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,

20ACC-34 (20A)  8 Aug 58 REQUISITES AND FUNDAMENTALS OF A SESSION

REQUISITES AND FUNDAMENTALS OF A SESSION

A lecture given on 8 August 1958

[Based on the clearsound version only.]

And this is lecture 20A of the 20th ACC, August 8th, 1958.
Now going to take up the rudiments of session. The
rudiments of a session.

Now, the rudiments are something you get rid of and then
you never pay any more attention to. That's the usual
definition, just as a TR is something that you never use
again because you just found out that it's not valid.

If you understand cases and understand what makes them
well, you won't make flubs. But you can go off into a whole
bunch of tearing nowheres, and I do mean a bunch of tearing
nowheres, on the wild theory that you can do it all at once
or something of this sort with a case. Now I'll lay it
right on the line. I've processed more cases, added up more
cases, seen more cases processed, directed more techniques
to be run than will probably ever be assembled again under
one roof in the next God knows when. Now I make that very
clear. I lay it right on the line, see? Now, these are the
bones on which the visible flesh of Scientology exists,
this fantastic amount of research, fantastic. Now, I'm not
saying that I have run everything that you will ever think
of. That is a very - would be a very stupid thing for me
to say. I will say that in eight years I've run practically
everything that has ever been suggested to me.

I think there was one new suggestion or two in the last
year and they came from old-timers that had been in there
for a long time, you know? And they got an idea about
something or other and they wrote in this idea and this
idea did shed some light on an obscure corner. Got the
idea? They'd run into something, they thought this was
pretty good and they sent it in.

Well, I always tell everybody that they'd better send in
anything they happen to run into, for the very reason that
it'd be totally in- stupid of me to say that I had run into
everything and worked with everything that could ever be
worked with in the human mind. You see, that'd be a
Freudian statement or something.

I have had some humility of one kind or another along this
line in that I was perfectly willing to admit at any given
instant that I knew nothing about the whole subject. I was
not trying to uphold my own integrity because that was not
important to me. That was quite important, too. And I was
not trying to sell anybody a process or sell anybody a
theory just for the sake of selling one.

And people have watched this occasionally with considerable
horror, you know? They saw me come off of running engrams
and go into exteriorizing people. And then later on, why,
they heard me say that exteriorizing people was for the
birds. If you didn't exteriorize them into a willingness to
be exteriorized, you were nowhere and that frankly we
didn't have it made on making them willing to exteriorize,
see? I've even sat down and said, "I've made four mistakes,
you know? Here it is, you know? I've made these mistakes,"
and so on.

And the common denominator of anything I've done has been,
I hope, honesty. And people, over a period of time, who
could cheerfully have shot me in 1951 have turned around
and come back and said, "Well, he seems to be the only one
who knows where he's going or what he's doing." You know?
Just because it was an honest line of research. Just
totally honest, sincere - there isn't any pitch to it.

Now, we are dealing with firm fundamentals, and therefore I
ask each and every one of you to understand the firmness of
these fundamentals. And I've had to whip up some of these
fundamentals into an understandingly translatable form,
into words, just for this ACC right here. So don't think we
are not still learning.

But what we know, boy, do we know. We know we know it. You
got it? What I'm about to give you as the requisites and
fundamentals of a session, we know. Not, you adventure off
these at your peril. I'm not telling you that at all. You
want to waste your time, it's okay with me.

You start running conditions of one kind or another on a
preclear and patching up this lifetime and so forth, you'll
wake up somewhere up the line in six months or a year and
say, "Why am I not clearing anybody?" You're not running
procedures exactly and instantly and immediately made and
tailor-made to clear people. That's why.

Clearing is something else than putting a person back
together again. We know all kinds of ways to put a human
being back into a state of being a better human being, you
understand? We're not even vaguely interested in them.

You come up perhaps with a new technique that makes better
human beings human beings, and a big bunch of new vias on
the line of one kind or another, yeah, you're just avoiding
making Clears. Don't kid yourself. And don't try to kid me.
When I see this, that and the other thing going on, you
must be putting some new vias on the line for some reason
or other because I can list the fundamentals of what it
takes to make a Clear here, in such a very few minutes that
they're hardly worth recounting. And when these are dropped
and avoided, why, you've had it.

Now you're going to sit there right this minute and say -
about the case that you're auditing right now, or about
the case you were auditing in the last auditing period -
on some of these you're going to say, "Hey, say, what do
you know. I didn't do that, you know?" Yeah, you will, so
just stand by right here. Here they go.

First, willingness on the part of the pc to have the
auditor audit him; that's your first requisite to a
session. I could bite some of you for always saying to me,
"What process do you use to do this?" You know, you guys
are the ones, you guys are the ones that made me put things
into process form, you realize that? We didn't have
anything like a process way back when. And the heroic thing
about it is, is that I have. That's utterly incredible.

