COMMUNICATION, 1. the consideration and action of impelling an impulse or particle from source point across a distance to receipt point with the intention of bringing into being at the receipt point a duplication and understanding of that which emanated from the source point. (HCOB 5 Apr 73) 2. the first and most basic definition of any part of communication is that communication or any part thereof is a consideration. As duplication is a consideration, communication is possible to the degree that the preclear can freely make considerations. (COHA, pp.170-171) 3. the operation, the action, by which one experiences emotion and by which one agrees. Communication is not only the modus operandi, it is the heart of life and is by thousands of per cent the senior in importance to affinity and reality. (PAB 1) 4. any ritual by which effects can be produced and perceived. Thus a letter, a buflet, the output of theta 'flitter" are all, to us, communication. (PAB 4) 5. the ability to translate sympathy or some component of sympathy from one terminal to another terminal. (Spr Lect 5, 5303CM25) 6. an interchange of energy from one beingness to another; in the thetan and in Homo sapiens communication is known as perception. (Sen 8-8008, p. 21) 7. the handling of particles, of motion. (PAB 1) 8. the interchange of perception through the material universe between organisms or the perception of the material universe by sense channels. (Sen 0-8, p. 83) 9. the interchange of ideas across space. (Sen 0-8, p. 36) 10. the use of those sense channels with which the individual contacts the physical universe. (DAB, Vol.11, p.218)

COMMUNICATION BRIDGE, 1. it simply closes off the process you were running, maintains ARC, and opens up the new process on which you are about to embark. (PAB 151) 2. before a question is asked, the preclear should have the question discussed with him and the wording agreed upon as though he were making a contract with the auditor. This is the first part of a communication bridge. It precedes all questions but when one is changing from one process to another the bridge becomes a bridge indeed. (I)AB 88) 3. the reason we use a communication bridge is so a pe will not be startled by change, for if we change too rapidly in a session, we stick the preclear in the session every time. We give him some warning; and that is what a communication bridge is for. (PAB 151)

COMMUNICATION CHANGE, by communication change we also mean perception change. (PAB 1)

COMMUNICATION COURSE, 1. because the H.A.S. Course is a course about communication, it is often called the Comm Course (comm being for communication). (HCO PL 15 Apr 71R) 2. a basic Scn course consisting mainly of the TRs; also called the H.A.S. (Hubbard Apprentice Scientologist Course). (PRD Gloss) See H.A.S. COURSE.

COMMUNICATION CYCLE, 1. a cycle of communication and two-way communication are actually two different things. A cycle of communication is not a two-way communication in its entirety. In a cycle of communication we have Joe as the originator of a communication addressed to Bill. We find Bill receiving it and then Bill originating an answer or acknowledgement back to Joe and thus ends the cycle. (Dn 55!, p.82) 2. consists of just cause, distance, effect with intention, attention, duplication and understanding. (HCOB 23 May 1971R IV) Abbr. comm cycle.

COMMUNICATION FORMULA, 1. communication is the interchange of ideas or objects between two people or terminals. The Formula of Communication and its precise definition is: Cause, Distance, Effect with Intention and Attention and a duplication at Effect of what emanates from Cause. (PXL Gloss) 2. the formula of communication is: Cause, Distance, Effect with Intention, Attention and Duplication with Understanding. (HCOB 5 Apr 73)

COMMUNICATION LAG, the length of time intervening between the asking of the question by the auditor and the reply to that specific question by the preclear. The question must be precise; the reply must be precisely to that question. It does not matter what intervenes in the time between the asking of the question and the receipt of the answer. The preclear may outflow, jabber, diseuss, pause, hedge, disperse, dither or be silent; no matter what he does or how he does it, between the asking of the question and the giving of the answer, the time is the communication lag. The near answer, a guessing answer, an undecided answer, are alike imprecise answers, and are not adequate responses to the question. On receipt of such questionable answers, the auditor must ask the question again. That he asks the question again does not reduce the communication lag; he is still operating from the moment he asked the question the first time. And if he has to ask the question 20 or 30 times more in the next hour in order to get a precise and adequate answer from the preclear, the length of time of the lag would be from the asking of the first question to the final receipt of the answer. Near answers to the question are inadequate, and are, them-selves, simply part of the communication lag. (PAB 43)

