SASHAY OF THE CHURCH In alt.clearing.technology husk wrote: > There's a lot in that post. I'll need to go through it a couple of > times. > > I take it anything after 1955 was pursuit of money. Too simple minded. The Churches descent was a massive and complex affair with many causal factors, greed and fear of non survival and outright paranoia and preemptive war bound polices among them. The need for money is obvious, you can't build a world wide church without it. However the real changes taking place was caused by what Scn would call a sashay down a GPM structure, starting at the beginning with the goal to free people, and ending at the bottom with the goal to enslave people. Probably about 16 to 20 distinct steps along the way. If you take a look at Hubbard's life, the money certainly didn't go to him, but the organization itself kind of had a desire for survival through power, control and of course wealth, be it money or whatever. They do want to control the world you know. As for the tech, in parallel with the decay of the ethics of the organization as a whole, Hubbard found that people just couldn't run pre 1952 stuff. So he had to go lower and lower down the bridge to bring processes to people who could barely talk to each other, and who had so many withholds as a normal course of life, their minds looked like a can of worms. The first people in Scn, 1952 say, were already out of body, or near out of body, called step 1's and 2's. A step 1 could be out just by considering it. A step 2 could PUSH himself out with mental force beams directed at his forehead, and pull beams directed at the walls of the room. He was lost in the illusion of force and mechanics and considered himself a newtonian entity like a marble. So Ron developed processes to stabilize them outside, mostly mockup processing, and also to take back from the body all the ability and personality they had assigned to it which was really theirs. Step 3's and 4's were lower tone and needed 'earlier' processing, which was actually developed later, but meant for lower tone cases that had to be run first, in order to get them to step 1. A step three was able to make mental space time, and was practiced on this until he exteriorized. A stop 4 could not make space but could barely hold a single point still. So he was practiced on this until he became a step 3, then ran spaction until a 2 and then considerations until a 1 etc. Hubbard was always most interested in OT's, people who were out of body or could get out easily, and developing their exterior abilities to really get them free of getting involved in body games again which is pretty much the death of anyone. But he ran out early of step 1's, so had to deal with step 2's, then 3's and 4's. Then he really ran out, because most of mankind is down in the step 5 and step 6 area, no clue, never been out, can't get out, all black, don't believe it, all circuits, bank talks for them, etc. If you follow the issue closely across 1952 to 1955 say, you will find he issued many versions of the Standard Operating Procedure for clearing. It was always devoted to steps 1 through 4. He would deal with step 5's (all black no mockups) and below with a single paragraph, something like "If pc can't get mockups, remedy havingness on black masses". In otherwords, the pc is stuck in black masses, so make more of them until it clears. Right. Sure that process will work, across 10**98 hours. In other words dealing with the step 5-7 was so hard and impossible, that it just wasn't worth it. So Hubbard got good at dealing with 1-4, and claiming to have easy processes to help the 5 become a 4, BUT NEVER ACTUALLY USING THEM, he left 5's and below behind. They just didn't show up for auditing, and Hubbard has happy to have it so. For one 5's and 4's didn't get along, because a 4 was at the bottom half of the God range, and the 5 was at the top half of the soul/human range, and souls just hate gods. The usual thought in a 5's head towards a 4 was 'why don't you just as-is my case for me!' More practically the auditing of 5's was so slow they didn't have enough money to pay for their own case gain. The 4 is trying to become a 1, the 5 is trying to become a better 5 with some super powers to protect his 5ness. So you got tomes and tomes of stuff to deal with steps 1-4 which were relatively easy to exteriorize and stabilize, and nothing to deal with steps 5-7 which were impossible to audit but which were the vast majority of human beings. Somewhere after the 50's he simply ran out of step 1-4s on Earth, I mean a handful, a few hundred maybe, and was stuck with 5 billion step 5-7's. So the remainder of Scientology then by necessity was directed at helping lower level preclears get up to a point where they weren't lying to themselves complusively, able to talk to an auditor and then make some general case gain. Notice in Creation of Human Ability, how many processes are there for Route 1 (steps 1-4), just a few, and how many for route 2 (5-7) hundreds! That's because auditing below step 4 is auditing stone. At 4 and above you have a being talking to you, at 5 and below you have a Newtonian nutcake marble. Thinks he's meat etc, will defend it to the death, the whole thing. The church began to fill up with 5's and 6's, none of whom ever made any real case gain, and although hopeful, had little clue of what a Godsoul is really like in the God state, and remained mortal meat until the day they left in disgust. They left a better 5, but never reached 4. A 5 is a pretty well off human, a 4 is a very sick God. Also because of the proliferation of failed 5's in the Church, when a true 4 or 3 walked in, possibly in good comm with disincarnates, they were treated as a 5 or a 7, declared PTS Type 3, (Potential Trouble Source type 3, sees imaginary beings around him), and were never able to make case gain either. The 4 who was in actual communication with other disincarnate beings was confused as a 7 who was halluinating beings that didn't exist. 5's don't believe in disincarnate beings, even in the Church where they aren't even allowed to talk about them, so anyone walking in that is talking to or about other beings, or bothered by them HAS to be a 7 you see? And from there on down the Church went to hell in a hand basket. Eventually what happens in such groups, is they go out of valence in OT III (freedom from overwhelm,) and they stay out of overwhelm themselevs by dramatizing overwhelming others. And if you cross their path, you either get assimilated into their out of valence dramatization and help them overwhelm others, or they start overwhelming you. That's OT III at its proud and glorious best. Which is why anyone not at OT III or above is kind of a danger to be around, and why almost no one runs OT III out, too easy to remain unoverwhelmed by dramatizing overwhelming others. But even an OT III is a pretty sick step 4. People who are out of valence feel 'just fine' even though they are dramatizing a time when they were tortured to death because they are torturing others to death in present time. Should they stop and consider for a moment, then they don't feel so good... :) The overwhelm of OT III was a whopper, imagine standing on the edge of Mount Saint Helens right on the lip of the caldera and the lid blows. The compression wave takes about 3 seconds to cross space and time to you.... Now imagine later being a Churchie, and you are talking to someone on the street, and they are being a human being, and you are being Mount Saint Helens.
