cannot say what it will be like in other 
countries.  There may be some third world banks which crash 
and burn.

But I would suspect that financial institutions in high tech 
countries are well prepared in this area.

Software companies should also be well prepared execpt for the
few who might be planning to close their doors on Jan 1, 2000.

I would also assume that really big business (Fortune 500) have
their accounting systems well braced for this.

And this is the first time that I've been really happy that
the Federal Reserve Bank is an independent bank rather than
being run by the government.  It is operated like a financial
institution and not like a government bureauocracy and is
prepared for this like the other banks.


----

3. WHO IS UNPREPARED


Some small businesses will get caught by surprise and will
suffer.  Some will find their accounting systems going belly
up.  It will only be a certain percentage, but they will feel
the pain.

But a really small business will gnerally be able to bypass
manually.  When the payroll run crashes, they will write
out their 10 or 20 paychecks by hand or whatever.

It will mean overtime and lots of confusion but I don't think
that any small business will be wrecked directly, their
real danger is in problems that may occur with larger businesses
that they are dependent on.

It is the medium to large non-financial businesses that 
might not prepare adequately and who might suffer immensly.

Don't be surprised if you walk into a hotel and find that
they have not only lost your reservation but that they have
a big chalk board up in the lobby on which they are assigning
rooms.

Some accounts recievable systems will crash so that a business
can't get its invoices out.  Some payables systems will crash
so that a business can't pay its bills.  Some payroll systems
will crash so that the paychecks come late.

This will mainly happen to businesses that do something other
than accounting for their actual products because people
who work in the area directly will be better prepared.

Some businesses will suffer because others don't pay their
bills.

And of course the government bureaucracys are the least
prepared and there will be terrible mess and confusion.
Be prepared for late social security checks, lost paperwork,
and all sorts of annoyances.

For example, in January of 1996 California began issueing
drivers licences that expired in the year zero and this
was taken by other software to mean that the drivers licence
had been revoked.  There was much confusion and running around
and inconvienience and extra work and the net result was
that all they were all reissued as expiring in the year 01.

This was simply one solveable problem which made a mess
that took months to straighten out.  Now imagine that 
all the similar problems trigger all at once in
Jan of 2000.


----

4. WHAT WILL HAPPEN

Be prepared for lots of hassels and confusion.

Some businesses will fail, usually after a few months of
struggle.

Some businesses will boom because their main competetor
failed or has grown inefficient while they themselves were
well prepared.

Expect long lines and sporatic shortages of things on a
random basis.

Expect that the ATMs will keep working but they might
often run out of cash because some businesses will 
be screwed up and only taking cash over the counter
while they try to fix their computers.

There will be a boom in programming jobs, accounting jobs,
clerical jobs (count the inventory again because we lost
the records), and lawfirms (because of a boom in lawsuits).

Wise investors are positioning themselves this year, moving
what they want to into gold etc. and shifting their portfolios
around to match their predictions of who will boom and who
will fail.

There will be some wild market trading in the last few months
of 1999.  There will be some panicked investors shifting
things around based on last minute rumors and there will
probably be a last minute rush to pick up more gold etc.
This will all be over before Jan 1, 2000 and the new
year will probably start with a quite "wait and see" as
businesses prove their actual preparation or the lack
thereof.  Many problems will not show up until month end
or monthly billing cycles are run.

I do not expect a disatrous market crash or economic collapse,
but I do expect some wild fluctuations and moments of panic.

I would recommend having some reserves and some supplies
on hand to carry you through a bad day or a bad week.
I would suggest having more than the usual cash on hand
and if you have the resources, also holding some gold and
some conservative investments.  Beyond this, if you have
real money invested I would suggest maximum diversity
(some businesses will fail and others will boom, don't
have all your eggs in one basket) and emphasising businesses
which might be able to make money from the confusion.

----

5. OTHER YEAR 2000 TROUBLES

In the above, I have only addressed the Y2K computer
problem.

There will also be social effects due to the significance
of the date.

Of course we can expect some cults to go completely bananas.

But on a less dramatic level, many people will see it as
a time to change their lives and do something different.
This will be further fuled by businesses going bankrupt 
and also by new opportunities opening up.

So you can expect a great deal of change and social unrest.

Many people will expect something to happen and therefore
they will make something happen.

So we can expect that some really wild shit may take 
place but it is impossible to guess exactly what or 
when.  If we're lucky it will be a few wild orgies in 
the city parks instead of a repeat of the LA riots.

----


6. THE SCIENTOLOGY FOOTBULLET


I would expect that self clearing, freezone practices, and
all other new age practices will experience a bit of a boom
because of the change and unrest and the importance that
people will place on the date itself.

The orthodox CofS should experience a similar boom except
that they are designed to shoot themselves in the foot
in circumstances like this.

It will be a situation of maximum change that requires
great flexibility and adaptation to moment to moment
variations.

Management by statistics will kill them because there
will be momentary fluxuations out of their control.
And they can't blame any outside source and they must
have scapegoats and put heads on pikes.  And they follow
fixed policies rather than having managers who can make
fast command descisions to handle an instantaneous
problem or take advantage of a momentary great opportunity.

The footbulleting will approach machine gun regularity.

Their remaining staff who are smart and able will adapt
to and handle the flux generated by the year 2000.  And
those will be the ones who will be crucified by management
for violating policy and thinking for themselves.

I expect that the search for scapegoats will reach
witch hunt proportions unless they reform before that
date.

-----


7. AFTERWORD


All of the above are of course invalid if the Marcabian's
land or The Rapture begins or some other event of Biblical
proportions does take place.

I'm not predicting anything like this, but if there is
something of this magnitude in the cards, the year 2000
is the time when any smart invader or demi-god would
schedule it for because of the increased confusion and
social unrest.

For this I would suggest maintaining good confront, an
open mind, and a flexible postion.  And of course you 
should put the time in now on whatever it is that you do
to improve your ability level and put your own house
in order.

 subj : Super Scio - TO VERITAS


TO VERITAS


First let me say that your website is nicely done and you appear
to have put a considerable amount of work into researching what
is going on with the CofS.

Although I can't confirm everything, I am assuming at this point
that the actual data that you presented, as far as copyright 
ownership etc., is accurate.

I don't, however, agree with your interpretations of the data.
I am not insisting that you are wrong because I don't know what
the real truth is, but it strikes me that you view is too
shallow and does not adequately account for the situation.
My feeling is that you have a piece of a much larger puzzel.

Since I am assuming that your intentions are honest, I'd
like to suggest a few things for further digging.  If you
can really get to the bottom of the whole mess, I think
that everyone but the villians would be most gratefull.

