"This is a cold blooded and factual account of your last sixty trillion years," from 1952's 'What to Audit', found Hubbard telling others the contents of their minds, but it was nascent mind grope (later becoming the "upper levels.").
The early 1950s e-meter reactions demonstrated to an audience, while the audience went "ooh!" and "ahh!," was nascent "Your e-meter will tell you"-ism, and the 1951 'Science of Survival' "no rights of any kind," and its "dispose of quietly and without sorrow" was nascent Fair Game Law.
The seeds had been planted.
However, it was too early for the full implementation of these ideas on the still small, fragile and tentative membership. That would need to wait for a decade, as would Hubbard's implementation of most of the ideas outlined in the enigmatic "Russian Textbook on Psycho-politics."
In the mean time, Hubbard surrounded himself with those excited about his much advertised vision of a better world, and excited about the full releasing of spiritual ability.
Hubbard liked to write and he liked to lecture, and he had a knack as a practical psychologist. He drew on the ideas and innovations of the most creative of those around him, and drew on his own knowledge of abreaction therapy, Korzybski's General Semantics, and Aleister Crowley's Magic(k). He re-worked the (four 'letters' - ingredients - of the) Kabbalistic 'tetragrammaton', and it became his 'Four Conditions of Existence'. He rewrote Crowley's 'Naples Arrangement' and it became his 'The Factors'. He borrowed Crowley's idea of a multiplicity of infinite minds and further excited Scientologists with that notion. None of these were original with Crowley, who was as much a relay point as was Hubbard. Yet, unlike Crowley, Hubbard would eventually incorporate the methods of psychological warfare into his system, and use those methods, not only on his perceived enemies, but on his own followers.
And when he finally - in the 1960s - unleashed fully, and covertly, the psychological warfare methods of his "Russian Textbook" on Scientologists, he also returned to fully utilizing those ideas he had briefly tested more than a decade earlier.
He gave Scientologists a past, he gave them a future, he told them the contents of their own minds, and made it plain that only HE knew and others were going to be told.
Hubbard had written confidentially of the importance of "using enemy tactics," and would even use those "enemy tactics" on his own loyal followers. He had written of psychiatrists in August 1963:
"Psychiatry is authoritarian and tells the person what's wrong with him, often introducing a new lie. Scientology finds out what's wrong with the person from the person."
Soon to follow would be the secret and very serious, and very dangerous, and vital to your survival "Clearing Course," "OT 2" and "OT 3," in which Hubbard would do what he said the psychiatrists did.
From 'Science of Survival: Prediction of Human Behavior' - by L. Ron Hubbard, 1951:
The reasonable man quite ordinarily overlooks the fact that people from 2.0 down have no traffic with reason and cannot be reasoned with as one would reason with a 3.0. There are only two answers for the handling of people from 2.0 down on the tone scale , neither one of which has anything to do with reasoning with them or listening to their justification of their acts. The first is to raise them on the tone scale by un-enturbulating some of their theta by any one of the three valid processes .
The other is to dispose of them quietly and without sorrow. Adders are safe bedmates compared to people on the lower bands of the tone scale. Not all the beauty nor the handsomeness nor artificial social value nor property can atone for the vicious damage such people do to sane men and women. The sudden and abrupt deletion of all individuals occupying the lower bands of the tone scale from the social order would result in an almost instant rise in the cultural tone and would interrupt the dwindling spiral into which any society may have entered. It is not necessary to produce a world of clears in order to have a reasonable and worthwhile social order; it is only necessary to delete those individuals who range from 2.0 down, either by processing them enough to get their tone level above the 2.0 line — a task which, indeed, is not very great, since the amount of processing in many cases might be under fifty hours, although it might also in others be in excess of two hundred — or simply quarantining them from the society.
A Venezuelan dictator [Juan Vincente Gomez ] once decided to stop leprosy. He saw that most lepers in his country were also beggars. By the simple expedient of collecting and destroying all the beggars in Venezuela an end was put to leprosy in that country.
According to Hubbard, an easy way to spot a low toned person was by his attitude towards Dianetics/Scientology and Hubbard.
This was an early expression of what, years later, would be formalized as Disconnection and the Fair Game Law.
If this aspect of Scientology, part of its doctrine since the early 1950s, and woven into that doctrine, were removed form Scientology, it would no longer be Scientology.
A key part of Scientology's Fair Game doctrine is deception: "trick, lie to."
Dealing with those at lower awareness levels, a Scientoogist has no choice but to communicate with them in a less than honest fashion.
It is impossible to be honest - to himself and to others - about Scientology, and to remain a Scientologist for any length of time.
This is the dilemma that outside the CofS Scientologists must face.
It's not enough to remove "green on white" or "Ethics," etc. The entire subject is contaminated.
