MAKING A GOAL FIRE

MODERN SECURITY CHECKING

A lecture given on 4 October 1962A lecture given on 4 October 1962

Okay. This is - what’s the date? The 4th of October, AD 12, Saint Hill Special Briefing Course, lecture number two.

Well, this is the what?

Okay. Pursuant to what I was just telling you a few minutes ago, we had a little bit of trouble recently in California. Poor Chuck was feeling rather sad, so we chased him into the HCO for a check and sure enough - we slam.

Audience: The 4th. October 4th.

Yeap. He slams on me and the oppterm is someone who wont duplicate me. And Ava slams on „Scientology“ and „Ron.“ The dynamic is „people with a cause,“ and the item is „someone willing to wipe out victims.“ Now you see?

Four Oct.?

Audience: Oooh. Yes.

Audience: Yes.

All right. Well, that’s nothing particularly discreditable; it’s all within the realm of salvage. You see, it must be well within the realm of salvage with Julia sitting on top of it. Because they already - they already got the dynamics and items. They’re just within a few inches of goal. See, that’s easy to do.

You fall into my bad habits. Four Oct. AD 12, Saint Hill Special Briefing Course, lecture number one.

And down in Johannesburg, we’ll have that situation well under control. But undoubtedly there was somebody rock slamming down there madly, and they let the organization go down and down and down and down. And all of a sudden I found out quite by accident that they were facing almost immediate wipeout financially, because the Saint Hillers that were there - there were only two - were doing all outside private pcs for themselves and were doing none for the HGC, so no clearing was taking place. And there was just a little bit of staff clearing going on and clearing was being relegated for the chosen few. So we’re having to remedy this situation.

A footnote. No, IM talk to you about it more than a footnote.

Right now there are heads flying. And it was very upsetting; it made me late for supper and I couldn’t give the children their movie. But I’m afraid that’s all the damage it will do. When you’re sitting with a fistful of answers you don’t worry much because you can straighten things out. But it looked grim there for a little while, man; it looked grim.

For a long, long time we’ve had dissensions and upsets and casualties and so forth over the past twelve years.

Boy, I walked in there this afternoon and you should have seen my desk - it was stacked high. Somebody has been very busy sending telegrams to practically everybody in the world to send telegrams to me, see, protesting any action I was taking to set the organization back together again. And my action was simply to put the Saint Hill graduates in the HGC and start clearing people for the organization, not privately, just to salvage the organization. And this is the action being protested. There it is. Not a very survival activity, huh? Ve fix. Ve fix. Ve fix.

Dianetics and Scientology looked like a battlefield, you know. It’s coming out of it. Things are much more even. Things are much more easily handled. Things are smoother, but we still have occasional upsets here and there.

But life can get trying. And the breakdown at that particular point was no auditor in the vicinity was alert to this Sec Check bulletin. And nobody had suddenly walked in and started putting people on the meter and say, „All right. Consider committing overts against HASI Joburg.“ You know? And they would have picked up two or three slammers in key positions and that would have been that.

I gave you an HCO Bulletin the other day that had to do with new Security Checks. I´d better talk to you about the use of that bulletin.

Auditors don’t realize that they live by the meter and that their problems are solved by the meter and their problems aren’t solved any other way. There was a member on our staff in there, this afternoon, was telling me about solving problems but said he’d left his meter home! Well now, how could he leave his meter home? That seems adventurous, because he has callers all the time and some of those callers are all ARC broke. The proper action is not to sit there and smooth something out. But this staff member is learning and advancing and I’m very proud of him, because he did some auditing on the person, not argue with him. But he should have had a meter because I know there was another withhold. See?

The bulletin, of course, is valuable in two directions. One, it points the way to a resolved case and that’s the most valuable. And on the other fork of the road, points the way to peace and quiet while we get the cases cleared. And these two directions are highly desirable, but one complements the other.

You have every right to put people on a meter. Don’t get driven off of a meter. And as far as arguments are concerned, there’s no sense in having arguments. I told that adventure I had in Washington. Well, they all work out like that. Well, what’s the idea of talking to somebody for five hours trying to argue into them. Because look, I can tell you by experience you’ll never argue them into anything. You cannot argue them into anything, except auditing. They’ll accept that, bang!

Now, for a very long time we have tried to find out, very often in vain, what obsessed or ailed somebody or something what was making them nervous and why they’d suddenly revolt and do things and cut their own throats and that sort of thing. And there are quite a few dead men on the backtrack, quite a few dead men on the backtrack there really are.

You ever try to educate a pe over the top of his aberrations? Well, why argue with a pc? Now, I don’t mean to give anybody any black eyes, because all we’re trying to do is keep the show on the road and keep things together and keep things rolling and we will, because mostly right is on our side. We’re not trying anything horrible to anybody.

And how’d they get that way? What had happened? Was there any international group that was closely and devotedly opposed to the advance of Dianetics or Scientology? And the answer is no. There are a few psychotic activities around on the planet that would be as antipathetic to the grocer’s goodwill as to ours. There would be as many people affected adversely across the planet as ourselves if some of these happy philosophies were put into terrific use; political philosophies.

You only start breaking down when right is no longer on your side; when you are no longer a companion of truth. And that is when your light starts to dim. And alter - is sets in and there goes the GPM, and it gets bigger and it gets bigger and it gets bigger, and there you are. And it’s not always true on all planets that I come along at the opportune moment, so I’ll give you a little piece of advice for the future: Live with truth and thy light will always shine bright.

There’s another one which says anything you have should be if you are working hard anything you have should be shared with somebody who won’t help you. That’s socialism. That’s a nutty philosophy. If you work real hard, then somebody else won’t have to work. And of course, this is represented as „everybody will have leisure.“ Except those, of course, who are keeping the society going and keeping the leisure possible.

Now, the subject I should be talking to you about is listing and goals finding and all that sort of thing. But the thing I’m going to talk to you about right now is how to make a goals fire. And that is the subject of this lecture, whatever preamble it had: How to make a goal fire; how to find the goal that’s the goal that’s the goal; when is a goal is a goal is a goal? Subject of this lecture.

Well, this of course is dead in the teeth of even Pavlov. It’s the nonreward philosophy, you see. If you work, you are fined and if you loaf, you are rewarded. Well, what will that turn mankind into but a bunch of loafers? You see? I mean if you if you know Pavlov’s philosophy of the reward theories and so forth how to make the dog slaver at the right times if man is an animal and if that works, why, this would be death in the teeth of it.

A goal is a goal when it fires. Well, how do you get a goal to fire?

There are political philosophies about, of course, which are the extreme of this. And that is to say that one man should own everything and everybody else should be in total poverty. Now, that philosophy is highly antipathetic to the greater good of the people too.

By finding it and by grooming it up and with good auditing. There is nothing as sacred to a pc as the arrow lodged in his heart. That is a jewel beyond price. It must be handled with a maximum of sacredity. You just make a comment on some pc’s goal sometime and it’ll take the auditor half an hour to clean it off. It’s peculiarly vulnerable to invalidation, suppression and other buttons.

A capitalistic system where you have a group of fifteen or twenty people in a country… Well, Mexico: They’re very rich in Mexico; they’re extremely rich. But South American countries just love this philosophy there’s the ricos and the pobres and boy, the ricos are really rico, and the pobres are mmmmmm really pobre. And the gap is so tremendous. There’s no middle class; there’s no anything. And you’re either a slave or a king with no gradient scale between them and of course that’s a highly false philosophy too.

Now, I had a big problem up to the demonstration you saw last night and that was that some pcs are more suppressive than others. And there are some people whose goals are very, very hard to fire and I thought it was a special button and it’s not; it’s a special action. We got the buttons. What we need is a special action. And what you saw last night on the TV demonstration of October the 3rd was a routine Goals Prepcheck on an item and on a goal. That was routine.

And there are others. There’s a philosophy of democracy, so that the mean opinion is valid. Oh, I don’t know, you take a whole bunch of uninformed people and take the mean of their opinion and then say that that mean is valid and therefore disregard it and then do things and tell them it’s their fault. That’s democracy in actual practice, see.

And I went off the TV demonstration, turned around to another pc, audited the other pc about an hour and a half, an hour and thirty - five minutes and made a goal fire with the same action as I had used on TV. So that’s that, because both these pcs have been worrying me about not being able to make the goal fire. It’s obvious it was a goal, but I couldn’t make it fire. I was looking for special buttons. It wasn’t a case of special buttons, it was a case of special action and that special action is this Goals Prepcheck.

It’s the perfect mechanism to prevent revolt. No better one has ever been invented. It’s a self perpetuating machine that is pure idiocy an American president they put up two goons which you wouldn’t let clean out your chicken coop and you’re told you’re free because you can vote for one or the other of them. And then if everything goes wrong it’s your fault. See? It’s a great philosophy.

And I wish to recommend to you highly this Goals Prepcheck.

Well frankly, all government, of course, is merely a substitute for the disability of a people. Government is a substitute for the disability of the individuals in the population.

Now, I will tell you how you do a Goals Prepcheck. You find out when the goal you are prepchecking was found and you go a month earlier. Let us say it was found on the 2nd of September, 1961. Obviously, it only needs August in the auditing command. So you don’t quibble about dates; it’s the month before it was found. Even if it was the 1st of September, you use August. You understand? There’s not any point in putting it earlier. You just want to get before it with the month. Because somebody might have been fooling around with it for several days, you see, before it was actually found or it might have been ticked. It might have been written down on a list. It might have been this, it might have been that. See? So you just try to scoop it in.

In the absence of an understanding of the human mind, government becomes inevitable. If you don’t understand what makes man tick, you inevitably have government. And you have as much government as there is crime, till the whole government is crime.

Then your actual action that you use on something like this is to put the date of the month before it was found in as a whole date. It’s just the month, you see. And you say: Since (that month), on the goal, (whatever the goal is), has anything been (the seventeen, now eighteen, Prepcheck buttons of October 1st, AD 12, 3GA Listing by Tiger Buttons, 114 New Lines for Listing and it’s the one on the bottom of the page of that bulletin).

You see the logical arguments? They say, „Well, well, you need a government. Should have a police force. Should have this, should have that, should have the other things.“

These buttons are as follows: Suppress, Invalidate, Be careful of, Suggest things to, Withhold from, Protest about, Hide from, Reveal things to, Make a mistake about, Assert things to, Change (or alter), Damage, Withdraw from, Create, Destroy, Agree with, Ignore, and counter - button. That last one made you look up. Counter - button - what’s the counter - button? It’s the button you put on the counter, of course.