We've got a process for everything that a two-way comm
could do. It's fabulous. Dick was saying the other day,
"Oh, God, if there were just four things we could teach an
auditor." Two-way comm was one of them. Judgment was
another one. These things - these things are paramount.
There's a screaming need for it and there's only one way
we can do it and that's to clear you. The only way we can
do that is clearing you.

But one of these days, maybe the 21st, 22nd ACC, why, with
great aplomb, we'll be teaching people who are spun-in and
half flat on their faces two-way comm and so forth with
some kind of a process, you know? This will be an
interesting thing but it'll undoubtedly happen. Even that
can occur. But right now remember that we are processing
short of some things. So therefore, we have to have it
awfully exactly laid out. And that's no invalidation of
you. It's a matter of a communication line.

And evidently a process is necessary to a communication
line in this particular subject so that you can codify
something. But to do that, for God's sakes, you have to lay
down the exact microscopic fundamentals that are totally
accurate on every given impulse and leave nothing to
understanding at all.

Boy, that's an awful horseshoe to be dropped around
somebody's neck with a clank, let me tell you. All right,
well, we've done it. Now, when I tell you that the preclear
must be willing to have an auditor there, I'm going back
through a series of processes designed to do this. One was
"Look at me, who am I?" That is the ancestor of these
processes. "Look at me, who am I? Look at me, who am I?"
And after a while, he finds out you're not his dentist.
Now, when I say he finds out that you're not his dentist,
you think I'm inferring that this pc has to be pretty
spinny to have such a misconcept. Oh, no, not at all. This
fellow is sitting there, he's well dressed, he's bright,
he's alert, he's a success in his profession, he's
brilliant and you're auditing him. Boy, every time you come
off the basis of, "He's too sane for me to go into things
like this," you've had it! And about two intensives later
you say, "What is wrong here?" What is wrong is your
incurable, wonderful optimism regarding your fellow human
being, his state.

And where this is very touching, and I respect you for this
tremendous idea of the sanity of your fellow man, I must
condemn it as unwise in auditing.

Now, I don't say you have to run, "Look at me, who am I?"
on every preclear in order to audit them. I didn't say
that. But you for heaven's sakes must have a pc willing to
have you for an auditor. Not you because I said so. Not you
because your Instructors assigned you. He must be willing
to have you as an auditor. And if you're hot and you're
good, the next thing you know, he's more willing to have
you as an auditor than anybody else in the entire course.
You understand that? I don't expect you to be good along
this line. I expect you to be perfect.

And do you know that he can be put along this groove?
Because there's not a one of you here now, not one of you,
but what would stay in there and pitch and do the right
thing as to the best of your ability. You understand that?
But oddly enough, you as preclears don't understand it. And
you're afraid this auditor's going to make a flub, that
you've got as a pc, and spin you in, and wind you up and
not know whether you're coming or going and so forth.

And we get to the next point. Nearly every pc here is so
far out of session that I, if I were auditing him, would
spend two or three hours simply putting him in-session. Two
or three hours. When I got a pc in-session, the building
next door could totally blow up and the wall fall in, and
he wouldn't notice. His confidence would be sufficiently
great as to have no outside influence penetrating his
lookingness and workingness with his own bank. That's
in-session. Got it? The pc is going into session during the
first three-quarters of an auditing intensive. Any
allocated period of auditing, about three-quarters of it
is spent by the pc going a little bit better into session,
providing he's got a very smart and a very good auditor.
And while you're looking far afield for magic tricks that
will clear cases much faster, the magic trick is sitting
right in front of your face. Put him in-session. That's the
magic trick.

And what is "in-session"? He is so relaxed and so
confident, so hopeful, that no matter what he runs into
he'll run through it. And the more he's in-session, the
more he feels you're in there pitching with him, the more
he can run through and the faster he can go through it and
the more he can confront and the more bank he can get rid
of. You got it? And the further he is out of session, the
less he gets done. It has nothing to do with what you run
on him. Nothing to do with it at all. And when somebody
comes to me and tells me some new trick, and I know damn
well he doesn't get his pcs in-session, I could almost cry
in his face. But I'm a nice guy and I don't. And I say,
"Good. Fine. Thank you." It's in-sessionness, it is getting
an auditing session going that is important, and continuing
that session that is important. And that clears people.

And you could run "Abba-dabba-boo-boo" and clear somebody
if he had total confidence in you as an auditor and he was
totally relaxed in session. Do you know he could look at
the whole flam-damn bank and tell you what the technique
was? Do you know that? He'd just look brrrrrrrrrrr! Whew!
"Hey, I didn't know I was mocking that up. Isn't that
interesting? Hm-hm, hm-hm." Do you get the idea? How do you
suppose I found out things from pcs? Why do they tell me
these things? It isn't altitude. Fifty percent of the pcs
that walk in are less willing to go in session because I'm
auditing them because they are superstitious about what I
can see. Whereby they'd go down and talk to an HGC auditor,
they think they've got to put on a good show for me.

