GROUP PROCESSING: PRESENT TIME

A group processing session given by L. Ron Hubbard on the 2 February 1955

Do you realize that I am absolved from all responsibility of any consequences which may occur, because I did tell you that this is very experimental and probably wouldn't do anything for you and so forth, and you came back anyway, so you see it's on your heads.

So what we're going to do now are just some - few little minor exercises in alertness.

And if you follow the auditing commands which I give, why, you'll find it very, very simple. And if you don't follow them, but just sit there (now let me repeat that, some people miss that almost always on these Wednesday nights) if you just sit there and say, "Well, that's not for me," you know, and you sit there, tomorrow - tomorrow you've-"! don't know quite what happened." Now that happens to be a fact.

He isn't here tonight, so I can tell a story. My own father - you know how fathers are - my own father sat at a congress we had over at the Little Theater last December, and he omitted doing about an hour's processing. He sat there and he got interested in watching the people and watching me and so forth, and he just omitted doing this. And he didn't come next day to the congress because he had such a bad cold. And he could not connect this bad cold which he had with having sat there not doing the processes, but saying, "Oh, well," you know, "don't have to worry about it."

So let's just follow these through as best you can, and if you miss some of them, that's all right, we can always go back and sweep them up. And you will find these exercises very, very simple.

Now, if you have a pain or something like that - the pain turns on or you get a pain in your eyes, as occasionally once in a great while happens, why, don't just cease and desist, you see, from doing the process. What turned it on will turn it off. And if you get a sudden pain in your head or something like that, don't worry about it, just keep on doing the process and the pain will undoubtedly go away. We're not worried about your psychosomatic ills. What we're mainly concerned with is your alertness with this thing called present time, so let's take a look at it.Where is present time?
