Do you miss it?

[guanoloco]

Well...only the Thursday before 2 stuff. I miss that.

Oh, and CSWs to cover your post so you can make your dad's funeral who dies suddenly.

 

[Dave B.]

I miss the applauding of large framed pictures of Hubbard for uncomfortable lengths of time - no one wanting to be the first to stop and be suspected as PTS.

 

[guanoloco]

I miss the HIP! HIP! HOORAY!!s

And the 3 or 4 am bulk mail out days and having to be on post to make muster.

Get some of this so you can just add a little water and still make mustard.

As a former member of public I miss having to dress down when going to the org.

If you wore new clothes then staff members would look at you as though you were a millionaire and they'd almost beg you for money.

 

[Glenda]

You people make me feel nostalgic. So much about cult-life I miss. :wink2:

NOT!

 

[Operating DB]

Ooh! I liked the recent posts about insights regarding the lower ethics Conditions. It's nice knowing that I'm not the only one whose mind went in circles and was baffled on what "find out that you are" meant. This is one of the reasons I log into ESMB everyday. It's an unexpected gift when I run across gems like this.

Back to the thread title. Does anyone miss doing TRO for hours with burning eyes, sore butt, bored out of your gourd? I sure do. Oh, those were the days.

Does anyone else miss having a clipboard in their life?

Confession: Clutching a clipboard made me feel important, relevant (to a salvaged planet) and superior (spits). I sometimes wander into stationary shops and longingly look at the clipboard selection. I never buy one. I promise I don't. I fight the urge and force myself to leave the shop sans a clipboard.

Oh my god. I forgot all about the clipboards.

You're right. Every exec would be carrying one of those things around.

 

[strativarius]

Yes, I miss being a dehumanised zombie who could talk for hours about the nature of the human spirit without a shred of evidence to support what I was saying.

Good advice! LOL

HELPFUL TIP FOR COVERTLY DISAFFECTED OTS WISHING TO VISIT THE ORG: You are well advised to shop at Ye Olde Destitute Duke's Haberdashery. They specialize in noticeably worn and shabby finery, once owned by moneyed noblemen who have fallen on hard times and sold their remaining velvet blazers and such--to gain a little pocket cash with which to keep up appearances.

Then when the reg gets that gleam in their eye and rapidly approaches for another big donation, you simply draw attention to your fallen-on-hard-times, wine colored, quilted, threadbare silk smoking jacket--reminding them that when you said that last donation was going to bankrupt you, you weren't joking!

I liked your entire post!

On that beyond-bizarre "Find out that you are" formula, I'll throw in a couple comments that always banged around in my head about it.

* If 100% of the people being assigned TREASON are already Scientologists who have at least done the Communication Course--they would have already done TR-O, right? And the end phenomena or "ability gained" for that training routine is THE ABILITY TO BE THERE. Thus, if they have that ability (to be there) how would they ever need to find out that they are?

* Although the conditions are given holy magical powers by Scientologists--who believe they are supernatural wholetrack universal formulas that Hubbard discovered--they are nothing of the kind. The proof for that is that you can ask a 3 year old with no Scientology training/auditing the question: "ARE YOU HERE?" to which they will cheerfully answer "YES!" Can anyone seriously find any slightest difference between that Hubbard's "confusion" and "treason" formulas?

* If a Scientologist has spent $100,000 or more to go Clear and still doesn't know "that they are", then: a) They are obviously not Clear; and, b) How did they make it go right to earn an extra hundred thousand dollars to donate to the COS for their auditing/training if they don't even know they exist. Who earned the money and handed it over to the cult, in that case?

* "Find out that you are" is eerily similar to the rest of Hubbard's "Bridge to Total Freedom". Let's take OT III as an example--where you are sent on a wild goose chase to find BTs that don't even exist. Same for "Find out that you are"--with the Scientologist looking internally for an answer that doesn't even logically exist if they are consciously looking for it (i.e. I think therefore I am). In other words, if they were present enough to be assigned TREASON and study the formula and work on it, they already knew they existed.
​

The cruel hoax called Scientology Tech: It's not just that the tech doesn't work. It's not just that people pay a fortune for nothing. It's not just that Scientologists have huge wins because they were told they would have huge wins. It's that they're so damn elated & grateful that Ron figured everything out so they don't ever have to think again.

