Between Live Implants
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.
 
Thank you very much.