And I rack them over the coals in an awful hurry and spend
nearly all of my time getting them squared, curing the
altitude factor in most of the cases, not by making nothing
out of myself - that's the standard social mechanism. The
way you cure altitude is to make nothing out of yourself,
you know? You can play a concerto in A-flat major upside
down with rubber gloves on, you know, and play rings around
Paderewski. So you sit down at a piano at a party and say,
"Well, I've just taken a couple lessons, I don't play very
well, you know, don't play very well." Standard social
mechanism.

Don't use it in auditing. And don't try to overwhump them
with how good you are. At the same time, don't let them be
overwhumped by how good you are. Because then you've just
got an overwhumped preclear, not a preclear in-session; and
that's hypnotism. His willingness has got to be up, way up.
How do you raise that willingness? Please don't say, "What
process do you use?" We have certain things that are the
fundamentals of Scientology and they have to do with
willingness and certainty.

You can make any of these things into a process so that you
can ask them, but you've already got your processes laid
out from the earliest times in this particular subject.
It's just as true today that a person has to be certain of
something, anything, to get better, as it was years ago.

We ask this individual, "What part of this session is
acceptable to you?" We're simply asking for a certainty -
old Certainty Process of one kind or another, a willingness
process, Certainty Process. You want to know if he's
absolutely certain if it's all right if you sit in that
chair in front of him.

Well, it doesn't take any magic process or any series of
numbers written down to arrive at that one. Is it okay with
him if you sit in that chair? Is it okay with him if he
sits in that chair? Well, we've got it reduced down to its
weirdest fundamentals. Is it okay if you talk? Is it okay
if he answers? This is all we're trying to establish. Is
anything horrible going to happen because he's sitting in
that chair? Good. We can just go on and work and work and
work with this.

Now, we can take up the specific relationship of the
auditor-pc, one with another, and we can get that thing
balanced out. Now, that's your third in-sessionness stage,
you see? You're still getting this fellow into session.

Now, don't take it that I'm angry with you because I am not
even vaguely. I want to - very, very badly, I want to put
it across to you. I want to level straight across the boards
with you. I want you to get off of this kick of "What
little wound-up doll process do I run to make these things
come true?" You're trying to make me do it; and you've got
to do it. And it isn't some glorious new process that
you're going to tailor up in order to get it done.

Every once in a while, I catch an auditor on staff - the case
is getting worse, or something, and the case is not doing
well and he's trying to think in terms of, "What total
effect can I dream up?" And the other day, some little kid
that's just getting along just dandy on staff as a pc - a
couple of auditors blew up on the subject. They just blew
up. They got to discussing this. They got to discussing it
and discussing it and discussing it and they got more and
more convinced that it was some new technique or some new
process. Some new technique, some new process was needed, I
guess because they weren't smashing him into the chair with
a totality.

I went over it with them and I said, "What's the matter?
You've given me a recommendation here first, that you run
engrams, next that you run Help in brackets, next that you
do this, next that you do that." I said, "Have you gone
nuts? Is there anything you're doing that works?" "Oh, yes,
well, it's - yes, it's, a little bit, you know?"

"What's a little bit?" CCH 2, 8-C bites.

"You know, well, he has long comm lags and sometimes he has
to think it over and once in a while he holds his head."
And I said, "Is this flat? Is this flat?"

"Well, no."

Well, I said, "Well, why not flatten it, and then come back
and ask me all about these fancy processes that are going
to do so much for this guy." Good, old-time 8-C and he's
back running it now and now doing handsomely, thank you,
after four days of being monkeyed with, with a bunch of
goofball nuttiness that had nothing to do with it. The guy
could be put into session with 8-C and with good 8-C and
good formal auditing, and patching that up, he was getting
closer into session. He was getting more and more
confidence in his auditor and they were using 8-C to get
him in-session and looking at 8-C all by itself to do the
entire job. I don't care what they were doing with the guy.
They were getting him into session. Don't you see this? It
didn't have anything to do with the process. They did have
a process that he was improving on and that he was in good
ARC with the auditor with.

And instead of concentrating on making that ARC better,
instead of concentrating on this, they wanted to go off
into a whole series of gimmicks that sounded just like
space opera to me. "We can't rule the planet with a- with
a thought control emanator. Let's get in there now with a
super-hypnotic powder and kill everybody and then we'll
show them." They're saying, "We can't audit so what do we
use to audit with?" Vicious statement at best, isn't it?
It's got to be all right with the pc for you to audit him.
It's got to be all right for that pc to be in-session. And
then it'll be all right for the pc to look at his bank. And
then you better know the things that he's supposed to look
for in the bank, because he'll just look at bank, bank,
bank, bank, bank, bank, bank, bank, bank.

