FREEZONE BIBLE ASSOCIATION TECH POST

TRANSCRIPT OF THE CLEARING CONGRESS 4/12


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.

The writings of LRH form our Old Testament just as the writings
of Judiasm 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 the Christians are not good and obedient Jews and yet
are allowed 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 FACTORS OF CLEARING

**************************************************

(lecture continued from part 3/12)

Well, he doesn't have this around as long as he's got grandma, but then he 
gets a substitute grandma, but it's just a series of pictures.  So you could 
say this mind is divisible into a simple picture and a complex picture.  The 
complex picture simply delineates a personality and the simple picture 
delineates a scene.  But they're all pictures and they are all created, and 
this is the one thing the world will never swallow and it's a secret just 
between ourselves - and can you keep a secret?  The one thing we must not 
tell people is, that they are responsible for themselves, personally, for 
all the difficulties that ever occurred to them.  That you must not tell 
them.

I well remember in 1952 when I wrote Advanced Procedures And Axioms, I put 
a section in it that said, "Responsibility", and people used to pick this 
book up, with what airy confidence, you know, pick it up.  "oh, oh, wonderful, 
wonderful - responsibility".  They look at the Chart of Attitudes that came 
out with Handbook For Preclears, and it said, "responsibility - full 
responsibility - mmmm......- well, I used to study Yogi, I think I'll go 
back to that" (laughing).

The best trick that a Thetan does is to make something and then say, "I 
didn't do it".  He starts moving off these responsibility zones, and 
responsibility in itself is a tremendous subject all by itself, but it's 
the one thing you must not tell people bluntly, quickly, unless of course 
you sort of want to give them the shock of their lives.  You got a bad leg, 
you're mocking up a bad leg.  You're in grandpa's valence, you're mocking up 
grandpa's valence.  You really hang them with it, because that's what you
have to assume when you Clear people. There's theoretically a one-shot Clear, 
which is "What part of existence could you be responsible for?", and when a 
person has answered that, and taken all parts of existence and his own mind 
and everything else, and he's willing to be responsible for all those 
things, within and without, microcosm - macrocosm, he then would be Clear, 
if he could do it - long road.

The only place we use that thing today is solving a present time problem.  
You say, "What part of that problem could you be responsible for?", and 
ordinarily, the problem just goes out, flickety flack, and solves itself up.  
But nevertheless, it is evidently true that willingness to be responsible 
for coordinates with sanity, and total unwillingness to be responsible for 
coordinates with aberration.  So we get irresponsibility as the opposite 
number of aberration, neuroses, difficulty, upset, and so on.  Well, why 
is it then that this individual  gets all of this silly stuff if he'd only 
be well if he could be responsible for it.  Why does he get all this stuff 
and become irresponsible for it.  Well, part of its content is this, life 
and Thetans in general have rigged out one that is a super aberrative 
factor.  You go and you shoot somebody, you know, it's a calm night, nothing 
much is happening, you go out and shoot somebody.  The old days, the way the 
West is portrayed on tv, how they loved shooting somebody. Quite wonderful.  
Anyway, they shot somebody, "what happened here?"  "Well", they said. "so I 
shot somebody".  Shooting people wasn't aberrative, probably dying wasn't 
either.  But then somebody came along and said, "Oh, you shot him, eh - well, 
we're going to arrest you, and we're going to execute you and take your body 
away.  You took somebody else's body away, we're gonna take your body away".  

They invented, in other words, overt act mechanisms and the guy didn't dare 
say he was responsible for killing somebody.  He said (garbled), and bang.  
Then he had to go around and say, I didn't do it, I didn't do it, I didn't 
do it, clean hands, hey look the gun hasn't been fired, I didn't do it, and 
we get a way of life which is summed by, - "I didn't do it".  You realize, 
that's our modern way of life.  You know, you say to somebody, "Did you put 
out the milk bottles?",  "Well, I don't know why you're asking me because 
you normally put them out every night, and you know very well......".  All 
you want to do is find out if the milk bottles got put out, and you're in a 
fight.  You just want to know that.  That's all you want to know, you don't 
want to know anything else.  They got responsibility mixed up in this.  
Who's job it is.  I'm sure, I'm sure that a lot of government officials have 
their job mixed up.  Don't you think possibly they have?  And the main thing 
they would tell you is, "this department is not responsible for that".  
That's the main thing you hear.  "Well, I couldn't report my income tax 
exactly last year because I hadn't received all of the income and I still 
owed quite a few bills, but I didn't know what the bills were because I 
didn't know how much I had incurred".  "Ha, ha", the Internal Revenue says, 
"That's none of our responsibility, where is your income tax report?", see.

