     ((This posting is confused from really bad terminology, in
particular confusions between postulate and considerations.

     Present day technology goes like this:

     GodSouls as creator create in the mere conception of things, we can
call this causal conception.

     Causal conception breaks into two kinds, postulates and
considerations.

     Postulates put things there, considerations relate posted things to
each other.

     Postulates are Scientolgy's Q1 in operation:

     Theta can create space and time, and locate (place not find!)
objects in them.

     Notice to locate here means to put there, not to find something by
looking for!

     Q1b: The favorite game of a thetan is to locate (place) an object
in a space and time, and then forget where he put it, thus spend the
rest of the game looking for it until he locates (finds) it.

     A GodSoul as creature (human) tries to locate his keys by looking
until he finds them.  They are always in the last place he looks because
he stops looking once he finds them.  Not knowing where something is, is
called LOST.

     A GodSoul as creator locates his keys where he wants them, and
there they are BECAUSE he put them there regardless of where they were
before he located them.  To locate in this sense means to put something
there in space and time exactly and only where you want it to be by mere
conception alone.  A GodSoul as creator has an impossible time losing
and then finding things, because they are always exactly anywhere he
conceives they are.

     These confusions between the various words are underlined a few
times through out the posting without rewriting the entire posting in
correct terminology.

     Simply exchange conception for consideration, and you will fix most
of the problems.

     Later in the posting it starts to discriminate properly between
postulates and considerations, but not consistently, so you will have to
understand the usage of the words from the context in which they are
used.))

      The CONSIDERATION / OBSERVATION FLIP FLOP

      A dicom is a DIchotomy of Comparable and Opposite Magnitude.

      Beauty and Ugly, Love and Hate, Good and Bad are common dicoms.

      The verb TO LOCATE is a dicom as we have shown above.

      To locate means to put it there causally.

     To locate also means to find where it was put.

     The verb TO DETERMINE is also a dicom to itself, it has two
different and completely opposite meanings.

     The first meaning of the verb TO DETERMINE is to be the cause of:
"To determine (cause) the course of history", "whether or not it rains
is determined (caused) by how much water there is in the air", etc.

     The second meaning of the verb TO DETERMINE is to be the effect of:
"To determine (find out by looking) what is going on and take
appropriate action." 
 
     Determination in this second sense is learning by looking, by being
an effect of pre existing causes, to determine (learn) what those causes
must be from the effects they have on you.

     The first meaning of TO DETERMINE is TO CAUSE TO BE TRUE.

     The second meaning of TO DETERMINE is TO LEARN WHAT IS TRUE.

     In the first sense determination is causation, being cause of what
is.

     In the second sense determination is observation, learning what is
true by being effect of existing causes.

      THE PROOF http://www.lightlink.com/theproof

     We know from the Proof that the ONLY way to learn about anything is
to be the effect of its cause.  If it has no causal effect on you, you
can never even know it exists.  Thus learning is always learning by
being an effect of the cause inherent in what you are learning about.

     Learning means "it is cause, and you are effect".

     Creation means "you are cause, and it is effect".

     The word 'because' is a joke, as it says BE CAUSE, but when
learning about cause through observation of effects, one is effect and
not cause.

     When one says "I know it is because I observe it is" one is not
being cause except to solicit impingements of effects in order to learn.

     When one says "I know it is because I consider it is", one is in
fact being cause.

      The flip flop from creating something by causitive consideration,
(determining it into existence), over to observation, (determining that
it is through its effects on one) is what Scientology calls Alter-Is,
and what Adore calls the Consideration Observation flip flop.

      CONSIDERATION AS CAUSE:

      The being is a God operating in the void constructing things there.
through direct causal conception.  
 
     You conceive it, you got it.

      At first all that exists is the being and the void.  Then the being
says 'Let there be Light' and there is light.  It BECOMES true that
'there is light' BECAUSE the being said so.  Before the being said there
was light, there was no light, it was false that 'There is light'.

      Creation is actually more direct than this, the light is
created in the mere conception of it, the creator doesn't even have
to say it exists or not.

     By saying 'Let there be light', by the mere act of conceiving that
there IS light, the being thus CREATES light and CREATES the truth that
'There is light'.

     After the being has created light by conceiving there is light, he
can then observe the light and verify that indeed light was created
exactly as he considered it.

