A lecture given
by L. Ron Hubbard on
23 July 1963
All right? Okay.
What's the date?
Audience: 23rd.
Twenty-third? Well,
what do you know!
All right, 23rd
July AD 13, Saint Hill Special Briefing Course.
I had two choices
here. I'm working on an assembly line process for you. I'm trying to smooth out
your dating problems and that sort of thing. I'm collecting a lot of
information on that, all of it very important as far as tone arm action is
concerned. I followed through that wrong date or bad dating or misconception of
date is the reason the tone arm action is -- and I found out that the pc's time
sense is his basic aberration. And therefore I'm working like mad to get you
processes that rehabilitate a pc's time sense.
Of course, the most
exaggerated statement you could make is the time for a pc to run engrams is
when he can call the date. And if you did that - if you did that, it'd be
absolutely sure that the pc would be getting tone arm action on R3R, see. And
discovered a new rundown of R2H. You're using an R2H in a training pattern
right now. Well, R2H exists, of course, as a highly therapeutic process, too,
prac -- more or less the way you're doing it.
But I've been
refining it. Refining it. Getting it down to about a ten-step action, which
gives the maximum tone arm action. Aims straight -- I looked around for
something I could use, you see, to rehabilitate a pc's time sense, and there it
was lying right in our laps. And so I'm refining that to just rehabilitate a
pc's time sense. And it does wonders for a case. And finally found that I may
be looking at a one-shot OT process. And simple as though it -- as it is.
Actually, it
becomes much simpler as a process to run than the one you're running right now
as R2H. But that is not quite ready to release. There are a couple of questions
that are being -- still kicking around about it, such as what happens when the
pc gets into an engram and you say, "When was that?" and he is very
surprised indeed to be in this engram. And then you say, Well, its bypassed
charge is so-and-so and so-and-so." And he has to put that together for
you while sitting in the middle of one engram -- all very interesting. I've got
to answer a couple of questions like that and then I'll release it.
The common denominator
-- which is what I've been looking for -- of case levels is simply that and no
more. It's just the time sense of the individual. That doesn't mean it's how
well-timed he is, or this doesn't mean that Gene Krupa and so forth -- that's
rhythm sense. But just time sense. The whenness of things. And the
deterioration of this sense is what gives you the case levels. And that is
about the end of that.
There's tremendous
ramifications to this. There are lots of other things that can make the pc
unhappy or aberrated or significances by the ton. But a common denominator of
case levels is time sense. And knowing that, then you could probably establish
case levels, which we were trying to do by test a short time ago, by some kind
of a test of time sense. The whenness of things. As simple as this:
"What's your earliest memory in this lifetime?" you see?
And the pc says,
"Well let's see, I can remember back to when I was twenty-nine," and
so forth. You've probably got a case level -- probably a case level 7 or something
like that, you see. We got a case level 6, something like that.
And you say,
"Well, what's the farthest back you can remember?" and so forth. And
he's trying to puzzle around and he looks awful cloudy and you wonder what he's
puzzling about so hard. And he's trying to find out if he can remember back to
breakfast. Well, you've got a case level 8, don't you see? Or, if he can't
grasp what you're asking him. No, but it is an indication here, of this type of
thing. Your best -- your best case programing, however, is a discussion with
the pc about what process -- because you're dealing mainly with long-time pcs
-- what process have they been most interested in. And you're liable to get a
very interesting ramification out of the pc, is that they have never been
interested in the higher-level process. They were really making gains when they
were running -- and they will give you some other process.
And that merely
gives you the class of process, you know. That doesn't give you just -- don't
continue to run the process, necessarily, that they were running, that they
were interested in. But it tells you where the interest of the pc is along the
case levels and therefore you can run the pc and he will feel that he can do
these processes. And you may be running a pc who is, uncomplainingly and
actually unaware of it himself, running processes he doesn't feel he can do.
You understand? You may be doing something like this, you see.
And the pc's
sitting right there slugging and trying, and sweating at it and that sort of
thing, and you just start being -- just a discussion of interest, see. Interest
discussion, that's all. And the pc says, "Well, they so-and-so and
so-and-so" and they were really interested as they were doing some 8-C at
one time or another and they found that was terribly interesting, and actually
there's no process more interesting than that 8-C. Don't you see? You've got
your answer right there. Now, they've done an objective -- an objective-type
process is one that they feel they can do.
These are all on
the lines of estimation of cases, don't you see? But right now I have a little
assignment for you, is just have a discussion with your pc on this basis.
There's a bulletin
will be out tomorrow on this subject that's scheduled to go to HGCs. But you
will find it considerably interesting and it tells you more about this
discussion, but actually more or less just what I've just told you. Just have a
discussion with your pc as to what process has been the most interesting to him
and what does he consider an interesting process and all that sort of thing,
and put it down in your auditor's report. And don't necessarily shift his
gears, but this is -- might be very revelatory to you and also to the pc.
Now, I have a
reality on doing a process that is too steep. I've never had this reality
before and -- this is the subject of today's lecture -- and I got confused and
-- didn't much appeal to me. Process was just a bit too steep. That's a
brand-new experience for me, but I can sympathize .with the guy who's wading
along now and doing that sort of thing, running something that's a bit over 'is
'ead.
And I had some
adventures recently that I'm going to tell you about in this lecture. And if
any of you faint or anything like that, why fall straight back in the chair,
not into the aisle and so forth. And if you start screaming or anything, why
the -- I think the pavilion speakers are on, aren't they? You can go out there
and scream. Anyway, the difficulties -- the difficulties of exploration are
based on the fact that you can most easily go when you know.
And I think the
British motorist deserves the gold medal amongst all gold medals for knowing
before they go. I remember one time getting a routing from the Royal Automobile
Club for an African trip and they gave me little cards. And everything was
measured off in tenths of a mile. And I read these cards all over. You went
over the top of a brow of a hill, you see, and there was a small cairn of
stones to the right and that was 1.7 miles from the point you had just left,
you see. And then down at the bottom there was a small bridge and it had a barn
on the right, you see, and that was 1.85 miles, you see. And that -- going
along and -- I read all these cards and didn't bother to take the trip because
it was...