„What are you going to need a police force for?“

All right. Now, to this you could very easily add Decided. And you would have a - you would have a very complete area for Prepchecking. lf you were to add that as a line button it’d have to be - „would decide“ or something like that would have to be in there, see? Be „Decide.“ „Who or what would decide you know, to be something or other - whatever the goal is. „Who or what would decide to catch catfish?“ See?

„Well, you need a police force because you got crooks.“

The counter - button is the opposite button to the goal and you get this from the pc. The pc’s goal is „to sniff,“ and you’ve got to get the counter-button. What’s the counter - button? Well, you’re not going to get it anyplace but off the pc. So you ask the pc what would be the opposite to his goal and he says, „‘Not breathe,’ of course.“ Well, you never would have dreamed up that it was „not breathe.“ But, of course, it is. So your counter - button is „not breathe.“ It’s just - be that silly, don’t you see. You run it.

„What you got crooks for?“

You say, „Since August, on the goal to know, has anything not been breathed?“ Makes sense to him. Get the idea?

It’s inevitable that if you have a police force you’ll have crooks. That’s been proved out time and time again.

Supposing his goal was „to fly.“ You say, „All right, what’s opposite ‘to fly’? You know, what’s the other side of ‘to fly’?“

A little town down in Texas proved this not too long ago. They had a jail and they had a deputy sheriff or two and they had crime. A little two bit town spit across the city limits from one to the other. By George, economics got so bad in that community or politics got so rampant or the town was so small, it was so unimportant, that they removed the police force. Well, they removed it on a gradient scale. I think they took off one cop and left one and they had half as much crime. Then they removed the other cop and they had no crime. There hasn’t been any crime down there since.

And he says, „to flop.“

This is an interesting look because the game of cops and robbers…

So your counter - button on this Prepcheck begins then, it starts in - just goes on down the line - and finally gets to the last one as the counter - button: „Since August, on the goal to know, has anything flopped?“ It’ll make beaucoup sense. That’ll be very sensible to him. See? Got the idea? That’s the counter-button. Because for sure that would be the greatest suppression on his goal.

Well, look what they do. They arrest a fellow, put him in with association with a bunch of criminals that really teach him how in prison, and then after a few years release him, and on to the public again, you see. Now he’s educated. See? Now he’s got a motivator. Now he’s really a good criminal. This is the way it goes.

Now, supposing his goal, or supposing her goal or something like that was „to be a lawyer.“ What’s the counter - button to „be a lawyer“? Well, the pc could tell you. The counter - button is „to be illegal.“ Maybe this is what the pc says, see? So your counter - button would read, in the Prepcheck question, „Since August, on the goal to be a lawyer, has anything been illegal?“

And this is a I’m not just being bitter about it it’s true. Police forces have nothing in common with public safety. Now, if you’re going to have crime, you will eventually get some people together and they will say, „We will hire somebody to protect us against this crime.“

And they will tell you, „Well yes, there were illegalities on the contracture of the goals on session number so - and - so that I had with my auditor. And actually he failed to live up to the contract, because at end of session, why, goal so - and - so had not been attained and therefore that was an illegal session.“

And then you say, „Well, there’s some enemies on the border.“ So a bunch of people will get together and say, „Well, let’s have an army.“ Now they’ve got a police force; now they’ve got an army.

And you’d be surprised. This’ll make big sense - makes big sense to the pc. See? Everyone who has a goal has a counter - goal of some kind or another. But you just don’t - you don’t try to assess this thing; you just ask them what it is and you’ve got the counter - button. Supposing the goal was „to be sane.“ What’s the counter - button? Well, of course, it’s „to be insane,“ the pc says or „to be crazy.“ „Since August, on the goal to be sane, has anything been crazy?“ You see? Got the idea?

And somebody’s house burns down and they say, „Well, let’s have a fire department.“ And they go on like this very interestingly.

And they tell you, „Oh, yes! As a matter of fact the most psychotic actions ever heard of took place on the part - the night of so - and - so and so - and - so when I tried to tell my friend over the telephone that…“ And my God, you never got this off as a Suppress, you never got it off as an Invalidate, you didn’t get it off anywhere, you never heard of this phone call before; and there it is staring you in the face.

Funny part of it is, that police forces, armies, fire departments and so forth have all of them at one time or another run on a completely private basis. There’s nothing the government does that has not been done privately at one time or another.

Now, the way you run this Prepcheck is elementary, my dear Watson. You saw me run two last night, one on an item, one on a goal. I think you thought that was pretty easy auditing. Didn’t you think that was pretty easy to do? Well, actually it was. It was very easy on the auditor. You just cleaned it as though each question was a rudiment. Fast check - just a fast check rudiment.

Well of course, the more government you get, the less liberty you’re going to have, inevitably, because it they’re not producing. The government is a nonproducer and you get more and more government, you’re going to get less and less liberty, because the laws they pass against crime apply to you, who in theory honest hired them, you see. The next thing you know, you haven’t even got yourself anymore and you’ve gone the whole cycle of idiocy.

You watch this thing and you say, „Since August, on the goal to catch catfish, has anything been suppressed?“ And you say, „That didn’t read. Thank you very much.“ And you go to the next one, „Since August, on the goal to catch catfish, has anything been invalidated?“ And you get a read and you say, „All right. That read. What was that?“

But there is no international group that faces Dianetics or Scientology except to the degree that aberration faces sanity. And you get an auditor in there and he’s doing a mediumly good job of auditing. He’ll still have a bit of trouble with a psycho; he’ll still get clawed up.

Pc says, „Oh, that was so - and - so.“

Now, he will eventually, also, come out on top even if he’s just mediumly good. An excellent auditor of course never does get clawed up. And of course, as a group we are moving forward now toward a higher and higher level of excellence in technical application. We know more and more about it; we know more and more about the application of these things. You would be amazed how the principles of auditing work when used in life and so forth if you yourself haven’t had a recognition of that already.

And you say, „All right.“ And you’re watching the meter, see, always on the meter. Not your Prepcheck style of looking at the pc, asking it and then re - asking it on the meter. Nothing involved; it’s just a fast check, see? And you say, „Since August, on the goal to catch catfish, has anything been invalidated?“ And you clean that.

Well, what’s all this leading to? No, the only enemy of man is the aberration of man. There’s no international group which faces Dianetics and Scientology and means to plow us under any more than any other international group would tend to rave at the auditor. It’s like a psycho pc. Probably one of their biggest objections is the fact that we aren’t auditing them, something like that. Normally, by the way, you figure that with a pc and it’ll be right.

And you go to the next one and you go to the next one, just in this sequence here. (You can add Decide if you want.) And you go right on through down the line, include the counter - button toward the end and read the goal. See, this is not Tiger Drilling. Tiger Drilling is a working back and forth. This is more of a Prepcheck or a fast check action. See? Probably technically it should be called a „fast check.“ It’s a goals fast check, but it would be too misleading if you called it that. Now, we’ll call it a Prepcheck.

Some fellow at a dinner party and he’s clawing you up because you’re one of them Scientologists and he had a psychiatrist once who he dearly loved or something. And therefore, you’re a dog and so forth. Oh, the only thing this person is asking for is auditing. I always assume well, he wants to be audited, you know. Chews me up one way or the other well, he wants auditing. All right, wants auditing. Voilá. I’ll give him auditing. Yeah, they always quiet right down, too.

So, you come on down to the end and you say the goal, „to catch catfish to catch catfish, to catch catfish.“ Now, actually, all the time without nerving up the pc, you have been watching the behavior of that goal because every time you said it, you could see it. You see? And you will see as you run one of these things - if you don’t clean cleans and miss reads; everything applies to this that applies to rudiments - you get right on down to the end of this thing and you will notice that its read is improving, if it’s the right goal. And you start right in at the beginning and you run Suppress again and you run Invalidate and you run the whole sequence all the way over again and you test the goal. And then you go back to the beginning and you clean them all the way over again. lf that goal isn’t firing by that time - phooey.

The only thing they want is relief from their own misery and agony. Now, once you’ve embarked upon a course of doingness sort of thing, you’re for it unless you do it. And in times past when we have not executed our commitments, we have been in trouble.

Now, that is an action which can be undertaken at the beginning of a listing session if a goal is not firing well. You understand that? Yet action will make it fire because if you try to tiger drill it on the pc, forever and hard, the pc gets nervy because you haven’t any finite end. The pc sits in for the long haul. The pc’s perfectly willing to do this with this goal because it’s sort of a long haul. He’s going over these things. And you tell the pc why you’re doing it. And he knows it isn’t going to be tested until you get clear down to the end, so he’s not nervy about it. That’s too far away to make him nervous. He goes on down to it and by the time he gets down to the end, he’s forgotten why you were doing it. And he’ll come back to the beginning of this thing and so forth.

Now, there’s somebody right in this room right now that was awful mad at us a very short time ago before some auditing was given. But the reason of the anger is the auditing wasn’t given, although this was never stated by the person.

Now, PR give you the next little know - how on this. I’m going to tell you some more about goals here in a minute - how to find goals and what they are all about. But I wanted to tell you this „polishing goals,“ because it’s quite an important piece of know - how.

You see that? I mean, the person was upset really they had a whole lot of representations but was upset really because you didn’t understand the person and weren’t auditing the person; weren’t relieving them from this misery and agony. Because they’re miserable! There is no getting around that. They’re in misery, man!

This doesn’t sound like much of a discovery because it sounds like much of what you’ve been doing. But I want to point out to you it isn’t quite what you’ve been doing.

Oh, you’ve been there, sometime in the middle of a session you felt like you were stark staring mad. How would you like to feel like that all of the time twenty four hours a day? And not be able to sleep much on top of it? Well, anybody that could take you out of that, you would have kissed on both cheeks. But you would have shot, maimed and stamped on somebody who could have, but didn’t. See, that is the thing that is never forgiven.

All right. Now, here’s the next little piece of know - how: You get down to the end of the thing and you run the counter - button, and you come back to the beginning and you say, „On the - since August, on the goal ‘to catch catfish,’ has anything been suppressed?“

So once you’re committed along the line of a service, you must execute it. It doesn’t do any good to tell some pc who is clamoring around, trying to get some auditing that you haven’t got time, that you don’t want to. It doesn’t do any good at all. You’ll have to go ahead and make some kind of an arrangement whereby it gets done, not necessarily that you do it. See, you have to make some kind of a solution where auditing can occur.

