A great many philosophical details, a great many causation’s, purposes, etc. will shake out and become very clear as you process this material.

It is not really enough simply to run incidents, incidents; and incidents with no understanding. An incident is only run completely when the purposes, intentions, and evaluations are run with it. Early in a case - the early part of a persons running of incidents, however, can sacrifice a great deal of purpose in order to get him up to a point where he can spot purpose. You will find that many of the things about which we have talked, are at best nebulous to you, now. They become quite definite, quite real, and the reasons them become very clear, as you yourself go through the experience line.

The farmer who goes to the circus and says, as he looks at the giraffe: “There ain’t no such animal,” and the public of New York looking at “Barnums” various items were prone to be very doubtful. The most common things which you have today in this society would have been but a few years ago to you, complete impossibilities. 15 years ago, there were very few people who knew that there was a possibility that an atom bomb could come into existence, 25 or 30 years ago, nobody really dreamed about an atom bomb. An atom bomb? A bomb that would blow up the world? Ah, it was just fantasy, that’s all - nobody could have done this, or have this, or anything of the sort, and yet today here it is. If 50 years ago, somebody had told you that a cup full of fuel would run a battleship around the world 25 times, you would have said, “No.” And yet, that possibility and that very engine is in development at this moment. So years ago man had some sort of inkling that man would fly someday, and yet every day we see airliners in the sky. When the Wright Brothers creation flew - the thing headlined in their home town paper was, “They would be home shortly,” not that their machine had flown. There was not even any importance assigned to the flight that was made in Kittyhawk on the day it was done, the world didn’t think it was important at all. It is a sort of blind thing - man loves to fool himself into thinking that those things which are going to affect him deeply, really aren’t going to affect him. Today, in dealing with the whole track techniques, civilizations, governmental types, technologies beyond technologies (in almost every line of possible endeavor) are showing up out of PCs. Many of these things can’t be built, because they require bridge techniques. They require a certain kind of wire, and this wire has not yet been manufactured or invented. It’s all very well to pick up a technique that requires some “ping” metal and try to use this, until all of a sudden he finds that “ping” metal was mined on one of the satellites of Jupiter. He’s not there. What was “ping” metal? As a result, we have an enormous amount of technology showing up here. Well, let’s not worry too much about whys and wherefores, beyond this: The route to get into a state where the technologies are available. That’s clever, because all the technologies will be available as soon as one achieves the level necessary to remember them, and use them, and apply them. After that, the sky is the limit.

So, you will find your PC very prone to get very excited about the various things which he is suddenly discovering on the track. Well, that’s his interest - let him run them but don’t let it absorb all the processing time. Let’s get in there with good old 88 and fix him up to where he can really remember them thoroughly, completely, and wholly. One fellow (very skeptical about the whole track) sat down one day and fixed his concentration on a bright spot on a stove and said: “Well, I’ll sort of let myself drift, and see if I wind up anyplace.” He finds himself on a super highway with cloverleafs and everything (the like of which has never been seen on earth) and he is riding a unicycle at a mad pace down this highway. He seems to have on this uniform and he is going someplace hurriedly. He said: “That’s enough,” and he came out of it.Now, the mechanics of how you get into the situation you are in, are most broadly laid open by following the initial steps of Technique 88 which I have given you. In other words, get the halver, or the sexual blanket incidents, which have the halver as a motivator. Get the times when the PC as a Theta being hit, punished, and messed up MEST beings. Run enough of those, and all of a sudden, he finds out where he is and what he can do. From there on he can find lots of answers. Now I will give you some of the chief things that you will run into.

You will find, even in this lifetime that your PC may have had a quarrel for, a body. I also want to take up what a Theta body does with facsimiles. Now, the quarrel for a body may occur just before birth. Some of these Theta beings are running on double tracks - Martian, and some of them had a track in some other planetary area, but they are still being thrown here at Earth. And here is the earth track, they go back up there (it takes about 15 minutes) and they get shot back down to earth again. They pick a baby just before birth or something like that, and immediately blank out. They are the baby, they are taking care of the baby, and from there on out this is the way it is. Sometimes they will land there, and they will have a fight for this baby. You will find them being rather shy and coy thereafter about other human beings, because they feel that they have done an overt act to this Theta being. You may find this in a PC 20 years ago, just before he was born. Birth isn’t terribly aberrative, but that Theta being line meeting just before birth, sometimes being a quarrel, is aberrative.

