Well, you haven't had a chance to ask any questions, and I've been informed by Mary Sue that you are now getting into a shape that you know what you don't know. So, what question would you like to ask today?

Female voice: I was wondering when you decide and how when to put the ten-way bracket from a five-way bracket. When you decide? | Female voice: I was wondering when you decide and how when to put the ten-way bracket from a five-way bracket. When you decide? |

Female voice: Yes. | Female voice: Yes. |
Ah, well, you're dealing with a problem which has actually no basis in mechanics beyond this: The reason you go to a — from a five-way to a ten-way bracket is the plus-minus proposition. It's covered in the anatomy of maybe and I think that is covered in what? That's Scientology 8-80, isn't it? | Ah, well, you're dealing with a problem which has actually no basis in mechanics beyond this: The reason you go to a — from a five-way to a ten-way bracket is the plus-minus proposition.

Female voice: Yes. | Female voice: Yes. |
And that's the anatomy of maybe. And a continued uncertainty on the part of a pc — a continuous no-cognition, the pc who says — never says, "What do you know?" is hanging so hard in maybes. And his maybes are so fantastic that as you look this thing over you'll see from the anatomy of maybe that the way to take it apart is take it on the plus side, take it on the minus side. "How have you done it? How have you not done it? How have you coughed? How have you not coughed?" You get the idea? And his idea of "Maybe I will cough" disappears. | And that's the anatomy of maybe.

"Maybe" does not have in itself, you see, any faintest reality in fact. It is simply a manifestation of a positive and a negative; and your positive and negative manifestation add up to maybe. | "Maybe" does not have in itself, you see, any faintest reality in fact.

Now, problem one consists of postulate A versus postulate B and between these two postulates you get an indecision, don't you see? But usually postulate A is "do it," and postulate B. is "don't do it." That is the commonest variety of a problem. | Now, problem one consists of postulate A versus postulate B and between these two postulates you get an indecision, don't you see?

And if you ask somebody that you're trying to take problems apart by solutions — which can be done; I'll tell you how to do that in a moment — you would say some version of "do it," "don't do it," and then the decision can emerge. But as long as he's hanging on "I've got to do it. I mustn't do it," then no decision can emerge. And "maybe" is simply a counterbalanced insistence on "must" and "must not," or "it is" and "it is not." And these things equally insistent, addest up into the indecision of maybe, but the indecision of maybe is not itself a fact. Have you got the idea? | And if you ask somebody that you're trying to take problems apart by solutions — which can be done; I'll tell you how to do that in a moment — you would say some version of "do it," "don't do it," and then the decision can emerge.

Female voice: Yes. | Female voice: Yes. |
All right. If that's not a fact, then you've got to take apart the thing by taking apart its two sides. And then the indecisional character or the maybe character, the uncertainty — and this is quite important in psychotherapy because we're not handling the whole subject of anxiety. The whole subject of anxiety is resident in this anatomy of maybe. | All right. If that's not a fact, then you've got to take apart the thing by taking apart its two sides. And then the indecisional character or the maybe character, the uncertainty — and this is quite important in psychotherapy because we're not handling the whole subject of anxiety.

Well, anxiety simply is — consists of "must" and "must not," "is" or "is not." And these things are so counterbalanced that of course, the person can't make up his mind, and anxiety is simply a heightened or frantic state of maybe, you see. | Well, anxiety simply is — consists of "must" and "must not," "is" or "is not."

So, all right. Let's — supposing you have a terribly, terribly, terribly anxious or nervous pc who is very indecisional and doesn't know whether to come to session and doesn't know whether or not to come to session and thinks there might be great consequences in coming to session or not coming to session, and wonders whether or not they should do it this way or should do it that way and they are just dramatizing indecision all the time, all the time, all the time. Actually, you should know that it is a mistake to run a five-way or six-way bracket on them. you would have to run — pardon me, a five-way bracket — you'd have to run one of these ten-way brackets on them. Got the idea? | So, all right.

Because they're — they cannot land. They're incapable of landing on plus and incapable of landing on minus, so the longer you run anything in the middle that is avoiding this tremendous condition in which they find themselves, why, the longer they're going to be in processing. | Because they're — they cannot land. They're incapable of landing on plus and incapable of landing on minus, so the longer you run anything in the middle that is avoiding this tremendous condition in which they find themselves, why, the longer they're going to be in processing. |
And this is the case that never says, "What do you know?" You've run this case, you've run this case. This case gets no cognitions. This case doesn't ever say, "Well, I'm getting better." This case never says, "Well, there's some way out of the hole." Or the case never even says, "I'm getting much worse." You know? It just goes on grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind. Well, you've run into the anatomy of maybe. And the total absence of cognition winds us up into the total presence of uncertainty and anxiety. | And this is the case that never says, "What do you know?"

"I don't know whether I should be processed or not, you see, because if I am processed, da-da-da — you never know. And if I — I — I don't know. I — you know. I — isn't there ter — some terrible consequence? Are you very sure that it doesn't hurt the mind?"

