STEP EIGHT Make Some Time

See Dianetics 55!, Chapter XV.

AN INTENSIVE IN BRIEF FOR PRACTICAL USE GOAL: Operating Thetan.

DEFINITION: An Operating Thetan is one who can be knowingly at cause over Life, Matter, Energy, Space and Time.

CCH 0 in brief, find the auditor, find pc, find auditing room, clear help and goals. BUT IN THE MAIN HANDLE THE PT PROBLEM IF IT EXISTS. IF IT DOESN'T EXIST do CCH 0 briefly and quickly and get on with the session.

It will be noted that giving pc's attention to auditing room or environment can turn on a somatic after three or four commands. After one command of "Have you got an auditing room?" this becomes a process called LOCATIONAL. If Locational turns on a somatic it must be run until somatic is flat. Therefore, the auditor has no business attempting Locational or getting the pc involved unless he intends to do something about it.

Present Time Problem

The preclear is put on an E-Meter before PT problem is discussed. When the E-Meter has been adjusted (one-third of a dial surge when pc squeezes cans), the auditor asks if the pc has a present time problem. After a little discussion of this, the needle may surge. If it does, the auditor locates the PT problem's most intimate terminal and runs (with the pc still holding the cans) "Invent something worse than (indicated terminal)" until the problem flattens out on the dial. The auditor can ask for and run another PT problem or even three or four, but always flattening down the surge of the needle. IF THE PC IS 50 percent below the center line of the APA, it is not safe to run "Invent." Instead, without scouting around "Invent," but knowing the graph in the first place, simply two-way comm the problem and run Locational until the problem flattens out on the needle. The auditor does not begin with "Invent" and then change his mind and run Locational. It is an "either-or." The auditor starts with "Invent" or he starts with Locational and whichever he does he does not change. IF LOCATIONAL TURNS ON A SOMATIC IT MUST BE RUN UNTIL LOCATIONAL NO LONGER TURNS ON SOMATICS.

Once the PT problem is flat the auditor puts away the E-Meter.

SCS Steps

SCS begins with 8-C of any kind. If 8-C turns on a somatic, the auditor runs it until it no longer turns on somatics. 8-C is run formal or Tone 40.

Start is then run as per 1956. Change is then run as per 1956. Stop is then run as per 1956.

If each of these is flattened in turn, it does not mean that SCS is flat. It means only that Start is probably unflattened. Thus one again runs Start after Stop, runs Change after Start, Stop after Change until none of the three unflatten the others.

More 8-C can be run. There is no error in liberally running 8-C, which is, after all, a more complicated Locational of a Short Spotting sort.

Spotting Steps

Spotting itself is a broad process. Locational is only one of many spotting processes. Spotting spots in the past, in space, in the present, Short Spotting (Locational done up close) are all effective.

SPOTTING DEPENDS FOR ITS WORKABILITY ON THE DISLIKE OF A THETAN OF BEING LOCATED. IT RUNS BEST, of course, WITH THE THETAN AT CAUSE DOING THE SPOTTING.

Connectedness is the basic process on ASSOCIATION of theta with mest. All forms and kinds of association, including being caught in traps, are prone to become identifications as in Dianetics. Connectedness puts the thetan at cause in making the mest (or people when run outside) connect with him. The command is "Get the idea of making (indicated object) connect with you." The auditor points. The worse off a person is, the less reality he has on far objects.

Havingness is a complicated Connectedness. Also a permissive one. Thus Trio is above Connectedness and may be used when Connectedness is flat.

L. Ron Hubbard's many works on the subjects of Dianetics and Scientology reflect a profound knowledge of man's nature—knowledge gained through lifelong experience with people from all walks of life and every part of society.

Ron's quest for knowledge on the nature of man began at a very early age, when he studied the Greek philosophers and other classics. He traveled across the United States and throughout the Pacific and Asia. By the time he was nine­teen he had covered more than a quarter of a million miles. And during the course of leading expeditions, on three of which he carried the flag of the Explorers Club, he studied twenty-one different races and cultures around the world.

In the fall of 1930, Ron enrolled at George Washington University where he studied mathematics, engineering and attended one of the first classes in nuclear physics taught in the United States. This background allowed him to apply a scientific methodology to questions of man's spiritual potential. After realizing that neither the philosophy of the East nor the materialism of the West held the answers, Ron was determined to fill the gap.

He financed his early research through fiction writing and soon became one of the most highly demanded authors in this golden age of popular fiction. His prolific output as a writer during the 30s and 40s was interrupted only by his service in the US Navy during World War II.

Partially disabled at war's end, Ron applied his discoveries about the human mind to restore his own health and that of other injured servicemen.