Now, what happens when a person dies? In the first place there is a perfectly mechanical process, which by the process of life continuum, of forgetting ones allies, of denying ones self grief, an individual is very happy to forget the past of this MEST being he has been packing around. He considers the life that he has just lived the life of this MEST being which he has been escorting, not his own life, because it has all been given to that. He loses the MEST body through death, and as soon as he loses the MEST being he more or less wipes out the facsimiles on the line. That is automatic. Now and then (not every between life here) he goes up through the screen, to Mars or one of these planets, or something of the sort, he feels a compulsion, he feels drawn there. Actually, there is a sort of implant that makes him go back to this place. He hasn’t got a MEST body, and the only way he can live again is to so and so, and so and so. And so feeling drawn to that place, he goes there. What happens to him when he gets there? He gets the Between Lives Incident. He has just gone through experiencing a death; he now goes through an incident which makes him think that he is reducing his life and wiping it out. They will show him a flock of wheels with pictures on them. The wheel goes around, and he will see the pictures go by, and then dim out, and disappear, and he will say: “Well, that proves it, my memory is all gone.” At the same time, he is being hit by hard force-waves which invalidate him as an individual, and as a memory. So he gets wiped out in this fashion, and he turns around and gets shot back down here. It seems incredible that anyone would go to this much trouble, but this is in PCs, and you can run it out. They go to this much trouble. Weird that they would!

Sometimes this has only happened to a PC 2 or 3 times, and sometimes it happens to them every life. Sometimes it hasn’t happened to him at all. Sometimes you will find that he is part of a chain that exists out here in the solar system on the satellites - a different government entirely. Women are peculiarly prone to this one, but it is a between life thing too. They die here, they wind up there, they come back here.

Now, sometimes a person will have an accident here on earth, and flip through the screen, not being dead here on earth. He will flip through the screen and “Bing” come back here again. During the period of the accident (or unconsciousness) they will go from here to the place they are supposed to go, and there it will be realized that there is something wrong with this person. He isn’t routine and they will just shoot him straight back again, and he will wake up and say: “I died while I was being operated on,” and everybody will say: “Nonsense, your heart kept on ticking,” but he will have this weird idea. Sometimes they will recognize when he hits the screen and arrives there, that he’s not dead. They will know this because he will start to go back, and they will give him an implant saying: “Now you don’t know anything about this, you haven’t heard anything about this, you don’t know, you don’t know.” BING - you are knocked out and they shoot you back again. This occurrence you will find in a large number of PCs, and you will find them hung up on the track at that point. Why? Because it is 2 incidents happening in the same unit of time. Two incidents, they happen to 2 bodies at the same time with a Theta body transferring between. You run this out like any other incident, but you run it happening here on Earth track, and run it there on that track, and finally they will get it meshed to a point where they know where they are, and what they were. You should run that - and I’m telling you about that because it might not be in this lifetime. It might be in the last lifetime. It might be 5 lifetimes ago, or it might be 2,000 years ago. You want to watch for one of those when your PC can’t quite make sense about what’s going on. He feels lost, that is the usual feeling about it. He feels lost, because after he goes back up there again a few times, he is very confused. He is generally packing this incident as a chronic somatic. If he had one of these things happen to him, the chronic somatic of it happening to him is still with him. For instance, if he did this while he was being operated on his throat (and he went from earth track to other planet track, and back here again) he is packing that throat somatic, and he is hung up on the track at that point. So you want to scout this one, this is an interesting incident and it requires just routine running, but you have to remember that it is a double track incident.

So, the incidents I have gone over are: This quarrel just before birth, which is quite ordinary. There is this wheel incident of the wipe out: They’ve got mirrors that move sideways and light shining on him that illuminates him and shows him up as a Theta body. He sees himself moving this way and that way, and of course he is all divided up and his entities are all restimulated. Here he is, and he’s gone of course, because he has been moved aside. You get the weirdest actions with regard to this.

Then there is the fact that you have a Genetic Line Cross. Here is your Theta Line coming down for millions of years, and you have this Genetic Line coming along here, and it’s 1785 or 1202 B.C. or some date or other. He came down this Theta Line and met up with this Genetic Line (the evolutionary line here on earth) the MEST body’s line. This body line has an actual entity which takes care of the body. It is a central entity, it does have some power over the body. In the first book we called this mind, the Somatic Mind. We knew it was there and had spotted it, but we didn’t quite know its source. This is its life span. You don’t care anything much about the somatic mind. You can process and process it without much of anything happening, because it is pretty stupid. It has accumulated an enormous number of facsimiles from the beginning here on Earth, straight on through to present time. It has a record of facsimiles of everything happening to it. Facsimiles of deaths, facsimiles of this and of that, it is a complete record. Now, what does your Theta being do about this? This somatic body is doing a skip, it goes through this generation, dies, goes immediately in the species to this generation, dies, into this one, dies, this one, dies. It skips each time. It is more or less following the protoplasm line, and the protoplasm line would be an unending stream here of species to species, and generation to generation - it is sort of following that. The protoplasm is carrying part of the map, and it (genetic entity) is carrying the blueprint, and between the 2 of them they have been making bodies, but it is doing a skip. It’s gone at death, and comes right straight back into the line. Death, right back into the line, dies, picks up the young of the next line. So, you will find quite often, a Theta being in possession apparently of all these MEST facsimiles, all this somatic line data is apparently in the Theta being, but it isn’t.