So you keep putting him better into session, making
yourself better off with him as an auditor and guiding him
more strongly and securely over onto what you want him to
look at in the bank. And when he looks at it well enough,
he will confront it absolutely direct.

Now, if it took you 150 hours to accomplish this, you would
have done no more than to have made it all right for you to
audit him, all right for him to be in-session, and directed
his attention over onto what he should look for on the
track, which is the basic Rock on the case. When he's got
that, it'll tear up - if you've got these other ingredients,
it'll tear up lock chains. Why, atom bombs don't even
vaguely have this much power and force.

So you have to know your TRs perfectly so you don't flub
and keep distracting him. And then you have to know how to
be relaxed and expert and facile in handling him. And then
you have to be interested in him, otherwise he never adds
your attention units to his lookingness in the bank. Tsk,
tsk, tsk. Ever think of that? And then he has to be
sufficiently relaxed so his attention units aren't out on
the society, or on you on the basis of ARC breaks. And he
has to be sufficiently relaxed about what is going on and
what is coming off in the session for him actually to look
with all of his attention, not just some of it. And do you
realize that he would exteriorize at that point? He would
exteriorize if you asked him to. Why? Because his attention
isn't on anything else. And what is a total exteriorization
but a total selectivity of attention.

So he'd, of course, exteriorize from nine-tenths of his
bank just by going into session. Most of his bank has to do
with safeguarding himself automatically in the environment.

It is so simple that man has looked at it for billions and
trillions of years and never seen any part of it. He said,
"What god can I bow down to in order to make my wife
fertile? What chieftain can I pay off in order to raise my
harvest? What can I propitiate amongst the aerial demons
and devils? How many witches can I hire? How many bank
statements can I write down as magic incantations to
somehow or other get me by and through? How much prestige
is necessary in the Mayo Clinic in order - if I say I've gone
to the Mayo Clinic - in order for me to be impressed with the
fact that I am now well? How many hundred thousand dollars
do I have to spend on my crippled child before my guilty
conscience is assuaged?" He just drifted and drifted and
drifted and drifted and he's never looked at anything; he
always looked at something else. And the motto of all of
his days is, "He looked at something else." It was raining,
so he looked at something else. A war was coming, so he
looked at something else. And all it took was one good look
by one man, anyplace, anywhere, at any given moment, for
any miracle that has ever occurred to occur again.

But if one man all by himself and alone did this in this
particular society at this time, everybody else would go
into a total overwhump and say, "All right, one man, you do
all the looking for us, and we're all slaves." That's the
way it goes.

How do you get a fellow in-session, huh? Well, I can even
give you processes that will do it. How do you like that?
"Greater love hath no man." You will get with the preclear
you're auditing right this minute some of the most
startling responses if you use a question that Jan codified
yesterday looking over this fact and what we're trying to
do, "Who should I be to audit you?" Startle half of your
preclears out of their wits. "Who should I be in order to
audit you?" Hm? "Who would I have to be in order to get
some auditing done? Who would I have to be to have you
confident of my ability?" And some of them will say, "My
grandfather." And some of them will say, "God." And some of
them will say, "This." And some of them will say, "Well,
you'd have to be a little boy." How the devil we ever get
into that, we don't know. And "You'd have to be a magic
snuffbox." And "You'd have to be Ron." "You'd have to be
Dick," or some other better-known auditor.

Now, that's an interesting thing, but you know, the guy
never goes into session if he never has an auditor? And if
you should be somebody else, it's absolutely necessary that
you're somebody else in order to audit him, then you never
audit him, do you? And then you Q-and-A with him and try to
be somebody else in order to audit him. Ha! That's a nice
trap for you to fall into, isn't it? Hm? That's right.

The session only begins, or begins only, when you, as you,
can audit him. Now we can't say "as him" because he's not
in-session yet. Even though you've said, "Start of
session," don't kid yourself. "Start of session is a bunch
of syllables. They're vibrations in the air. They merely
give him warning through his remote warning system of how
to clam up and brace up so that you don't get anywhere.

Oh, you start a session, you certainly better clear the
auditor. And only when you've got an auditor good and
clear, then you can go on and get some auditing done. Half
the pcs here are halfway inclined to believe that their
auditor leaves something to be desired and that they
would - they can hear the commands of the fellow two chairs
down and they sound very confident, and they say, "Wouldn't
it be much better if I had him as an auditor," you know?
"He sounds so overwhelming and I'm so overwhelmable." Well,
I'll clue you, if anybody, while being a pc, has heard any
other command in the whole room than his auditor's, he's
out of session but royally. Pcs of mine don't hear what's
going on in the next room, let me tell you. They just don't
hear it, that's all. But they do up to the point where
they're in-session.

