Auditing Training Where to Get It Glossary Références 4 Scientology—The Hidden Philosophy Introduction My introduction to Scientology began in 1969 in Brighton, Sussex, England, with a person called Donat. He introduced me to the book, Fundamentals of Thought. I read the principles contained within the book, such as the cycle of action, communication, valances, and the eight dynamics for example (all explained in more detail later in the book), and thought they were sensible and logical, Then he got me to read a closely typed paper with red lettering entitled “TRs Modernized” with a lot of words I did not understand. (TRs is an acronym for Training Regime Modernized – a set of drills or exercises performed to increase one’s ability on confronting and communication) Then he sat me down in a chair, sat opposite me and said “Start Nothing happened for an hour. He just looked at me. Just stared at me, did not say a thing. Was he trying to hypnotize me? Was he looking for something? Had I said something to stun him? Was he waiting for me to say something? What? At the time, I thought this was quite bizarre. At the end he said “That’s it,” and that was the end of that, with me being none the wiser although I did feel slightly more alert. After a few days he invited me to what he called an “event” at a public hall, where a taped lecture by L. Ron Hubbard (LRH) was playing. It was called “Ron’s Journal 67” and was about the OT III breakthrough. For some reason this resonated with me and I became curious, and after a few weeks pondering and reading more books, I could see the sense of this new philosophy and decided to go to the Headquarters at Saint Hill in East Grinstead, Sussex, UK, to have some auditing. I started on the auditing but did not complete it. Instead I was told to do the Communications Course. I did not do that course (due to not having any money available at that time) but just wondered in and out talking to Scientologists and reading books. Eventually I discovered that Scientology was the answer to all the mysteries I had encountered in life. After a few months, I decided that I wanted to join staff. I was in London at the time so I went to the London branch in Tottenham Court Road and joined staff to become an Auditor. I went immediately onto the HSDC (Hubbard Standard Dianetics Couse) and began learning more about the mind and how it ticks. During the course, other students who had completed the course audited me on Dianetics. I gained a subjective under- standing of how the mind works, and I experienced relief of many aches and pains that had dogged me all my life. It made me aware of things about myself I never knew; I gained a deeper understanding of life, the uni- verse and everything in it. Towards the end of the course, I was pulled into the senior executive’s office and told that someone was need- ed down in Brighton to run the branch (called Org, short for organisation) there. I was happy to help, so I was sent back down to Brighton to be the Executive Director of the newly formed Brighton organisation. There were just two other staff members, and the three of us made up the staff complement. Brighton Org was only a few miles from Saint Hill, so, although we were classified as a high-level org, we had little or no practical ex- perience and no way of delivering the services we were classified for, so we often had to enlist the help of a professional Scientology Auditor from Saint Hill (50 miles away) to audit the public to whom we sold ser- vices. We sold a lot of very basic courses, which we delivered ourselves, but we noticed that after the course every- one seemed to just disappear. No one stayed. This was a big mystery, until we discovered by chance that they were ending up at Saint Hill, doing major services. Diana Hubbard (Ron Hubbard’s Daughter) did an evalua- 5 Scientology—The Hidden Philosophy tion on our organisation and discovered we really should have been set up as a City Office rather than a full blown organisation. So our status changed; we went on to become a highly successful City Office, delivering basic courses, then sending people to Saint Hill for more advanced courses and auditing. Eventually I was called up to Saint Hill in East Grinstead, and after some training, worked there. I supervised the Hubbard Col- lege of Improvement (HCI), where all new Sea Organisation personnel were trained (The Sea Organisation, or Sea Org for short, is the senior organisation set up to administrate and run the churches of Scientology). This was followed by other similar positions. All the while I was receiving administration training. About this time, the new Auditor training on “TRs Modernized” (Training Routines) was released. I was re- placed as the supervisor and went on full-time training myself. Now, instead of an hour a day, I spent two weeks, full time, sitting and staring (or more correctly, just looking) at another person. This was a memorable occasion and a life-changing experience. My ability to confront (be there comfortably with another) moved up from my ankles to somewhere around my head. I became extremely comfortable just looking at another per- son with no supportive actions such as tossing my head, face twitches or the like. For those who have done this exercise, they will know exactly what I mean when I say I was able to just be there comfortably with no vias. This means that regardless of whomever or whatever you are looking at you do not flinch or compensate in anyway as a crutch or support for looking. (Many people might confront with something, such as holding their head to one side, twitching, blinking excessively and other mannerisms.) Unless you have experienced this, it is difficult to explain. The training drills are primarily to train Auditors to face whatever the person be- ing audited (Preclear) may come up with whilst in session without reacting to it, but continue to perform the Auditor duties to get the Preclear (person receiving auditing) through the session and to a good win.

