February 10th, 1954. There's a great deal of material that I have given you in the last five and a half weeks, a great deal of it, and you'll find this material dropping into line, little by little, as you work upon people.

We’ve had a process here which may or may not give you some idea of what’s going on.

There are some processes which are horrible to do and which are tremendously effective. I heard yesterday, one of you saying that, "You, of course, are using us as experimental subjects." No, it's true. The material I have been giving you up to date is not experimental material. It's long since passed out of that stage. However, there is a process which works individually excellently, which I have never before used on a group, and I'm going to use that process on this group this morning. We have here a great dearth of emergency auditors, right this minute. (laughter) Well, I tell you what. If you find yourself suddenly going off the deep end and into never-never land, you just take your chair into the front room in there, the one that has the carpet in it, and sit down and hold the two back anchor points of the room, until you feel you're back to battery. OK? If you do that? Alright.

Do you feel any better or any worse or ... ?

We'll just get down to business here on this process. Alright. You're aware of beingness processes, aren't you, you be this and be that and so forth, and this takes off the automaticity. Alright.

Audience: [various responses] Wonderful.

I want you to BE the MEST universe. Just that. Now let's be the MEST universe. Let's be the MEST universe.

Well, all right.

Now let's be the MEST universe by spreading infinite distance of blackness in all directions, and being that infinite distance of blackness in all directions. Just be that blackness. And just be it, that's all there is to it. Now let's sit there and be that blackness, infinite distance of blackness in all directions, and sit there and don't think. Come on, let's just be it, and sit there and don't think. Find yourself wandering off from beingness, let's just be this infinite distance of blackness. Infinite space in all directions, all black. Now all black in all directions, just be that. Don't be a point putting blackness in all directions, just be the blackness in all directions. Alright.

Well, we’re just going to continue this type of process right now. Don’t worry about your notes. Don’t worry about your notes.

Now let's be the blackness in all directions, and embrace a point, you, a thetan. Now let's put you, a thetan, into the middle of all this blackness and as the blackness, just dispassionately communicate at it and pound at it, reducing it in size and putting out the light. Be this infinite blackness now, and have this point in the middle of the infinite blackness, and you're just pounding at it with blackness until you put out its light. And when you put out its light, then pound it some more. Pound it from all directions.

All right. Now we’re going to run this process just a little tougher. Just a little tougher.

Just be infinite blackness now, not worry about anything else. Let's not just sit there and LOOK at infinite blackness, the hell with that. Let's BE the infinite blackness. Now let's throw away that infinite blackness, and be another infinite blackness, MEST universe. Same thing. Be it again. Now have a point of light arrive in it and put its light out by pounding it from all directions, making it small and tiny. Now sweep that aside.

We’re going to use, here, the component parts of the universe as I described them to you after the first lecture: white clouds, black clouds, white densities, black densities, vacuums, white spaces or light spaces and dark spaces. If you’re not able to get the infinite part of these distances, why, that’s all right, get as much of it as you can. In view of the fact that there’s-infinity itself is a thought concept rather than an actuality, it’s just whether or not you can run this thought concept.

And be infinite blackness again, infinite blackness, and have a small dot of light arrive in the middle of the infinite blackness, and have the dot of light move to the right. And you move as infinite blackness to the right, so that it can't move out of you. Now have it move to the left and you move, as infinite blackness, to the left, so that it can't move out of you. Now have it move up and you as infinite blackness move up, so that it can't move out of you. And get this dot of light being you, a thetan, but YOU'RE the infinite blackness right now. Get it getting very discouraged because it can't move out of you, infinite blackness. Alright. Throw that away.

All right. Now we’re going to start in this way.

And be infinite blackness in all directions, and sit there and don't think. Be infinite blackness in all directions, just sit there and don't think. Be the MEST universe now, infinite blackness in all directions, and just sit there. Alright. Let's throw that away.

I want you to be way out someplace if you can, way out someplace. If you can’t, be right where you are. And start picking out items in the environment which tell where other items are. One item which tells where some other item is and so forth.

Now let's be infinite blackness in all directions, and have a dot of light, you, a thetan, arrive in the middle of the infinite blackness, and then you just communicate at it to reduce it down to nothing. Now set that aside and be infinite blackness again. Have you, a thetan, arrive in the middle, now this time just dispassionately, indifferently, smash it down to nothing, so that it can't radiate and so that it won't exist anymore. Now one after the other, similarly handle NEW tiny spots of light. And fix them, each one, immobile, so that it cannot move. Alright. Set this aside.