COMMUNICATION LAG INDEX, 1. the length of time it takes to get a logical answer. (Spr Lect 3, 5303CM24) 2. the most important method of telling whether or not a person is sick or well. A person who answers quickly (and rationally) is in much better condition than a person who answers after a long consideration. (PAB 2)

COMMUNICATION LINE, 1. the route along which a communication travels from one person to another. (Sen AD) 2. any sequence through which a message of any character may go. (SOS, p.94)

COMMUNICATION PROCESS, any process which places the preclear at cause and uses communication as the principal command phrase. (HCOB 7 Aug 59)

COMMUNICATION SCALE, refers to the individual's ability to communicate with other people (in relation to his position on the tone scale). (NOTL, p.103)

COMMUNICATIONS RELEASE, expanded Grade 0 release. (CG&AC 75) See GRADE 0 RELEASE.

COMPARABLE MAGNITUDE, 1. similar importance. (PAB 126) 2. a datum can only be evaluated by comparison with another datum of comparable magnitude. This means the basic unit must therefore, be two. (SOS Gloss) Abbr. Comp Mag.

COMPARTMENTING THE QUESTION, 1. reading it word by word and phrase by phrase to see if any one word or any one phrase falls rather than the question as a whole. (HCOB 28 Sept 61) 2. using the prior reads occurring at the exact end of the minor thoughts to dig up different data not related to the whole thought. (HCOB 25 May 62)

COMPLETE, the reverse of quickie. To make whole, entire or perfect; end after satisfying all demands or requirements. (HCOB 19 Apr 72)

COMPLETE CASE, a case is not complete unless the lowest incomplete grade chart action is complete and then each completed in turn on up. (HCOB 26 Aug 70)

COMPLETE LIST, 1. a list which has only one reading item on list. (HCOB 1 Aug 68) 2. any list listed for assessment that does not produce a dirty needle while nulling or tiger drilling. (HCOB 12 Nov 62)

COMPLETION, 1. a completion is the completing of a specific course or an auditing grade meaning it has been started, worked through and has successfully ended with an award in Qual. (HCOB 19 Jun 71111) 2. a finished level or rundown. (HCO PL 29 Aug 71)

COMP MAG, comparable magnitude. (BTB 20 Aug 71R II)

COMPOSITE ILLNESS, an illness composed of many somatics. (HCOB 19 Jul 69)

COMPULSION, 1. an engramic command that the organism must do something. (DTOT, p.58) 2. things pc feels compelled to do. (BTB 24 Apr 69)

COMPULSIVE COMMUNICATION, an outflow which is not pertinent to the surrounding terminals and situation. In other words, compulsive communication is an outflow which is not in reality with the existing reality. (Dn 554 p.93)

COMPULSIVE EXTERIORIZATION, a manifestation which we call in Scn "doing a bunk," in other words, running away. (Dn 554 p.136)

COMPUTATION, technically, that aberrated evaluation and postulate that one must be consistently in a certain state in order to succeed. The computation thus may mean that one must entertain in order to be alive or that one must be dignified in order to succeed or that one must own much in order to live. A computation is simply stated. It is always aberrated. A computation is as insidious as it pretends to align with survival. All computations are nonsurvival. Computations are held in place wholly to invalidate others. (AP&A, p.41)

COMPUTATIONAL ALTITUDE, signifying that the individual has an outstanding ability to think, to compute upon data. Albert Einstein had computational altitude. (SOS Gloss)

COMPUTING PSYCHOTIC, 1. a psychotic who from his reactivity figure-figures. He's inconstant in his conduct, he's computive. He figures it all out, he's got explanations. His psychosis is derived because these are crazy explanations. He's obsessively solving a problem that does not exist. (SH Spec 83, 6812C06) 2. the computing psychotic passes quite commonly for a normal. Here the individual is taking dictation solely from a facsimile of some past moment of pain and is acting upon the advice of that "circuit" and is calling it thought. The psychotic personality is distinguished by its irrationality and its perversion of values. The distinguishing characteristic of the computing psychotic is his utter inability to change his mind. (AP&A, p.38)

CONCENTRATION, duration of a mock-up in present time. (Spr Lect 4, 5303M24)

CONCEPT, 1. a high wave thought, above perception or reason or single incidents. (Scn 8-80, p.29) 2. that which is retained after something has been perceived. (DMSMH, p.46)