Now here is the lifetime of one man. Here at the top is conception, when the prenatal bank, and here is birth, infancy, and so forth. Here at birth, just before birth (sometimes 10 or 15 minutes before birth, that close) you get the Theta being off of the Theta line joining the body. The somatic being has been here already, since preconception usually, or at conception. The somatic being has been there all this time, and its been all the way through the prenatal bank clear on up to here (birth) and normally, at least at this time on the whole track, we are getting this join-up here.

Now you start processing, and of course you can process the whole prenatal bank, you can process conception, you can process all these things. You are processing it actually out of the genetic being, and the Theta being is helping you out. “Let’s process it out, you betcha, they are taking care of that body.” Process and process and process, and you leave this person alone, and this person keeps right on running, all on the genetic line. It doesn’t process anything else. You see, the Theta being isn’t worried about himself so much, he is just worried about this MEST body, that’s all there is to that. You get these people that walk around processing themselves all the time, this is actually what is happening to them. Therapy is evidently a line up whereby you get the consent of the Theta being to process the genetic line. Of course it doesn’t do any good to process the genetic line. So, you see how that would be. It does some good - yes, but not relatively. Therapy could possibly be set up to process the Theta line but all of a sudden you would find something new was happening.

Here is the Theta being processing itself, and you will find it will only process times when it has had something in its own field on an automatic basis, but it can go on processing automatically. Now, this is a trick that the Theta being has. You should understand this trick. The Theta being (and you will run into this) can pick up and duplicate somebody else’s facsimiles. The Theta being can look into someones skull or under their left armpit and pick up their facsimiles. If you get advanced far enough as a Theta being you will be able to look at a PC and without actually looking at them at all, you see their facsimiles and you take a photograph of their facsimiles. In other words, you will do a complete mock-up just automatically of just what facsimiles they have, and you say: “It’s this way, and this way, and this way,” as a facsimile. It is very uncomfortable to PCs sometimes, to have you (as an auditor) looking at them and reading their minds faster than the E-meter can tell, or for you to be standing there with your back to the machine and be reading what’s happening. They have got hold of the electrodes, they see the needle drop, and you say: “Yes, go on.” and suddenly they wake up to the fact that you are not facing or reading the machine. If you are dumb enough to scare people to this degree, why, do that. They get very leery of you.

They are afraid you are going to take their MEST body away from them or something. Now you can take the size and dimensions of somebody’s facsimiles. It’s a perception, one of the many perceptions. Mind reading is something that is done as a trick, magicians stimulate interest by pretending to read minds, and some people actually do read minds. Now, get this and get this very specifically - at no time does the Theta being TAKE the facsimile from anyone else. He doesn’t take their facsimiles (you get that?) and suddenly have the facsimile himself, so now he has got to run it out. Let’s say we have Being One (a) and Being Two (b). Here is a facsimile in (a), and (b) over here does not reach over and take the facsimile out of (a). Oh no, what (b) does is to make a complete mock-up of (a)’s facsimile. He can make a complete mock-up of it. He will say: “Yes, that is (a)’s facsimile.” He takes a picture of it and he files it. His file system is likely to be so careless sometimes that he says: “Yeah, this is my facsimile, I took it off this fellow.” Faith healing is predicated upon the falseness that somehow or other the pain is taken off the patient and is taken on by the healer, and then the healer has to suffer with it. That is something like going out and shooting a photograph of an accident, and going home and suffering by looking at the picture. You’ve Just got a photograph of that accident.

This is what you can do. This is what a Theta being can do. He takes a look at this picture and he can do 2 things: 1 - He can just sort of blow the guy out; he can turn a disintegrator loose on him one way or the other that will throw this facsimile out of restimulation. He can do that, or 2 - He can actually force this person to move through that facsimile by sort of holding the facsimile there, and he moves the PC through it. He doesn’t get it himself, but here is the penalty of doing this. He will eventually develop a bank of photographs, a bank of facsimiles of facsimiles. He can develop a bank of these, and they can have everything on it, including the density factors, and he can make that bank of facsimiles actually influence him. You understand? They are just mock-ups. Boy, do they blow! They are just a pack of photographs.