The person is saying to you "maybe." The person is saying to you, "indecision," "anxiety," all that sort of thing. Well, practically every process you do on them, you ought to somehow or another bend it around so there's plus and minus, plus and minus, plus and minus, plus and minus, see. | The person is saying to you "maybe."

Never run a plus, plus, plus, plus, because you'll get a stuck flow promptly; and never run a minus, minus, minus, minus, minus, because you'll get a stuck flow promptly. And that is what decides it. The condition of the pc is what decides it. | Never run a plus, plus, plus, plus, because you'll get a stuck flow promptly; and never run a minus, minus, minus, minus, minus, because you'll get a stuck flow promptly.

Now, about one pc, maybe, out or every — this IS an inaccurate figure, but it's just somewhat of idea of order of magnitude. Maybe one out of twenty never says, "What do you know." | Now, about one pc, maybe, out or every — this IS an inaccurate figure, but it's just somewhat of idea of order of magnitude.

All right. Well, that particular pc — when you're sizing them up, you run them for a little while — just make up your mind, everything on this pc has got to be run plus and minus. Everything | All right. Well, that particular pc — when you're sizing them up, you run them for a little while — just make up your mind, everything on this pc has got to be run plus and minus.

So, this would make the rudiments sound like this: "Do you have a present time problem? Is there a present time problem you don't have?" Got it? | So, this would make the rudiments sound like this: "Do you have a present time problem? Is there a present time problem you don't have?" Got it? |
Female voice: Yes. | Female voice: Yes. |
"Do you have an ARC break? All right. Is there an ARC break you don't have? Thank you very much." | "Do you have an ARC break? All right. Is there an ARC break you don't have? Thank you very much." |
"Are you withholding anything? All right. Very good. Very good. Is there anything you're not withholding? Fine. All right." | "Are you withholding anything? All right. Very good. Very good. Is there anything you're not withholding? Fine. All right." |
You could even go to the reduotio ad absurdum of asking such a pc, "Is it all right if I begin this session now? What would happen if I didn't?" | You could even go to the reduotio ad absurdum of asking such a pc, "Is it all right if I begin this session now? What would happen if I didn't?" |
And you'll find that your noncogniting pc will all of a sudden be saying, "What do you know?" you know. And this long grind, grind, grind will tend to disappear and go into limbo. | And you'll find that your noncogniting pc will all of a sudden be saying, "What do you know?" you know. And this long grind, grind, grind will tend to disappear and go into limbo. |
So, that is when you decide this. The greater the anxiety, the greater the indecision, the greater the uncertainty of the pc, the more you must run both sides of an auditing command; and it just depends on that. And most pcs — the large majority of your pcs — this just falls into place and you can do it most any way you want to do it. And it'll go along. And you would do a Prehav Assessment and it's Failed Leave, well, you don't have to run Leave. They may dramatize Leave a little bit immediately after you've run Failed Leave, but doesn't matter. You can get away with it, don't you see. | So, that is when you decide this.

You can get away with it, don't you see. |
But if this person is one of these "can't change," "don't go anyplace," so forth, you assess them on Failed Leave, you know instantly if they're going to blow straight across the scenery. They're going to disappear on you if you say "Failed Leave" about twice without saying "leave."

You should recognize this as that particular case, because I think that case is the bane of your existence. The case actually will change, but never seems to notice it. Yeah. Well, that's how you handle that case. you can take that case apart like you can count pennies on a table.

Well, this kind of a manifestation — you're running — you're running a terminal — you're running a terminal "whizzlestick." And this pc just doesn't know if that's the level or not. You've assessed Cause. "Whizzlestick, Cause. Well, I don't know whether that's the level or not. I wouldn't be sure that's the level. Are you sure that's the level? That couldn't have fallen on that, could it have?" That isn't the level then, really, is it? Well, the auditing command you put together had better be Cause-Not Cause.

Male voice: Ron, on Routine 1A, when you're running "Recall a PTP" or one of the processes, can you change during a session, and when? | Male voice: Ron, on Routine 1A, when you're running "Recall a PTP" or one of the processes, can you change during a session, and when? |
All right. In running Routine 1A, and you're running "Recall a PTP," or whatever you're running, can you change within the session? The mildness would be the determination. The answer is "yes." Not ordinarily, but it could be done. And it would be determined by the mildness of reaction, not the violence of reaction. | All right.

Not ordinarily, but it could be done. And it would be determined by the mildness of reaction, not the violence of reaction. |
If you're getting tremendous tone arm reaction, and you're getting tremendous pc reaction as a result of running such a process as "Recall a PTP," it would be an Auditor Code break to shift it not only in the session but in the intensive. Because it's running too hot and it's running too heavy, and it would be too painful a shift to suddenly alter the auditing command. | If you're getting tremendous tone arm reaction, and you're getting tremendous pc reaction as a result of running such a process as "Recall a PTP," it would be an Auditor Code break to shift it not only in the session but in the intensive.