First let me confirm that Lyman Spurlock is still a major 
power within the CofS and he is certainly a member of the
notorious coven of 12 that is immediately beneath DM.

Whether or not Lyman or another of the 12 or some tax accountant
is actually the power behind the throne still remains to be 
seen.

The presence of the 3 sidekicks helping Lyman to setup a
corporation does not imply that they are actual powers since
this might only have been done for purposes of record.

As to Meade Emory and his IRS history, I would ask you to
please dig deeper and find out about his history prior to
the IRS.  I know nothing about the man, but it would not
surprise me to hear that he was either CIA or Guardian
Intelligance or both in the 1960s.

A large percentage of the coven, including DM himself,
were children of Scientologists and were all recruited
into the Sea Org simultaneously at some point in the 
late 1970s.  They were recruited for the CMO and may all
have been sent off together for some kind of secret 
training as part of the recruitment.  The group was 
observed together around the LA complex and then disappears
completely for awhile and then the whole crowd reappears
at the top of the CMO command structure.  There is 
something mysterious here and I have not been able to
get specifics but only rumors from various people who
were in the SO at that time.

The lawyers and accountants used by Ron prior to his
disappearance and the ones who subsequently came forward
and any interaction between them should also be looked into
further.

The files captured in the FBI raid were either very 
incomplete or were whitewashed by CIA agents either 
in the FBI or within CofS itself prior to the raid 
because there is little mention of CIA in these documents 
and the CIA rather than the FBI was the number one 
target of GO activities in the late 1960s.

I know nothing concrete and the rumors are a dime a
dozen, but the whole mess goes back much earlier and
much wider than what you are looking at.

I would really like to know who is pulling the strings.

Maybe this would make a good episode for the X-Files.

I am a reformed rather than an orthodox Scientologist.

I will try to answer from the underlying foundations of the
Scientology faith which are pretty much accepted by all the
various sects.  These foundations consit of things such as
the Scientology axioms, the factors, the phoenix lectures,
the Philadelphia Doctorate Course tapes, the book "Creation
of Human Ability" and so forth.

The upper management of the orthodox CofS might layer some
wierd stuff on top of this, and the critics on ARS will probably
burn your ears off with some of that, but it is surface layering
and a point of contention between orthodox and freezone sects,
so I will argue that the above references apply to the religion
as a whole rather than just a particularly large and obnoxious 
sect within that religion.

 
> Questions of Human Identity
> 1.  Who are we as humans?

In your terms, fragments of God.  In Scientology terms, we have
each separated from the universal life static.  Scientology
Axiom 1 is "Life is Bascially a Static".

> 2.  What is the basic human dilemma?

How to return to "Native State" which is "Co-Existance of Static".

 
> Questions of Human Destiny
> 1.  Why are we here?

Hubbard would say "Life is a Game".  I would say that we are
balancing the eternal nothingness with a richness of creation.
Other interpretations are possible.


> 2.  What happens after death?

The between lives implants which wipe out one's memory before
one reincarnates.

According to Hubbard, this is a prison planet where the souls
are made to be "dead forever" by making them forget who they
are in between each lifetime.

But not all Freezone Scientologists accept this and it
can be debated.  I also consider this one to be only a
possiblity rather than an absolute.

The common agreement between orthodox, reformed, freezone, and
whatever would be a certainty that there is re-incarnation or
an advancement to the point where one could operate without
needing a body.

 
> Questions of Morality
> 1.  What is right living?

Ethics, personal integrety, and responsibility.

Most or all sects will agree on "Ethics is the contemplation
of optimum survival" and also on "Ethics exists to get Tech in"
(meaning the technology of freeing the person from abberation).

Beyond this there may be arguments as to exactly what is
Ethical or what code is appropriate.  The orthodox CofS would
like to convince its members that the most ethical thing to
do is to give money to the CofS.


> 2.  What is our obligation to others?

Again there could be much argument.

The CofS management might say that we are obliged to "Clear 
the planet".

But others, including many orthodox members, might say "Create 
only those effects which others can have easily" (from "New 
Slant on Life").

Another one might be "The greatest good for the greatest
number of dynamics" where the dynamics are a codification
of the impulses to survive through self, family, groups, and
so on.  But even the definitions of the dynamics are arguable
within the freezone since Hubbard himself specualted about
dynamics beyond the 8 that were codified.


> 3.  What are our obligations to non human life?

In Scientology terms this is the 5th of the 8 dynamics.
See the comment on the greatest good above.

 
> Questions about the Sacred
> 1.  What is the sacred?

Because you said "the sacred" rather that asking what is
sacred, I assume that you mean the Scientology equivalent
of God.

This would be the Life Static.  See axiom 1 above.


> 2.  How is the sacred made known?

Through processes which raise awareness.

 
> Please compare and contrast Scientology to one of these religions which
> I have a familiarity with.
> a)  Judaism
> b)  Christianity
> c)  Islam
> d)  Buddhism
> e)  Taoism

It is a religion of seeking knowledge or truth or enlightenment
rather than one of worship.

This puts it in the same class as Tantric Buddhism, Zen Buddhism,
Gnostic Christianity, Christian Science, Unitarianism, Kabbalistic
Judaism, Sufi wisdom (I forget what they call their gnostic
branch, but I know they have one), and the various new age
studies that seek after truth.

The commonality between all of the above also applies to
Scientology.  And I think that if you will look closely, you
will see that the above have more in common with each other
than they have in common with their more popular ritualistic
offshoots.

Scientologists have faith in the immortality of the spirit and
in the use of the tech to eventually achive enlightenment.
They don't believe in worship or rituals.

The orthodox CofS has settled on various inflexible practices
which may eventually become rituals, but it is a young religion
and they are not quite there yet.
 
 
> Thanks in advance,

I always post anonymously and can't be reached by e-mail
because the orthodox CofS attacks anyone who would seek 
to reform it or splinter off into another Scientology
sect.  It is similar to the Spanish Inquisition hunting
for heritics.  In this reguard they are similar to 
Christianity as it was half a millenium ago.

 subj : Super Scio - How To Fly To Markab


HOW TO FLY TO MARKAB


This is humorous but true rather than one of my spoofs.

I found this while browsing around at www.spiritweb.org.  It
actually is a very nice website for new age information and
they have a huge archive of material from tons of sources.

So don't take this as a criticism of them, they just host
things written by others.

The item that I found so entertaining was the "Merkaba Meditation 
according Drunvalo Melchizedek".

Merkaba does sound familiar, doesn't it.  Makes one think of
a place full of fedora hats and ufos.

So I looked at his rundown.

It was a process consisting of 18 steps, where each step included
breathing and body position and various mockup type drills to
do.  Bascially one is concentrating energy and mocking up shapes
and putting them into motion and so forth.

