There is something I have wanted to say for a while. To say it one needs to assume, for the point of discussion, that Scn works and that the tech is true so for those who don’t believe this I ask that you not shoot the messenger.
One of the fundamental tenets of Scn is that in the presence of continuous overts one will not make case gain. The history of Hubbard demonstrates that he continually committed overts. So according to his own doctrine he should not have achieved case gain through auditing. How then could it be possible that he was supposedly able to explore higher and higher levels of awareness and continue to climb the bridge?
The history of Scn research and development shows that along the way Hubbard was assisted by many competent Tech finders, Galusha, Roos, McMasters, Mayo to name just a few. These people, by and large, were able to keep their ethics “in” and were capable of case gain. They were able to achieve greater abilities for themselves and others and progressed the subject of Scn.
When Hubbard went into hiding in the early 80’s and lost nearly all his tech finders from 82 onwards, the development of the bridge petered out. Hubbard could make any case gain and push the envelope further and he had cut himself off from the people who could. This may be why the OT level research was never completed and written up.
Anyway FWIW this is my opinion.
