SCIENTOLOGY, CURRENT STATE OF THE

SUBJECT AND MATERIALS

There is a possibility that some Scientologists have not realized the extent of

technical materials which exist in Dianetics and Scientology on the subject of the spirit,

mind and life.

For instance, there are about 25,000,000 words on tape in archives which provide

the consecutive path of discovery.

When placed chronologically with books, HCOBs, HCO PLs and other issues this

gives a nearly complete record of all discoveries and applications in these subjects.

The total numbers of words or even the number of tapes and issues to date have not

been reliably calculated.

From time to time various efforts have been made to transcribe and issue all the

materials. The task should be done, especially before the decay of magnetic tape, some of

which was of poor quality, eradicates the material. But proper and safe equipment and

trustworthy technicians who would not turn out an overt product have been lacking. A

project of assembly in the 1960s was balked by inadequate record pressing material

available in the society around us. A more strenuous and reliable effort should be made

to place these archives into a more durable form than magnetic tape.

More or less complete sets of all materials exist in many places on the planet to

safeguard against destruction.

It is from this tremendous archives that study packs and other materials are made

up. These and their checksheets are very numerous and available.

A chronological study of materials is necessary for the complete training of a truly

top grade expert in these lines. He can see how the subject progressed and so is able to see

which are the highest levels of development. Not the least advantage in this is the defining

of words and terms, for each, when originally used, was defined, in most cases, with

considerable exactitude, and one is not left with any misunderstoods. It is for this reason

that the Saint Hill Briefing Course checksheet should consist only of the chronological

materials, studied in chronological order, excepting only the Study Tapes (Primary

Rundown) which should be done first if not previously done properly.

An enormous amount of this material does exist in issuable form. While not strictly

technical, HCO PLs, almost all of them, now exist in books grouped by subjects and 1

think will soon exist in chronological form also. It is projected that this be done with

HCOBs, but these of course should be only in chronological and complete order and the

points where books and tapes were part of this track should be indicated. Transcriptions

and edited versions of tapes (which do not however rearrange meaning or alter data) exist

for a great many tapes and it is projected that these shall also be the subject of a future

issue. For instance, the “Philadelphia Lectures” have recently been transcribed and could

easily be edited into volumes for issue and should be, due to their popularity.

The subject of Scientology is to some degree developed in reverse order. The task

was to undercut the current level of Man and this was the general target. Therefore one

finds the higher levels publicly spoken of most frequently in the earlier books and tapes

(between ‘51 and ‘55). In seeking full application to others and attainment for them of

their potentials it was necessary to codify the materials and develop processes for them.

201

Any difficulties people were having with going Clear were handled in the mid ‘60s

and OT levels as they exist in Advanced Orgs were completed by ‘68. There are perhaps

15 levels above OT VII fully developed but existing only in unissued note form, pending

more people’s full attainment of OT VI & VII.

In the early ‘70s the bottom was found with the discoveries of exactly what

psychosis was and the development of processes to handle it. This was outside the scope

of organizations at the time and is not in general use; but it did finalize the task of

undercutting low enough to include all spiritual and mental materials, then, within the

subject of Scientology, in a state of applicability.

Many people believe that Scientology materials contain mainly processes. They

think of Scientology as processing. This is a very narrow view. It is understandable

enough as processing is the way out for them. But this neglects the more considerable

materials which deal with basics and fundamentals; processes are only one use of these.

Other people, having gotten their smallest toe damp as an HAS then wander off to

other fields looking for answers, whereas had they taken Dianetics or Scientology Grade

training, to say nothing of the Saint Hill Briefing Course, they would have found more

fundamentals than exist in all other subjects combined, a fact which any advanced student

of Scientology can confirm.

Still others think that the “newest” is of course the most advanced and are looking

for new “processes” to be issued or new materials; whereas the process to resolve their

case was most likely issued in earlier years. An amusing instance of this is one whole

continental area where an exact set of principles was isolated and exact processes released

that handle that exact national type; yet, waiting for something new because they did not

know the old, they were found earlier this year to be ignoring this rundown even on new

preclears and of course were having a hard time of it for those ARE the basic processes

for that continent, for those people DO have that barrier.

For quite a while I have had the “hat of finder of lost tech”. Whole sections of

knowledge drop out of view, whole arrays of processes (and administrative principles) go

out of use and preclears there and the organization of the area sag; but recovery is swift

the moment the “lost” knowledge is pulled out of their own file cabinets and restored .

Further, people in organizations are quite often at high case levels. They have

already experienced the bridging knowledge which connects the subject to the man in the

street. It is not new to THEM. They sometimes err in believing it is not new to the world.

Thus gaps are permitted to exist. The solution is to recover the “lost” tech.

But it is also true that many in organizations work very hard to keep the knowledge

bridge in. And do well in accomplishing it.

Within the same civilization, many other subjects than Scientology exist. Many of

these other subjects are in a very primitive state while pretending a very advanced

position. Psychiatry and Psychology are a pair of these. Their pretenses, inhumanities and

even cruelties muddy up the field of the spirit and mind. Because they produce negative

or even damaging results and because they were “authority” before Scientology began

to guide the field toward saner and more civilized levels, Scientology’s task of handling

the public is made far more difficult than if the public had not been so harmed and made

suspicious of the field of the mind. Yet the most mind-wrenching problems Psychiatry

and Psychology practitioners think they have (they have not confronted the real ones)

give way before the lowest most pedestrian levels of Scientology. There is an amusing

story of a Scientologist who attended a social meeting of Psychiatrists and Psychologists

and listened to them for a while as they moaned about their patients and their own cases

and then, being compassionate, began to explain to them in a sort of technical baby talk

the nature and resolution of these “vast” “unsolvable” “problems”. As he took no

offense at their ignorant arrogance which first greeted him and as he did seem to have a

grasp of their troubles, they kept him up until four AM going over their “problems” in

detail and gave him more and more absorbed attention and began to cognite. They were

very tame and very respectful when he left, certain they had heard the guru of all time:

and this is amusing because he was not a trained auditor in any sense of the word and had

only read a few Scientology books! Yet to them he was their dean as a professional by

comparative and sensible knowledge.

202

Many Scientologists have had similar experiences. In the field of Scientology

Admin tech a staff member who had not had an Org Exec Course but had been hatted in

HCO went home for a vacation. His father who, like some fathers, was certain his son was

stupid, permitted him, with misgivings, to reorganize the administration of his medical

clinic along Scientology lines. The son trained the small staff for only a week, lines began

to whizz, patients began to get handled, records went straight, income rose and the father

became absolutely convinced that his son was the brightest organizational genius in the

country; yet in the org they had considered he had a long way to go to be a good Ethics

Officer! Gives you some comparative idea of where the lowest rudimentary levels of

Scientology sit in relation to current technologies.

Above such small bits of fringe information the bulk of Scientology knowledge

towers into mountains. It is accessible, in the main, to those who seek it. The only barriers

are usually their own lack of command of their own language and the misconceptions of

study ground into them from kindergarten on. Means of solving these are also available

and are daily applied to countless newcomers over the world.

The actual barrier in the society is a failure to practice truth. Living lives of white

lies, they find it difficult to grasp that truth actually exists. This can hang on as a habit

during the first studies of a student and he can defeat himself utterly by continuing a

dishonesty in his study—skipping this, not doing that. For Scientology is the road to truth

and he who would follow it must take true steps.

Some, seeing out of their own ambitious eyes and as jealous of any imagined rival

as any ferocious boy friend, seek to assert that Scientology is interested in healing. This is

something like saying that a Cadillac engineer is interested only in window polish. For

when you begin to handle the causative force in Man he often also gets well. The

“proofs” of supposing Scientology is a healing activity are abundant enough if one sees

the recovery lists in any org. But they were not processed to heal them, only to free them.

A recent example of this occurred when a preclear broke her ankle and was given medical

treatment. Naturally the org was anxious to get on with her program of processing and

the ankle injury was in the way. After weeks in medical hands with the ankle getting

worse, the engram of the injury was run out, the ankle got well and the person was again

being routinely processed a few days later. The auditor could be said to have been

engaged in healing. All he was doing was getting a body difficulty out of his road so he

could get on with it.

Recently, having found bottom on the mind and spirit some years ago, I have been

looking into physical nutrition and biochemistry. These latter levels lie below the spirit

and mind and could be loosely considered to be an undercut as they do impede spiritual

gain.

Many people are mainly fixated on the body and living as they do in an intensely

materialistic society, they are caught between being a body in the work-a-day world and

achieving spiritual freedom. This is of course paradoxical. The game of being a body is

the only game they have in their eyes. Thus if something is wrong with their body they

manifest having heavy problems and they are anxious at the thought of losing a body: in

other words they have a hidden standard of body health as their measure of spiritual

attainment which, though illogical, is where they are and what they are doing.

Scientology has long pursued the firm policy of sending the sick to the medical

doctor. There is no place they can send the insane as to send them to psychiatry would

be to condemn them to horror, and so orgs do not usually handle them at all as they are

not equipt to do so even when technically able.

But the sick have been another matter. The gentlemanly thing to do was to give the

doctor his due and trust that he would respect the courtesy. Instead, anxious for a total

monopoly of health which he is quite incapable of delivering especially in the USA, he

seeks to eradicate all fancied rivals. Thus this policy will one day come to an end. It is

quite legal to heal by spiritual means and even part of the law of most states and countries

and, indeed, was the sole province of religion for thousands of years before the medical

doctor came along. But this is no reason why Scientology would make any effort to

replace the medical doctor since he has considerable value in the mechanics of bones and

structural matters. The only place he falls down is in handling general illnesses, especially

of a chronic nature.

203

Medicine has been overtaken in healing by nutritionists and biochemists. They still

seek to exclude these skills from their knowledge and experience. Indeed, when

demanding $46,000,000 to research heart disease from a not always bright Congress in

the U.S., medicine was contradicted by no less than the head of Health, Education and

Welfare who stated that their “research” as planned did not include biochemistry, a

rather strange omission since this is the most result-filled field. It goes without mention

that the demand also excluded nutritional research. Many individual doctors are prone to

attack any patients they find “on vitamins” or who timidly mention Vitamin E. And one

is struck with the fact that heart disease is the largest income source, I believe, of the

doctor.

Thus there is a blindness in medical circles to the most productive and curative

practices in the field of illness and thus, policy or not, organizations will soon have to

bend to public demand and route the bill to doctors only when they have broken bones

or need surgery to get the bullets or steering wheels out, and all others to the nutritionist

who DOES use all the modern developments in food, vitamins, minerals and advanced

biochemistry and use them intelligently.

An estimation of this latter field was therefore in order and I have for some time

now been engaged in an evaluation of it and a study of it.

What I have found is that the field lacks coordination of its knowledge, not just

from nutritionist to nutritionist but in the works of the same person. A tremendous

amount of material has been brought forth in the last three decades. It is in a state of near

chaos.

Liquefied grass and other dietary fads have become confused into the sober routine

subject of nutrition. Food fadism and nutritional knowledge are interlocked in the public

mind to such a degree that some unscrupulous fellow who knows better could advise

people to eat only tree bark and they accommodatingly would. For instance there are

books and books and books out currently, by M.D.s and others who should have done

their homework, inveighing against “cholesterol”: This is a biochemical composition of

animal oils and fats. They say it gets into the arteries and causes strokes and heart attacks.

Well, that is all very well. But did you also know that every glandular secretion in the

body, the secretions which keep one young and functioning are ALL made by the glands

from cholesterol? If people do not take in cholesterol bearing foods they, by simple logic,

could be seen to rapidly age and die. What’s wanted is the knowledge of how to keep

cholesterol controlled not how to take everyone off cholesterol. One would think the

American Medical Association owned shares in undertaking parlors.

A coordination of actual knowledge in these fields of nutrition and biochemistry is

what is lacking. Apparently researchers are clever enough to isolate materials but are not

wise enough to coordinate them fact against fact into an intelligible subject.

While examining this scene I have found that nutrition and biochemistry ARE the

leaders, however. The subjects are actually arts and in a rather primitive state. But illnesses

still puzzling medicine are in many cases quite old hat to the nutritionist.

If one wanted further proof, medical organizations, especially in the US, are

fighting nutrition with their usual violence where their pocket book is threatened— black

propaganda, government seizure orders and all the routine mechanisms medicine has

employed in its history to “safeguard” its interests are in full play against the health food

store and the vitamin counter. That is enough to prove the point that nutrition is the

leader in our contemporary times where physical health body treatment is concerned.

While the medical doctor and his psychiatry branch flood out the useless and

destructive “tranquilizers”, the nutritionist hands out a couple tablets of magnesium

which actually cool a person off beautifully and far more effectively without the physical

damage carried by the tranquilizer.

The medical doctor and his psychiatry branch gave the world its greatest wave of

drug addiction. Their friend the German-oriented psychologist, with his man-is-animal

teaching of the young and destruction of orthodox religion, has given the world its

greatest period of crime. They are on their way out even though they are fighting a dirty

and violent rearguard action. So why bet on losers? They won’t make it.

204

Nutrition’s star is rising into a blazing sun in the field of physical treatment of the

body. It is also wise enough to know and repeatedly state that spiritual and mental stress

MUST be handled before too much result can be obtained, which is perfectly true.

Thus I have going at this particular time a project of codification and coordination

of what is known in the fields of nutrition and biochemistry, not to be wiser than they, but

to get some order into this field so that its potential can be more fully realized.

This work is almost incidental to Scientology research. I am completing something

I started in 1945, which was a survey of biochemistry potentials in order to decide a

direction of research: did the mind monitor structure or structure, as medicine thought,

monitor the mind? The former was in 1945 found to be the true case to an overwhelming

degree.

But at the same time, when people are so body fixated that they have problems of a

physical nature too intense to admit of any other consideration, bringing them true power

and freedom becomes difficult unless one pays some attention to where their attention is

fixated.

Malnutrition, deficiencies in vitamins and minerals, chronic illnesses and unhealing

wounds are all needlessly distracting but they are nevertheless distracting.

There apparently exist easy ways to handle these things. There is no sense in

processing someone for a hundred hours only to find his only interest is curing his

headache and to discover that he has a headache because he is allergic to bread and eats

bread nearly as his sole diet! Or to find that the overweight fellow is just getting processed

to get his body thin and after scores of hours discover he is living on candy bars and has

been diabetic for years! Not when you can simply take the former off bread and wheat

and give the latter some trivalent chromium and protein and put a guard on the candy

store. Make no mistake—one CAN process over the top of these things and even handle,

for the spirit and mind dominate them. But why? It’s far easier to parallel the mind and

get the distraction handled so one can THEN get to why he got that way in the first place

if he is still interested, though well. One can do things the hard way or the easy way.

So nutrition and biochemistry are vital subjects and, due to medical influence, very

badly neglected subjects even in the presence of positive and even vital value.

My current review of these is in the nature of an assist to processing. As such, of

course, they have to embrace the factors of predisposition to, precipitation and

prolongation of physical illness.

It has already been established, prior to present records, while I was working with

the general field of life in 1945, and has been confirmed by contemporary researchers in

nutrition and biochemistry that Stress is the basic cause in physical illness. Thus, such

nutritional research cannot supplant the handling of stress. Further, conditions can exist

where nutrition and biochemistry cannot work at all until stress is relieved by processing.

Therefore, in lower stages of handling there is a band where thought and physical

beingness tend to merge. In this lower zone, assist type processing and nutritional or

biochemical aids seem to be simultaneously necessary. In such instances one must

alternate them or co-apply them.