This gag runs everywhere.  I pulled a funny gag on some people.  I don't get 
in many automobile accidents, as a matter of fact, I haven't been in one for 
years.  Except the other day, I was running down past the State War and Navy 
building which is now, I guess, the presidential annex or something, and a 
guy started up at the light, and the light was red. He noticed that it was 
red, so he stopped, and the car behind him started up and hit the back of 
that front car, and I happened to be the third in line.  That was very 
embarrassing.  The only thing I could say, to keep from being responsible 
for it, is that there was a red-headed girl crossing the street (laughing).  
Now you think that is a gag, but it happens to be true, and Bonnie Turner 
can attest to it. I was actually looking in that direction for some reason 
or another, there must have been something else over there (laughing).  So 
here I was, smashed into the back of this car and these drivers came around 
and they said, who did what - blah, blah, blah - they were all nervous and 
shaking and trying to get out their drivers licenses and so forth.  I was 
standing there, and I was trying hard to get my car started and find out how 
much damage had been done, and I looked at all this nervousness, and I looked 
at them and I said, wow, I said it was my fault, I did that, and they both 
calmed down completely, put away the things, got in their car, and .......
(laughing).  

So here's this wonderful factor of irresponsibility versus responsibility.  
And, a Thetan uses irresponsibility to keep himself individuated thoroughly 
enough, as thoroughly as he thinks he needs to be, and he over does it, and 
you get aberration.  That's about all there is to that.  And, even though 
his creativeness becomes very impeded so he cannot consciously create, he 
nevertheless continues to unconsciously create, and evidently, the more you 
step on his ability to create consciously, the more he displays his ability 
to create unconsciously.

You can shove somebody clear on down into automatic poltergeist.  I remember 
in 1950 some of the Dianeticists around there were very delighted with a 
young boy who could get on a rug and make it shoot underneath the table, 
and make it shoot all over the room.  It was a very amusing situation.  They 
got five or six priests in to demon exorcise him and so forth, of course 
they meant to chop out a few circuits.  That kid was shooting rugs everywhere.
Well, I'm sure everybody could shoot rugs everywhere if they wanted to be 
responsible for it, or if they were so irresponsible that it happened anyway.  
Well, people hang in between and so they can't shoot rugs around on floors, 
and that's why you don't have magic carpets anymore - that's why, why you 
have to buy Gulf gas (laugh).

Now here, here is this factor entering into this second part and this second 
part is a very clearly delineated part, which is Mind.  Now what do we mean 
by mind?  We mean, it is that product of a Thetan which compounds his 
experience, personalities, and the way he thinks it ought to be, and the way he 
hopes it isn't,  and we get a mass, and that mass is actually composed of 
thoughts.  The big mistake the Buddhists make is to consider themselves 
thoughts.  They are not thoughts.  Nobody ever thought them.  They are not 
thoughts.  They consider themselves masses of knowledge.  Now, I don't 
consider myself any mass of knowledge.  I don't try to remember anything, 
much to the despair of my staff most of the time, but there isn't any reason 
why you can't just create anything you want to know, at any time you want 
to know it, or go take a look.  But instead of that, people get on a storage 
of knowledge basis, storage of experience.  You can't get hired by the 
government unless you have just so much experience.  It doesn't matter if you 
do anything or not, it's how much experience you've got, see.

They expect that to be all kind of massed up in the mind, and it's this plus 
the personalities a person has known, pictures of, in other words, they take 
pictures of these personalities and they add all these things together, and 
then they may dream up some machinery and say, the machinery makes these 
pictures, only the machinery itself, is just another picture, you see.  Or 
they say, I knew this person who did this obsessively and that person now 
haunts me.  No, no, nothing is haunting them except a picture they are 
constantly making of that person.  You have to understand that clearly if 
you're going to Clear anybody, because the person himself is doing all of 
this.  Now I give you that simply as a technical factor, not as a factor to 
be told to people you're going to Clear, (chuckle) because they won't like 
it.

