6012C31 AHMC-2 The Things of Scientology

     Scientology has succeeded in bringing the predictability of the natural
sciences into the humanities.  Practically every natural scientist before LRH
has attempted this, but none has succeeded before now.  "There are 20 separate
items in scientology and dianetics that are as solid as one of these test
tubes." This has nothing to do with ivory tower figure figure.  Scientology is
a practical subject that has nothing to do with anyone's beliefs.

     Policing of behavior is the rule today.  It is based on what no one knows
about.  People become slaves to their ignorance of right and wrong.  In such a
time, one needs a practical wisdom.  Whole countries have gone by the boards
because their wisdom wasn't practical.  For instance, India and China.  Their
"wisdom" always went with poverty and degradation.  People's woes,
difficulties, and failures stem from their ignorance, their darkness about the
mind.  They had no knowledge of the rules.  The world needs a practical
science, the parts of which are clearly visible.  Having this, one can see
into men's hearts, know them, and live.

     One of the twenty things is the brain.  It is a shock absorber which
prevents electronic currents from injuring the beingness of the person.  It
has less to do with controlling motor actions than commonly believed.  People
with brain damage have had function restored with dianetics.  Another of the
"things" is the human nervous system.  The nervous system also serves for
warning, control, and arrest of pain, or absorbtion of pain.  Another couple
of things are the human body and the physical universe.  Also, lock,
secondary, and engram.  Real things.

     Another thing is the overt-motivator sequence.  It is a very low-order
sequence.  This falls out when a person ceases to be reactive, because it is
based on and is a Q and A with Newton's law of interaction (Second Law of
Motion).  It is more serious than, "If you do something to Joe, he will do
something to you." It is used by people who are into a big Q and A with MEST.
It justifies stockpiling A-bombs, etc.  There's more to the overt-motivator
sequence than Newton's law.  If Joe hits Bill, he will believe he should be or
has been hit by Bill and gets a somatic to prove it.  So if someone does an
overt, he will get or believe he has already gotten the motivator.

     The scales and cycles of dianetics and scientology are things, not
figure-figure.  There's the cycle of action (create, survive, and destroy, in
its most crude form).  It is an apparency, but demonstrable.

     "The human mind is the bag of tricks the thetan invented to keep himself
from getting bored to death in this universe and has then considered too
complex to understand and has gotten himself into serious trouble with."