There are also a few deficiencies which produce manifestations quite similar in

appearance to insanity.

Where the illness or injury is acute and severe immediate physical attention is

mandatory and can be assisted only by the lightest possible address to the mental factors,

perhaps as light as simply being comforting or gentle. In a case such as a person in a long

continued coma, where nutrition is intravenous, processing is still possible by gently

causing the person’s hand to make repeated contact on command with a pillow or the

bed. Thus it can be seen, processing can reach a long way down.

Above all this physical level material of course, the subject has been for a long time

wrapped up. Persons continuing to play the body game limit themselves in various ways

and by the nature of life and this civilization have their ups and downs even when well

processed. If they have attained a relatively high state as a bodied person they can

however be rehabilitated, usually simply by running out their overt acts and withholds and

restoring their exterior perception: they are, however, despite their continued physical

beingness, quite capable of easily assuming their full potentials: they usually prefer to go

205

on with the game by imposing limitations, for instance to continue using their eyes. One

rarely sees them do the stunts and tricks of the Indian fakir even where they can since

they have risen above exhibitionism or the need to overwhelm or prove things and they

are of course continuing to play the game of human being, since that is the main game

they have available around them.

There is undoubtedly a considerable amount of neating up that I could do,

including making all materials more readily available, seeing to the compilation of a very

extensive dictionary of terms, filling in incidental gaps where material may not have been

fully recorded. These are difficulties of a minor nature compared to the research in

making the result attainable.

It has been difficult working in a confused and, yes, even primitive society that is

starved for workable knowledge in the humanities. The very condition that made it vital to

seek out and release the material also made it difficult to do the job in the first place.

Scientology now has more than enough data and technology to handle even the

broad problems in the humanities. The main task now is getting it fully used, and along

this line there are hundreds of thousands working every day around the world.

Scientology is the fastest growing Religion on the planet by actual surveys and

statements by sociologists. And this is the more remarkable as in this period orthodox

Religions have shrunk before the materialistic onslaught of our times.

The materials of Scientology are the result of forty-three years of search,

coordination and application to millions. The organizations of Scientology have been

building and expanding for nineteen years (despite the fears and hates and jealousies of

this civilization) on five continents and making it all the way, thanks to the magnificent people of Scientology.

We are very rich in materials, in results and in the potential future. Through our

hardest times we have endured. Into our brightest times we are expanding.

These materials contain the full basics of the only game in the universe where

everyone wins, the game of triumphant life itself.

C/S Series 22

PSYCHOSIS

Through a slight change of procedure on certain preclears I have been able to

view the underlying motives and mechanisms of psychosis.

Very possibly this is the first time the mechanisms which bring about insanity

have been fully viewed. I must say that it requires a bit of confronting.

The alleviation of the condition of insanity has also been accomplished now and

the footnote in Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health concerning future

research into this field can be considered fulfilled.

The things a C/S should know about insanity are as follows:

HIGHER PERCENT

About 15% to 20% of the human race apparently is insane or certainly a much

higher percent than was estimated.

The truly insane do not necessarily act insane visibly. They are not the psychiatric obvious cases who go rigid for years or scream for days. This is observed only in the last stages or during temporary stress.

Under apparent social behavior the continual crimes knowingly committed by the

insane are much more vicious than ever has been catalogued in psychiatric texts.

The actions of the insane are not “unconscious”. They are completely aware of

what they are doing.

All insane actions are entirely justified and seem wholly rational to them. As they

have no reality on the harmful and irrational nature of their conduct it does not often

The product of their post duties is destructive but is excused as ignorance or

errors.

As cases in normal processing they roller coaster continually.

They nearly always have a fixed emotional tone. It does not vary in nearly all

insane people. In a very few it is cyclic, high then low.

All characteristics classified as those of the “suppressive person” are in fact those

of an insane person.

The easiest ways for a C/S to detect the insane are:

1. Pretending to do a post or duties, the real consistent result is destructive to

the group in terms of breakage, lost items, injured business, etc.

2. The case is no case gain or roller coaster and is covered under “PTS symptoms”.

155

3. They are usually chronically physically ill.

4. They have a deep but carefully masked hatred of anyone who seeks to help them.

5. The result of their “help” is actually injurious.

6. They often seek transfers or wish to leave.

7. They are involved in warfare with conflicts around them which are invisible to others. One wonders how they can be so involved or get so involved in so much hostility.

TYPES

The German psychiatric 1500 or so “different types of insanity” are just different

symptoms of the same cause. There is only one insanity and from it springs different

manifestations. Psychiatry erred in calling these different types and trying to invent

different treatments.

DEFINITION

Insanity can now be precisely defined.

The definition is:

INSANITY IS THE OVERT OR COVERT BUT ALWAYS COMPLEX AND

CONTINUOUS DETERMINATION TO HARM OR DESTROY.

Possibly the only frightening thing about it is the cleverness with which it can be

hidden.

Whereas a sane person can become angry or upset and a bit destructive for short

periods, he or she recovers. The insane mask it, are misemotional continuously and do

not recover. (Except by modern processing.)

THE NATURE OF MAN

Man is basically good. This is obvious. For when he begins to do evil he seeks to

destroy his memory in order to change and seeks to destroy his body. He seeks to

check his evil impulses by inhibiting his own skill and strength.

He can act in a very evil fashion but his basic nature then makes it mandatory that

he lessens himself in many ways.

The towering “strength” of a madman is a rarity and is compensated by efforts at

self-destruction.

Man’s mortality, his “one life” fixation, all stem from his efforts to check himself,

obliterate his memory in a fruitless effort to change his conduct and his self-destructive

habits and impulses and losses of skills and abilities.

As this rationale proves out completely in processing and fits all cases observed,

we have for the first time proof of his actual nature.

As only around 20% are insane, and as those who previously worked in the

mental field were themselves mainly insane, Man as a whole has been assigned an evil

repute. Govemments, where such personalities exist, listen to the opinion of the insane

and apply the characteristic of 20% to the entire hundred percent.

This gives an 80% wrong diagnosis. Which is why mental science itself was

destructive when used by states.

156

TECHNIQUES

The only technique available at this writing which will benefit the insane is

contained in all the overt-motivator sequences and Grade II technology.

At Flag at this writing new improvement on this exists but it is so powerful that

slight errors in use can cause a psychotic break in the insane. It therefore will only be

exported for use by specially trained persons and this programming will require quite a

while.

MEANWHILE it helps the C/S to know and use these firm rules:

ALWAYS RUN DIANETIC TRIPLES.

Never run Singles. The overt side (Flow 2) is vital. If you only run Flow 1

Motivators, the pc will not recover fully. Further running Flow 1 (Motivator only) any

psychotic being processed will not recover but may even trigger into a psychotic break.

If one never ran anything but motivators, psychotic manifestations would not erase.

DEPEND ON EXPANDED GRADE II TECHNOLOGY TO EASE OFF OR

HANDLE THE INSANE.

Don’t keep asking what’s been done to him as he’ll trigger.

A new discovery on this is that when you run out the motivator the person gets a

higher reality on his overts. If you ran out all his motivators he would have no reason

for his overts. If these are not then run out he might cave himself in.

PATTERN OF BEHAVIOR

The APPARENT pattern of insane behavior is to come in (ask for processing, go

on staff, etc) with the advertised intention of being helped or helping, then mess up

either as a pc or on post, then state how bad it all is and leave. It looks obvious enough.

He came, found it bad, left.

That is only the APPARENT behavior. APPARENT REASONS.

Based on numerous cases, this is the real cycle. Hearing of something good that

might help these hateful awful rotten nasty people, the psycho comes in, wrecks this,

upsets that, caves in this one, chops up that one and WHEN SOMEBODY SAYS

“NO!” the psychotic either

(a) Caves himself in physically or

(b) Runs away.

The psychotic is motivated by intent to harm.

If he realizes he is harming things he shouldn’t, he caves himself in. If he is

afraid he will be found out, he runs.

In the psychotic the impulse is quite conscious.

CONCLUSION

None of this is very nice. It is hard to confront. Even I find it so.

Freud thought all men had a hidden monster in them for he dealt mainly with the

psychotic and their behavior was what he saw.

All men are not like this. The percentage that are is greater than I supposed but is

a long way from all men.

157

Sometimes one only becomes aware of these when things are getting worked on

and improved. They stay on as long as it can be made bad or there is hope it can be

destroyed. Then when attention is given to improvement they blow.

Artists, writers often have these types hanging around them as there is someone

or something there to be destroyed. When success or failure to destroy or possible

detection appears on the scene they blow, often as destructively as possible.

Orgs are subjected to a lot of this. A psychotic sometimes succeeds in blowing off

good staff. And then sooner or later realizes how evil he is acting and sickens or leaves.

The society is not geared to any of this at all. The insane walk around wrecking

the place and decent people think it’s “human nature” or “inevitable” or a “bad

childhood”.

As of this writing the insane can be handled. The proof of any pudding is the

processing. And this is successful. It is also rather swift. But, as I say, it is so swift the

special technique has to be done by the specially trained flubless auditor.

For a long while I’ve realized that we would have to be able to handle insane

people as the psychiatrist is fading. I have had opportunity to work on the problem.

And have it handled. Until it is fully released, the C/S will benefit greatly from

knowing the above as these come on his lines far more often than he has suspected.

The insane can be helped. They are not hopeless.

I trust this data will be of use.

CASE ANALYSIS

HEALTH RESEARCH

I recently indicated that I was doing some research into alleviation of physical

difficulties, not because we are in healing but because the AMA should be taught a

lesson for attacking us.

The research took a sudden optimistic turn with the new subject of Case Analysis,

HCO Bulletin of November 26, 1963. While Case Analysis is not used for healing

purposes, it can be varied at very low levels to produce some astonishing results in

health.

The steps for Case Analysis are (1) Discover what the pc is sitting in, (2) Get the

lies off, (3) Locate and indicate the charge. In (1) the pc is sitting in whatever the pc

says he or she is sitting in, i.e. “I don’t know” means pc is sitting in a puzzle and is

used with steps (2) and (3) by finding what he has supposed and then with the Itsa

handled, establishing the truth of it.

The following example severely follows the (1), (2) and (3) steps of Case

Analysis without seeming to and without the pc having a clue about either Case

Analysis or Scientology for that matter. This was done by a DScn using the new

fundamentals of Case Analysis as an independent action to help someone, and very

cleverly done it was. I asked the auditor to write it up for you.

“Dear Ron,

“An account of an assist which I gave recently.

“The pc, aged 17 years, was completely new to Scientology: he was suffering

from chronic bronchitis, which was currently particularly worrying to him as he had just been given a serious warning by his doctor that this could become TB.

“I used the case-analysis assist, first establishing he was ‘sitting in’ chest trouble,

then getting him to tell me all he could about the condition, then I asked (after the TA

had slowed down) what he considered was the cause of the trouble, i.e. getting the

untruth off, and he said, ‘Well, I think it is caused by the climate’—this was

accompanied by a big TA blowdown; no further considerations were forthcoming and

no more TA action, so I then asked if this condition ‘had anything to do with something

that he himself had wanted to do’ (i.e. an ACTUAL GPM)—no BD, so then asked did

it have any connection with ‘something that someone else had tried to make him do’

(i.e. IMPLANT GPM), no BD, so then asked if this was connected with someone or

something he had ever known (RIs). This produced a big BD and pc spoke of his

grandfather’s death: a further BD when I enquired if his grandfather had died of some

chest trouble. Then I asked if any other person or incident was connected to his chest

trouble: big BD on ‘Nearly drowned in a swimming pool just before grandfather died.’

I let him ITSA on both these incidents until TA slowed down, then indicated to him that the trouble was connected to grandfather’s death AND the near-drowning incident—this gave a further BD.

388

“In all this assist (in model session) took 34 minutes and made 7 divisions of TA

BD: pc made his goal ‘To get to the cause of the trouble’, and the Gain: ‘It’s got me

deeply interested in the work.’ Pc has virtually lost his cough and has applied for a staff appointment at HCO WW. This pc had never heard of Scientology prior to about one week before the assist.

Best,

(Auditor)”

Note: 12 days after this auditing the coughing was still in abeyance.

OPERATIONAL BULLETIN NO. 9 19 December 1955

THE TURN OF THE TIDE

The London Daily Mail feature editor, John Hall, took it upon himself on

December 13, 1955, to personally interview me, and write exactly what he found. He

published in the Daily Mail, a first run paper published in London, Edinburgh,

Manchester and Paris, a very long and friendly story which will probably do us more

good in the British Isles and France than anything which has happened for a long time.

Time Magazine has written eight pages, there have been about 80 columns in U.S.

magazines such as Life, Liberty, Look, and there has been untold press released on the

subject of Dianetics and Scientology. But aside from one young communist who spent

about three minutes talking to me on the stairs, at Elizabeth, and a fellow who wandered

in, from Life he said, and never wrote anything, in Los Angeles, there has been no press

reporter near me since before the publication of Dianetics: The Modern Science of

Mental Health.

That feature editor, John Hall, did take it upon himself to actually do an interview,

and that the results were favourable caused me to make a little investigation concerning

how press has been operating before, and on what it has been operating. Evidently the

total activity of press has been to pick up slanted and hearsay information. So I was

interested to find out how this information came into being. Apparently it works this way:

to make some sort of “face”, somebody who met me at a cocktail bar then pretends a

considerable knowingness on the subject of all of my life and activities, and gives forth at

a considerable pace not handicapped in the least by the possession of no data, and this by

and large whether done by Scientologists or casual acquaintances has been the total sum

of information which has been circulated about myself since the late ‘30s.

As even John Sanborn can tell you, I have been very chary about releasing any

actual information about myself. I had a rather large collection of old-time photographs

which I thought we might put into Ability, and at the last moment made John put in

something else. I have not been anxious, in other words, to put up a big show of myself,

thinking that Scientology was enough for its own sake. In this I have apparently made an

error. I look over possible available sources of unbiased information concerning my own

past, and discover that while it could be traced down on official records in libraries and

other places and confirmed, there is no one who even knows enough about it to do that

job of coordination. Thus it is necessary that I release some accurate biographical

information to supplant some of this rumour and hodge-podge which has been spread

around in the name of information. There is plenty of authenticating and documenting

material if one cares to look for it.

Now I know that it is extremely bad taste to put out any data concerning oneself, or

to talk about oneself, but if people see fit to talk about one and, having nothing to talk

about, therefore lie about one, and if this rebounds as widely as it has, through presses,

books, plays and motion pictures, certainly one has some responsibility for putting out

something like an accurate biographical narrative to say the least, and so we are doing so

at this time, and then I can forget about it and go on doing something more important.

For sure, however, the tide has turned on the subject of press, which doesn’t mean,

however, that we should give the technical materials of Scientology to press. The best way

to talk to press is to sort of two-way comm process them, and show them stacks of case

histories, and let the deeds speak.

BRAINWASHING MANUAL

HISTORY

In our studies of brainwashing it has been necessary to procure what information

existed on the subject. Fortuitously, in Phoenix there came into our hands two

manuscripts on the subject; as well as I can recollect, they were left there at the front desk

with the request that they be mailed back to their owner. We are not sure exactly from

whom these came, but we understand now that this is unimportant since the subject is

broadly rather well known in a book on Psychopolitics. It is to be found in the Library of

Congress. It is in German, but we suppose it is the same manual. As we needed this

material for research, we read it off onto a tape, compiling the two manuals and removing

from them some of their very verbose nomenclature, substituting for it more common

English terms, and we have had a few copies of this struck off for use in our research.