     CONSIDERATION -> BEING CAUSE -> EXISTENCE -> BEING AN EFFECT ->
OBSERVATION -> VERIFICATION OF CONSIDERATION.

     Further more the being conceives AND observes that the statement
'There is light' is true BECAUSE he considers it true.

     He observes both his consideration that it is true, and the fact
that it is true, and the causation between his consideration that it is
true and the fact that it is true.

     He can see ALL THREE.

     CONSIDERATION -> CAUSATION -> FACT

     Adore calls this Looking by Knowing.  The being knows it is true
first, and thus it becomes true (as he is a God operating in the void)
and he can then look at it and observe that it is true just as he knew
it.

     This is determining what is true by being a cause and this is how a
God being operates in the void.

     Knowing -> Causation -> Existence -> Being and Effect ->
Observation -> Verification

     OBSERVATION AS EFFECT:

     Usually the human operating as a human, not as a God, considers
something is true because he observes it is true.  This is knowing by
looking.  This is determining what is true by being an effect, i.e.
learning, study.

      The being in this state goes out into the pre existing world,
already created by someone or something, and he lets it impinge on him.
 
     These impingements are his observations of what is out there
already existing.
 
     He does not consider that he created what is out there, in
fact he considers that what is out there was already out there, only he
didn't know it, but now he wants to find out about it through the
solicited impingements of observation.  
 
     This is Knowing by Looking and is the opposite of Looking by
Knowing as the God operates.

     Consideration and observation thus form a dicom.

     One creates by consideration, then one observes what one created to
verify that the consideration worked.

     ((Tecnically speaking one creates via conceiving, one puts
something there with a postulate conception, and one relates them to
each other with a consideration conception.  At the time this posting
was written this clarification had not yet been made.

     Thus in this posting 'consideration' means creating either through
postulates or considerations both of which come to be through mere
conception.))

     Consideration is an outflow, a creative putting it there in a
while.

     Observation is an inflow.

     Observation is solicited impingement.

     According to Adore, a postulate and a consideration are not the
same thing, but we often use them interchangeably.

     Strictly speaking a postulate is a posted beingness, it is creating
a color form and posting it to the void in order to observe it.

     A consideration is the postulation of relation between two or more
posted beingsness, in particular a causal relation.

     The being posts A, then posts B, then considers that A causes B.

     When one assigns cause between two different posted objects, we
call that casting cause.  True cause remains with the caster, but the
apparency is that cause is now out there beween the two objects and the
caster is an effect of their cause!

     The purpose of clearing is to clear postulates and considerations
from the being until he becomes the void again.  Probably long before he
reaches that point he will consider that he has had enough of clearing,
he is in fine shape, and wishes to become reengaged in the game of life
again.

     The game of life is the game of postulation and consideration, and
in particular engagement in the game of the consideration/observation
flip flop by which the being makes the games of life persist in
space/time.

     Causal consideration is an as-isness operating via being cause.

     The observation is an alter-isness operating via being an effect.

     Thus the observation and he observed object persist in time.

     Any space/time game stream is a persisting bubble in the void of
the Eternal.

     Something to go out and look at and learn about through observation.

     So get this.

     Conception creates something without persistence via knowingness.

     Observation learns about those same somethings that are now
persisting due to learning by looking.

     Learning is the postulate that something is there and I have to go
find out about it.  That causes the persistence, because of the prior
postulate that 'it is there and...'

     All persistence is the result of similar prior postulation of a
first postulate continuously assumed to be true by the second postulate
that one now has to go out and find out about the first postulate via
looking.

     THE GOD POSTULATE

     For the purposes of clearing, a god postulate is a postulate that a
being considers is true because he has observed it to be true, when in
fact it is true only because he considers it is true.

     Postulate and considerations are causitive, they CREATE in the
moment of postulation or consideration what is postulated or considered.

     ((Unless otherwise stated, 'consideration' here means either
postulate or consideration, both of which are subsumed under
conceptions, as in 'A God creates in the mere conception of things.'))

      A consideration posts to the void what is being considered.

      A consideration can be withdrawn, deposted from the void, if the
being does NOT flip flop it into an observation by being the effect of
it to learn about it.  It is the seeking after KNOWLEDGE about the
created object that causes it to persist.

      The first postulate already knows what is postulaed because
the knowledge was creative and put the object there in the second place.