How do you identify them? It’s odd, but they will ring on an E-meter. Why? Because they have an indicated amount of charge on them, and the fellow who’s got them says: “Oh yes, it says right here that my density is so dense,” and it will ring on the machine. You will get a little drop on these things. Now here’s the test, you should know this test. This doesn’t mean that the machine is wrong, it means that these things taken over here have a photograph of charge, and they can move in on the guy, and he registers charge. Do you understand? It is entirely different than the guy having the whole facsimile, because it’s a big joke.

Here are his facsimiles of an automobile accident: The facsimile just before the automobile hits (1), Automobile after it is hit (2), And victim being carried away in an ambulance (3). There is nothing else there. There is no sonic of anything pattering down on the pavement, no anything of anything happening; there are just 3 pictures. Usually they are black and white, they are without color, and there they are. If you find that condition in a PC, and he is complaining about this incident, you’ll find out he hasn’t got any motion for this incident. He’s got a still picture of somebody kneeling, that’s one picture (still picture) and he’s got a picture of a grave that’s got a cross on it and you work and work and work, and you can’t make these pictures develop into anything else. They are just there, hardly any real somatics on them. They can be hanging up, however, on an actual facsimile A real facsimile of this individual has these pictures as part of the bundle. Now this is not confusing and you shouldn’t be even vaguely confused about it, because you will find these often enough. They have no sequence to them. The only point that is even vaguely confusing about them is - a heavily charged incident with lots of regret on it, hangs up as a still picture. It’s a still picture, but your PC can’t get rid of it, and these will move around. The only point of confusion is the wheel. That wheel between lives, will show you pictures and pictures, with terrific somatics. Now, that’s all I want to tell you about pictures. Don’t think you can get into trouble by not understanding what I’ve just said here, you can’t get into trouble about it. If you process an incident that isn’t there - well, you’ve just processed an incident that isn’t there. You have just wasted some time, that’s all. You won’t hurt the PC any. Don’t be surprised however, to be processing a still picture, and all of a sudden have the thing blow up and do something terrifically violent. What you did was process the still picture just so far, and all of a sudden your PC went into an actual incident on his own track - BAM! - and it shows up, and is generally far more violent and aberrative than the incident which you were trying to run as still pictures.

It would make it too simple if there weren’t some confusion about visio on the track. You wouldn’t want it to be that simple. I will go over that again. This wheel between lives shows you mock-up pictures, and you think those pictures are pictures of your own memory, and you see them fade out, so you say: “My identity is gone, I’m all done.” What is doing it, is this force screen hitting you - that’s really wiping out your memories.

Now the next one is, that occasionally as a Theta being, you blanketed some MEST body, and grabbed off some facsimiles. You sort them out, and you can find this incident on the track where the Theta being did it. You can find him holding somebody’s head and looking at him, looking it over and saying: “Well well, so that’s what happened to this person, how interesting, fascinating!” Here is a little grimmer one. The MEST body is busily kicking the bucket, dying, and the Theta being that caused it is sitting there alongside, watching it happen and saying: “Well, it’s a good thing he’s dead, look at that awful facsimile, look at what he did. Oh he was a bad one. Gosh, was he horrible, I was perfectly justified in doing this.” He will hang on to these, he’ll say: “Look at that, he killed a baby - ha ha, lucky I killed him.” See, he is trying to justify himself for what has just happened. His bad luck! You can find that incident on the track, and you can run it. It’s a very fascinating one sometimes.

Very often you will get these wheel incidents running, and all of a sudden you find yourself back, and there is this mesty thing right in front of the PC, something like that; or down here somewhere in relationship to his Theta beingness he is looking at it and seeing pictures. He is taking pictures off of somebody’s mind. He is actually examining somebody’s mind. Now that is very peculiar, very peculiar. I hate to have to tell you about that, because it might frighten you that somebody will come along and suddenly blow out all your facsimiles. If I were you, I wouldn’t worry about it, because they have been doing it between lives to you for some time. What’s one more? Now that is simple.