But exploration has
its disadvantages. Definitely has its disadvantages, because more than once,
why, one finds himself out at the end of a ridge and there's no way back -- he
can't get up the sheer surfaces he's come down -- and he looks in front of him
and he finds there's no way down. And that is it. And so it can be too much of
a good thing, not knowing before you go. You actually can't know too much about
where you're going before you go when you're doing anything like exploration of
the time track. And I've been fronting up on this for some little while and I
find very few times have I had any faint heart or upset along that until just
recently. And I got the creeps, frankly.
And well, it starts
like this -- it starts like this: I was up in the Van Allen belt -- this is
factual, and I don't know why they're scared of the Van Allen belt, because
it's simply hot. You'd be surprised how warm space is. Get down amongst the
clouds and so forth, it can get pretty cold and damp. But you get well up and sunlight
shining around and that sort of thing, it's quite hot. And the Van Allen belt
was radioactively hot. A lot of photons get trapped in that area and so forth.
And I was up there watching the sunrise. Well, that was very interesting. And
my perception was very good, and I was taking a look at Norway and Essex and
the places around, you know, and getting myself sort of oriented. And then
something happened to me that I didn't know quite what had happened to me. I
thought some facsimiles must have appeared in front of me, but they didn't look
like facsimiles. And some other things happened and I had a feeling like I
might possibly go into the sun. And a few other little uncomfortablenesses
there where... That wasn't what awed me. But I got confused. I got confused
because the sun was suddenly larger and then it was smaller and somehow or
another I was doing a change of space process that I myself was not familiar
with. And it made me sort of bite off my thetan fingernails just a little bit,
you know?
And I said,
"Well, I'd better look this over a little more thoroughly." And
proceeded to do so. And a bit later that day, why I did some reach and withdraw
on the polar cap and so on -- orientation. And we got quite a bit out of this
because I was able to establish some reach and withdraw process - I knew how
the world must look to somebody who was in a body and had pictures appearing in
front of them and that sort of thing. I knew they could get kind of queasy
about this situation.
Well, that wasn't
what overawed me. What overawed me was when I found out I hadn't been looking
at pictures. That was upsetting, becau -- I was invalidating my own perception.
It didn't look like pictures, don't you see. And I was busy invalidating my own
perception and so on, and I wondered why I was nervous. That was what was
really puzzling me. What was this all about? And I couldn't quite figure out
what had happened and then I finally did find out what had happened. And I had
actually appeared in a dispatcher's tower on Venus and had appeared back where
I was above here. And had done it like that. With no volition on my own part at
all. That was upsetting.
You start doing
appear and disappear, you see, automatically and you say, "What's
happening? What's happening? You mean to say I'm going to be prowling around in
the stratosphere and all of a sudden find myself appearing and disappearing
elsewhere without any volition on my own part?" Actually, I didn't think
all this through until later.
But I thought,
"Well, prowling around up here is a little bit over my head just now. And
I'd better know a little bit more before I go." So, that was some weeks
ago, and since that time I've been exploring around and finally found out what
I was looking at. And you talk about a fellow -- he's brought home this nice
pet, tame variety of snake, you see, and he's put it in a box. And then a
snakeologist comes along and he says, "Good heavens, man! Where did you
find that king cobra?" That's the way I felt. I'd been looking at where
you go every time you die, see? And I finally found out what this planet is and
why life is so loopy.
Now, we've got some
of this back in 52. Dishing it out intellectually; I had a good intellectual
reality on it. We'd talk about between lives area and we'd dished all this off
the cuff. This is not data which is unknown to us, don't you see? But that
isn't the same as going there. That isn't the same as going there with your
eyes wide open. And realizing that all you had to do was to be there at the
exact point which you're supposed to appear at and willy-nilly you would have
gone over Niagara Falls through the implant, you see? And that is what has
happened to me last few weeks, and... So I've been studying this situation very
hard and, as I say, I've come up with the data with regard to it.
Of all the nasty,
mean and vicious implants that have ever been invented, this one is it. And has
been going on for thousands of years. It's the most complete memory wipeout
system and the biggest bunch of lies that anybody ever had anything to do with.
Now your
understanding is that when you die, why somehow or another about fifteen
minutes later you appear in another body. Let's look at this thing from a time
disorientation basis. That is a lie. It takes sixty-nine days plus. More than
sixty-nine days. And you very often go -- see, this has upset some of our
calculations. We've wondered what has happened to some of our people, why they
didn't show up again immediately, that sort of thing. You've gone as long as
eight or nine years between death and birth.
Now what happens --
I'll just give you a fast rundown on this situation -- what happens is, is
you've got a compulsion to appear; this was why this yo-yo. see? You got a
compulsion to appear at the between lives return-point. And, of course, you
just do a disappear at death and an appear there. You don't travel to there,
see. It's all nicely implanted and you're supposed to arrive at this exact
point. And having arrived at this point you go through the works. And the works
consist of a false death given to you in pictures. You're caught there and
beamed in, and you get a bunch of pictures which they have taken -- these
aren't your pictures -- and it tells you all about the death you just died.
Only that's not the death you just died. They give you a completely false
death.
Now, this gives us
a moment of pause, right at this point. This is alleged by the way, to be a
fifteen-day time track. It isn't. It isn't. It's days, but it isn't fifteen
days. And it says it's a fifteen-day time track, see, and this is fifteen days
from where you last were. It starts with a repetitive picture which gets you
good and lost. In other words they keep giving you this same picture and this
same picture and this same picture so that when you try to back out of the
incident you keep running into the same picture, and you keep thinking that
you've got the beginning of the incident and you haven't. You've got a picture
in the incident, see, and then you go to an earlier picture and you think
you've got the picture now that starts the incident, and that's wrong, too. So
the trick is to get ahead of it.