And the pc says, „Oh my God, why are you going into that? You went through it once!“

And in handling any of these situations and any condition which I speak of tonight in this lecture are governed by that principle. If you do that if you do that, you’ll come out all right. You’ve got to make some kind of arrangements whereby auditing can occur.

Well now, look, look. The reason the pc sort of blows up at that point is because they consider the answers on Suppress they now have to have been missed withholds throughout the Prepcheck, even though they didn’t know about them. And so you don’t put in your random rudiment, you tiger drill the button the pc objects to. And anytime the pc objects to your going over a button, you tiger drill that button. You got it?

It’s very funny, but you would be amazed what a pc… Well, let’s take it right close to home; very, very close to home right in where you’re operating right now.

Audience: Yes. Mm - hm.

You’re aware of the fact that the pc is screaming. Oh my God, you’re the worst person that ever lived. And you’re the auditor, you see, and this pc is just screaming, throwing down the cans and now that’s it they’re finished. You know?

So they answered Suppress like a lamb on the second run through. They answer Invalidate like a lamb on the second run through. They answer Be careful of And Suggest, „Oh, why are you going into this!“ Heh - heh - heh - heh - heh.

Now, your automatic technical response is you got to pick up their missed withholds and that is very, very true! Don’t think I’m saying it’s not true. Yes, you got to pick up their missed withholds.

So you say, „On Suggest, has anything been suppressed? On Suggest, has anything been invalidated?“ You treat it just like a goal. You could actually ordinary tiger drill it. You could say, „Suggest“ - it’ll fire. Therefore, it fired, so you go over into the right - hand buttons: „On Suggest, has anything been invalidated? On Suggest, has anything been suggested?“ See? Wrack it back and forth, left - and right - hand button. Pow - pow - pow - pow - pow - pow. It’s a fast drill, see. Just ordinary Tiger Drill. Pow - pow - pow - pow - pow.

But, here is something that you may not have noticed: that if you just start auditing them well, the ARC break evaporates. Now, have you noticed that?

It’s clean now. You test it again. You say, „Suggest“ - doesn’t fire; it doesn’t read. You say, „Fine. Thank you very much.“

What they’re protesting against is no auditing. Now, if you sit there playing it safe as an auditor and decide that you’re going to prepcheck even a case as advanced and as rather stable as having found his goal if you sit there as an auditor and go into some long, involved Prepcheck that does no listing and you insist on this sort of thing and the goal is ticking pc feels all right; everything’s fine but you insist on going through this long Prepcheck, which is going to take the next twenty five hours… Oh man, I don’t know how you’re going to keep that pc in the chair. I don’t know how you would do it, man. I don’t know!

Don’t go into a lot of preparation. Don’t get a French cooks approach to auditing. They have to have out the pastry, and they have to have the rabbit, and they have to have this, and they have to have a watercress, and they have to have the knives stacked up in exactly diminishing order on the board, you see, before they do anything, you know, and this drives the pc nuts. You know what I’m saying. You know, you don’t go through a lot of ramifications about this thing. It’s just you - so the pc says - you say, „All right, since Aug. 9 99 (he’s been going along like a lamb) - you say, „Since August, on the goal, to catch catfish, has anything been suggested?“

You might get away from it away with it for two hours, you might get away with it for three, might get away with it for a session and a half Then the pc’s going to start nattering. Then the pc’s going to start to get restive. And the needle is going to start to act up even though the pc is keeping himself well in trim, things are starting to go wrong. Along about the third session, ARC breaks are awfully easy to come by very, very easy to come by. All you have to do is put your pencil down gently on the pad, you see, and the pc will scream like mad because you have slammed your pencil down on the bare table, see. This pcs going to make an ARC break or die trying. The next thing you know, you got the thrown down cans, the rage’, the yap and so forth and if still nothing happens, you are going to get just a silent pc.

„Yeow, yeow, yeow, yeow, yeow, yeow, yeow, yeow.“

But you don’t recognize that at any time all you had to do was start auditing the pc because, of course, you were doing no auditing. You were doing an unnecessary, unneeded action. See, it’s a no auditing situation. If you want to know what makes ARC breaks, it’s no auditing. It isn’t bad auditing. It’s no auditing. You see, auditing can be conducted in such a way as to be no auditing as to amount to no auditing of any kind.

You say, „Thank you, thank you very much. Now, on Suggest, has anything been suggested?“ - or suppressed or whatever it is. The thing’s going to fire, don’t you see? Get what I’m talking about?

It’ll give you an idea. The pc’s got his item. See, you can do this in a Dynamic Assess but I don’t advise you to do this but I can show you how to get into trouble, fast. PA got his item, knows that you’re going to go ahead and get his goal, tells you inadvertently that he has a pain in his hip. And you start running, ‘From where could you communicate to a hip?“ See what I’m talking about? Pc would get pretty upset.

Audience: Mm - hm.

Now, look. Supposing you did that for three sessions? Oh, man, there’d just be no living with this pc. Don’t you see?

Do you know how bad this button Invalidation and Suppression and so forth can get?

And that will happen inevitably. You must recognize, whatever other factors seem to present themselves, whatever happens to be present, that there is something even more powerful than the missed withhold. See, you can put a pc back into session with the missed withhold. You can pull the missed withholds and it’s a necessary action, and so forth, but there’s something more powerful than that. And that is making auditing occur or making auditing possible. See, that is more powerful. That is a stronger action than pulling missed withholds. I’m not downgrading pulling missed withholds; I’m trying to show you how powerful this action is.

A pc, today in HASI London - and some of you are going to laugh (those that have been listed on lines) - refused to run the 114 new lines for listing beyond line twelve. Said it was impossible, you couldn’t do it and it was no good and you couldn’t do anything about it and the auditor went - almost went up in smoke. Why? That pc must have every Tiger Drill button all smoked up.

Oh, I’ve had a pc just say, „Awwr, awrr, awrr, rum, ruung, rarwr, uruawr, and that goes down and it’s just terrible and so on ouwr ouwr ouwr and you pompous ass. What the hell are you doing sitting there?“ and so forth.

So you do the same action with this, see. lf they get - their Tiger Drill buttons are all haywire, you’re not going to be able to do a thing. The only reason they object to Tiger Drill buttons is when the button itself has got missed withholds on it. So you just straighten up the button. Don’t pull missed withholds. You pull the missed withhold, but you pull them with the Tiger Drill. See? See how you do that? So that ought to keep you out of more trouble than anything you ever heard of.

And just say to the pc, „All right, now, if you calm down now, we’re going to go ahead now and we’re going to run this process here and let’s get the direction of your goal.“

So you start down the line, so forth, the pc says, „Oh, I can’t answer this line! I mean, this line is absolutely impossible! ‘Who or what would catch catfish?’ I can answer things like that but ‘Who or what would catching catfish suppress?’ No! You can’t do anything like that! You can’t suppress fish. It’s already under ‘suppressure.’ „

Not another word out of the pc and nothing showing on the meter.

Your answer to that is simply a smile and a pat on the back and you say, „On Suppress, has anything been suppressed?“ Get the idea? You can just ordinary tiger drill it. You can even go in as elementally as saying,

I just want to show you you have in your hands pure magic. Audit. See, it is pure magic.

„Suppress“ - fired. „On Suppress, has anything been invalidated?“ See? Bang, bang. Bang, bang, bang, bang. You get the answers that have been missed and away it goes. You got the idea?

You also have something in your hands which is pure poison, which is a pretense of auditing, without auditing. Its actually quite dangerous to be almost an auditor. It would be better to be out there sweeping the streets any day. You’d live a much happier life.

See, you could do it on lines. You could do it on the Prepcheck or anything else. And you’ll find, as time goes on, the Tiger Drill buttons will become mushy and invalidated and upset around. People use them kidding around and that sort of thing. You’ll find out one of them will go out this way, you see? You have to know how to put them back together again. Well, you can put them back together again in a minute because you can put them back together with the rest of them.

The person who is almost an auditor, but who isn’t and really doesn’t audit, goes through the motions of auditing, see. Asks questions that sound like auditing, see. Get a meter in front of them and do things with it just as though they’re auditing. Now, if the pc will just go mad. Remember this.

Now, some pc says, ‘I can’t stand Tiger Drilling because it wipes out all my goals.“

Funny part of it is, the pc will put up with a relatively poor auditor who is auditing, but won’t put up with an auditor who is going through the motions of auditing without auditing. So anything I’m saying is real auditing a person real auditing.

„Tiger Drilling?’ It fired. Has anything been invalidated?“ And it isn’t an invalidative action to do that, because you’ll always find one sitting there.

You would be amazed what a pc will sit through. I’ve skipped all rudiments on a pc that obviously had to have them run and gone straight into a Dynamic Assessment quite recently. Just zip, bap, zoom. Smooth needle, pc answering up, everything fine boom. You see. Auditing probably across the top of missed withholds, present time problems see, everything.

Now, they can act, of course, ARC broken if they have missed withholds in the session. So you always want to put in your random rudiment now and then when you do this sort of thing. Got it?

The liability was, if I weren’t me, see, if my auditing in that particular case hadn’t been right straight down the groove and hadn’t been completely effective, I would have come a cropper. See, the absence of the rudiments would have tripped me up. If I for a moment had looked like I wasn’t auditing, these things would have all flown back in my face, see. Funny part of it is, is as long as an auditor is trying, a pc will put up with it just trying.

There’s the crux of this situation. You can thank your stars that just before the congress party in Washington, DC, I came out of my room at 1827 19th Street, Northwest, Washington 9, DC and saw somebody crying in the hall. And they were very upset. And I was on my way to the party and should have been getting dressed. And Reg, of course, he was already dressed, and he was waiting there impatiently. (But I knew my responsibilities, you see.) And I dragged this person into my room. And I think I did have a pair of pants on, but I was no more formally dressed than that. And I sat this character down and this character had been telling everybody everyplace that she had been PDHed.

But supposing you did something like this: you made a pretense of trying.

So with a blinding flash of inspiration, I took the words pain and the word drug and the word hypnotism and I just tiger drilled them. And this poor character, after I got all the charge off of those she still said, „But if I admit that I haven’t been PDHed, then everything I’ve done to people, thinking I had been PDHed, would be an overt.“

And the pc has gone wog, wog, row, row, row, and there’s been a bad ARC break, the pc’s havingness is way down, pc feels completely in apathy and this „pretended auditor“ (the auditor who’s pretending to audit but not auditing) says to the pc, „Ah, look around here and find something you can have.“ And the pc does. „And look around here and find something you can have.“ And the pc does. You notice the pc’s doing the command. And then, „Look around here and find something you can have,“ and then walk out of the room.