I was Q-and-Aing around with a pc last night. I was, by the
way, auditing till 3:30 this morning. Auditor's Code should
always be obeyed; I always learn it when I audit after
midnight. I can get away with it up to midnight sometimes,
but when I get somebody that's tired or sick, as I had last
night, boy, they get more fancy code breaks. I got about
twenty minutes of auditing done in about two hours. The
rest of it was patching up exterior noises, code breaks,
this, that, the other thing and getting the person into
session. I got in five minutes of auditing at the beginning
of session, and then the pc's - wasn't really nicely
in-session because it was kind of an assist, you know? I
fell for it and didn't put him well into session. And then
I spent the next couple of hours, you know, just trying
to - trying to keep this thing patched up so I could settle
it. Finally, about 3:10, I had the pc totally, nicely,
beautifully, wonderfully in-session. All ARC breaks with me
on any time or place or anything else all patched up,
everything arranged, adjusted and squared around. Audited
him for fifteen minutes and took away his strep throat.
See? Five minutes at the beginning, fifteen minutes at the
end, that was the actual auditing that got done. The rest
of it was getting up to getting some auditing done. Got
that? Boy, is auditing effective if they're really
in-session. And boy, is it ineffective if they're not. Now,
what's a PT problem but that activity going on in the
physical universe at this moment which permits a preclear's
attention to be exterior to the session and exterior to the
auditor and therefore not upon the problem of auditing.

If you don't think this is serious, watch profiles before
and after twenty-five hours of expert, excellent,
professional auditing on a pc who, all that time, had a PT
problem that wasn't touched, and that he never told the
auditor about and that remained masked and buried. You get
no change of profile, no change of IQ, no vanishment of
psychosomatics or anything else.

Now that tells you how important that in-sessionness is:
pretty important, if it can keep every process run from
working. So therefore it must be senior to every process
run. Just by flat, factual testing, getting them in-session
must be senior to any process run because it can keep any
process from working. Digest it, please! Don't monkey with
a pc out-of-sessionness; solve it, not the case and then
solve the case, because the case is not available to you
until he's in-session. When he's in-session, he doesn't
hear the automobiles going by. He isn't worried about his
present lifetime. He's just as willing to be totally
revivified 800,000 years ago and lost in a jungle with
dinosaurs eating him up. He knows the auditor's there. Get
the idea? A case runs like hot butter if they're
in-session. There's just nothing to it. And there are
auditors here, right this minute, that have never seen a
case in-session. Never have seen a case in-session, and
just going bzzzz. And they say, "Well, preclears are tough,
they're hard to audit; they're tough." No. No. No. No. No.
It is tough to audit a pc who isn't in-session. You got
that? And there are auditors here, because there are some
old-timers here, who have seen pcs really in-session and
have seen a case run like a rocket shot by anybody else
than the US Army, US Air Force and US Navy. Get the idea?
And do you know that the ease of running of a case is not
the relative difficulties among cases. The ease of running
of the case is relative to the degree of in-sessionness on
the part of the pc. So a tough case looks like a tough case
to the degree it is not in-session. And the trickery and
the smoothness on the part of the auditor that is demanded,
is demanded to put the pc into session. So, it's difficulty
to get into session that measures the toughness of case.
And that is all there is to it.

Given total in-sessionness - that's not a hypnotic trance
or anything like that; the person's more awake than he's
ever been before in his life. And he's actually up with more
trust than he's ever had before in his life. Given total
in-sessionness, all cases are totally simple. They're just
complicated to the degree that they're out of session.

Now when we're saying, "out of session" we mean to the
degree that they are bothered by the environment, bothered
by the auditor, bothered by this and bothered by that and
bothered by something else. Actually, constant harping on
ARC breaks is only a symptom of being out of session. But
constant harping on ARC breaks ought to be enough. It's not
dependent upon the in-sessionness on the part of the
preclear but acceptance of the auditor.

ARC breaks come about when the auditor is not acceptable
totally to the preclear. And when you have a not totally
acceptable person doing the auditing, you get ARC breaks.
Well, you needn't feel bad about this because you have to
say, "What person is acceptable?" And you find out the only
person under the sun, moon or stars that could possibly
have audited him would be Mother and you happen to be a
man. Or it could be Father and you happen to be a woman.

No, don't think it's a criticism of your skill that he has
ARC breaks, so much so that I am less and less concerned
with getting pcs' ARC breaks. I audit on a straight, overt,
aggressive line, and eventually saws right on through and
then we get what's wrong and square it around. In other
words, I just tsh-tsh-tsh-tsh-tsh-tsh boom, you know? And
the pc is fend off, fend off, fend off, fend off, fend off.
"After all, you are not Krishnamurti swami, someone, and
therefore you can't audit me," you know? "And after all,
you audit much too well, you're too smooth and you're going
to get all of my secrets. And you're going to find out all
about that sort of thing that I did there back... - and so
forth," and therefore it's as much a liability to be known
as an expert.

