The Cof$ abusively suppresses the practice and use of Scientology Tech by FreeZone Scientologists. It misuses the copyright laws as part of its suppression of religious freedom. They think that all freezoners are "squirrels" who should be stamped out as heretics. By their standards, all Christians, Moslems, Mormons, and even non-Hassidic Jews would be considered to be squirrels of the Jewish Religion. The writings of LRH form our Old Testament just as the writings of Judaism form the Old Testament of Christianity. We might not be good and obedient Scientologists according to the definitions of the Cof$ whom we are in protest against. But even though the Christians are not good and obedient Jews, the rules of religious freedom allow them to have their old testament regardless of any Jewish opinion. We ask for the same rights, namely to practice our religion as we see fit and to have access to our holy scriptures without fear of the Cof$ copyright terrorists. We ask for others to help in our fight. Even if you do not believe in Scientology or the Scientology Tech, we hope that you do believe in religious freedom and will choose to aid us for that reason. Thank You, The FZ Bible Association =============================================== APPENDIX STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE FOR THETA CLEARING by L. Ron Hubbard DEFINITIONS THETAN: this term designates the beingness of the individual, the awareness of awareness unit, that quantity and identity which is the preclear. One does not speak of "my thetan" any more than he would speak of "my me." Persons referring to the thetan in such a way as to make the thetan a third party to the body and the person are not only incorrect, they betoken by this a bad state of aberration. AUDITOR: the person who "audits," who computes and listens; a practitioner of Dianetics and Scientology. SOP Theta Clearing is best done by an auditor who has been theta cleared. A V (Roman numeral five) commonly acts to force a preclear to stay in his body even while pretending to free the preclear from his body. LOCATION: the thetan is an energy unit which is located in the center of the skull. It is conceived to be small, but is as large as the preclear believes it to be. SELF-DETERMINISM: self-determinism is a relative state of ability to determine location in time and space. If one can locate his facsimiles and ridges in time and space, if one is able to place persons and objects in the past, present and future in time and space, he can be considered to have high self-determinism. If one's facsimiles place him in time and space, if people can easily place one in time and space in the past, present or future, one's self-determinism is low. Willingness and unwillingness to locate things in time and space are the key relative states of sanity. ILLUSION: that which one locates himself, in time and space, on his own determinism. REALITY: that agreement upon illusion which became the MEST universe. DELUSION: things not of one's own creation, or of the MEST universe, which locate one in time and space. CERTAINTY: one is certain on a plus-or-minus basis and one can be equally certain on either. One can be certain a thing is not real or he can be certain it is real. There are three sides to this. One is certain a thing is his own illusion: this is the highest level. One is certain that a thing is a MESTuniverse reality (illusion). One can be certain that a thing is a delusion. KNOWINGNESS: knowingness depends upon certainty. ABERRATION: aberration depends upon uncertainty. THETA PERCEPTION: that which one perceives by radiating toward an object, and from the reflection, perceiving various characteristics of the object such as size, odor, tactile, sound, color, etc. Certainty of perception is increased by drilling in certainties as above. MEST PERCEPTION: recordings the thetan takes from the perception organs of the human body as a shortcut to perception (lazy perception). The body records actual wave emanations from the MEST universe; the thetan uses these recordings. ORIENTATION: determination of location in space and time, and Determination of energy quantity present. This applies to past, present, future. RIDGES: "solid" accumulations of energy which are suspended in space and time. Ridges can be handled variously. They can also explode. FACSIMILES: energy reproductions of things in the various universes. They are fixed to ridges. END OF TERMINAL: a communication line to anything has the pc at one end and something at the other end. When the end of terminal is vacated, flow dams and the pc must fix the vacated end to his own body. This is the mechanics behind the loss which brings about grief. ASTRAL BODIES: somebody's delusion. ELECTRONICS: lower and cruder manifestations of the same order of actuality of thought. TERMINALS: in facsimiles, ridges and electric motors, terminals operate, and current flows, only when they are fixed in time and space. Alternating current becomes possible only because of an overlooked item: the base of the motor, which is fixed in time and space and which keeps the terminals apart by fixing them in time and space. THE HUMAN SOUL: the pc. FREEDOM: able to position energy or matter in time and space. SLAVERY: being positioned in time and space. THE HUMAN BODY: a carbon-oxygen engine built of complex electronic ridges around the genetic entity, which animates it. THE HUMAN MIND: the thetan. STIMULUS RESPONSE: the environment of the thetan activating ridges to make them activate the body. THE REACTIVE MIND: the ridge automatic-response system. THE SOMATIC MIND: the genetic entity. SCIENTOLOGY: the science of knowing how to know. KNOWING HOW TO KNOW: being the thetan, clear of the body and its ridges, and able to handle