CONCEPT RUNNING, the preclear "gets the idea" of knowing or not being and holds it, the while looking at his time track. The concept runs out, or the somatic it brings on runs out, and the concept itself is run. It is not addressed at individual incidents but at hundreds. (Scn 8-80, p.29)

CONCLUSION, the theta facsimiles of a group of combined data. (Scn 0-8, p.78)

CONDITION, 1. anything called for as a requirement before the performance, completion or effectiveness of something else; provision; stipulation. Anything essential to the existence or occurrence of something else; external circumstances or factors. Manner or state of being. Proper or healthy state. (HCOB 11 May 65) 2. a circumstance regarding a mass or terminal. (PAB 126)

CONDITIONS BY DYNAMICS, an ethics type action. Have the person study the conditions formulas. Clear up the words related to his dynamics one to eight, and what they are. Now ask him what is his condition on the first dynamic. Have him study the formulas. Don't buy any glib PR. When he's completely sure of what his condition really is on the first dynamic he will cognite. Similarly go on up each one of the dynamics until you have a condition for each one. Continue to work this way. Somewhere along the line he will start to change markedly. (HCO PL 4 Apr 72) [The above is a brief summary only. The full procedure will be found in the referenced HCO PL.]

CONDITIONS (ETHICS), in Scn the term also means the ethics conditions (confusjon,* treason, enemy, doubt, liability, nonexistence, danger, emergency, normal, affluence, power change, power). The state or condition of any person, group or activity can be plotted on this scale of conditions which shows the degree of success or survival of that person, group or activity at any time. Data on the application of these conditions is contained in the ethics policies and tapes of Scn. (BTB 12 Apr 72R) [*The ethics condition of confusion came later than the date of this BTB and is added here by the editor in order that all the current ethics conditions are included.]

CONDITION OF BEING, see CONDITIONS OF EXISTENCE.

CONDITIONS OF EXISTENCE, there are three conditions of existence. These three conditions comprise life. They are BE, DO and HAVE. The condition of being is defined as the assumption (choosing) of a category of identity. An example of beingness could be one's own name. Another example would be one's profession. The second condition of existence is doing. By doing, we mean action, function, accomplishment, the attaininent of goals, the fulfilling of purpose, or any change of position in space. The third condition is havingness. By havingness we mean owning, possessing, being capable of commanding, positioning, taking charge of objects, energies or spaces. These three conditions are given in an order of seniority (importance) where life is concerned. (FOT, pp.26-27)

CONDUCT SURVIVAL PATTERN, the conduct survival pattern is built upon the equation of the optimum solution. It is the basic equation of all rational behavior and is the equation on which a Clear functions. It is inherent in man. In other words, the best solution to an), problem is that which will bring the greatest good to the greatest number of beings. (DMSMH, p.34)

CONF, conference. (HCOB 29 Sept 66)

CONFESSION, a limited effort to relieve a person of the pressure of his overt acts. (HCOB 21 Jan 60, Justification)

CONFESSIONAL, 1. sec checking done in session not for security purposes is called a confessional. (HCOB 14 Oct 72) 2. in an effort to get around what was thought to be a public relations scene, the name "security checking" was changed to "Integrity Processing." This was also a PR error because the actual truth of the matter is it originated as "confessional" and should have simply been changed back to "handling of confessions." This administrative demand of name alteration threw the original issues on "sec checking" into disuse. Additionally "Integrity Processing" did not include all the tech of sec checking. There should be no further confusion in this matter. "Sec checking," "Integrity Processing" and "confessionals" are all the exact same procedure and any materials on these subjects is interchangeable under these titles. (HCOB 24 Jan 77)

CONFESSIONAL AID (E-METER), the confessional aid assists the minister in locating and relieving the spiritual travail of individual parishioners in the Scn confessional. The confessional aid does not diagnose or treat human ailments of body or mind, nor does it affect the structure or any function of the body; its use is directed as an article of faith of the Church of Scientology, and was never intended for use outside of the Scientology ministry. (HCO FL 9 Jul 69) See also E-METER.

