Lecture: States of Identity
So we have—we have actually been advancing above the most extravagant goal of psychotherapy, mental treatment, religious increase of beingness and so on. We’ve been— we’ve been way above this for a very long time. We could still make today, in a very short space of time, the original goal of betterment which was bodhi. [...]
Lecture: Security Checking: Auditing Errors
Now, the poor old Catholic church that I have raised so much the devil with occasionally, from time to time . . the poor old Catholic church . . for the lack of this datum which we’re talking about right this minute, has developed all of its heretics, its Martin Luthers and the lot. The [...]
Lecture: Teaching the Field Sec Checks
Now, withholds don’t add up to withholds. They add up to overts1, they add up to secrecies, they add up to individuations2, they add up to games conditions3, they add up to a heck of a lot more things than O/W4, although we carelessly call them withholds. We’re asking a person to straighten out their [...]
Lecture: Basics of Auditing, Matter-of-Factness
They covertly get on our bulletin lines, which is quite interesting. We have all sorts of Joe Doakeses and Bill Smykes . . Sykeses and things like that in our mailing lists and so on in order to get bulletins and memberships, and so on. And these turn out to be the most interesting people [...]
Lecture: The Randomities of Communication
The day a dog opens his mouth and says hello to you, you would have a fifth dynamic1. Dogs, we know, do a certain amount of live communication. Their communication pattern, by the way, follows the same aberrative pattern as anyone else’s. Dogs have comm lags and obsessive communication and all sorts of things. It’s [...]

Lecture: Fundamentals of Auditing
I try to use, by and large, simple English. Very few of these definitions or Axioms in Scientology have complicated words in them. They either have a made-up word out of whole cloth; take some adjective and make a noun out of it, something, just a whole cloth, because there is no place, no hole [...]
Lecture: Pan-Determinism (3)
We discover immediately a fact which I have known for a very long time but which was too horrible to tell you. That’s right, that’s a fact. I have known this fact for, oh, certainly, two years and have simply stuffed it in my back pocket and skipped it until I could lick it. And [...]
Lecture: Pan-Determinism and One-Way Flows
As we look over this field of pan-determinism1, we better have a very, very, very good idea of what we’re talking about. I want to say just a few words about this – and we’ll talk about it again. The pan-determinism is the willingness to exercise control – determinism, same deal [...]
Lecture: Two-Way Comm And The Present Time Problem
Now, there’s a thing called a confessional which was the basic psychotherapy that man had. The Catholic Church rather monopolized this, they, I don’t know if you know how a confessional is carried on or not but it’s a… I could go into this in considerable detail but won’t. But the [...]