It is necessary if one is confronted by a case of brainwashing to understand the

motives and general procedures of the people who did it. I must say an inspection of this

manual does not make for much respect for the motives of people who brainwash other

people. In the early pages of this manual, there is a letter from the person who

purportedly gave these manuals to the organization, “Charles Stickley”, supposed to be a

professor at Columbia University in New York City. This letter, included in the manuals as

printed, makes it definitely and adequately clear that these manuals were reprinted for

study by research workers. However, in handing out a copy of one of these manuals to

one of our own people who had not heard of it, he made several wrong estimates of the

manual itself. At first he thought it was a piece of communist propaganda. Then he

thought it was something the organization had composed. Then on further inspection, he

did not know what to think and it had to be pointed out to him very specifically that this

was a synthesis of a Russian instruction book on the subject of brainwashing, and it had to

be pointed out to him that it was reprinted for the benefit of people working to remedy

and heal brainwashing. It had to be pointed out to him additionally that there was a cover

letter in it which explained these things. Thus if you have one of these copies and it gets

away from you which it might, you may find it necessary to explain exactly what it is.

We certainly have the right to have in our possession materials covering something

as intimately connected to mental research as brainwashing. We have the right to know

why and where and who. Furthermore, this material is evidently well known to various

governments and is not classified, since the subject “Psychopolitics” (which is the

technical name for brainwashing) is to be found in the major libraries of the world.

In the original text of this book there was a warning to psychopolitical operatives

that they must stamp out Dianetics, Christian Science, and practical psychology, as these

alone represented a menace to the brainwashing programmes. This reference in the text to

Dianetics (which has been known to the Russians since 1938) makes the matter very much

our business, quite aside from research. Yet if most of the vagaries and upsets from which

we have been suffering have stemmed from a desire on the part of some political group

attempting to accomplish a political coup and in the road of which we have been standing,

then we certainly have the right to know why we have been knocked around by press and

governments to the degree that we have been. Hardly a word uttered against Dianetics and

Scientology has had any truth in it. The prevalent official but not the public opinion

regarding Dianetics and Scientology is that they are phony sciences, tricked up to

hoodwink people. Contrast this with the fact that in Dianetics and Scientology alone in all

the world of mental healing lie the answers to increased intelligence and ability, and not

very incidentally, in Dianetics and Scientology and in Dianetics in particular, we have the

total antidote for the eradication of brainwashing. In other words we could unbrainwash

them with Dianetics as fast as they are being brainwashed, given enough staff.

Furthermore we can put troops and persons in a condition where they cannot be

brainwashed. This we can do in Scientology.

Thus if brainwashing is being counted upon heavily to accomplish a great deal inside and outside the nations under attack, there would be only one organization

312

which would be standing thoroughly in the road of that programme, and if that

programme inside a country had advanced to a point where officials could be influenced,

then you would discover of course this odd official opinion of Dianetics and Scientology,

that they are quack sciences.

We are not planning to use this reprinted manual for purposes of propaganda.

However, to prevent any misunderstanding from occurring, the highest police in England

and America have both received copies and have been told that this is a reprint manual,

and that we do not wish to cause them any extra labour in case another one of them falls

into their hands. Actually, however, it is my belief that they have had the original, which is

to say the communist version of these manuals, in their possession for years, and have

simply been unable to credit it or unable to do anything about it. Thus our reprinted

version should come as no shock to them.

It has been my experience with Anglo-Saxon governments that where idea

propaganda line attacks were concerned they couldn’t care less. They do not believe that

propaganda is effective. Otherwise they would themselves engage in more propaganda

activities. The Anglo-Saxon traditionally depends upon force in order to accomplish his

ends.

This is one of the reasons why communism has made such vast progress across the

face of the world. It is an idea advancing against arms, and the arms of course will never

be able to stop an idea. An idea will be necessary to stop the idea. We may very

unfortunately be those persons in possession of the idea that will stop the other idea.

Certainly the way things are going, if we don’t use our ideas to stop the incoming ideas

across the face of earth, we are going to wind up one of these days in the middle of a total

communism, living in a totally brainwashed society, the way I look at it.

WASHINGTON CONGRESS

My very best wishes to the Congress and my hopes for a highly successful time by

all. I have made several recent tapes on material of some interest and value which have

been sent swiftly and rapidly across so that the latest material would be available at the

Congress. I have not made, however, a welcoming tape as I ordinarily would, and take this

opportunity to thank those people who came, and hope that they go away feeling better,

and feeling happier about things. There is no doubt that the Washington operation is on

the steep upgrade and my principal communication in Scientology is between myself and

the Washington operation where Bill Young, Julia Lewis, Ken Barrett, Don Breeding have

things pretty well in hand. The silver ministers’ crosses are ready now and are supposed

to be a knockout. The Co-Auditor’s Manual is ready, the “Brainwashing” pamphlet is

being released to those who are interested in the subject, and it should be with all a very

successful Congress indeed. I wish I were there.

NEWEST PROCESSES

I am tabling up all those processes which have been successful in starting low toned

cases. These have amounted to about 24 new processes in the last three or four months.

This table will be available in the near future with an analysis on it. However, I wish to call

to your attention the singular success of Waterloo Station in handling low-ordered cases.

Not-knowingness is time. If a person cannot not-know he becomes the slave of time.

One of the more interesting late developments is a process called “‘Orrible Fates”.

You ask the preclear to tell you some ‘orrible fates. The theory of this is very simple and

will probably become Axiom 55, which will be to the effect that the cycle of action of the

physical universe is create, change, destroy. Thus, anyone trying to make things better

and in very close agreement with the physical universe, in reversing this cycle, will bring

upon himself some regret. We have a wild example of this in the cycle of action imposed

upon us by Christianity in the good works, the hounding and the death of Christ. This

mechanism, also handled in Fac One, gives us the oddity that we are trying to put create

forward in time, whereas destroy lies forward in time. One then either masters the subject

of time, by running not-knowingness processes, or he

313

puts into the future inventions of horrible fates for various persons and himself and this

universe, until he runs out the considerable regret which is accumulated every time he has

envisioned a good action. Naturally the final solution of this is the solution of agreement

with the physical universe. When one breaks this and it is no longer disagreement or

agreement, he has really done something, and the keynote of doing this thing is, of

course, in “not-knowingness”.

NEW AUDITING STYLE

I have made a direct deliberate test, not of a process but of the auditing style itself

as a helpful agent. The keynote of new auditing style is that any boil-off, somatic, anaten,

swing of attention or going out of session on the part of the preclear is occasioned by

some sort of error or miscomprehension on the part of the auditor, and the preclear. I

used a general process not ordinarily very therapeutic, but not destructive, and starting

with this process and a preclear, worked only in one direction: to keep the ARC of the

preclear advancing continually throughout the session, proceeding from the level of ARC

of the preclear just before he came into session—in other words, consistently and

consecutively bettered him. I did this by two-way communication, and communication

bridges. Every time the preclear tended to go out of session even slightly, every time any

slightest sign of dropped awareness occurred, I assumed at once that something had gone

wrong with the session. I assumed that something had been said which he didn’t

understand, or something had been overlooked, or that something had been done in error

on the two-way comm formula, and immediately researched this fact to put the session

straight again. In other words, during this entire session I did nothing but put the session

straight with two-way communication, and run a relatively noncommittal duplicating

process on the preclear. The process I knew of old was not going to produce any grand

rise in tone. However, this preclear who was usually difficult to audit finished up a halfhour

session in much better condition than this preclear had been in in years.

The assumption here on the part of the auditor is that if the preclear goes into a

slump, has a somatic, or otherwise drops in ARC, then a difficulty has arisen with the

session. We calculate this from the following: that at the top of the tone scale we have

knowingness and awareness, in the middle ranges we have ARC, in the lower ranges

somatics, and in the far lower ranges, varying degrees of unconsciousness. Thus when we

say that the preclear’s tone should be promoted throughout the session, we mean of

course that he must not be slumping toward unconsciousness. He must be advancing

toward higher levels of consciousness.

Therefore today it can be said that good auditing does not result in boil-off and

somatic unconsciousness, dope-off, or pain, but results in a constant and consistent

advance of the ARC of the preclear from the first moment of the session to the end of the

session, when it should be much higher, and that any time there is anything wrong at all

with the session, the preclear will reply by getting more unconscious. This was about the

most arduous and rigorous test that could be made of new auditing style with a difficult

preclear and following very solidly the precept that it would be an auditing error if the

preclear dropped off in attention or consciousness. Thus when I have said that in the new

auditing style we should always advance ARC, I meant exactly what I said, and have even

gone so far as to run an auditing session which was nothing more than an auditing session

to demonstrate that an auditing session all by itself with the two-way communication

consequent to it would result in increased tone for the preclear. By the way, this type of

auditing also results in increased tone for the auditor, so we are winning both ways.

REPORTS FROM WASHINGTON

Washington has recently received a stack of forms from me which they were

supposed to fill out weekly and send through as reports on conditions, finances, etc. This

is really not so much an effort to fill up my “vacuum of information” as it is to get the

Washington operation to pay very close attention to these details themselves. The theory is

that if they have to compile these data, they will then know these data, and, knowing them,

they will see what the situation actually is.

314

I believe much of the activity which goes on in an organization is done without any

real realization of what the condition of the organization is, and it may very well be that

for the last five years, only myself and a few others have been actually conscious of the

real condition of Dianetics and Scientology organizations with regard to their business

organization and finance. This sort of situation cannot of course continue. Dianeticists

and Scientologists working inside of organizations and keeping them running would be

as competent as they knew what was going on in the organization, and they would know

as well what was going on in the organization as they were acquainted with the problems

which the organization actually faced in terms of business and finance.

Probably one of the things which has held us back more than anything else was a

good working knowledge of business itself. The basic maxim of business is simplicity

itself, and that is first, that there must be an organization there, and second, that it must

perform its duties and functions, and third, that it must originate communications as well

as receive communications, and fourth, that its income must be slightly greater than its

outgo, and fifth, that persons inside the organization should know what was going on

generally in the organization.

I instituted this report system when I discovered that the Washington operation

could sit there and not notice that the training department itself had never originated a

single letter of procurement to prospective students. Mary Sue was originating all these

letters, and when she left Washington to come over to London (having stayed behind to

square things away), the training department, which had the responsibility for emanating

all communication on the subject of procurement of students, wrote not one single letter

to anyone anywhere. Thus Washington is involved in a slump. Similar to Australia, where

internecine warfare kept people from communicating out to the world at large,

Washington was brought into an intensified usual Christmas slump by a failure to

originate communications. Another circumstance came to my attention which was very

amusing. Over a period of two weeks, I was being asked by the downtown office if Silver

Spring had received a cheque for expenses. Downtown Washington was communicating

with me to find out a datum about Silver Spring which if a map is inspected will be found

to be eight miles away. Silver Spring was not communicating this information to

downtown Washington, and downtown Washington evidently never thought of asking

Silver Spring. I let it ride until they eventually got together on the subject.

Interdepartmental bulletins and meetings to exchange information are absolutely

necessary if an organization is going to continue in a healthy state.

It is time that the central organization of Scientology began to circulate bulletins on

what it is doing. I know definitely that in each department branch of the entire

Washington operation everyone, with very small exception, is doing his all-out level best

to keep everything rolling and they are doing a wonderful job of it. I think, however, that

from department to department the Washington operation doesn’t know this. How about

meeting each other, you guys?

HEALTH FORM, USE OF

As one needs a guide to know what to audit on a case, the Dianetic Health Form

is an essential auditing action.

Also, some cases do not know they have recovered. It is Scientology that

addresses improved awareness, not Dianetics. Dianetics accomplishes an eradication of

the unwanted condition and when it is gone it is gone. The pc will not again mention it

in many cases and it would be an error to hammer him about being better now.

Therefore a second Health Form gives a comparison. The somatics and pains not

mentioned in the second which were in the first can be considered to be gone.

A second form done later gives the auditor and (when a Case Supervisor is also

on the case) the Case Supervisor an indication of the actual improvement. A few days,

weeks or months can elapse between giving the form. This gives an indication of

improvement. Any number of Health Forms can be given.

One of the old problems of Dianetics was that the pc recovered from his arthritis

fully and then only nagged the auditor about a new symptom. It wasn't that the pc had

to have an illness (only the 19th century psychologist believed that it was no use to cure

anything as the patient just got something else). The fact is that the symptoms of the pc

are several, not just one.

You take up and audit each symptom or complaint, one after the other.

This is a new advance in Dianetics—that a preclear's illness or upset has more

than one source. His illness or upset is a composite.

You audit the most available symptom first. Then find the next one and audit it,

then the next, etc.

The symptom in which the pc is most interested is the one to do first. You run its

secondary or engram or chain and it vanishes.

Then do the one in which he is now interested and run its secondary or engram or

Now find the next symptom, etc.

Sooner or later the pc will have tremendous good indicators, be smiling, happy.

That's the time to quit. Right there. Until then, keep finding and fully erasing the

latest symptom the pc has.

This can be done with or without a meter. The meter makes it easier. The biggest

read on an item given on the Health Form is the one to audit first.

One finds "an incident which could have caused that", dates it loosely, runs it as

an incident without pushing hard, gets an earlier similar incident and runs that, or even

a third or fourth earlier similar (each time earlier) incident until a floating needle or the

pc indicates the thing is gone.

Then one finds out what may now be bothering the pc and does the same action

on it.

329

Sooner or later the pc will become bright, happy, symptom free.

Symptoms are pains, emotional feelings, tiredness, aches, pressures, sensations,

unwanted states of the body, etc.

The only point where an auditor may get a hang-up is when he encounters an

earlier wrong diagnosis. Someone told the pc he had heart trouble and the pc gives that

as a symptom but doesn't really have one. When such a puzzle comes up you look for

allies (other people) who had heart trouble (or whatever the thing was) or you find out

from the pc and meter if it was a wrong diagnosis.

If you are auditing without a meter, you take the pc's interest as the indicator.

You audit the symptom in which he is interested and cease to audit it when it is gone.

You can use whatever is given on the original Health Form that was done until the

form is no longer valid or until the pc's good indicators are in. When the pc brightens

up, that's the end of that Health Form. A new one must be done WHEN THE PC IS

AGAIN FEELING BAD, TIRED OR WORRIED.

The purpose of any session or series of sessions is to get the pc feeling well and

happy.

Sometimes the pc's condition is obvious and the engram equally obvious. The pc

has just had a child. The delivery of it and any earlier similar engram is of course

audited at once. Any recent experience is so handled.

If a pc wants no auditing and yet is ill or miserable, one finds out why he doesn't

want to be audited by getting him to explain (when he will become auditable) or one

finds and runs as secondaries, engrams or chains bad experiences with treatment.

If the pc doesn't recover at all, then the Auditor's Code has been violated or the

engrams were overrun or not run long enough to erase or the pc was very ill medically and should have had a medical examination first.

But even with poor auditing it is rare for a pc not to recover.

Of course, the more skilled (follows the Auditor's Code, knows his meter,

knows his Dianetics) the Auditor is, the more certain recovery becomes.

The worst crime is overwhelming the pc by telling him what's wrong, not letting

him tell you.

The Health Form is of very great assistance in handling all this. The use of it is as

follows:

1. The Auditor sits down with the pc (usually the pc on a meter) and explains he's

going to do a Health Form and try to help the pc.

