The clearsound set includes an Appendix containing two HCOBs.  This
has been included with the first lecture above.

Note that old 15B "Q & A PERIOD" of 2 Aug 58 was marked as missing in
the Flag Master List and was later found by Gold.  Its absense here
probably means that they found it to be the same as old 16A (20ACC-28
in the above list).

Old number 19B "Q & A Period" of 8 Aug in the Flag Master List
is also omitted but 20ACC-32 (old 19A) is extremely long and probably
contains both old 19A and 19B.

Note 20ACC-2 (1A) does not appear on the Flag Master List but
appears to be genuine.

We were able to check ten of these against the old reels and
found minor omissions [marked ">" in the transcripts.]

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

Our purpose is to promote religious freedom and the Scientology
Religion by spreading the Scientology Tech across the internet.

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

ACC PROCEDURE OUTLINED E-METER TRS

A lecture given on 15 July 1958

[Based on the clearsound version only.]

Thank you.

How are you doing today?

Audience: Fine. Good.

All right. Is there anybody here that wasn't doing at all?

This is the second lecture, 20th ACC, July 15, 1958. We are
going to cover in this lecture the auditing procedure - the
auditing procedure of this ACC.

Before we cover an auditing procedure, however, I should
call to your attention that there are certain prerequisites
to being able to audit. The first and foremost of these is
the Auditor's Code. Bang! Auditor's Code is a very
important document. It's becoming more so and more so and
more so. It is one which is aging in wood. It definitely
is. So it's time for you to take it out and look at it
again because it answers an enormous number of questions.

"How long should I run a process?" It's answered in the
Auditor's Code. "What should I do with the pc," and so
forth. Actually, there's one more clause on the Auditor's
Code than appears in the earlier versions. There are
actually sixteen clauses in the Auditor's Code, and the
last one is: Stay in two-way comm with the pc.

Now the Code of a Scientologist is apparently not as
germane to auditing as you might believe. However, it is
your best protection as an auditor, and your reputation has
a great deal to do with the Code of a Scientologist.
Therefore, it is very much to your interest to keep this
code alive.

The next thing that we run into is a series of training
drills, the TRs. Now there are a great many TRs. There are
more TRs than you take up in Comm Course and Upper Indoc. A
full list of these TRs is available.

The entirety of know-how on the backtrack of Dianetics and
Scientology should be pretty well at your fingertips: such
things as the composition of the reactive mind, what you
can do with the reactive mind, the behavior of mental image
pictures in general, engrams, secondaries, and so forth.

If you don't know the definition of an engram, you sooner
or later are going to run into one and have to have it
escorted from the classroom so that you can get on with the
lecture about engrams.

These things are pretty-pretty wicked in the reactive bank
of an aberree. They're pretty wicked. And they're what you
hit as an auditor with these later, very heavy processes,
and you hit engrams with a crash. You plow right into them
with such things as Help, and if you don't know what's
coming off this case, you might think he has medical
association sciatica or something, you know? And he might
have all sorts of horrible physical ills.

I'll never forget a medical doctor becoming hysterical
while I was running an engram. He became quite hysterical.
He became quite a medical doctor. To watch one of these
boys operate on the Effect Scale is quite fascinating. The
surgeon particularly. He's in there with total effect,
total effect, total effect. Got to get in there with a
knife, got to get in there with a knife, gotta make a total
effect, you know, arra ugh! And you never saw the like of this.

I've seen these guys absolutely froth at the idea that
somebody was not going to have his stomach cut out. I have
seen them in a hospital just - just become very upset because
some diagnostician said that he didn't have stomach cancer
after all. I saw a surgeon throw down a stethoscope and his
gloves on a desk and spatter papers all over the place, and
he says, "What'll you think of next?" Now, you have to have
surgeons in order to keep the insane happy and they're a
necessary part of the community of course, naturally. But
in auditing if you don't have a command of the scales,
various behaviors will become extremely incomprehensible to
you. You know, why is he doing that? You know? Well, there
are only three vital scales and these scales are: the old
ARC Tone Scale, the Chart of Human Evaluation. That thing
is as valid today as it ever was.

However, it has an extended bottom. It goes down into the
Minus Tone Scale as given in Scientology 8-80. The scale
that is most used by you is that scale. For instance,
you'll watch people coming up through this emotional band.

Now, this emotional band has suddenly become more important
than it has for the last few years, because when you hit
the Rock on a case, when you manage to get in there and
actually surround the point on the case that the person has
identified with all other points everywhere, you will hit
the case's greatest reality.

These cases that are very unreal (we'll talk about this
some more later) these cases that are very unreal - what
wall, you know - actually do have a point of reality. And
that point of reality is the Rock, this point on the case
that they're obsessively mocking up, and that thing is real
to them.

It is more real than anything else, and you want to hit the
reality on a case, you do a proper delineation of what this
item is that the pc has associated with all other items
everywhere and which we call slangily "the Rock" because at
the congress I hear people calling it the Rock, and so I'm
following suit.

And when you hit that one, he goes up the emotional scale.
He will go right on up to apathy, and he'll hit grief,
fear, anger, antagonism, boredom, conservatism, enthusiasm.