In late 1947, Ron detailed these discoveries in a manuscript which enjoyed a wide circulation amongst friends and colleagues who copied it and passed it on to others. (This manuscript was published in 1951 as Dianetics: The Original Thesis, and later republished as The Dynamics of Life.) As his original thesis continued to circulate, Ron found himself besieged with inquiries from interested readers; and with the first publication of his work on Dianetics in the Explorers Club Journal in late 1949, the flood of letters was so great that it placed enormous demands on his time. It was in response to these requests for more information about his discoveries that he wrote a comprehensive text on the subject.

Published on May 9, 1950, Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health made his breakthrough technology broadly available for the first time. Dianetics shot to the top of the New York Times bestseller list and remained there week after week. By the end of four months, 750 Dianetics study groups had sprung up, prompting such headlines as: "Dianetics Takes US by Storm."

RESTORATION OF KNOWING CAUSE: CLEAR TO OT TRANSCRIPTS

Responding to this groundswell of enthusiasm, Ron delivered lectures to packed halls across the country. Before the year's end, tens of thousands had not only read his book, but were readily applying it to better their lives. Meanwhile, he continued his research, and further breakthroughs followed. In 1951, he wrote and published six more books, including Science of Survival, the authoritative work on the subject of human behavior.

In the autumn of that year, and in spite of growing demands on his time, he intensified research into the true source of life energy. This research led him to identify the very nature of life itself, and formed the basis of the applied philosophy of Scientology—the study of the spirit in relationship to itself, universes and other life. This track of research, begun so many years earlier as a young man traveling the globe in search of answers to life itself, was to span the next three decades.

Through the 1950s, Ron continued to advance Scientology techniques with the development of hundreds of new processes, delving deeper into the true nature of man. And as more and more people discovered Ron's break­throughs, Scientology churches around the world opened to provide services to them. Ron visited many of these churches, giving lectures and guidance to the church members to help them expand Scientology in their areas.

In 1959, Ron purchased a home in England, Saint Hill Manor, where he lectured to hundreds of Scientology students who came from as far away as the United States, Australia and South Africa. A new era for Scientology began with the opening of the Saint Hill Special Briefing Course in March of 1961 to train expert auditors. Between 1961 and 1966, Ron not only person­ally supervised these students, but also delivered more than 430 lectures and auditing demonstrations while continuing his research and overseeing the expanding affairs of Scientology internationally.

He released the Scientology Classification, Gradation and Awareness Chart at Saint Hill in 1965, laying out the standard step-by-step route for preclears and auditors. Additionally, because of Scientology's rapid expansion, Ron developed administrative policies for Scientology organizations which have proven to be universal in their application.

On the threshold of breakthroughs never before envisaged, Ron resigned from all directorships in Scientology organizations in 1966 to devote himself more fully to research.

The following years saw the discovery and codification of the technology which allows anyone to move through the levels of Operating Thetan, the highest states of spiritual awareness and ability.

Ron continued to seek out methods to help his fellows. As he encountered ever-worsening conditions in society, he developed procedures to address and resolve a wide range of man's problems. He even refined the techniques of Dianetics in 1978 to bring about faster and easier-to-attain results —New Era Dianetics.

No area of life was left untouched in this search for ways to improve the human condition. His work provided solutions to such social ills as declining educational standards, moral decay and drug use. He codified the administration of organizations, the principles of ethics, the subjects of art and logic and much more. And yet he never lost sight of the man on the street and his day-to-day problems of living in these complex and troubled times. Thus in Scientology one finds solutions to any difficulty one can encounter in life.

This series of lectures represents but a small part of the more than forty

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

To assist in your understanding of these lectures, hard-to-find terms and other words which you may not be familiar with are included in this glossary. An example of usage from the lectures is included at the end of each definition. These definitions give only the meanings of the words as they are used in the lectures; this glossary is not meant as a substitute for a dictionary.

Ability: the magazine, since 1955, of the Founding Church of Scientology of Washington, DC. Many new technical articles by L. Ron Hubbard were written for and first published in Ability magazine during the 1950s and 1960s. Now, the way it's being prevented and the way it can be prevented very easily—since you will make the bulk of the Clears that are made here across the world—the way it can be prevented very easily is for every issue or two of Ability and every few PABs to carry a notation to this effect: "If he says he's Clear, ask him for his bracelet." —Responsibility for Mock-Ups (14 Feb. 58)

Academy: the part of a Scientology organization in which auditor training courses are delivered. And by the way, much to the chagrin of the HGC, the same preclear who caused so much trouble in the HGC is today Clear in the Academy—or nearly so. —Help—How to Get Started (7 Feb. 58)