The next point of confusion where you might get upset about pictures and so on is: Once in a great while you will find (this is a rarity) a third, fourth or even fifth invader force being, and he wanted to know what the track looked like. “Who are these people?” he will say as he moves in here as a Theta being. “Who are these people, and what have they been doing?” He will get the whole track - he will cake a sample of all the track. He will just look over somebody, hold ‘em down, sit on them, black them out, knock them flat, do something to them, and sort of make them run through their entire existence. He will say: “So this is what this race has been doing, well, well, well, all the better to control them I hear,” and he will examine their track. This shouldn’t be surprising to you, this transfer of facsimiles, because this is in essence, telepathy. Beings that don’t use airwaves to talk, use telepathy, so they would get quite a store of these things. Oh, they may pound around somebody with some sort of a Technique that puts them to- sleep and then, make them run the track and take samples all the way along the track, complete with age tabs and everything else. They’ll take them all the way along the track and file them all away, and then have in their possession maybe 50 or 75 incidents (just pictures of fifty or seventy-five incidents) that say: This is what the race has been up to.

You get this boy on the E-meter, and everytime you find one of these incidents it goes BONG, you start to run it and it’s gone. You say: “Get a picture now, take a picture of this,” and he starts to run this, and it’s a picture of a Theta Trap. It’s a mock-up, it’s a complete picture of a theta trap, there is no motion to it, no motion in it or anything, but there is a picture, and you get a bop on the machine. A theta trap, such and such a date, such and such a place. Don’t distrust anything you see on the E-meter until the second he starts running this thing, the meter won’t operate. You start running it, and he gets something else. You start running another one, and about this time you will say: “What on earth is the matter with this PC ?” You are running a third, fourth, or fifth invader force individual. He has looked over somebody else’s facsimiles and he is saying: “Well, I’m first corps, I’m first invader force, I’m just like everybody else, here I am.” He’s got a sample of the track showing what has happened to this race. He has just got a record, a historical record that he picked up off somebody - just like you would go to school and study history. So, this guy comes along and looks over somebody’s mind to find out what happened to them on the track, and he will pick up samples of it all the way along the track that’s all. Of course when you take a photograph of a facsimile, you don’t get a flat picture, you get everything - emotional record and everything that goes along with it, but there will only be one, or 2 or 3 pictures of it there, that is all.

The second that you start to process these things, if you process very many of them you will get the incident of him looking into somebody’s mind. All of a sudden he will be sitting there and he will be getting lots of pictures, then you run that incident and all of a sudden he will confess up. After that you don’t get any bops from the line. You ask him: “Was this a million years ago, 2 million years ago, 3 million years ago?” You ask him: “Do you have Fac. One? How long ago, one million years ago?” You get, Bop, Bop. Yes, Fac. One was one million years ago. Yes - Bop, we are all set now. “Now let’s run Fac.One.” So, “Clank, clank,” and he gets the first whir and a position, and that is all. You say: “Go on and run it.”

He gets the first whir and the position, and it is gone again. You say: “Do you have Fac One?” and the meter won’t operate. You have released it, it’s gone, that’s all there was to it. He didn’t have any facsimiles there to erase. He just had a facsimile there for show. It had an emotional tab, it had a speed tab, it had a light tab, it had a time tab, it had everything there that it was supposed to have in it; but for just one shot. You start to process it and - pfsst - of course it blows up, there is no Fac One there. Now, when you see a meter start to do that, don’t start blowing your own brains out.

When you see a PC start to act this way, you just ask this boy “How long have you been in this universe?” You will finally get the answer out of him, and after that everything will be consistent. Then the incidents you run on the whole track will be good solid incidents, and they run all the way through, and they have all their somatics with them, and they’ve got the ridges, and the attention units, and the overt acts. He’s got the whole works after that, for his track.

The third invader force track, and the fourth invader force track are kind of long, and the incidents are remarkably similar, and they don’t even need much discussion. You won’t find many of these people around, but you can find them as a special case, and if I didn’t tell you about special cases, you would run into them and beat your brains out, you would wonder what the heck was happening. So, you will find this character with the still pictures that won’t blow, and you can’t make heads or tails out of him. One second you get an action on the meter, then you don’t get any action the meter - you get an action on another incident, and then nothing else. Well, you are dealing with a later invader force, this guy came into the universe a long time after your standard line, but he sure looked over some standard line guy.

He took him out and combed his hair for him. Now don’t be surprised then of variability’s of this character, because I am giving you all the variability’s there are. It’s not like studying German irregular verbs - “Das ist all der verbs der are,” and then they give you another page - “Dese are all de verbs you use dem with.” So, watch this still picture character; he is either in Intense Regret or he just hasn’t been here very long. You can prove out whether he is in Intense Regret or not, because the thing will eventually start to run if you run regret on it.