So, I said, „If you have been PDHed, have you committed any overts? If you haven’t been PDHed, have you committed any overts? If you have been PDHed, have you committed any overts?“ and forced her to the final conclusion, which sort of - it wasn’t evaluative, it was processing - but she finally - she finally had to conclude that if she was or was not PDHed she had committed overts and she felt much better after that.

My God, you see, it’s like taking a man in the middle of the desert, you see waterless wastes in all directions and offer him a sip of water and he takes a sip of water and then you just pour the rest of it out on the sand. See?

- All right. But that was a - that was a lucky break. Because I was suddenly faced with having to do something rapidly in minimal time and still get to the party and so forth. And so I spent, I don’t know - what? How much was it? Thirty - five, forty - five minutes, something like that. And had all of those - all of those buttons, all of those words tiger drilled. See? And I suddenly sat back afterwards, halfway to the party - Reg had been waiting rather impatiently for some time - I suddenly cognited when I was about halfway to the party: Hey, you can tiger drill any word, you can tiger drill Tiger Drill, you can tiger drill any button; in fact, you can tiger drill almost anything! And it’s darn fast auditing and almost any level of ease can do it provided the words mean something.

Hell hath no fury like a pc not audited. You practically could dish a human being that way. See, if you’re going to audit, you audit.

And Virginia told me that she’d been auditing somebody and she’d been tiger drilling this girl. But the girl was about - oh, I don’t know - must have been twelve or thirteen or fourteen or seventeen or nineteen, but didn’t have too much education and didn’t know what suppress meant and didn’t know what invalidate meant. So Virginia would make her go to the dictionary and look it up, and then ran it and was getting - was being successful. lf you can imagine such a thing. Well, the situation here, is that Tiger Drilling is very useful and you should know how to do it.

Now, all of these things, then, that I’m talking about and frankly all of the things you think you’re having trouble with, are all resolvable by the delivery of auditing. Whether these things are political, no matter what dynamic they’re on doesn’t matter they’re resolvable by auditing.

Now, there are two types of Tiger Drilling. There’s Tiger Drilling to cancel out a goals list until you get to the goal, and that’s just ordinary Tiger Drilling and you wind up those. You say, „To catch catfish.“ It fired - ticked a little bit - so you say, „On this goal, has anything been invalidated?“ And that didn’t read. So you say, „On this goal, has anything been suggested?“ And that didn’t read. And you say, „On this goal, has a mistake been made?“ And that’s - that read, so you clean that off and so forth and you say the goal again and it fires again one way or the other.

If there is a great Supreme Being sitting someplace, I imagine he’d be awful happy if you came up some day and put the cans in his hands. Just think of what he’s been going along with.

And you have to conclude then that one of the buttons you just went over has now just been invalidated or something of the sort. So you take a pass over them and then you take off your Suppress button - you can’t find any action on that and it isn’t firing - you can’t find any action on the Suppress button so that’s it. That’s it - that isn’t the goal, see?

Now, therefore you mustn’t fall short of being an auditor. Of course, the more technically perfect you are, the less mistakes you make, why, the better off you are.

All goals have a certain amount of charge in them. And the thing has to be charged up somewhat to have an invalidation register. It isn’t the pc who is - You see, who is making all that read. See? It’s the charge on the goal that makes Invalidate and so forth read.

You saw a pc last night really got thrown a curve. I was really thrown a curve. I stepped on the edge of the E Meter and the E Meter was springing like it was about to leap off the stand and it was shaking on the screen. Did you see the E Meter shake at the early part? It wasn’t secured. It was secured so as to be sprung, you see. Well, now maybe you weren’t aware of it, but it was the pc who made it that way. He’d set up an auditing room that couldn’t be audited in. Don’t you see?

Now, I give you this as a little test. Take a phony goal, like „to sing songs.“ See? It isn’t the pc’s goal and there’s no charge on it. You say, „‘To sing songs.’ All right, we’re going to - we’re going to take this goal ‘to sing songs. ‘ „

Now stop and think about that for a minute. Think of what this was.

The pc at once thinks, „Well hell, that isn’t my goal.“

Here was the pc who had done it, had fussed up the auditor till the auditor gummed up the front of the session, see and starts asking for goals before he starts the session because this was quite surprising to have an E Meter suddenly start jumping at you, see.

You read, „To sing songs,“ and you get no reaction. You read, „To sing songs, has anything been suppressed?“ You get no action. You say, „To sing songs, has anything on this goal been protested?“ See?

But look, the pc had an overt. Now, there was the liability in the session, not what happened to me, you see. See, the liability was the pc was starting the session with an overt. Well, did you see me clean that up straightaway before we did anything else? And it cleaned up, didn’t it?

What happened? Well, for the goal to read you had to have a charge. The subject has to be charged in order to read. You should learn that about an E - Meter. Pcs don’t just make everything read. You got that? The read comes from the bank. You’ll appreciate that more when you see a free needle and the pc is cussing and swearing like mad and the needle just goes on floating. All right. So naturally you strike a goal and you give it an ordinary

Well, what’s the difference there? The difference is simply this: that pc has confidence in the auditor and also the auditor straightened it up. Don’t you see? So there is actually no great liability to a technical flub if the fundamental underlying all of this is correct, which is: The auditor means to audit and is auditing. Do you see this?

Tiger Drill, just coming down the list. And this goal is „to mend pants.“ „To mend pants“ - it’s got a tick on it. You say, „On this goal, has anything been invalidated?“

I don’t know. I think there are two or three here that if they’d been caught in that exact position with a bouncing E Meter the pc had placed it there; the pc now had an overt on the session I think they would have wound up at the end of session with that needle still rough, rock slamming everything gone to hell, unable to get in any of the end rudiments or anything else. Don’t you see how that was, see?

The pc, „Yeah, I saw it on the list before you came to it. Read it upside down. And I saw it on the list and I thought, gee, that couldn’t be my goal. Because it sort of amused me, you know. ‘To mend pants’ - that’s to use artificial respiration I thought.“

But no, auditing demanded that it be straightened up before we did anything else, and of course, that was what occurred. I was rather, by the way, afterwards, glad it happened. You’ll do the same thing some day. Just remember, though, don’t… So you got flustered, so things went to hell, so you no more than sat down in the auditing room and the plate glass window of the room shattered itself in the windstorm and seven flying pieces hit the pc, you see. This isn’t a good enough reason to have a bum auditing session, see.

And you get that off. Of course, it had a little, tiny bit of charge in it.

The auditing comes above all that and beyond all that and no matter what happens you straighten it out and continue. And it all comes out all right, so long as you’re auditing so long as you really mean to audit.

See? So you say - to even fire that way it had a little bit of charge in it. So you say then, „All right, to mend pants,“ or you can say almost either „to mend pants,“ or „Has anything been invalidated?“ Don’t you see? Because if it’s still got an invalidation on it then „to mend pants“ is going to read again. Don’t you see? You understand that?

That intention, by the way, is something that apparently can’t be counterfeited. A pc can read it wrong sometimes. You’ll sometimes see in some institution or another, some poor devil cowering back against the edge of the padded cell screaming, screaming, you know, saying, „Don’t come near me! Don’t touch me. You’re a leper!“ And that sort of thing.

So it’s almost up to the auditor whether he double - cleans everything he gets or reads the goal again. He saves a little time sometimes when he just reads the goal again. You understand that about Tiger Drilling?

And you say, „Good God, what do I do now?“ Well, maybe, perhaps these words will come back to you: You audit. That’s all that’s wrong with him.

Well anyhow, so he reads „to mend pants,“ and it doesn’t read. And „On the goal, to mend pants, has anything been suppressed?“ And no, not pants - haven’t been suppressed, so that’s the end of that, see? Nothing reads. It’s gone. Well, there’s no sense in doing anything more than an ordinary Tiger Drill with this thing.

You don’t say, „No, I am not a leper.“

All right. Now, let’s get to a different situation entirely. We say, „To catch catfish,“ and it goes tick - same tick as you saw before. „On this goal, has anything been invalidated?“ - tick. You clean it. „On this goal, has anything been invalidated?“ - no tick. You say, „To catch catfish“ - tick. „On this goal, has anything been suggested?“ You clean that. „To catch catfish“ - tick. „On this goal, has anything been suggested?“ That’s clean. „On this goal, has a mistake been made?“ - tick. You clean that. All right. „To catch catfish“ tick. „On this goal, has anything been invalidated?.“

Hell, the fellow’s got some reality, even if it’s a corny one. Don’t Q and A with the no auditing situation he’s setting up. Put in your R factor and your H factor. Put them in. You know?

Now, you’ll run into this sometimes when the goal is charged and the pc knows it isn’t his goal and wishes to God he never put it on the list. You some - sometimes it takes you twelve, fifteen commands to clean one of those confounded things up. He unfortunately puts on the list: „to never have anything more to do with Tweetie Candies.“ He’s thinking all this time, „My God, this can’t be my goal.“ See? And you have to keep cleaning that off as invalidation. And you do - you better clean it off, man. You clean it up; maybe you’re twelve or fifteen commands deep. You see? Well, that’s still by ordinary Tiger Drill because it’s obviously what the source of it is.

I’m here to try to get you out of this and I think I can do so if you give me a little hand here and help me out. Now, touch the wall.“ He’s already touching the wall. „Thank you. Touch the floor.“ He’s already touching the floor. „Thank you. Touch the wall. Thank you. Touch the floor. Thank you. Touch the wall.“

Well, let’s say at the end of about twelve commands you’re still doing this kind of thing: „To catch catfish.“ „On this goal, has anything been suppressed?“ - tick. „What was the suppression?“

All of a sudden he says, „What the hell, I’m touching the wall. Hey, I’m touching the floor! Where am I?“ He’ll come out of it a little bit and look at you and say, „Who are you?“

„So - and - so and so - and - so.“

You just tell him you’re his auditor. Simple. Don’t go into any vast explanation about it.

„All right. Good. To catch catfish,“ - no read. You say, „Aaah!“ „On this goal, has anything been suppressed?“ - tick.

