- this is the state of case scale. All levels given are major levels. Minor levels exist between them.
- Level (1), no track—no charge. Level (1) is of course an O.T. (HCOB 8 Jun 63)
- Level (2), full visible time track—some charge. Level (2) is the clearest clear anybody ever heard of. (HCOB 8 Jun 63)
- Level (3), sporadic visibility of track—some heavily charged areas. Level (3) can run engrams. (HCOB 8 Jun 63)
- Level (4), invisible track (black or invisible field), very heavily charged areas exist. Level (4) can run early track engrams if the running is skilled. Level (4) includes the Black V case. (HCOB 8 Jun 63)
- Level (5), dub-in—some areas of track so heavily charged pc is below consciousness in them. Level (5) has to be run on general ARC processes. (HCOB 8 Jun 63)
He has an uncertainty about everything. He has to figure about everything; he has to know before he goes, and he has to hide but he knows he can't hide, and he depends on logic to serve for all of his predictions because he can't look. (PAB 2)
This guy can't confront it to the degree that if he tries to confront it he makes a picture of it. He's got a picture of a picture. (SH Spec 2751 6306C18)
- Level (6), dub-in of dub-in. Many areas of track so heavily charged, the dub-in is submerged. Level (6) has to be run carefully on special ARC processes with lots of havingness. (HCOB 8 Jun 63)
A (6) is neurotic. He's unable to easily recall the things in the next to the last list of Self Analysis; something really real, a time he was really in communication, and so forth. (5304M07)
There's nothing that distinguishes the (6) from the dub-in case except the degree of franticness which the case goes into, and the amount of delusion which can turn on. What characterizes this case is the terrible automaticity of the bank. (SH Spec 274, 6306C13)
- Level (7), only aware of own evaluations —track too heavily charged to be viewed at all. Level (7) responds to the CCHs. (HCOB 8 Jun 63)
- Level (8), unaware—pc dull, often in a coma. Level (8) responds only to reach and withdraw CCHs. (HCOB 8 Jun 63)
In actuality on some portion of every time track in every case you will find each of the levels except (1) momentarily expressed. The above scale is devoted to chronic case level and is useful in programming a case. Now, what makes these levels of case? It is entirely charge. The more heavily charged the case, the lower it falls on the above scale. It is charge that prevents the pc from confronting the time track and submerges the time track from view. (HCOB 8 Jun 63)