2. The Form is completed.

3. The Auditor picks out by meter or by asking the pc which symptom he has his

attention on.

4. The Auditor finds an incident that had that symptom in it, dates it and runs it as an

incident.

5. The incident (and symptom) erases or the Auditor finds an earlier similar incident,

etc, dates it and erases it until the incidents and symptoms are gone.

6. A new symptom is located on the Health Form by meter or pc's interest.

7. Steps 4 and 5 are repeated.

330

8. A new symptom is located on the Health Form or by pc's complaint.

9. Steps 4 and 5 are repeated.

10. We go on doing this until the pc is suddenly well, smiling and happy and at that

moment we at once desist.

11. We tell the pc that is the end of the session. Note if several sessions were required

to do the above, we start each new one by telling the pc it's started and end each

session by telling the pc the session is ended.

Each session is written down as it is done and preserved for future correction or

use.

The basic Health Form follows as part of this HCO B. Individual copies are made

out for each pc and left in his case folder.

DIANETIC USE

Why Dianetics fell out of use had nothing to do with its workability. It has

worked and well since 1950.

In some areas, mainly the US, it was illegal to heal or cure anything. There was

even a law in California giving 25 illnesses that were against the law to cure. The

"Better" Business Bureau in the US even issues pamphlets that state that "You can

always tell a fake healer because he says he can cure something".

Why a civilization would make it illegal to cure illness can only be explained by

some vested interest making more money out of people being sick than getting people

well.

There existed a continual threat to anyone who helped their fellows.

The ability of Scientology to bring about spiritual freedom therefore received the

concentration of effort by organisations.

Lately public opinion has turned heavily against these suppressive groups and the

public discovery that illegal seizure, torture and murder was the hidden activity of

political psychiatric groups has lost these people their support.

It was overlooked that spiritual healing of the body has not been illegal and that

Dianetics used for pastoral counseling is completely legal.

It is a sobering thought that the only effective technology of psychosomatic

healing—Dianetics—could be suppressed out of full usage.

One is handling the effect of the spirit on the body. Therefore even Dianetics is

spiritual healing and as such is far from illegal.

Man should not be kept ill just to let a few have a monopoly.

In almost all other countries than the US there is no restriction on healing despite

monopolistic efforts to make one.

Another reason Dianetics was for some time out of use was that it was believed it

had been superseded by Scientology which it never was in fact. Dianetics can be done

with no reference whatever to Scientology or its techniques.

People who have given up through illness are also prone to want to leave. Instead

of confronting their illness it is easier to try to get away from it. Thus such people are in

a hurry to be free and prefer Scientology. But if they have a sick body, it is a present

time problem and inhibits attaining the spiritual freedom they seek.

The correct procedure is to make them well wherever possible with medical

treatment and to handle their psychosomatic illnesses with Dianetics and then, before

any further abuses by life can occur, to raise their ability and secure their freedom with

Scientology. This is the correct use of Dianetics. It is the remedy for psychosomatic

illness.

347

The basic use of Dianetics is to make a well body and to augment physical

treatment.

Any injurious experience can be erased by Dianetics. It is very easy to use and if

one wants people well and happy it should be used at every occasion.

A person has an operation. This should be followed soon after by the erasure of

the engram of the experience by R-3-R and the usual Dianetic auditor actions. The

healing time will be greatly speeded and often healing will occur where a relapse might

have followed.

A woman has a child. The engram of delivery should be run out soon after. The

result of doing so is very spectacular. There is no "postpartum psychosis" or dislike of

the child and no permanent injury to the mother. It is in fact best to audit the mother

both before and after the delivery, which gives one fast relatively painless childbirth

and quick recovery.

Recovery from disease under treatment is speeded by Dianetic auditing.

Where the incident of the break is, with any chain, run out, a broken limb will

heal (by X-ray evidence) in two instead of six weeks.

Some patients who are not responding to medical treatment who are then given as

little as a touch assist will then be found responsive to the medical treatment. An auditor

giving the person a Dianetic session will more or less ensure that the medical treatment

will now work.

A person who is accident prone when audited usually loses this unwanted

characteristic.

Many "insane" recover from their symptoms when given proper medical

treatment, rest, no harassment and then good mild Dianetic processing. They become

and remain normal people without relapse.

Chronic, which is to say, long-term illnesses cease when audited by Dianetics and

then medical treatment, which was earlier ineffective.

Whole classes of "mentally retarded" children have been made more normal by

teachers in London County Council schools using relatively unskilled Dianetics.

Tiredness, unwanted sensations, bizarre pains and aches, bad hearing or sight

also routinely respond to Dianetic processing.

The sickness and death rate of persons who are part of Dianetic groups is only a

small fraction of that of other groups.

Pilots audited with Dianetics, by a test involving a whole squadron, went without

a single even minor accident for the following year.

Scientists audited with Dianetics have greatly improved intelligence. Dianetics

raises IQ as a side product to usual auditing, at a rate of about one point of IQ per hour

of processing.

Withered limbs, skin blotches and rashes and even blindness and deafness have

all responded to Dianetics.

Possibly the point which counted most against Dianetics in the early attacks on it

was that it did a vast array of things. The truth was, it actually did them. When you

have the answer to the human mind as in Dianetics of course anything caused by the

mind can be remedied.

348

It is very much easier to train a Dianetic auditor than a Scientology auditor. It

requires only about a month to make a Dianetic auditor who is sufficiently conversant

with the subject to get results. This too was used against Dianetics as the psychiatrist of

that day claimed he himself needed twelve years of study to do psychiatry. Of course

when the public found out that the product of these twelve years of study was killing

the "insane" and increasing their number the argument became silly.

The spectacular personal gains which were available in Scientology were so great

they tended to obscure the very real use and value of Dianetics.

Further, a Scientology executive trained and processed beyond the need of body

help tended to forget that much of the public out there first had to be helped out of their

physical misery before they could attempt anything like personal gain.

You use Dianetics much the way you would use any remedy.

When a fellow is burned you audit out the burn.

When a woman loses a loved one you audit out the loss.

When a young man can't finish his schooling you audit out his unhappy school

experiences.

Dianetics is for USE. There is not a lot of admin about it. It isn't something you

use after bowing down three times to Chicago. You just USE it.

A Dianetic auditor who sees someone sick and who doesn't get him treatment and

then audit him is just not humane.

Woman going to have a baby—get out the meter and audit her into shape for it.

When she's had it, run out the delivery.

Fellow burns his hand, break out the meter.

Dianetics is the answer to human suffering. USE it.

Ideas build up to halt the use of Dianetics such as "once you have a floating

needle on engrams you don't run them any more—-". That's silly. An F/N on a chain

can be called the end of that chain. But not of Dianetics on the case.

I am not trying to make anyone wrong by reintroducing the real use of Dianetics.

I myself had not realized how separate and vital it was as a technology until recently. I

was engaged for many years researching and completing Scientology. I had not noticed

and had not said that Dianetics must be preserved and used in all cases of

psychosomatic illness or in physical suffering.

Yet, during all this time when I had to handle illness, I did not use Scientology. I

used good old Dianetics.

Now I have refined it and made a better statement of it and made it easier to use

and I trust it will be used for what it was intended and that Scientology grades will be

relieved of the burden of attempting to heal physical illness, a use for which it was

never designed.

Scientology is a vital practice in itself. It places a person above any further illness

or suffering. But he has to be made well first.

People will ask, "Deafness? Now what special process is needed in curing deafness ......?"

349

This is one of the modern refinements of Dianetics. One runs whatever is

assessed for the preclear. He doesn't decide to cure somebody of deafness. He handles

the illness that reads. Maybe it will be deafness.

You have one single procedure covering all cases and that is R-3-R and the steps

of HCOB 16 Apr 69. You audit what reads when assessed. The whole of the person's

complaints, if you just keep on going with HCOB 16 Apr 69, should eventually vanish.

Ed. Note: R-3-R stands for Routine 3 Revised i.e. an old version of dianetic auditing.

HCOB 16 Apr 69 refers to “Health Form” bulletin including herein (follow link to bookmark)

Having gotten the pc well by medical care and Dianetic auditing, then start out

with Scientology. If he gets sick again before many grades, revert to Dianetics, handle

it and then when he is well, resume Scientology where you left off.

Never run a Scientology grade to make a pc well or cure something. It's a

misapplication.

By using Dianetics as readily as you use shoes you can make and keep people

well. You don't worry about overruns, rudiments or anything else. You just use R-3-R

even to correct ARC Breaks and PTPs and bad auditing.

By then correctly using Scientology we can make the person a far better being.

We now have STANDARD DIANETICS.

We have developed Scientology STANDARD TECH.

Both are now valid as themselves.

They do not cross.

Dianetics for the body.

Scientology for the spirit.

USE BOTH.

DIANETIC ASSISTS

(Include in Medical Series)

The Use of Dianetics to the Medical Doctor

There is everything to be said for correct medical treatment in the handling of the

sick and insane.

"Insanity" is most often the suppressed agony of actual physical illness and injury.

To "treat" this agony with shock and "brain operations" is a Nuremberg type

offense and is indictable as mayhem or manslaughter.

The medical treatment of "insanity" requires sure awareness by the patient of his

whereabouts and present time. These are usually quite unbearable so he has sunk into

the past to escape the agony of the present.

The TOUCH ASSIST given to such injured persons permits healing to occur by

restoring the person to the present and his whereabouts to some degree.

Healing after medical treatment might not occur rapidly if the "insane" or

chronically ill person remains in the past, unable to confront the present.

Thus the touch assist speeds and often permits healing after medical treatment and

sometimes in minor injuries and illness permits the doctor to accomplish healing

without further treatment.

There is the TOUCH ASSIST, the CONTACT ASSIST and the AUDITING

ASSIST.

The touch assist done as described elsewhere brings the patient's attention to

injured or affected body areas. When attention is withdrawn from them, so is

circulation, nerve flows and energy which for one thing limits nutrition to the area and

for another prevents the drain of waste products. Some ancient healers attributed

remarkable flows and qualities to the "laying on of hands". Probably the workable

element in this was simply heightening awareness of the affected area and restoring the

physical communication factors.

The CONTACT ASSIST is remarkable when it can be done. The patient is taken

to the area where the injury occurred and makes the injured member gently contact it

several times. A sudden pain will fly off and the injury if minor lessens or vanishes.

This is again a physical communication factor. The body member seems to have

withdrawn from that exact spot in the physical universe.

The restoration of awareness is often necessary before healing can occur.

The prolongation of a chronic injury occurs in the absence of physical

communication with the affected area or with the location of the spot of injury in the

physical universe.

The AUDITING ASSIST is done by a trained auditor using an E-Meter.

318

It consists of "running out" the physically painful experience the person has just

undergone, accident, illness, operation or emotional shock. This erases the "psychic

trauma" and speeds healing to a remarkable degree if done properly.

In addition to assists there is Dianetic auditing of an acutely ill person which

handles the current and past illnesses and injuries by erasing the "physical trauma".

The last is a skilled activity. Practitioners who have the idea such things do not

have causes will of course fail to locate the causes.

A sickness can be composed, let us say, of a headache, a nausea, apathy and

weariness.

Such a sickness may be bizarre, without medical reason.

By first getting the patient to find and say what shock occurred when the sickness

began, getting when, and getting it recounted, the "illness" will lessen, the emotional

state will alter—called a "release of affect".

By then finding an earlier similar instance and getting that one dated and

recounted a further release of affect may occur.

If the good indicators, smiles, etc, do not occur in the patient, one again asks for

an earlier incident, dates it and gets it recounted.

The phenomena of "floating needle" on the E-Meter should not be bypassed on a

physically sick person. If it occurs, regardless of when, and the patient is smiling and

suddenly free from symptoms, one at once desists with further auditing on that subject

and at that time.

If no floating needle and a full release of symptoms occur, one then traces back

the remaining symptoms. Let us say the headache is now gone due to recounting times

of emotional duress. But the patient is still slightly nauseous. One traces the nausea to

earlier or other incidents. It will vanish when found and dated.

The apathy vanished somewhere along the way but weariness remains. One traces

the weariness to another or other incidents.

In short one handles each manifestation of the bizarre illness until all symptoms

are gone and the patient is happy and cheerful.

Needless to say all this requires a skilled auditor but the skill can be acquired in a

Dianetic training course.

The important thing is not to tell the patient what caused it, but to let him tell you.

Otherwise the symptom suppresses.

The approach in any of these assists is quiet, gentle, permissive, never forcing the

patient, speaking only the words required to do the process.

The temporarily insane by reason of emotional shock, where no medical illness

exists, should be permitted rest and should then be handled by an assist as above or

normal Dianetic auditing. Most often, rest and no further harassment result in a return

to sanity in a short time such as a few days, but not in a terror atmosphere such as a

psychiatric asylum where the patient is in the risk of being hurt or killed. Electric shock

prolongs the condition and brain surgery is of course not treatment but murder as at

best it deprives the person of his coordination and at worst shortens his life. The

occasional and rare brain tumour is of course an exception but this is a medical not a

psychiatric matter, no matter what manifestations the person exhibits. Most medically ill

people do exhibit symptoms of mental derangement at some stage of their illness.

The acceleration of healing of medical illness or injury such as broken bones or

319

the aftereffects of delivery or operations can be accomplished by the Dianetic

auditing of the resulting trauma soon after full medical treatment or attention. The

improvement factor is about 1/3 the normal time of recovery by some thousands of test

cases.

Such auditing is done by a usual Dianetic procedure.

In addition to the above assists there is regular Dianetic auditing which handles

chronic discomforts and prevents future illness as well as improving the state of wellbeing

of a person.

The mechanisms of the mind revealed in Dianetics are of great use to the field of

medicine.

They are easy and quick to apply.

About one month's training is all that is necessary to acquaint an otherwise

educated and intelligent person with the fundamentals and skills necessary to assists.

Considerably more time of course is necessary to train a skilled Scientology

auditor, but this is not the subject of this paper.

There is no conflict of interest between any healing profession and Dianetics.

Dianetic materials and papers are fully available.

There is a conflict between Dianetics and political practices such as psychiatry

since electric shock, brain operations and general degradation of the person may

prevent the patient's recovery by Dianetics.

As answers exist now for insanity there is no reason to continue Medieval or

Fascist solutions to the problem of the psychosomatically ill or the insane and we are

doing everything in our power against fantastic opposition to end the torture and killing

of the insane regardless of the politically "desirable" ends envisioned by some groups.

Dianetics, like any other true treatment, like aspirin or penicillin, was originally

designed to handle the apparent basic cause of psychosomatic illness. The first research

was intended to help allied prisoners of war degraded by the Japanese and Chinese

prison camps and who after VJ day were transferred to Oak Knoll Naval Hospital.

Later, in 1954, in a much more advanced state of development, Dianetics was

successfully employed to eradicate the results of allied prisoners of the Korean war

who had been subjected to Russian brainwashing. The subject has been improved,

made easier to teach and apply and its results bettered continually over a total period of

29 years. It has in 1969 been fully updated as Standard Dianetics. It is very successful

and is in very broad use over the world.

S & D—THE MISSED ITEM

There are four points I want to get across to you.

1. ILLNESS = ONLY PTS

2. ONLY PTS = ILLNESS

3. ONLY A PTS CONDITION CAN MAKE A GRADE V (or any grade)

SICK

4. A BAD S & D MAKES A PERSON SICK

Get it? GOOD!!