If you don’t ever intend to see him again, don’t tell him so. But if you intend to see him again, why say, „PC be around sometime tomorrow. We’ll do the same thing. We’ll get you out of this if we can.“

Well, look, you’re now in for the only zone where you use Big Tiger. You shift your gears at this point because ordinary Tiger is going to take you a long time. So you just shift into Big Tiger on this thing. Anything that you consider Big Tiger is at the moment, it is. But it’s at least three buttons on the left and three buttons on the right and any other button that seems to apply. Don’t you see? You say, „Now…“ You’re not going to leave this thing until Careful of is clean. See? Big Tiger could be distinguished as multiple buttons. And you’re not going to leave the goal until both Suppress and Careful of are clean. You’re going to make sure Careful of is clean before you leave the goal; Suppress is clean before you leave the goal.

And the attendants of the place would be treated to some fantastic scene, such as: Nobody’s ever been able to come near this person or talk to this person or do anything with this person nobody ever has. Picks up the stool and tries to brain him. And next time you go, why, you’re liable to see something like he opens the door a little bit wider and dusts the stool off for you. Never offers you the tiniest bit of violence. That’s as long as auditing occurs. See, that’s the magic. That’s the magic that underlies all other magic.

In other words, this thing is firing hard enough to warrant some attention, so you just shift into this a little bit upper gear. You make sure now, that you get this thing tiger drilled well. It fires and it doesn’t fire, and it doesn’t do this and it doesn’t do that. And maybe you’re going to go about a half an hour or so on this confounded goal to get the thing cleaned up and get out of there. Well, you’ll get there much faster if you’re doing a Big Tiger rather than ordinary Tiger; that’s leaving too many things by the boards. You understand?

Now, what interrupts this magic? And what basically causes the apparent revolt against Dianetics, Scientology, auditing and auditors? What does it? What mechanism of the mind is it? Is it missed withholds? Yes, but it’s the biggest missed withhold of all. And it has to be a very special kind of missed withhold called a dynamic or an item or a goal. That’s the missed withhold.

You could almost - you’ve almost got all the buttons. There’s probably more buttons here than should be in Big Tiger, don’t you see. But you could use just those buttons at the bottom of the October 1st bulletin and you wouldn’t go astray.

Now, the funny part of it is, that it doesn’t matter what the person’s goal is or his item or his dynamic. It doesn’t matter what it is remember that person is a thetan. And down underneath all of this, never lose sight of the fact. You can say that, well, „Ron’s wrong. People are not basically good. Because look at that guy, see. Just look at him, see.“

You can clean this thing and you’ll get charge of it off and you’ll wipe it up and it’ll come back in and you’ll get it out and it’ll come back in. Well, you’d better use quite a few buttons to clean it up. But they’re all played back and forth.

No, remember that word „basically“ and an appeal to that person, directly, past all this wreckage that he’s got strewn about, reaches and gets that thetan’s cooperation. And when you can get that thetan’s cooperation to his own salvation, you’re in. But you can only get it so long as you sincerely are going to proceed along and actually audit that person. That’s a necessary part of it.

You’re going to leave this thing - was, „To catch catfish“ - didn’t read. „On this goal, has anything been suppressed?“ - didn’t read. „On this goal, is there anything you’ve been careful off’ - didn’t read. You say, „Well, all right. We’ll leave it.“ Get the idea? Now, it’s perfectly safe. If you wonder, why read the goal again - it’ll probably be all right. You understand the use of this?

Therefore, it really doesn’t matter what a person’s goal is or the person’s item or the person’s dynamic. You have there an individual. And the heartbreaking thing about all the crime, wars and upsets of the world is that they were not caused by that individual. They were caused by the misapprehensions of that individual.

So you shift from an ordinary Tiger Drill to a more potent drill and it’ll speed up the length of time it takes to clean up some of these rough, tough goals that go above a few commands. You see? Just shift your gears because there’s more of a chance that is the goal and therefore you want to give it the treatment; you want to give it special treatment. Otherwise you can sweep these goals off at one every ten seconds. You know? They’re going off of that list at a mad rate.

And the most misapprehension of all misapprehensions is his considerations of the dynamic and item as a result of his carelessly postulated goal and that is the most there is.

You say, „To mend pants“ - no read. „On this goal, has anything been suppressed?“ You see? „‘To be a cowboy.’ On this goal, has anything been suppressed?“ See? Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing. Tick. „On this goal, has anything been invalidated?“ - tells you, you know, „to be a cowgirl“ - no read. „On this goal, has anything been suppressed?“ Out of it.

Now, were dealing here with human behavior. I could lecture to you for weeks and actually say it no better than: „If an individual exists and can be reached, then anything he is doing wrong or does wrong thereafter is the result of his not being reached.“ And not being audited, in other words.

You can get rid of a lot of goals. And then all of a sudden you hit „to catch catfish.“ You know? And it goes… See, they look so innocent at first and you tie into them and they go like mad. Well, you just shift into Big Tiger. Thing looks like it’s full of beans and so forth, give it the business.

It doesn’t matter what his goal is. It doesn’t matter what his item is. It doesn’t matter what his dynamic is and so forth. This person will cooperate. This person will cooperate.

Otherwise you’re liable to clean it up carelessly and leave the pc’s goal behind you. So that’s a prevention from leaving the pc’s goal behind you.

But the thing which makes it tough to reach him is, of course, his goal and the item which has grown up as his pet antipathy and then the dynamic in which he’s included all the badness of existence. He’s fighting against shadows. But these shadows are quite real to him.

Now I will tell you a few minor things - a little heart to heart talk.

So you’re going to get into trouble, occasionally, with somebody, basically through a no auditing situation, because of his goal. He has a goal which is antipathetic to Dianetics and Scientology, in his opinion. And the great oddity is, is you might sit around for some time and look at this goal that he considered that committed us to being oppterms and try to figure out how in the name of common sense it could include us.

By the way, the treatment of an old goal, or the Prepcheck of a goal ensues after you have found the goal by Big Tiger. See? You know, this goal was staying in so you shifted into Big Tiger and you drilled it and it fires and it doesn’t fire and so forth.

You could see at once how Scientology would not make it impossible for him to attain this goal. You can see this at once. But he has never been able to. Through the various aberrations and difficulties and situations he has been in, in existence, it is borne home to him that you match up to his oppterms.

Your next logical action for that goal is the Prepcheck which I described at the beginning of the lecture, not endless Big Tiger. You understand?

His goal is maybe to audit people. So you’re standing in his road. See?

You finally got this goal so you can say, „To catch catfish“ - fire. „To catch catfish“ - tick. „To catch catfish“ - no tick. „To catch catfish“ - tick. See? You finally got it so it’s saying that. „On this goal, has anything been invalidated?“ No. „On this goal, has anything been suggested?“ No. „On this goal, is there anything - any mistake been made?“ No, nothing, nothing, no firing pin is firing. „To catch catfish“ - tick. Oh, man — must be! You see, you’ve drilled it for a half an hour or so.

Now, some other fellow has a goal to damn all practitioners and he doesn’t consider us oppterms. So it’s actually on the pc’s interpretation and his experience on the track which has determined the oppterm more even than the goal. So you cannot predict, from having found the goal, whether or not you are an oppterm or not. See, that’s not predictable, given a known goal.

But it drives the pc out through the roof to have endless Tiger Drilling. Pcs don’t like endless Tiger Drilling. Best thing to do is to shift, then, over to a Prepcheck. But that’s when you’ve decided that it’s pretty probable that that’s the goal. It’s pretty probable that that thing’s the goal. It sure stayed with the pc. The pc sure is interested in it. Gave the pc some somatics and so forth. Ah, well, this looks interesting. Now, let’s go over into the Prepcheck.

All right, let’s take this goal: „To be happy.“ This person can’t be audited.

So there are three degrees of treatment of the goal: ordinary Tiger Drill, Big Tiger, and a Goals Prepcheck such as I just described to you. See? Those are the ordinary - that’s routine on a goal.

Apparently you practically have to sit on their chest and feed the cans into their hands and tape them down because they’re just all ARC breaky and nattery and the meter doesn’t operate well and that sort of thing, any time auditing falls short of very effective auditing.

Now, I’ll let you in on some of the facts of life. These facts of life have been troubling you. Pc has goal found in upper south Amboy. Auditor somehow or another can’t be identified. Nothing can be identified. But the pc floats into your vicinity and this goal has been found on the pc. You’ve already been auditing the pc four days before this fact was suddenly revealed: that they had a Goals Assessment in upper south Amboy and the goal found was „to wrap around the flagpole and spit.“ Now, you think that is a very silly goal, and so forth.

One day you come into session and you’re a little bit tired and you’re a little bit cranky yourself You’ve been sent a lot of telexes or cables from a lot of madmen. Why, you flub, you know. You don’t feel like going in today and doing too much along this line. You just don’t feel like it, so you say, „Well, we’ll take it easy today. And I think that I think we’d better run a little Prepcheck on the goal, make sure that it’s right, and so on.“ You feel this would be pretty easy to do.

Well, it doesn’t matter what you think of the goal. This is one of the goals found on the pc. This is something found on the pc. It doesn’t matter what it is, how silly you think it is or how unlikely or how likely or anything else. The likeliness of the goal has very little to do with it, with this simple proviso: that on some of these goals, such as second dynamic goals which have been misassessed, you have to work harder than you ordinarily would otherwise. You just know, that if a second dynamic goal has been found on this pc of which they would normally be ashamed, that the thing is probably just reading on a „Failed to reveal.“ And my experience with those, see - „to go - to bed with eight girls at once,“ or something, you know - my experience with these things is there’s simply a „Failed to reveal“ is the only thing that’s making them read. Even those fall under this same heading.

My God, you got this pc at your throat! See, it’s just that much of a letdown of no auditing and the pc’s at your throat, see.

Your first action with this pc - now, we’re talking about finding or proving out old goals or finding new goals or what do you do at the end of a Dynamic Assessment? See? This is actually all mentioned in the bulletin of October 1st - what I’m talking to you about here, right now.

You may even have done something that you couldn’t even interpret as an action, but it was if you’ll go back and look at it it was something that didn’t add up to auditing not in the pc’s estimation in your estimation, too. Now, you did something that wasn’t auditing or that wasn’t effective auditing. You did something wrong. You weren’t it wasn’t that you made a technical flub, it’s that you weren’t trying in some direction or another.

Your first action on this is to corral (1) every goal found on the pc, and (2) every goal that went out hard.

You want to see a pc really get upset with you, get halfway through to finding their goal, consider it’s too hard and sort of knock it off. Sort of try to patch the pc up so you can turn him loose.

