The Real Purpose of TR1, Cognition!

[HelluvaHoax!]

Scientologists always get an answer to their Dreams. 100%!

After all, once you're a Scientologist you're *given* your dreams and they're always fulfilled. Dreamed about getting a pony? Nah, that's not a good dream; you should dream about making traffic lights change.

Zinj

Scieno-Scenario: An OT is in their car, stuck at a traffic signal. When it doesn't change they make a phone call.

OT (on cell phone): Hey, I'm going to be late for course.

RECEPTIONIST: Thanks, I'll transfer you.

REGISTRAR (picks up call): I understand you are running into stops.

OT: No, not really, it's just a broken traffic signal.

REGISTRAR: Have you tried postulating the light to turn green?

OT: Yes, I have been postulating that now for 2 hours.

REGISTRAR: I see. Your postulates are not working then?

OT: Uhhhh....I guess not. But--

REGISTRAR: What does Ron say to do if your postulates are not working?

OT: Can I just give you my charge card number this time over the phone?

Do fish fly?

Do bears shit in the woods?

I'll repeat the auditing question:

Do fish fly?


Why...yes! Yes they do!

Or maybe a $cio take-off on the meridian therapy which would be the meridian style therapy itself and the mind-numbing "FEEL MY FINGER? GOOD! "FEEL MY FINGER? OK! "FEEL MY FINGER? GREAT!

Reminds me of another Training Routine called: "DON'T FEEL MY FINGER."

It is drilled by Registrars until they perfect the light-touch-fingertip removal of your wallet called pickpocketing.

The drill is passed when the reg can successfully remove $500,000 without the Scientologist noticing anything.

I was thinking this morning, I had some wonderful wins on TR's, on the comm course however that's when I turned into a scary eyed Ronbot.
I was thinking about TR1, and it hit me.

You have to read phrases, from Alice in Wonderland, silly nice but nonsensical phrases and say it like you mean them. You have to assimilate nonsense and spout it as if you are really meaning it. That trains you to read and accept and spout utter rubbish.

It doesnt matter if it's ''You're old father William, the young man said.'' or '' a thetan doesn't need sleep.''

Covert brain training.

Trains you to spout anything. Thats a valuable skill.

What you spout is another area.

Yep, this is true.

 

[Opter]

It's actually part of a touch assist, and designed to get one to feel the various parts of the body to help make pain go away.

Some people say it works very well for them. For me, it generally did not work for headaches, but when it did work, it was miraculous. After leaving Scn, I found the true cause of most of my headaches and generally have been headache free since.

Touch assists are essentially a variant of meridian therapy.

The touch assist was amended ( around 1980 ? ) to not perform a touch assist on a person with a headache. The reason for it was that a headache could have been caused because the person was out int.

I had so many int rundowns and repairs it wasn't funny.

My headaches were caused by sleep apnea. One or two might have been out int, but I guarantee you most weren't.

I got so sick of the handlings, I finally started taking aspirin on the sly.

The Tech for handling of headaches and Out-Int was recently fully restored by COB. The standard C/S (before doing a full Int R/D) is:

1. Fly a Rud.

2. If no F/N on Ruds, meter check:

Not enough beans?

Something to do with inward-facing barbed wire?

Pretending to have migraines to suppressively trick people into thinking Scientology doesn't work.​

3. R-Factor pc they will go to Ethics to handle what reads.

4. Before ending off, have pc give standing ovation to photograph of Dave the Humanitarian.

I feel the same. In the Comm course, you get indoctrinated. You learn the crazy gibberish, the cult-style love bombing, and learning to no longer be yourself. When I started bull baiting, I thought - why do they want me to be a robot, and not have my human responses? Will I actually change into a numb-minded blob?

I got the hell out of there.
Which gave me a lot of wins! I still use the GTFO tech to this day.

Choose carefully in life.

Friends don't let friends join cults.

But......I am having trouble "thinking with" that datum. It doesn't seem to align with another stable datum that I have:

"Never desert a comrade in need, in danger or in trouble. Comrades don't let Comrades blow cults."