But the other side of it, you can. The thing doesn't seem to be doing very much. You're — you know, you're getting some tone arm action. You're getting a division of the Tone Scale or something like this, and the pc seems to be doing it rather easily. And they were having a little difficulty a short time before doing it, but they all of a sudden start doing it easily or something, and it looks like it's getting a little too easy with the pc or something like this. you could shift. You could shift to Confront. | But the other side of it, you can. The thing doesn't seem to be doing very much. You're — you know, you're getting some tone arm action.

This is something like I was saying, you dig up the ore from the bottom of the mine and put it out on the dump. Well, you could shift over onto Confront. And all of a sudden watch that tone arm fly again, see? You can do an adjustment like this. you can always do an adjustment on processing when the process you are running is no longer producing marked results. But, if you change a process before the rule of change has occurred — the twenty-minute test has occurred — you have committed a serious blunder not to go back sometime and complete that process. You got the idea? | This is something like I was saying, you dig up the ore from the bottom of the mine and put it out on the dump. Well, you could shift over onto Confront.

Male voice: Yeah. | Male voice: Yeah. |
It basically would mean that you probably made a mistake. It comes under the heading of rectifying an error. A person would — would run all right on Confront, but won't run at all well on Recall, and you ran Recall; and Confront won't get a heavy needle reaction, and so forth, but then, a heavy tone arm reaction. But you don't get much on Recall, see. | It basically would mean that you probably made a mistake. It comes under the heading of rectifying an error.

Well, it's actually the correction of a blunder. What you do would bring him, by cycle, up to PT whether running Confront or Recall or anything else. You get him solidly in PT and shift. | Well, it's actually the correction of a blunder. What you do would bring him, by cycle, up to PT whether running Confront or Recall or anything else.

And that would be the main thing that would determine whether you could shift or not, is can you get him into PT? See? If he's out of PT and the tone arm is moving like mad, well, you wouldn't shift. You'd carry on, that's all. | And that would be the main thing that would determine whether you could shift or not, is can you get him into PT? See?

Any auditing command, of course, can be modified. If you weren't able to modify an auditing command or change a phrasing of a process or a different approach on the same subject, of course you'd be hung with your own mistakes; and you'd also be hung with the diminishing change. | Any auditing command, of course, can be modified.

This pc, you've run him for — you ran him all day yesterday, and you run him on "Recall a Problem." Just as simple as this, you see. And that tone arm was just whizzing, man. That was going over and jumping on — hitting the needle on the head, and turning the sensitivity knob up all by itself, you know. And just really whizzing. | This pc, you've run him for — you ran him all day yesterday, and you run him on "Recall a Problem." Just as simple as this, you see.

When you bring him into session, and all of a sudden it isn't whizzing Check your rudiments. Your rudiments are all in. Just not getting any reaction on that process today. Well, don't waste auditing Don't waste auditing Shift it aver. see if you can assess another command here that does get a big heavy needle reaction, and run that one, and that would be your basic criteria. l m not trying to give you anything complicated. | When you bring him into session, and all of a sudden it isn't whizzing Check your rudiments.

By the way, if you ran "Recall a Problem" during the whole of that session and the next session, it'd probably come back to doing its business all aver again, you see.

As long as you're running Problems, run them any confounded way you want to, or in any fashion you want to; but there are certain rules that have to be followed if you're going to do a good job of auditing and one of those rules is you don't change a process which is producing marked change on the case. If your process is damped out and isn't producing very much change, why, shift it in its type or wording, making a big loud note in the middle of a — in caps on the middle of your Auditor's Report — that "this process was changed when not flat" or something of that sort, see. At least let somebody in on the secret. That answer your question? | As long as you're running Problems, run them any confounded way you want to, or in any fashion you want to; but there are certain rules that have to be followed if you're going to do a good job of auditing and one of those rules is you don't change a process which is producing marked change on the case.

I'd like to say something more about problems and types of processes that could be used on problems here, and here's a good time as any to say them.

Here's an interesting point about problems and solutions. |
I may have given you too much of an impression that it is impossible to run a solution. Now, no, that is not factual. You can run solutions. There are many ways of running solutions and getting away with it. But I'm talking about running something like this, preventing the person from examining the problem and always insisting that he run a solution. Yes, that is impossible. But you run solutions on cases all the time. SOP Goals. What is a goal? A goal is a solution to some problem. You've learned that already. You've seen that. | I may have given you too much of an impression that it is impossible to run a solution. Now, no, that is not factual. You can run solutions.

All right. Another comment I'd like to make here is it seems to be tentatively true — from observation of reports and from what Mary Sue says — that those people who are being run on Problems and being given Security Checks and being assessed on SOP Goals are getting rather rapid trouble-free assessments on SOP Goals. Does that confirm your understanding of it? And those people who aren't being run on any preparatory processes and Security Checks at the same time are making poor, long-term, scramble progress. Is that the way it looks like? Hm? Well, tentatively, we make the observation that a case runs faster in a Goals Assessment if run on Problems and Security Checks at the same time — at different periods of the day. | All right.