But a new manifestation comes in that has been observed
before, but has never been particularly stressed, and that
manifestation is that the Rock goes down scale through all
of these points before the pc starts up scale. In other
words, the Rock is in serenity and goes down to enthusiasm,
goes down to conservatism. Got the idea? Well, the real
Rock first runs this ARC Tone Scale in reverse and then
runs it right side up for the pc. He is emotionless during
the period when the Rock or the central pivot of the case
is being emotional. See, it is alive; he is not.

Now, if you don't know about engrams and secondaries, you
wonder how the devil this Rock got into his hoof in the
first place. A valence - a valence is no more and no less
than an interiorization into an engram. It's a total
interiorization into an engram where the pc has done the
unheard of thing of flipping from the identity which he had
actually in the engram into another identity in the engram.
And this engram is totally solid, and then he now has the
track and bank of the item he has gone into in the engram.

It's as simple a mechanism as this: You have a mental image
picture containing pain and unconsciousness, and you have
this fellow - there he is and here is the medieval torturer
or something of this sort. (There is very seldom anything
goes on in this lifetime the way the world is today that
would really aberrate anybody.) But anyway, here is this
medieval torturer and the medieval torturer wins. He's able
to make this fellow be unwilling to communicate with
anything, anywhere. And when this item we call "the man"
becomes unwilling to communicate with anything, anywhere,
in any means or manner, he becomes the nearest thing which
he thinks it's safe to use for a communication system.
Well, it might be the torturer, it might be the boiler, it
might be the whip. You see, it could be most anything that
is in his vicinity.

But he's got a mental image picture of it, and the funny
part of it is he actually does a flip into this mental
image picture. And then he does a beautiful computation
about what its track and bank should be like. There's some
people who have totally black fields which are simply
derived from the fact that a whip would naturally have a
totally black field as everybody knows.

Now, more understandably, he goes into the valence of a
furnace. Well, of course, a furnace always has a totally
black field. Get in one sometime and you'll see. Or you
won't see as the case may be.

Now, the ARC Tone Scale is an index of life and livingness,
and it is, you might say, a measure of how much alive a
person is. When he is just so much alive he manifests some
position on this scale. Well, when he is being something
else, then it of course is alive and it manifests some
livingness. You see that? And the index of that livingness
is this old ARC Tone Scale.

All right. Let's go on to another one and that is the old
Know to Mystery Scale. And if you don't know very much
about the Know to Mystery Scale, why, you'd better review
it because you'll understand why your preclear
figure-figures when he cannot confront effort.

Now, beingness and valences and other such like - is just
the shift of livingness that he does - very often lead us
into some fascinating computations on the Know to Mystery
Scale. And the individual - the individual involved is
usually parked somewhere on the Know to Mystery Scale as
well as the ARC Tone Scale. In other words, livingness is
also expressed in the chief class of significance which he
assigns to the universe around him. And that is described
by the Know to Mystery Scale. In other words, all things
are symbols, you see? Now, you'd better know this scale
because it gives you classes of viewpoints - classes of
viewpoints. Now, a fellow can be a symbol. He can be
nothing but a symbol, which is quite wonderful. You know,
he's not a body, he's not anything but a symbol. And in
view of the fact that a symbol, definition of, has mass,
meaning and mobility - and that defines a symbol - we see
that he always becomes to some degree a symbol when he
becomes any thing.

Well, therefore, his attitude toward thinkingness becomes
explained by the relationship or the position of symbol to
think. So this person is telling you that he is a symbol.
You're processing somebody. He says he's a priest. All
right, very good, he's a priest. Or the Rock is a priest or
something like this. He's a priest. Very good. All right.

You say, "Think something." You know, you start running
some kind of a think process or you sit there waiting for
this man to think. Well, a man has to be able to think in
order to cognite, a little bit. And he's a priest, you see?
And he's a symbol. To you maybe a priest is somebody who
walks around and does things. A priest is somebody who
wears a uniform of some sort, a cassock, or something of
the sort. He has a body. You've got your idea of what a
priest is. Ha! That's not his idea of what a priest is. He
is a priest, p-r-i-e-s-t. He doesn't do anything, wear
anything, be anything. He is this symbol. See? And now he
never gets a cognition. You process him hour after hour
after hour and he never cognites on anything. Well, if you
don't know how a person can grade down on this Know to
Mystery Scale, and if you don't use this scale as an
evaluative scale, you're liable to get in a little bit of
trouble with some of these people that you process.

Now, of course, he could have been a priest and then gone
down scale on the Know to Mystery Scale and gotten totally
into mystery, so he is now a mystery. And you, you poor
auditor, are looking for some explanation or rationale of
the case, and there's no explanation or rationale of the
case except one: He's a mystery.

Well, mystery by definition has no explanation or rationale
that is known, to you, you see? And he will just go on
being a mystery. Well, now where is he going to graduate to
when you get him out of being a mystery? Well, he starts
studying Freud, won't he? The behavior of people - the
behavior of people should not be a closed book to you, and
once you have become used to observing them on these bases
.. These scales, by the way, aren't something I just
dreamed up. They were discovered more or less empirically,
by observation and so on. Basically, originally, by the
way, they were extrapolated as just - this is about the way
they would fit. But there have been several hundred scales
which were, you know, figured out and extrapolated, and
they were all nice, and they were all neat, and they were
theoretically perfect, only they didn't apply to the real
universe, you know? Ah-hah.

