1. 8-C

8-C, 1. control (Routine 8-Control). (HCOB 20 Aug 71 II) 2 . essentially and intimately the operation of making the physical body contact the environment. (5410CM08) 3 . name of a process. Also used to mean good control. (HCOB 23 Aug 65) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

2. Admin Scale

ADMIN SCALE, I have developed a scale for use which gives a sequence (and relative seniority) of subjects relating to organization: goals purposes policy plans programs projects orders ideal scenes stats valuable final products. This scale is worked up and worked down until it is (each item) in full agreement with the remaining items. In short, for success all these items in the scale must agree with all other items in the scale on the same subject. (HCO PL 6 Dec 70) See SCALE OF IMPORTANCE. -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined

3. Affinity

AFFINITY, 1. the feeling of love or liking for something or someone. Affinity is a phenomena of space in that it expresses the willingness to occupy the same place as the thing which is loved or liked. The reverse of it would be antipathy, "dislike" or rejection which would be the unwillingness to occupy the same space as or the unwillingness to approach something or someone. It came from the French, affinite, affinity, kindred, alliance, nearness and also from the Latin, affnis, meaning near, bordering upon. (LRH Def. Notes) 2. the ability to occupy the space of, or be like or similar to, or to express a willingness to be something. (SH Spec 83, 6612C06) 3 . the relative distance and similarity of the two ends of a communication line. (Dn 55!, p. 35) 4 . emotional response; the feeling of affection or the lack of it, of emotion or misemotion connected with life. (HCOB 21 Jun 71 I) 5 . the attraction which exists between two human beings or between a human being and another life organism or between a human being and mest or theta or the Supreme Being. It has a rough parallel in the physical universe in magnetic and gravitic attraction. The affinity or lack of affinity between an organism and the environment or between the theta and mest of an organism and within the theta (including entheta) of the organism brings about what we have referred to as emotions. (SOS Gloss) 6 . in its truest definition which is coincidence of location and beingness, that is the ultimate in affinity. (9ACC- 10, 5412CM20) --L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

4. Altitude

ALTITUDE, 1. a prestige which the auditor has in the eyes of the preclear. A somewhat artificial position of the auditor which gives the preclear greater confidence and therefore greater ability to run than he would otherwise have. (SOS Gloss) 2. a difference of level of prestige--one in a higher altitude carries conviction to one on a lower altitude merely because of altitude. (DMSMH, p. 343) --L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

5. Anaten

ANATEN, 1 . an abbreviation of analytical attenuation meaning diminution or weakening of the analytical awareness of an individual for a brief or extensive period of time. If sufficiently great, it can result in unconsciousness. (It stems from the restimulation of an engram which contains pain and unconsciousness.) (Scn AD) 2 . simply a drop in ARC to an extreme. (PAB 70) 3 . the physiological by-product of unconsciousness. (SOS, Bk. 2, p. 170) 4. dope-off. (Abil 52) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

6. Antisocial Personality

ANTISOCIAL PERSONALITY, 1. there are certain characteristics and mental attitudes which cause about 20 per cent of a race to oppose violently any betterment activity or group. Such people are known to have antisocial tendencies. (ISE, p. 9) 2. we're calling it a suppressive because it is more explicit. (SH Spec 78, 6608C25) See also SUPPRESSIVE PERSON. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary ANTISOCIAL PERSONALITY, 1. the antisocial personality has the following attributes: (1) he or she speaks only in very broad generalities. (2) such a person deals mainly in bad news, critical or hostile remarks, invalidation and general suppression. (3) the antisocial personality alters, to worsen communication when he or she relays a message or news. Good news is stopped and only bad news, often embellished, is passed along. (4) a characteristic, and one of the sad things about an antisocial personality, is that it does not respond to treatment or reform or psychotherapy. (5) surrounding such a personality we find cowed or ill associates or friends who, when not driven actually insane, are yet behaving in a crippled manner in life, failing, not succeeding. (6) the antisocial personality habitually selects the wrong target. (7) the antisocial cannot finish a cycle of action. (8) many antisocial persons will freely confess to the most alarming crimes when forced to do so, but will have no faintest sense of responsibility for them. (9) the antisocial personality supports only destructive groups and rages against and attacks any constructive or betterment group. (10) this type of personality approves only of destructive actions and fights against constructive or helpful actions or activities. (11) helping others is an activity which drives the antisocial personality nearly berserk. Activities, however, which destroy in the name of help are closely supported. (12) the antisocial personality has a bad sense of property and conceives that the idea that anyone owns anything is a pretense made up to fool people. Nothing is ever really owned. (HCOB 27 Sept 66) 2. the suppressive person. You, in speaking of it, actually marry up with old technology because they have looked for this fellow called the antisocial person for a long time. Freud used the term. Psychologists use the term. They've used the term for a long time. They know there is such a person called the antisocial personality and this is the personality for which they have been groping. We're calling it a suppressive because it is more explicit. (SH Spec 78, 6608C25) -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined

