Note: This Procedure is to be done on every HGC pc, every course student of every course as a pc, as early as possible and definitely before Prepchecking or CCHs. Done correctly it will end the no- results or slow result case and guarantee faster gain to the fast case. ALL Cases must have this done at once.

I have now made a breakthrough on this. It is, I’m afraid I have to tell you, the breakthrough. You could straighten up the head of the Medical Association with it, it’s that powerful. It undercuts all the reasons why. It must be done on all students. And also every HGC pc.

Unfortunately the solution is similar to a Routine 3 process, but there’s nothing for it but HPAs/HCAs must learn the steps in this HCO Bulletin if we are to survive. For these skills encompass more than 50% of the cases, in some areas up to 80%. And these will clear slowly or not at all unless this first step is taken first. Even a Problems Intensive will fail on about 30% of these cases.

Suddenly it becomes of vital technical interest whether a person is any variety ofRock Slammer or not. Before, it and other security measures were only of administrative interest. Now it is a question of whether or not the case will ever improve.

The Routine 2-12 method of discharging the influence of a Rock Slamming Item is actually taken from 3GA Criss Cross (3GAXX), and is a specialized routine from Routine 3. We will, however, since it does not touch goals, designate it as Routine 2.

This routine will have to be learned by all HPAs/HCAs and used by all staff Auditors. It does not include clearing. It includes only Item Assessment. By labelling it Routine 2 it comes within the reach of all trained auditors.

1. Make or use a list of Scientology Items. This includes Scientology, Scientology Organizations, an Auditor, clearing, auditing, Scientologists, a session, an E-Meter, a practitioner, the auditor’s name, Ron, other Scientology persons, parts of Scientology, past auditors, etc. (See HCO Bulletin November 24 and subsequent HCO Bulletins for “Scientology Lists”.) The list need not be endless as it will be easy to catch a trace of the GPM if the person is a Rock Slammer. The list is composed by the auditor, not the pc.

This is the only action known in auditing which will undercut the bank of a slow moving or non-gain pc. Every such pc is a Rock Slammer.

Why is this? Well, these two Items (a terminal and oppterm of the GPM) make a Present Time Problem. The pc is obsessively trying to solve this problem, not trying to get well or go clear. The pc won’t come off trying to solve this sub-surface problem. He or she doesn’t even “know” about it. So there’s the Auditor trying to make somebody well, but the pc is trying to die “to prove Scientology doesn’t work” or to get sick “to make my boss realize what he’s done to me”, etc, etc.

It’s pathetic. In the largest percentage of cases, the auditor is opening the door to the next two hundred trillion years and the pc is reactively trying to get even with grasshoppers.

This disagreement between auditor and pc brings about the upsets and no gains. No other technique known will get at this key problem or problems.

This technique doesn’t try to diagnose the problem. Indeed the problem won’t be known to the pc (or the auditor) until the action is complete. And then the auditor doesn’t even have to ask for it or about it.

What do you do with these two Items? Well, this will prove to be the third biggest source of falls from grace in using Routine 2-12. You don’t do anything with the Items except establish which is the terminal and which is the oppterm and put them on the pc’s Line Plot. The thing that could be done with them would be to get “Represent Lists” from them to find more Items. You can ask for missed W/Hs, saying, “When did (oppterm found) nearly find out about you?” But it’s best to leave the RS on for a goal finder as the goal finder will want to use them in 3GAXX. (Step 4A — Routine 3-21.) So don’t spoil the RS. The pc will cognite all over the place and that’s the benefit, and the pc won’t be trying to chop up auditors and orgs, and should respond very well to CCHs and Prepchecking after the Two Items are found.

The biggest error that will be made is trying to do R2-12 with the Rudiments out, and conversely, putting the Mid Ruds in every time a pc originates (a sure way to ruin a pc).