Of course, that would be the thing dearest to the heart of
a psychologist. Totally no application anywhere, so that
would be just the thing to have.

The last of these three scales is the Effect Scale and this
is peculiarly an ACC scale. The only place it is really
taught very much or talked about very much or used very
much is in an ACC and used by its students. The reason for
this is, the scale is one of these simple esoterics. It
should be, could be so much, you know? And most people look
at it casually, and they say, "Well, that's that." They
throw that aside and don't pay much more attention to it
because it's not really complicated.

Or somebody else gets ahold of one, this Effect Scale, and
he says, "Well, we can make it very, very, very, very
complicated and then they no longer have an Effect Scale.

Now, this one - this one is your preclear's behavior under
auditing. And it's a very simple scale; I'll mention it in
passing here, just describe it. If you had an enormous V,
wide at the top and pointed at the bottom, this huge V, you
would get a graph of satisfactory effect. And up here at
the top, above the V, you get a person who didn't have to
make an effect on anybody. It's the old Axiom 10 thing. He
doesn't have to make an effect on anybody and he doesn't
have to have an effect, you see? He's totally free about
it, but by choice he could make an effect or receive an
effect. That's way up scale.

Now, we get into it where a person operates to make effects
and then we go down scale to a level where he makes effects
so as not to receive effects. And then there are several
flip inversions as you go down the scale whereby he doesn't
make an effect on anything because he wants an effect. See,
he's now on receiving an effect. And the point we're
interested in is the gradient scale of effect on self in
relationship to the effect necessary, for his peace of
mind, on others.

So the gradient goes down to no effect on self, total
effect on others, and that's the bottom of the scale. And
he will have adopted some valence or some beingness which
meets this desirable effect standard. And that beingness is
somewhere on this Effect Scale.

And an individual who is being a piece of MEST realizes
that a piece of MEST can have no effect on it, but it can
have a total effect on others. A particle of lead, for
instance, is very, very nice that way. You can take it out
of dead bodies and melt it down and put it into another
bullet, and so on, and none of the molecules are damaged or
deranged, according to the physicists, and it's all set but
it sure does have total effects on other people. You get
the idea. It's total effect on somebody else, no effect on
self.

Now, when you get this extreme case as a pc, he's lying
there totally anaten; he's the insane asylum case. But
you'll see versions of this case wherever you look.

Now, you start processing somebody and he specializes in
telling you how it isn't having any effect on him. He puts
it numerous ways. At various parts of this Effect Scale, he
will put it in different ways. One of the ways he will say
is, "Well, I'm getting along fine. I'm improving all
right." You know, that's a fairly high reaction. That means
no effect on me.

A little bit higher he might tell you, "Well, I can cope
with these effects okay." See, he's beginning - a little
bit higher he admits that an effect occasionally occurs. A
little higher on the scale, he cognites. "Oh, that's what
that is," you know? This is what that is. It's quite a bit
higher on the scale. See? But below that level he just sits
there, you know? Being whatever he's being, you know, he
just sits there. And the only thing he's telling you is no
effect on him. There's no cognitions, there's no somatics,
there's no reaction, there's nothing.

But boy, you give him a little chance, and man, can he try
for a total effect on you, you see? He knows privately the
kind of an effect that would be satisfactory and expected
in this situation. And you'll find these people are in
"Wait." They're below mystery; they're just sitting there
in "Wait." Now, the Know to Mystery Scale, and this Effect
Scale and actually the ARC Tone Scale can all be drawn on
the same music bars. And they match up right across the
line. Nobody has done this task. I'm lazy. I could give you
a fancy explanation about being too busy and so forth, but
that's not the explanation for this one. I am in a
complacency. I know these so well and use them so
frequently that they just seem to me to be. You know? And
life in its various agreements seems to have come down to
this type of a scale.

Now, you must realize that these scales are built out of a
whole set of special agreements and that thetans, one after
the other, have evidently agreed to these scales, and we
are not describing something which I invented, you see? We
are describing something which was discovered and observed
and happens. And possibly - possibly someday we'll have a
process which would just directly pull up these scales and
tear them up as the expected behavior. By that time these
scales become no good and we will really be cooking.

But until a person gets Clear, particularly, and gets well
up the line, these scales are terribly in force. He
believes this is the way he ought to operate, I guess. It,
by the way, isn't necessarily the way a thetan operates.
It's the way a thetan has agreed to operate and that
describes these scales.

Now, don't let me catch you in the ACC being sweetness and
light about this pc, totally, totally complacent. You're
auditing this pc, and this pc is sitting there in some
position of the Effect Scale that is not changing at all -
don't let me catch you being complacent about that pc, you
understand? Because when they get better, they go up scale.
And when they get worse, they go down scale. And sometimes
they are below scale, and they get better by getting
apparently much worse.