But that is -- can
be varied one way or the other, and I needn't go on about this, but usually you
see an actual scene and then you see a picture of a scene. So then you can't
really get outside the pictures in order to begin the incident, see, so you
can't find basic on the incident. That's all that amounts to.
All right, well
this whole series of pictures represented as happening in the space of fifteen
days, counted off day after day, gives you your death which is a false death.
And it's not the right death at all. Matter of fact, in scouting this in
session, I found a death whereby I got me 'ead blown off about 1150. And they
showed me a picture of a death by exploding bombards. It was very interesting,
because they didn't have bombards in 1150. Get the idea? They didn't have them
for another couple of hundred years, see. They weren't common. So they slip.
But these pictures
they show of your death are all Earth pictures. I don't know how we explain
this. It could be explained by them coming down and taking some pictures. I'd
hate to explain it so esoterically as they pick up somebody's photograph and
photograph his facsimiles, because in this particular character it wasn't
possible. Either that or they, in some fashion, preordain the destination of
the society at that point and expect your pictures will be concerned with that,
don't you see? But they are Earth pictures, and they compare to the historical
periods of Earth. For instance, a death at 750 -- you get knocked off your
horse, or something of the sort or die in bed with your boots off, and you go
up there and find yourself having died in a battle amongst knights. And have a
helmet sitting on a cross as your grave and so forth. That's not your grave,
but it's a Norman helmet. Interesting, you see. Messed up like fire drill. In
other words, they give you the wrong death. That's the way it begins.
Now, you move up to
a point called the year zero. And thank God they've got a year zero, because
you can always date the incident by dating the year zero, because there is no
year zero on your time track. So, when you want to look -- take one of these
incidents apart for dating, always look for a hole, Look for a hole in the
incident, you see, and you'll find something like, well there's a year zero
there. Well, good -- date the year zero. For God's sakes don't date the
incident! And I'll show you why in just a moment.
Because they give
you a future history of your life: This is going to be your life. Television
program "This Is Your Life" has no bearing on the thing at all, but I
often wondered why I could never bear the stinking program. But this is
"This Will Be Your Life." And they now give you from the year zero,
which they communicate to you as the year zero -- this is given in another
room. This is given in a room alongside -- another chamber. See, your first
fifteen-day period, that all finishes up, see -- alleged fifteen days, see?
Then you go to the
year zero, and this is a great big room -- great big room. And this screen is a
whitish colored screen -- surround -- a whitish surround to a copper grid. This
copper grid is many feet long. I wouldn't -- haven't tape measured it; didn't
have a tape measure! I'm not really up there very high yet, I can't carry
things around with me. Anyway, it's -- oh, I don't know -- at a guess,
seventy-five feet, hundred and twenty-five feet, hundred and fifty feet,
something like that, copper grid. And it's very long and high, but it's much
narrower than it is long, don't you see? Be on the order of about three feet
high and seventy-five feet long, or five feet high and a hundred and fifty feet
long, something of that sort, you see.
And this has some
compulsive effect upon the thetan, and the whole thing is to make him make
pictures. And they don't show you your future life at all. They show you your
-- what happened to you at the year zero, at the time you entered the universe.
Now it so happens that there are a lot of incidents where people have told you
you entered the universe, and some happened not so long ago and some happened a
long time ago. And there can be such a thing as a guard room or something like
that, and there's a bunch of angels sitting around in the guard room and you
walk in in a doll body -- at the beginning of the universe, you walk in in a
doll body, you see? Slight discrepancy there. You're madly out of valence, you
see. That's you over there. But it's a facsimile of some kind or another. And
the year zero usually takes one of these facsimiles.
Now, there isn't
really a picture in the whole sequence of the next section of this. There
aren't any pictures, you understand, except yours. So what actually happens is
from the year zero to the year one trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion
years in the future, you're given a compulsion to mock up your own track on
this screen. And date by date by date by date by date, from the year zero
forward to one trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion years, you're given
a compulsion to put your time track up there. And all that's very interesting.
You finally come to
the second significant date, which is one trillion trillion trillion trillion
trillion years in the future. This is the wrong date, the wrong-date cake if
there ever was any. But you actually have put your own facsimiles from your own
year zero forward to that far from what you considered the year zero. Of
course, this makes a scramble, too. But they're just your own pictures.
Remember, there wasn't a single picture in the whole thing except what you put
there. But what did you put up there? Man, you put up the early implants -- you
put up the Glade, the Bear, the Gorilla, the Helatrobus Implants. You put up
the whole lousy lot; entrapments and everything else. And you just did that,
and this was probably in the course of the next sixty days. Not fifteen minutes
-- sixty days. Long time, isn't it? Sixty days of restimulation. And wrong
dates.
Those are all your
pictures. You scan somebody through that sequence and what are you scanning him
through? You're scanning him through the misdated Helatrobus Implants. You're
scanning him through anything and everything that you can think of, all
misdated. So you'd say, "Well, all right, you can't scan through these
things, so it's impossible to get through it." And this was about the time
I started to feel queasy and felt that I was just being run just a little bit
over my head. I was scanned through it twice and I felt that was a little bit
over my head.
Because to take at
a gulp a scan through all of the goals of the Helatrobus Implant in one single
pass, it made me feel just a little bit odd. And I felt, "This is a little
bit too steep for me. I'd better find some way to take this thing apart so it
can be taken apart."
All right, so
there's this middle period. That's in the main room, the middle period. And how
a thetan is moved through there I don't know yet. I think he must be moved
there -- through there on a very slow endless belt proposition. Very slowly.
Fantastic slow speed! Because he spends sixty days going past this
cotton-picking screen, see? It's not that big. Putting his pictures on it.
