FREEZONE BIBLE ASSOCIATION TECH POST

TRANSCRIPT OF THE CLEARING CONGRESS 7/12


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 Clearing Congress Lectures

    PREREQUISITES TO AUDITING


What did they do - where are you at with the upper indocs?  Let me ask this 
question today.  Has anybody arrived yet at the Congress? (laughing).  Very 
good!  Very good!  Well, today's lectures are dry, uninteresting, extremely 
old, hardly anything in them that you want to know, so pay attention (laugh).

Today ... we've, by the way, heard from some more countries.  You know, this 
is a country we've very often slighted a little bit you know because it's so 
close next door, but that's Canada, and we've heard from our old friend Johan 
Templehoff up in Toronto. "I know this will be the best Congress until the 
next one.  Good listening".  

You know, Scientology is ... occupies the most space on this earth than 
practically anything.  We're certainly occupying more space than several 
other things.  We are in countries that haven't even heard of Christianity.  
That's pretty good.  We're also, we're also to be found, I heard recently, 
inside the iron curtain.  Some fellows telling me that this situation ... and 
I wanted to know which side was inside ... (garbled). (laugh)

Well, I promised you here in these early lectures that we were going to 
review this subject called Scientology,  take a look at it and find out what 
are the essential parts that we had to have in order to Clear people, and I'm 
going to sail into it right now and talk about just that.  It's a very good 
thing to summat importances.  One of the first things you must know in the 
development of anything is that importance.  The evaluation of a datum in 
comparison with other data is more important than an ocean of data.  I hear 
every once in a while somebody saying that some student, he studied it, he 
just got all swamped with data, and so on.  Well, I'll tell you what's wrong 
with that student, he couldn't evaluate importances.  "Be on time at nine 
o'clock at the academy", very important datum.  "Always run a process so 
long as it produces change and no longer", obviously of equal importance, 
aren't they.  Actually the first one is slightly more important because Nibs 
said it (laughing).

The whole trick of developing an adequate and workable and practical science 
of life was connected with this evaluation of importances.  I might let you 
in on a little secret.  One of the things, one of the operating principles ... 
many of the operating principles by the way are in Dianetics, Evolution Of 
A Science, and we've never seen them since but they are still standing there 
as operating principles behind the organization of this particular subject.  
But I took such blocks of knowledge, such wide blocksof knowledge as religion, 
let us say yoga and examined it to find out whether or not it ever done 
anybody any good, and determined whether or not it had or hadn't, as I viewed 
it, and then set the whole block of knowledge aside and no further examination 
was given to it.  In this way, I could weed out all the pieces of knowledge 
that hadn't gotten man anywhere and then this left a very few, this left a 
very few.  It left such things as mathematics and the physical sciences as 
apparently something had done something for him but not too much.  So this 
established a proper pattern of thinkingness in order to go about the 
development of the science.  Now I assure you if yoga had worked everything 
out very beautifully and if we had a very nice result, we would haveused a 
mystic pattern of thinkingness, but it hadn't apparently worked.  

Now, that is what is meant by evaluation of importance.  What were the 
important bodies of data into which one could look.  I found out before I'd 
been on the road very long that even mathematics and the natural sciences 
weren't legitimate areas of examination.  I found out there were some much more 
legitimate areas - life (laugh).  It never occurred to anybody to look there 
before.  Everybody had been studying this subject of livingness, you see, on 
a great many vias and it never occurred to them to look at the guy, and it 
never occurred to them that a mind was visible, and it is.  It might not be 
to the practitioner but it's certainly visible to the person.  He can see it, 
hear it, and smell it, and I've had people tell me, well I don't go into things 
that you can't see, feel, hear, experience, so I don't pay any attention to 
the mind.  I had some physical scientists say this to me and of course it's 
rather deadly thing to say to an auditor, you know (laugh).  You get into 
chanting it's a boy for a little whileand he sees, feels, and experiences mind.  
Some of you people who were around with Dianetics and that of course throws 
them at once into birth, and birth engrams bite.  I've seen people run out 
their noses and ears and sweat and strain and have head somatics and all the 
contractions of delivery and so forth, and this fellow says, I can't be being 
born, I'm 40 years old (chuckle).  A Thetan certainly can mock up well.

Now if, if evaluation of importance is important, then what do we mean by one 
some thing more important than another thing, and let's just put it this way:  
something more real to you than another thing - and we get the basic study 
principle of Scientology,that which is real to you is real, and Scientology 
is that which is real to you, and if a part of Scientology isn't real to you, 
set it on the back burner.  It'll boil over sooner or later (laugh).  I had 
to explain one time to a fellow of rather limited education, what Para-
Scientology was.  This was a coined word we used to use that back in the days 
when we were ashamed of past lives, and I asked him some questions about what 
in Scientology was real to him.  It was Para-Scientology.  Well, what in 
Scientology was real to him - well, not very much.  So I said, then the 
subject of Scientology, in the main, to you is Para-Scientology.   