illusion, matter, energy, space and time. THETA CLEAR: a being who is reasonably stable outside the body and does not come back into the body simply because the body is hurt. No other condition is necessary. CLEARED THETA CLEAR: a thetan who is completely rehabilitated and can do everything a thetan should do, such as move MEST and control others from a distance. A THETAN EXTERIOR: a thetan who is clear of the body and knows it, but is not yet stable outside. STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE This process is done in steps. The auditor with every preclear makes no other judgment than to begin with Step I and, failing to accomplish that immediately, to go on to Step II; if he fails to accomplish this immediately, he goes to Step III; and so on. When he is able to accomplish a step he labels the case as that step number, i.e., a III. He then begins working with that step. After a few hours work, he again starts at the top with the pc with Step I and progresses on through. Eventually the pc becomes a Step I. STEP I - POSITIVE EXTERIORIZING: Ask the preclear to step a foot back of his head. If he does, make him go back further, then up, then down, practicing placement in space and time. Then one asks him to see if there are any items in the body he would like to repair, and proceeds to let pc repair them according to pc's own ideas as to how he should do it. Then educate the pc - by making him create and destroy his own illusions - into finally getting a certainty of illusion, and from this, a certainty of perceiving the real universe with all perceptions. (Note: The realest universe is, of course, one's own illusory universe, and it should be completely rehabilitated before one attempts to much perceive or handle or worry about the MEST universe. Rehabilitated, sonic, visio, etc., of the MEST universe are very clear and very certain. Clear perception in early stages is not a test of being outside. The only test is whether the pc knows he is outside.) Failing the first line of this step, go to Step II. STEP II - NEGATIVE EXTERIORIZING: Ask the preclear not to be a foot back of his head. (See subzero tone scale, where all commands reverse.) Give him commands in the negative which will be obeyed in the positive sense. Then orient him in space and time (the thetan can be out of time badly) and thereafter treat him as a Step I case. Failing this step, go to Step III. STEP III - BY ORIENTATION: Ask the preclear, still inside, to locate the inside of his forehead. Ask him to put a pressor beam against it and push himself out the back of his head. Supplement this by asking him to reach out through the back of his head and grab the wall with a pulling beam and pull himself out. Ask him to steady himself outside and then, by means of beams, to raise and lower himself while outside and to move to various parts of the room while still outside. By orientation as a thetan, placing himself as a thetan in time and space, he becomes sure of his whereabouts. Have him find these lines wherever they are and attach them to radiators and water taps, as the energy will drain out of him. The III ordinarily has enough lines to cause him to snap back in the head when he releases beams. Failing this, go to Step IV. STEP IV - RIDGE RUNNING: Ask the preclear to give himself a command to walk. Let him locate the white flow line which results inside his head. When this goes dark, have him locate the tiny inside- the-skull ridge that stopped it. Have him run the flow from this barrier (these barriers - they are tiny ridges - each have a thought with them such as "can't walk" or "too bored to walk") back toward the spot where he told himself to walk. It will run white for a moment, then go black. Have him give himself the command to walk again and "watch" this flow line. It may run through two or three tiny barriers and then stop. Again, have him run the "objection" to walking. Have him watch this "objection" flow until it goes black. Then have him give himself the command to walk again, and so on and so on. He will wind up at some outside point. Now have him give himself the command "listen" and have him run this and its black flows on "black and white" until he is exterior on the subject of "listen." Then use the command "talk" similarly. Then the command "nod," then the command "move," etc. Give "look" last, for it may "blind" his perception of black and white. He may each time get out to a distance in another quarter. If he can do all this, start with Step I again. Failing this step, failing to "see" black-and-white-energy manifestations, go to Step V. STEP V - CREATIVE PROCESSING: Audit the preclear very heavily on Creative Processing (Self Analysis, British Edition). Then go through the steps again. If pc is immediately perceived to have little or no reality on any incident, go to Step VI. STEP VI - ARC STRAIGHTWIRE: Drill, by direct questioning, on locks until the pc can remember something really "real" to him, something which he "really loved," something with which he was in communication. Then drill him on creating illusions until he is certain he has created one which really isn't real, which he is certain he put the emotion and perceptions into. (See Self Analysis, British Edition, with attention to End-of-Session Processing.) Then go through steps again. Failing Step VI, after a quick test, go to Step VII. STEP VII - PRESENT TIME BODY ORIENTATION: Have preclear locate a part of his body and recognize it as such. Have him locate furniture, fixtures, auditor in room. Have him locate the town and country he is in. Get him to find something in present time which is really real to him, with which he can communicate. Work on this until he can do this. Then go to Step VI. Then go to Step I.