Now, if a person who has had an S & D gets sick, what do you know? You

know that:

(a) They are a PTS

(b) The S & D was not properly done

(c) An item was missed

NOTE: The missed item may be on a list that was made 2 or 3 years ago.

On the HCOB 5th February 1966 “S & D WARNING”, I clearly stated that “It is

the action of nearly finding the right one that may make the pc ill”. One has restimulated

the charge of the RIGHT item, but, has found and okayed the WRONG item.

A bad S&D is DEADLY.

A bad S & D can cause a dangerous physical condition. A bad S & D can land a

pc in hospital (I know of two such cases where it did).

So please! PLEASE!! get this, it is so very important. Always, repeat, ALWAYS

look for the MISSED item on a priorly done list when the pc gets sick.

Know your S & D bulletins, know your listing and nulling bulletin—

THOROUGHLY—and you won’t go wrong.

Expanded Dianetics Series 4

(Adds C/S Series 76 to HGDS checksheet)

SUPPRESSED PCS AND PTS TECH

(PTS means Potential Trouble Source which itself means a person connected to a

Suppressive Person.)

As the Dianetic Specialist (HGDS) is often called upon to handle pcs who are not

well, it is vital that he knows all about and can use “PTS Tech”.

All sick persons are PTS.

All pcs who rollercoaster (regularly lose gains) are PTS.

Suppressive persons are themselves PTS to themselves.

If a Dianetic Specialist does not know this, have reality upon it and use it, he will

have loses on pcs he need not have.

There is considerable Administrative Tech connected with this subject of PTS and

there is a special Rundown which handles PTS people.

They get handled if the auditor knows his PTS tech, if he audits well and if he

uses both the auditing and Administrative Tech to handle.

The Administrative Tech requires an interview, usually by the Director of

Processing or Ethics Officer and the person is required to handle the PTS situation itself

before being audited. A check for stability is also made after being audited on the PTS

Rundown.

For this reason, HCO B 17 April 72 and all the checksheet of HCO P/L 31 May

71 must be fully known to the Dianetic Specialist.

HCO B 17 April 72 is also C/S Series 76 so as to be sure that Case Supervisors

handle the Admin and C/Sing correctly.

PTS HANDLING

PTS Pack (PTS = Potential Trouble Source)

There are two stable data which anyone has to have, understand and KNOW ARE

TRUE in order to obtain results in handling the person connected to suppressives.

These data are:

1. That all illness in greater or lesser degree and all foul-ups stem directly and only from a PTS condition.

2. That getting rid of the condition requires three basic actions: A. Discover. B. Handle or disconnect.

Persons called upon to handle PTS people can do so very easily, far more easily

than they believe. Their basic stumbling block is thinking that there are exceptions or

that there is other tech or that the two above data have modifiers or are not sweeping.

The moment a person who is trying to handle PTSs gets persuaded there are other

conditions or reasons or tech, he is at once lost and will lose the game and not obtain

results. And this is very too bad because it is not difficult and the results are there to be

obtained.

To turn someone who may be PTS over to an auditor just to have him

mechanically audited may not be enough. In the first place this person may not have a

clue what is meant by PTS and may be missing all manner of technical data on life and

may be so overwhelmed by a suppressive person or group that he is quite incoherent.

Thus just mechanically doing a process may miss the whole show as it misses the

person’s understanding of why it is being done.

A PTS person is rarely psychotic. But all psychotics are PTS if only to

themselves. A PTS person may be in a state of deficiency or pathology which prevents

a ready recovery, but at the same time he will not fully recover unless the PTS

condition is also handled. For he became prone to deficiency or pathological illness

because he was PTS. And unless the condition is relieved, no matter what medication

or nutrition he may be given, he might not recover and certainly will not recover

permanently. This seems to indicate that there are “other illnesses or reasons for illness

besides being PTS”. To be sure there are deficiencies and illnesses just as there are

accidents and injuries. But strangely enough the person himself precipitates them

because being PTS predisposes him to them. In a more garbled way, the medicos and

nutritionists are always talking about “stress” causing illness. Lacking full tech they yet

have an inkling that this is so because they see it is somehow true. They cannot handle

it. Yet they recognize it, and they state that it is a senior situation to various illnesses

and accidents. Well, we have the tech of this in more ways than one.

What is this thing called “stress”? It is more than the medico defines it—he

usually says it comes from operational or physical shock and in this he has too limited a

view.

A person under stress is actually under a suppression on one or more dynamics.

If that suppression is located and the person handles or disconnects, the condition

diminishes. If he also has all the engrams and ARC Breaks, problems, overts and

209

withholds audited out triple flow and if ALL such areas of suppression are thus

handled, the person would recover from anything caused by “stress”.

Usually the person has insufficient understanding of life or any dynamic to grasp

his own situation. He is confused. He believes all his illnesses are true because they

occur in such heavy books!

At some time he was predisposed to illness or accidents. When a serious

suppression then occurred he suffered a precipitation or occurrence of the accident or

illness, and then with repeated similar suppressions on the same chain, the illness or

tendency to accidents became prolonged or chronic.

To say then that a person is PTS to his current environment would be very limited

as a diagnosis. If he continues to do or be something to which the suppressive person

or group objected he may become or continue to be ill or have accidents.

Actually the problem of PTS is not very complicated. Once you have grasped the

two data first given, the rest of it becomes simply an analysis of how they apply to this

particular person. A PTS person can be markedly helped in three ways: (a) gaining an

understanding of the tech of the condition (b) discovering to what or to whom he is

PTS (c) handling or disconnecting.

Someone with the wish or duty to find and handle PTSs has an additional prior

step: He must know how to recognize a PTS and how to handle them when recognized.

Thus it is rather a waste of time to engage in this hunt unless one has been checked out

on all the material on suppressives and PTSs and grasps it without misunderstoods. In

other words the first step of the person is to get a grasp of the subject and its tech. This

is not difficult to do; it may be a bit more difficult to learn to run an E-Meter and

considerably more difficult to learn how to list for items, but there again this is possible

and is much easier than trying to grope around guessing.

With this step done, a person has no real trouble recognizing PTS people and can

have success in handling them which is very gratifying and rewarding. Let us consider

the easiest level of approach:

i) Give the person the simpler HCOBs on the subject and let him study them

so that he knows the elements like “PTS” and “Suppressive”. He may just cognite right

there and be much better. It has happened.

ii) Have him discuss the illness or accident or condition, without much

prodding or probing, that he thinks now may be the result of suppression. He will

usually tell you it is right here and now or was a short time ago and will be all set to

explain it (without any relief) as stemming from his current environment or a recent

one. If you let it go at that he would simply be a bit unhappy and not get well as he is

discussing usually a late lock that has a lot of earlier material below it.

iii) Ask when he recalls first having that illness or having such accidents. He

will at once begin to roll this back and realize that it has happened before. You don’t

have to be auditing him as he is all too willing to talk about this in a most informal

manner. He will get back to some early this-lifetime point usually.

iv) Now ask him who it was. He will usually tell you promptly. And, as you

are not really auditing him and he isn’t going backtrack and you are not trying to do

more than key him out, you don’t probe any further.

v) You will usually find that he has named a person to whom he is still

connected! So you ask him whether he wants to handle or disconnect. Now as the

sparks will really fly in his life if he dramatically disconnects and if he can’t see how he

can, you persuade him to begin to handle on a gradient scale. This may consist of

imposing some slight discipline on him such as requiring him to actually answer his

mail or write the person a pleasant good roads good weather note or to realistically look

at how he estranged them. In short what is required in the handling is a low gradient.

210

All you are trying to do is MOVE THE PTS PERSON FROM EFFECT OVER TO

SLIGHT GENTLE CAUSE.

vi) Check with the person again, if he is handling, and coach him along,

always at a gentle good roads and good weather level and no H E and R (Human

Emotion and Reaction) if you please.

That is a simple handling. You can get complexities such as a person being PTS

to an unknown person in his immediate vicinity that he may have to find before he can

handle or disconnect. You can find people who can’t remember more than a few years

back. You can find anything you can find in a case. But simple handling ends when it

looks pretty complex. And that’s when you call in the auditor.

But this simple handling will get you quite a few stars in your crown. You will be

amazed to find that while some of them don’t instantly recover, medication, vitamins,

minerals will now work when before they wouldn’t. You may also get some instant

recovers but realize that if they don’t you have not failed.

The auditor can do “3 S&Ds” after this with much more effect as he isn’t working

with a completely uninformed person.

“3 S&Ds” only fail because of wrong items or because the auditor did not then

put in triple rudiments on the items and then audit them out as engrams triple flow.

A being is rather complex. He may have a lot of sources of suppression. And it

may take a lot of very light auditing to get him up to where he can do work on

suppressives since these were, after all, the source of his overwhelm. And what he did

to THEM might be more important than what they did to HIM but unless you unburden

HIM he may not get around to realizing that.

You can run into a person who can only be handled by Expanded Dianetics.

But you have made an entrance and you have stirred things up and gotten him

more aware and just that way you will find he is more at cause.

His illness or proneness to accidents may not be slight. You may succeed only to

the point where he now has a chance, by nutrition, vitamins, minerals, medication,

treatment, and above all, auditing, of getting well. Unless you jogged this condition, he

had no chance at all: for becoming PTS is the first thing that happened to him on the

subject of illness or accidents.

Further, if the person has had a lot of auditing and yet isn’t progressing too well,

your simple handling may all of a sudden cause him to line up his case.

So do not underestimate what you or an auditor can do for a PTS. And don’t sell

PTS tech short or neglect it. And don’t continue to transfer or push off or even worse

tolerate PTS conditions in people.

You CAN do something about it.

And so can they.

Injuries, operations, delivery of babies, severe illnesses and periods of intense

emotional shock all deserve to be handled with thorough and complete assists.

Medical examination and diagnosis should be sought where needed, and where

treatment is routinely successful, medical treatment should be obtained. As an assist can at

times cover up an actual injury or broken bone, no chances should be taken, especially if

the condition does not easily respond. In other words where something is merely thought

to be a slight sprain, to be on the safe side an X-ray should be obtained, particularly if it

does not at once respond. An assist is not a substitute for medical treatment but is

complementary to it. It is even doubtful if full healing can be accomplished by medical

treatment alone and it is certain that an assist greatly speeds recovery. In short, one should

realize that physical healing does not take into account the being and the repercussion on

the spiritual beingness of the person.

Injury and illness are PREDISPOSED by the spiritual state of the person. They are

PRECIPITATED by the being himself as a manifestation of his current spiritual

condition. And they are PROLONGED by any failure to fully handle the spiritual factors

associated with them.

The causes of PREDISPOSITION, PRECIPITATION and PROLONGATION are

basically the following:

1. Postulates.

2. Engrams.

3. Secondaries.

4. ARC Breaks with the environment, situations, others or the body part.

5. Problems.

6. Overt Acts.

7. Withholds.

8. Out of communicationness.

189

The purely physical facts of injuries, illnesses and stresses are themselves

incapacitating and do themselves often require physical analysis and treatment by a

doctor or nutritionist. These could be briefly catalogued as:

A. Physical damage to structure.

B. Disease of a pathological nature.

C. Inadequacies of structure.

D. Excessive structure.

E. Nutritional errors.

F. Nutritional inadequacies.

G. Vitamin and bio-compound excesses.

H. Vitamin and bio-compound deficiencies.

I. Mineral excesses.

J. Mineral deficiencies.

K. Structural malfunction.

L. Erroneous examination.

M. Erroneous diagnosis.

N. Erroneous structural treatment.

O. Erroneous medication.

There is another group which belongs to both the spiritual and physical divisions.

These are:

i. Allergies.

ii. Addictions.

iii. Habits.

iv. Neglect.

v. Decay.

Any of these things in any of the three groups can be a cause of non-optimum

personal existence.

We are not discussing here the full handling of any of these groups or what

optimum state can be attained or maintained. But it should be obvious that there is a level

below which life is not very tolerable. How well a person can be or how efficient or how

active is another subject entirely.

Certainly life is not very tolerable to a person who has been injured or ill, to a

woman who has just delivered a baby, to a person who has just suffered a heavy

emotional shock. And there is no reason a person should remain in such a low state,

particularly for weeks, months or years when he or she, could be remarkably ASSISTED

to recover in hours, days or weeks.

It is in fact a sort of practised cruelty to insist by neglect that a person continue on

in such a state when one can learn and practise and obtain relief for such a person.

We are mainly concerned with the first group, 1-8. The group is not listed in the

order that it is done but in the order that it has influence upon the being.

The idea has grown that one handles injuries with touch assists only. This is true for

someone who as an auditor has only a smattering of Scientology. It is true for someone

in such pain or state of case (which would have to be pretty bad) that he cannot respond

to actual auditing.

But a Scientologist really has no business “having only a smattering” of auditing

skills that could save his or the lives of others. And the case is very rare who cannot

experience proper auditing.

The actual cause of not handling such conditions is, then, to be found as iv.

NEGLECT. And where there is Neglect, v. DECAY is very likely to follow.

One does not have to be a medical doctor to take someone to a medical doctor.

And one does not have to be a medical doctor to observe that medical treatment may not

be helping the patient. And one does not have to be a medical doctor to handle things

caused spiritually by the being himself.

190

Just as there are two sides to healing—the spiritual and the structural or physical,

there are also two states that can be spiritually attained. The first of these states might be

classified as “humanly tolerable”. Assists come under this heading. The second is

spiritually improved. Grade auditing comes under this second heading.

Any minister (and this has been true as long as there has been a subject called

religion) is bound to relieve his fellow being of anguish. There are many ways a minister

can do this.

An assist is not engaging in healing. It is certainly not engaging in treatment. What

it is doing is ASSISTING THE INDIVIDUAL TO HEAL HIMSELF OR BE HEALED BY

ANOTHER AGENCY BY REMOVING HIS REASONS FOR PRECIPITATING, AND

PROLONGING HIS CONDITION AND LESSENING HIS PREDISPOSITION TO

FURTHER INJURE HIMSELF OR REMAIN IN AN INTOLERABLE CONDITION.

This is entirely outside the field of “healing” as envisioned by the medical doctor

and by actual records of results is very, very far beyond the capability of psychology,

psychiatry and “mental treatment” as practised by them.

In short, the assist is strictly and entirely in the field of the spirit and is the

traditional province of religion.

A minister should realize the power which lies in his hands and his potential skills

when trained. He has this to give in the presence of suffering: he can make life tolerable.

He can also shorten a term of recovery and may even make recovery possible when it

might not be otherwise.

When a minister confronts someone who has been injured or ill, operated upon or

who has suffered a grave emotional shock, he should be equipped to do and should do

the following:

A CONTACT ASSIST where possible and where indicated until the person has

reestablished his communication with the physical universe site. To FN.

A TOUCH ASSIST until the person has reestablished communication with the

physical part or parts affected. To FN.

HANDLE ANY ARC BREAK that might have existed at the time a) with the

environment, b) with another, c) with others, d) with himself, e) with the body part or the

body, and f) with any failure to recover at once. Each to FN.

HANDLE ANY PROBLEM the person may have had a) at the time of illness or

injury, b) subsequently due to his or her condition. Each to FN.

HANDLE ANY OVERT ACT the person may feel he or she committed a) to self, b)

to the body, c) to another, and d) to others. Each to FN.

HANDLE ANY WITHHOLD a) the person might have had at the time, b) any

subsequent withhold, and c) any having to withhold the body from work or others or the

environment due to being physically unable to approach it.