It wasn't bad, actually.  I skipped the breathing and body
positions, but mockup drills are fun so I was doing these
as I read through the rundown.  There was nothing really 
surprising or earth shattering, but you can get some benifit
from any mockups of this type.  At a minimum it is good for
one's powers of concentration and visualization.

But then comes the kicker.

Near the end, he has you set these mockups to spinning so
that they form a flying saucer about 55 feet in diameter 
which surrounds you.

For the final step, you have to ask your Higher Self for
the key to activate the UFO, and of course it will not tell
you until you are ready.

> You will disappear from this world and reappear in another

Of course he does not actually say that this flying saucer is
going to carry you to Markab, but considering the name of
the rundown, that would seem to be the most likely destination.

If anyone does try this and gets wisked away, once you get
to Markab please mock up another flying saucer and have it
carry you back here so that you can tell us all about it.

I'd like to know if the Fedora's are still in style or 
whether I should buy me a Derby.

No because it was an org rather than a mission.  The orgs
were set up as non-profit organizations.  If I remember
right 10% went to the Building fund or to World Wide and
the rest was divided up between staff pay and operating
expenses.  

Pay was 40% of gross income.  Each post had a certain 
number of pay units assigned to it, usually 80 for low 
level posts, 100 for auditors or department managers,
and 120 or even 140 for top execs.  The total units were
calculated and divded into the total salary fund for the
week (40% of GI) to yield a value for that weeks unit.

In bad times the unit might be as bad as 5 cents but
usually it would be around 15 to 25, and in a boom period 
it might go as high as 50 cents.  A 50 cent unit gives
an average pay of 50 bucks a week.  This was at a
time when an ordinary bookkeeping job paid about 125
a week.  So this was low pay, but proportionately
much better than modern staff pay.

Nowardays, a central org (which I believe are still run
on a modern version of this system) has many more deductions
before the remaining GI is divided up, and then part of
the staff pay goes to paying for training courses and
whatever at Flag for top execs and so forth, and finally
the remainder is used to establish the unit, which is
generally very low.

In the old days, we were only allowed to count money in
the GI when a service was started, so that advanced
payments and so forth went into a holding account (and
were available for refund of advanced payments) and
so the org had to really deliver courses and so forth
to earn money.

Now they count advanced payments as income immediately
and the whole staff can starve if a big advance is
transfered or refunded (if money moves from an org
service to the bookstore, lets say for 10 grand worth
of tapes, the org must put actual cash into the HCO
book account even though they have spent the advanced
payment long since).

Note that the bookstore money was kept separate from
the org money and it had to be totally cycled back and
used to stock more books and was a no profit item as
far as the org was concerned but there were dire penalties
for not pushing the bookstore operation to the hilt.

The current handling of advanced payments means that
the org lives on advanced sales rather than delivery,
and actually having to deliver a big load of services
later (when the money has already been spent) means
that they have no cash for investing in the facilities
needed for delivery if booms in people starting services
happen in different weeks than the booms in selling
services.

So there is some tendency to push selling services and
a bit of reluctance to actually have to deliver them
in some cases.

Another thing that changed is that in the 1960s, the
registrars did not receive sales comissions.  Now they
do, so again there is a drain on the staff pay fund
before it is divided up.  And registrars end up being
the only well paid staff members.  And again the
emphasis is all on sales rather than delivery.

The FSMs however, have gotten sales commissions since
the creation of the FSM system back in 1965.

And of course in modern times the SO sends in missions
at the drop of a hat and charges the orgs and missions
for these.

Note that there is no connection between the two different
uses of "mission", one being an SO task force and the
other being the modern name for a franchise operation.

In any detailed analysis of an organization, you have
to be careful of the different types because they
operate on completely different financial policies.

In general, "org" always refers to a "Central Organization"
unless otherwise qualified.  These are always non-profit
and run on some break even divy things up kind of system.
These are limited to Class 4 and use mostly non-Sea Org
staff.

If I remember correctly, Toronto was a Class 2 org
initially in 1967 and had to send its staff auditors
etc. to New York for class 3 and 4 level training.
Usually orgs would start this way and then be upgraded
to Class 4 after they had successfully trained students 
up to Class 2 for awhile.  But they would be auditing
PCs to grade 4 from the begining which is why they
would need to get staff trained to 4 immediately.

The franchises (old) / missions (new) are operated for
profit by their owners, but are subject to much pillaging
by SO missions (task forces) that can come in when they
want and bill what they feel like for messing up the
franchise.  They are very restricted in what services
are allowed, mostly auditing PCs to Grade 4 but not
allowed to train the auditors that do the auditing.

The SO and other high level organizations (Gold etc.),
and World Wide and St Hill in the old days (before the
SO) have their own finance systems mostly established
by Flag Orders rather than HCO Policy.

And of course there are all these little sideways things
like the HCO Book account and IAS fees (formerly HASI)
and hounding for contributions to CCHR and so forth.

You probably didn't need all this, but I thought that
I should write all this financial stuff up in one place.

Yes, exactly.  Unfortunately this is not clearly stated in the
modern Scientology references.  It is on the tapes of 1952 and
1953, but it is not in a nice neat little package that is easy
to give as a tech reference.  So the style of running it has 
gradually deteriorated over the years within the CofS because
the auditors do not have a good understanding of what they are
doing with this process.

You have both my congradulations and my appologies for not
providing for this.

In the old days we would have said that you had "gone up
the pole" and then promptly fallen off.  It is based on a
story of Ron's where he describes worms crawling around on
a flatland and then one suddenly goes up a pole and is
exterior to the flatland and can really look around for
the first time, but then he falls off and ends back up
in the flatland again.

What has happened is that one has exteriorized in some
manner.  One has stepped outside of either the body or
the game or the bank or the universe or whatever.

Then one interiorizes and that is the "falling off the 
pole".  One goes back into whatever one had exteriorized
from.

The processes to protect against this falling off of
the pole are later in the book.  The most important one
is the first process of chapter 11.  

I had not imagined that it would happen earlier in the 
book, but I should have known better.  My only excuse is 
that I was so busy making sure that the book would be safe 
for those who ran it in a careless and sloppy manner that 
I didn't worry sufficiently about people who would use it 
in a superlative manner.  Instead I assumed that they would 
be people who already had extensive auditor training and
who would already have much other knowledge to carry
them through situations such as this.

If this had occured when you were further along, you
would not have fallen off so easily.

The book should have an additional paragraph added
to the introduction, advising that if one experiences
some wonderous state early in the book, one should
immediately go to chapter 11, read the introduction,
and run the first process.