Or, all of a sudden he will say: “There is no regret on this,” and all of a sudden it will blow. Well, he is probably a later invader force. You ask him that question directly, and the meter will start operating. Then for the first time, you will see constant and consistent meter operation. Then he will answer the questions, and they will all be consistent. If you get inconsistent operation, you have got the scarce, rare bird who is one of the later invader forces. They aren’t trying to come down here and invade earth, by the way; they! just got caught in the shuffle in the last few thousand years. Things have been pretty hectic around this corner of the galaxy for a little while, and some of the boys got mixed up and squirreled up, one way or another. It’s amusing! Anyway, I’ve given you about all the strange sort of things that you will run into. I have written up lots of these incidents in “What to Audit” (now known as “History of Man”). I am very glad that the data has turned up as it has - I wanted “What to Audit” to be as complete as possible.

You can be specialists all the way up the line, and you can make yourself into a Theta Clear. You can process people on one life if you want to. You have more processing techniques at your command now than you ever conceivably could need. You can produce almost anything you want to. The best way to attack any subject is to get as smart as possible on the subject by going on up the tone scale by the process which I described to you in the past hour, more or less a step by step procedure of what you look for, and what you audit.

Now, about that procedure: The third, fourth, and fifth invader force people are not as old, by a long ways but they have had the same manias, and they have gotten into the same trouble. There are some kicking around that are very new, and very fresh, who have gotten into this trouble on earth. You see them now, inhabiting a body most of the time. Conceivably, there are such people. You are liable to find somebody who hasn’t been here more than 2,000 or even 500 years in a body, or something like that. You are liable to find this rare character. He is very rare, but you will find him, and he has the same background pattern. His case solves in exactly the same way. Resolving the first time he ever did an overt act against a MEST body, and resolving the second dynamic blanket incidents. You run those out, and he will differentiate all of a sudden, where he is. The trouble with this fellow is, he soars almost immediately - he takes of in a steep climb without much processing and he is completely back to battery on what he is doing. He knows what he is doing, he starts telling you.

From that rapid case, we go to an invader one case, and this guy has been on the track an awfully long time, and he has had an awful lot of bodies, and lots of these incidents. You are going to find that you just have to process incidents by the ton off of him before you will get him up to the point where he will take off. But you can process him up there, because it is exactly the same thing that has happened to him, there is just more of it.

Now, one conclusion there - you will occasionally find a Theta Bop, a hunt on the needle. That is a theta bop. It swings over here, it’s a 1, 2, 3, kick deal. It looks like it’s dancing or hunting, and as long as that thing is going on that way, the meter apparently isn’t answering any questions, it just keeps on going like that. It means you are on the right track, in the groove with the questions you are asking; the meter just keeps on acting that way as long as you are right. When you go off the groove, when you ask the wrong question - it stops. You ask the right question again, and it starts hunting again. It is a very interesting manifestation, and it means just one thing. It means that the Theta being itself feels that it is trapped in that incident. It feels that it is still there in that incident. It thinks it is still there, and who knows, some of it may still be there in that incident. So, that is a favored one to locate and audit.

It also means that he feels somewhat degraded. You find Theta bodies departing from MEST bodies (as a final note here) - Theta bodies departing from MEST bodies, and then the MEST body going on living for a short time. Your somatic body leaves last. You can conceivably process out the death of a MEST body in this wise: process it - no grief at all, the person is going right on through the line - process it, it reduces, he goes up in the air - process it, he goes up in the air and it sort of reduces, but nothing much happens to it. Conceivably you can process that. What you are processing is the somatic body. You are processing its leaving, and it doesn’t leave until the last dog’s hung. It doesn’t leave until the last click is unclicked.

Now, what you want is the Theta body departure which is earlier - earlier, faster, and so on. You find quite a bit of grief occasionally on the loss of a MEST body, just as you would suspect. That is one of the reasons why it’s hard to find the Theta body departure, whereas it is easy to find the somatic body departure. You get the idea? Make sure you are getting what you are getting.

Now occasionally, you will find the individual taking off and going straight up, all of a sudden going sort of unconscious and then winding up somewhere else on the time track. He is hitting a screen. EARTH IS EVIDENTLY SCREENED. You start off from earth, and you don’t leave earth. There are occasional sections and areas that have an actual screen to them. Anybody who knows anything about compasses should know that there is a screen here on earth. It’s not natural for these lines of variation and deviation to behave as they do. They are not in a central point where they ought to be - the whole thing is kind of hazy and funny, and it’s possibly got something to do with this screen, although I won’t guarantee it.