Now pick out items which particularly demark spaces and tell where the space is.

And now stretch, in all directions, as infinite blackness, and wait hopefully to trap and immobilize any and all dots of light which enter you. Take any pleasure you may feel in doing this. Alright. Set that aside.

And now items which tell where items are.

And now press as infinitely black in all directions, and have a dot of light enter you and take pleasure in the fact that you gradually, remorselessly crush all of its life, hopes and dreams. Be completely remorseless about it. Now set that aside.

And now items which tell where the center of the Earth is.

And let's mock ourselves up as the IDEAL TRAP. The ideal trap, and see the small dot of light and put it out. Get the emotions, if any, of the trap. And one after the other, have small dots of light enter and you put them out. Put them out forever and very finally. Alright. Set that aside.

Come on, get some more items that tell where the center of the Earth is so that you can get these various things agreeing on where the center of the Earth is.

And now again, be a trap of infinite distance, infinitely black, and have as your sole purpose in life, getting something lost. Now throw that away.

Some more items that tell where the center of the Earth is.

And this time, be a trap and figure out NEW designs as to how you can get something more THOROUGHLY lost, such as a thetan, bright, guileless and innocent. Alright. Set that aside.

And now some items that tell where the center of the Sun is.

And again, be a trap of infinite distances and infinite blackness, and sit there and wait for a little dot of light to make a mistake so that you can close upon it. Now wait for it to make a mistake so that you can punish it. Just sit there and wait, it'll make a mistake, you be sure and certain about it. Now set that aside.

If that is baffling, that is what is baffling in this universe. Don’t worry about it. Just examine it as a baffler. The geometry of spheres is based on a confusion.

And just be an infinite distance of blackness in ALL directions, and just sit there and don't think. An infinite area of blackness, and sit there and don't think. Alright. Set that aside, now.

Let’s get more items that tell where the center of the Sun is.

A little different now. Mock yourself up as a solid rock, and have a thetan hit you and feel some satisfaction in having stopped him, cold. And then rapidly, one after the other, have thetans hit you. You feel real good about it. Utterly dispassionate about it. Alright.

And let’s get centers of things telling where the centers of things are.

Now sit there now as a solid rock, and get a sort of a suction action, a pull-in action, so that any thetan anywhere around cannot help but close in and hit you. Be gravitic, in other words. Set that aside now.

And now the centers of things telling where spaces are.

And be another solid rock and be very gravitic. And be very sure that because you are sitting there, thetans are going to hit you sooner or later, and stick, and never be able to get off of you. Get the enormous power of drag-in which you have, you can just pull them in, and compel their attention to you. Alright. Put that aside.

And now items telling where items are.

And let's be an even MORE solid and dense rock that just waits for thetans to pass by so that they will stick, and hurt themselves. And now get a little pleasure out of the fact that it's going to hurt them REAL bad. And now, just by the fact that they're sticking to you, get the fact that this puts their life out. Set that aside.

And now spaces telling where spaces are.

And be a solid rock again, and by pulling in, impede the motion of thetans. Get them to pull against you so that they snap in on you, and put their life out on you. And get whatever emotion you feel you should have as a rock which is out to get thetans. Alright. Now set that aside.

Now let’s mock-up a space designed to trap somebody.

And be infinite blackness in all directions for the sole purpose to get thetans to come in, and get very worried and anxious about being lost, and so beat themselves out in just the distance only, by distance alone just beat themselves to pieces. And get this as a solid mission in life. A mission, to be infinite blackness, and to worry and make anxious, thetans. OK. Set that aside.

Now some objects. Mock-up some objects designed to trap somebody.

And now just BE the MEST universe as you now conceive it. Be IT, its personality, its mission and purpose, waiting for you, a thetan. Or doing things to you, a thetan, just be the MEST universe. Just be it some more, be the MEST universe now, with the mission of damping the life out of you, a thetan. Only you're very detached from you, a thetan. OK. Set that aside, set that aside.

Now let’s be a very large space filled full of random motions-beams and rays and things going through it-and have the sole intention of driving this little spot of light crazy.