All right. Now, let me say some more about this solution thing. There is a whole problems process, a very old one — at least three years old, two — two, three years old. It's probably older than that. I'm always finding something new had a precursor, or some two or three years before that it's already occurs in the notebooks. And that is, you take the condition of the pc, off your own bat, you assume that it's a solution to a problem. Of course, you'll be right. But you assume that it's a solution to a problem. This is the way of doing this, you see. | All right. Now, let me say some more about this solution thing.

And then you ask the person, "What problem could that be a solution to?" Now, this fellow's got a headache. Got a continuous headache. All right. So you say, "All right. Now, what problem would a continuous headache be a solution to?" Now, obviously, they're looking at a solution without examining the problem, right? Now, this brings us forward to a method of nulling goals which would be too insidious for words and it is not usable. I underscore that.

This could however be done: We've assessed this person for a cadet. This is the final terminal that emerged, and so on. We could say, without using the Prehav Scale, if we didn't have a copy of one or something — this is not recommended, see; this is not a doable action — "What problem would a cadet be a solution to?"

You're going to produce action. That's for sure! That's for sure, because you're going to run him into every problem he's ever had for the last two hundred trillion, or ever since he's adopted this particular terminal.

All right. Now, I'm just giving you examples here of what you can do with this. you take the — the stable datum and you ask him, "What confusion was that a stable datum to?" you see. You're saying the same thing as, "All right, what problem would a continuous headache be a solution to?" See? You're asking — you've taken the stable datum, which is a headache and you've asked him for the problem. Because he never confronted that or he wouldn't have the headache, you see. | All right.

To get him to confront this, however — this is not always successful. This is successful enough to be very useful to you. This is a good way of getting rid of a chronic PTP or something like that. It's not always successful because you may have put him up above the level of his confront, like crazy. | To get him to confront this, however — this is not always successful.

Well, he can't even confront the headache, because he's complaining about it and yet you're asking him to step back into the further never-never land of unreality and confront the problem that that's a solution to. And on some cases, you're going to lay a complete ostrich egg on this, you see. Their confront just is not up to this. That is all. But it is a useful mechanism and is something to know about and it is usable.

Now, you can take a goal. Here's something you can't do. you can take a goal and you'd say, "Tell me a problem that goal would be a solution to." We've assessed the fellow, and the pc "to be unencumbered." All right. This was the goal. | Now, you can take a goal.

All right, and we say, "Well, what problem would being unencumbered be a solution to?" And of course, this is something like picking somebody up and throwing them into the tar pit and say, "Swim, you — ." But the — these are heroic things, so heroic that they will exceed the level of the preclear's reality quite ordinarily and easily. | All right, and we say, "Well, what problem would being unencumbered be a solution to?"

You could, however, take a present time problem and try to run this with it and you would very often succeed with great rapidity. It would be quite astonishing to you how often you would succeed in taking this difficulty the pc has and assuming, just whole hog — it's just assuming that it must be a solution to a problem and just telling the fellow to look at the problem and it would blow up with great rapidity. | You could, however, take a present time problem and try to run this with it and you would very often succeed with great rapidity.

And the auditing command that would go along with this is a very pat one. It's just: "What problem would a (whatever it is) be a solution to?" Quite useful. A useful gimmick.

Scientology is full of these oddities. It's the oddity of getting away with it. We're doing the impossible, living in a universe that is tailor-made never to get out of, you see. Tailor-made.

Apparently all resistance is to prevent oneself from going any further down. The resistance is to go down. It's quite amazing the difficulty you have, actually, in worsening somebody's mental state. It's fantastic what you would have to do to worsen somebody's mental state. Really and how anybody would achieve this, actually, it's to the utter shame of psychology and psychiatry that they're really not able to. They temporarily do it in one lifetime or something like this. I suppose if they gave the guy enough motivators, why maybe it would even run out some of his overts.

You don't try to make the fellow well. you just stop him resisting getting worse.

He's preventing deterioration or something like this. And he could get it all — all sorts of complications where his prevention of deterioration looks like he's trying to deteriorate.

All right. Here it is, Bobby. You'll run into this rather constantly. Its — your needle — using a sensitivity knob for diagnosis, and your sensitivity knob has a low setting for a third-of-a-dial drop, and yet you're not getting much needle action. Well, that is why an E-Meter can never have its sensitivity knob adjusted to read low. There — a sensitivity knob can only be set as it is set on the Mark IV. That's about as good as you can do. Because if you start setting the sensitivity knob lower for less drops, then the drop that would be observed will drop out. Do you understand what I'm talking about? You will no longer be able to see any drop. you got it? | All right. Here it is, Bobby. You'll run into this rather constantly.

So the person that you're discussing is actually getting up into — well or in — they're a Release and haven't found it out yet and they're getting a tremendous drop on zero setting practically of the sensitivity knob — terrific action — and then when you try to assess something, why, horror of horrors, that needle doesn't move very much. Here's a very loose can-squeeze test and not much of a motion in the needle. | So the person that you're discussing is actually getting up into — well or in — they're a Release and haven't found it out yet and they're getting a tremendous drop on zero setting practically of the sensitivity knob — terrific action — and then when you try to assess something, why, horror of horrors, that needle doesn't move very much.

