        THE TWO PARTS OF AUDITING



      (From the LRH tape 2 July 64,

      "O/W Modernized and Reviewed")





In order to do something for somebody, you have to have a 

communication line to that person.



Communication lines depend upon reality and communication and 

affinity. And where an individual is too demanding, the affinity 

tends to break down slightly.



Processing goes in two stages.



1. To get into communication with that which you are trying to 

process.



2. Do something for him.



There is many a pc who will go around raving about his auditor, 

whose auditor has not done anything for the pc. All that has 

happened is that a tremendous communication line has been 

established with the pc. And this is so novel and so strange to 

the pc that he then considers that something miraculous has 

occurred.



Something miraculous has occurred, but in this particular 

instance the auditor has totally neglected why he formed that 

communication line in the first place. He formed it in the first 

place to do something for the pc.



He very often mistakes the fact that he has formed a communication 

line -- and the reaction on the pc for his having formed one --

with having done something for the pc.



There are two stages.



1. Form a communication line.



2. Do something for the pc.



Those are the two distinct stages. It is something like (1) 

walking up to the bus and (2) driving off. If you don't drive off 

you never go anyplace,



It is a very tricky and no small thing to be able to communicate 

to a human being who has never been communicated to before. This 

is quite remarkable, and is such a remarkable feat that it appears 

to be an end-all of Scientology to some.



But you see, that's just walking up to the bus. Now you have got 

to go someplace.



Any upset that the individual has is so poised, it is so 

delicately balanced, that it is difficult to maintain. It is not 

difficult to get well. It is very hard to remain batty. A fellow 

has to work at it.



If your communication line is very good and very smooth, and 

if your auditing discipline is perfect so you don't upset this 

communication line, and if you just made a foray of no more 

importance than saying something like, "What are you doing that's 

sensible and why is it sensible?" and kept your communication line 

up all the while and kept your affinity up with the pc all the 

while -- did it with perfect discipline -- you would see more 

aberration fall to pieces per square inch than you ever thought 

could exist.



Now, that's what I mean when I say do something for the pc.



You must audit well, get perfect discipline and get your 

communication cycle in. Don't ARC break the pc; let your cycles 

of action complete.



All of that is simply an entrance. You see, the discipline of 

Scientology makes it possible to do this. And one of the reasons 

why other fields of the mind never got anyplace and could never 

get near anybody was because they couldn't communicate to anybody.



So that discipline is important.



That is the ladder that goes up to the door. And if you can't get 

to the door, you can't do anything.



The perfect discipline of which we speak -- the perfect 

communication cycle, the perfect auditor presence, perfect meter 

reading, all of these things -- are just to get you in a state 

where you can do something for somebody.



So when you're real slow picking up the discipline, real slow 

picking up keeping in the communication cycle, when you're pokey 

on the subject, you are still nine miles from the ball. You're not 

even attending yet.



What you want to be able to do is audit perfectly. By that we 

mean keep in a communication cycle; be able to approach the pc, be 

able to talk to the pc; and be able to maintain the ARC; get the 

pc to give you answers to your questions; be able to read a 

meter and get the reactions.



All of those things have to be awfully good because it's very 

difficult to get a communication line in to somebody anyway. They 

all have to be present and they all have to be perfect. If they 

are all present and they are all perfect, then we can start to 

process somebody. THEN we can start to process somebody.



I'm giving you an entrance point here of, if all your cycles were 

perfect, if you were able to sit there and confront the pc, and 

meter that pc, and keep your auditing report and do all these 

multiple various things, and keep a pleasant smile on your face 

and not chop his communication, well then there is something you 

do with these things. It takes a process now.



We used to have it all backwards. We used to try and teach people 

what they could do for somebody. But they could never get in 

communication with him to do it, so therefore you had failures in 

processing.



The most elementary procedure would be "What do you think is 

sensible?" or anything of that sort. The pc says, "Well, I think 

horses sleep in beds. That's sensible." The auditor says, "All 

right. Now, why is that sensible?" The pc says, "Well ... ah ... 

Hey! ... That's not sensible. That's nuts!" You actually wouldn't 

have to do anything more than that. He's cognited. You've 

flattened it. It's so easy to do, but you keep looking for some 

magic.



Well, your magic is in getting into communication with the person. 

The rest is very easy to do, all you have to do is remain in 

communication with the person while you are doing this, and 

realize that these huge aberrations he's got are poised with the 

most fantastically delicate balance on little pinheads. All you 

have to do is to phooph and these things crash.



Now, if you're not in communication with this person, he doesn't 

cognite. He takes it as an accusative action. He tries to justify 

thinking that way. He tries to make himself look good to you and 

tries to put on a public front of some kind or another. He tries 

to hold up his status.



Anytime I see a bunch of pcs around who want to jump happily to 

something else -- "because sane people run on that and crazy

people run on something else, and they never have to be run on the

crazy one," -- I right away know their auditors are not in

communication with them and that auditing discipline itself has

broken down, because the pc is trying to justify himself and

trying to uphold his own status. So he must be defending himself

against the auditor.



The auditor couldn't possibly be in communication with him.



So, we are right back to the fundamental of, why didn't the 

auditor get into comm with the pc in the first place.



You get into communication with the pc in the first place by doing 

proper Scientology discipline. That is not any trick. It goes off 

one, two, three, four.



You sit down and you start the session and you start handling the 

pc and his problems and that sort of thing, and you do it by 

completing your communication cycles and not cutting his 

communication -- the very things you are taught in the TRs, and 

you find you are in communication with the person. Now you've 

got to do something for the person.



Unless, having gotten into communication, you do something for 

the person, you lose your communication line because the R-factor 

of why you're in communication with the pc breaks down. He doesn't 

think you're so good, and you go out of communication with him. 

That having happened, the person will be in a sort of status 

defensive and wonder why he is being processed.



On the other hand, if you have done something for the pc and he 

has had his cognition, and you try and go on and get more TA 

action out of the fact that "all horses sleep in beds," you don't 

get there as you've already flattened the process.



You can over audit and you can under audit.



If you don't notice that one answer come your way, that indicates

you have done something for the pc and if you keep him working on

that same thing, your TA action will disappear, your pc will get

resentful and you'll lose your communication line.



He's already had the cognition, you see. You are now

restimulating the pc. You have gotten your key-out destimulation 

factor -- it has occurred right before your eyes. You have done 

something for the pc. One more mention of the subject and you've 

had it.



There are a lot of things you could do with the pc, without 

doing anything for him. You can turn on some very, very handsome 

somatics on a pc at one time or another without turning them off 

either. You've got to do something for the pc, not to him.



Now, you can be doing something (A) and the pc is doing B, and you 

go on doing A while the pc is doing B. Then somewhere on down the 

line you wind up in a hell of a mess and you wonder what happened.



Well, the pc never did what you said so you didn't do anything 

for the pc. There was in actual fact no barrier to your 

willingness to do something for the pc but there must have been a 

tremendous barrier to your understanding of what was going on.



That you could ask A while the pc answered B in itself showed the 

auditor observation was very poor, so therefore the auditor 

wasn't in communication with the pc.



So again the communication factor was out and once more we weren't 

doing anything for the pc.



It requires of the auditor discipline to keep in his communication

line. He has got to stay in communication with his pc. Those

cycles have got to be perfect. He can't be distracting the pc's

attention onto the TA, e.g., "I'm not getting any TA action now."

That's not staying in communication with the pc, has nothing to do

with it. You're distracting the pc from his own zones and areas.



Don't put the pc's attention out of session. Keep him going and 

keep that communication line in. And the next requirement is to 

do something productive for the pc using the communication line.