I’m actually giving you this as a word of warning. You think I’m being ridiculous, but just as a caution until I find out a little more about this, I wouldn’t advise your taking off from earth. Just hold off for a while, I’ll put a bulletin out, or maybe we’ll send out some scouts with Geiger counters or something of the sort and find if there are any holes, because I know that the screen is there, because every once in a while a PC takes off and he says: “I’m going straight up here” and all of a sudden - Zing - and he forgets after that. Occasionally that was the way people got trapped into this line. They started to take off from earth - Zing - and they are right back in the MEST body line, and they don’t belong here. It is very puzzling to them. So, there is something there, and I won’t tell you what its altitude is, because I’m not sure, but it is probably 27 to 50 miles, but it is up there. As a matter of fact we could dream up a radar that would cross that other screen or perhaps measure its distance. There are a lot of things like this; there are a lot of interesting pieces of monkey business like this.

There is one - occasionally you will run into a place where they are holding a body in pawn. Now get that term, “They are holding a body in pawn.” That is, a body is held here and it is hypnotized or knocked out, and the person is told that he belongs here, but he must go over there and live. You know - a guy in Afghanistan is hypnotized and told: “You live in Bremerton, Washington”, and he will go to Bremerton and hang around there - he is under a compulsion. A hypnotist can hypnotize somebody and make him travel (or astral walk) hypnotists know about this, it is fairly easy to do. Only they didn’t realize that you could do it with magnitude, and you can, you can move almost the whole individual out.

A Theta body - I’m just bringing this up for one point only - a Theta body can be hypnotized, can be put to sleep, can go to sleep, can be made to forget, can be given various hypnotic suggestions, can be lowered on the tone scale, raised on the tone scale, and can have its identity blotted out. In Fac. One for instance, the waves are hitting a MEST body and piling up, but where they are really piling up is against the outer shell of a Theta body. That MEST body is long dead, and you are no longer even vaguely connected with the somatic or evolutionary lines of those bodies you had in Fac. One, but you are still packing this with the Theta body. It is still aberrative. In other words, the Theta body can be aberrated by electronic fields, by drugs, by other contacts against the MEST body, or against itself. Now, it can be handled, actually only with heavy electronic fields when it is by itself. There isn’t anything else that can hit it. Nothing can hit it - bullets make a little swirl through it, drugs, they don’t eat, so how could they take drugs - gases, none of these things could harm it, and as far as bumps or blows are concerned ....

There is one rather amusing incident - this fellow has always been kind of mad at horses. He was sailing down the road one day over in Flanders, a few hundred, a few thousand years ago. He was sailing down this road minding his own business, and all of a sudden a dispatch rider coming from somewhere or other, runs into him - crash! Of course this fellow is a Theta being while he is sailing down this road, and he is just sailing down the road because it is giving him a direction. He is making progress nicely and this fool horse runs into him, at flat head-on speed. He didn’t get any somatic on the horse running into him, but he did get this - the sudden fright of the horse at being (what he thought) blinded, a film going across his face. The horse snorts and screams, and then the Thetan bounces and goes into the teeth of the rider, and it’s the riders theta impulse of repulsion and fear which makes a somatic. So we run this incident, and this fellow hits the face of the horse, and hits the rider. At no time was it the impact. Each time it was simply the electronic kick-back - one of the horse, which was emotion - and one of the rider, which was a Theta being kick-back. Both of them make ridges. Now, that is just a stupid little incident. Something like this happens to a Theta being, and the Theta being goes on being mad at horses.

You will find then that nothing much can touch these, but fields. When you are running on the track, and you are running Theta being incidents, those that are aberrative are from these 2 factors: (1) From an emotional output or an emotional charge coming from another being, a heavy emotional charge coming from another being can register on a Theta being, and (2) An electronic field can register a Theta being, and that is all that can register on a Theta being.

You want to know what a Theta Being is? Well, be one for a while - find out. Now don’t blame me for anything that happens to you from here on out. I waive responsibility for anything that you do. I’m afraid that sometimes it will be horrible to contemplate.

I can see it now! That is one of liabilities of making a Theta Clear who isn’t whole track clear. The whole track clear you see, would be awfully kind, benign, and getting into action, and getting things done, and totally unaberrated, but if you just clear him enough to step out of the body, and when you stop and think of all the people he would probably get even with, and if he had no slightest liability in getting even with them - chaos could reign. It’s something to think about.

You have a definite duty about all this. You have a duty to find out and prove to the ultimate, whether or not I am right about this Technique. That is to say, to try it out on yourself and find out if it’s there. It’s a duty. You couldn’t possibly ruin anything by trying this Technique. You realize that, you have processed enough incidents out of yourself and out of your PCs to demonstrate to you that incidents are incidents. You can handle all sorts of incidents, so you should prove it to yourself what you can do along this line.