Now we get to the
third sequence. And this is far more interesting because they furnish all the
pictures, which I think is very sweet of them. They don't now try to pick up
any pictures. They throw you, usually -- nearly always the same sequence. This
is a very, very stable sequence. It's a bunch of pictures, and they have some
-- there's a -- they use a wavelength communication system, by the way.
Thought-concept wavelength communication system is all I can make out of it.
Not words. But you do hear some sound, and part of it is a baby crying, and
they show you picking up a body and so forth. And then they show you departing.
And of course you depart and then you get another picture of departing and you
get another picture of departing, so you really never get out of that one
either, see.
And then they show
you a picture of being sent directly down to Earth and channeled straight into
the body of a newborn baby. I think it's awfully nice. And you even hear the
baby cry. I think that's good. That's good, it's very clever. And part of this
-- and all through this thing, you've got a false emotion of "We're just
good Joes and we're doing our best for you." And you get the feeling,
"Well, we've..." I can imagine -- there's one thought concept in
there which is terribly interesting, which I imagine you girls have
occasionally been startled at, which is "We've treated you like a
gentleman. Remember, we've treated you like a gentleman."
Anyway -- you want
to know why the girls are always wearing men's sweaters and so on. But the
whole idea and the whole emotional tone that's shot at you all during the rest
of this duress, knock-about, restimulation, misdating, scramble-up washout is,
"We're being nice." See? As a matter of fact you'll find that this --
I'll bet that you'll occasionally get a pc who will say, "Well, they
treated me well. I couldn't get along without this." You know, that sort
of thing. Because that's the prevailing emotion. No anger, there's nothing
there. The light touch, see. The most effective possible touch.
Anyway, you then
see a picture of yourself separating from this planet. And how they explain
that I don't know, but it's sort of -- it's just thrown in for good measure
because it said so on the blueprint, I suppose. You've already been sent to
Earth, you see, in a -- the thing is kind of mixed up. And you even get a
picture of yourself being scooted across a desert on Earth with yucca trees
down under you and that sort of thing. And there you are. You're on your way
and you're going down to pick up this baby and everything is fine.
See, you couldn't
pick up a kid without them, you know? Ha-ha-ha-ha!
You
couldn't do that, so on. Magic, you see, they have all these babies beamed, you
know. And all they do is ride you down the beam and you pick up the baby and
you're all set. And there you are and so forth. And this thing, then, with the
multiple end so that you can't find the end of it easily (you know, the end and
then the end and then the end and then the end -- which is the end? and so
forth) finally winds up with what actually happens to you: you're simply
capsuled and dumped in the gulf of lower California. Splash! To hell with you.
And you're on your own, man. And if you can get out of that and through that
and wander around through the cities and find some girl who looks like she's
going to get married or have a baby or something like that, you're all set. And
if you can find a maternity ward to a hospital or something, you're okay. And
you just eventually just pick up a baby. You're strictly on your own, man. In a
state of total amnesia and gahh! Having been lied to to this degree with your
track all scrambled, see.
Well, in this
sequence you're given a compulsion that the next time you die you must appear
on the landing stage. And that's it. That's the whole ruddy, lousy,
cotton-picking lot. This is an interesting -- an interesting thing, because this
is the most vicious engram I have ever seen set up. To scan through that thing
is asking you to scan through a restimulation of a trillion trillion trillion
trillion trillion years of your own time track. Just asking you to do it like
-- just like that, see. "Oh, that's all right, just scan through it, you
know. Ho-ho!" Can't do it, man.
And to find the
beginning of it -- well, there are other ones with false beginnings and false
endings so that you can't get out of them easily, but the time lie: this is
specifically fifteen days. This is your last fifteen days, you see, on Earth,
you know? Only it isn't. And it's not even fifteen days. And then the last
section tells you that it's a hundred days long. You get a hundred days counted
off to you in there. But it isn't a hundred days, it's more like about nine
days. And then having channeled you squarely into the head of your new body,
they dump you in the gulf of lower California.
Very interesting.
Because by the time you get out of that, this is a type of facsimile that can't
be run. Nobody has ever been able to approach even looking at it, so it gives
you enough queasiness so that you just tend to back right straight off from the
thing -- how the devil can you undo that?
Now, because you've
been given such a -- such a compulsion to appear there... Here I am up in the
Van Allen belt and I take a look around and I see the sun and I get myself
oriented and I'm just spotting myself around, you know, getting ready to flex a
bicep or something like this, and I just glance in the direction of Venus and I
go -- I'm on the landing stage. See, the compulsions shift me in space. I
didn't stay on the landing stage. Still, I went up and looked around the
airport, took a look around the airport. I found, oddly enough, that I'd gotten
curious about this place before, some hundreds of years ago, and had simply
hung around for a while and hadn't gone through the implant.
But this has been
going on for as long as you've been on this planet. There's lots of these --
they run somewhere in the neighborhood of two to three per century. If you've
been on this planet ten thousand years you've got -- what? Quite a few of them.
Figure it out for yourself. That's how many of these confounded things you got.
And as far as I know it hasn't changed an iota. I could -- I'm saying a little
bit more than I know now. But I think it -- it apparently was simply set up and
it's continued on. There's been no vast change of pattern, as far as I know.
But I'm prepared to amend that when I start looking at a few early facsimiles
on it, which I haven't yet.
The point is this:
the Helatrobus Implants, the Gorilla Implants, the Bear Implants, way back
thetan fights and all of this kind of thing -- you got through all that. You
got through all that and you were still OT. They used to say about me that I'd
never been the same after the second Helatrobus, you know? I used to
occasionally snarl at people more than I used to earlier. But before I hit this
place I was on the same post for eighty trillion years, same post, same name.
Give you some idea of stability of identity.
