The Purpose of Ethics is
TO REMOVE COUNTER INTENTIONS FROM THE ENVIRONMENT.
And having accomplished that the purpose becomes
TO REMOVE OTHER INTENTIONEDNESS FROM THE ENVIRONMENT.
Thus progress can be made by all.
Many mechanisms can exist to mask a counter intention.
One has an intention to expand the org. An "expert" says it is difficult as "The building society....". The impulse is to then handle the problem presented by the "expert", whereas the correct ETHICS action is to remove his Counter Intentionedness or Other Intentionedness. If he were an EXPERT he would simply say "OK. I'll handlemy end of the expansion".
There are many ways to handle counter and other intentionedness.
There is a fine line between Ethics and Tech.
The point where a thetan goes mad is very exact. It is the point where he begins to obsessively stop something. From this the effort becomes generalized and he begins to stop lots of other things. When this includes anyone who or anything that would help him as well as those people and things that help, the being is suppressive. His intentions counter any other intention, particularly good intentions.
Other intentionedness comes from unawareness or dispersal. By removing things which disperses others. Offering bottled medicine to cure "the blues" is a direct distraction. It is the purveyor of the distraction who is the target.
The person who enters on Scn groups to then sell other-answer is of course an enemy.
However we go about accomplishing the above is the action of Ethics. The above is the purpose.