In your case we may need a bit more because you have
already fallen off and gotten into a bit of difficulty.

There are actually a number of factors at work here.
Since there are a number of processing steps, I
will put letter them A, B, etc. to aid in keeping
track.  You should probably read through this before
begining the steps.

A) The first thing to handle is the exteriorization / 
interiorization phenomena.  This is explained and 
addressed in chapter 11 and that should be your first 
step.  Just read the introduction and do process 11-1 
rather than the entire chapter.  You should be capable 
of running this one in a thorough manner.

But the particular exteriorization you describe is
more of an "exterior to the game" type state which
is really a bit higher.

Process 11-1 should still handle most of the effects,
but let us try to ensure a bit more stability with
another process as follows:

This is an advanced processes and should be done 
very lightly to a win rather than trying
to push too hard with them.  These can be run again
in a more thorough manner when you come to them
in the correct sequence.  

B) Read the introduction to chapter 41 ("Bodies") and 
do the first process (41-1).  Don't do the rest of the
chapter at this time, but just the first process.

These first steps should cool down the difficulty
and reason for having interiorized.

Once this has been accomplished, it is no longer
unpleasant as one slides in or out of the body
or the game and one is not likely to trigger old 
charge by the simple fact of sliding out.

C) Another thing that often happens if one jumps
to a high state very quickly is that one looses
so much "mass" that one's "havingness" (what one
feels that one has or can have) sometimes drops
too much.

The processes of chapter 1 do raise "havingness",
but the processes of chapter 2 are much stronger
"havingness" processes.  So do process 2-1 on
various things, and even in different rooms or
locations if necessary, until you have a really
good feeling of being able to reach things and
have them.  But note that the material in the
introduction to chapter 2 is to be used in the
next step, so run process 2-1 first.

D) The introduction to chapter 2 explains about
overrun and how to rehabilitate or "rehab" a
process which has been overrun.  Read and understand
the theory, but do not actually do the practice
step of overruning a process because we already
have something that we need to rehab.  

Now spot the moment of achiving that "childlike
state" on process 1-1 and rehabilitate it.  If
necessary spot the exact date, time, and location
and get back the exact feeling.  Note that these
rehabs are extremely easy to do if you do it right
away, but when more time has passed you need to
work a bit more at spotting the precise time,
place, and what happened.

If there is a drop in "havingness" as the state
comes back, run a bit more of 2-1.

Now as to the exact thought which restimulated,
the one begining with "There's no sense to live 
happy ...", with more experience you would have
been suspicious of such a thing as being an
old trap, which is what it is.

It is almost tone 40, with just a slight twist
that is meant to crash one out of tone 40.  And
so it doesn't feel "restimulative" because it
is far above 4.0, but it is a crash none the less.

In practice, whenever one is shown that there is a 
value to abberation, one is being tricked into 
abberating oneself.

The absence of other determined importances gives
one the freedom to assign or change importances
at will, and that makes one a player of the game
instead of a pawn in other's games.

And so the trick is to set it up so that if somebody
hits this state, they will immediately dive back
into the trap and obey the importances assigned 
by others before they discover that they can
assign their own ones willfully.

If you had done more chapters, you would already
have done many drills on assigning meanings or
importances or creating or projecting things and
you would simply have ignored this old trap.

Even after it is rehabbed, the state may not be
really stable but only a pleasantry that occurs
occasionally.  For stability in the advanced
states, you need a broader base to stand on and
to handle the things which call you back into 
the human condition and that means working through
the book chapter by chapter.

But once an advanced state has been reached, the
processing goes very fast.  You will find that
some sections seem unnecessary and others fall
away very quickly and it is only occasionally
that you hit an area that needs considerable
work.

Welcome to the road to OT.

You're right, it is eval.  Best if the person pokes into this
after they have run into such things themselves.  So one should
know in general that there is material on this and where to find
it when one needs to but not to make a big deal out of it or
be thrown into it or blame one's case on it.  It is a lesser
factor and certainly not the big WHY on either one's case or
on developing OT abilities.

The self clearing book is full of OT drills.  It is a balanced
mixture of the drills and of case handling and I think that
this is the best approach.  And many old style processes are
a little bit of both.

Chapter 7 of Super Scio is specifically dedicated to OT
drills and has a great number of them.

I have occasionally posted others to ACT.  Check the pilot
archives at FZA for ones which have Super Scio Tech in the
title.  Some of these are OT drills.

And of course there is also Route 1 (CofHA), SOP 8C (near
the back of 8-8008) and old OT 5/6.  Many of these drills
are also in Self Clearing and/or Super Scio.

Before doing any extensive amount of OT drills, run the first
process in the chapter on Exteriorization (chapter 11) of
the self clearing book so that you don't get into trouble
with the ext/int phenomena.  Also become adapt at the first
few processes in Self Clearing chapter 1 and 2 because they
raise havingness.  Sometimes exteriorizing or achiving a
keyed out OT state will drop havingness because of loosing
the mass of the bank or whatever and you may need to run
something to raise havingness to stabalize the state.

I didn't emphasize this in self clearing because objective
havingness processes are also interwoven throughout the
book, but if you just do OT drills you need to know about
raising havingness if it drops suddenly.  

You might also want to pick up the Philadelphia Doctorate
Course transcripts which are currently up at a website.

You are mostly correct.  I believe the other idea (the danger
of seeing it) to be a cop out.

But there are some other aspects to this.

If you violate physical laws in front of someone who is against
such a thing (many people are in compulsive agreement), then you
are enforcing a reality and are also asking for them to consciously
or unconsciously counter-postulate against you.

Doing this in front of a crowd who don't believe such things
can be done and object to the idea of it being done may not
be possible even for a strong OT until the group agreements
have changed.

But one could still succeed if one were smart and subtle.

The best example is Jesus.  The feeding of the multitude is
done in such a skillful manner so as to sidestep this problem
that it makes the story seem very likely to me and shows us
the right way to handle such things.

He does not wave his arms and make tables piled with food appear.
That would probably get instant counter postulates in large
quantites even if many wanted to believe.

Instead he hands around a basket which is known to contain
food.  Each person reaching in can justify to himself that
there still should be some left and really wants his share
so he postulates in agreement with Jesus.  Nobody else is
having their nose rubbed in the violation of reality and
they are each hopeing that the food will last a little bit
longer.  And Jesus talks to distract the crowd.  And everyone
eats from the single basket.

In retrospect a vast violation of physical universe laws has
occured, but there is no one point at which the whole crowd
focuses against it.

