I read further today. I learned something new. A reporter from the U.S. magazine, The Saturday Evening Post was invited to St. Hill by LRH in 1964 and was given red carpet treatment and courted by LRH in the hopes of having a favorable article written and published in the magazine.
To LRH and others, it appeared the author was won over and would supply the hoped for article. It took several months but when the article was published, i trashed LRH and his tech and in particular it mocked LRH. This had a major negative impact on LRH and he was never quite the same after that article came out.
His immediate response was to write the Bulletin KSW #1 and to stiffen up on ethics. I not not encountered the story of the Saturday Evening Post article in any of my past readings on the internet or in books. So far so good, the book is very well written and informative.

KSW #1 was written February 7, 1965.
Not exactly an "immediate" response.
It may have been a relevant response. Possibly the current time lines discussions may shed some light.
Also 1965 was the main year of ethics PLs etc.
This was a main time of change.
Maybe this was a trigger?

Then there was the incorrect and back-to-front research he did into own goals GPMs. I speak of the impact of this incorrect tech endeavor in my FZ presentation in Pasadena. The point here is that Hubbard abandoned pursuing the truths of your power, abilities and such, and dived off into his implant shit in early part of '63.

I know personally one who was on the 1962 experimental briefing course and she verified everything Alan said about the problems of
handling own GPMs, and the difficulties experienced by the people on that course.
I was told by a knowledgable techie that the GPM tech was solved by the grades. I'm not sure if thats true or even partially true.
Otherwise LRH failed in achieving what he set out to accomplish.
Interestingly my friend said she gained real abilities from this course, but also was left with unhandled case problems.
Why the " Implant shit" works is somewhat mysterious. I've done
OT 2&3 twice with CC platens in between and got great benefits.
Having known lots of people who've done them and read success
stories of success stories by others, they generally give people good gains. OT 2 seems to give better benefits than OT 3 in general.
One can actually get gains by getting a dictionary, thesaurus or book of antonyms & synonyms and selecting all the verbs or other expressions of intentions and running repeater on them . . . . you'd get "gains" from that too. It would in fact be tantamount to what you do in running Hubbard's implant parade.
And the reason you'd get gains from it is because you are discharging the encysted charge and life-force hung up on those intentions and action which are common to us all . . . the concepts of the words in the dictionaries, etc., are common to us all. And the why/how the discharge occurs is that you are knowingly doing and taking over the action/intention of the concept being repeated. See the thread Dulloldfart started on "Out-Int, is it real" . . . we get into it there, and also tape 5 of my Pasadena presentation.
Though I sure as hell would recommend anyone contemplating doing the implant stuff to "not bother." Spend your time going for the "real deal."
And my recommendation to you, my Dear T, is stop defending Hubbard's implant stuff as the thing to do . . . and go find out what Alan discovered to be the better approach to recovery of self . . . until then, you are going off half-cocked.

The problems we all had with dealing with "own Goals GPMs" were due to approaching the subject incorrectly. Hubbard, of course, like all of us was hit with that charge and the "creaks" (the feeling of the body being crushed) . . . and then, to use the term he used to refer to those who chicken out by avoidance on OT3, he rabbited and dived off into the lighter lock stuff. And he left all the BPC stirred up by the incorrect approach to own GPMs on his case.

But my post was about change-points in Hubbard's life that set him up to be more and more dramatizing of evil. It is not an inval of anyone's gains from running implants.

And as to the notion that "the GPM tech was solved by the grades" . . . no bloody way. And also which version of "GPM."
I was reading TROM the other night with a view to citing some of Dennis's stuff relative to the "GPM" thing, for I plan to continue on with the Games Matrix piece I posted after my FZ presentation. Dennis made a very astute observation totally missed by Hubbard which is a why behind Hubbard screwing up on his own goals GPMs endeavor. But, notwithstanding, Dennis also missed some key points that led his research endeavor astray also.

Well, it would seem there is ( mostly ) agreement that LRH went off the rails even if there is diasgreement why or how he got off the rails.
?
Will it ever be when X's ( or supposed to be X's ) discuss something without having to have a " why " ?
Anyway, for me, bat shit crazy seems to cover LRH.
Is the Pasedena tape available online?See the thread Dulloldfart started on "Out-Int, is it real" . . . we get into it there, and also tape 5 of my Pasadena presentation.
. . . and go find out what Alan discovered to be the better approach to recovery of self . . .

Key points of change in a more negative direction by LRH were in this sequence. As we now know, he always was "bent," but there is a sequence of events in which he went further and further around the twist.
A key point is mentioned by Alan in his "Opening Pandora's Box" thread. This was the event wherein LRH "lost his auditor" (MSH) when MSH found out he'd gotten another woman pregnant: this around 1962? The conflict with MSH and guilt trip that occurred had an impact.
Then there was the incorrect and back-to-front research he did into own goals GPMs. I speak of the impact of this incorrect tech endeavor in my FZ presentation in Pasadena. The point here is that Hubbard abandoned pursuing the truths of your power, abilities and such, and dived off into his implant shit in early part of '63.
This is when he abandoned the truth of you, went negative, fixated on all the space opera shit we "all" were supposed to be effect of and have to "run out."
This is the point wherein Hubbard saw enemies "everywhere" . . . add to this the "betrayal" of the bad press articles . . . and you find he was ever after writing about "SP's" and going mad about the whole universe. Earlier in the last quarter of '62, with the introduction of the $cn List 1, he had began to hunt for those who opposed him and $cn, but he hadn't quite descended into his mad, intense fight against enemies at that stage.
The insane reaction to "enemies" really began to manifest after he flipped from "processing the positive" (own goal GPMs) to the negative of the (motivator side) implant GPMs.

I know plenty of highly trained techies who'd consider Alan's stuff as nonsense. I don't take that view. Nor do I go around bashing other tech.
Now a question for you or anyone to answer. OT 2 is not just looking up words, but there are also end words added to the concept. I'd
be very interested in any suggestions as to why they work.

Is Alan's stuff now public domain and online?
There are lots of very knowledgeable experts out there - but their expert views do not agree that well. Reading more is good - but buying more![]()
This makes quite a bit of sense.
Thing is the "implant shit" works very well, and making derogatory comments about it does a disservice. That there may be other tech out there as good or possibly better I consider a very reasonable point of view. One can do all of them if one wishes.

Recently had a very strange experience. A friend visited and he was quite amazed when he saw some of my paintings. He showed me his website of his paintings and many had an eery similarity. For example on my website [link at bottom] in section " History of the Freezone" is a painting that seems to be of the " Tocky" end word " Sun Swing". Done before I heard of scientology. He had
a picture that was almost exactly the same. Others of our paintings had strong similarities also.
Now I don't know if I even believe OT 2 was an implant. But somethings definitely going on. But what?