All right. Now, let's look over the characteristic of an E-Meter. An E-Meter is registering amount of charge or disagreement. Charge and disagreement could be said to be synonymous and to make charge more understandable, use the word disagreement. If you're getting a bad fall, you can always get your fastest cognition on the part of your pc by asking, "What are you in disagreement with?" This doesn't fit in well for most of your questions, and so on, but you could always bend it around so that you can use it. | All right. Now, let's look over the characteristic of an E-Meter.

This pc, "Do you have an ARC break? Do you have — do you have this or that or anything of the sort?" You finally say to this person, "Well, do you have a disagreement with anything?" | This pc, "Do you have an ARC break? Do you have — do you have this or that or anything of the sort?" You finally say to this person, "Well, do you have a disagreement with anything?" |
And all of a sudden you'll observe this fall that you have observed so fleetingly, because it is the fundamental reaction is caused by disagreement. | And all of a sudden you'll observe this fall that you have observed so fleetingly, because it is the fundamental reaction is caused by disagreement. |
Now, as a person gets up toward Clear — they're getting closer and closer in this particular direction — of course, their wild disagreements, aberrational disagreements with existence, are much less so there's actually much less charge on the case. And the needle will only register to the degree of the charge remaining on the case. And so you have the oddity of the closer a person gets toward Clear, the looser is the needle and the less is the actual reaction on questions. And you will get to a point — . It's a good thing for you to bring up because it's a good diagnostic point. | Now, as a person gets up toward Clear — they're getting closer and closer in this particular direction — of course, their wild disagreements, aberrational disagreements with existence, are much less so there's actually much less charge on the case.

You're eventually going to have to raise the sensitivity knob up for a person who gets toward Clear just as you had to do for somebody who's way down at the bottom so that you could read the needle at all; and this becomes very difficult. The can squeeze test makes the needle go over, bang! And it hits one pin and comes back and hits the other pin. And it's crash! You see? And you say, "Well. All right. Now, do you have a present time problem?" The fellow looks like he has a present time problem or something like this, you know. To get a read, you have to actually increase that sensitivity knob, in spite of the wildness and violence of that can drop. | You're eventually going to have to raise the sensitivity knob up for a person who gets toward Clear just as you had to do for somebody who's way down at the bottom so that you could read the needle at all; and this becomes very difficult.

So your can-squeeze test ceases to be valid from Release on up. When you can no longer retard the sensitivity knob on a Mark IV British Meter to vet a third-of-a-dial drop, from there on — this is something that is not in the text — you had better be suspicious that you are going to miss falls. And you'd better start advancing the sensitivity knob. Do you see that? It's — there's something to know there. Now, that's quite — quite amazing. You'd say, well — but you see all aberration is a mockery of Clear and you've got down into the lower scale mockeries of Clear. Of course, you'd have to keep a highly advanced sensitivity knob to get any reading at all. The case is actually below having charge on it. | So your can-squeeze test ceases to be valid from Release on up.

Now, as the case gets better, you get a third-of-a-dial drop, which is somewhat the average case. Now you've got a pretty good charge, see. Your charge is quite heavy. And you get nice readings and everything is fine; and one day you're auditing the fellow and you say, "All right, now, squeeze the cans," and it noes over and hits the pin at the other side. And you retreat with that sensitivity knob reading You say, "Give the cans a squeeze," and it goes over and hits the pin. And you've got the sensitivity knob down, and you just can't turn it down any further. And you say, "Well I ought to fix this meter." And I actually Sell for this myself some time ago — ought to get these meters fixed, you understand, so that they can be turned down to a third-of-a-dial drop. | Now, as the case gets better, you get a third-of-a-dial drop, which is somewhat the average case.

No, when that condition begins to exist, then you, to find charge, had better start advancing the sensitivity knob. And you'd better start advancing ;he sensitivity knob to magnify these little remaining disagreements that don't amount to a hill of beans. Well, the difference is that when the fellow originally, to get a third-of-a-dial drop, had to have his sensitivity knob well advanced, well, he was below disagreeing. | No, when that condition begins to exist, then you, to find charge, had better start advancing the sensitivity knob.

Now, he comes up to a point where he can disagree with things fundamentally, and you of course are getting terrific reads with the thing down here at the sensitivity knob reading at its lowest set. you get big reads and everything is Mime. And then you process the fellow a little bit further along the line, you're going to see a change of characteristic here. At zero set, you're going to get more than a third-of-a-dial drop. Well, from that time on, you had better start advancing the sensitivity knob to get your reads. Not for the rudiments, but for Security Checks and goals. You can do it with Goals Assessments, too. Actually, rudiments and Goals Assessments are a cousin in the way they're read. | Now, he comes up to a point where he can disagree with things fundamentally, and you of course are getting terrific reads with the thing down here at the sensitivity knob reading at its lowest set. you get big reads and everything is Mime.

Security Check — you'd better start really revving that thing up because you're not going to find much on it. The fellow just isn't reacting. He isn't as reactive anymore, so the needle isn't reacting. But that is your fundamental test of whether or not the case is going Clear. And when you see this first start to occur — of your third-of-a-dial drop squeeze — that's — that's a gone dog as a test. That's no good as a test anymore. You got Release — that's good enough to just check out a Release right there. | Security Check — you'd better start really revving that thing up because you're not going to find much on it.