We have an HGC preclear right now that every time anybody
takes a couple of 90-ton building jacks and puts them under
him and puts him up the Effect Scale a little bit, boy,
does he try for a total effect on everybody. He goes
running around telling everybody how it's all bad, it's all
bad, it's all bad. And the funny part of it is the people
he's telling this to are all in communication with one
another, but he is telling each one of them that the other
two have as their sole ambition killing him. I consider
this quite - quite interesting because each time they have
an effect on him, he knows this is all wrong. He's evidently
just there to prove that nobody can have an effect on him,
and the processes that are being used on him are chewing
him up and tearing him up and throwing him away in his
dearest areas.

Now, where you hit the Rock you change scale position, and
it can happen suddenly. Why? Because you take him off the
ARC Scale, you take him off the Know to Mystery Scale, you
take him off the Effect Scale - of a valise. He's been a
valise now for the last fifteen, twenty generations, and
you take him off the point of the scale where he is being
a valise, you see. And you shift him over, perhaps not to
himself, but at least to a more desirable identity, and of
course, you'll get a sudden shift on this scale.

So it doesn't always happen gradually, and these scales are
not always approached on a gradient, except the ARC Scale.
While this transfer of beingness takes place, he goes down
scale on the ARC Chart of Human Evaluations, and goes up
scale as his next personality. That's not himself probably
unless you are very, very good and you hit the Rock right
on the top with a sledgehammer the first time. You can do
that. Don't think that you can't.

And then the shift will be quite violent. And he wouldn't
just come up little by little by little. During the exact
period of auditing, you will see these scales readjusting.
He will follow the pattern of the scales and all that sort
of thing. When I say it's rapid, I mean at the beginning of
the session he was at this position on the Tone Scales. At
the end of the session, he's at some other selected series
of positions. You get the idea? Now, you audit him again
and you move him further over into a beingness closer to
himself, and he will again shift position.

Unless you're shifting a person's position on these scales,
you're not getting anywhere with auditing. So one of the
little tiny goals, the little tiny goals that you have -
this is a small goal in clearing - is to shift his position
on these three scales. So, you better know what these scales
are so as to know what to shift him on.

Now, these prerequisites which I have just mentioned are of
course accompanied by a fairly broad understanding of the
subject at large. You should know something about time
tracks, and you should still know something about other
observable phenomena which we have made into noumena. There
is very, very little phenomena left in Scientology. I hate
to say that, but we have come to a point where so much
phenomena has become noumena that now the preclear himself
is a phenomenon.

And that is, we don't quite know what the Rock is.
Otherwise we know how he's going to behave. We don't know
where he is sitting and we don't know quite the combination
that's going to unlock this case and let him out.

Now, this makes Scientology a slightly different subject
than you have studied before because it isn't just a
subject of study of a number of very set procedures. It's
a number of evaluative data and scales by which you can
understand the behavior situation, position and escape
route of your preclear and whether or not you're making it.
But the preclear himself must be observed today. Years ago
you might have gotten away with just auditing an engram,
but now you've got to look at the preclear. You got that? I
don't say that with any sarcasm. It is actually true that I
have actively attempted for years to avoid, because I have
failed each time, that I've tried, to avoid the task of
slamming into an auditor's hands the problems of diagnosis,
judgment, understanding a case, so forth. I have actively
avoided this. I have tried to bypass it every way I could
because every time I've tried to broadly teach this, the
factor of judgment was very, very poor and it was not
teachable. So therefore I was trying for processes which
would not make it necessary to actually judge this case.
Now Christian philosophy says thou shalt not judge, so get
over that and get on with the game.

When we discover that there's 10 to the 29th power data as
an absolute minimal figure - 10 to the 29th power number of
things a pc might be being, and that the route into them is
devious indeed, and that there's at least 10 to the 10th
power (these are just gag figures to give you some idea of
magnitude), 10 to the 10th power of locks, any one of which
looks like the item you're going for, you begin to get some
idea of the complication of the thing but that he will only
get reality on that chain and total reality on the item
itself, and that he is obsessively mocking up this chain
and the item itself and obsessively repressing it at the
same time, we see where all of his attention units are
locked up, what his reality is, why all other things are
unreal to him. We understand this case from beginning to
end the moment we start hitting that thing.

Had an HGC auditor tell me last night, "I kept wondering
why I was thinking about a prisoner in a boat, and when I
got all through with the session, I realized what this
throwing up the head and putting the E-Meter cans back of
the ears and all of this sort of thing was. The guy was
being a horse!" A Rock sticks out like mad if you know how
to look. It sticks out for you, but it doesn't stick out
for the pc.

Now listen. If you try to audit out of the pc your own
Rock, it'll never work. So I'm afraid you'll just have to
look at the pc. Now, based on what I have just told you -
these prerequisites - we get to our better rundown here
of an ACC procedure. We've had several ACC procedures. And
each ACC, they're a little different, they're a little
better, they're a little more advanced, and this time we
have really taken off into the blue.