      The second postulate says the being doesn't know about it,
because he didn't create it, and thus has to interact with the
creation in order to find out about it by being an effect.

      Notice the sillyness of this.

      The being as CAUSE creates the object as an EFFECT of his cause.

     But then the being flips to thinking that the object is CAUSE and
can teach him about its nature by causing effects in HIM.

     So first postulate is being is cause, object is effect.

     Second posulateg is object is cause and being is effect.

     THUS THE ONLY THING THE BEING CAN LEARN ABOUT THE OBJECT BY BEING
AN EFFECT OF THE OBJECT IS HOW THE OBJECT AFFECTS HIM!

     So the primary knowledge that the being as cause put into the
object as effect through direct causation, is returned to the being as
secondary knowledge that the object as cause puts into the being as
effect through observational learning.

     The primary knowledge is the truth because it claims the being is
cause and the object is effect.

     The secondary knowledge is a lie because it claims that the object
is cause and the being is effect.

     Thus the object persists from the alter-isness of cause and
effect and the entire universe is this way.

     The universe was set up by an all knowing creator to be learned
about by the creator as creature.

     Thus all postulates and considerations that are posted to the void
are then observed.
 
     The being only runs into persistence of what was posted if he
denies that his consideration was cause of what he observed.

     Persistence is caused by flip flopping from

     Looking by Knowing to Knowing by Looking.

     A being first creates something by posting to the void, which then
becomes true by virtue of his having posted it.

     The being can then after the fact of creation consider that these
things were true before one created them, and that one merely observed
that they were true independent of one's own consideration of them.

     Thus one moves from causitive consideration into learning by
observation.

     Thus a God Postulate is a Consideration/Observation flip flop
in operation.

      The purpose of clearing is to spot the God postulates on the case,
and get the person to recreate the Consideration / Observation flip flop
on them, until he is able to operate the flip flop and eventually let go
of the postulate and consideration package at will.

      While there are trillions of postulates and considerations on a
case, there are only a few really serious God postulates that are
overwhelming the preclear.  Once a God postulate is formed, millions of
other postulates will form and encrust around the God postulate.  These
other postulates are secondary in nature, derive their power from the
God Postulate, and can not be changed by a simple act of recognition and
willingness.

      A true God postulate can be changed by merely unconceiving of it.

      Once a God postulate is found and released in session the secondary
encrusters will blow off over time by themselves en mass.

      The God postulates on a case are not trivial nor self evident,
therefore auditing is a serious and skilled activity, for the fate of
the being hangs in the balance, by his own choice of course.

      This does not mean that one needs help in such matters, although in
the beginning being audited by another who has reality on the above
matters can greatly facilitate case gain.

      There is nothing wrong with help, help is a good thing unless it
has been turned into harm and a bad thing.  Any preclear who doesn't
WANT help has a problem.

      But in the absence of available or quality help, then going it
alone is possible and necessary.  Don't ever let other's stupidity stop
you from putting them there in a while.  :)

      You can also help them to help you.

      But don't ever let anyone invalidate your ability to help yourself,
or their own inability to help anyone in the first place, but also you
are beholden to find and create help wherever you can.

      In truth, the main need for others is to provide to the clueless
newbie a bit of indoctrination and orientation about how it all works
and the underlying theory of it all.

      Once anyone is oriented towards total responsibility as the
solution to all things, he will start walking relentlessly in that
direction regardless of the 'help' offered to or enforced upon him.

      We are not talking about indoctrination through force, as the being
does not need force to believe this stuff.  This is in fact part of the
problem with this material, it resonsates so closely with what the being
wants to believe anyhow, that there is great danger that the being will
merely settle for belief in these matters rather than operational
certainty followed by concrete results in his own life and in the lives
of others.

      Belief is for losers.

      Certainty is for those who would operate as Gods in the void.

      But at the top, truth and desire are in accord, so look forward to
it.  Put your sojourn in the valley of death and lies there in a while,
and get on with it.

      God postulates are powerful.  How will you know when you have found
one?

      Well God postulates are powerful.  Frankly a being can't survive a
God postulate, so when you find that stone that is sinking your vessle,
take a moment to sit with it and just consider the possibliity that it
is a God postulate and that you don't have to be the effect of it.  If
that doesn't work, there is a bigger God postulate underlying it.

      It is not endless, you can do this, and once you find one or two,
you will find your Star Drive coming back on line again and real power
returning to you.