And after you get up to a point where you just cannot retard it and it just hits pins and caroms back and forth and flies all over the place, and you have to — in order to get a read — have to advance it up to 3 or 4 on the sensitivity knob setting. You know, "You got a present time problem?" The fellow says, "No," nothing happens. So you advance it to 3 or 4. "Have you got a present time problem?" you know. Bang! You get a terrific read of about two divisions, you know. | And after you get up to a point where you just cannot retard it and it just hits pins and caroms back and forth and flies all over the place, and you have to — in order to get a read — have to advance it up to 3 or 4 on the sensitivity knob setting.

Now, the test — cross-test is that it blows that fast. Guy's got a present time problem, he tells you about it. Now, you can't find it again. Gone. See, the thing's blowing. When this condition completely disappears and advances to a point where you just can't — well, the can-squeeze test is just all over the place and 16, you can't get anything falling. You can't even do an assessment anymore, something like that. You'd better bring yourself up with a — with a sharp halt. You've probably been looking at a Clear for the last few hours and haven't noticed it. That is the gradient scale of Clear test. It's unmistakable when it happens to you.

If a case is not changing in characteristic of can squeeze as it goes along, it isn't making any advance — and that would be checked out, by the way, by giving them continuous profile tests. It's not making any advance.

They still have to be here at sensitivity knob setting 2 to get a third-of-a-dial drop. Next session, sensitivity knob setting 2, to get a third-of-a-dial drop.

The speed with which you can detect this, is sufficiently good that if your processing is advancing with all of your rudiments in — this is an important thing to know — if your processing is advancing with all rudiments squared away, see, rudiments all in, everything's all straight, you should be able actually to detect, from session to session, a difference in the can-squeeze test.

You can tell, very quickly and very immediately, that a case is not advancing because this phenomenon that you've just brought up is not taking place; and if that phenomenon does not come into being on a case in some finite period of time and you can't set the sensitivity knob back, you see, far enough, you still get too much drop no matter what you do with the sensitivity knob; and then your detection of Security Check questions becomes very difficult because you're not getting much needle action. | You can tell, very quickly and very immediately, that a case is not advancing because this phenomenon that you've just brought up is not taking place; and if that phenomenon does not come into being on a case in some finite period of time and you can't set the sensitivity knob back, you see, far enough, you still get too much drop no matter what you do with the sensitivity knob; and then your detection of Security Check questions becomes very difficult because you're not getting much needle action. |

This is so poorly understood at large that it has actually let Scientology in for some brickbats. Because you can ask almost anybody anything. You can ask a girl, "Are you a virgin?"

And you can get led very far astray with this with an E-Meter if you don't take them apart.

Male mice: Ron, I came up against something recently on CCH 4 which might be useful. I found that auditors were using sort of — sort of a standard command on "I want you to make a — I'm going to make a motion with this book, and I want you to copy it mirror-imagewise." And then they were using this check question, 'Are you satisfied with that duplication," or something of that nature after every command. | Male mice: Ron, I came up against something recently on CCH 4 which might be useful.

Well, this — this can cause quite a bit of randomity. The original reason "Are you satisfied — ?" was used has to be researched. And that was because invalidation was acuring — here you've got — occurring. Here you've got the cure-problem phenomenon, you see. And the cure is now causing difficulty. But the tendency of the auditor to critically do the command again caused tremendous ARC breaks and would actually cause the process to be totally inoperative. So, "Are you satisfied with the auditing command — that you did that?" rather, was introduced in order to cure this particular situation. | Well, this — this can cause quite a bit of randomity.

Now, it is not necessary for the auditor to duplicate the exact command they just did. It is not necessary that they do this. After all, they're not trying to duplicate, duplicate, duplicate because it's not particularly duplicative. It's duplicative enough that the auditor does it and then the pc does it. So what they do is they find the pc is very weak on a circular motion. So they just go on making varieties of circular motions. And they just put him over the jumps on circular motions. But they're not always the same circular motion, don't you see, and this prevents the thing. Now, that's another cure, and that undoubtedly will produce its own problem in the future. Your point's well taken, Vic. Right. | Now, it is not necessary for the auditor to duplicate the exact command they just did. It is not necessary that they do this.

Now, is — anything you've been auditing that you felt you were — shouldn't really have been auditing Anything you've been auditing you felt you shouldn't have been auditing Why, it'd take a brave auditor to answer that question.

Male voice: I hare one question, Ron. In answer to your last question about doing something you didn't particularly want to do. I felt that, giving withholds up on a Security Check as an auditor, running each withhold down was irrelevant. I thought the nature of the withhold was irrelevant and it took up time. | Male voice: I hare one question, Ron.