You make a list of those goals in chronological order, against the time found, not the goal’s occurrence on the track. That you couldn’t find. You make your „goals found“ in the order of their finding or their order of their giving the pc trouble. Pc suddenly remembers that they tiger drilled on a goal for nine and a half hours, called „to prove things.“ Nine and a half hours and it finally went out, see? All right. It was never announced as the pc’s goal, see? Nothing like that. You put it down at the chronological order of its having been found.

Oh my God, don’t let that ever happen to you! You’d be surprised. There was somebody here on staff finding some of the staff’s goals. He actually made some progress. He was doing all right. What he did wrong was take on too many pcs. He should have taken one and carried through. Don’t you see? And he dropped people with only a dynamic found or a detested person found or something like that and he ended off their auditing. And they all got mad at him. He actually wasn’t very smart doing this, but there’s what happened, see, and they were all kind of cross with this fellow.

Now, you just take those goals right from the beginning scratch and you don’t tiger drill them - you don’t tiger drill them - you just prepcheck every one of them, just like I’ve given you in the beginning of this lecture.

No, a rock slamming case is one who would get a rock slam. This is a piece of slanguage that we have been using lately: rock slammers. What’s a rock slammer? Well, a rock slammer isn’t somebody you can get a rock slam on. It would be wrong if you assumed that. This piece of slanguage means that somebody who gets a rock slam when you ask them, „Consider overts against Scientology.“ And that broadens out, of course, against Ron, against the organization or against an auditor. And you ask those four things: Ron, Scientology organization, Scientology, an auditor and you get a rock slam.

And if one is still firing when you’ve run through the first Prepcheck list, you go through it a second time.

Doesn’t mean the person’s unauditable. You’d be amazed. And yet they such a person would consider you part of their most mortal enemies. You are an enemy. And their meter behaves weirdly when you try to audit them; you get a suppressed meter; you get a slamming meter. You’ll probably misinterpret this, because you think that because you can turn slams on to everybody this makes every case one of these cases. It does not. This case would actually directly have to rock slam when you ask them one of those four items.

And if it’s still firing the second time, you better find out somebody goofed. Somebody’s bypassed the goal. Because the probability is that in cases that have been assessed, that is what happens.

You just pick them up l’ll show you how you do it you just pick them up, put them on the meter, turn your meter up and you don’t open session or anything. You just say, „Consider committing overts against Scientology. Consider committing overts against Ron. Consider committing overts against the HASI. Consider committing overts against an auditor.“ Then on any one of those four, if this pc develops and picks up a rock slam, you got a security risk. It is that phenomenon which has made things unpeaceful for the last twelve years.

The test is this: If every now and then a goal goes out hard on a pc, the probability is the pc’s goal has been found and abandoned. You get that little rule?

It was not any vast international organization. It wasn’t even the poor old suck chiatrist or the psycho anal ist or the psychologists. Wasn’t any one of these boys none of these boys wasn’t any government. Nobody was after you. It’s just this phenomenon amongst our midst that has given us a bad time, because this other phenomenon matches up with it. This these people, by the way I don’t know, I can’t give you a percentage figure, but certainly is never any more than 20 usually in an organization would be around 10 or around 5 percent. It’s some tiny figure. It’s a very small figure.

We have this pc - and we’ve got one right here. Every third goal found on this pc goes out. You practically have to shoot her down with a cannon barrage. It’s „to mend pants.“ They go down the list, they get four goals below the last one that was tough and now they start tiger drilling „to mend pants.“ And it goes on, and it goes on, and it goes on, and it goes on, and it goes on. And finally the auditor just gets all worn out because it’s taking - it takes two sessions to get rid of every fifth goal on this pc. Now, that is a sign that the pc’s goal - I’ve learned this, just for you - that the pc’s goal has been found and discarded. That is a sign of that.

And you’ll be running a group someday; you’ll want a „clearing co audit.“ All right, let me show you how this works out. Clearing co audit. You get everybody; everybody goes out and they find you people to be part of your clearing co audit and you’re enrolling people. You’re going to teach them to co audit and you’re going to find all their goals and terminals. Everything’s fine, you know, you’re auditing and everything’s going along dandy, but in a clearing co audit there’s ample opportunity for no auditing to occur ample. Because you yourself are not auditing the cases all the time. So therefore, it sets up a little bit of nerviness on the part of the members of that co audit. You’re not doing 100 percent auditing on them personally.

Another sign of it is the pc was very ARC breaky while finding chronologically listed goals three, four, five, six, seven and eight. They haven’t had smooth sessions. The very probable thing is that it was goal one or goal two. You got that?

We’ve just had a Central Organization go this way. I wondered what the trouble was in that area. All auditing was being reserved for a few members on staff and wasn’t being given to the public.

But very often they smooth out and are perfectly happy, and they tell you they will surrender the goal and you’ve made them cheerful about it all - very often that’s their mood. But every fifth or sixth goal, they stop you by requiring the next three or four hours of auditing to drill this goal out - the next goal. You get down the line; it’s „to keep store.“ Here we go, see, at the end of an hour we will be prepchecking. And then for the next thr e hours we will be trying to do something with this goal „to keep store.“ And it finally disappears.

Well, the place was caving in, man. The second I tried to salvage it, in the last twenty four hours, to keep it from going bankrupt and I do mean to keep it from going bankrupt the most piercing screams you ever wanted to listen to and the darnedest lot of lies and balderdash you ever heard of blew off.

And we go down the list four more goals and we have another goal which is „to take a trip to the moon.“ And that takes three and a half hours to grind out. Got the idea?

And do you know all it breaks down to? You’re stopping our auditing schedule! Got that? That’s all. They had it all stacked up.

No, that’s a symptom of the goal is already behind you. The goal has been found; the goal is behind you. Get that? Just take that as an indicator. It’s not necessarily always true, I don’t think, because I haven’t seen it on too many cases. But every case I have seen that on or have heard of that on, the goal has already been behind. They’ve already gone by the goal.

You see, you get people figuring it out this way. They can figure it out so logically. They could say, „Let’s see, there’s only a couple of people here who can find goals, so therefore, the smart thing to do is to have a totally cleared Central Organization and then we can be an example to the whole public.“

Now, you take this chronological list. What do you do with this chronological list? What do you do with it? That’s interesting, because it has to have a Prepcheck. Each one of them have to have a Prepcheck. You’ll find out a normal Prepcheck on these things will take you from one to two hours, and you’re better off doing a Prepcheck than you are doing a Tiger Drill because it’ll take you less time to do a Prepcheck than it will to do a Tiger Drill, and it’s more likely that the goal will finish up firing having done this Goals Prepcheck, see? And you go over those things very carefully; you go over them very carefully.

And the poor, lesser staff member, he isn’t getting any of this. The doors are closed, see, on any of it coming into the HGC, see. Technology is going to pieces left and right.

Now, we’re talking about somebody, of course, that you’ve found sitting on the front doorstep and they’ve turned up and so forth.

I’m afraid society has to survive. I’ve had people in the past put up to me, this: „Well, why don’t you, Ron, take one person and clear that person and teach him how to do so. And then have that person clear another person and teach him how to do so,“ and so forth. Inevitably that person has been a rock slammer. That surprised you, didn’t it?

Now, you could go over these goals, each one of them, with a Prepcheck and find the right goal. You could do this. But do you know it might be more economical in terms of auditing to do a Dynamic Assessment on this pc. Do you see that?

I’ve unwittingly used this principle many times in the past unwittingly.

Because if you didn’t find the goal, there it is. And the goal has been unburdened and so it’s more likely to fire. You see? And if you’re good at doing Dynamic Assessments at all, it might be more economical to do a Dynamic Assessment on the pc and carry the pc through to the bitter end, because you’ll probably have to do one anyhow because they best understand their goals when a - Dynamic Assessment has been done. But I’m not making this mandatory, don’t you see, because that would be silly.

I would occasionally put out a projected action and if certain people that I knew to be hostile to us immediately embraced the idea, I didn’t do it. But if they fought the idea, I put it into effect at once.

Here’s the way you test - and this is just a test - here’s the way you test an old goal:

It was a beautiful method of screening promotional and release ideas.

The pc says, “Well, there was a goal found on me in upper south Amboy at one time by somebody there and so forth, and the goal was ‘to catch catfish.’”

There were about a dozen of them in England and there are about a dozen of them in the US. And if you heard from those people that your action was bad, then you heard from all twelve. See? Then you knew you’d done right. I didn’t know why this was.

And so you say, „Well, all right.“ And they want you to take a look at it. Well, of course you’d be wasting a lot of your time and their time and everybody else’s time if you didn’t take just a cursory look at the thing - just give it an Instructor’s check. See?

Well, now get a little further on this. The American Psychological Association is only furious with us for one reason. I found this out. I found it out from a government employed psychologist in Washington, DC, two or three or four years ago.

But that it didn’t fire means nothing! Got it? Even though somebody has checked this thing out with an Instructor’s check - you know, just done that Instructor’s check and gotten all the buttons rattled off and called the goals three times… You’d be surprised how often that will discover that the old goal was the right goal, see. Well, go ahead and list it - you know, checked out.

You realize we wont release our materials? Do you realize that they would hold on to them, too, if they had all our answers? That’s the kind of remarks that were being made to me. Auditing would have solved the situation.

But if it didn’t fire that doesn’t mean anything. You don’t discard that old goal just because it didn’t fire.

Now, we have several staunch enemies. By the way, what is auditing?

Now, you’re going to audit this pc for blood, see? You’re going to get right in there and pitch. You’re this pc’s auditor. You had better collect all of these goals that went out hard and goals that have been found on the pc and you better make a chronological list of these things, see? And if this pc has had quite a bit of auditing on the subject of, and going up the track a ways, you’re going to find a lot of pcs like this. Maybe this pc’s even had a Dynamic Assessment, something like that, see? You had better go over this list and prepcheck each one of those goals in rotation and see if you can’t get one to show.

Well, in this case it was just some information. All the information was available, but they evidently couldn’t pick up pieces of paper; they were too heavy or something.

Now, what if some other auditor has already prepchecked them all? Well, your action is to prepcheck them all.

All they wanted me to do, actually, was publish some of our ease histories in their national magazine in America. That’s all we really had to do. I didn’t care to make peace.

Now, it isn’t because the other auditor was no good but because these things dive out and recharge and do various things. It isn’t that goals can change or anything of that sort. It’s just that this is an interesting fact about it is, I have seen goals missed and then somebody - and last night was straightening out four or five eases that have been in the soup around here for some time. And I went down and the answers were there plain to see. They were contained in it. But in actual fact, one of these eases had several earlier - found goals.