Note that when Jesus walks on water, only his desciples who
believe in him are present.  It is doubtful if he could have
done it infront of a crowd.  The water into wine is again
a subtle trick and it would not surprise me if he made a
point of asking some of the guests who did not know of the
water to come over and taste the wine first before those who
knew were allowed to try it.  And healing is the sort of
thing where many would scratch their heads and wonder if
anything had really been done.

There is some possibility that he might have thought that
he could float down from the cross and found himself pinned
by the great visibility and the massed agreement of other
prisoners and Roman guards.  I'm only speculating here, but
it would be another explanation for the "Why has't thou
forsaken me".  Once emtombed and out of sight, he manages
to come back, but note that again he is carefull about who
he appears to, mainly visiting the desciples.

My own experiences were that things could be done in front
of witnesses and the witnesses generally loved it rather
than being harmed, but of course I was either around 
Scientologists or my metaphysically oriented family rather
than people who would find their realities shaken.

Thank you, I enjoy the validation.

The new website looks really great.  I'll repeat the URL for
anyone who missed it - http://members.xoom.com/Sarah_Hefver

And we seem to have other blossoming new sites too.  Although
www.theauditor.net doesn't have a lot of stuff yet, it has
promise.

And there is a wonderful Reform Now version of the Scientology
Spam package up at http://members.aol.com/hunnicut.

And the critics have been nice enough to put up the PDC and
even the NOTs have shown up again.

I wanted to suggest that you really load up the meta tag
for the search engines and also to suggest that everybody
make a point of getting freezone and reform URLs registered
with the various search engines so that fence sitting 
Scientologists will find these things.

Also don't shy away from carrying important things that
Homer also has in his archives, and put things of your own
into his archives as well as up at your website so that
there is backup and less likelyhood of attack.

A subject with multiple source points and distribution
points were there is no single command point or single
point of failure cannot be knocked out by a single blow
no matter how powerful or well plannded that blow is.
Therefore, that reduces the likelyhood that anybody will
ever bother to lauch an attack.

And very well done on the jokes.

As explained in the appendix, the flows used varied depending
on the process, as was the style in the early days.  More or
less flows were used as seemed reasonable for the exact command
being run.

The idea of precisely having to do all flows always is something
that developed during the quicky era.  If you are only going
to run one process for a grade, it really will bypass charge
if you skip a flow because nothing else is to be done in the
area.  It doesn't seem to matter that much once you use many
processes per grade.

And there was often trouble putting quads in after triples
had been done on an expanded grade.  It has to be done lightly,
often skipping the process.  I believe that this was because
they were pedantically trying to make everything into 4 flows.

There are many more than 4 flows possible, especially depending
on the process.  Some of the old processes have 15 or 25 flows
(called brackets in the old days).

So multiple flows were worked in as needed so as to make the
most sense and make the processing easiest without omitting
anything.  So some processes do have 4 flows and some have
less and some even have more.  And some of the ones with 2
or 3 flows have flow 0 instead of flow 1 as the first command.

Also, many of the single flow processes are inherently flow
zero rather than flow one, so the book actually has more
flow zero than anything else.  This is after all the basic,
that the person is source for his own condition.

SHSBC-319 (renum 350) 6310C30 R4 Case Assembly
SHSBC-320 (renum 351) 6310C31 R4M2

Yes, these tapes (and all R3M/R4M and 1963 implant materials) were
considered confidential and unavailable throughout the 1970s and 80s.

But Ron had supposedly thrown a fit when he found out that the first 
set of tech volumes had come out with the 1963 materials omitted.
Apparantly one of his last orders before disappearing was to
get these things back on the briefing course.

So in 1978 they put the tapes back on the checksheet.  The
students found it a bit confusing because they were allowed to
hear the tapes but couldn't read the bulletins that went with
them.

But you still couldn't buy the tapes or get to hear them except
on the BC checksheet, the org was doing everything it could to
keep these things out of circulation.

Finally in 1991 the New Tech Volumes came out and the SHSBC 
Cassettes were released and these materials are included.

They are in Level J of the SHSBC Cassettes along with transcripts.

Unfortunately, they cost a fortune and you can't buy individual
ones (the usual 4X overpricing).

And they wouldn't sell to anyone who is not in good standing
(the usual religious persecution that they practice).

And in theory they also wouldn't even sell them to their own 
people unless they have started the briefing course, but I
suspect that they bend this one occasionally when money is
waved in their faces.

This is an excellent point.

For engrams, the real key is to get one's confront up on
incidents by running them on a gradient until one achieves
full confront of the pain and force in engrams.  That is
what brings about the Dianetic Clear state where the engrams
fall away because the person no longer flinches at the pain
and force contained in mental pictures.

On that basis, gradient confront is much more important than
finding some specific engram which explains some condition.

And of course the same would be true for GPMs.  This puts
a whole new slant on it.

The importance would not be in finding items but in raising
one's confront of items until the entirety of items falls
away.

This happened for me on implant items at some point while I
was researching the pile of platens that is in Super Scio
chapter 8.  At some point, all implanted items seemed to
loose their force and it really didn't matter if I'd found
them or not or if they were right or not.

I would therefore hypothesize that the same can be done for
the much more powerful goals and items of actual GPMs.

The SOP 8C rundown of 1953 (the OT rundown, not the opening
procedure) included "find some goals you don't have" in its 
first level and this may have acted as a key-out on the
entire GPM bank in some cases.

There is much to be looked into here.

This is an order of magnitude beyond the engramic confront
achieved by a Dianetic Clear or the errasure of one basic
platen achieved by a Clearing Course clear.

I assume that you mean 1964.

Note that although the 1963 materials were declassified, the
1964 materials (R6) remain confidential.

I agree with Lakis.

The CofS will not sell to anyone who is not in good standing.

Even if you are in good standing, they are not supposed to sell
you the SHSBC tapes unless you are on or have done the SHSBC
(they often violate this in practice).

Almost all of the tapes have been transcribed long since.  Much
of the work was actually done by public volenteers for Gold rather
than even being done by SO slave labor.  Many public volenteer
just to get to hear the tapes while helping at the same time.

They have also run everything onto top of the line CDs for
storage in the vaults.

They have been taking decades to get only a small portion of
the R&D volumes done.  As they become available, and as long
as they will continue to sell to me, I will buy these, and
actually the most recent one (R&D 13) is a transcript of the
first third of the PDC which I already have a set of transcripts
for (from the tapes) and which can also be picked up on the
net for free and I still bought their volume anyway because
it is a nice printing job and I like to encourage their efforts
and it is a bit better done than the earlier transcripts.

Loyalists will buy from them anyway, so internet distribution
shouldn't hurt their sales, and the spread of the tech via
the freezone would actually increase their sales if they 
stopped their hypocritical religious persecution.