ACC: abbreviation for Advanced Clinical Course, one of a number of theory and research courses delivered by L. Ron Hubbard during the years 1953 to 1961 which gave a deep insight into the phenomena of the mind and the rationale of research and investigation. If you audit somebody for five weeks and he's not Clear, why, you'd better come back and take another ACC. —Help—How to Get Started (7 Feb. 58)

ach: (German) oh. He would just flinch, flinch, flinch, flinch. And he'd get all sorts of bank disturbances and so forth, and finally say, "Well, ach—take responsibility for ach. But that's all!" —Responsibility for Mock-Ups (14 Feb. 58)

acknowledgment: something said or done to inform another that his statement or action has been noted, understood and received. "Very good," "Okay," and other such phrases are intended to inform another who has spoken or acted that his statement or action has been accepted. An acknowledgment also tends to confirm that the statement has been made or the action has been done and so brings about a condition not only of communication but of reality between two or more people. Applause at a theater is an acknowledgment of the actor or act plus approval. Acknowledgment itself does not necessarily imply an approval or disapproval or any other thing beyond the knowledge that an action or a statement has been observed and is received. Now, your basic training is in the direction of handling people and handling acknowledgments. —Help—How to Get Started (7 Feb. 58)

AD: abbreviation for After Dianetics (1950, the year of publication of Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health). Example: 1965 = AD 15. February 7, 1958—AD 8. —Help—How to Get Started (7 Feb. 58)

Afghan Psychiatric Association: humorous reference to the American Psychiatric Association, an organization formed in the United States in 1844, as the Association of Medical Superintendents of American Institutions for the Insane, by thirteen superintendents of mental hospitals. It later changed its name to American Psychiatric Association. It promotes the use of psychiatry, and seeks to protect and forward the vested interests of psychiatrists. When Bum Business Bureaus, the I Will Arise Political Society, when the Afghan Psychiatric Association and — these organizations come around and start cuffing an activity such as has been conducted here for eight years, you're looking at a sick society. —Other Processes, the Help Button (13 Feb. 58)

Aldershot: a city in Hampshire, England, southwest of London, that has a large military training center. Male voice: They've agreed to get this started, in Aldershot, with Colonel White. —The Key Processes of Clearing: Question and Answer Period (11 Feb. 58)

alter-isness: the consideration which introduces change, and therefore time and persistence, into an as-isness (the condition of immediate creation without persistence; the condition of existence which exists at the moment of creation and the moment of destruction, and is different from other considerations in that it does not contain survival) to obtain persistency. It is the effort to preserve something by altering its characteristics. It is not destroy-create, because create is not a not-isness and it's not an alter-isness, is it? —Help—How to Get Started (7 Feb. 58)

AMA: abbreviation for American Medical Association, a professional physicians' organization, established in 1847, with the stated purpose of promoting public health, protecting the welfare of doctors and supporting medical science. As a matter of fact, you read the Bum Business Bureau publications, the AMA publications, so forth; you'll find out that it's a criminal offense to pretend to cure some things. —Other Processes, the Help Button (13 Feb. 58)

anaten: an abbreviation of analytical attenuation, a diminution (lessening) or weakening of the analytical awareness of an individual for a brief or extensive period of time. If sufficiently great, it can result in unconsciousness. Now you're talking about anaten preclears, and that sort of thing. —The Key Processes of Clearing: Question and Answer Period (11 Feb. 58)

APA: abbreviation for American Personality Analysis, a test that measures ten personality traits. The result is shown by plotting each of the scores on a graph called a "profile" which shows desirable and undesirable characteristics in a case. Traits which are on the minus side of the graph are considered contrasurvival; on the plus side they are considered to be survival. The points on the graph are moved up by Dianetics and Scientology processing. Well, occasionally this happened. So that you'd read—you'd turn to an APA graph, and if that hadn't changed, you'd turn it over and look at the intelligence—the IQ. —Help—How to Get Started (7 Feb. 58)

appetite over tin cup: (slang) a pioneer Western US term used by riverboat men on the Missouri; it means "thrown away violently," like "head over heels," "bowled over." The person has just had hell raised with every quarter of his life in the last few years; he's just appetite over tin cup one way or the other; got so many present time problems at the moment that he couldn't possibly sit still even if he were outside somewhere. —Help—How to Get Started (7 Feb. 58)

ARC break: a sudden drop or cutting of affinity, reality or communication with someone or something. Upsets with people or things (ARC breaks) come about because of a lessening or sundering (breaking apart) of affinity, reality or communication or understanding. It is called an ARC break instead of an upset, because if one discovers which of the three points of understanding have been cut, one can bring about a rapid recovery in the person's state of mind.

GLOSSARY

People who had mock-ups and could do them well, when subjected to a long series of severe Auditor Code breaks, then developed a field. So we could say that, then, a person in a fair state of being able to do it, subjected to a long series of ARC breaks in life, would wind up with a field. —Help—How to Get Started (7 Feb. 58)

ARC Straightwire: a type of auditing in which the auditor has a person recall moments when he actually felt he was receiving or giving affinity (A) or communication (C) or actually experiencing reality (R). It is called Straightwire because the auditor directs the person's memory and in doing so is stringing wire, much on the order of a telephone line, between the person and the standard memory bank in the person's mind. The earliest method of getting a person used to handling somebody else's mind was done with Self Analysis— the old ARC Straightwire in the back of it. —Other Processes, the Help Button (13 Feb. 58)