  • No Science in $Cientology About Says It All
    ¡ ¢¤£ ¥ ¡ £ ¦¨§ © Scientology books are sold as scientific. For example: What the cult calls Book One, titled Dianetics The Modern Science of Mental Health. There's also A History of Man, billed by L. Ron Hubbard (the Founder of Scientology) as "a cold-blooded and factual account of your last sixty trillion years". However, there is no scientific validation of the contents in these books. Yes, No Science in $cientology about says it all. Despite the fact that Dianetics and Scientology together are nearly 50 years old, there has never been any scientific verification of the principles that the Scientology cult teaches. In fact, the only two experiments in existence to address Scientology principles have shown that these principles do not hold up under experimental evaluation. Of course, this may not be surprising - the first time Hubbard wrote about Dianetics, it was published in Astounding Science Fiction Magazine (the May 1950 issue), not a scientific journal. You can see the cover of the Astounding magazine in question here: http://www.primenet.com/~cultxpt/cos.htm The first experiment was Dianetic Therapy: An Experimental Evaluation by Harvey Jay Fischer. This study was submitted in 1953 to Fischer's sponsoring committee as part of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy in Education he was pursuing. From the abstract of Dianetic Therapy: An Experimental Evaluation by Harvey Jay Fischer: "Dianetic proponents specifically claim effectiveness in only three areas: intellectual functioning, mathematical ability, and personality

  • Scientology: CRIMINAL TIME TRACK ISSUE I by Mike Mcclaughry 1999
    Scientology: CRIMINAL TIME TRACK ISSUE I by Mike McClaughry 1999 The following is a Time Track that I put together for myself and some friends at the time, in 1999. I originally used the pseudonym “Theta” at the request of Greg Barnes until he was ready to “go public” with his defection from Scientology. I also used the pseudonym “Theta 8-8008” around this same time period. Bernd Luebeck, Ex-Guardian’s Office Intelligence and then Ron’s Org staff ran the website www.freezone.org. In 1999, just after my time track was released privately, Bernd used it on his website as-is. He later expanded on my original time track with items of interest to himself. Prior to my doing this time track, Bernd, (nor anyone else involved with Scientology on the internet), had ever thought of the idea to do things this way in relation to Scientology. Mike McClaughry BEGIN An open letter to all Scientologists: Greetings and by way of introduction, I am a Class 8, OT 8, who has been in the Church for many decades and I am in good standing with the Church. I am a lover of LRH’s technology and that is my motivation in writing you and in doing what I am now doing. It came to my attention, sometime in the not too distant past, that the current top management of the Church, particularly David Miscavige, is off source. One of the ways he is off-source is that he has made the same mistake as the old Guardian’s Office staff made, engaging in criminal activities to solve problems.

  • Freedom of Religion and the Church of Scientology in Germany and the United States
    SHOULD GERMANY STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE OCTOPUS? FREEDOM OF RELIGION AND THE CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY IN GERMANY AND THE UNITED STATES Religion hides many mischiefs from suspicion.' I. INTRODUCTION Recently the City of Los Angeles dedicated one of its streets to the founder of the Church of Scientology, renaming it "L. Ron Hubbard Way." 2 Several months prior to the ceremony, the Superior Administrative Court of Miinster, Germany held that Federal Minister of Labor Norbert Bluim was legally permitted to continue to refer to Scientology as a "giant octopus" and a "contemptuous cartel of oppression." 3 These incidents indicate the disparity between the way that the Church of Scientology is treated in the United States and the treatment it receives in Germany.4 Notably, while Scientology has been recognized as a religion in the United States, 5 in Germany it has struggled for acceptance and, by its own account, equality under the law. 6 The issue of Germany's treatment of the Church of Scientology has reached the upper echelons of the United States 1.

  • Scientology - a Masked Branch of Masonic Judaism
    Scientology - A Masked Branch of Masonic Judaism Most Scientologists believe that Scientology is a route to full recovery of native abilities such as exteriorization with full perception, telepathy, ability to create MEST, Cause, etc. Most of them, being very bright, had already correctly rejected the various Bibles as not being the truth and not presenting any valuable wisdom, with endless pages of who begat who. Scientology, on the other hand, did present some factual and useful information such as the truth that you are a Being and what some of your capabilities are. The other religions said the highest level of spiritual attainment was for you to realize you are an inferior Being who was nothing more than a creation of God, and your role in existence was to worship and serve God, your creator. In other words, you are a Creation, not a Creator. Thus, at long-last, a religion finally appeared to offer some hope for what Beings sought. The spiritual drought and stagnation offered by the other religions appeared to be over. Scientology was different! Or so it seemed… No one in Scientology has attained these higher states described in Scientology materials, and no one in Scientology ever will. The reason for that will become abundantly clear herein. Those who reach the end of the Scientology bridge are in for a rude awakening. They were subjected to a bait and switch. Bait and switch is a marketing technique used by unscrupulous salesmen. They advertise a decent car at a low price, but when the customer comes in they tell him that car was sold.

From 1973 to 1975 I lived aboard the Flagship Apollo ("Flag"), the home of L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of Dianetics and Scientology. On Flag, I trained to be an auditor (a Scientology counselor). My life on Flag was a continual roller- coaster of ups and downs. One day I would receive a personal commendation from Hubbard and be held up as an example of what a Flag auditor should be and then, just months later, Hubbard would take away all my certificates and send me to the RPF (Scientology's prison camp) for an auditing error I did not even commit. On Flag as auditors, we were under continuous pressure to be perfect, the standard of perfection being the whim of L. Ron Hubbard. Many people, no doubt, have read horror stories about what occurred on Flag and I can personally attest to the fact that they are true.

Unes to take The applicants, having seen our witness statement and outline argument, have offered to withdraw their case, with no order as to costs. This means that the non-recognition policy being followed by prison service is reasonable .and secure. It has been our long-standing policy to withhold recognition of scientology as a religion. However, in order to meet the needs of individual prisoners, the Prison Service allows any prisoner registered as a Scientologist to have access to a representative of the Church of Scientology if he wishes to receive its ministry. This is the approach which was followed in the case of Mr Heaton. The Home Office considers that its policy respects the rights of Mr Heaton under the ECHR and is reasonable in view of concerns of which the department is aware about some of the practices of the Church.