Now, before you take off permanently for any place, I wish you would write me a letter. I would like very much, when you start processing again, for you to give me a note on how you are doing with this Technique, and also on how you are not doing with it, or if you run into any bugs on it. Most particularly, I would appreciate this: I will send you a brand new individual Track Map for every Track Map completed, or that has 50 hours of processing recorded on it. I will send you a brand new Track Map for every one of those you send me. Now, if you will notice, the track numbers its incidents by the number of years ago they occurred. That makes them standard. That makes it sound like an awful lot of incidents (which it isn’t) that are on that track that are very bad or a lot of maybes, but note the number of years ago (approximately) that an incident took place, and note it on the track map. You get a map with about 50 hours of auditing on it, and you decide you want a new track map for somebody else. Well, if you send it to me, in a little while we will have Track Map Issue 2, because what we will get there is just a wide level of agreement. That is what those track maps need on certain subjects. We will find that a certain incident keeps showing up, here it is on 10 track maps, this one incident. We will have to assume then, that this incident is pretty standard. By the time we get 50 completed track maps in, we will have a pretty good view. We are rather prone in this society to think that what we are doing is of little account.

We would blink twice, any one of us, if it should suddenly occur to us that we were making history. Making history is what you are doing however, no pun intended. In writing the chart of the human race - the chart of where it’s been, and what it’s done, and so on - it is writing a preparation for a lot or knowledge, a lot of advances, that would never have been possible before. Something else is possible in all this. In Dianetics in the past, it has been the hope, a consistent and continual hope of all of you, and or mine; that we could process people up to a point, and process ourselves up to a point, where we would have a point of vantage, even if it was only to display ourselves as to how much good it had done for us, a point of vantage from which to operate. That here we had a subject which has inherent in it, an ability to completely alter the future course of this civilization. It has been our hope I know, that amongst us would arise individuals inherently, natively, or through the practices of Dianetics, who would be at such a high level, and such a vantage point of capability, that this would be a very smoothly running process, be a very orderly planned progress forward in society. That takes people of unusual capabilities.

For the first time - whether you are ever able to separate from your MEST body or not (that’s completely aside from the point, that’s a stunt) whether you ever want to or not, that’s beside the point. This is not beside the point - that the Techniques which lead toward it will raise you higher on the tone scale than anything in the past has ever been able to raise you. You have in your palm now, for the first time, techniques which can boost and raise your potentialities and capabilities as you once hoped Dianetics could raise them. You have those techniques now. In using these techniques, it is inevitable that amongst us here, individuals will attain levels of capability and foresight whereby much can happen in this society, which has not happened heretofore, which has not been possible before.

Thus we should, before we adventure too far along this line, take a look at what we are doing, and maybe be a little less dishonest than most human beings are. Most human beings are very dishonest when they face anything which they know is going to be a big change. They say: “Oh no, Oh no, it couldn’t possibly be a change, I mean everything is going to be the same. It’s going to remain the same. It isn’t very big, it doesn’t amount to very much, it doesn’t amount to very much, because I am alive today and it’s happening while I’m here, and when my father was there, nothing happened while he was alive, and so of course nothing could happen to me.” No, we are staring at change, and there is going to be change, and it requires that some action be taken in the field of Dianetics itself to guarantee some sort of an orderly cohesion to a plan.

You may or may not realize this, but a great many people who would never have worked out, have been thrown by the boards as coldly and as brutally as you turn a dog out into the alley that you don’t want any more. Separating from a society as a whole, you will find and have found for the last 2 years, separating out of the organization, those people who couldn’t have kept the pace. Now that’s a heck of a thing! They didn’t want to. Well, there are techniques now, enough so, that they could have been brought in anyway, they could be right with us today. It was at that time impossible to deliver training or processing fast enough to bring those people up along the line so that this organization, so that the Dianetic community itself could keep its level and keep its pace and keep going somehow, until the moment which I announced to you right now, arrived - when it is possible to take a human being, and with main strength and awkwardness, beat him into shape to where he is just about a thousand times as perfect as man ever thought man could be, and we can do that now.

We could do that if the MEST body and the Theta body never separated. This technique must work for you - it will work for you. There is no question about that, but I want it to work now, I want it to work rapidly. I don’t want you to have any trouble with it. I want to thank you very much for your attention during these last 5 nights. You have been a very good audience, and I hope that this material has shaped up for you, so that you know what it is. I want to express my appreciation for your very fine interest and eagerness in this subject. Thank you very much.