I honestly believe that someday when I feel it is right to
get a hardcover publisher for the self clearing book, the
book will actually sell better rather than worse by benifit
of having a free copy available on the net.  Look how many
people print it off which takes time and paper costs and
wear and tear on their laser printers.  It is easier to buy
a hardcopy.

So I don't think that it will hurt their sales.  And it would 
really help the freezone a lot.  And it would help orthodox 
Scientology a lot too if only they would wake up and stop 
acting suppressive to the spread of the tech.

And I know that Gold was offered outside bids many years
ago that would have enabled tape pricing of about $5 per
cassette instead of $20 (manufacturing bids of under a
buck with high quality packaging and so forth), but they
did not want to loose control or make it too easy for the
tech to get into the hands of the squirrels and so forth.

Although they do have these nice tape sets now, most public
and staff cannot affort to buy them, and only a small 
percentage of tapes have been released, and almost nobody
has really heard any great deal except for a few tech
fanatics such as myself.

I've been in the tape library at Flag and it was a joke.

And there's a lot of stuff that I'd like to get myself
which is totally unavailable and at their current rate, 
it will take about 20 or 30 years before they finish 
doing all of the R&Ds even though most of the transciptions
have already been done.

If SO and public had been listening to 1950s tapes extensively
during the last 2 decades, I think that most of them would
already be reformers and the organization would have
straightened out long since.

And at this stage, I am also worried that they are going
to collapse in some bad fashion and may drag the copyrights
into the grave with them.  So there is a need for all
the tech to get out there in computer readable form and
hopefully for the work to become public domain because
of the Religious Freedom issue.

Most people who have worked hard to transcribe and spread
the tech have done so with the postulate to spread the
tech around the planet rather than the postulate to
make money for the CofS.  Hell, I remember a time when
I was typing mimeo stencils to get some bulletins out
and I was doing it to get the tech distributed.  I was
getting paid about 5 cents an hours for that work and
I didn't mind because I believed in the tech.  But I
certainly didn't care whether or not the public got it
for free.  Considering what I was being paid to reproduce
the stuff, I was mostly of the attitude that people 
should just get it.  Whatever money came in was simply
to finance printing more tech.

I don't mind the org making some money from this stuff,
but they should be getting it out there in high volume
and making the money on quantity instead of selling
a small number of copies to a rich elete.

They have already handled the setup costs of doing the
tech volumes.  Now its just reproduction.  They could
just put it out cheeply in softcover, maybe a fifty or
a hundred bucks for the entire set, and make it available
for purchase to the general public.  Or they could just
run the entire thing onto a single CD Rom and charge
25 bucks for it.  Its already scanned in and available
to Flag C/Ses via a search engine, but they wouldn't
let ordinary auditors have access to it.

They could easily do all the tapes with transcripts
in MPEG 3 and probably fit all 3500 hours onto about
50 CDs or so.  Since they've already covered most
of the setup costs and have these on CD for the vaults,
they could be nice and do this at about 25 bucks per
CD and sell them like hotcakes and make a fortune
in the process (reproduction cost is probably only
about 2 bucks per CD).

There are some very dedicated and well intentioned
beings at Gold and Bridge, and they are the reason
that there is still tech coming from there, but the
SPs in top management have done their best to hold
these people back and make the tech as inaccessible
as possible.

Meanwhile maybe somebody will bypass them for the
sake of supporting Religious Freedom and practicing
their religion.  The idea of putting out all the
BC tapes on 10 CDs sounds really neat.  If they
haven't already been scanned in, the setup costs
(especially transcriptions) might make the price
a bit higher than 25 bucks each initially but it 
would still be a bargin.

Sorry I've gotten carried away here, but you hit one
of my buttons.

 subj : Super Scio Tech - Improved Black And White


IMPROVED BLACK AND WHITE


This is a nice variation that was figured out by an old time
Class 8 who passed it on to me.

According to the PDC lectures, you can turn off a somatic
by turning the area white.

I have had success with this on rare occasions, but usually
you can't get into the area or get it to turn white properly.
Putting in a true flow of white energy feels significantly
different than simply imagining the area white.  It has a
warm and comfortable feeling to it and that is what really
aids healing.

The improvement consists of mocking up the body in front of
you and then flowing white into the area and flowing black
out of the area alternately until you have control over 
the area.  Then reach into the real body and turn the area
white.

This does seem to work to let you successfully reach into
the area and turn it white.

I played with this a bit and also bounced it off of another
friend (a Class 6 this time).  He wanted to try it as an
assist.  After a short while doing it on the mock up, he
said it felt like the right point to shift over to the real
body, but he wanted to continue doing the inflow and outflow.

So I went along with this and he observed that it turned
on a bit of a somatic to put black into the body and outflow
it.  So I varied the command to "now let any blackness that
is there flow out and disperse into space".  This worked
really well, in fact spectacularly.

Pushing in white energy brings black energy into view,
and then you outflow it (without putting any black energy
in) and then you push in more white etc. until the black
stops appearing.  Then you can really get white energy
into the area that really feels like warm energy and that
seems to have a strong healing effect.

My friend felt that we had finally mastered the Chi force
(life energy, I'm not sure about the spelling) that is
talked about in some eastern practices.

So the full drill is:

1. mockup a copy of your body infront of you (with its
back to you seems best).

2. Push white energy into the center of the area that
needs to be handled, and have the energy spread out to
encompass the full area, and along nerve channels as
well if it seems to indicate (on a gradient if necessary,
doing more on subsequent commands), alternated with
flowing black out of the area (its ok to put black there
to outflow while running on the mockup).

Continue step 2 until your attention is drawn to the
real body or you suddenly feel you are doing it on the
real body or any win that leaves you feeling like it 
is time to handle the real body.

3. Push white energy (as above) into the real body,
alternated with having any black energy that is there
or appears there flow out and disperse into space
(but don't put any black energy into the body).

4. Once no more black is appearing, push in some more
white energy and leave it there with the postulate
for the body to heal.

This seems like a powerful healing process.

Then it occured to me that it could be done on an area
or a group.  So I drilled with a mockup of the LA complex
for a bit and then got the idea that I was looking down
at the real thing and filling it with white and letting
any blackness flow off.  That was really interesting and
felt very good indeed.  There were waves of blackness
coming out of the ASHO basement, but the AO seemed almost
clean.  When I tried this on Helmet I honestly expected
that Gold would be an isolated bright spot, but everything 
there was like the bottom of the La Brea tarpits.

On this one I honestly can't say whether or not I was
just running my own charge or whether the insanity there
has maybe gone down by a notch, but it was fun and felt
good.

 subj : Super Scio Tech - REALITY GENERATOR (Attn Homer)


REALITY GENERATOR (Attn Homer)

This is in 3 sections.  First I felt I needed to comment
on Homer's session.  And then I included Homer's post.
The third section discusses what I got into when
I followed up on something Homer spotted in his
session.