There's guys around that will only let putty-fingered
stumblebums that have never been near school audit them, do
you know that? And if they find some girl that can learn a
couple of terms or some young boy that doesn't have a very
hard voice and they say, "Well, you're my auditor, go
ahead." Oh, ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho! Boy, that's
out-of-sessionness but gloriously, isn't it? Now, these two
facts, combined with the fact that there is something wrong
with the case - there is something definite and specifically
wrong with the ease. And some of you right now have a very
far cry from a good understanding of this. I hear you go
sailing in like this: "Well, we're going to clear this
now," and so on. We just clear the command word by word,
the English definition for this, the English definition for
that, and even throw in, "What is your opinion of help?"
and "What is your opinion of a people pleaser?" or
something like that. And "Here's the first command, 'How
could a people pleaser help itself?'" Oh, no! What are you
doing? Where the hell did you get the idea that you could
run with an unspecified terminal? You've got to prepare a
case with constant scouting of two, three, four, five
hours' duration to find exactly what people pleaser, where,
is wrong with him. And then you can run what is a people
pleaser, by, "How could you help a people pleaser?" and
"How could it help itself?" and so forth. He's got to have
one! Now where did you get the idea that you could do
anything else? What do you do - going to run this case on
such a high generality that not even you want to understand
it? That takes a scout. And I've been weeks now teaching
you how to scout. Did you think it all went out the window
because I gave you a magic button? Not for one minute. Look
for that stuck needle. Take it right on down the track.
Find out exactly where it winds up and then find the people
pleaser connected with it. Or, by defining people pleaser,
and finding out what pleases people, just by a straightwire,
two-way comm, blow stuff, blow stuff, blow stuff until you
get that damned Rock undug. And you'll find out it was the
first magnificent thing that on a via pleased everybody and
then gloriously flopped.

And when you've got that item and it is identified and he
knows where it is and he knows what it is and he knows how
it is, now run Help on it. Otherwise, go ahead and waste
your time because you'll be 8,000 hours to Clear.

You're auditing something. You're not auditing an idea.
Where did you get the idea that you could audit this vague
idea? That Rock is an isness. It has mass. It has a
position in time which then became all time everywhere. It
has an anatomy, it has engram and lock chains connected
with it. It has a specific identity and the best name for
it is a people pleaser, whenever and wherever it is found.
But you sure as hell better get that thing spotted and
identified before you start wasting and ruining a perfectly
fine process like the Rock bracket.

Oh, I know, your HCO Bulletin wasn't specific. It said,
however, "What is a people pleaser?" It did say that,
didn't it?

Audience: Yes.

And then it gave you brackets, and it said you could just
run brackets; it'd still find it. It said, "Find it." It
didn't say, "Avoid it." And the best way I know to find it
is just get right in there and chug-chug-chug-chug-chug-chug,
bang! Rock! You get the idea? I don't care if you have to go
in there with blow torches! Find it. Isolate it. Circumscribe
it. He knows absolutely and exactly that that is the Rock and
there's no further question in his mind but what this is
everything everywhere and everything that would ever be wrong
with him or ever has been wrong with him. He's got that
totally nailed. He's fifteen minutes to Clear. And if you
don't get him to that point, he's fifteen thousand years to
Clear.

Hear me. It's the last time I will mention it to you in
public.

The definition of a process is: a way of avoiding looking.
But that doesn't mean that everything you run isn't a
process, and that the best way to reach things is by a
process. But as long as you don't realize that a process is
simply a tool that opens up tin cans for you, you're never
going to see any tin cans, and you're going to say, "What
are we doing? Isn't it nice we have this process because we
never have to look at anything." It's just another via.

The process is a tool, not a via for lookingness. Oh, I
shouldn't run down its value to that extent because I'll
make you come off repetitive questions and I'm not asking
you to do that. Anything you run on somebody, you ought to
run as a repetitive question of one kind or another. I
don't care if you rephrase it eight different ways and call
it straight-way comm - you know, two-way comm, or
Straightwire, or something of this sort. You're still
running, to some degree, a repetitive question.

When you go in there and start asking about the Rock
itself, you had better - and when you are starting to run
it out and - you had certainly better use it as a repetitive
question, and it had better be perfectly worded. But you
use a process when you've got something to go after, or you
use a diagnostic process when you're trying to find
something. You don't use a process to clear people. You get
the horrible difference here? You could sit and drift in
limbo for the rest of time and you'll never get anything
done with cases. Now, it doesn't say you haven't gotten
things done with cases, but you've got enough done with
cases so you now might get something done with cases. You
got it? You've gotten enough done with cases so you might
get something done with cases. Now that's what's important.

