From the approach of simple brain mechanics, the tech affects and effects the formation of one’s neuron connections, how the brain is hard-wired – which is how dangerous thought-control is achieved. Miscavige has harnessed the “Golden” tech’s effectiveness at hard-wiring the brain in a certain way so that people are actually destroying themselves and the only thing golden is the inside of his tiny little pockets.
I so appreciate Glenn’s warning to be extremely selective about the person you entrust yourself to in the auditing process. Personally, I trust only myself and God when it comes to managing my thoughts, but if I were ever to be audited I would make absolute certain that person had my very best interests in mind and that there was a genuine bond of love between us (which Glenn also advocated). And that is what I admire most about this Indy community. I believe you truly are invested in each other’s best interests and well-being, and there is a heartwarming abundance of love here.
I’ve encountered a lot of DM Scientologists via my activism and for the most part it is apparent they are wonderful people at heart – but it’s cloaked behind the processing. I really like those handlers in LA and wish Patty Baber would take my offer to have lunch someday. She seems like she would be so much fun if that spell of Golden tech could be broken. I even enjoyed meeting with Kendrick Moxon and could see what an old friend of his described as “handsome, fun, and adventurous” still there behind his dark cloak (oh hai thar, Rick). The guards at HGB, Andy Knapp and Franck Paolo…good people and so tragically stuck in the mindset. I even think Tommy Davis is a good guy if he could ever break loose from the puppet strings. My goal was never to destroy a religion but to draw attention to what David Miscavige is doing with that religion to the detriment of people lives. This post sums it up SO PERFECTLY and my fervent prayer is that the day will come when every DM Scientologist reads it and trusts their instincts telling them it’s true.

Jim Logan | September 17, 2010 at 8:54 pm | Reply Hi Tower of Power Pat,
Somewhat recent studies with Buddhist monks have made a fundamental paradigm shift in neuroscience and the concept of ‘hard-wired’ brains. It seems the reality is neuroplasticity and considerations taking rank over the mechanics.
Cool.
Cat Daddy | September 17, 2010 at 10:42 pm | Reply Bare with me Jim, Neuroplasticity is something Hubbard indeed seemed to promisse through Scientology. Independants can let this pass them by or partner up with those devils at Wisconsin University and this guy.

Neuroplasticity. Wiring and rewiring of the brain can go both ways but you allready KNEW that. With this however I like moving to the sensible middle or the middle path because gays will be gay and epilepsie still requires other treathments. More to come, more to come.
CD.

I have a good friend who is a Buddhist (she also has a doctorate in psychology under Viktor Frankl) whom I have known for 41 years (I’m 48 now). Her son is my best buddy since grade school.
She works directly with the Buddhist monks and neuroscientists of which you speak. She has told me of that phenomena, whereby the actual physical structure of the brain changes according to what type of meditation or stimulus it is subject to.
Your summation of consideration being senior to mechanics is now being researched and verified in the scientific community.
Who Knows, maybe they’ll even verify that spiritual beings actually do exist soon! Ha.
BTW, she is fascinated with our group and wants to meet Marty. She’s also read a lot of LRH in the past and says he was “Absolutely brilliant” and considers him “One of the Prophets”.

I have been pointing towards this a while (beating own drum, ego showing). Scott Campbell. This is excellent. “Putting the Science in”
Everything connects with everything Marty here is your chanche and if you alow me to post what I posted on an earlier thread:

Damn Marty my postulate of you meeting up with those guys may well become thruth.

Everything connect with everything. whilr I do not see the founder as a phrophet I can see the line that comes from Freud to Young connecting up with Hubbard going towards todays 25 year study of neuroplasticity. Even Victor Frankl is on these lines.
This is your chance. Cat Daddy, weird scientist by nature.