--------------

Recently Homer got a phone session from Robert and there
were mixed results and there has been endless discussion
of this on ACT.

As I see it, the basic bug was simply that Robert was
running somebody above his own case level.  Since it was
well intentioned and there were results despite the
flubs, I'm going to thank him for trying and not make
a big deal out of it.

Now somebody will probably say that Homer ain't up at
some high case level, but I'll disagree.

A caved in grade 4 is at a higher case level than a
super keyed out grade 0.  He don't look good and he
ain't happy, but you have to handle him as a grade 4,
not as a grade 0.

And somebody who trains to class 4 and fools around
with the processes and never got audited by anyone
else and doesn't have any of those grades FNing is
still a grade 4 pc and a lower classed auditor is gonna
be in trouble.  The auditor just can't duplicate the
pc.

Now just look at some of the tech material Homer has
written.  It might not all be right and he might
complain a lot, but this is NOT a low level case.

We don't even have level numbers for the kind of
suff we're dealing with here.

In cases like this the pc does know better than the
auditor but the auditor can't take the pcs orders
and the session goes to hell whatever you do.
(actually you can take the pcs orders without losing
control of the session but it takes a skilled hand
and you still have to be at a comparable level of
understanding).

I've been through this myself at Flag, it just
drives you up the walls.

And let me say that the suggestion to do a pile
of repair lists can work if the auditor is really
good and simply handles whatever reads without
ANY PREJUDICE about what's what.

I had that at Flag too while they were messing
me up and it always worked if the auditor was
good (usually they were).  They would have a
green form item reading, for example, and I
would say something that might have later ended
up in the Super Scio book, and the auditor would
be totally over his head but he would keep his
TRs in and do a standard handling and the charge
would come off.

I always ended those reviews with a floating
TA and persistant FN (with one exception), and
had lots of cogs and felt really really good.

And then they would try to run a new process
on me and everything would go to hell and I
would need another repair.  I was orders of
magnitude beyond what the auditor or C/S could
duplicate.

But the repairs still worked, so that is always
a way to get the PC back to FNing even if you
are not up to duplicating where he is at.

Of course there are other ways to get a pc
flying, but doing it by 2 way comm would require
being at least up to the pc's level.

For someone who can solo well and is trained enough
to spot when a process indicates, it could be done
with the self clearing book on the principle that
accumulating enough wins in enough different areas
(going for whichever ones are accessible on the
surface) will get the case flying.

In that case, one would read the intro to each
chapter and look at the first process and if
it indicated, then run it to a win.  One would
stick with a chapter, running each process to a
win as long as they continued to indicate, and
one would drop it and jump to the next chapter
as soon as a process didn't indicate.

If a new person did this he probably wouldn't
build up his skill level enough, but an old hand
wouldn't have any trouble.

This would have to be unmetered so that one is
not sitting there fighting with a high TA or
figure figuring on what is or isn't reading.
You just accumulate wins on whatever is accessible
until a big keyout happens.

Once a pc is flying, it is a flunk to end off without
an FN, but if he isn't yet, then trying to get one
leads to invalidating the mild wins and it is the
accumulation of these (without inval) that will
get the pc flying.

You can either repair or accumulate wins.  If 
accumulating wins didn't work, you'd never get a
single pc flying because everyone has endless unflat
processes and out lists from life and former
therapies when they first walk in the door.  The
ones who come in with an FN in their first session
have simply had enough wins recently to key out
the endless lifetimes of case outnesses.

When I read that dicom of "Magnificence and Anti Magnificence",
it just about jumped up and slapped me in the face.  I got
a visio of what seemed like a pair of sort of jeweled rectangles 
or tombstones in 4 or more dimensions that radiated through
layered three dimensional spaces.

So I decided to handle it for myself.

Now let me be careful here about not evaluating or insisting
that I ran into the same thing that Homer ran into.  I will
simply describe the processes that I devised as I went along
and what happened, and maybe it will indicate or maybe it will
not or maybe it will be close and he can work this around into
something he can run to take some weight off of this.

The Magnificence and Anti-Magnificence were in opposition
like GPMs, but they did not feel like goals or items,
so I didn't want to call them that.

I decided that they seemed most like Asthetic Masses that
were in a sort of opposition and generated some sort of
flux between them that generated reality.  Eventually
I started calling this thing a Reality Generator.

I decided that the best thing to do was to get control
over the thing and become senior to it, because it seemed
like it would go much earlier on the track than just about
anything that I had any structure or pattern for.  This is
slower and more difficult than handling something that you
already have the anatomy of, but it is the only way when
you don't know what the damn thing is.

Here is the beauty of simple concept running and things
like that.  These are the kinds of processes that 
address the core case, not the heavy processes that
deal with force or GPMs or whatever, because the early
track is abberations of thought only and it is impossible
to create an impact on a being.

So my first try was to "get the idea of being more
magnificent" alternated with "get the idea of being
less magnificent", with the idea of simply loosening
up the absoluteness of the item.

And that did give a little bit of a good feeling and
so I took the win and shifted over to "get the idea
of being a little more anti-magnificent" and "get
the idea of being a little less anti-magnificent".

The idea of being "anti-magnificent" was a little
difficult at first, but the concept seemed to want
to run, so I did it.  And then I got a really good
feeling, like being the "unmaker of the game" or
a fun sort of "lucifer" busily unmocking everything
and some real charge came off.

Since these masses had appeared with visio off in
a sort of 4th dimensional direction sideways of
reality, I decided that I should work with them
directly, in a similar manner to the above.

So I got the idea of mocking up these two masses
and alternately have them generate more and less
of either magnificence or anti-magnificence.  My
feeling was that there were rays coming out of these
things that put magnificence into things or stomped
out the magnificence that was in things.  I made
one radiate more and less (alternately) a few times
and then do the other, and worked back and forth
on these for a bit.

Note that this kind of processing puts the PC at
cause rather than leaving him at effect of the
masses discovered.

That really loosened something up and suddenly I
realized that I was creating both of these and
making them both radiate against each other
simultaneously.  And I was doing that on a 
compulsive unconcious continuous create level
and I was being both at once.

And with that I could see these things stretching
way back down the track, before the GPMs and
before what I think of as codes and game spheres
and penalty universes and everything else all
the way back to the reality wars.

And then I realized that these things were a
weapon that had been used against me and I'm
still partially unconcious as a super being
from the "impact" (not an impact of force, but
an impact of ideas and asthetics and potential
games).