Here is the way we go about it.  We have a fellow walking down the street, 
he knows nothing of Scientology.  He's never even heard the word, therefore 
it's totally Para-Scientology, it's totally unreal to him - it doesn't exist.  
There is no existence.  Nowhe hears of Scientology and hears that it did 
something good for a friend of his and he has a little hope that it might help 
him or somebody else that he knows.  This little tiny bit of hope and the 
word which he's trying to pronounce correctly.  That much is Scientology and 
all the remainder is Para-Scientology.  And then one day he comes along and 
hears about such a thing as an overt act-motivator sequence.  

Oh what a formidable ..... the difference between formidable words in 
Scientology and the formidable words in earlier bungled studies about the 
mind, the difference is that the words in Scientology are not there to confuse 
you, they are not there to obscure things, and they have a meaning.  Now some 
of you may suspect that they're just there to booby-trap (chuckle) the subject 
for you.  But the truth of the matter is, is they are rather carefully 
selected.  There's been a whole system of nomenclature in which we have simply 
tried to pick the simplest word we could get hold of that would describe the 
thing and then describe it very precisely.  There's a Scientology vocabulary, 
I think, of about 476 words which covers all of the words used in particular 
connotation in Dianetics and Scientology.  That's not really a very large 
vocabulary in that it, that whole vocabulary describes life, the spirit, the 
physical universe, in like 476 words so almost anybody can learn this.  

Alright, this fellow goes along and runs into, one day, the overt act-motivator 
sequence.  You do something to somebody and you think it happened to you.  
He remembers vividly kicking his governess in the shins, you know, and getting 
his silly head knocked off and he says, you know, there's truth in that - 
overt act-motivator sequence.  Now he has some ... he knows the word, he has 
some hope and although he's read a lot of Scientology, nothing had any reality 
to him except when you do something to somebody else, something happens to 
you, and he hasn't even got this right (laughing), you understand.  But that's 
real, it's real to him.  Therefore Scientology to this person, now consists of 
these parts - the word, the hope that it can do something, and his version
of the overt act-motivator sequence, and that's the total of the subject, 
he's read eighteen books, but that's the total of the subject.  That is now 
Scientology to him, you see.  Now we move up the line a little bit further 
and one day he's reading a bookand it says something about auditing and he, 
he hasn't read the auditor's code, he doesn't know very much about it, but he 
hears of something like straightwire, something like this.  He runs into this 
fellow who can't remember a thing so he uses this process and he says, well ... 
The fellow's trying to remember what he said to somebody, so this fellow 
remembers this little process, so he says, "Can you recall a time when you 
communicated with someone?"  "Can you recall a time when you communicated with 
someone?", and so help me this fellows memory opens up and he becomes very 
cheerful, very happy.  Now he did some auditing before.  His wife had an 
operation, was unconscious, he tried to do some auditing and nothing happened.  
The doctor standing right there kept saying, you know, the doctor was right 
because the doctor standing right there kept saying, well, nothing's going 
to happen if you do that (chuckle). And here this fellow, did though, run on 
his friend, a little bit of straightwire and his friend's memory opened up 
and all of a sudden he remembered some incidents that he'd totally forgotten, 
and suddenly remembered he was married and .... (laugh).  After that, why his 
friend went around looking at this fellow that tried it, he'd say, "You know". 
he said, " that's a smart man, I don't know what he can do but you know he's 
a smart man, he does psychotherapy or something of the sort".  The guy modestly 
walks around (demo's thumb in lapel-laughing).  Now he has these parts real, 
Scientology, and the hope is something he's giving other people now.  That's so 
real to him, he gets it up, as I showed you yesterday on the scale of 
dynamics, he got it up to the third dynamic, you know, and so, that's so real 
he takes that for granted.  

Now that's part of believingness and he's got the overt act-motivator sequence, 
wrong version (laugh), that's real, and the fact that there is such a thing 
as auditing and that you can produce results with it, and he can do it.  Of 
course there's only one process (laugh), and that's "Recall a time when you 
communicated with someone".  Here's an interesting state of affairs.