And you're going to have yourselves a ball. Boy, when you
can tell me exactly the size, shape and general description
of your pc's Rock and what it pleased and how it pleased
and so forth, and what the lock chains are that branch off
from the thing, and where it's going, boy, he's so close to
Clear, don't let him sneeze because he'll sneeze himself
Clear. You get the idea? When he's got this thing real well
taped - well, the odd part of it is, a process has very often
taped it for him, but then the auditor never asked for it.
He never asked the dope on it. Why couldn't he ask the dope
on it? Well, he was running a process and of course you
can't stop a process and ask anybody anything. Processes
are just sort of a machine that winds up and just runs
forever, you know. No, you have to ask.

You have to find out what he's doing and how he's doing it,
and what it is and where it is and what it's doing. And you
have to ask him expertly enough so that you're not slowing
up the whole case and avoiding the case simply by asking.
You see, there's a nice adjustment point. You can yak, yak,
yak, yak, yak as you go down along the line and as-is his
havingness and chew it all up and not find out anything
either. You see, you can do too much of that sort of thing,
but you also can do just exactly the right amount.

And that right amount, by the way, is very well dictated by
your interest. If you only do what interests you to find
out what this thing is, if you only do what interests you
to put him into session, and so forth, and do the other
proper thing, you generally do the right thing, within the
framework of the TRs, because they're just ways of - the
TRs reversed are methods of nonconfrontingness used by
humans.

When you start disobeying the TRs, you are using methods of
nonconfrontingness, see? So the TRs teach you, if anything,
teach you you can confront anything. You get the idea? But
they too are tools and for use, but there's the way to go
about it.

And, you know, when I see somebody slumped in an auditing
chair, auditing and all caved in and twisted up and so
forth, I know what he's having trouble doing. He's having
trouble confronting. He's not having trouble with TR 0,
even though you point to him and say, "TR 0." What you mean
is he is not confronting. There's something he is avoiding.
So let's chew it in there and let's get him braced up, not
to make him sit better but to make him confront the thing
he's not confronting. You got the idea? Well, let's come
off of the little rote patterns of training and get on to
some good sense, without taking it as a liberty of doing no
auditing. See, that is the horrible, the horrible thing
that you face, you get the idea, that at any moment, why,
you're tired so you do no auditing by going off into the
limbo and not following something down. I catch myself
doing it every once in a while to some dim degree, and I
say, "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh. Tsk, tsk,
tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. Back in the groove, Ronnie. Now, where
did this pc start boring me to death? Oh." And once in a
while, I'll go for two, three minutes - this sometimes drives
a preclear nuts - two or three minutes without asking him a
single question. I just look at the meter and look at the
pc and size the thing up, try to get the orientation of the
situation, get it squared around so that I understand it.
The pc's saying, "What's the matter, what's the matter,
what's the matter, what's the matter?" "Shut up."

The pc is sitting back there - he's sulking now. And you
say, "Now, now, what's the matter with you?" "Well, you
told me to shut up."

"I know I did. Now, let's see, the next auditing command..."
That blows the ARC break usually. "I know I did. I was
trying to figure your case out and see where we were
going." "Oh!" Big understanding blows this thing. New light
dawns. "You have to look over my case, too," you know?
"What do you know?" Now, a process that leads in toward
getting him to accept you as the auditor, something on the
basis of: find the biggest ARC he has had with somebody on
the backtrack as an auditor and just blow it to glory.
It'll blow all the locks off the top of it. We use this
pattern today to such a degree, and it is so good, that
it'll blow an ARC break, it'll blow a psychosomatic right
out the window. Find the pleasedness that precedes the
illness.

He's having trouble with his wife; find all the times he
was happy with her, and poom! Got it? He's having trouble
with his throat; find all the times and things and good
throats. Just find some good throats, and zing, all of a
sudden the bad throats go. We know the mechanism now, we
know it exactly, we can use it.

He doesn't like you as an auditor; he doesn't like you as a
practitioner, then some minister or god or priest or devil
or somebody was so much a practitioner that ever since,
why, everybody who did anything to him had to be this god
or devil or priest, don't you see? So find out what was so
wonderful about this god or devil or priest, not
sarcastically, but just run it out. Just get it, get more
of it and all of a sudden he blows through and he says,
"Well, you're okay as an auditor." Now, you can do
something else with this whole thing. You can find out what
it's all right - what part of you it's all right for him to
confront, and what part of you it's all right for him to
have, and find out what it's all right for him to be doing,
and what it's all right for you to ask. And just take up
the various points that you'll have to be going through,
you know, and look these things up. Not a bunch of stupid
vias on the line, you know, I mean just right direct.

