No one did the "OT 8" that was featured on the 1960s/1970s Grade Chart. It was never released, and apparently - except for some theory - didn't exist.
The only "OT 8" that was released was "New OT 8," around 1986 or so. I was not referring to that "OT 8."
Suggest that you look up "Operating Thetan" in the 'Scientology Tech Dictionary'.
Granting Beingness should be an EP achieved somewhere between the Comm Course and the Lower Grades. "OT," per Hubbard's description, is about operating, and operating without need of a body

My reply:
I agree with you Veda, well said!
When I got in, that was 1979, I remember that old grade chart with the original OT levels.
Nobody had done OT8 back then, that is true.
The 'abilities' Diana talks about are also ones you can learn for free in other religions, where it is all about Loving and forgiving.
You dont need to spend hours and hours of your life in the course room of $cientology to learn that. (only to get their statistics UP)
I learned thee things by being out here, living my life.
It is really true to me that it all has to do with Love, and something I didnt hear about in $cientology was 'unconditional Love'.
Tory Christman is an ispiration for me, as she did right up to OT7, so knows what she is talking about, and now she is out and such a lovely person, speaking out.
She recognized that Scientology is actually a 'trap', and that is something you, Diana, should look at more closely in my opinion.
Hubbard did not understand how the mind works, he just wrote a lot about it and tried to create one 'tech' for all, which doesnt work anyway.
Have you heard of Louise Haye?
She has also written some great stuff.
All best wishes to you Diana.
You seem a genuine person.