I'll let you in on something, there are actually students who have come and 
gone.  Some of them don't have that much reality on Scientology because their 
idea of study is quite different.  Their idea of study is not assimilation of 
the subject, but a regurgitation of it.  They believe that study has one purpose 
only and that is to record on some superficial area.  They all, when they're 
this way, they all are sure they have a part of the skull they write on in 
shorthand or something, that erases very easily and they take this and they 
read it in a book and they write it down on the inside of the skull, and then 
somebody is supposed to come along and say to them, "what did you study 
yesterday?", suspiciously you know, and they're supposed to get off the hot 
seat simply by copying down what they wrote on this part of the skull on a 
piece of paper and handing it to them.  That's an examination and they pass 
the subject - they got A, and now they're through with it, aren't they?  

Now, we're embarking on a new system of studying when we embark up on a study 
of Scientology. It's a new thing, it's a brand new thing.  Nobody demands of 
you, in spite of what your instructors do sometimes when you go to school on 
it, nobody is really demanding of you that you swallow the whole thing and 
then spit it out and have done with it.  That is not the system.  It's the 
instructor's plea, more or less goes this way, please for God's sake understand 
it because you're not going to be able to do anything unless you grab hold of 
it.  The instructor is trying to say, get some reality on it son or miss, get 
some reality on it.  Now the best instruction would simply be on a basis of 
study all of it you please but pick out that on which you have some reality.  
Then get further reality on what you have picked out that was quite real and 
then study it again, and what do you know, another little iron door would have 
opened up and you've got some reality on something else, because the study of 
this subject is not the study of a subject, it's the study of life.  The 
subject came from life, it applies to you.  It isn't invented or created in 
any way, shape, or form.  If it hadn't been for an agreement on what to have 
wrong with you, called the Axioms, if it hadn't been for this, you wouldn't 
be here. 

I had somebody say to me sometime, you know, he looks at me through glasses 
that thick (demonstrating an inch with fingers), and back of that he's looking 
at me through a field that thick (demonstrating about 3 feet) and so forth, and 
he talks to me about your ideas on the mind and I say well, I said, you know 
my ideas on the mind are entirely different than Scientology and, yeah, he 
says, mine are too (laughing).  Wonderful! 

No, all we have traced here is that system of agreements which has brought 
about a condition of... we call life.  A condition of livingness, and unless 
we address these specific agreements, we get nowhere.   Unless you know 
Scientology before you study Scientology, you couldn't study Scientology.  You 
get the idea?  You have to know it first and this is the only subject I know 
of that we can guarantee that you did it first.  We don't find people without 
engrams unless we Clear them.  We don't find people who have to wear an anchor 
on each ankle to be able to walk down the street because they haven't agreed 
to gravity.  We just don't find people around who are disobeying all these 
things because if they were, they wouldn't be here.  It's a process of 
elimination.  

Now, somebody else in some other universe may have agreed to a number of other 
postulates, but the funny part of it is, they undoubtedly agreed to these 
postulates on the same pattern that they agreed to the postulates in this 
universe, and we could undo theirs too.  Now, the point we're making here then 
is, it is a study of something, it is a study of life and the universe, and it 
is a study along certain patterns.  But an individual can find life and all 
other things so terribly unreal that when they study some part of life they 
go and enroll in psychology class.  That's about the most horrible thing that 
could happen to anyone, you know.  Now there are people undoubtedly that hear 
about this and they'll think I'm being much, much too severe on past 
psychotherapy and it is professional jealousy, or something of the sort.  
I'm not.  Probably the only reason I mention it is to sort of shake people a 
little bit loose from it, make them question it just a little bit, please.  
Because subjects which don't do anything for anybody except confuse them are 
always held in suspicion by me.  I mean it's a peculiarity on my part.  I know 
other people cherish subjects that do that.  I'm peculiar, I like to see a 
subject effective and workable and usable, and that in essence, is what we have.  

But how do we communicate this subject to a person who already knows it, to 
whom life is totally obscured.  Now there's quite a trick, and the trick I was 
just showing you about, make them pick up that which is real to them and then 
something else that's real to them in the subject, and something else that's 
real to them.  The possibility exists that they went over the whole subject 
on all it's literature and all it's tapes, and I assure you there's millions 
and millions of words on that subject.  Picking out each time that thing which seemed 
absolutely true and real and which they could agree with, and so on, they 
would probably wind up at the end of a couple of centuries, Clear.  Therefore, 
the knowledge that is being picked up isn't a second hand knowledge.  When we 
say reality, or that which you agree with, we say when you find in Scientology 
something you already find in yourself, you got it.  You see, it's there, 
therefore it's real, because you can own it and take responsibility for it, 
because you sense it's true.  

You could never educate anybody in Scientology by making them sit down and 
grind through all the material and say, well I don't care what your opinions 
are, the truth of the matter is that Axiom 41 is Axiom 41 and if you don't get 
it, you're going to flunk and that of course means social ostracism, the 
father and mother won't like you anymore, the usual thing they do in public 
schools.  The first thing you have to have to train somebody in Scientology is 
somebody who wants to know something about life.  That immediately skims off 
of the human race, the upper few ten thousands.  They want to know something 
about life, they really want to know.  