So in actual fact, it was I who kept the game going just by being so disgusted with them in the past. They would have taken these things. Maybe they would have written snapping, snarping comments about them. Who cares?

Now, let me tell you something a pc will do. We can’t get the old goal to fire. We’re not going to waste a lot of time trying to get the old goal to fire let’s go ahead and do a Dynamic Assessment on the pc. You’re not going to spend fifteen hours trying to get an old goal to fire, you understand? Let’s do some auditing. This comes under the rule of giving the pc auditing, see? Let’s say you checked it out; it didn’t seem to check out. Instructor’s type check, see - it didn’t seem to check out. Don’t spend too much time on it because you may be grooming up this dead horse and polishing his shad - his saddle, you know, and wiping out his mouth and combing his mane and so forth. But he’s still dead, man. No matter what you do to him, he’s still dead.

But they would have taken them and published them with the full graphs and everything else in their periodicals. They just looked idiotic to me and I was busy. But that was auditing.

No, your proper action in this particular thing is you check out the goal the pc had, you check out - or goals; maybe there’s one or two - and you don’t get anything out of them: Let’s do a Dynamic Assessment.

Now, those people would undoubtedly rock slam on you or us, because those people are violently antipathetic to the principles in Scientology. Do you know what’s basically wrong with them? Well, you get somebody out here trying to pass a bulletin and you’ve got them on the meter you’ve been doing that a lot of that lately. If you cared to follow back what their basic disagreement on this line of approach was, you would discover it was something terribly fundamental.

Now, that’s going to make this pc shine. Because by doing a Dynamic Assessment, you tend to pull them out of the horrors and ARC breaks of having had their goal knocked in the head. You give them new hope. That old goal will now fire better because they can understand it - they never did before - it didn’t have any item to fire against. Don’t you see?

And you very often do this. And they pull up something fundamental some basic disagreement they have with this line of reasoning and the moment that that is pulled up, why, zzipp! And all of a sudden they can learn the bulletin and it’s all all right. Have you seen this? All right.

But you watch for this - watch your pc like a hawk: When pc do List 1, when pc do List 6 or List 5 or any other list after a Dynamic Assessment and if pc slide old goal into list anyplace, you take old goal and you prepcheck and you find that pc’s goal.

Now, let’s take this on a broader level. The psychologist has agreed 100 percent that man is an animal. That’s inherent in the practice of psychology. That’s Professor Wundt, 1879, Leipzig, Germany. It’s not one of my gags.

Got into an ARC break with a pc the other day. The pc - oh, this was quite - quite rowr - rowr, see. I did an assessment as to which list. I do things like this once in a while - read off all the goal list lines and see which one assesses and do that one first. You know? That’s only if List 6 didn’t have the goal on it. List 6 didn’t contain the goal so, I assessed - found out it was List 2. Naah! Pc - pc say List 5. Didn’t say List 5 on that little assessment. Of course, that isn’t a very valid assessment. Pc didn’t say List 5. I get assessment for List 2. I try do List 2. Pc ARC break; PE very upset. You think this is something intuitive, something deeply buried, something that was hidden from even the pc. Like hell it was!

Man is an animal. There is nothing there’s not even a nothing nothing in his head, see. He’s a collection of gray matter. And the gray matter squiggles this way and it makes him see and it squaggles that way and he hears, see. He’s a meat robot and there’s nothing else present.

Then it materializes that pc has slipped; old goal has been passed over onto List 5. That’s why pc want List 5 done. You get that? A thetan may look agreeable, but they never quit!

This is very interesting because there’s an earlier fundamental, earlier than this, which makes a liar out of them. It’s psyche ology: study of the human psyche. And all of their textbooks start out by having to tell you they don’t know anything about this and don’t have anything to do with their definition of their own word.

So, I just took the old goal and tried to make it live again and it did and that was that. All right. So that should be very fascinating to you, that there are symptoms and signs here. Pc keeps trying to shove this goal at you; you may think, „Well, this person’s just trying to sell this goal.“ That’s right!

You read their textbooks? „We have nothing to do with the psyche. And nobody knows anything about it anyhow and so we take off man is an animal!“ quick like, you know? And get in there.

But now, I tell you what makes some goals stay out. And this you must remember because there’s a double Prepcheck on all likely goals.

You got an earlier agreement that makes Scientology acceptable to them. Argue with them about the derivation of the word „psychology.“ Don’t ever argue with them about whether or not man is an animal.

There is another Prepcheck on likely goals, that is: „In self - auditing on the goal, to catch catfish, has anything been (listing buttons)?“ That’s the Prepcheck that has to precede your date Prepcheck, because any goal that’s been around, for let us say, six months, five months, two months, something like that, and the pc has known that goal - they self - audit it. Now, they may not just sit down and try to run all the buttons on it and run a full Prepcheck, but they do that too.

You’ll blow off their disagreement with us. They’ll say, „Man is an animal. He is not a spirit.“ When they say man is an animal, they mean a man has no spirit, so they have an awful time trying to study what we’re doing.

But they might self - audit it this way (and this is self - auditing although they don’t recognize it as such): They’re sitting out at a car stop. They’re looking at all the people go by, you see. And the goal is „to catch catfish.“ And they say, „No wonder I’m always so bored sitting at a car stop, because naturally there are no catfish around here; there are just people. Oh, that explains, then…“ (This is busy, busy, busy, you know?) „… that explains, then, why I’ve always been bored at sitting around car stops and why I’ve always thought there should be ponds on all properties.“ (Busy, busy, busy, busy, busy, busy, busy, busy.) „Well then, I mustn’t think about that anymore because I’m liable to suppress it - Now, I’d better not suppress the goal. Now, there you are. Well, there I’ve probably suppressed it. I wonder what the suppression was.“ (Busy, busy, busy, busy, busy.)

But that would be acceptable to them because it would be auditing. It would be clearing up something which was definitely antipathetic and antisurvival to themselves.

And sometimes they just simply knuckleheadedly sit down and try to prepcheck their own goal. And you can’t ever tell it is, because the pc has tremendous interest on this channel - in fact, on no other channel. And they can’t keep their attention off of it. And so you get this: „In self - auditing

The individual existed before the goal; just as the word „psychology“ existed before „man is an animal.“ See, the goal is later than the individual. The goal is less fundamental than the individual.

Now, if you want to keep polishing goals up you can add other things. „In listing, on the goal to catch catfish,“ is another heading.

Now, it is only the antipathetic goal and maybe you won’t be able to see why, but the person will have interpreted it this way, which gives you trouble in organizationally and in groups.

In other words, you’ve got several headings and approaches.

As I started to tell you a moment ago, there you’ll be in this co audit. Everything’s going along fine. Everything is very smooth. You’ve got everybody auditing and all of a sudden there’s a complete mutiny. Everything goes bzzt aauugh. And people are going to quit and they’re chopping each other up over in the corner and you can’t… Where the hell did this come from?

But the two that are absolutely vital to trim up an old goal and get the thing going well is „In self - auditing, on the goal ________“ and the other is „Since________ (month before goal was found), has anything - on the goal (so-and - so), has anything been suppressed?“ You have to run those two Prepchecks. You got it?

And you say, „Well, it’s that Grace and Agnes over there. They’re having a… And Mabel, Becky and so forth. IM just have to get ahold of them and pull their missed withholds.“

Now, there’s the essence of old goal finding. And you may beat your brains out - you may spend six, eight, ten hours trying to get some old goal to read, before you turn around and start doing a Dynamic Assessment. And then you do the Dynamic Assessment and then the old goal comes back in and reads. And you say, „Well, all I did was waste eight to ten hours of auditing.“ And I have now got through doing this now, often enough, that I don’t think it pays. I look back on the backtrack now and it’s getting kind of strewn with dead horses. I’ve had to learn what are the effective actions with regard to a goal. See?

Well, look, you can pull their missed withholds until you’re black in the face, because the biggest missed withhold is the goal. And one of the mad things you do is pull that person’s goal first, because that rewards the rebel. And you mustn’t reward the rebel.

The actualities of existence with regard to goals is the goals are tricky, Dynamic Assessments are tricky, the auditor first and foremost has to be a good auditor, he has to be lucky and he has to be clever. But we’ve got ways and means of making goals read that we never had before. There’s no excuse if you listing a goal right at the beginning of a listing session that is going one tick out of six calls - there’s no sense in that; you should know enough about auditing.

The thing you do is put them on a meter. And when you start enrolling a co audit, you put those people on the meter. And you ask those magic four questions.

And just to do a formal check is sometimes not enough; you have to steer the pc’s attention, which after all is the action of an auditor.

And if you get somebody who slams on any one of those four questions, don’t enroll them in the co audit. I don’t care how scarce you are in numbers. Don’t enroll them and also don’t throw them away. Now, you could convene a sub co audit if you wanted to. Supposing you collected four such people out of a unit of fifty. Well, you’ve got a sub co audit. In other words, hang the rock slam around their necks and they’re not going to cause any trouble because you’ve as ised it.

You say, „When was this goal found?“ This is before you get it prepchecked, and so forth. „When was this goal found?“

It isn’t even that they won’t stay with you. As a matter of fact they’re much more likely to stay with you than some people that don’t rock slam against you. Of course, all the time they’re with you, they’re trying to slit the tendon in the back of your ankle and so forth and slip the ground glass into the cornflakes. They somehow or other they’ll get this emergency call on the telephone they happen to be the only one present telephone rings, they get the emergency call. And it’s a call that you’d better come down to the hospital at once because of… And then somehow or another they’re intentions always seem to be so good!

„Oh, this goal was found in July - July of 1961.“

See, they actually can’t be detected, because a thetan is a clever beast. And they’ll write you a note and they’ll put it on the edge of the table closest to the sideboard. And then, as they walk out and put on their coat, it will brush off and fall down. And then they can show you that they did write you a note, but that it fell off.

„All right. All right, that goal was found then. Now, what session was it found in?“

You never can quite spot it. You’re left with this odd feeling of „it isn’t quite all right.“ And honest to Pete, you can go around getting ready to blow your brains out. As a matter of fact, you’ll start shooting down good people after a while if this keeps on and that’s just what they want. Now they’ve accomplished it they’ve started dissent.

