It is nice to see someone who can confront the truth, and not spread delusional, self-serving, ser fac justifying, sunk cost motivated, bullshit. http://markrathbun.wordpress.com/2013/09/06/emotions-iv-the-top-of-the-tone-scale/#comment-276556

Amen also.

One may, or may not, want to consider applying the same reasoning to the Reactive Mind. Until one was introduced to Dianetics, Scientology, or the book Dianetics, nobody thought they had a “Reactive Mind.” One is taught that one has a Reactive Mind, and that one must get rid of it. One is indoctrinated that one has a Reactive Mind, and that one must get rid of it. And then….

Yes. I believe that when one looks at “directly at what is there” one sees that there is really nothing there. But we are gradually inculcated that something IS there, and that “something” is responsible for our aberrant behavior. We have begun to assign cause to that “something”. and have abrogated the responsibility that the “something” is of our own creation.

The CS, not me, determines when that “something has been handled, in terms of an EP that was created by Hubbard. And on it goes as one moves into the OT levels, when that “something” has gone beyond the myth of one’s own reactive mind, to the grand myth of countless BT’s, each with its own mythical reactive mind. Each step along the way, that “something’ is reenforced. The “something” obviously is “case”. It is not me who determines when the “case” which I believe was never really there in the first place, has been handled. The insidious thing is that the good feeling,the lightness, the release,, comes when you have decided that some portion of the “case”, which you, with the help of LRH’s data, have yourself created, is no longer there; because you, yourself, have “as-ised” it. For me, and let me emphasize this, for me, it was brilliant trickery.