(My highlight in Red)

For our never-ins:

Treason is defined in Scientology as “Betrayal after trust”.

To paraphrase LRH, ethics are relative, ie. it is a crime for a thief to not steal something when they can. Scientology ethics are just another Sharia. Its a crime to not cause harm to an SP or convert someone when you can. This isn’t about you trying to figure out that you “are” as a body a spirit or a human so you can fix some personal screw-up. LRH needed to trust you and to his thinking he couldn’t trust someone who was so clueless that they didn’t know they “are” because if you don’t know you “are” then how can you possibly know that there are all of these Scientological things that are the greatest good for the majority of the Dynamics which can be betrayed in the first place? From his perspective all of humanity was in Treason because they forgot they were Loyal Officers tens of thousands of years ago on another planet and let themselves become so occluded by sticky degraded BTs that they don't instantly recognize LRH as the chosen one.

In other words, the Conditions are the path back to righteousness with LRH via the Ethics Officer, pure and simple.

Yikes! Only tens of thousands?

Are you sure your e-meter is fully charged? LOL

Fuckin A ~ HH - that is MY jacket I wore to the annual Holiday "Beer and Cheese" party at the mORGue when I was on staff.... I wondered what happened to it - it just vanished into thin air. Figures an Oat Tea had something to do with it!

Damn you.

That was my best outfit I wore when the $ell Ebbs came to town!!

I think I see a shadow stain of velveeta cheese on the sleeve there. MY BAD!

Oh yeah, I recall doing quite a bit of "reach and withdraw" on the low budget corn chips, melted velveeta cheese and salsa snacks for our annual traditional Beer and Cheese Party.

We had no money for the Annual Traditional Celebration because it went up lines so we got on our "CREATE".

The staff did some dumpster diving and we found a huge bag of generic low budget corn chips...they had an expired date on the front but there was absolutely NOTHING wrong with them...they were fine.

I spotted a huge bag of Taco Bell salsa packets (hot) that had to be at least 10 years old....laying next to the cock roaches that had died - but no worries - cock roaches don't like salsa in packets...they prefer fresh.....

AND I used the SP internet to research how long the packets of salsa were good for and they said there was so much MSG in them...they could last for 45-50 years. No use letting them go to waste! Besides...I was going to re-do my Purif for the 4th time since I joined Scientology so I was confident I could run out any toxic waste I ingested that evening.

No Beer either - just tap water...but a rich public, (I clean their house each week) was really cool and gave us a few semi-rotten lemons they were going to throw away anyway - so I nabbed them, sliced them up to put in the water to make it special.

I love how much create I can get done thank's to LRH's book on ART.

I am an ARTIST!

I remember I stayed up real late the night before - opening and squeezing 100 packets of Taco Bell salsa My senior said I was a BIG BEING and it was really theta. He wrote me up a commendation to put in my Ethics folder.

Ahhh...the good ole days of "Beer and Cheese" parties with our Secret Santa gift. Such wonderful Holiday memories.

Who on Xenu's frozen H-Bomb would want to be at a fricken WOG family Christmas / Chan-aka Holiday festival... opening enturbulating MESTY gifts like I Pads, sports cars, clothes and fine perfumes when you can spend the Holiday at your local Morgue with a bunch of poor bastards living in Scientology Flop houses and living the Stat Driven Life....

Especially knowing you are HELPING CLEAR THE PLANET FOR REAL....

opening Secret Santa Gifts like a pack of combs, shaving cream and life saver candy books....?

Yeah - I miss it!

Hoaxyboy,

I am so glad you finally put your ethics in and gone out of propitiating those girls taking advantage of you for decades.

You don't have to buy women such expensive haute couture clothing - You are a valuable being and you don't have to throw out such amount of money to get love in exchange (that could be spend on your freedom)

Listen to me Hoaxyboy,
You are a valuable being - stop buying such expensive haute-couture to women. Your excess of generosity create out-exchange sit in their dynamics.
(a better option would be to help them go free)

Well done on taking back those clothes and recover some money out of it on e-bay.
(it was a gorgeous piece of design though)


Much love
Lotus