„Gee, you know, I can’t recall.“

The rock slam. The rock slam will be dramatized by this person. lf you slip up and aren’t auditing this person very directly, then that rock slam is going to catch up with some part of your activity. You’ll find out that all of the silly things you say you’re going to do, they will agree with and make sure you do. And all of the smart things you were going to do that really should have been done, they’ll somehow or another dissuade you from doing them. But you’ll never quite be able to trace exactly how you were dissuaded or influenced. You’ll probably think it’s your own idea. These people are pretty weird.

Oh - oh - oh - oh - oh - oh - oh! Right there, right there - there’s a clue. That’s why this goal doesn’t - the principal reason why this goal doesn’t read. There’s something wrong with that session.

Let’s take a husband and a wife. The wife has always been good. She has always been perfectly good and she has gone along, she has done her job, she has done this and done that, and on the surface of the thing appears to be a little hero. And the husband, he’s gotten so he drinks quite a bit and he stays out late at night and he isn’t working. You get the two of them on an E Meter and you say to the wife, „Consider committing your overts against a husband,“ or John or Bill or whatever his name is, see, and see if she rock slams. And get a hold of the husband and put the husband on an E Meter and say: „Consider committing overts against a wife,“ Mabel whatever her name is.

Let’s go back and find that session. Well, how do we find that session? We can steer the pc´s attention to it overtly and say, „In that session that found the goal, was anything suppressed?“ See? And tiger drill it with that wording. Got it?

I don’t think anybody was ever as unlucky as to rock slam against his wife while his wife was also rock slamming against him. That would be catastrophe, man. The marriage isn’t likely to break up; they’re stuck but it would be pretty grim.

In other words, you can do almost anything with a Tiger Drill. You’re only culpable and you’re only in the soup if the goal isn’t reading. And you’re only ruining a pc if you utterly bury and lose his goal so it can never be found. So anything that recovers the goal is quite legal. Do you recognize that?

No, but one of those will rock slam against the other and the one who is rock slamming is the one who is doing the other one in. No matter how innocent it all looks, no matter how many motivators this person seems to have, that is the person. There’s no question about it. That is the person.

But I’ve been working for quite a while here, working on these drills. And I’ve given you the result of that work in tonight’s lecture and it should give you a very good show.

You watch that. You’ll be able when you’re called on for marriage consultation, things like that you’ll be able to use the principle there to great advantage. So she’s insisting that he get audited. She probably rock slams against Scientology too, see. That’ll mess you both up.

One of the things I must tell you is, you must never, never, never leave a goal lying around, that has been found or the pc thought was their goal, on and on and on and on through auditing. Because it’s like dragging buckets behind you when you’re trying to go to sea.

Now, you can stay out of an awful lot of trouble if you know these principles. You can handle a tremendous number of situations having to do with groups if you know these principles. And you can understand human behavior, knowing these principles, better than you ever have before. If you haven’t got your hands on the person’s dynamic, item and goal, see if you haven’t got your hands on it you can at least say, „Okay, that person has got a goal which is antipathetic to this other activity.“

Supposing, now, you had - the pc had six goals that were found on him or stayed in hard, see. And you found out it was goal number two that was the goal and you got it firing beautifully. Even though it’s a little bit distractive to the pc - you’ve explained to the pc why you’re doing this - you should also give a fast knockout to goal three, goal four, goal five and goal six. You understand? You should at least check those things out and get the principal dash and smash off of them. Because they’re going to hold you up. The pc’s going to be unable to do them well. Quite interesting.

Well, it doesn’t mean that all activities are good and it doesn’t mean that all the goals are bad, because goals are assistive in life as well as detrimental. They’ve given one an experiential track. They’ve done all kinds of wild things. Maybe a person can’t operate very well these days in the sphere of his goal. Maybe he has an awful lot of hard luck, but delete that goal and you’ve given him back all the effectiveness in that zone. You’ve given him back his whole experiential track and that’s not nothing. You’ve given him now the ability to carry it out.

A goal half - found and butchered up which isn’t the pc’s goal, stops the pc from having that ability. It slows him down.

Therefore, in an organization; in a clearing co audit; in a marital situation or in any other group, you have a sure fire way of testing the person who has to be straightened out or the person who is messing it up. It’s the person who rock slams when that group is mentioned. That’s the rock slammer. „Consider committing overts against.“ The magic words. You never saw this before, because we didn’t have the magic words, „Consider committing overts against.“ We just said, „the group,“ you see; we just said, „the dynamic,“ we just said, „the item.“ We never saw the rock slam and didn’t realize that the rock slam was a concatenation of accumulated overts.

Supposing the pc didn’t have the goal „to take the air,“ and yet it appeared on his list, see - it was on his list and somebody - it had stayed in hard and somebody tiger drilled it half out and then finally found out that it was „to be an aviator“ that was his goal. And we just utterly neglected this goal „to take the air. „ Well, for quite a while the pc will not be - enjoy going for walks.

Now, it isn’t just one bad act that makes a rock slammer. It’s trillions of years of bad acts that make a rock slam. So don’t treat a rock slam as something that is light. A rock slam is very meaningful. It takes a long time to make rock slams so the person has had a long time to do suppressions. So somehow, sometimes, you have to tiger drill the thing that you were testing before it’ll test. Yeah, you just give it an ordinary Tiger Drill, polish the thing up and say, „Consider committing overts against it,“ see.

You’ll have to get along and you’ll have to give it a couple of cuffs and smashes and because it isn’t his goal - and he knows it isn’t his goal because he’s got his goal - it goes out fairly rapidly, but it should elicit some of your attention. See? You’d say, „Well, let’s get rid of these other goals so they don’t hang up and hang us up.“ See? Just give them a box and - with Tiger Drill and they seem to be quite flat and everything’s fine, just leave them. Got it?

Let’s say we’re trying to test for an aircraft company so we say, „aircraft company,“ you know. Then tiger drill aircraft company: „On this company, has there been has anything been suppressed?“ you see, just tiger drill. Clean it up and see if the person rock slams. But the action I’m trying to bring to your attention is, is we are without enemies we are without enemies, basically. If we lose, everybody loses. And if we win, everybody wins. We’re in that weird situation. A situation that nobody has ever been in before. Therefore it’s a little bit hard to understand this situation. lf someone were to cave us in and knock us out, they would lose. Well, isn’t that weird? If someone is actually able to paralyze you as an auditor, then the person would lose. So let me give you the last one two of the Security Check.

All right. You’re not going to have any trouble getting goals to fire providing you’re willing to take the time to do so. But a one - minute cleanup to make the goal tick once out of five reads - that isn’t good enough. And if you can’t tiger drill this thing (in an ordinary Tiger Drill at the beginning of session) into reading, you can always prepcheck it into reading. And if you can’t prepcheck it well into reading, then by George, you’d better change the wording of your Prepcheck to „In self - auditing on the goal and so forth. And if that goal is reading a bit better then, then let’s move it up into the next category and say, „In listing on the goal ___ (so-and-so).“

It’s an overt act of an auditor not to pick up and pay attention to the rock slammer. Because he’s letting the person lose and making it possible then for everybody to lose, don’t you see? I’m not trying to hang you with an overt in that direction. But look at it that way rather than „This poor fellow is being victimized by us because he rock slams.“ No sir, he’ll only win if you do something about it. He’ll never win otherwise. Because he’s rock slamming, as far as were concerned, in the wrong direction.

And you’ve got many ways that you can handle this particular type of action, depending to a large extent on how the pc has handled the goal and how long the goal’s been found, and so forth.

And that’s what we have been facing and that’s what we’ve been fighting for the last twelve years. The few isolated rock slammers that misguidedly wish to knock us off because they confuse us with their items, dynamics and so forth. And don’t think that any amount of argument will make them go straight, nothing will make them go straight but finding the goal.

But getting a goal to read - getting a goal to read - after the goal has been found or getting an old goal to read adequately requires very slippy auditing. In fact, probably requires better auditing than finding a goal in some cases. The refinding of a goal is sometimes much more rugged than just finding one fresh because now you have all the hurdles.

Wherever you see trouble in Scientology, you are looking at the action of a rock slammer. Wherever you see an organization creaking, wherever you see pcs being dispersed or co audit being knocked to pieces somewhere, mixed up in that, there was a rock slammer.

I find out almost uniformly that pcs know what their goal was and knew at some time in the past what their goal was and were very ARC broke when they lost that goal. And if you know how to put that goal back together again - of course with the Prepchecks and the stuff I’ve been giving you in this lecture - you’ll find out your pc is very happy about the thing, and the goal will fire. People do know their own goals. I would never give a pc a goal who didn’t cognite on the fact that it was his goal. A lot of symptoms go along with this. Don’t you see?

The way to straighten it up is to isolate the rock slammers. Don’t refuse them auditing. Put them over in a little group, over to the side. Say, „Now, we’re going to take care of you, going to fix you up.“ Give them some hope, because they’re alive too, but don’t let them mess up the rest of it because then they never will get Clear.

I’ve revived now, a lot of old goals. I’m getting to be a specialist in it. I’m getting to be more of a specialist in the revivification of old goals than in the finding of new ones. Because people who come around to me - I busily work my brain to the bone, you see, finding the new goal, see. And I’ve just got my fingers on this new goal and we’ve just started to tiger drill it and boy, is it going out hard, when I look down the list four below it and I see the pc’s old goal has been slipped back onto the list! So I tiger drill out the goal that I’m working on and then I start working on the old goal and now that the Dynamic Assessment has been done, it now fires like crazy.

Now, there’s a sensible program for handling it. A sensible pattern as I think you will agree. That’s what’s been giving us our trouble. That’s the only thing that’s going to give you trouble. There you are. Of course, the greatest enemy of man is not man. The greatest enemy of man, of course, are goals which tend to condemn man and everybody when straightened out won’t.

This seems, in the last month, to have been my lot. - ‘ Pc after pc: Do a masterly job, absolutely clever, lucky, everything - just beautiful, you know. All set up for a brand - new goal. Obviously goal number one on the list. Perfect! It fits the pc utterly and then the pc says to you, „Do you know that that first goal is the exact ending of my old goal?“ Well, that’s fortune.

That’s a very interesting view and vista, isn’t it? So no matter how troublesome a situation looks, you look into it, you’ll find the rock slammer. You solve the situation by removing them, talk to the rest of it, bring in peace to the area. That is the formula and there’s something more powerful than any aberration and that’s auditing. And you’ve always got that as a weapon.

Well, there it is. There’s a lot to know, about goals and their behavior. This is actually the first time I’ve talked to you about it. I’ll be talking to you more about it but in actual fact I have given you in this lecture the bulk, if not all, the things known about it - this subject.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.