You're asking him, "What the hell is wrong with me auditing
you?" You know? I don't care how you phrase it, this is
what you ask him. You don't say, "Well, I think I'm
perfectly all right as your auditor, and therefore I am now
auditing you and the hell with what you think about it."
See, that probably wouldn't win. But it's better than
neglecting the point entirely. You got it? All right, now
the next thing that you want to have happen is this pc to
get into session. How do you get him into session? Well, it
is more you, but it's mostly help. A general Help bracket
will assist him markedly. But I'll tell you a much better
one, and this patches up ARC breaks and so forth, and it's
a process. You say, "How could you help me? How could I
help you?" And you ask him an odd number of times. That is
to say, you don't ask him one question, then one question.
You ask him two "How could I help you's" you know, because
he seems to be glib on that right now. And then he slows
down on it, so you don't ask him but a few of those, then
you flip it.

Every time he slows down, develops a comm lag, you shift
the bracket. You just shift the bracket. But it's a bracket
of two. "How could I help you? How could you help me?" "How
could I help you? How could you help me?" And you just run
it enough times until you've smoothed that out between you
and that. Boy, he'll have some of the weirdest ideas
of - concerning you, but that will flatten them. Now, that
also gets sessioning done and that gets him into session.
Get the idea? That gets him grooved down the line.

Now, if you want to put him further in-session, prove to
him absolutely and conclusively that you can do something
decent for him fast. But in order to do that, he's got to
have a proper definition or an understanding of five key
buttons and one additional button which is Pleased. Change,
Help, Problems, Create, Responsibility and Pleased. Boy,
has he got to have a good idea of those. And you know,
people can have the wildest idea of what "pleased" means,
or what a "pleased person" is that you ever heard of. Boy,
really wild! You wouldn't - you won't believe it till you
look at it.

You're trying to run a process on this individual, contains
the word "pleased." And "pleased" to him means a broken
leg, "pleased" means a broken leg, "pleased" means a broken
leg.

"How could that person be pleased with you?"

"Well, he could fall off a grating and break his leg." I
mean, it's totally non sequitur. "Well, he could be pleased
with me by being very sad with me. People believe that
people are pleased by being sad.

When they have a disarrangement on any one of these six
buttons including Pleased, you can realize their case is up
the spout just by misdefinition. You can straighten out
cases just by straightening out these definitions. Well,
there's a process you could use on that, "Invent a person;
tell me his ideas of being pleased." You know? "Invent a
person; tell me his ideas of change." Get this straightened
out.

Straighten him out. Straighten out your semantics. Don't
worry too much about whether or not this command is the
right incantation; does it mean anything? And don't be so
optimistic as to believe that "help" to him is - means help.

Now, some of you are running Help on people that don't know
what help is. And some of you are running Pleased on people
that don't know what pleased is. And you say, "a people
pleaser," well, supposing the person didn't know what
"people" were and didn't know what "pleased" was. Boy,
you'd be up the spout. Some of them have eight or nine vias
on "pleased," if you please - just don't have a clue what
"pleased" is. Not a clue. But they know what "pleased" is;
it's somebody with a broken leg. They just can't conceive
of anybody ever being pleased with anything, everyplace, at
any time. And yet you run a Pleased process on them.

Well, you've got to put your words and processes together.
But this again is getting them further into session. And
you keep grooving them further into session. And the
expertness of your auditing gets them into better and
better session.

And then you start for that Rock. Well, you've got to find
out what pleases people, and you'll have to lift bales of
locks off, and I don't care what process you use to lift
those locks off with. "And what have you used in this
lifetime to please people mightily?" (Ha-ha-ha-ha.) "What?"
And "Recall times of doing that. Recall times of doing
that." Boom! Off with this present lifetime.

"Is there any other thing that you believe this?" And we
get some generalized illusory thing, and we start running
that thing down, "Yes, that'd please people." "Tell me how
it would please people. What sort - what sort of an ashcan
would please people?" You found ashcans, you know? Bang!
You found ashcans sitting right there. Fixed! Just like I
taught you in the first week, see? And "What kind of an
ashcan would please people? Think of a person that would be
pleased with that ashcan." You got it? And you get that
thing straightened out. You can run right on down to the
Rock with no more valid a process than that. You can knock
out psychosomatics. You want to do something to him to
increase his confidence? Just use "Pleased"; people - "What
kind of a throat would people be pleased with?" Ten,
fifteen minutes later you got a psychosomatic out of the
way that he's had for years, and he says, "What! My
asthma's gone? Hm, you are pretty good, aren't you?" "Yeah,
I - I always like preclears to think that." Get the idea?

Get them in-session. To get them in-session, you have to
make them willing to have you as an auditor. Improve their
certainty that auditing can do something for them. Square
them around. Get them oriented on their words and
definitions. Find the Rock by spotting sticks.