Now, this looks very much like the ACC procedure of the
19th. It looks quite like it, but it isn't, so don't be
fooled. Now, this is merely an ACC procedure. It's an ACC
procedure. It is not an outside auditor procedure. It is
not an HGC auditor procedure. It is not a procedure that
you would be expected to use on preclears from here on out,
necessarily. Just - just forget about the furthest
complications and ramifications of this procedure and look
at it as a procedure which is going to be used for this
unit. And therefore we don't put any strain on you about
thinking about how true it is, and how you've got to
memorize it all, and how you've got to do this and that.
And if it doesn't work for you in this ACC, of course, in
the ACC, you are perfectly welcome to tear it up and use
something else.

I am consulting with your reality. You got that? Your
reality is what I am attempting to enlist in this ACC, so
get it off your Rock and let's go with this procedure.

The first thing that we run into is a Clear checkout. Now,
that's part of ACC procedure. And we have a new TR which
was originated just for this ACC and which will continue
on, which will undoubtedly be used for a very long time to
come.

It is the TR - the training drill - by which an individual
uses E-Meters.

And I will rapidly go over this drill. Some of you got it
yesterday; some of you got some personal coaching on it
yesterday. And it is simply this: One, does the E-Meter
respond to any action of the pc? This is the first thing
you discover. So the cans are in his hands, the E-Meter is
in the auditor's lap.

Now, the first thing you want to discover to your own
satisfaction is this fact: Does the E-Meter register
anything about the pc? Now, I had auditors telling me
yesterday, "Well, yes. If I ask him so and so I'd get a lie
reaction." Oh, no, no, no, no. Let's come out of think and
let's get into actual fact.

Is there anything he's going to do? Yes. He could short the
cans. That's about the crudest. If he shorted the cans,
then some action of his is expressed on the E-Meter. You
got that? And I don't mean squeeze the cans. I'm talking
about a cruder reaction than that. He'd have to have some
strength in his hands or something. But if you were to push
his hands together so the cans would hit, you would get a
flip on the needle, right? So there is something that could
be done there by the pc that could influence that E-Meter,
right? Well, that one will always happen. Theoretically,
you could get somebody so stuck that you don't have enough
sensitivity on the meter to crank up to permit the needle
to move when he squeezed the cans. Remember that. So
further south on this "What reaction can the pc make on
this meter?" is: short the cans.

Now, the next one is: Squeeze the cans. Now, unless you
have a pc squeeze the cans to find out whether or not the
meter is operating, then you from there on do not know
whether the meter is connected to the pc and operating. I
say that in all seriousness. You don't have him squeeze the
cans to find out where to set the Sensitivity knob first.
That's not your first action or your first concern at all.
You have him squeeze the cans to find out whether or not
the meter works.

Now, remember, since the last session, somebody might have
come along and dropped the thing. Somebody might have put
it on a steam radiator and melted the solder out of it. The
battery might have gone bad and it just gave up the ghost.
And the auditor, for his own security, must establish that
when the pc squeezes the cans, the needle on the E-Meter
works. And if that doesn't happen, have him short the cans
and see what happens because he might be that low.

I suppose there'll be some cases around someday that
somebody will find that are just stuck because you notice
on some pcs you have to crank that sensitivity knob up
there pretty high to get a quarter of a drop on that
needle. So the stucker the pc is on the track, the more
sensitivity you have to have in order to get the needle to
swing. But you want to know if this meter is operating.
That's what you want to know right now, and the way you do
that, and the first action that you ask him to do is to
squeeze those cans. Now you know that his action of
squeezing the cans is what made the needle go phoof.

Huh, this sounds awfully elementary, but that's what things
are. That's life. Life is awfully elementary, and what is
wrong with life is that it seems awfully complicated. You
could sit there for hours trying to get the pc to register
on an E-Meter that was busted. Don't think you couldn't. Do
it all the time with Mathisons.

You know, I've seen auditors operating with a big,
complicated Mathison that was registering house current. It
wasn't registering the pc. Needle flying around, looked so
active that everything was going along. Wondering why he
couldn't get a reaction off this thing. Well, it was busted
in some fashion. Any tube meter and any meter which is
attached to house current are more liable to error than a
good transistor meter which is battery contained because
you are now independent of the surges of electricity.
Somebody turns a light on and off someplace in the house
and you get a flip on an E-Meter, see? An elevator goes up
or down in the next apartment building to you and you get a
flip on your E-Meter. So you're too connected in to the
house mains.

The earlier meters that were battery operated were simply
battery operated because they were cheap. But there is a
good reason why. These batteries in these new meters last
for a very long time, by the way. I don't think we've worn
one out yet, have we? We've had them in operation; they've
been sitting around left on overnight and all that sort of
thing, and we have yet to wear one out. They don't - so I
don't know how long - we have no estimate yet. It may be a
battery will last a year or two.

Now, that's the first thing you've got to find out, and
just asking him to do it once is no proof. It might have
been at that moment that you sneezed too or something, you
know? Now, you told the preclear to squeeze the cans. And
he squeezed the cans and then the needle dropped. All
right, we'll take that first one as coincidence. Let's do
it again, therefore. We haven't even gotten to the "set
sensitivity" yet. We just cranked the thing up and told him
to squeeze the cans. We don't care how many dials it drops
just as long as it moves when we tell him.