And be a sun which pushes out, yet pulls in, waiting for a thetan to get trapped into it. Now get the emotion you should have at the good work you were doing of making all life extinct. And get what you would do if there were any slight rebellion turned up, you'd just fry something to a crisp. Alright. Set that aside.

All right. Let’s put that aside. And be another very large space filled full of light with random motions in it and have you, a personality, be a dot of light in it, you know.

And be a sun again, ready to pound anything to a crisp that dare be alive around you. Now be very antipathetic toward life. You just don't like it. It moves, it's inventive. And get you, a thetan, out there being, moving, be the sun, and get a critical eye on you, a thetan. And get your plans as to what you're going to do to this thetan, how you're going to fool it. Alright. Set that aside.

And now you, the space, drive this little dot of light utterly mad. And you, the space, be coldly calculating about it.

Now be infinite blackness in all directions, infinite blackness. Have you, a thetan, move into the infinite blackness, real bright, and you just get it lost and put its light out, all the time communicating at it obsessively from all directions, pounding it down to nothing. No matter where it turns, you're going to pound at it, dispassionately, remorselessly, forever. Now be infinite blackness in all directions, granular or otherwise, however it may seem to you you should be, and have distance into which things could get lost utterly, and be unable to locate themselves. Get as your main goal the discouragement of any life, motion, livingness, ideas, thoughts, dreams, hopes. Set that aside.

Set that aside and do it again.

And again, be infinite blackness, this time with some tiny lures in it, you know, spots of light and so forth, so as to bring things into it, and then get them lost. And get you, a thetan, in the middle of all of this blackness, and get what you as the blackness are going to do to this thetan. And how STUPID it is of the thetan to resist. Now set that aside.

Let’s be entirely dispassionate about driving this little dot of light crazy.

And be infinite blackness, crouched, waiting, remorseless, and have you, a thetan, appear, and you just pound its life out by communicating with it, all the time, forever. Now get the various tricks which you would have to employ to prevent its escape. And get how righteous and what a good work this is on your part as infinite blackness. Alright. Set that aside.

Hit it in enough random ways, unexpectedly, places it-where it will be surprised the most.

And again, be infinite blackness, but this time have little tiny islands in you where a thetan can dream up just enough hope so that the hope can be crushed out. And get your regard for life in general, as this infinite blackness. And your regard for you, this little dot of light, in particular. Alright. Set that aside.

Okay. Now be a large white space-a large white space filled full of mists and have a dot of light lost in you somewhere and you move around carefully so that it can’t get outside of you.

And again, be infinite blackness, with a complete certainty of victory over this little dot of light, a thetan. OK. Set that aside.

Now get, as your sole emotionless intention, that it will never escape and look at its frantic efforts and be completely dispassionate about it.

And now again, be huge unlimited blackness, enclosing this tiny little hopeless helpless speck, you, a thetan, and get how utterly remorseless you are and what a pleasure this gives you to be that. Alright. Set that aside.

All right. Throw that aside. And be that white space again. Get you, this little dot of light, lost and keep it lost.

And be a black expanse. And have you, a thetan, come into it, and you as a black expanse move in any direction the thetan moves, so as to make sure it gets nowhere. Alright. Set that aside.

Now let’s be a black vacuum. A black vacuum. And get a little dot of light coming near us and just go slurp and take everything away from it. And another little dot of light and take everything away from it. And another little dot of light and take everything away from it.

And be an enormous black expanse, and just be unchangingly remorseless. And have a little dot of light appear in you, and now punish it for communicating. YOY are the one who's going to communicate, IT's not supposed to communicate. Pound it so it won't. OK. Set that aside.

Be the vacuum and look at the dot of light.

And now be infinite mass. Infinite mass in all directions. But be mass embracing a tiny dot of light, a thetan, and just crush it on down to nothing. Now if, as you're doing this, people slip in and out, just skip 'em. You may start recognizing the people dramatize this. Just skip the people and be the universe, recognizing the people, simply copy it, we're not interested in people. Alright. Set that aside.

Now throw that aside. And be another vacuum. Be another vacuum and every time a little dot of light comes nearby, pull it dry of all of its energy and power.

And be infinite black mass now. And a little dot of light innocently enter in, and just get all the things you can do to it. And do 'em. Alright. Set that aside.

Now put that aside. And be a vacuum again. A black vacuum. And get little dots of light coming near and just pull all the energy away from them. And look at this little dot of light, you a thetan, each time, as a source of great amusement to you.