Mary Sue gave the
cue on this thing. She said, "Look at how hard they have to work to keep
you from being OT!" Hey, now, that's quite a thought! Isn't that quite a
thought? Hm? Now you look at this. You look at this, now. The complete idiocy
of it. Somebody sits up on Venus -- there are probably some other stations
around up in the system. This one's on Venus. I notice that we all believe that
Venus has a methane atmosphere and is unlivable. I almost got run down by a
freight locomotive the other day -- didn't look very uncivilized to me. I'm
allergic to freight locomotives, they're always running into you.
Now we notice that
Mars doesn't have any atmosphere either and won't support life. In spite of the
fact that it turns green and red and purple with the seasons, it doesn't
support life. We understand -- there's lots of things we understand about this
system -- heh-heh! Isn't it? But this is a carefully maintained station. And a
space-opera, meat-body type society maintains it very carefully. They have a
hospital, there's space craft hanging around there, dispatcher stations,
landing platforms, this type of thing. It's all highly civilized, but they
carefully maintain this one. And it's very interesting, they maintain this one.
They've maintained it for thousands of years without any change. Why, it's
fascinating. Why are they maintaining this thing? Why? Why is it so important
to them?
Don't be deluded by
the atmosphere they pump into you -- the emotion they pump into you during the
implant, that it's all for the best in this best of all possible worlds, man.
It might be that, "We've treated you like a gentleman," but the fact
of the case is, I classify that as a dirty trick. Why is it so interesting
whether or not somebody gets off this planet? Well frankly, your answer is
practically as good as mine. I could make a few guesses on this, but that's
about all.
But the rest of
this universe isn't run this way. It's a question of where are we? Why? Well, I
know this: that onto this planet there's a great deal of dumping has gone on.
Stuff from the nearby galaxy -- not this galaxy but from the next galaxy over
and so forth, is going on here. I know they take political prisoners and guys who
they don't want around, but it's less personal than you think. They just have
excess population so they start to get rid of their excess population, you see?
They've got a revolt, or you're on the wrong side of a war, or something like
that, and they pick you up in droves and ice-cube you and throw you into a sea
someplace.
I know this planet
has been subjected to that and several planets in this immediate end of this
galaxy have been subjected to that -- that I know. But somebody must have taken
a great deal of interest in this fact. And somebody must be awfully afraid.
Somebody must be awfully afraid. You could almost say it isn't so many -- how
many are here, but it might also be a question of who's here. Think of the cost
-- now let's think of it in terms of just a society, you see -- think of the
cost of maintaining a huge station or several stations, its maintenance, light,
power, wages. Think of maintaining it on a basis of hard work, because it is.
Look at the volume that station handles. How many people die on this planet in
any given day? Well that's how many guys are started in on the beginning of
that line in any day. That's a lot of people, man! That's something on the
order of two and a half billion implants every half-century. That's quite a volume.
Of course somebody may not say that's a great volume, but look at the length of
the implant.
Now, if it were a
two-second implant, I would say well, yeah, anybody could handle that. But it
-- I know that it's more than sixty-nine days. And I know the stuff is ferried
back here. Why, I think that's all very interesting. That this is a -- this
looks to me like a very expensive proposition. And remember this has been going
on since before the days of Egypt. Way back. Without any change. What industry!
What enthusiasm!
So we ask these
various questions: Who's here, and who are we? See, we can ask a lot of
questions out of this. I don't pretend to have the answers to these questions.
There's no interpretation I'm giving it particularly beyond the interpretation
-- same interpretation I'm telling you about the room you live in. I've seen
the room. And you're just beginning to look at it.
Now, the amount of
duress necessary to produce a continuous degraded state can be measured
thereby. Look at the hard work to keep people aberrated. Now, a few months ago
I was telling you about if you were just left alone for a while, you'd snap out
of it. Remember? If you were just left alone for a while, you'd snap out of it.
The universe itself is therapeutic. But look at how hard they have to look at
it. I know that in any given situation somebody has to be awfully active to
maintain the situation in a bad state. Situations have to be maintained in a
bad state, they just don't naturally exist in a bad state. And that's very
definitely true of people.
If you were left
alone, even if you could put in two or three hundred years at it, you'd start
to snap out of your hop. See, you have to pick up the next baby anyhow, all off
your own bat. Well, supposing you just picked up the next baby without the
between lives implant to slow you down? Well, I find that would be Quite
interesting. Quite interesting thought, because right there you're looking at
world clearing.
We got several ways
that we can whip this situation. We're actually talking about an existing
situation. We're talking about the situation that your pc is sitting in, in
that pc chair in an auditing session. There is his PTP. How the hell is he
going to get out of here?
Well, I know how to
get out of here -- I could have went as a matter of fact. Just don't appear in
this immediate vicinity of the solar system. Go back and find your friends and
bring some battle cruisers in. But the point I'm making here is: The key is,
the second you find yourself free, to appear, don't you see? Well, I appeared
and I said to hell with that and stepped back up above here again. Said now
what the hell's happened here? What's this funny compulsion? And ran that on
down, that's it.
Well actually, it
doesn't take much to get rid of the compulsion. Now, in exteriorization, it is
very easy for a thetan to exteriorize if you have him be in some place he's
familiar with. Now, supposing Scientologists just elected a place to be when
they kicked the bucket. And supposing, why, we simply ran out -- and actually
it's just a section of this implant, and even though it jams the case up, who
cares -- run out that compulsion, even by repeater technique, don't you see? We
can do that, see. Run that compulsion to appear over there, you see. And then tell
the guy very strong and hard, "Well now, where is a good place that you're
very familiar with? Well, when you die, appear there. Now remember that. When
you die, appear such-and-such a place." Different place.
Two or three
hundred years, even with no processing, you'd be free. In other words you'd
live it out. Look at the amount of time that's just been bought. Because
frankly, it wouldn't take more than a couple of hours to do this job on
anybody. If you simply told a thetan to be in a place where he was familiar
with or liked to be, he would exteriorize. You can ask somebody what he's
familiar with. He gets tangled up sometimes, thinks he's gone into a facsimile
when he's actually gone into a locale, don't you see. As far as that's
concerned, you see, you could use Saint Hill, providing you didn't -- providing
you ran out all your ARC breaks on the subject.