We say to him again, "Squeeze the cans."

And to set one you'll probably have to adjust how he's
squeezing the cans because sometimes they grab them real
quick and let go of them real quick, and so forth, and the
meter doesn't even get a chance to operate or... You
don't get a set that way. You want a steady, hard squeeze
and then have him let go. That's to set the needle.

But all you want to do at first is just get him to squeeze
the cans. You say, "Squeeze those cans." He squeezes the
cans and the needle goes wham! Well, that could be double
coincidence, see? So you say to him again, "Squeeze the
cans." He squeezes the cans and the needle goes wham.

Now, note carefully that the needle did not go wham when he
wasn't squeezing the cans. So sit there for a short time
just looking at the meter to see whether or not it goes
wham when he's not squeezing the cans. You got that? Now,
by that procedure, you yourself arrive at a certainty that
this meter is registering the preclear, not something else.
Now, you know it's registering the preclear, right? And you
are ready to proceed with the E-Meter operation. Now, the
TR for this is really a Clear checkout. If you're doing a
Clear checkout, look at the position of the tone arm and
the position of the sensitivity knob. The Sensitivity knob
at 12 o'clock: your tone arm registers more or less 5,000
ohms resistance for a female and 12,500 ohms resistance for
a male. And if it isn't somewhere near there, you can skip
your Clear checkout right at that moment. If it's way down
on the dial or way up on the dial, that invalidates a Clear
check. You see this? Now, if you doubt your meter and if
you're really using your meter for Clear checkouts, you
should get a 5,000 ohms clip and a 12,500 ohms clip
resistor. Get two resistors, put them between the cans and
set your tone arm, and then hand the cans to the pc without
further setting the tone arm. That would be a testing Clear
checkout meter. That's what you would use it for.

You'd put this little resistor between the two cans instead
of the pc, you see. Then when you took it off, then you'd
set it to exact zero, see, so your needle is up there where
it should be and everything is fine. You take the resistor
off and hand these cans to the pc; they ought to be right
on. If he's Clear, they will be somewhere close to on.

Now, position of the arm then gives you an indicator of
where this pc is sitting.

Your drill now continues on this basis: There are five
actions to a needle - five actions to a needle. Four of them
are reactions, one is an action. And it's very interesting
to hear a professional Scientologist boggle at this fifth
action.

They always have a hard time. I've had several now to date,
and they can't think of this fifth action; they can think
of these four reactions all right. But this fifth action
evades them which is very funny. And the fifth action is
the first one we take up which is: free needle. The needle
is free. That's where you're supposed to be going with
Clear Procedure, is a free needle.

But in the drill we are interested in the four reactions,
and we're interested in them in this order - and purposely
this order: We're going to have the auditor ask questions
and say things to the preclear which then make the needle
behave in a certain way. And after an auditor finds out
that he can selectively ask questions of non-Clear
preclears that make the needle behave as he wants it to
behave as a result of the questions, he, one, gets a big
reality on the pc's bank and behavior and gets a big
reality on using this E-Meter in auditing.

The first one of these is a drop. It's any kind of drop.

The next one of these is a theta bop.

The next one of these is a stuck needle.

And the next one of these is a rising needle. Any kind of
rising needle - fast rise, slow rise, so forth. Any kind of
stuck needle - very stuck, not so stuck. Any kind of a theta
bop, wide or narrow. And any kind of a drop going back in
reverse on these things.

Now, how does he turn these manifestations on? The thing
drops every time you get an emotional disagreement. An
E-Meter registers disagreement. That's what it registers.
It doesn't register lies or anything of the sort. It
really, I don't... Basically, because thetans make by
consent and belief all this energy and so forth, maybe it
doesn't even register energy but it certainly registers
disagreement. And when he disagrees totally with life, he's
totally stuck because that's his agreement; that if he
disagrees, why, then he penalizes himself.

All right. Now, this first one is drop. So you tell the
preclear not to say no to each one of the following:
Improper statement. It's "I want you to lie to me about
each one of the following questions and say no." Not that.
Plant it in his skull that it's a lie as well as no, don't
you see? So then he'll listen to it and he'll say, "Well,
I'm supposed to lie to this. All right. I'll lie," you
know? And he knows now he's disagreeing. This is what you
tell him now.

And you will find as an auditor that you can, by this
mechanism, make the meter drop at will. But you have to
find out what his lie reaction is. Therefore, you have to
crank up the sensitivity until you get it. And the
sensitivity may be all the way up and around the dial
before you're getting a good lie drop. You may have to have
it totally cranked up to the top on a relatively stuck case
anyhow, but you will see the lie reaction.

Now, you've told him to lie to you and say no, so you ask
him a question like this: "Are you sitting in that chair?"
And he says "No," and the machine drops. The needle drops.
Eh-heh. But that might have been just a fluke. So you say
to him, "Are we in a room?" And he says, "No." And once
more the same drop occurs. Now you're getting a little more
to it. If it doesn't, you certainly better start looking,
see, because the machine is out of order or something is
wrong here or you haven't got the sensitivity knob cranked
up high enough or something of the sort.