CONFRONT, n. 1. an action of being able to face. (HCOB 4 Jan 73) 2. the ability to be there comfortably and perceive. (HCOB 2 Jun 71 I) 3. confront itself is a result and an end product. It itself isn't a doingness, it's an ability. (SII Spec 21, 6106C27) -v. to face without flinching or avoiding. (HCOB 4 Jan 73)

CONFRONTING, 1. the ability to be there comfortably and perceive. (IICOB 2 Jun 71R-1) 2. the ability to front up to. (SH Spec 84. 6612C13)

CONFRONT PROCESS, 1. the confront process for a pc from the Thiny-Six Presessions. The confront process gets the preclear to present time from areas on the track where his attention was fixed by an earlier process. (EME, p.20) 2. it should move pc on the track, going further into the past and easier and easier into present time. Pc's pictures should improve on a confront process. (HCOB 23 Sept 60)

CONFUSION, 1. a confusion can be defined as any set of factors or circumstances which do not seem to have any immediate solution. More broadly, a confusion in this universe is random motion. (POW, p. 21) 2. plus randomity. It means motion unexpected above the tolerance level of the person viewing it. (Abil 36) 3. a number of force vectors traveling in a number of different directions. (UPC 11) 4. a confusion consists of two things, time and space; change of particles in, predicted or unpredicted, and if they are unpredicted changes in space you will have a confusion. (SH Spec 58, 6109C26)

CONNECTEDNESS, the basic process on association of theta with mest. All forms and kinds of association, including being caught in traps, prone to become identifications as in Dn. Connectedness puts the thetan at cause in making the mest (or people when run outside) connect with him. (SCP, p.28)

CONSCIOUS, when the individual is "unconscious" in full or in part, the reactive mind is cut in full or in part. When he is fully conscious, his analytical mind is fully in command of the organism. (DMSMH, p.59)

CONSCIOUSNESS, 1. awareness of now. (DTOT, p. 24) 2. consciousness is awareness. Awareness itself is perception. (2ACC-8B, 5311CM24)

CONSERVATISM, at 3.0 on the tone scale we have the person who is democratic, but who is somewhat more conservative than the liberal at 3.5 in his attitudes and more given to social regulations, being more in need of them. (SOS, p.124)

CONSIDER, think, believe, suppose, postulate. (PAB 82)

CONSIDERATION, 1. a thought, a postulate about something. (BTB 1 Dec 71R IV) 2. a consideration is a continuing postulate. (5702C26) 3. the highest capability of life, taking rank over the mechanics of space, energy and time. (GOHA Gloss)

CONSULTANT, an instructor who is on duty sporadically or from time to time but not routinely in any one place. (HCOB 23 Apr 59)

CONT, continue (-d) (-ing), continental. (BPL 5 Nov 72RA)

CONTACT ASSIST, 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 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. (HCOB 2 Apr 69)

CONTAGION OF ABERRATION, 1. entheta, in proximity to theta, makes entheta out of it. From this we have the contagion of aberration. (SOS, Bk. 2, p. 24) 2. people under stress, if aberrated, dramatize engrams. Such dramatization may involve the injury of another person and render him more or less unconscious." The "unconscious" person then receives as an engram the dramatization. (DMSMH, p.134)

CONTAGION OF ERROR, on a course where the students audit each other a contagion of error can occur. For example, student A does a bad assessment on student B. Student B is then likely to give a bad assessment to his next pc and you soon have a whole rash of bad assessments. A similar phenomenon occurs when students are permitted to get the answers to their queries from other students. (HCOB 20 May 69)

CONTINUING OVERT ACT, continually committing overts before, during and after processing. The person who is not getting case gains is committing continuing overts. (HCOB 29 Sept 65 II)

CONTINUING OVERT CASE, who commits overts even when being audited and between sessions. (HCOB 1 Jun 65)

CONTINUOUS MISSED WITHHOLD, a continuous missed withhold occurs when a person feels some way and anyone who sees him misses it. Example: a doctor feels very unconfident of his skill. Every patient who sees him misses the fact that he is not confident. This reacts as a missed withhold. It is of course based upon some bad incident that destroyed his confidence (usually of an engramic intensity). (HCOB 15 Dec 73)

CONTINUOUS OVERT, this is not quite the same as The Continuing OverL Act, HCOB 29 Sept 65. In that type the person is repeating overt acts against something usually named. In the continuous overt a person who believes he is harmful to others may also believe that many of his common ordinary actions are harmful. He may feel he is committing a continuous overt on others. Example: a clothing model believes she is committing a fraud on older women by displaying clothing to them in which they will look poorly. In her estimation this is a continuous overt act. (HCOB 15 Dec 73)

