5. Reach & Withdraw MEST

6. Reach & Withdraw People

The Dynamics they cover are 3 (Groups) and 6 (Physical Universe).

Therefore, on these TRs involving more than 2 people (specifically TR People BB 1, BB 2, BB 3, BB 4) the Coach does not Ball-Bait. He is an additional person to those doing the drills as laid out in the Admin TR BTB. He stands or sits close to the Student and simply observes him. If the Bull-Baiters cause the Student to break his confront or flub in any way, the Coach flunks the Student and ensures that the Bull-Baiters flatten the exact button that caused the reaction.

They start off very gradiently and work hp to a high pitch of confront and handling by the student.

In short, he controls the Whole TR. It is up to him to see that the Student gets the gains that can be his from doing the TRs standardly. He coaches per the HCOB Coaching, seeing that the Student is given a series of wins on constantly toughening gradient.

They must be coached with full understanding of the need to give the student wins and must not run the student into overwhelm and out through the bottom.

Each TR is run to a win where the student is doing the drill comfortably and without effort and is happy about it.

Some of the beginning drills may appear flat already on some students but even so most will be aware of an increase in awareness, or just feel good about doing the drills.

On the later drills, remember to get the student to win on a gradient, getting tougher and tougher until he can confront and handle any randomity.

The Drills are run with Tone 40 (intention without reservation) which does not necessarily imply volume.

The Purpose of These TRs: To train the student to get compliance with, and complete a cycle of action on administrative actions and orders, in spite of the randomities, confusions, justifications, excuses, traps and insanities of the 3rd and 6th Dynamics, and to confront such comfortably while doing so.

Name: Confronting MEST.

Commands: “Confront that ____.” (names object).

Position: Student and Coach standing or sitting a comfortable distance apart.

Purpose: To accustom Student to confront MEST and to hold a position in relation to it. To be there and not do anything else but be there.

Training Stress: To teach Student to confront exactly what is indicated without vias and without additive gestures or emotional reactions. The Coach chooses a small object connected to the student’s post. Coach points to the object and gives command, “Confront that ______ (names object)”. Student does so. Coach makes no comments. As soon as Student is comfortable confronting the object with no reaction, the Coach acknowledges, chooses a new object and repeats the cycle. The Drill continues using gradiently larger objects for gradiently longer periods of time.

Flunks are given for breaks of confront, additive actions and reactions.

Pass when the Student can confront any object comfortably without reaction and has Good Indicators on the Drill.

Note: Do not flunk the Student if sudden GIs come in and he feels good about the Drill. This is a desired change.

Name: MEST Intention.

Commands: “Move that ______ (object)”.

Position: Student and Coach sitting or standing a comfortable distance apart.

Purpose: To train Student to deliver an order and intention concerning the control and handling of MEST.

Training Stress: To teach the Student that his own intention has something to do with the handling of MEST in his environment. The Student must deliver the command clearly and with sufficient intention to carry through and accomplish the moving of the MEST object by the Coach. The Coach does not Bull-Bait but only carries out the order if it is received clearly and with good intention. A selection of objects from the student’s post is used. The Student acks the Coach for carrying out the command.

Flunks are given for failure to get the object moved, failure to confront the action or failure to confront the MEST involved.

Commands: None. Coach originates handling of MEST.

Position: Student and Coach standing or sitting a comfortable distance apart.

Purpose: To train Student to recognize, accept and thoroughly acknowledge the completion of an action in the MEST universe.

The Coach originates a cycle of action such as giving the Student a small object, moving an object to another location or picking up an object to look at. Student acknowledges the action when it is complete. Student may do anything at first to get his acknowledgement across but gradiently is smoothed out until he can end cycle effortlessly.

Coach flunks for failure to recognize when an action is complete, failure to freely accept the action and failure to end the cycle with good intention.

Position: Student and Coach standing or sitting a comfortable distance apart.

Purpose: To train the Student to not give up but to continue his intention to complete a cycle of action in the physical universe. To do each cycle in a new unit of time and not as a blur with other cycles.

Training Stress: To teach the Student not to be thrown off and not to Q & A if he doesn’t get immediate compliance to his command, and to keep on until he does get the cycle of action completed in the physical universe.

The Coach may stop complying with the cycle of action at any point and hold the cycle frozen at that point. The Student must repeat the last given command until he gets the cycle of action started again and follow it through to completion. No verbal Bull-Baiting or physical originations by Coach.

Flunks are given for poor intentions, failure to repeat the exact command, failure to confront the MEST or confront and get the cycle of action completed in the physical universe.

Pass when the Student can do the drill comfortably and easily.

Name: MEST Cycle Alter-Is.

Commands: Same as MEST 3.

Position: Student and Coach standing or sitting a comfortable distance apart.

Purpose: To train the Student to get his intended cycle of action carried out in the physical universe in spite of counter-intention and alter-is and to distinguish between a genuine attempt to comply and a deliberate non-compliance or alter-is.

Training Stress: To teach Student not to be startled or thrown off and not to give up or Q & A with non-compliance, inaccurate or incompetent attempts to complete cycles of action in the physical universe. The Drill is the same as TR MEST 3 with the addition that the Coach may deliberately perform the wrong action at any time or may attempt to pass the object to the Student when he has not asked for it. The Student repeats the order whenever the Coach freezes the cycle of action or deliberately does a wrong command. The Student acknowledges the Coach and repeats the order when the Coach does the command almost correctly or attempts to hand the objects to the Student when it is not so ordered.

Flunks are given as in MEST TR 3 and also for acknowledging a deliberate non-compliance or alter-is and for failing to acknowledge a genuine attempt at compliance and eventual completion. If the Student accepts the object on the Coach’s origination it is also a flunk.