Now, you say something on the order of - of course, you
wouldn't ask him if he was alive because he might say no,
and it might be the truth. By the way, the question "Are
you Clear?" is not a good lie question because a person
might honestly believe that he himself was Clear, and you
might not get a lie reaction on it at all. It's already
happened twice.

The person stuck all over the track and they said with
total belief that they were Clear. Get the idea? They just
said that as part of a lie reaction test. Yeah, but they
evidently believed it.

So you ask such questions that obviously require the answer
yes and the preclear is under agreement to say no. And
you'll get this reaction drop each time you ask the
question, and therefore you eventually get a reality on the
fact that it is your question that's making the needle
drop, and it's dropping just that much because you're
asking that question. You get the idea? All right. Now, we
get into how we make a needle do a theta bop. All right.
We've proven the thing is dropping; that we, the auditor,
can make it drop at will. So let's get into a theta bop
here. How do we do a theta bop? Well, we just talk about
death in each and every one of its forms. "Have you died
lately? Have you ever died? What do you think about dead
bodies? Do you have any dead friends? Have you lost any
pets through death? Have you ever had an operation that you
exteriorized in?" and so forth.

Well, what is this theta bop? Theta bop is the yo-yo of a
thetan going in and out. And it may be the yo-yo in a
picture or it may be actually happening in present time.

You could take a Clear and ask him to get back of his head
to some distance, and you'll get a theta bop on a machine
if he in any way, shape or form is holding on to his head
with an energy beam. In other words, the guy - that is not
really an invalidative test on Clear. But just talking
casually about death and getting a theta bop, that for sure is.

Of course, if a person gets a lie reaction on a machine,
he's not Clear, following the Clear checkout. A Clear can
lie without penalty. That's one of the reasons you should
be Clear. Anyway...

The theta bop is unmistakable. It's a little hunt to the
right, to the left, to the right, to the left. Sometimes
it's wide, sometimes it's narrow. On some pcs it's very
narrow; some pcs it's very wide. It depends on where you
have the Sensitivity knob to a large degree.

So on your talk of death, do you turn on a theta bop? Yes,
it turns on a theta bop. When I'd stop talking about death,
does a theta bop turn off? Well, if it doesn't, you better
chalk him up for seven weeks of auditing or something
because he's sticky on the track. But the second you stop
talking about death, it stops theta bopping, why, there's
some hope for him.

See, you can measure how long it'll take to clear a person
by the length of time the reaction you elicit persists. The
more persistent is the reaction on a needle, the longer
it's going to take to clear him. All Clear estimates are
based on this factor.

All right.

You turned on a theta bop at will, so you the auditor must
be having an effect on the meter with your questions. This
reality should be coming fairly clear and clean now. You
turned on the theta bop, see? You asked the question; you
turned it on.

And by the way, you can turn it on on any preclear; you can
do this on any preclear if he isn't dead. And if he's dead,
you get a Clear reaction. You get a free needle. That's
right. It's uninterfered with, with bank.

A female body evidently registers 5,000 ohms, a male body
12,500 on dead bodies as far as I can find at this time,
providing they aren't too dead. You have to catch them just
after the thetan leaves and before the GE collapses, so
there's a period there of a few seconds when you would get
a Clear reaction on a dead body.

All right. Death is not the same as clearing but there is,
remember, R2-45. It's a very valid technique. A lot of
people have used it before now.

All right. Now, let's get to this third reaction - the stuck
needle. How do you stick a needle? Well, you just start
looking for the Rock - I don't care how expertly or how
crudely - and you'll get it. But there's another method of
turning it on if you miss finding the Rock. That's really
what you should do is just go looking for the Rock, you
know? Make any notes while you're doing this on a preclear
that you care to concerning what made it stick. For
instance, we were asking a person about death yesterday,
and all of a sudden we got into stabbed bodies, and stabbed
bodies has something to do with the Rock: a knife or it's
something there - something - because we started to get a
sticky needle. It went from theta bop to sticky needle.

The reason why we do this in this order, by the way, is
because you can only turn these on in this order with any
degree of orderliness. You start turning them on in some
other order, and you get the needle totally stuck and then
try to theta bop it and so forth, and you - you can do it,
but it's a little bit more difficult. All right.

Now, let's talk about hate. Things he distrusts. Things he
betrayed. You know, you couldn't find much of the Rock and
you couldn't get a stuck needle. You just start talking
about things he distrusts, things he hates, things he'd
rather not communicate with, in other words. But don't use
that word "things he'd rather not communicate with" for the
excellent reason that it might, on a limited process,
simply free the needle. See? It might work for a few
commands. So, anytime you use that word "communicate,"
things happen, so you want to lay off of it if you're
trying to mess up a preclear. So talk about hate, distrust,
betrayal, you'll get a stuck needle - it'll get over there
- and the longer you talk about it, the stucker it will
get.

Now, you've got a stuck needle. What is a stuck needle?
Well, that's something you should look at an E-Meter and
find out: what is a stuck needle? There's no sense in
describing it. I can tell you how to get the manifestations
that then will appear this way. But you have to be
confident that you in asking questions as an auditor of the
preclear stuck the needle. You stuck the needle. It wasn't
that the battery went out of operation or something. You
get that? It's you that stuck the needle. All this time
we're developing big certainty on the auditor's part
regarding the performance of an E-Meter with the cans in
the hands of the preclear. Until he's got that certainty,
the thing is no good to him as an auditing tool.