The second biggest source of error is making Incomplete Lists. These go out hard and give a dirty needle and result in no Item. The unschooled auditor will usually chicken out whenever the pc says, “That’s all,” or “I’ve just put it on the list. That last Item is IT,” at which the auditor stops listing. And the Item that will Rock Slam is never put on the list and so is never found. And the auditor is left fighting a dirty needle and trying to read through it. The rule is, while nulling, if a simple question “What did you want to say?” fails to smooth out a suddenly dirty needle the list is incomplete. Complete it and then put in Mid Ruds. The average list runs 80 or more Items. (Get the precise difference between a dirty needle and a dirty read in HCO Bulletin November 8, AD 12.)

If you have found a pair of Reliable Items and can’t find anything now on the basic list of Step One, and you want to continue Routine 2-12, the following questions will produce lists on which Reliable Items can be found. You ask the pc the question and write down whatever he says. You never correct the pc or refuse an Item. You only use one of these questions at a time for a full coverage with all 12 Steps.

• List R2-12 — 1. The Basic Scientology List as given in Step 1. It is essential not to omit it as the first action in Routine 2-12. It may be done again, and should be, after other lists are used to get Reliable Items. (After other Items have been found, List 1 may come alive again as pc’s case unburdens.)

The above lists are numbered and lettered for proper sequence in use on the preclear.

In other words you could do Routine 2-12 many times (plus doing Step 1 on the Scientology List more than once) on a preclear. But always do the first step with Scientology Items as many times as you can get one of its Items to react and you’ll never miss.

It is this first list of Scientology Items which holds up cases, so it must be used for all 12 steps again and again.

The rule is: “If you get a Reliable Item always get its opposing item.” Then you will never get a BY-PASSED ITEM, the thing that hangs up cases.

In getting any Reliable Items and their opposition, you are of course cleaning up the GPM and therefore clearing the pc. So this is a road to clear.

Items have many other uses, so never fake one and never fail to record one on the Line Plot.

Occasionally you get a BONUS PACKAGE off one list. In addition to the Item you are looking for, sometimes two RSing Items will show up on the same list opposing each other and blow. They oppose each other, not what you’re listing. Point this out to the pc when found and put these also on the Line Plot, marked BP (Bonus Package), one as a terminal and one as an opposition terminal. And go on and find your regular Item.

Routine 2-12, coupled with Problems Intensives and CCHs, gives the HCA/HPA a full kit that can handle the worst cases, knock out the no-gain cases and can clear. So I haven’t forgotten the HCA/HPA.

Don’t try to cover up the fact that somebody has a Rock Slam or a Dirty Read on Scientology etc. You’ll have set him or her up to never have gains.

To accomplish a 3GAXX for Rock Slammers, an auditor needs to be drilled and thoroughly examined on the following:

If the auditor can’t do 3GAXX for Rock Slammers, it will be because he did not know or was badly examined on the five things above. There’s neither difficulty nor mystery about the above 12 steps.

So study up and don’t miss. This, but no Routine 3 process, is declared an HPA/HCA skill. If an auditor can’t do it, he’ll have a slow go or a no-win on about eighty per cent of all cases.

With the above, properly studied and well drilled, there will be great success on anybody who can be persuaded to begin a session.

And also this must be done on every case that hasn’t gone clear already even after their goal has been found. It’s a certainty that such a case is by-passing at least one side of a Present Time Problem that is part of and suppressing the whole GPM.

Note: No preclear will achieve a lasting case gain with overts on Scientology and allied Items. No free needle will stay free in the presence of these overts. Routine 2-12 removes the unwanted valences that commit such overts rather than endlessly sec checking the pc. The most insidious By- Passed Items are those that remain in present time prompting the pc to commit senseless overts to the dismay of his good sense and the peril of his case condition. He will make no fast gain until the Scientology List is worked over and over for any reaction.

Note: This is a primary training skill. Do not give students more than instruction on the check sheet of Class IIb before turning them loose on Routine IIb as a heavy time auditing activity. They will learn little or nothing before being clean on R2-12. Put Comm Course and other instruction after R2-12 and the student will have a chance to learn it. Give the student further heavy instruction on R2- 12 toward course end. Classify only on the end of course repass of the IIb check sheet. The point is don’t waste instruction on basic Scientology until the student is cleaned up on Routine 2-12, particularly the Scientology List. I don’t care how this is accomplished in the Academy or in the HGC. Just get it done.