CONTINUOUS OVERTS CASE, here's one that commits antisocial acts daily during auditing. He's psychotic, he'll never get better, case always hangs up. We can even solve that case. (HCOB 4 Apr 65)

CONTRA.SURVIVAL ENGRAM, 1. any kind of engram which lies across the dynamics and has no alignment with purpose. (DMSMH, p.262) 2. a contra-survival engram contains physical pain, painful emotions, all other perceptions and menace to the organism. It contains apparent or actual antagonism to the individual. (DMSMH, p.62)

CONTROL, 1. you are stating a greater truth when you say that control is predictable change than if you say control is start, change and stop because start and stop are, of course, necessary to change. You might say the thinking or philosophic definition would be predictable change. (5703C10) 2. when we say control, we simply mean willingness to start, stop and change. (Dn 554 p. 100) 3. positive postulating, which is intention, and the execution thereof. (S'cn 0-8, p.36)

CONTROL CASE, 1. the case where control is obsessive or other-determined, or where the individual is controlling things out of compulsion or fear. (Dn 55!, p.100) 2. the person who feels he must be cold blooded in order to be rational is what is called in Dianetics a "control case," and on examination will be found to be very far from as rational as he might be. People who cannot experience emotion because of their aberrations are ordinarily sick people. (SA, p.94)

CONTROL CENTER, 1. the control center of the organism can be defined as the contact point between theta and the physical universe and is that center which is aware of being aware and which has charge of and responsibility for the organism along all its dynamics. (Scn 0-8, p.84) 2. every mind may be considered to have a control center. This could be called the "awareness of awareness unit' of the mind, or it could be called simply "I". The control center is cause. It directs, through emotional relay systems, the actions of the body and the environment. It is not a physical thing. (HFP, p.30)

CONTROL CIRCUIT, the control circuit may conduct itself as an interior entity which takes the preclear out of the auditor's hands. When preclears are very hard to handle, take the bit in their teeth and try to run their own cases despite anything the auditor may do, they are running on control circuits, recorded commands which make the preclear misbehave under auditing. (SOS, Bk. 2, p.204)

CONTROL-CONCEPT PROCESSING, you just get the concept of "you can't control it" and the concept that "you can control it." (5209CM04B)

CONTROL PROCESSES, processes which place the pc's body and actions under the auditor's control to invite control of them by the pc. (HCOB 29 Oct 57)

CONTROL TRANSFER, a specialized kind of transfer wherein the thetan having devoted himself to a mest body now begins to control the environment and other people for his body much as he controls the body. (HOM, p.78)

CONTROL TRIO, a three-stage process on a heavy spotting control. It runs in this fashion. "Get the idea that You can have that (object)." And when this is relatively fiat, "Get the idea of making that (object) remain where it is" (or continue where it is) and "Get the idea of making that (object) disappear." This is actually a very fine process and undercuts (runs on a lower case than) trio itself. (SCP, p.22)

CONVERSATION, the process of alternating outflowing and inflowing communication. (Dn 55!, p.63)

COO, designation on HCO Policy Letters and HCO Bulletins indicates dissemination and restriction as follows: HCO City Offices only, not to be shown or given to HCO franchise holders or field Auditors; also goes to central organizations, HCO Area, HCO Cont, HCO WW. (HCO PL 22 May 59)

COPY, n. 1. a duplicate, distinguished from a perfect duplicate, in that it does not necessarily occupy the same space, same time, nor use the same energies as the original. (COHA Gloss) 2. the word "duplicate" is used, rather sloppily, to indicate a copy. However, a copy is not a complete duplicate; a copy is a facsimile. (COHA, p.82) 3. something that a thetan on his own volition simply made of an object in the physical universe with full knowingness. (PXL, p.65) -V. to make another one just like it. (COHA, p.34)

CORPSE CASE, a pc who would lie upon the couch with his arms crossed neatly all ready for a lily and would always audit in this fashion. The preclear is so fixed in a death that he is trying to make everything unreal, and the only real thing, to him, would be the unreality of death. (PAB 50) See also COFFIN CASE.