Now, let me — let me clarify this. Let me clarify this. Your point's very well taken there. And it's never intended that everybody should write down every withhold that the pc ran across because you would run into the — you'd run into the British Museum Library every time. But something that was very difficult to clear — something that literally took you an hour or more to clear or something of this nature. It took you a half an hour to finally get down to it — what was it? Now, that appearing on a Security Check as what the nature of withhold would be — that would be this rough to try to clear — would be of value, only to me on research. | Now, let me — let me clarify this.

And eventually I'd be able to go over a tremendous pack of written Security Checks, don't you see and be able to establish the type of withhold which was most closely pressed to the bosom, and perhaps adjudicate something out of this that would get us along a little bit further. So your resistance toward that is quite proper because writing down every line of the pc — every withhold he had, writing it down on a Security Check — that would be a poor show. But those that are very resistive would be of great interest to me. Not as a character index on the person but just as a general run. | And eventually I'd be able to go over a tremendous pack of written Security Checks, don't you see and be able to establish the type of withhold which was most closely pressed to the bosom, and perhaps adjudicate something out of this that would get us along a little bit further.

"The human race most closely withholds the following: . . ." And then you just make some great long column of the types of withholds. You get the common denominators in these withholds, you'd probably find a hidden button that we didn't know much about before. Okay? That's the only — only thing I want, and if you'd write that sort of thing down. you really had to struggle for this one, you know. you got in there and you ask him, "Well, have you ever raped a cat?" you know, or whatever the security question is, and you go on and on and on and on and on and on and on; and you just cannot get any clearance on the thing at all, and then you find out that it's something — some odd shading of the command or something like this, or of the question, that was really holding it up. Well, for heaven's sake, write it down. | "The human race most closely withholds the following: . . ." And then you just make some great long column of the types of withholds.

Female voice: oh, he's complaining about that because I asked them to write it down. And the reason I do is because we have different auditors giving Sec Checks from the different auditors who were processing them and the auditor wants to know whether his preclear's case is improving, whether apart from running, more withholds are coming off | Female voice: oh, he's complaining about that because I asked them to write it down.

Female voice: They also want to check to see if his withholds — if the preclear's withholding anything from him, the auditor, that he's told another — the Sec Check auditor, but hasn't told the auditor. You see what I mean? His real auditor. So, I mean for all purposes of this course is that I think they should jot down — they don't have to write down every word the preclear said, but they can at least note it, you know, "stole apple," they just write down "apple," you know. | Female voice: They also want to check to see if his withholds — if the preclear's withholding anything from him, the auditor, that he's told another — the Sec Check auditor, but hasn't told the auditor.

Female voice: so . . . | Female voice: so . . . |
All right. I've given you my requirements — what I'd like to see on a Security Check. That applies very broadly whether you're doing them in Northumbria or any other unlikely place, and so on. Now, Mary Sue, to facilitate running the course — which would probably then apply to facilitate running an HGC — wants a shorthanded notation of the withhold that was there and was given up, like "stole apple" and she puts down "apple" and somebody then checking back across this thing — he's looking through this on rudiments or that sort of thing, he finds out that he's got a whole chain of withholds that doesn't — that hasn't been given up to Security Check or something of that sort.

No, this applies — this applies to Sec Checks on Scientologists, and is an old regulation and has been thrown pretty much adrift whether or not Sec checks when completed should be sent in to me.

Male voice: Yes. | Male voice: Yes. |
And this was actually a preventer. It wasn't that I wanted to know these things. It was that there was some feeling about, when this was first begun, that such data might be used for blackmail or something like this. And of course, if the actual Security Check is sent through and it's already resident in a safe someplace in the world, it's — couldn't so operate, ever. you got the idea? | And this was actually a preventer.

Male voice: Yeah. | Male voice: Yeah. |
So that was its basic thing. Now, there is another check, purely organizational in character which is just now being worked up. We got the Joburg, and the Joburg passed immediately over into processing. Now, it had left a need for an actual Security Check which some HCO Area Sec or a D of T or somebody like that could give rapidly, or the Assoc Sec Sec could give for employment or for a course admission that didn't take seventeen hours of auditing or something like that to deliver. And it must be at the absolute outside, about thirty questions. That would be the absolute limit that the thing could possibly tolerate. You see? Preferably less. | So that was its basic thing.

All right, so let us say that a person has been accepted for employment in a Central Organization, then I would expect to see their employment check sent on through with the record and fact that they had been employed. You got the idea? | All right, so let us say that a person has been accepted for employment in a Central Organization, then I would expect to see their employment check sent on through with the record and fact that they had been employed. You got the idea? |
Male voice: Yes. | Male voice: Yes. |
Now, that would also then keep Central Organizations from bypassing this particular step because you would notice that there was a lot of personnel there that you had no employment application form for of any kind and that would mean the security had dropped in some particular area; and if you want trouble in an area, drop its security, I can guarantee you'll get trouble in the area. | Now, that would also then keep Central Organizations from bypassing this particular step because you would notice that there was a lot of personnel there that you had no employment application form for of any kind and that would mean the security had dropped in some particular area; and if you want trouble in an area, drop its security, I can guarantee you'll get trouble in the area. |
All right. Now, if a field auditor wished to do this, and the field auditor were giving this Short Form Security Check to people that were operating in some area or something like that, and they wanted to send it in to me, why, they should do so. It isn't a required proposition, however. | All right.