 

[Carmel]

<snip>
"Never desert a comrade in need, in danger or in trouble. Comrades don't let Comrades blow cults."

I know that your tongue is in your cheek here, but this reminds me of something which used to irk me while in......

"Never desert a comrade in need" - Back then, to me that meant if someone was in lowers, or out of favour with the Church, it mattered not or shouldn't influence your mateship with them......and that you should stick by them and do what ya could to help them. That help didn't necessarily mean agreeing with their actions or stance, but sometimes it did.

I don't believe in the "never desert a comrade in need", because the "never" doesn't allow for extenuating or various circumstances, but I do believe that one shouldn't desert a comrade when the shit hits the fan. If the "never desert a comrade in need" was in practice within the Church, then the bulk of the atrocities and abuse at the hands of the Church wouldn't have occurred.

Exactly!

Unfortunately, the broad and accepted interpretation of "Never desert a comrade in need" is:

"Never desert a comrade in need of correction, reality adjustment, ethics slamming, head-on-a-pike-tech, RPF, punishment, degradation, declare, expulsion, fair game or other similarly helpful rescue & salvaging techniques."

 

[La La Lou Lou]

Don't forget that the code of honour is optional, ethics is compulsory.

It is out-code of honour to desert your friends. The solution is simple, if you are in the church as public or staff, don't make friends, that way your honour is kept safe.

 

[Voltaire's Child]

I can think of somewhat benign sounding policies that are relatively user friendly that supposedly aren't optional yet they're always opted out of- in favor of the more draconian ones OR really malign interpretations of same. That's the cultic milieu for you.

 

[La La Lou Lou]

Voltaire's Child, You mean given a choice between 'when in doubt communicate', or 'Disconnect from the evil bastards', disconnection will win any time. Yep that sounds about right.

 

[uniquemand]

What I got from the TRs was the ability to look at the person I was talking to, determine if I needed to "handle" something that they were saying before I could get them to focus on what I thought they needed to focus on, and if so, to do so, and then return them to what I was trying to get them to do. It's communication management. I found TR0 eyes open fascinating. I did learn, during bullbaiting, to table my own reactions while I was continuing to do something. This doesn't mean I didn't HAVE my reactions, simply that they weren't allowed to control me.

I can understand why this could be interpreted as robotic, but it's not. I never stopped being human, I simply learned to transcend reaction.

Sure, there is good that can be pulled from virtually any activity that allows one to FOCUS on a subject and give it reflection or practice.

Similarly, there is bad that can be pulled from virtually any activity....

Persons on full-time training, for example, routinely have many wins & new realizations about life--and how to use tone 40 'acknowledgements' to end it--when they are enrolled in a terrorist training camp. Instead of TR-2 and love bombs they acknowledge with real bombs.

Perhaps a Scientology Org's VFP ("The wins of PC's and PRE-OT's") is at the core of the problem when Scientology manipulates the definition of what a "win" is. Terrorists also believe they are doing the "greatest good" and having "huge wins". There can be little doubt that a suicide-bomber-in-training could write a success story that is indetectably similar to a Scientologist in-training.

SUCCESS STORY
How To Shatter Suppression Infidels Course​

Today I had the greatest win of my life and must give all thanks praise to Ron Allah.

The Tech I learned will allow me to be totally responsible for doing Command Intention God's Will!

I now have complete certainty that doing exactly what it says to do in (Ron's tech the Koran) will allow us to Clear the Planet Convert all Infidels.

When I completed and got a pass passing mark on the drills of my course I felt total serenity of beingness God's peace because I knew I could be OT divinely empowered in my mission here on earth while I am on The Road To Total Freedom on the Path to Heaven.

When I apply this workable tech to shatter the enemy, I will be totally blown away and help others to similarly be blown away.​

 

[uniquemand]

Oh, no doubt there are fanatics in every religion. And Scientology was specifically intended by Ron to be a religion of fanatics. Anything other than fanaticism was namby-pamby dilletantism, no?

I'm not saying people should run down to the Church of Scientology to sign up for a comm course. However, I do think what I learned on that course was of great value.