CORRECTION LIST, 1. a list of prepared questions on a mimeod sheet which is used by the auditor for the repair of a particular situation, action, or rundown. (BTB 7 Nov 72 I) 2. the various lists designed to find by-passed charge and repair a faulty auditing action or life situation. (HCOB 28 May 70)

COTERM, combined terminal. (HCOB 8 Nov 62)

COUNTER-CREATE, see CREATE -COUNTER-CREATE.

COUNTER-EFFORT, 1. the effort which counters one's survival. (5203CM06A) 2. any effort the environment can exert against you. (5203CM04B) 3. what we're talking about when we talk about a counter-effort is the force of impact of an engram. The force of impact which gives the pc an engram is a counter-effort. (5206CM25A)

COUNTER-EMOTION, any emotion that is countering an existing emotion. (SH Spec 84, 6612C13)

COUNTER-THOUGHT, you think one thing somebody else thinks another. Their thought is counter to your thought. (HFP, p.115)

COURAGE, the theta force necessary to overcome the obstacles in surviving. (SOS, p.139)

COURSE ADMINISTRATOR, the course staff member in charge of the course materials and records. (HCOB 19 Jun 71111)

COURSE CHECKSHEET, see CHECKSHEET.

COURSE MATERIALS, in Scn and Dn course materials are defined as those books, tapes, magazines, HCO Bulletins, HCO Policy Letters and other authorized technical issues listed on the checksheets of ~ourses designed for use by the Church's public. (BTB 24 Nov 7~ II)

COURSE SUP, course supervisor. (HCOB 23 Aug 65)

COURSE SUPERVISOR, 1. the instructor in charge of a course and its students. (HCOB 19 Jun 71111) 2. basically, someone who in addition to his other duties can refer the person to the exact bulletin to get his information and never tells him another thing. (6905C29) Abbr. Crse Sup.

COURSE SUPERVISOR CORRECTION LIST, a correction list designed to help locate the individual reasons a supervisor has for not fully applying the study tech in supervision. (HCOB 27 Mar 72R II)

COVERT AUDITING, some students covertly audit. In "talking" to someone they also seek to audit that person "without the person knowing anything about it." This of course is nonsense since auditing results are best achieved in a session and a session depends upon a self-determined agreement to be audited. (HCOB 17 Oct 64 III)

COVERT HOSTILITY, around 1.1 on the tone scale we reach the level of covert hostility. Here the hatred of the individual has been socially and individually censured to a point where it has been suppressed, and the individual no longer dares demonstrate hate as such. He yet possesses sufficient energy to express some feeling on the matter, and so what hatred he feels comes forth covertly. All manner of subterfuges may be resorted to. The person may claim to love others and to have the good of others as his foremost interest; yet, at the same moment, he works, unconsciously or otherwise, to injure or destroy the lives and reputations of people and also to destroy property. (SOS, p.56)

CR, cramming. (HCOB 16 Jun 71 III) fReplaced now by BTB 16 Jun 71RA III.]

CRAMMING, 1. a section in the Qualifications Division where a student is given high pressure instruction at his own cost after being found slow in study or when failing his exams. (HCOB 19 Jun 71 III) 2. the cramming section teaches students what they have missed. This indudes trained auditors who wish to be brought up-to-date on current technical developments. (HCO PL 13 May 69)

CRAMMING ORDER, 1. a cramming order is written to handle a specific situation. If that is not handled, the situation will worsen or change, thus the original cramming order will not sufficiently handle if it is stale dated. (BTB 21 Jan 73R) 2. there is a certain technology on bow to write up a cramming order: (1) isolate the exact outnesses in the folder; (2) order those HCOBs or PLs crammed; (3) now look in a slightly wider circle around the data flunked and get which basic is involved (i.e. Auditor Code, TRs, metering, handling the session, handling the pc as a being, etc.) and get that crammed, too. (BTB 12 Dec 71R)

CREAK, a stiffness, and out-of-plumbness, an unchanging situation, a no-energy flow. (HCOB 13 Apr 64, Sc's VI Part One Glossar~ of Te~s}

CREATE, make, manufacture, construct, postulate, bring into beingness. (FOT, p.20)

CREATE-COUNTER-CREATE, to create something against a creation, to create one thing and then create something else against it. (FOT, pp.20-21)

