Does Clearing Cancel the Need for Training? | Does Clearing Cancel the Need for Training? |
To answer the important question “Does Clearing cancel training?” all you need to do as an auditor is clear someone without training him and then say to him, “All right. Go out and clear people.” | To answer the important question “Does Clearing cancel training?” all you need to do as an auditor is clear someone without training him and then say to him, “All right.

Because Auditing skill is a discipline in living and a know-how of the parts of life which is in itself something new in the universe. Even OTs don’t have auditing skill since there have never been any auditors behind them. | Because Auditing skill is a discipline in living and a know-how of the parts of life which is in itself something new in the universe.

Now a Zulu uncleared has scant chance of becoming an advertising man. But a cleared Zulu would probably be able to become one rapidly. And there’s the difference. | Now a Zulu uncleared has scant chance of becoming an advertising man. But a cleared Zulu would probably be able to become one rapidly. And there’s the difference. |
Being clear gives one the potential of being and makes the being rather easy, and fun. Further, being cleared makes it possible to continue to be something. There’s nothing wrong with being clear. A person ought to be. The state is so valuable several hundreds of millions of people in the past 2,500 years have concentrated on nothing else. | Being clear gives one the potential of being and makes the being rather easy, and fun.

But how about getting clear and staying clear forever? The auditor alone with his data well learned could manage that. | But how about getting clear and staying clear forever? The auditor alone with his data well learned could manage that. |
Remember, you were clear once — trillions of years ago. Why didn’t you stay that way? Because the traps were well designed and you had no anatomy of traps. | Remember, you were clear once — trillions of years ago. Why didn’t you stay that way?

Well, Scientology does have the anatomy of the traps, the Axioms, the discipline and know-how necessary to handle and control the laws of the universe. Scientology is the data necessary to live. | Well, Scientology does have the anatomy of the traps, the Axioms, the discipline and know-how necessary to handle and control the laws of the universe.

If everyone were now to concentrate only on how to get clear and forget all about how to stay clear, we’d be back in the soup in a century. | If everyone were now to concentrate only on how to get clear and forget all about how to stay clear, we’d be back in the soup in a century. |
Oddly enough, the best time to study auditing is when you’re aberrated — when the thing looks impossible, when you can achieve subjective reality on the grimness of it. | Oddly enough, the best time to study auditing is when you’re aberrated — when the thing looks impossible, when you can achieve subjective reality on the grimness of it. |
The best things a person can do are to (1) get trained and (2) get cleared. Auditors will always be senior to clears. Always. That became very obvious in the 19th ACC. People who weren’t clear created clears. | The best things a person can do are to (1) get trained and (2) get cleared. Auditors will always be senior to clears. Always.

If a person gets cleared first, he can, of course, learn very rapidly how to be a good Scientologist. If he is to be a very good being he will be both a good auditor and a clear. That combination cannot be beaten. | If a person gets cleared first, he can, of course, learn very rapidly how to be a good Scientologist.

If we had only clears and no auditors we’d have another slump ahead. Scientology is not in the experience of anyone’s back track. It is itself. It is the one thing senior to life because it handles all factors of life. Scientology could not have happened earlier because there was not enough livingness to study. We have arrived near bottom. | If we had only clears and no auditors we’d have another slump ahead. Scientology is not in the experience of anyone’s back track. It is itself.

There are people getting cleared now all over the world. Just remember that you share the agreement of the society in which you live. You’ll have to be able to audit to skillfully handle aberrated persons. And it will take a lot of auditors to have a cleared society. | There are people getting cleared now all over the world.

Right now it’s all right to keep your eye on that first dynamic and get clear. You should. But when, suddenly, you find you’ve achieved clear, remember when I tell you this one thing: | Right now it’s all right to keep your eye on that first dynamic and get clear. You should.

You cannot stay clear unless you solve things by the equation of the optimum solution: The greatest good for the greatest number of dynamics. Failing to so solve things dug you in to where you were in the first place. | You cannot stay clear unless you solve things by the equation of the optimum solution: The greatest good for the greatest number of dynamics.

I look forward to seeing your bright, smiling face, clear or not, in the Academy or an ACC, or both, in D.C., or London, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa. A Clear world to be, needs you as a good and skilled Scientologist. | I look forward to seeing your bright, smiling face, clear or not, in the Academy or an ACC, or both, in D.C., or London, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa.

P.S. When I solve a case I always ask the pc for one unnamed favor. I’ve never called these favors in. The favor I tell you now for the first time: Whatever else you are, be a good Scientologist and help me clear these Earth people. | P.S. When I solve a case I always ask the pc for one unnamed favor.