HANDLE ANY SECONDARY, which is to say emotional reactions, before, during

or after the situation. This must be run from the first intimation something was wrong or

going to happen or being told something had happened. This is by chain to FN. And

then Flow 2 to FN and then Flow 3 to FN.

HANDLE ANY ENGRAM of actual physical duress. Run Flow 1 by chain to FN.

Then Flow 2 to FN. Then Flow 3 to FN. It is understood here that Flow One was the

physical incident itself, not necessarily something done to the person but as something

that happened to him or her.

POSTULATE TWO-WAY COMM. This is two-way comm on the subject of “any

decision to be hurt” or some such wording. This is done only if the person has not

191

already discovered that he had decisions connected to the incident. It is carried to FN.

One must be careful not to invalidate the person.

Where a person is injured, given a contact or touch assist and then medical

examination and treatment, he is given the remainder as soon as he is able to be audited.

The drug “five days” does not need to apply. But where the person has been given an

assist over drugs, one must later come back to the case when he is off drugs and run the

drug part out or at least make sure that nothing was submerged by the drugs. It is not

uncommon for a person to be oblivious of certain parts of a treatment or operation at the

time of initial auditing, only to have a missing piece of the incident pop up days, months

or even years later. THIS is the reason injuries or operations occasionally seem to persist

despite a full assist: a piece of it was left unhandled due to a drugged condition during

the operation; such bits may come off unexpectedly in routine auditing on some other

apparently disrelated chain.

It can happen that a person is in the midst of some grade auditing at the time of an

injury or illness or receiving an emotional shock. The question arises as to whether or not

to disrupt the grade auditing to handle the situation. It is a difficult question. But

certainly the person cannot go on with grade auditing while upset or ill. The usual.

answer is to give a full assist and repair the case to bridge it back into the grade auditing.

The question however may be complicated in that some error in the grade auditing is also

sitting there, not to cause the illness or accident but to complicate the assist. This question

is handled fully only by study of the case by a competent Case Supervisor. The point is

not to let the person go on suffering while time is consumed making a decision.

SUMMARY

Religion exists in no small part to handle the upsets and anguish of life. These

include spiritual duress by reason of physical conditions.

Ministers long before the Apostles had as a part of their duties the ministering to

the spiritual anguish of their people. They have concentrated upon spiritual uplift and

betterment. But where physical suffering impeded this course, they have acted. To devote

themselves only to the alleviation of physical duress is of course to attest that the physical

body is more important than the spiritual beingness of the person which, of course, it is

not. But physical anguish can so distract a being that he deserts any aspirations of

betterment and begins to seek some cessation of his suffering. The specialty of the

medical doctor is the curing of physical disease or non-optimum physical conditions. In

some instances he can do so. It is no invasion of his province to assist the patient to

greater healing potential. And ills that are solely spiritual in nature are not medical.

The “psych-iatrist” and “psych-ologist” on the other hand took their very names

from religion since “psyche” means soul. They, by actual statistics, are not as successful

as priests in relieving mental anguish. But they modernly seek to do so by using drugs or

hypnotism or physical means. They damage more than they help.

The minister has a responsibility to his people and those about him to relieve

suffering. He has many ways to do this. He is quite successful in doing so and he does

not need or use drugs or hypnotism or shock or surgery or violence. Until his people are

at a level where they have no need of physical things, he has as a duty preventing their

spiritual or physical decay by relieving where he can their suffering.

His primary method of doing so is the ASSIST.

As the knowledge of how to do them exists and as the skill is easily acquired, he

actually has no right to neglect those for whose well-being he is responsible, as only then

can he lead them to higher levels of spiritual attainment.

Executive

Hats

IMPORTANT

Executive Series 12

ETHICS AND EXECUTIVES

Any person holding an Executive Post (head of Department or above) is deemed an

EXECUTIVE.

Evaluation has revealed that the breakdown in many orgs is a failure on the part of

Executives to wear their Ethics and Justice hats.

It has been found that below Administrative Whys there is usually an Ethics

situation as well which unhandled, causes the Administrative Why not to function or raise

stats.

In an area which is downstat, it is the duty of an Executive to investigate and find

any out-ethics situation and get it corrected.

Ethics is a personal thing in relation to a group. Unethical people are those who do

not have Ethics in on themselves personally.

It is the responsibility of the Executive to see to it that persons under his control and

in his area get their personal ethics in and keep them in.

Dishonesty, false reports, an out-ethics personal life, should be looked for and by

persuasion, should be corrected.

When an Executive sees such things he or she must do all he can to get the person

to get his own Ethics in.

When an area is downstat the Executive must at once suspect an out-ethics scene

with one or more of the personnel and must investigate and persuade the person to be

more honest and ethical and correct the out-ethics condition found.

If this does not correct and if the person or area remains downstat, the Executive

must declare the person or area in Danger and apply HCO PL 9 Apr 72 “CORRECT

DANGER CONDITION HANDLING”.

The situation, if it does not correct, thereafter becomes a matter of full group justice

with Courts and Comm Evs. Persons whose Ethics have remained out must be replaced.

The seniors of an Executive are bound to enforce this policy and to use it on any

Executives whose personal ethics are out and who fail to apply it. It will be found that

those who do not apply this policy letter have themselves certain dishonesties or out-ethics

situations.

IT IS VITAL TO ANY ORGANIZATION, TO BE STRONG AND EFFECTIVE, TO

BE ETHICAL.

THE MOST IMPORTANT ZONE OF ETHICAL CONDUCT IN AN

ORGANIZATION IS AT OR NEAR THE TOP.

100

Ethical failure at the top or just below it can destroy an organization and make it

downstat.

Historical examples are many.

THEREFORE IT IS POLICY THAT AN EXECUTIVE MUST KEEP ETHICS IN

ON HIMSELF AND THOSE BELOW HIM OR BE DISCIPLINED OR COMM EVED

AND REMOVED FROM ANY POST OF AUTHORITY AND SOMEONE FOUND WHO

IS HIMSELF ETHICAL AND CAN KEEP ETHICS IN ON THOSE UNDER HIS

AUTHORITY.

The Charge in any such case for a staff member or Executive is FAILURE TO

UPHOLD OR SET AN EXAMPLE OF HIGH ETHICAL STANDARDS.

Such offenses are composed of:

1. DISHONESTY.

2. Use of false statements to cover up a situation.

3. Representing a scene to be different than it actually is to cover up crimes and escape

discipline.

4. Irregular 2D connections and practices.

5. Drug or alcoholic addiction.

6. Encouraging out-ethics.

7. Condoning or failing to effectively handle an out-ethics situation in self or others as

an In Charge, Officer or Executive.

TECHNICAL

People with out-ethics withholds cannot see. This is proven by the brilliant return of

perception of the environment in people audited effectively and at length on such

processes.

Such people also seek to place a false environment there and actually see a false

environment.

People whose Ethics are low will enturbulate and upset a group as they are seeking

to justify their harmful acts against the group. And this leads to more harmful acts.

Out-ethics people go rapidly into Treason against the group.

A person whose Ethics have been out over a long period goes “out of valence”.

They are “not themselves”.

Happiness is only attained by those who are HONEST with themselves and others.

A group prospers only when each member in it has his own personal ethics in.

Even in a PTS (Potential Trouble Source) person there must have been out-ethics

conduct toward the suppressive personality he or she is connected with for the person to

have become PTS in the first place.

People who are physically ill are PTS and are out-ethics toward the person or thing

they are PTS to!

Thus a group to be happy and well, and for the group to prosper and endure, its

individual members must have their own Ethics in.

It is up to the Executive or Officer to see that this is the case and to DO the actions

necessary to make it come about and the group an Ethical group.

PTS RD ADDITION

(Refers to PTS RD HCOB 9 Dec 71)

The only reasons a PTS RD does not work are:

C/S Error: 1. Not doing one at all.

C/S Error: 2. Doing one in the middle of another RD.

C/S Error: 3. Doing one without set-up.

C/S Error: 4. The person was not PTS—which is to say was not chronically ill or roller coaster

and the items didn't read.

Auditor Error: 5. The RD was badly run auditor-wise. R3R was bad, metering poor, ruds not

correctly or fully done.

Auditor & C/S Error: 6. The RD was quickie, only doing step (a) and brushing

C/S Error: 7. Even though the whole RD was done fully, there remained on the case an

undetected additional person or thing to which the pc was PTS.

The rules of PTS are

A PERSON WHO ROLLER COASTERS IS ALWAYS PTS.

A PERSON WHO IS CHRONICALLY ILL ALWAYS IS PTS.

A PTS RUNDOWN THAT DOES NOT WORK HAS NOT BEEN DONE AS PER 1 TO 7 ABOVE.

The remedies to the above are

1. Do it.

2. Pgm it in correct sequence.

3. Set the case up properly so it is running well and past errors handled.

4. Establish how well the person holds his gains before Pgming one. If any Q at all, do the RD.

5. Cram the auditor on TRs, Metering, R3R drills and ruds. Do L4B, GF Method 5 Handle, L3B

on the pc and redo accordingly.

6. Complete the RD.

7. 2wc "What is your attention on?" to F/N. On PTS RD fly all ruds single; L&N "On the PTS

Rundown what being or thing was missed?"; R3R Triple on it; fly all ruds and overts on it

triple; if all not very okay now 2wc "What other subject or people might have been overlooked

on the PTS RD?" Handle with R3R Triple and Ruds Triple plus overts.

A PTS RD always works. If it works with a relapse there is an error in it as in the numbered

paras above.

THIS IS VITAL TECH TO THE PC. IT MAKES THE MOST DIFFICULT CASES FLY IF

IT IS DONE RIGHT.

TECH DIV PRIMARY RUNDOWN

The Primary Correction Rundown in HCO B 30 March 72 is the rundown given

in the Department of Personnel Enhancement in the Qualifications Division.

The PRIMARY RUNDOWN is given in the Tech Division as NORMAL

DIVISIONAL ACTIVITY.

PRIMARY RUNDOWN HGC

1. The student is given any needful case handling or repair if his TA is high or low

in accordance with his state of case.

This is only done if the person’s meter is such as to make word clearing difficult

or if the person is in obvious need of case handling.

Aside from TA, “obvious need of case handling” includes a bad OCA or APA,

Drugs and PTS.

If the Student has been on drugs he must be given a Drug Rundown.

If he is PTS he must be handled in Ethics and given a PTS Rundown.

If the student is ill he should be handled by Dianetics.

An R/Sing person should be handled by Expanded Dianetics.

2. WORD CLEARING METHOD 1 is done by normal word clearing procedures in

the HGC either as part of his normal auditing or as a student checksheet.

This is carried to an F/Ning list on the final assessment.

The Word Clearing Correction List is used at the slightest sign of trouble.

The student must have F/N throughout on the final full assessment of the WC

Corr List if used and the final full WC Method I list and an F/N VGIs at the examiner

for this step to be considered complete.

DEPT OF TRAINING

The student is now qualified to enter training.

3. STUDY TAPES AND STUDENT HAT. The student’s first training step may be

either the Study Tapes (or authorized transcript or translated tape but not notes) or the

Student Hat. It will be found that course facilities may be better employed where a

student is allowed to do either as the first step, so long as he does both one after the

other.

(a) The Study Tapes are played first for the words themselves. One may not just

play the tape and list the words and then look them up. This is an exact action. The only

variation of this will come when a full list of these words is issued in alphabetical

order. Each is looked up the first time it appears on the tape. The word is USED in

several sentences. A grammar such as “English Made Simple” should be to hand. Good

BIG dictionaries should be to hand. And a photographic dictionary or glossary.

The tape is then played through. A Method 4 check is made. If there is any read

that is a true read (not a false surge) on the question, “Was anything not fully

understood?” the word is hunted down and defined. And then the whole tape has to be

done again.

In this way, reel by reel (or chapter by chapter when transcribed), the Study

Tapes are done.

An M4 Meter check is made on the whole tape series.

The person is sent to the Student Examiner.

If there is a flunk of the exam the student goes to Cramming.

(b) The Student Hat is done like the Study Tapes.

Each item (P/L, HCO B etc) in it is read through once, looking up each word the

first time it appears and using it in sentences.

At the end of each item the student is checked with Method 4 as on the tapes.

And if he misses one word he does the whole item again.

In this way he goes through the whole hat.

Now he reads the whole hat for sense.

Each time an ACTION is called for in an item (demo or clay demo) he must do

that item correctly.

He now reads the whole hat through using a Demo Kit continually as he goes

along.

He is again given an M4 check and if there is no read he goes to the Student

Examiner.

If he fails, he goes to Cramming.

If he passes he may do the Study Tapes if he has not done them or he having

passed those is a product.

THE PRODUCT AT THIS POINT IS A STUDENT WHO KNOWS HOW TO

STUDY AND WILL BE ABLE TO USE WHAT HE STUDIES.

This concludes the Primary Rundown as given in the Tech Division.

The Tech Division does not repair the student.

He can be ordered to Cramming however for the single action of a Word Clearing

Correction List in case errors in Method 4 or Method 3 have been made or the student

has gone beyond the metering ability of a supervisor.

Qual at its option in such cases may order a full Primary Correction Rundown but

must give a Word Clearing Correction List first before determining this.

S AND D WARNING

Search and Discovery, done incorrectly (incorrect SP found) can make a preclear

ill within a week or two after.

Assessment is a very proper skill. There is a great deal written on it and many

tapes.

The common errors of assessment (aside from the usual Gross Auditing Errors) are:

1. Too short a list

2. Too long a list

3. Clumsy or improper meter handling

4. List getting suppressed

5. Item getting invalidated

6. Pc being allowed too much Itsa

7. Pc getting ARC Broken by under or over-listing

8. Auditor not letting the pc have his item

9. Whole list going live because the item was by-passed earlier on the list

10. Auditor not looking for good and bad indicators to see if he was correct in

his assessment.

When the right SP is found the good indicators flood in and the pc does not cave

in in 36 to 72 hours.

The bug in S & D is that one can almost get the right item. An item can be found

that is nearly the right one. If the nearly right one is accepted the pc will be doubtfully

more cheerful and may insist this is it. The pc however is still not quite sure. Inevitably

that is the sign of a nearly right item.

The real reaction to the correct person is an “Of Course!” no doubt about it

reaction.

It is the action of nearly finding the right one that may make the pc ill in the next

few days or a week. One has restimulated the by-passed charge of the right one without

finding it.

Remember that the real Suppressive Person (SP) was the one that wove a

dangerous environment around the pc. To find that person is to open up the pc’s

present time perception or space. It’s like pulling a wrapping of wool off the pc.

136

The SP persuaded or caused the pc to believe the environment was dangerous and

that it was always dangerous and so made the pc pull in and occupy less space and

reach less.

When the SP is really located and indicated the pc feels this impulse not to reach

diminish and so his space opens up.

The difference between a safe environment and a dangerous environment is only

that a person is willing to reach and expand in a safe environment and reaches less and

contracts in a dangerous environment.

An SP wants the other person to reach less. Sometimes this is done by forcing the

person to reach into danger and get hurt so that the person will thereafter reach less.

The SP wants smaller, less powerful beings. The SP thinks that if another

became powerful that one would attack the SP.

The SP is totally insecure and is battling constantly in covert ways to make others

less powerful and less able.

Scientology flies into the teeth of an SP. One will go to the most extraordinary

lengths to try to injure Scientologists or an organization or a staff member.

But SPs existed long before Scientology and finding the basic SP around the pc

just because of Scientology or the pc is a Scientologist is in actual fact unlikely.