CREATE-CREATE-CREATE, create again continuously one moment after the next=SURVIVAL. (FOT, p.20)

CREATIVE IMAGINATION, imagination, whereby in the field of aesthetics the urges and impulses of the various dynamics are interwoven into new scenes and ideas. (SOS, Bk. 2, p.101)

CREATIVE PROCESSING, 1. the exercise by which the pc is actually putting up the physical universe. (SH Spec 52, 6502C23) 2. creative processing consists of having the preclear make, with his own creative energies, a mock-up. (COHA Gloss)

CRIMINAL, 1. one who is unable to think of the other fellow, unable to determine his own actions, unable to follow orders, unable to make things grow, unable to determine the difference between good and evil, unable to think at all on the future. Anybody has some of these; the criminal has ALL of them. (NSOL, p.78) 2. one who thinks help cannot be on any dynamic or uses help on anyone to injure and destroy. (HCOB 28 May 60) 3. criminals are people who are frantically attempting to create an effect long after they know they cannot. They cannot then create decent effects, only violent effects. Neither can they work. (FOT, pp.31-32)

CRISS-CROSS, see 3DXX.

CRITICAL THOUGHT, 1. a symptom of an overt act having been committed. (SH Spec 37, 6409C01) 2. a critical pc=a withhold from the auditor. (HCOB 23 Aug 71)

CRITICISM, 1. most criticism is justification of having done an overt. There are rightnesses and wrongnesses in conduct and society and life at large, but random, carping 1.1 criticism when not borne out in fact is only an effort to reduce the size of the target of the overt. (HCOB 21 Jan 60, Justification) 2. a criticism is a hope that they can damage, and that's what a criticism is, with an inability to do so. (SH Spec 119, 6202C22)

CR0000-1, a drill to train the student to raise his awareness of the condition of the pc called "Set up for a perfect session" drill. (HCOB 16 Jun 71111) An auditor must be able to see when a pc has not eaten or slept, or what his tone level is, or is the PC auditable. (This HCOB is cancelled and replaced by BTH 16 Jun 71RA III and the drill renamed "Ideal Session Start."]

CR0000-2, a drill to train an auditor to increase session pace when auditing a fast pc. Its name is Rapui TR-2. This is basically a correction drill for auditors who tend to lose session control by slow acknowledgements inviting endless itsa. (BTB 16 Jun 71R II)

CR0000-3, an E-meter drill to train an auditor to confront an E-meter. If a student has difficulty doing the preceding E-meter drills, this drill is done. It is a gradient step towards greater session control. The student confronts the E-meter and does nothing else for two hours. (BTB 16 Jun 71R II)

CR0000-4, a drill to train an auditor to be able to see the pc, the pc's hands on the cans, the meter plus any reads, and the worksheets without having to look at any one of them. The auditor is trained to widen his/her vision until the auditor can see the meter, the pc, the pc's hands on the cans, and the worksheets effortlessly. (BTB 16 Jun 71R II)

CR0000-5, E-meter trim check drill. A drill to train an auditor to be able to do a trim check effortlessly in a session without distracting the pc in any way. (BTB 16 Jun 71R II)

CROSS ENGRAM, an engram which embraces more than one engram chain. The receipt of the cross engram, containing as it does the convergence of two or more engram chains, is often accompanied by a "nervous breakdown" or the sudden insanity of an individual. A cross engram may occur in a severe accident, in prolonged or severe illness under antagonistic circumstances, or a nitrous oxide operation. (DTOT, p.115)

CROSSOVER, 1. the area in the center of a GPM is the crossover. This means the RI's which cause the PC to become an opponent of his own goal. (HCOH 4 Apr 63) 2. crossover means where the individual ceases to be for the goal, and starts to be against the goal. (SH Spec 329, 6312C12)

CRS, course. (BPIJ 5 Nov 72RA)

C/S, 1. case supervisor. (HCOB 23 Aug 71) 2. commodore's staff. (BPL 5 Nov 72 RA)

CSC, Clearing Success Congress. (HCOB 29 Sept 66)

C/S 53, the basic list to get TA up or down into normal range. Assessed M-5, reading items handled then reassessed etc. to F/Ning assessment. Done well with good basic auditing this action should not need to be frequently repeated on a case. TA going high or low in later auditing after C/S 53 already fully handled is normally handled with the correction list for that action (e.g. L4BR when TA high after listing or WCCL on word clearing, etc.). EP is C/S 53 F/Ning on assessment with TA in normal range. (BTB 11 Aug 72RA) [This list has been revised a number of times and its current number is C/S 53RJ.]