But the point here
is elementary. If a guy has got to pick up his own body on his -- off his own
bat anyway, well, he might as well just pick up a body off his own bat anyway.
Nobody else is going to do anything for him. In fact if you're going to give
him a -- you know very well that if -- what would happen to somebody if he had
an engram and you gave him another engram on top of it and said that his engram
didn't exist, you know how therapeutic that would be. And then you misdated
everything he's got and then told him a bunch of lies and then pulled an
emotional switch on him. You can imagine the state your pc would be in if you
did these things, so supposing you just deleted that out of the subject of
death. And somebody just was in a place they were familiar with and didn't go
back through the between lives area. And I'm telling you true, that in two or
three hundred years you would have lived it out. You'd be flexing your biceps
anyhow, relieved from that situation -- you'd be starting to take a long
breath.
Because there must
be considerable fear connected with this. Perhaps the fear of death is mainly
the fear of the between lives area. May not be a fear of death at all.
Certainly oblivion takes place during that period. Now economic chaos would
ensue at once if people kept coming back and demanding their toys back. I'm
sure that you'd get a lot of people who would argue against this and say this
was not the best for this best of all possible worlds. They'd say, well --
well, they could say a lot of things about this. I'm frankly not very
interested in what they would say about this.
But now as
Scientologists, supposing we just started tabbing people on the shoulder and
giving them this two-hour treatment which deleted the compulsion to return to
the between lives area -- instead of that, appeared in Yankee Stadium or
something, and took off and went and found a new body? You see the only service
performed: it gives you a place to be when you're dying, see, and spares you
some of the agony of death. See, it gives you a place to be as the only service
performed. All the rest of them cut your throat, see. Well you can easily
perform that service. Next thing you know you start cutting down their
customers.
Now, a couple of
things stand in the road of all this. You should know this, a couple of
questions are unanswered here. How close is the liaison between these jerks --
I mean these nuts -- I mean these fellows -- and Earth. How close a liaison do
they maintain? Do they care anything about Earth at all? They must have seen a
space probe going by the other day -- they must be aware of some interplanetary
action taking place right here. What they going to say about it? When in the
last two weeks I've seen a full armored spaceship sitting on a landing port,
with mine own eyes. What they going to do? I don't think they'll do anything. I
think they're hung with their own petard. The moment they appear, they blow the
show. I don't think they'd do anything. I just think they get fixed on a
wrongness, and they're continuously executing this wrongness. They continuously
-- so they insist on its rightness and they think that's going to solve
everything.
I'm interested that
jamming the track to this degree, and giving so little time period amongst
incidents as they do to the person, is giving people a weird time -- zzzzzzzzz.
So that you have fan-job airplanes only occupying a third of a century, where
as a matter of fact in most societies they'll be happy and content with the
fan-job airplane for anything up to a billion years. Somebody invented a
fan-job airplane. Fine. That's good. Over here -- over here, we've got jet
planes. Now we've got supersonic planes. Now we've got spaceships. You see?
Pocketa-pocketa-pocketa-pocketa. It's this acceleration. I've interest -- been
interested in that because I've seen it as quite different here than it is in
any other place I've ever been. And this could be the primary factor. They give
you your time track such a fast jam together that everybody gets an idea of
more accelerated motion of the way progress has got to occur.
There could be
other explanations. There could be an explanation such as a base is being
created here for takeover of this particular galaxy, since this type of implant
is not native to this galaxy -- inspecting your own track you will see that is
the case. It's the next galaxy. These could be an enemy to this galaxy, sitting
there quietly, letting a manufacturing or production base build up for an
attack into this galaxy. These could be simply prison guards. And with tacit
consent from one and all, far and wide, why any of you agitators that cut up a
fuss or didn't join the local AMA or something like this -- they capsulized you
and threw you down here and they know very well that this is a prison.
Now, I know that
this is known in some peculiar way, because bulletin board notices exist all
over the place with regard to this planet. They say, "No landings on
Earth." Why does everybody comply with this? I got here, why, accidentally
landing here up in the Himalayas. But why does everybody comply with this? Why
is this planet stayed away from? I don't know -- how many visitors did Alcatraz
have? See, this is about where we sit with regard to this situation.
Now, there's
another factor. Another factor here that's quite interesting. If they have
pictures of Earth in order to show you how you died, did they get them on
Earth, or are they picking them up on some weird mind reading fact off of
beings as they come up there? Have they -- have they actually figured out how
to photograph a facsimile? If they've figured that kind of thing out, why then
that's explained. But how do they know what's going on here? That is not
finally answered, don't you see?
Now, they haven't
done anything about these space probes. The boys have been at it here, shooting
stuff off into the heavens for the last several years and nothing has been done
about this. Now, knowing very well, I suppose, that any time they exceeded a
certain zone or area -- they know very well that an armored cruiser could blow
anything that this planet could build like a kid's toys out of the sky, so
maybe they're not worried about it. Or maybe they're counting on a decimation
of population, a destruction of industry in atomic war.
Another question
is: How thoroughly do these people influence the affairs of Earth? We can
understand that Earth is a very, very strange planet. I've never seen
populations behave with the same hecticness and weirdness. And, of course, if
people who were rather revolutionary or upset or nonconformist were picked up
uniformly and concentrated on one planet, you'd get a -- almost an ungovernable
situation. Which I think rather tends to explain maybe what this is all about.
I've seen other planets go nutty, but only when they were in external stress of
great magnitude, otherwise they were rather peaceful. The days before the
Helatrobus Implants on some of the planets attacked by those people, you
couldn't maintain a government. It was everything going to pieces all the time.
But that's an interesting question.