Childhood is the most fertile area in which to locate the SP on the case. A child is

weak and at the mercy of adults. It is this fact alone that gave all the cures Freud ever

stumbled onto. The analyst accidentally located an SP when his work was successful.

But then he proceeded to overrun and restimulate the patient without erasing. In other

words he would not let the patient have his item. An hour with a meter in the hands of

an expert auditor who can assess correctly will produce everything the analyst or Freud

ever hoped to achieve and will do it invariably compared to the small results analysts

did achieve.

But if you get one almost right, and not get the really correct SP, then you get the

same phenomena that dogged the analyst-the pc gets better for a moment and collapses.

I am not saying you can permanently injure persons. The analyst techniques

operated far more restimulatively than our S & D. They made the person talk about it

for years!

But you can still give a pc a nasty cold if you miss on an S & D.

So don’t miss.

Do it correctly.

Find the correct SP.

It’s all correct if you assess by the book—complete list, not too long or too short.

Correct item on the list. Good indicators then in. And no relapse for at least 2 weeks.

That’s how a real S & D is done.

PHYSICALLY ILL PCS

AND PRE OTS

(with a note on Drugs)

One can very easily go to extremes on mental illness vs physical illness.

One school says all trouble comes from physical illness.

Another says it all comes from mental illness.

The psychiatrist mixes the two and says all mental illness is physical.

It is time every auditor, particularly Class VIIIs, took a hard look at this area.

The body is capable of having physical illness, acute (momentary) or chronic

(continual). Broken bones, pinched nerves, diseases can any of them occur to a body

independent of any mental or spiritual action.

The mind or spirit can predispose the illness or injury. By this is meant a person can

be distraught and have an accident, or decide to die and get a disease.

But the disease or injury when he's got it is a body circumstance and responds best

to skilled medical (ordinary usual, put on a tourniquet, set a bone, give a shot) treatment.

On a sick or injured person, you can reduce the time of healing or recovery by

removing the spiritual or mental upset, providing the person can be audited, but usually

after effective physical treatment. The facts are real enough. Auditing a person with a

broken leg after it is set and he is comfortable, to remove the engram of the accident or

treatment and the earlier "reason" he or she was distraught or had the accident, can

improve the bone knitting time by as much as 2/3rds by actual test. This would be six

weeks down to two weeks.

But the bone has to be set!

A body is a biological object. It has all manner of internal communication systems

and organized interrelated functions.

Now if you tried to audit a preclear when he was acutely ill, you would find him

hard to audit, confused and distracted and unable to follow commands. He may become

overwhelmed easily. He certainly is not likely to respond properly. Because the body is

sending all sorts of pain or discomfort messages and confusions, it is very much in his

way. Two things are going on at the same time—his case as a spiritual being, his body as a

distracting pain or sensation object.

The pc assigns the body to his case or his case to his body.

You have to get the body out of the attention area to some degree before anything

helpful usually occurs by way of auditing.

Now let us take the pc with a long term illness. He has been sick with something

since the age of 8. He really doesn't know he's sick physically. He blames it all on his own

case.

In a lot of cases we audit him and he has enough relief to then get physically well.

For he was mentally or spiritually suppressing his body.

312

These successes (and they are numerous) could cause us to do an all mental

concentration and lead some to insist all illness was from the mind. This makes some

make the mistake of omitting physical examination and treatment in all cases. Certain

schools of healing in the past got the entire field in disrepute by assuming and stating and

acting on just that.

When you find a pc who does not easily respond, whether he answers up to 7 cases

"Physically ill" or not, you sure better get him to the nearest clinic for a thorough physical

examination including head and spine X-rays and get him examined pathologically. For

you will usually find he is physically ill, in suppressed pain or discomfort. There are cures

for a lot of these things now and not requiring "exploratory" operations either.

Don't throw away all the grades of auditing on him. He's sick. Physically.

That's why you do a White Form. A long history of accident and illness should

prepare you to be alert and to send him to a clinic if his response to auditing is the least

bit poor.

Then when you have the physical side of it in hand, audit him at assist level.

When he is well give him his grades.

Don't force auditing into physical healing. It works much of the time. Special types

of auditing (running out injuries, etc) assist healing markedly. That doesn't mean you

should avoid all medical treatment!

"Failed cases" are medically ill or injured cases. Without exception. So why fail.

There are medical doctors and clinics. There are standard, usual treatments. You don't

have to buy "exploratories" and questionable actions. These are done only when the

medical doctor can't find out either. When this impasse occurs, start doing assists or look

for engrams.

There are some bizarre or strange postoperative (after operation) or post injury

(after injury) conditions which do surrender miraculously to auditing. A suppurating

incision (operation cut that remains open and unhealing), a bone that will not heal after

having a plate put on it, such things usually surrender to auditing. These facts should be

used but they do not contradict that medical treatment was needed in the first place.

The psychiatrist is an example of the other extreme to spiritual healing. Instead of

"all mind" he is saying "all physical".

Holding either extreme produces failures.

The psychiatrist got into his "all physical" by a sensing that insanity symptoms

seemed to resemble persons in pain or delirium.

In these cases the stress of physical suffering is pouring back into and

overwhelming the mind.

After considerable study on this, I realized that an error could have been made out

of a statement "all insanity is physical".

This is probably the case in the large percentage of the insane. But from this one

cannot then say "all mental trouble is physical" because that can be demonstrated as not

true. We see it as easily as in a case of a person falling ill on the receipt of bad news, who

then gets good news and gets well. The great Voltaire, on his deathbed, received news that

he had been awarded the Legion of Honor, after a lifetime of being scorned by

Authority. He promptly got up, put on his clothes and went down to receive the award.

In the case of insanity having physical causes, one could discover this, say it and be

promptly misunderstood in this way. The sufferer is in a general agony from a nerve long

ago crushed. This actual pain is distributed from its point of concentration to the whole of

the nervous system. The person cannot think, looks dazed, cannot work or

313

act. An operation removes the pressure causing the condition. The person is then "sane"

in that he can perform the actions of life.

After a few successes of this nature, the psychiatrist leaps to the conclusion all

mental trouble is physical. He teaches some student saying "all mental trouble is

physical". The student goes off, tries to figure it out, dreams up a special insanity virus or

"genes" or a special illness called "insanity". He then resorts to all manner of odd and

often brutal treatments. By cutting or shocking a nerve channel one can stop the pain

messages but such actions lay in new complications which usually terminate in premature

if not immediate death or injury.

This tells one why tranquilizers (psychotropic drugs) make a patient rational or at

least able to function for a short while. They too have their side effects. Usually all they

do is, like aspirin, reduce the pain.

Patients do not always know they hurt. They suppress the pain or sensation. It seems

normal to them or "life". When they receive a distressing experience or have an accident

they cease to suppress and may go "insane", which is to say, become continuously

overwhelmed by pain or unwanted sensation. They cannot think or act rationally. They

may even be insane only during periods of the day or month that coincide with the time

of the accident. But they are in physical distress.

As they cannot eat or sleep, their condition worsens by exhaustion and they may go

into various states including a deathlike motionlessness or actually die.

The CORRECT ACTION ON AN INSANE PATIENT IS A FULL SEARCHING

CLINICAL EXAMINATION BY A COMPETENT MEDICAL DOCTOR.

He may find disease, fractures, concussion, tumours, or ANY COMMON ILLNESS

which has escaped treatment and has become chronic (perpetual). He should keep

looking until he finds it. For it is there. NOT some "insane germ" but some ordinary

recognizable illness or physical malfunction.

The WRONG THING is to cut nerves or subject the person to more pain. Electricity

can force a nerve channel to flow or paralyze it. That is probably why it seems to work

sometimes. But it cures nothing and more often confirms the insane condition and

certainly fills the patient with dread and terror, injures him and shortens life.

The problem in insanity is often how do you keep the patient from injuring himself

or starving or dying before he can be examined by a competent medical doctor in a

properly equipt clinic.

This is done by rest, security, feeding, under drugs if necessary.

A patient can be "built up" by various biochemical compounds, diathermy and

other mild means that add to his stamina.

Treatment of what really troubles him such as continual sensation from a once

broken leg which was never set, a broken spinal disc or such pathological ills as disease,

can then be treated properly and corrected.

Recovered from the treatment, the patient will be found not to be "insane" any

longer.

Auditing can then occur, any and all engrams (traumas) erased and the person's

recovery will be greatly accelerated.

Of course the real target of auditing is the improvement of the ability to handle life,

greater intelligence, reaction time and other benefits.

Like the spiritual healer of another age who said all was mind and forbade physical

healing, the practitioner who says all is body and scorns mental healing is an extremist.

Each of these is at the opposite ends of "Aristotle's Pendulum". Each has seen

SICKNESS

It will sometimes happen that a pc has a session and then three or four days later

becomes physically ill.

The auditor may feel that auditing did it. It didn’t. The auditing given would have

to be non-standard for this to happen, but the auditing is not to blame.

According to my friend Dr. Stanley Lief, over a century ago Hahnemann

developed a healing technology known as homeopathy which administered minute

doses of medicine. The original theory seems to have been that the disease or illness

was still in the body and would be released. The person would be wildly ill again and

then permanently recover. This is probably a poor statement of the whole subject of

homeopathy and its basic techniques may have worked well but have been lost.

In any event, the phenomenon has application here.

We would say that the mental image picture of the incident was stopped at a

“stuck point” and that it would “run out” of itself if it were unstabilized.

A touch assist can do this. The person may become wildly ill after one and then

recover.

What apparently happens is that the chain of incidents becomes unsettled and the

same incident on the chain in which the person has been stuck for a long while runs out

physically. It completes itself, which is to say, it finishes its cycle of action.

At a hospital where I studied, this was part of the things I observed.

Medicine sometimes will not work on a patient. It works on others but not on a

particular one.

If that particular one is given mental attention even as mild as brief Freudian

analysis, it will be found that medicine will now work on the person.

This formed one of the first application discoveries I made. From it I inferred that

function monitors structure and proceeded to investigate mental actions and reactions in

the field of illness. From this came Dianetics some years later.

Mental therapy prior to 1945 was so ineffective, consisting only of 19th Century

psychoanalysis and Russian and East European psychiatry, that no one else seems to

have observed, then or now, that “mental blocks” are able to obstruct medical treatment

of a real physical nature.

The proof is that when one even reduces the mental block slightly, medicines

such as antibiotics or hormones will now be effective when they were previously

ineffective on some patients.

It is this factor which gives purely medical treatment a somewhat random

appearance. The patient is “stuck” at some point in time. Even inadequate handling of

him mentally (such as a touch assist or a poorly or partially done session or even a

“bad” session) “unsticks” the person from the frozen or fixed “stuck” point.

371

One of three things can now happen:

1. The person can be treated medically for his illness with greater effect.

2. The person in two or three days gets apparently sick or sicker but eventually

recovers and is not subject to that exact sickness again—(it “ran out”).

3. No further result is noted.

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

These data are very useful to a Dianetic auditor or a medical doctor. A person can

be ill and the illness not surrendering to the usual treatment. Brief mild Dianetic auditing

can be done. The medicine may now work.

An auditor who specializes in keying out locks at the first F/N will find

occasionally that his preclear becomes ill in two or three days from some occasional but

longstanding illness which then “runs out” and doesn’t appear again.

An auditor who gives a non-standard, very poor session may find a preclear

occasionally becoming ill within the next three or four days. The auditor and others

blame the auditing.

Any auditing is better than no auditing.

Standard Dianetics is much more powerful than old Dianetics and should only be

done by auditors trained to do it exactly.

Sessions which are non-standard should be corrected as soon as possible,

certainly within two days or you may find the preclear beginning to go through an

illness cycle.

The cycle was waiting to complete itself for a long time. The auditing unsettled it.

It “ran out” physically because the pc was moved in time in the incident in which he has

been “stuck”.

An understanding of this phenomena is necessary. It is useful data. Audit a pc

badly, audit a pc too much to F/Ns on locks only, give a pc too many touch assists and

you will find now and then that the occasional pc becomes physically ill, runs a

temperature, etc. Before blaming yourself too much, realize the pc has often been ill in

the past, that the mental cause of it has been loosened up and manifests itself and runs

out physically. It is not fatal. That illness won’t recur again as it has in the past.

However, that it is not fatal to the pc is no excuse not to do a good STANDARD

job of auditing.

If Standard Dianetics is used WITH NO DEPARTURE from its technology and

procedure the phenomenon will not occur and no pcs experience a physical aftermath.

STANDARD DIANETICS taught precisely, done precisely, only makes people

well.

HEALTH FORM, USE OF

A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF AUDITING

As one needs a guide to know what to audit on a case, the Dianetic Health Form

is an essential auditing action.

Also, some cases do not know they have recovered.

It is Scientology that addresses improved awareness, not Dianetics. Dianetics

accomplishes an eradication of the unwanted condition and when it is gone it is gone.

The pc will not again mention it in many cases and it would be an error to hammer him

about being better now.

Therefore a second Health Form gives a comparison. The somatics and pains not

mentioned in the second which were in the first can be considered to be gone.

A second form done later gives the auditor and (when a Case Supervisor is also

on the case) the Case Supervisor an indication of the actual improvement. A few days,

weeks or months can elapse between giving the form. This gives an indication of

improvement. Any number of Health Forms can be given.

One of the old problems of Dianetics was that the pc recovered from his arthritis

fully and then only nagged the auditor about a new symptom. It wasn’t that the pc had

to have an illness (only the 19th Century psychologist believed that it was no use to

cure anything as the patient just got something else). The fact is that the symptoms of

the pc are several, not just one.

You take up and audit each symptom or complaint to erasure of its picture, one

after the other.

This is a new advance in Dianetics—that a preclear’s illness or upset has more

than one source. His illness or upset is a composite.

You audit the most available symptom first until the picture causing it is erased.

Then find the next one and audit it to erasure of its picture, then the next, etc.

The symptom which has the longest read and also in which the pc is interested is

the one to do first. You run its chain to erasure of basic and it vanishes.

Then do the one which has the longest read (omitting the first from the list) and in

which he is interested and run its secondary or engram or chain to erasure.

Now find the next symptom, etc.

Sooner or later the pc will have a well, healthy body, health, stability and a sense

of well-being.

One finds “an incident which could have caused that”, dates it loosely, runs it as

an incident without pushing hard, gets an earlier similar incident and runs that, or even

378

a third or fourth earlier similar (each time earlier) incident until a floating needle or the

pc indicates the PICTURE IS GONE (has erased).

Then one finds out what may now be bothering the pc by new assessment and

does the same action on it.

You can expect each chain to end with GOOD INDICATORS, pc smiling and

happy. It is not all done in one session.

You only end a session really when the pc is smiling and happy after an erasure

of the basic picture on the chain.

Sooner or later the pc will become bright, happy, symptom free, stable and has a

well body. Then one shifts the preclear off into Scientology auditing to bring about

maximum intelligence and ability. Symptoms are pains, emotional feelings, tiredness,

aches, pressures, sensations, unwanted states of the body, etc.

If you are auditing without a meter, you take the pc’s interest as the indicator.

You audit the symptom in which he is interested and cease to audit it when it is gone.

This however is very chancy and often fails, so an E-Meter is recommended.

You can use whatever is given on the original Health Form that was done until the

form is no longer valid or until the pc’s good indicators are in. When the pc brightens

up, that’s the end of the Health Form. A new one must be done WHEN THE PC IS

AGAIN FEELING BAD, TIRED OR WORRIED.