C/SHEET, also ch. sheet or /sht. Abbreviation for checksheet. (BTB 12 Apr 72R)

C/SING IN THE CHAIR, the auditor may not C/S in the auditing chair while auditing the pc. If he has no case supervisor he writes the C/S before session and adheres to it in session. To do something else and not follow the C/S is called C/Sing in the chair and is very poor form as it leads to Q & A. (HCOB 23 Aug 71)

CS.1, 1. a general C/S which covers the basics of getting a pc sessionable. The product is an educated pc who can run Scn or Dn easily and get case gain. (BTB 8 Jan 71R) 2. purpose: to give pcs new to Dn or Scn and to give previously audited pcs as needed, the necessary data and R-factor on basics and auditing procedure so that he understands and is able and willing to be audited successfully.

CYCLE, 1. in Scn, a cycle just means from the beginning to the conclusion of an intentional action. (Aud 39) 2. a span of time with a beginning and an end=a section of the totality of time with a beginning and an end=in beginningless and endless time one can set out periods which do have a beginning and an end insofar as action is concerned. (FOT, p.19)

CYCLE OF ACTION, 1. the sequence that an action goes through, wherein the action is started, is continued for as long as is required and then is completed as planned. (Scn AD) 2. the creation, growth, conservation, decay and death or destruction of energy and matter in a space. Cycles of action produce time. (PXL, p.8) See also ACTUAL CYCLE OF ACTION.

CYCLE OF AN ORGANISM, the cycle of an organism, a group of organisms or a species is inception, growth, re-creation, decay and death. (HPF, p.172)

CYCLE OF AN OVERT, it goes like this. (1) a being doesn't get the meaning of a word or symbol. (2) this causes the being to misunderstand the area of the symbol or word (who used it, whatever it applied to). (3) this causes the being to feel different from or antagonized toward the user or whatever of the symbol and so makes it all right to commit an overt. (4) having committed the overt, the being now feels he has to have a motivator and so feels caved in. This is the stuff of which Hades is made. This is the trap. This is why people get sick. This is stupidity and lack of ability. (HCOB 8 Sept 64)

CYCLE OF A UNIVERSE, could be said to be the cycle of creation, growth, conservation, decay and destruction. This is the cycle of an entire universe or any part of that universe. It is also the cycle of life forms. (Scn 8-8008, p.97)

CYCLE OF MIS-DEFINITION, (1) a person didn't grasp a word, then (2) didn't understand a principle or theory, then (3) became different from it, commits and committed overts against it, then (4) restrained himself or was restrained from committing these overts, then (5, being on a withhold (inflow) pulled in a motivator. Not every word somebody didn't grasp was followed by a principle or theory. An overt was not committed every time this happened. Not every overt committed was restrained. So no motivator was pulled in. Every nattery or nonprogressing student or pc is hung in the above 1,2,3,4,5 cycle. And every such student or pc has a misdefined word at the bottom of that pile. (HCOB 21 Feb 66)

CYCLE OF MOTION, go from a no change to a change to a no change. (SH Spec 14, 6106C14)

CYCLE OF THE ROCK, a person (1) failed to communicate himself; (2) started using something to communicate with; (3) put the last item on automatic and it created for him; (4) it failed. The rock, itself, when first located will be a solution to many earlier cycles as described above. And so, a rock is peeled off cycle by cycle as above. (HCOB 29 Jul 58)

CYCLIC PROCESS, a repetitive process which causes the preclear to cycle on the time track as in recall type processes. (HCOB 29 Sept 65, Cyclical and Non-Cyclical Processes)

CYCLIC PSYCHOTIC, a psychotic who becomes completely enturbulated during certain periods of the day, or of the week, or of the month. This type is generally running on a time factor contained in the engram. The incident may have occurred on the twenty-fifth of the month and continued to the thirtieth of every month. Or the incident may have occurred at ten o'clock at night so the psychotic is only insane at ten o'clock every night. (SOS, Bk. 2, p.190)