All right. What
degree of influence is exerted against this planet then? Now, astrologists may
have something -- the astrologists may have something in their favor when you
realize that these planets swinging closer to Earth would be easier to travel
-- would make it easier to travel to Earth, and further from Earth you'd have
less traffic or less this or that, and so you'd have less things happening on
Earth, don't you see. The proximity of planets, combinations of planets or that
sort of thing, maybe just to the degree of the interspacial relationships of
the thing and so on -- maybe this has some influence on the situation, I wouldn't
know. I'm just discussing here points.
Now, here's another
point. Where do we sit? I think between thee and me, that's the point we're
interested in. Yeah, well, they're maybe counting on an atomic war wiping out
space opera and so forth. Space probes already may have excited their
curiosity, there may be some purpose in this, but that they took no action when
the first space probes passed them either says they're back of space probing or
says some other explanation exists for that, so we can neglect all that. What
is the -- what is the role which we occupy in this? This is very, very, very
interesting.
Now, that I release
this might be a source of great worry to you. But remember, it's been in a
book, one of the books carefully seized by the Fools and Druggists -- the Fools
and Drug Addicts. That's the new name. Ah, that's a good name, isn't it? The
Fools and Drug Addicts. Anyway, was What to Audit, and the between lives area
are described in the book What to Audit. This is not unknown. What to Audit is many,
many years old. It's been kicking around for a long time, been available to
almost anybody and look, nothing's happened. In other words, the information
has already been released when the publicity on the subject of Dianetics was at
a much higher pitch than it is on the subject of Scientology. So, what is this?
If we really started to run with the ball and so forth, we expect a couple of
meat bodies in the usual white jumper that comes along with the space opera
(except those guys by the way wear khaki -- it's an odd-looking uniform), we
expect them to appear on the front doorsteps and say, "Are you a
Scientologist? Well, there's the spaceship," and they take you up and
throw you in the can in -- at Pluto, or something. Is this a kind of action
here that we might expect?
Or is it a
situation where we are no threat to them? It'll all sort of pass away? Or are
they in a state where this covert action, going forward for so many years,
would tolerate almost anything before they would disclose themselves? Or do
they count absolutely on the exact camouflage which we have? We are ridiculed.
That's our camouflage. I should think -- I should think if anybody was in the
know or any liaison line existed between these two systems... Maybe Kennedy and
other presidents find this out the moment they step in the White House, you
know, maybe that's what makes them look so old in two or three years, the way
they cave in. Maybe they find out, "Well, you boys are slaves, you see
and..."
No, I don't think
anything like that happens. But supposing -- supposing you did get a liaison
line between this society and them, what would be their best reports on us? Oh,
"fraudulent bunch of quacks," "the space opera science
fictioneers," "bums." The very best authorities, the AMA, the Fools
and Drug Addicts, the newspapers, which is where they get their news, radio
broadcasts, television broadcasts, all forms of news, represent us as being
totally unimportant, ridiculous and so forth. I think they could have all of
our books sitting on a desk up there right this minute and laugh themselves
silly, without a bit of worry about the whole thing. They'd certainly not blow
the show for it. And they'd have to blow the show, you understand. They'd have
to appear. Not covertly. You don't bring spaceships down in a DEW
line-monitored society, privately. Must be getting very hard for these
characters to deliver the goods these days. We're past the radar screens, and
that sort of thing.
I think they could
be sitting there with the whole library in front of them and they wouldn't have
any impulse to do anything. They'd say, "Well, a few of them and so on,
and it's not important and so forth and you wouldn't really want to do that,
and after all we never have done anything like this and besides, the atomic war
is coming right up. And there's no danger from these people because they're a
bunch of frauds anyway. There's always some madman, you know, gets some kind of
an idea like this, and it all passes away and so forth. Look at the Buddhist.
We let him conquer three quarters of Asia, and he was trying to end this
life-death cycle and keep from coming through our carefully maintained plant,
and he never made it. Never did anything. So there's your precedent. Nothing
happened. Nothing happened." No, nothing happened, but I was standing on
their landing stage the other day. Nothing happened.
The funny part of
it is, is a lot of us have friends. That's interesting, too. And if you have to
work this hard to keep somebody aberrated, and working this hard you still
aren't successful in preventing a breakthrough the way we have made in this
society -- in spite of all of the cockeyed, contrary propaganda lies and
nonsense which are leveled at this society, we are making progress. And if this
continues, we will make progress all the way. We're a polite gathering, and it
is no time to indulge in threats or violence or anything like that, so I won't
describe any future plans with relationship to these people.
But I think the one
thing they must be afraid of is having their planet rolled. Which of course is
the one thing that will happen to them! Anyhow, the situation -- the situation
is much more favorable to us. It shows that aberration is very difficult to
maintain. It shows that it's being actively maintained. As far as the validity
of this and the possession of one of these series of implants in your pc is
concerned, I'll vouch for it. You may not be able to run it, but it's there.
You can certainly cut a swath out of the back end of it, that stops the thing.
But to run somebody through it before he's got the track nested up, is
impossible.
So look at what we
got here. We're going along our own way. The first thing we ought to do is give
some attention to preventing further implantations of Scientologists. I've already
given you a program by which this can be done. Your next action on the thing is
dispose of them. And I can see tomorrow, I can see tomorrow -- the Chinee, he
appear on landing stage to go through his false death and he hear words,
thought-wave as follows: "Be on Earth. Support your local Scientologist.
There is no further reason to upset you this time, you've been a good
boy." And show him an "S" and double triangle, and there he
goes.
Actually you'd only
have to do this for two or three hundred years, and Earth would start to go
Clear on its own. Because it wasn't getting this continuous assistance. The
only other source of action is the psychiatrist with his prefrontal lobotomy
and his transorbital schizophrenia. And this bloke and his avidity 'for doing
everybody in, if you just left -- you know, if you just leave a psycho alone,
why he'll come out of it. But you've got to leave him alone, got to let him
have a rest. That's the best treatment for psychosis: don't do anything with a
psychotic, you see.