And again, be an infinite mass of ANY color, white or black, whatever color seems to you the one it should be. Have a dot of light enter in, and get how you must convince it that it cannot escape, and do those things that you must do so that this dot of light cannot escape. Now get as your mission, making it afraid. Now get as your mission, making it insane, so that you can then check it some more. OK. Set that aside.

Okay. Now throw aside any accumulation of energy you have in these little dots of light, as not worth having.

Now be god as an infinite blackness, concentrated upon you, a thetan. Get how all powerful and how out-swelling you are, concentrated upon you, a thetan. Get what your regard for this thetan is. Now be very saintly as you crush its life out, and trap it forever. Oh, be saintly about it. OK.

And now be a large black dense mass, very dense, and dispassionately sit there and pull litde dots of light to you and pin them down on you and turn them black.

Be an infinite black expanse, filled with galaxies and other things, and just sit there, not liking life, but not thinking. Just sit there as this vast expanse, not liking life but not thinking. Alright. Sweep that aside.

Throw that aside. And be another black dense mass and have you, a thetan, come along, see this large dense mass. And you, the dense mass, one after the other, pin these dots of light down and turn them black and just suck them dry to a cinder. And get how forever your intentions are.

And be ANOTHER infinite expanse. And sit there and don't think. OK. Sweep that aside.

Now pull some spaceships down on yourself. Make each one of them crash and be very remorseless about it, just that much more mass.

And be a rock. Be a BIG one, planetary size. And have a terrific drag-in, so that any bit of light that comes by cannot help but be pulled in on you and stick. And get as your mission, the accumulation of these bits of light and immobilizing them. Pull them in, one after the other now, stick'em. And get as your mission, never to let them go. Alright. Set that aside.

Okay. Put that aside. And be a large, huge black cloud. A huge black cloud. And have little dots of light sail into you and get them lost and turn them black.

And be this enormous black expanse, space in all directions, have a dot of light appear in you and when it moves to the right you move to the right. When it moves to the left you move to the left. And so on and so on, so that it cannot escape. And get it getting smaller and smaller, more and more hopeless, and be very satisfied about this as you do it. Alright. Set that aside.

And get how long and forever you can wait, till more show up.

And now be an infinite black expanse with the sole mission of damping out and extinguishing any energy put out by that small dot of light, you, a thetan. The mission of extinguishing any energy output that it has. Be this expanse with that single mission. Alright. Set that aside.

Okay. Put that aside.

And be an infinite universe with the sole mission of convincing you, a thetan, that you must not touch any part of you, a universe. Be the universe with a mission that you must convince this thetan it must not touch any part of you. Alright. Set that aside.

And be a very dense mass of white particles-fryingly hot. And have little dots of light come up and you just be very snide about the fact they can’t put out this much juice. Just ruin each one of them.

And be any concept you may have of the MEST universe, but be it. And then regard you, a thetan. Alright. Set that aside.

Now put that aside.

And be a huge, black expanse, and sit there and don't think. OK. Now set that aside.

And just be an area, anything you can conceive of, of the mest universe, with this sole thought: “You’d be all right if little bits of light didn’t keep appearing.” And get as your mission, extinguishing them.

And be a planet, thirsty, hungry, pulling in any life that you can get, cravenly. Now be the center of that planet, unable to locate yourself because you can't tell which way is up. Now be the planet, very happy that the center cannot locate where it is or what it's doing. OK.

Put that aside now and do it again.

Now let's look up and get how the right-hand front corner upper of the room, right-hand front upper corner of the room, locates the upper front left-hand corner of the room. How the front of the room tells where the back of the room is. Where the left wall of the room tells where the right wall is. How this house tells where the house next door is. How the street tells where this house is. How the town tells where the street is. How Earth tells where the town is. How the perimeter of Earth, the periphery of Earth tells where the center of Earth is. Where the center of Earth tells where the center of the sun is. How your head tells where your feet are. How the back of your head tells where the front of your head is. Alright.

Now put that aside. And be a beautiful place, very expansive, very pretty, very beautiful. And get how deceptive you are in being that and just sit there and wait for a bit of life to show up, so that you can engulf it and extinguish it forever.