The purpose of any session or series of sessions is to get the pc feeling well and

happy.

Sometimes the pc’s condition is obvious and the engram equally obvious. The pc

has just had a child. The delivery of it and any earlier similar engram is of course

audited at once. Any recent experience is so handled.

If a pc wants no auditing and yet is ill or miserable, one finds out why he doesn’t

want to be audited by getting him to explain (when he will become auditable) or one

finds and runs as secondaries, engrams or chains bad experiences with treatment. The

best answer to a difficult pc is to send him or her for a Scientology Review and then

begin Dianetics.

If the pc doesn’t recover at all, then the Auditor’s Code has been violated or the

engrams were overrun or not run long enough to erase or the pc was very ill medically

and should have had a medical examination first.

But even with poor auditing it is rare for a pc not to recover.

Of course, the more skilled (follows the Auditor’s Code, knows his meter,

knows his Dianetics) the Auditor is, the more certain recovery becomes.

The worst crime is overwhelming the pc by telling him what’s wrong, not letting

him tell you.

The Health Form is of very great assistance in handling all this. The use of it is as

follows:

1. The Auditor sits down with the pc (usually the pc on a meter) and explains

he’s going to do a Health Form and try to help the pc.

2. The Form is completed.

3. The Auditor picks out by meter or by asking the pc which symptom he has

his attention on.

379

4. The Auditor finds an incident that had that symptom in it, dates it and runs it

as an incident as per R-3-R.

5. The incident picture (and symptom) erases or the auditor finds an earlier

similar incident, etc until the pictures and symptoms are gone.

6. A new symptom is located on the Health Form by meter and its chain is

erased. Each chain erased should leave the pc cheerful if not completely

well.

7. Steps 4 and 5 are repeated.

8. A new symptom is located on the Health Form or by pc’s complaint.

9. Steps 4 and 5 are repeated.

10. We go on doing this until the pc is suddenly well, smiling and happy and at

that moment we at once desist.

11. We tell the pc that is the end of the session.

Note: If several sessions were required to do the above we start each new one by

telling the pc it’s started and end each session by telling the pc the session is ended.

Each session is written down as it is done and preserved for future correction or

use.

The basic Health Form is available from orgs. Individual copies are made out for

each pc and left in his case folder when handled.

PASTORAL COUNSELLING

HEALTH FORM

Revised 22 July 1969

(Part of HCO Bulletin 19 May 1969 [above])

This form is done by an auditor. It is metered.

Don’t try to handle items as the PC gives them unless an item BDs and the PC is

interested. Otherwise assess after it is done. It also should be reassessed for additional

items to run.

If the PC gives you a medical term (e.g. Migraine Headache) as an illness, write it

down in the first column then ask PC what the somatic is (e.g. Pain in Head), write that

down in the second column and note beside it any read. There is no rote command. Get

somatics (not incidents) that can be assessed and run.

If the PC gives you a somatic don’t then ask for the feeling of it. Just write it

down in the second column with its read and carry on down the list. If the PC gives

several somatics in response to one illness, write down each as a separate somatic.

Assess only the second column. Do not assess multiple somatics (i.e. several somatics

as one item) and do not assess items that are not somatics. Do not assess narrative

items. Do not accept or assess considerations.

Remember that an illness has more than one somatic to be audited out before it is

wholly gone.

Persons medically ill should be sent for medical exam.

Cross those off that have been run until form is completely handled.

The end product of this form is entirely to pick out what to audit.

AUDITING OUT SESSIONS

NARRATIVE VERSUS SOMATIC CHAINS

Now and then it is necessary to audit out the last session or an auditing session.

One does this by R-3-R but there is a slight change in wording when asking the pc

to go earlier. One asks for an EARLIER SIMILAR INCIDENT. “Is there an earlier

similar incident?” A session, when audited, does not always erase. Instead it has become

part of a chain. Therefore one has to run R-3-R on it and get an earlier similar incident.

The chain may go back vast amounts of time.

Whereas the pc may only have been in Scientology 3 days, before Scientology there

were other types of “sessions” such as psychoanalysis. And before that, in Rome and

Greece, dream therapy in which one was “visited by a God”. And before that—well, the

chain can have a very far back basic. One does not of course suggest ever what the earlier

incident may be. There is no telling what the pc may confuse with a session.

If one asked the pc to “locate an earlier incident with a similar feeling” one would

be on another chain entirely. Hence one asks, simply, “Is there an earlier similar

incident?” when running a session out.

Running a session out has the liability that one is running a NARRATIVE CHAIN, a

similar experience rather than a similar somatic.

One of the major 1969 breakthroughs was that chains are held together mainly by

somatics. The body condition or somatic is what keeps the chain in association.

One can of course run “narrative incidents” by which one means similar

EXPERIENCES. “Locate an earlier time your mother spanked you.” “Locate an earlier

wreck.” These will run and sometimes even get to and erase a basic. BUT they are LONG

and sometimes don’t ever get to basic at all and the chain may not erase. Running only

narrative incidents is what made early Dianetics run up such fabulous numbers of hours

in processing.

Somatic chains go quickly to basic and are the important chains.

Thus when we erase a chain of sessions we sometimes run into a very long chain.

Sometimes the TA goes up to 4 or 5 (particularly if the auditor grinds). Using a wrong

go-earlier command is a primary reason for trouble.

Usually if you ask simply for an earlier similar incident the pc goes back to

something that will erase and the chain blows.

But remember, asking for similar types of experience can cause trouble in that it

gets very long and basic may not appear for some time.

You can get away with running out sessions in most cases, enough to make it a

worthwhile action. But only if you ask for “an earlier similar incident”. This phrase is a

workhorse phrase of auditing anyway.

The best thing to do is goof no assessments or sessions in the first place.

SERIOUSLY ILL PCS

In Green Form No. 40 there is an item:

“Seriously Physically Ill”.

This is handled as follows:

1. Medical Examination

2. Medical care

3. Dianetic Auditing as follows:

List all somatics and feelings connected with the illness.

Assess the list.

Run R3R.

Continue to assess the list and run R3R on items found.

Add to the list any new items connected with the illness.

The main point is to exhaust the entire list, of all reading items.

An illness contains many somatics, feelings, emotions.

As a pc who is ill is easily made an effect, the auditing sessions should be

smoothly done and each session relatively short, completing each session on the first

erasure that gives the pc an F/N and a win (Erasure, Cognition and F/N).

The remaining items on the GF 40 are then handled.

If “Seriously Physically Ill” is not THE GF 40 item, it is still handled but in its

turn doing the above Dianetic actions.

Needless to say the item “Seriously Physically Ill” is handled by a Dianetic

Auditor.

(NOTE: No narrative or multiple items must be audited. Get them restated.)

ANTIBIOTICS

A pc on antibiotics should be given Dianetic Auditing.

Very often antibiotics do not function unless the illness or injury is also audited.

The basic failures of antibiotics apparently stem from a traumatic condition which

prevents the medical treatment from functioning.

When a person is medically treated for an illness, it is best to back up the action

with auditing.

Sometimes the patient is too ill to be fully audited. It is difficult to audit someone

who is running a temperature. In such a case, let the antibiotics bring the temperature

down before auditing. But if the temperature does not come down, in the interest of the

patient’s recovery, auditing should be done.

It is usually too late when the patient is in a coma. But one can still reach a patient

who is unconscious by touching the patient’s hand to parts of the bed with “Feel that

(object)”.

A patient will sometimes respond to commands even when “unconscious” if you

tell them to squeeze your hand to acknowledge they have done the command.

Years ago the auditing of unconscious persons was worked out and successfully

done.

Needless to say, auditing any sick person requires the most exact, careful

auditing, strictly by the Auditor’s Code.

POSTOPERATIVE AUDITING

A person who has been operated on or medically or dentally treated or a mother

who has just delivered a child should have the engram audited out as soon as possible

by Dianetic R3R.

The after-effects of anaesthetics or the presence of drugs or antibiotics is to be

neglected.

The usual action is to

1. Get them medical treatment.

2. Audit them as soon as possible on the illness or injury.

3. Audit them again when they are well.

4. Get them a Review if they seem to be showing much later after-effects

despite Dianetic auditing.

HEAVY DOSES OF VITAMIN B1, B COMPLEX and C should accompany all

such auditing actions.

422

SAVING LIVES

All this comes under the heading of saving lives.

At the very least it saves slow recovery and bad after-effects and resultant

psychosomatic illnesses.

Dianetics is the first development since the days of Rome that changes and

improves the RATE OF HEALING.

Dianetics is also the first development that removes traumatic barriers from the

path of healing.

Medicines and endocrine compounds quite often are effective in the presence of

Dianetic auditing which were once inexplicably ineffective in many cases. The barrier to

healing was the engram. With that removed, healing can occur.

OBJECTIONS TO USE

Any barriers or objections to using Dianetics to assist the effectiveness of

medicine or to increase the rate of or even secure effective recovery place the patient at

risk as certainly as failing to use antiseptics.

Such objections can be dismissed as stemming from barbaric or superstitious

mentalities or from motives too base to be decent.

It would not be possible to count the number of lives Dianetics saved in the 19

years even before the advent of Standard Dianetics. Few human betterment activities

have been so widely successful and so uniformly helpful as Dianetics.

THE USES OF AUDITING

Case Supervisors, Registrars and Letter Registrars particularly should know

something of the enormous number of uses to which auditing can be put.

The idea of selling and applying “Dianetic Triples” and “Scientology Grades” as

all one knows about is an approach that is both lazy and ignorant.

It is doubtful if one could count the number of uses to which auditing can be

placed to help livingness and improve the health, ability and outlook of a person.

The trend now is to apply auditing to special requirements. But this is not a new

trend—it is merely unknown. Emphasis on completed grades tended to drive out of

sight the real uses of auditing.

Naturally one wants his Dianetic Triples and his Scientology Triples. But to say

this is the end of auditing is silly.

In the pursuit of the “new” one forgets the successful old. In Class VI auditing,

there are thousands of processes, all valid, if run only to F/N.

Dianetic Auditing particularly lends itself to specific situations. For instance, a

pregnant woman should be audited on emotions and somatics relating to birth or babies

before delivery. We used to simply audit the girl’s own birth and any past births

(R3R). Then immediately after delivery the engram is run out. Handling pregnancy in

this fashion has the woman up and about in 3 days and in fine condition. This prevents

utterly the extreme of “postpartum psychosis”, as mental upset due to delivery is called.

It prevents any upset with the husband or child. It prevents physical aftereffects. In

short, it should be done.

People who have been ill for some time often only get well because they are

audited.

After any illness the person should be audited.

After accidents and medical care people should be audited.

Almost any human situation containing pain or misemotion should be handled by

auditing.

In the field of ability auditing is king. The inability to study or to work or even to

live can be handled in many ways. The simple action of listing the somatics, emotions

and attitudes of the unwanted condition and running them R3R Triples relieves them.

A Registrar can sign up “Intensives” on these subjects and get them relayed to the

Case Supervisor.

Auditing is for use.

Auditing is the answer to human disability and travail. It can make life worth

living.

Auditing is not a limited action, “He’s had his triples so you can’t do anything” is

about as limited a view as you can get.

The public should be given lists of things they may want handled. The use of

auditing should be known, particularly in lower orgs.

A Case Supervisor should be fully aware of what auditing can do and insist that it

get done.

There is no limit to what good auditing can do. That is the first thing one should

learn about it.

UNRESOLVED PAINS

It occasionally happens that a pc’s certain pain does not resolve on Dianetics.

There are two reasons for this:

1. NOT ENOUGH AUDITING ON ENOUGH CHAINS.

Sooner or later the exact small piece of an engram “already run” shows up on

another chain later.

Example: Pain in an area of an operation occurs now and then again weeks,

months or years after the operation has been run out as an engram. Sooner or later just

on general auditing the missing bit of the operation shows up, blows. Voila! Pain gone

forever.

This is peculiar especially to abdominal operations like an appendectomy. The

operation was run out. The scar stays puffy. The pc is occasionally ill from it. Pc’s

conclusion is that Dianetics hasn’t worked on it. More auditing on other somatics (just

general Dianetics) is given. One day the remaining bit of the operation, hidden from

view, apparently erased, shows up, blows. Pc now fine.

A reason for this is “overburden” in that the incident was too charged in one place

to be confronted. As the whole case is unburdened, confront comes up. The piece that

was missing (and giving the pain) blows.

There is no way of forcing it. In fact it would be fatal to try.

The other reason for it is that the missing bit causing the pain is a different

somatic like “a Chest Compression”. This bit of the operation had another basic than

the one run.

The answer to a persistent or recurring somatic in an injured area is always more

Dianetic Auditing of the standard type, just addressed to the bank not the special

somatic. Just keep doing the usual and one day it all straightens out.

2. SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM PAINS.

There are two sides to the body. As you learn in touch assists, if the right hand is

injured you include also the left hand.

Body nerves conduct pain. The two sides of the body interlock. Pain gets stopped

in the nerves.

If the right elbow is hurt the LEFT elbow will have echoed the pain.

Example, you find a pc with a pain in the left elbow. You try to audit a left elbow

chain. It doesn’t fully resolve.

If you ran injuries to the RIGHT elbow, suddenly there’s a somatic going

through the left elbow! It gets well.

110

This is the sympathetic nervous system. The right ear, injured, also gets echoes

with a somatic in the left ear. You audit the right ear only. Pc comes up with a sore left

ear!

You can actually direct a pc’s attention to it (non-standard but a research

technique) and he can find where the uninjured ear echoed the injured ear.

Where you can’t fully repair a crippled left leg, don’t be surprised to find it was

the right leg that was hurt.

You audit the left leg somatic in vain. If you do, start auditing somatics in the

OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE BODY.

TOOTHACHE

The mystery of toothache is resolved in both 1 and 2 above, especially 2.

The pain is concentrated on the left upper molar. You audit it in vain. Toothache

persists.

Look at the pc’s mouth. Has the RIGHT upper molar ever been pulled or injured?

Yes. That’s how the left molar began to decay. The right upper molar was pulled. The

pain (especially under the painkiller on the right side only) backed up and stopped on

the opposite side. Eventually the left upper molar, under that stress, a year or ten later,

caves in and aches.

Mysterious as it wasn’t injured. Mysterious as the opposite molar is long gone,

doesn’t hurt anymore.

When a toothache does not resolve in auditing, audit the opposite tooth on the

other side. You can actually do it by count of teeth.

It’s sort of auditing a no-somatic.

Pc in misery with right upper molar. No pain on left side. Audit an injury he had

on the left side (it will read on the meter also). Voila! The toothache that wouldn’t go

away eases up!

The fellow who has the exact opposite teeth pulled (upper right wisdom, upper

left wisdom) is in for it as there is a constant cross-play. Makes the mouth odd and

pressury. Both sides are reacting to the other side!

Dentists often note the strange pressure, “bursting feelings”, a patient has when a

tooth “needs pulling”. This is the stress in the nerves from an injury which occurred on

the opposite side!

An auditor can audit a right side tooth in vain unless he knows enough to audit

THE OTHER SIDE.

For a pc with a toothache, on the right side, you can list for feelings on the left

side of the mouth and get “numbness”, “no feeling”, etc. Audit that list and suddenly

magically the toothache on the opposite side not being audited eases up.

As toothaches sometimes give a Dianetic auditor a failure, he should know about

the sympathetic factor as above. The failure becomes a success.