A fellow is sitting there, you know, a normal man (chuckle), he's sitting 
there and you say, "well" - I tell you how not to audit somebody - you say, 
"when did you know somebody who was....like that?"  The person might say and 
he might not say.  You say, "well, just how are you making up that mock-up?", 
and he says, "well, how I'm making it up?  Oh, I got this way because of 
the terrible operations I've had. The doctors all did this to me".  Oh yea!  
Well, it did happen, but it persists on the equation that he takes no 
responsibility for mocking it up, and then it gets a persistence.  I was 
auditing a Pc one day, it was a very, very wonderful example of this. The 
Pc was saying, "Well, itsa...." -  we'll alter the facts slightly so the Pc 
won't jump out of his skin because he's here - "well I can't help it being 
this way, I guess it's because of my father, you know my father was like 
this, my father did this all the time, and I had headaches, and he wished 
them off on me, just wished them off on me, and so I got this headache".  I 
said, "well now, lets go over this again slowly, where did this headache 
come from?"  "Well, my father wished them off on me and sexually he did it 
and he kicked me around", and so forth, and we went over this for a few 
minutes and then all of a sudden it dawned on this Preclear, he said, "Well, 
my father isn't there, and I've been blaming my father for this, and it's my 
headache, and I've been blaming my fa......", and bam, the headache went, 
and it was a severe headache, see.  Interesting, hey?

In other words, you can audit somebody the rest of their lives without ever 
introducing any gradient scale of responsibility, and you would never get a 
Clear.  But, unfortunately, you cannot simply audit them directly at 
responsibility and get a Clear.  Say, well you see that ceiling, see all the 
flaws in it, see the wall, see how badly those curtains are hung, look at how 
bad that cloth is over there in the curtain, see that, and get this thread 
that's loose here in my coat, you're responsible for all that (laughing).  
You're not going to get any Clears.  So, somewhere in between these two 
courses you get Clearing.  The person sooner or later has to, and does by 
the processes we use, abruptly cognite upon this magnificent fact and that is, he is mocking it all
up himself, and has to mock it up consciously in order to have it there.  
Then the person becomes much happier because they've forgotten they were 
mocking it up.  So we have this thing called Mind as the second part that 
we were studying.  

And then the next part is very, very simple.  There's hardly anything to it 
except Latin names and that's Body, and if you look over, if you look over 
corpus, look up corpus in the medical dictionary, why you will see thereafter 
that a body is a very easy thing to understand.  It is merely a tremendous 
number of Latin names.  They don't have to attach themselves to anything, 
they just are, you know, and you get all of these parts and they're all Latin 
names.  As a matter of fact, that's unjust.  That was the scholastic's method 
of teaching this subject, the subject of medicine.  Of more recent years, 
they actually did start to cut up corpses and start looking at a body to 
find out what a body is.  Well, a body is a machine, or it is a mock-up, but 
it definitely is a thing, it is something.  It is a form, it has persistence, 
it runs a certain cycle of action from birth to death, it does have parts, 
it is ambulant, it has various recognizable factors, everybody has different 
fingerprints than everybody else, perhaps.  People look different one to the 
next, and you get this thing called a body.  Now from this we get the idea 
of ambulant matter or life injected or imbued matter existing in life created 
space, running on life exchanged or created energy and we get the whole class 
of things that we call bodies.  And today, they are interestingly enough, 
building machines which are almost indistinguishable from bodies.  They 
depend, they never noticed this, utterly upon their operator.  They don't 
depend so much upon the operator's body as the operator's thinkingness and 
ability to think.  You take the Univac, the Eneac, some of these later 
thinking machines, they're quite wonderful.  People stand around....all 
science, evidently, today is being conducted on the basis of these Univacs 
and Eneacs which is one of the more gorgeous things you ever saw because 
they never noticed that somebody has to ask the question and somebody has 
to read the answer.  The two things the machine will not do, and yet this 
current that runs there, everything is supervised by life, and you have an 
organism which moves and we get a sort of a thing that isn't really a body 
but is close to a body, you know.  An automobile has this characteristic, 
it's a little bit further from it, but it's still life animated.  And then 
we have the universe which is life animated. Well, I shouldn't have gone 
into that quite so quick.

But we get the next two parts, the first of which is a body, which is 
intimately life animated, biological organism as we understand it these 
days, each part of which is steeply and deeply invisibly imbued with life, 
and that is a body.  Now, we have bodies of all kinds, whether dinosaurs or 
cockroaches, and they all more or less operate on the same basic principle.  
They have to be animated  every instant by a Thetan, or they aren't.

Now we get something then, that endures a little more broadly and we call 
this thing, the Universe, and of course, it just runs, and nobody gives it 
any attention at all, does it?  Yeah, well, we get up against this problem 
of who created the universe.  I say you did it, and you say I did it and we 
get wonderful persistence (chuckle).  It's a funny thing this stuff that 
goes along here with us in one level of time.  If you start to investigate 
it a little bit, you'll find out that it has the most complex pieces. If you 
look into a piece of matter you find out it has various other elements than 
the one you thought it did.  You think it's made out of sand and concrete 
and you find out it also has iron and copper and gold and all sorts of things 
in it.  You just take a little chip out of one of those columns and you'll 
see at once that it has other things in it, many other things.  It's only 
complicated by the idea that it's congealed chaos that is now regimented 
into a less chaotic form.  Now whoever made it, whoever's running it, we 
still had it.