Now let's check off some places that you're not pulling in perceptions on. Let's check off some objects which are not, at this moment, victimizing you. Now let's check off some masses and terminals which are not sitting against your chest. Get some more of them that you're sure aren't sitting against your chest. Get some certainty on this one. Get at least one that you're absolutely sure isn't against the front of your chest. And then some more of them. Now let's get some things which are not giving you orders. Now let's check off some things that aren't naming you or calling your name out. Now let's check off some people who aren't going to murder you in the next thirty seconds. And now some terminals or masses which are not immediately against your chest, as a body of course. Now let's check off some things you do not, at this moment, have to do. And some houses or rooms in which you are not at this moment trapped. And some places where you are not. Now let's find two pieces of MEST, or the two back corners of the room, and hold onto them, and sit there and don't think. OK.

Okay. Put that aside.

Now let's recall something that's real. A time when you were in good communication. A time when you felt some affinity for something. Locate something real in the environment, reach for it and withdraw from it. Find something else that's real, reach for it and withdraw from it. Find the floor beneath your feet. OK.

And now be a church. Be a church with beautiful serenity waiting for little dots of light to come in, so that you can extinguish them forever. Remember to be beautifully serene about it.

Put that aside. And be another church, be beautifully serene, wait for these little dots of light to come in, so that you can lie to them and knock them out forever.

Okay. Now put that aside. And be a spaceship, so that you can pull dots of light into you and extinguish them and bestialize them.

All right. Put that aside. And be a stove and just sit there red-hot, waiting for a baby to touch you.

Get a baby to touch you and be very satisfied.

Okay. Put that aside.

And be an icy-cold day. And have a little dot of light come along, pull all the heat out of it and immobilize it and crush it forever.

Okay. Now be infinite space and pretend to be very calm, but be filled with treachery and wait for dots of life to come in, so that you can kill them.

Now get them coming in and you kill each one as it comes in, quietly and remorselessly.

Put that aside and be infinite black, inky-black space with the entire mission of getting something utterly lost so as to convince it, it will never escape. And then have this thing, you a thetan, come in one after the other.

Okay. Now put that aside. And be icy-cold black space, waiting for dots of warmth to come in, so that you can suck them dry.

Now be God and get your regard for this thing, your name, a thetan.

Now be an infinite black space. Have a dot of light come in. And when it tries to go to the right, you move to the right. If it tries to go to the left, you move to the left. Just never let it get anywhere.

Okay. Now be the mest universe and calculate, very dispassionately, exactly how you’re going to extinguish the memory of something forever.

And get very calculating now, very logical about it.

Now use these methods on you, a thetan.

Okay. Now be way up somewhere and pick out several objects in the environment or look around the environment where you are and pick out several objects that tell you where other objects are.

Let’s pick out some outsides of objects, now, that tell you where the centers are. Now let’s be a large and infinite mass, now-a large and infinite mass that wants to get more dense.

Okay. Let’s set that aside and be another one.

And set that aside and be another one.

Okay. Set that aside.

Now be a theta trap. Anything you can conceive of as a theta trap. And go about the business of thoroughly and dispassionately immobilizing and knocking the light out of any piece of life that comes near you.

Okay. Set that aside and be another theta trap.

Let’s get real efficient now.

Now let’s get the emotion of the thetans which you’re trapping.

And just be remorseless about them.

Let’s set that aside and be another theta trap.

Set that aside and be another theta trap and remorselessly go about the business of trapping thetans.

Now set that aside. And be another theta trap, but this time a very aesthetic one, so a thetan just never would suspect. Go about the business of trapping them.

And see if you can’t get the incoming thetans being a little bit terrified and horrified-not that you care.

Okay. Set that aside and be another theta trap-of any kind. And let’s be real good about trapping thetans and keeping them forever.

Okay. Set that aside. And let’s be the mest universe, now, and calculatingly entomb thetan after thetan and get them right down to electron size as fast as possible.

All right. Now let’s be a black vacuum and every time a little thetan comes by, let’s pull all the energy out of him, pull all of his pretty mock-ups out of him, pull everything out of him, just slurp and not even feel any satisfaction from it.

Now set that aside and do it again.

Now let’s set that one aside and be a black vacuum with infinite appetite and let’s pull dry every bit of life that comes near, so as to disenfranchise it utterly. A tremendous appetite, with no satisfaction.

Okay. Let’s set that aside and let’s be an infinite space filled with random motion, so that any bit of life that comes in and tries to radiate, will Simply be knocked back instantly.