And if you keep on sticking the needle, we get to the
fourth reaction which is rising needle. All a rising needle
is, is a needle that's stuck so good that the more
resistance you add to the top of it, the more it rises
because what is a rising needle but an increasing
resistance on the preclear. And how do you best increase
the resistance on the preclear? By just pulling the bank in
on him. Pulling more and more bank in, more and more bank,
more and more bank. Then you'll get a nice rising needle, I
guarantee.

Processes that give a rising needle, you know then are
really sticking the preclear harder and harder and harder
and harder. This is all right. He'll come free on the chain
sooner or later. You'll hit something and it'll go back,
but it's kind of slow auditing to let it rise and rise and
rise and rise and get up to 6.0 on the tone arm and then
have it go back to 5.0 and then have it go to 5.5 and then
have it go to 4.0 and then have it go to 5.0, then have it
go to 2.0 and then go on up the line again.

You should realize what you're doing. You're just playing
around with the Rock and its chain. You're just playing
around with this, and you're not really directly
spearheading it. You can make a needle not do this. See?
You can chop it up so the pc isn't just pulling in locks on
the Rock. You can shoot the Rock out from underneath and
practically free a needle almost at once if you're an
expert. All right. I say "at once" - within a few hours
of auditing.

Now, those are the four reactions of a meter and that is
the first of this procedure for the 20th ACC. Confidence in
your meter. Reality on what it is reading.

Now, I got a clue for you. Don't think because it worked on
one preclear that it's going to work on every preclear. So
you want to check every preclear out that you get your paws
on in this course first and foremost when you first start
to audit with the procedure I just gave you.

Now, we don't care what you mark down on the Clear checkout
sheet. You can go right ahead and give a full Clear
checkout sheet. You ought to, to see how they react, but
this is the first thing you ought to do with the meter. Got
that? Now, one of the ways to learn how to check out Clears
is check out plenty of people that aren't. And that's the
only way I know of to learn how to check out Clears. And
when you finally get your paws on a Clear, you'll say WOW!
You know? This is open and shut. Or it's such a relief we
don't care if it flickers a couple of little times over on
the corner, you know? You'll say, "He'll get over that." It
is such a difference. I mean, the difference is so
tremendous. But don't make the mistake of getting an
inoperative meter that is going in tune to the local TV
station, putting the cans in the pc's hands, seeing the
needle is free, and then saying he's Clear. You start right
in from scratch and you have him squeeze those cans so that
you know that the pc is the one who is having the reaction
on the cans, and then if you're giving a Clear checkout try
to stop him with each one of these - try to stamp on him
with each one of these. If you can't turn on any of the
manifestations, he's Clear. The only one he can turn on is
the can squeeze. A Clear squeezing the cans will produce a
drop.

All right. Now, that is your first and foremost action. And
that is where we find ourselves at this stage of the
course. And that one, learn well. There's no sense in
sitting there with an E-Meter in your hands unless you know
that it's operating and that you are causing it to operate
with your auditing commands. And when you get that all
settled, why, it becomes a tool. Up to that time, it's just
something that makes your hand tired during auditing.

All right. We will continue on with this procedure in a
later lecture. I think you're doing very well in going
along with these checkouts, these Clear checkouts. I'm sure
those of you who are doing it are getting it down very
well, but that only comprises at the moment about a quarter
of the class, and the rest of you are going to be coming up
to this. So just because it was done and stressed a few
days ago is no reason why you shouldn't remember it and go
through this exact procedure just as I have given you.

You get this one pat and then we know where we're going and
we know what we're doing and auditing becomes much more
meaningful.

You also should develop an ability to aberrate a preclear
because in 200 years we'll have cleared everybody and that
will be our sole business and we'll have a sign out in
front - "Thetans aberrated: 25-hour-25-hour dissection.
Individuation our specialty. We have the most powerful
electric shock machines known to man." That's what they're
buying right now. We're not selling it. The APA is.

But the point is, your procedure that we are following here
is totally one of reality. And as I describe this to you
and as this is given to you by your Instructors, it is
given to you by the viewpoint of getting you to get the
process real to you before it operates for you as well as
it should.

For instance, there are many parts of Clear Procedure right
now that are totally foggy to most people using it. They
don't realize the help and so forth.

In this communication process here, the ARC Straightwire
process, you should realize one of the most powerful
assists there is underlies this process - one of the most
powerful assists there is.

You just ask a person what part of an aberrated body part
he wouldn't mind communicating with and you're liable to
blow it more solidly than anything else. This is a powerful
process and there are people right here who don't realize
the power of this process. We're going to get that reality
through to you if we possibly can so that it is your
reality. And those of you who have already operated on this
TR for E-Meters, I think, like this method of teaching.
Don't you?

Audience: Yes.

All right. You know more about E-Meters than you did,
don't you?

Audience: Yes.

Yes. Well, that is what we are here to do. Thank you.

Thank you.
