Mimsey and Purple Rain:
I have in No Way read all the LRH Material.. my auditor training was After I left the church.. I picked up a How To Use The E-Meter Book, read it, saw how you hook the thing up.. picked up the cans, and started to solo audit with the commands I intended to use. When I was in the church, learning to become an auditor seemed IMPOSSIBLE.. the huge volume of study packs, auditor packs, MONEY NEEDED, etc.. not to mention I did not even have time to finish a course, being a single parent at the time and working after I left the Sea Org. Learning to audit was really not as difficult as I thought, but of course I ended up not knowing nearly as much as a fully trained person. Maybe that worked to my benefit, looking back, and maybe not
After I spent a year or two using myself as the Guinea Pig, I took on some friends for trial sessions, and found I could do pretty well. Going thru the Axioms helped alot too.. giving me an idea of how the mind works and how best to handle any situations that might come up in session..
I could in no way tell anyone what an ENGRAM actually IS.. however.. just from seeing the results in myself and others, I have to assume SOMETHING is there.. what is that THING that makes you get Keyed In when a guy in a Yellow Shirt shows up? There is SOMETHING there that is saying LOOK OUT - GUY IN YELLOW SHIRT!! What IS that thing?? After running out the incident, that THING isn't there anymore. Guys in Yellow Shirts can now be your pals.. That's all I know, and that is Enough for me.. worth my while to engage in those processes..
As I said earlier.. by adding the Decision Questions to the mix, you do get ALL of the "engram".. or whatever it is.. It seems to be made up of the FORCE of the incident plus the IDEAS you have about it.. all in some kind of neat package that hangs around you like some kind of little balloon on a string Mass + Significance = Engram.. or SOMETHING.. whatever you want to call it.
I can't prove the mind is made up of pictures either.. however.. I know with drills you can create your own Mental Image Pictures more and more clearly.. When I started, and someone said "close your eyes and picture a white cat".. I thought they were crazy.. no way could I get an image of ANYTHING, white or otherwise LOL However, Now I can. My mind, or my self, or my Something is creating something I can SEE with my eyes closed. We appear to be able to create WHOLE MOVIES in dreams.. apparently we are a picture creating machine of some kind ) Dilpickle