A Clean Hands Check has now become so difficult to do, because the Security Check so rapidly changes its character under processing and so many security factors emerge which were totally unreal before, that a Clean Hands Certificate or seal on a certificate is now only going to be issued as a result of being audited on these routines which have repetitive Security Checks mixed up in them. | A Clean Hands Check has now become so difficult to do, because the Security Check so rapidly changes its character under processing and so many security factors emerge which were totally unreal before, that a Clean Hands Certificate or seal on a certificate is now only going to be issued as a result of being audited on these routines which have repetitive Security Checks mixed up in them. |
Now, therefore, it — you could not do what was originally intended which is you simply drop in on an HCO and get a Security Check and they give you R Clean Hands stamp, and that's that. That's not possible. But you could forward the evidence of having been audited all the way up the line on a routine, you see, with consequent Security Check, with copies of the Security Checks either in an HGC or in the field. Hand those over to HCO and a Clean Hands seal could be then administered. But it would now be as a result of auditing — auditing on the routines. It would not be as a result of simply a Security Check in an HCO. | Now, therefore, it — you could not do what was originally intended which is you simply drop in on an HCO and get a Security Check and they give you R Clean Hands stamp, and that's that.

I'd say auditing to Release and that's about the only thing that'd make it safe and secure. Washington's all excited right now. They're going around in small circles and being very proud and that sort of thing. They just committed an administrative blunder. They left the D of P on a pc and that mustn't happen. Ds of Ps, even acting Ds of Ps must not be given a pc, you see. | I'd say auditing to Release and that's about the only thing that'd make it safe and secure. Washington's all excited right now.

That's an old piece of policy because it skimps, then, auditing on all the rest of the pcs in the place. But they've got somebody going through to Clear. And this fellow was appointed acting D of P who was auditing somebody, and this person is just — just flicking the edges of Clear, see. And Washington went into a panic because all of a sudden the Assoc Sec was transferred over on to a course, temporarily, and the D of P was transferred over on to a course and somebody in — just as he went off post thought, "Well, this is a good auditor. He's had lots of good results, and so forth. We'll just make him acting D of P." without finding out how many weeks he had left on a pc or what state the pc was in. | That's an old piece of policy because it skimps, then, auditing on all the rest of the pcs in the place.

Everybody takes a look at this and finds the pc busy — almost Clear, you see, and going to Clear. And it just caused a fantastic amount of randomity, let me tell you. Because it was in effect, because of this erroneous appointment — in effect, they had almost been told not to clear somebody. Got the idea? And boy, that put everybody in a sweat. That certainly couldn't work that way, but this is the first Clear of recent times they've made in the HGC. So that this activity was being stepped in the road of, of course had rockets going up in all directions, you know — white lights, burning tar barrels, and flags flown upside down. Don't do this to us, you know! Of course, the fellow who did it to them is probably safely over on course now. Very interesting. | Everybody takes a look at this and finds the pc busy — almost Clear, you see, and going to Clear. And it just caused a fantastic amount of randomity, let me tell you.

Australia and Washington are starting to boom and they are going at great guns. Their Academies are getting fuller and fuller, and their HGCs are fuller and fuller. London right now is getting in a desperate state. Some of its leading lights are here, and all of a sudden had — didn't have to but did bust policy and take List One and Two, which is the Staff Staff Auditors, off staff and put them on outside pcs. Oh, oh. But when it had been found out that this had happened, it was already a day or so's auditing deep into the outside pcs, you see. All that means is, is that the Acting D of P denied sources for Staff Auditors, and so forth. Just was straight up against the wall, see. In view of the fact the temporary D of P London is down here right this minute, why of course this is all up in the air with a screaming Chunk. | Australia and Washington are starting to boom and they are going at great guns.

And the other thing that mustn't happen these days is the staff mustn't lose its list auditors. It just mustn't. Because I think staffs of, say, all of Central Organizations and the HCOs have a right to be Clear. And they're all getting real on it, you know.

And we've been wading into them with seven-league boots as far as — as doing it right and squaring it up. And their willingness is terrifically high, and they've been getting up to a high level of duplication, and so on. And all of a sudden their results are coming up, coming up, getting better and better. And they're moving up, and they're moving people easily now up into brackets of Release.

But, give you an idea right now. The only reasons why clearing is not being done are scandalously huge. They are never minor errors. They're errors of such magnitude they would just stagger you, you know. Tremendous errors. The two people in Joburg who were hanging up on whom rout — I posted the notice on your board in here. Did you read it? The two people there in Joburg who were hanging up, and cables were flying back and forth — Routine 1 was not working on these people. All of a sudden they — the Course Instructor waded in with all flags flying, and grabbed ahold of the pcs and put them on a meter. And they had screaming present time problems of long duration that should have been caught in the Security Check Model Sessions — every session — but had never had any attention paid to them. And she found the present time problems on these two people and they instantly broke into tears, both of them, you know. Just cracked right up, and so on. Boom! | But, give you an idea right now.