Well, I think all
of a sudden through finding the worst news, we also, not Pollyannaishly find
some good news, but actually find the answer to our problem. As far as the
clearing of this planet is concerned, that is the easiest end of it. The
hardest end of it is right now, right here and so forth.
Now, how can you
run this incident? That must be burning through your wits right now. Well, what
you do is get your GPMs out of the road -- they're the only thing you can't
scan through -- and get your basics on this type of incident. If you run those
two things, then the incident can be scanned. And we already have the tools by
which the incident can be run. The only thing you've got to do is make sure
that your pc gets lots of TA action in a session, and very shortly, no matter
if you ran implants or didn't run implants or something like this, they will be
jumping up there ready to be run. And the fact that they are -- and this gave
me a bad turn for a day or two -- is I thought, "Are all the things I have
run simply jammed into this and have I been running them at a wrong point in
time?" No, because they've been properly dated, I've been running them at
a right point in time, even though they were then jammed in this particular
incident. I've been running them out of the right. And I found out that not all
of them had been restimulated there. In fact, a very small portion of them had
been restimulated there, just to make it impossible to scan through the thing.
But you run down
GPMs, you date them on the time track -- you're running them at that time on
the time track, you're not running them out of the group, see. Don't worry
about that. But sometimes a pc will give you a date. Now we're dating years
ago, and their dating are years into the future. These two dates do not
conflict. Their dates are wrong, our dates are right. So redating gives you --
of any incident strips it out of this, so any time you find an engram properly
dated on the pc, you're away. See?
The amount of false
track -- at first I blanched. I thought the amount of false track I have must
be fabulous. And I tried to get away -- rid of all the discreditable incidents
by saying they were simply false track. And then I had to run out all the
invalidations because they were my own track. I thought, "Well, this is a
wonderful way out of it, there's that time when I sat incapacitated for a long
period of time and didn't feel strong anymore and so on -- that was obviously
just false track." No, no, it happened to be real. There's very little
unreal incident on the track. Very little unreal incident. When you finally get
something durationed exactly and right, you can tell whether or not it's one of
these types of implants. But the track is not the same track. It's corny track.
It's -- there's something goofy with it. The pictures you run out of the pc by
and large are the actual pictures of the pc. And when you can't run pictures on
the pc you've got a wrong date or a wrong duration. So if you get a right date
and a right duration, you can run the picture, and the picture that can be run
that way turns out to be what it is. It turns out to be a real picture or a bad
picture. Only the pc can tell you if you've got the right date and the right
duration.
So simply by
carrying on with R3R without the slightest change, carrying on with R3N without
the slightest change, you then get the time track into the kind of shape that a
pc perforce could actually scan through one of these implants no matter what
type or part of his time track had been. Takes a less number of hours than you
would think. You've got the weapons with which to do it.
You get the basic
series of implants off of any chain of implants, that is to say you get the
basics on these things out, and you'll find very rapidly and very readily that
the rest of them tend to fall away. And they desensitize. For instance, if you
get the first two items -- let's say we've got the same items firing twelve
times in a row, and if you got the first two fires clean, the rest of them
won't even click. Isn't that interesting? Whereas if you got the twelfth one,
it takes you about fifteen minutes to get all the rocket reads of it off and
then you get the eleventh one, you've got all the rocket reads to take off of
it and so forth. In other words, we've got the mechanism which turns the time
track right side to, and it takes the charge out of the place where it counts.
We've got these
various mechanisms solved. In other words, what we know already can put
somebody's time track in shape so that the person eventually can run straight
through one of these incidents, and damn the torpedoes. In fact without having
all of my time track beautifully cleaned up, I was playing tag with one of
these things my last session, and I was terribly intrigued by the fact that I
had become a bit contemptuous of it. I have moved around, I know what it is,
it's been cross-dated -- it suddenly occurred to me, "All right, so if I
find I can't scan through something here, I'll just redate it." And, sure
enough, it disappears on the back track the second you do so. So you could
probably take it from the year zero, and redate everything that appeared on the
screen in front of the pc and throw his time track back, and the next thing you
know the thing would be gone as an incident. Particularly if you were running
basic on the incident.
You can run the
beginning of it off selectively, you can run the end of it off selectively --
the last (quote) hundred days (unquote), the first fifteen days (unquote) --
without running the pc through any of his own time track restimulation. So
there's many ways this thing can be handled. We're over the hump on this
situation. But this thing must exist pretty well as a present time problem for
every pc audited. He must be afraid of death; he must be trying to keep his
body from getting sick and disappearing, simply and solely because he doesn't
want an implant at the end of this life.
All right, if you
were to solve that problem by stripping out his compulsion to appear in the
implant stage and tell him to appear someplace else, you've probably solved a
present time problem of great magnitude on the part of the pc. The truth never
hurts. It's only lies that aberrate.
The very fact that
this is a prison planet, that it is being monitored this carefully right this
minute... Right this instant, as I'm talking here, some Joe off this planet has
appeared on that landing stage and is being told how he just got through an
airplane crash, whereas the guy probably died of pneumonia. See? Right this
minute, you see. And this instant, another guy did. In other words, this is a
continuing situation that's going on and on and on and on and on. Gives you an
understanding of what's happening.
We couldn't have
run them in yesteryear; we can run them today. The best answer is to first put
the pc in shape so that he can run engrams and GPMs by making sure you can get
good tone arm action running those things on the pc. The next thing to do is to
run engrams and run implants, GPMs on the pc, until he can go over his track
rather comfortably and he can come on back on the backtrack and pick up this
other type of time dislocation implant, scan through those things and knock
them out. In other words, we've got it made.
They've been
looking down the backs of our necks and we didn't know it, for thousands of
years. Each one of us as a person and as a society as a whole. And I just want
to point out to you that the other day, I was looking down the back of theirs.