Some people tell me sometime, well people in Scientology, you know ...
(garbled)....  Of course, they get very short shrift from me because I know 
in actuality, having shopped around and looked under the stones, and back of 
the pillars, and a few things like that.  I've looked around and I found people 
that did not want to know anything about life, didn't want to go anywhere, 
were in a total apathy of utterly sunk, and there is a limited number of people 
on earth who will suddenly up and volunteer to look over and study something.  
It's a limited number,  They're the upper intelligentsia.  I'm not telling 
you that for your ego's sake, out profiles prove it.  People, when they come 
in, they're the smarter people.  One of these days, why these people picking 
up other people, you see, will make another strata and when they can look, 
will want to know too, - when they can look.  

Someday you will be processing cases, scraping the bottom of the barrel, so 
to speak, he didn't want to know, he didn't want to be there.  All he wanted 
was to do was to keep on shooting people like he always did, you know, and he 
wanted to lead a normal life with his proper quota of anti-social diseases.  
You try to get him into the auditing room and he screams all the way down the 
hall, and the neighbors complain, and an auditor should be able to handle such 
a case, and you can actually do something for this case.  It wasn't true 
yesterday but it certainly is true today, and when we get such a case, to be 
able to unwrap him and put him up into an ability, to see an ability to 
experience and feel and live again, why of course we will actually have done 
something.  

The cases you are auditing by and large, are those cases that you have told 
enough to so that they volunteered.  So of course, you're just skimming the 
upper cream of earth. In Clearing, we crack the person who didn't want anything 
to do with anything anyhow, he went all the way down.  As a matter of fact, 
we went further south than that to a person who is normally psychotic, is now 
in a coma, and now we can process this person.  The only person we can't process 
at this time, I will confess to you, clearly, is the person we can't find 
because he's left the body.  Now, we can't process that person at this time 
(chuckle).  In the next ACC we're taking that up (laughing).

So we've gotten it, we've gotten it pretty well, pretty well dusted off.  We're 
a long way from Dianetics where we asked somebody to lie still at least, and 
pull an engram up and run it.  He had to be willing to lie still and he had to 
be in good enough shape so that he would follow an order we could not inspect.  
I've had such cases as would not ..... they would pretend to submit to auditing 
and I had such cases come around to me that say later - "boy, I sure fooled 
that auditor.  I have been saying yes, yes, yes all week long and I haven't 
done a thing".  Of course he walks out the front door and falls flat on his 
face, he's been restim'd totally (laugh).  But here's, here's a long look, in 
other words, we can process anybody, God help them.  

Now processing a person today is an enforcement of reality, only for a short 
period of time.  That is, when they are totally unwilling because the processes 
themselves then snap them up to a point where they can see there's some point 
in it, which is a good thing, a pretty good thing.  Now you compare this 
to .... there's an old practice that the witch doctors in the Ubangi territory 
used to practice.  I think the witch doctors were known as sukiryatrists 
(laugh).  They had, they had electric shock machines that they pulsed against 
people's heads and they thought this made them well and when it didn't make 
them well, then they went in with drills and bits into the brain, you know, 
and did something or other in the brain and killed the Thetan.  The 
psychiatrists..... er, sukiryatrists, excuse me, method of approach is totally 
enforced insanity under the guise of enforcing sanity.  Well, it's only 
legitimate to enforce a reality on somebody when it is a reality which they 
then will find freedom by embracing. 

There's a bunch of prisoners in the stockade and you know there's a door 
unlocked.  So, you go to them and you say, "the south door is unlocked" and 
they say, "you silly fool, you know the south door is never left unlocked and 
we're gonna stay right here".  It's perfectly legitimate, boy, to sock 'em on 
the jaw, drag 'em over, open up the south door and throw them out (laugh).  
As long as they're outside, it's legitimate (laugh).  It's true, because when 
they wake up they say, "You know, I'm free, thanks bud".  You know, big 
difference!  It's, evidently, not the way to play the game to throw them in 
a deep hole on an enforced reality and close the lid over on them.  That's the 
way they've been playing the game so long, we've got to reverse the flow.  
There's no further flow in the direction of entrapment, see.  That's a totally 
stuck flow.

Now the subject itself has advanced apparently in leaps and bounds, and most 
people believe that every time the subject advances, every thing that was 
known before is forgotten and lost.  No!  The only thing that happens to the 
stuff that went before is it's amplified.  You can understand it a little 
better.  The evaluation of importance makes some of it not quite so important, 
not quite so important as it was, but it's still there and still part of the 
subject.