Now prove it to it that this is the condition by having it move around and you knock it out. And then just get another one and prove it to it. And another one and prove it to it. And another one and prove it to it. It can’t go anyplace and communicate without being communicated at so hard that it will stop instantly and won’t function. Wreck it.

Okay. Now let’s get the wickedest person that you know and let’s get you out in front-be the wickedest person-and give you, out in front, your just deserts.

Okay. Be a huge expanse of the mest universe and give you, a thetan, your just deserts.

Okay. Put that aside and be a huge expanse of the mest universe and convince you, a thetan, that you mustn’t touch anything.

Now set that aside. And you be a big section of the mest universe and convince you, a thetan, that if you communicate, you will be punished.

Okay. Now be a jail cell, enclosing you, a thetan.

And set that aside and do it again.

And set that aside and do it again.

And set that aside and do it again.

And set that aside and do it again.

Be a jail, now, and enclose you, a thetan.

And get how dispassionate you are about any terror you, a thetan, may feel.

Set it aside and do it again.

Set it aside and do it again.

Set it aside and do it again. And this time, be very dispassionate about the travails of you, a thetan. And about all other thetans. And be this cell, now.

Now get how the horror, the pleading, the guilts of these various things that come into you, a jail cell, mitigate your activity against them, not one bit.

Trap them real good.

All right. Set that aside. Be a parent and lock a child in a dark room. And set that aside. And be a parent and lock a child in a dark room. And set that aside. And be a parent. And lock a child in a dark closet. Now be a parent and reprimand a child for communicating.

Set that aside. And do it again.

And set that aside and do it again.

Now be the mest universe and get a thetan entrapped and punish it for communicating.

Now set that aside. And be the mest universe and get very hopeful that the next thetan that comes in will try to communicate, so you can do something to it.

And go ahead and do it.

Set that aside and do it again, now, to thetan after thetan.

Okay. Now be way up somewhere.

Way up somewhere and get some places you are not.

Some more places you are not.

Now let’s check off some conditions you are not in.

Particularly, now, some conditions your body is not in.

All right. Now let’s check off some things-some things which are not just about to happen to you.

And now check off some things which you have not, just this moment, lost.

Now check off some things which are not, just this moment, being put into you.

And let’s look around the environment and find where some of the things tell where other things are.

All right. Now- let’s look at an object and look straight through it.

And another object and look straight through it.

And another one and look through it.

And another one and look through it.

And let’s mock-up a guiding light.

Many of them. Get them real bright.

Lots of them.

Do what you please with those. Now mock-up a home planet.

Lots of those.

Do what you please with those. Now mock-up a home sun.

Now lots of those.

And do what you please with those.

Now let’s you mock-up, now, jw in an “acceptable to you” condition.

And let’s do that again. Mock-up you in an acceptable condition, to you.

Now, to the rest of the human race.

Now an acceptable condition to you.

And an acceptable condition to the rest of the human race.

And an acceptable condition to you.

And to the rest of the human race.

And now an acceptable condition to you.

And an acceptable condition to other thetans.

An acceptable condition to you.

And an acceptable condition to other thetans.

And just continue to do that, back and forth.

Let’s see if we can’t get some improvement in the acceptability to you, now.

And some improvement in acceptability to other thetans.

Back and forth, one, then the other.

Back and forth, acceptable condition to you.

You in an acceptable condition to you.

You in an acceptable condition to other thetans.

Now let’s mock-up some thetans in an acceptable condition to you.

To themselves.

To you. And to themselves. To you. And to themselves.

Now let’s mock you up full of life, vim and vitality.

And do it again. And do it again. And do it again. And do it again. And do it again.

And some more. And some more. And some more. And some more. And some more.

Let’s mock you up full of life, vim and vitality, now. Some more. And some more. And some more. And some more. And some more.

And some more. And some more. And some more. And some more. And some more.

And some more. And some more. And some more.

Okay. Let’s be way up above the environment and duplicate it.

And duplicate it. And duplicate it. And duplicate it. And duplicate it. And duplicate it. And duplicate it. Many, many times.

Okay. Now let’s mock you up with a robot’s body-you know, push buttons and so forth. And pretend you’ve just exteriorized from it. And then duplicate it and duplicate it and duplicate it and duplicate it and duplicate it.

Get some more duplicates of it.