Now, there's no question about the fact that you are running your body, this 
is demonstrable.  But that you are running the universe is a little harder 
to prove, no matter who you're trying to prove it to, it's a little harder 
to prove.  You try to prove it to a certain class of priest in this 
particular society at this particular time, and they throw you in the 
booby-hatch.  The psychiatrist, he knows that anybody who claims that he 
is making the universe, he knows what that person is, that person is crazy, 
but he doesn't know what crazy is.  

I love some of these points of assumption.  They announce grandly, so and 
so is insane because he thinks so and so and so and so but then they never 
tell you what insane means.  Well, they say, well that's easy, he's not 
sane.  You say fine, what is sane?  (garbled) not playing the game right to 
ask questions like that (laugh), you've done us a great error here.  Now, if 
we look at the body, we can, we can claim an ownership and a finite zone of 
control.  We say, well we lift our hands and so on.  Remember the old gag we 
used to do, flop, flop, flop, flop, flop, flop, and you say after a while, 
after the guy's flopped his hamnds a while, "who's doing that?"  and soon 
"I am", very happy about it, he can do something with his hands.  Well, now 
you say, "flop that building over there".  Well you've just run too steep a 
scale, that's all, that's the only thing wrong with it.

So we have to compartment these next two parts into body or bodies and then 
into universe or universes.  Anybody who says this is the only universe there 
is, is probably lost.  And we have these next two classes, and we actually 
only have four elements that we're studying, and any time you believe we're 
studying more that four elements, then you've gone astray and you won't 
Clear anybody.  

Somebody comes up with a new hypertension idea that he has a ghost named 
throgmagog that gives him orders and you suddenly say, well this is not 
part of his mental equipment, there actually is a ghost named throgmagog 
and it does so and so and so and so and that is part of his mind and I will 
therefore have to treat him with witchcraft in order to separate him from 
the ghost throgmagog - you're not going to Clear anybody.  I know, because 
we've tried all these things.  What do you think we've been doing for eight 
years but throwing stuff out the window.  Right!  Alright!

So when we get down to final analysis, there are just four elements and they 
are :  Thetan, Mind, Bodies, Universe/Universes.  Just those four elements 
and I tell you today, this is more important than it used to be, we just did 
this so you people could just view these four things.  Well there wasn't 
any reason to just view these........  You've got to be able to look at life 
in small packages in order to Clear anybody, because.... you say, "alright, 
you're all involved in the middle of this chaos called life in this universe 
and it has 8,762 parts and you've got to memorize them all and just take a 
look at all those and realize you're responsible for all those.  That's fine, 
you're Clear. Thank you".  That's not gonna work, not gonna work.  You have 
to bring it down, so that he can focus his sights on it.

So you have these four parts.  Now you've all heard of these four parts, 
they're part of Fundamentals Of Thought but they become very important 
today because all you are doing is asserting control over body and 
demonstrating creativeness of mind to make a Clear.  That's all you have 
to do.  The rest of it is OT - Operating Thetan - way upstairs.  To make a 
Clear, all you have to do is show a fellow that he's mocking up his own 
mind, therefore his own difficulties, and that he is not completely adrift 
in and swamped by a body.  And then, there he is, you've got a Clear.  And, 
all the things that they learned about aberration, psychosis, neuroses, 
libido, scribido, bibido, all of these hocus pocus...."the economic neural, 
binaural oral system that never matriculated...."and so forth, endlessly. 
8,762 medical terms, none of which relate to anything that would cure anybody.  
You can just forget the whole works, you see, because you just do these two 
things, you just take the first two items, the Thetan, and you get him to 
confront the fact that he has a body, and wipe out that mind, and you've 
got a Clear.  That's all there is to it.

As far as the universe is concerned, we're talking about something which a 
person has to walk way upstairs about, just as I say wave your hand, okay, 
wave that building - and it's quite a jump.  But Clear is a finite state.  
It does exist as a finite state.  It is an ultimate, and it is an absolute.  
And those are very interesting things for me to say because I used to say 
they weren't, when I was trying to dodge away from people saying, "Where are 
all those Clears?".  Well, I'm not dodging now.  Clear is a thing, it is 
stable, and it simply depends upon mastery of the mind in recognition of the 
body in universe.  That's all there is to it.  That's all the thing you're 
trying to do.  You're not trying to get a person to take responsibility for 
everything on earth or anything of the sort.  A Clear could be said to be 
basic personality revealed.

And, you have stood up, and I'm going to sit down now.  Thank you.
