“… an Expanded Dianetics auditor has to be very expert in the handling of confessionals.” (LRH, HCOB 24 February 77 Tech Correction Round-Up)

Case Histories have been compiled for the Hubbard Expanded Dianetics Course.

People with Evil Purposes (destructive intentions) towards an area will commit overts on that area in forwarding the Evil Purpose. Where a pc has R/Ses, he will have Evil Purposes and overts. By locating and running out the Evil Purposes with full Ex Dn one can relieve the tendency to continue to commit the overts.

There are two categories of case history. First the Psychosis Research Case Histories which cover LRH research in 1970 to early 1972. Then the Expanded Dianetics Case Histories covering the cases LRH C/Sed in 1972 after giving the Expanded Dianetics Lectures.

The actions which most often turn on R/Ses or even cause an Evil Purpose to pop into view are confessionals and pulling overts and withholds. Just pulling the overts would not handle fully. One must locate the underlying Evil Purpose and run it with full Ex Dn before an R/S can be considered handled.

Ex Dn uses confessional to help turn on R/Ses in areas where they are suspected and to expose Evil Purposes for running. A really searching confessional can follow right down the trail of a pc’s most basic aberrations to the R/S and underlying Ev Purp.

The purpose of the case histories is fourfold

Caution: That one has overts or EVPs that one has an R/S on does not make one a psychotic.

1. To give the student the technical data contained in the LRH programs and C/Ses.

2. To give the student an understanding of the development of the subject.

Confessionals would be part of “right side” handling as it is used to locate R/Ses and Ev Purps. By folder study the C/S establishes areas and terminals where the pc is failing in life or at least having great difficulty. It could be areas or terminals he totally avoids also. It could be areas of anti-social or compulsive behavior, areas which often show up in O/Ws but basically it’s areas of aberration for the pc. From these the C/S or the auditor can propose a confessional to dig into the area, getting off O/Ws and seeing if one can get an R/S to turn on or an Ev Purp to pop up. These confessionals need not be long for each area but must be well-worded and expertly delivered so nothing is missed. A miss on something like this could be quite explosive.

3. To give the student a better understanding of the psychotic case and psychosis.

Where an Ev Purp or R/S turns up the exact wording of what is occurring must be clearly noted and circled in red for Ex Dn handling. This includes marking the Ev Purp or R/S clearly on the Folder Summary and Program. The exact data is vital. When the short confessional is completed the Ev Purps or R/Ses are then handled and the cycle is continued until the pc’s areas of major aberration have been checked and handled. Where R/Ses and Ev Purps have already been noted in the folder they are of course handled and any further address to the same area depends on whether the pc is now “sane” on that area.

4. To show some of the results obtainable with Expanded Dianetics.

Confessionals done on R/Ses should be directed at getting overts, W/Hs, evil thoughts, intentions and motives with regard to the subject area. Where the area of a reported or suspected R/S is not yielding something because either the pc “can’t think of anything” or the read has been submerged, the area can be checked over with the buttons “suppress”, “careful of” and “didn’t reveal”.

Already existing confessional lists can be used where applicable and any previous confessional auditing that the pc has received should be carefully checked to see if it was effective and what was uncovered that would give clues to hot areas.

The session actions and procedures and the non-LRH C/Ses and programs are not to be used for technical reference or cramming. They are included to give a picture of what was done, how the pc ran and the case condition of the pc. When looking for how something is supposed to be run or when cramming an auditor use only the LRH C/Ses, notes or programs and other bulletins.

Ex Dn handles the R/Ses and Ev Purps. Confessionals help find the R/Ses and Ev Purps to handle. It’s the Ev Purps and R/Ses we must handle in order to have an Ex Dn Completion of a sane person. That’s all there is to it.

In some cases the LRH C/Sed actions may be different than a later C/S under similar circumstances or be in conflict with a later issue on how the action is done. Recognize that this was research and the later C/Ses and issues were advancements over the earlier ones.

The Psychosis Research Case Histories are classified as confidential and are to be treated as such. The statements and actions by the pcs in these histories at times could be quite enturbulating to someone not trained in the subject. Do not discuss the cases. Treat them as you would any pc’s case.

The Expanded Dianetics Case Histories began with the idea of applying, the newly developed tech to the handling of chronic sickies as covered on the lectures. The objective was to make a well person. As the research progressed the Ex Dn procedure quickly was adapted to handle more than just the chronic sickies as being chronically ill proved to be an indicator of something more basic and psychosis, neurosis and evil intentions entered the scope of Ex Dn. The Expanded Dianetics Case Histories show the progress of cases to being well and in some cases later handlings are included which brought the case to full Ex Dn Completion. These case histories are not classified as confidential however they too should be treated as one would treat any pc’s case.

“Expanded Dianetics is very specifically adjusted to the pc.” (HCOB 15 Apr 1972)

In studying these case histories note how LRH does this job as C/S. Demo how it applies to other cases. Plot where the cases would fall on the Hubbard Chart of Human Evaluation from the data at hand and note when a case changes regarding one or more of the columns or, the chart. Demo each of the new actions or rundowns not included on the Expanded Dianetics Lectures when they occur in Ex Dn case histories.

Ex Dn auditing, and C/Sing is quite simple when one has a full grasp of the data, an understanding of cases and is well drilled in the skills of auditing. Get these in and the wins of completed Ex Dn pcs will be yours.