But at that time one could not be affected by
anything that one didn't choose to mock up.
So the only possible weapons were dependent
on things that they could entice you to copy
and mock up.

So this was something that was facinating in
its asthetics and interest and potential for
game, and so one wanted to be hit with the
weapon.  This is like knowing that a beautiful
girl is an assassin sent by the enemy but she
is such a great lay that you play along planning
to sidestep the assassination at the last minute,
but sometimes you get wacked instead.

At this point I felt really good but I wanted
to get more off of this thing because I could
still see it all around me.

I thought of finding a datum of comparable
magnitude, another similar thing, but it seemed
hard, like this thing permeated everything.

So I decided to look around and spot something
that was not magnificent.  But then I realized
that that was simply the concurrently created
opposing item, so I changed that to finding
something where these two items were not.

And I must have looked around for five or ten
minutes seeing this pair in everything, either
there was some aspect of magnificence in an
object or there was an anti-magnificence, but
I kept looking around and finally I noticed
the chair I was sitting it.

It was a comfortable chair, but neither magnificent
nor anit-magnificent but simply comfortable.

And with that I felt these "threads" let go that
streatched back down the track to the start of
this thing.

And this flux between magnificence and 
anti-magnificence that had streatched down through
time seem to have dissolved and was not longer
present.  The generator was still sort of there,
but it had faded into recession.  And I felt like
I could put magnificence into something if I felt
like it, but it was not occuring compulsively.

Now I was feeling really good, but it did seem
like there had been a bit too much of a drop
in havingness as this flux fell away.

The usual sort of havingness processes didn't
seem to indicate in this case.  Whatever had
blown was perhaps a bit too close to the actual
mechanism of generating reality.  Maybe that's
why Homer doesn't like havingness processes.

But there are other kinds of havingness processes,
and the kind where you contribute to the creation 
did seem to indicate.  So I decided to mockup
beauty in the objects around me, and that did
work very well and restored havingness.

It then occured to me that I had just slid into
another pair of reality generating masses.  Beauty 
and anti-beauty.  Note that it was not beauty/ugly,
but an anti-beauty where one unmocked beauty.
The concurrent mockup and unmock from two terminals
done simultaneously generated a flux that again
was the source of another of the threads woven
through all of reality.

With that I could see that there were dozens of
these things and that they were a significant
component in the continuous creation of reality.
So I finally had gotten a datum of comparable 
magnitude and it was easy at this point instead
of seeming impossibly hard.

That was a big enough win to put the whole thing
aside and leave it for another day.

I would now hypothesise that any of the supposed
"light" processes which actually work to destimulate
heavy incidents are actualy the processes which
come closest to handling "core case".  That is
why these supposedly light processes can actually
do anything in the presence of heavy restim.

In recalling pleasure moments, for example, one
is comeing close to the reason why one is compulsively
generating reality in the first place.  Getting
hit by an engram can't even happen until the
reality is rock solid.

I feel that this was another big step on the
road out.  I hope that others can get something
out of this, especially Homer who helped immensly
by posting this item.

 subj : Super Scio Tech - Answering John Mack On OT 3


ANSWERING JOHN MACK ON OT 3

There are earlier similar mass implants.  According to the
Hubbard College Lectures of 1952, there are at least 5 of
them and it is only the most recent one which happened on
Earth.

But Incident 2 would give the person the wrong date and
location while at the same time restimulating slightly 
different but similar incidents.

And even for people who did have Inc 2, it is late on a
chain and would often be the wrong incident.

This is real trouble only for the first few years that OT 3
was delivered because eventually they added the "cumulative
cluster" bulletin and you were allowed to assess for and
run whatever kind of incident needed to be handled (one
assess things like implant, impact, electrical, and so 
forth and date/locates it).

Once that change was made, they continued to push Incident 2
but you had an alternative if it really didn't seem right.

And there still remained the other problem of blaming one's
case on entities which is a good way to spin somebody in.
That is even mentioned in History of Man.

Exactly correct, except that this applies to everyone, not
just the ones who did or didn't have Inc 2 on their track.

As I mentioned above, the restim and wrong indication of
running Inc 2 exclusively was at its worst for the first
few years which was exactly the time when the Sea Org was
formed and recruiting heavily.

Furthermore, they were mostly forbidden to recruit org and
mission staff during the first year or two because of orders
not to unmock the existing orgs (this had changed by 1970).
So a large percentage were untrained new people, especially
ones who had gotten through OT 3 in the quicky era.

In early 1968 it was possible to reach grade 5A on
25 to 50 hours of auditing at a total cost of 1 or 2
thousand dollars.  In 1969 one could do it in 5 or 10
hours of auditing.  A further few months and a few thousand
dollars at St. Hill or (1969) AOLA and one could be on
OT 3 with little preparation and little confront and much
encouragement to blame one's remaining case on BTs.

For an example of the typical bridge in early 1969, when
the original standard tech and quickes were at their
peak, see Bob Kaufman's book (which is up at a few web
sites).  People who got audited after 1970 probably
don't believe it, but he had a totally standard bridge
for 1969 and just about every process that was run
on him is listed in that book.  It is a pitiful handful.
And yet he did make gains on lower level processes and
says so.  It was only getting tosses onto Clear and OT 3
that spun him in.  The only inaccuracy in his book is that
he used fake names for all the people involved, possibly 
to protect them.

This was the experience of new public who came in 
during that era.  Those who trained or those who
came in a little earlier or later fared better.  But
his was not an unusual experience.  The only difference
is that he decided that Ron was nuts and most people 
decided the opposite and became Sea Org fanatics.  The 
level of charge and dub-in by the time they did OT 3 was
probably about the same.

I'm not talking here about the old timers or existing
trained auditors.  Most of them did not join the SO except
for the very first wave that signed up when Ron created
the SO.  Most could not join during that first year 
because of the policy I mentioned above, and by the second
year, most of the old timers were very leary of getting
sucked into that mess.  I would have joined in early 1968
if I had been allowed to leave org staff to do so, and
I most certainly would not in 1969.  By the time it was
possible for me to join, I was totally recruiter resistant.

So about three quarters of the 1968-9 Sea Org recruits
were untrained newbies who had been in the sujbect for
six months or a year and rushed up through OT 3 and got
dazzeled by the Xenu story and signed up for a billion 
years.  There are exceptions, but this is the most common
story.

In those days, I would often hear a new SO member who
was on a recruiting mission say things like "When I
did OT 3 and saw what had happened to us, I realized 
that the only thing I could do was to dedicate my life to
salvaging this sector".

 
> Or am I missing something?
> 
> John


As I see it, many of the early SO recruits had the incident
in full restim and were dramatizing implanting others.