7. ARC

ARC, 1 . a word from the initial letters of Afflnity, Reality, Communication which together equate to Understanding. It is pronounced by stating its letters, AR- C. To Scientologists it has come to mean good feeling, love or friendliness, such as "He was in ARC with his friend." One does not, however, fall out of ARC, he has an ARC break. (LRH Def. Notes) 2 . ARC=Understanding and Time. A=Space and the willingness to occupy the same space of. R=Mass or agreement. C=Energy or Recognition. (HCOB 27 Sept 68 II) 3 . affinity is a type of energy and can be produced at will. Reality is agreement; too much agreement under duress brings about the banishment of one's entire consciousness. Communication, however, is far more important than affinity or reality, for it is the operation, the action by which one experiences emotion and by which one agrees. (PAB 1) 4 . the triagonal manifestation of theta each aspect affecting the other two. (SOS Gloss) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

8. ARC Break

ARC BREAK, 1 . a sudden drop or cutting of one's affinity, reality, or communication with someone or something. Upsets with people or things come about because of a lessening or sundering of affinity, reality, or communication or understanding. It's called an ARC break instead of an upset, because, if one discovers which of the three points of understanding have been cut, one can bring about a rapid recovery in the person's state of mind. It is pronounced by its letters A-R-C break. When an ARC break is permitted to continue over too long a period of time and remains in restimulation, a person goes into a "sad effect" which is to say they become sad and mournful, usually without knowing what is causing it. This condition is handled by finding the earliest ARC break on the chain, finding whether it was a break in affinity, reality, communication, or understanding and indicating it to the person, always, of course, in session. (LRH Def. Notes) 2 . an incomplete cycle of some kind or another. It's a lowering of Affinity, Reality and Communication, so we call it an ARC break. It's a sudden down curve. It's a highly technical term. It means exactly what it says but its incept and so forth is an incompete cycle of action. (SH Spec 65, 6507C27) Abbr. ARCX. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

9. Auditor

AUDITOR, 1. one who listens and computes; a Scn practitioner. (HCOB 26 May 59) 2 . one who has been trained in the technology of Scn. An auditor applies standard technology to preclears. (Aud 18 UK) 3 . a person who through church training becomes skilled in the successful application of Dn and Scn to his family, friends and the public to achieve the ability gained as stated on the Gradation Chart for his class of training. (FBDL 18, 2 Dec 70) 4 . Scn processing is done on the principle of making an individual look at his own existence, and improve his ability to confront what he is and where he is. An auditor is the person trained in the technology and whose job it is to ask the person to look, and get him to do so. The word auditor is used because it means one who listens, and a Scn auditor does listen. (Scn 0-8, p. 14) 5 . the word auditor is used, not "operator" or "therapist," because auditing is a cooperative effort between the auditor and the patient, and the law of affinity is at work. (DMSMH, p. 175) Abbr. Aud. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

10. Bad Indicator

BAD INDICATORS, the condition isn't getting any better, not getting a lessening of the condition. Because we're not getting a lessening of the condition we therefore have losses. (SH Spec 3 6401C09) See also INDICATORS. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

11. Basic Personality

BASIC PERSONALITY, 1. a person's own identity. (FOT, p. 31) 2. the basic personality, the file clerk, the core of "I" which wants to be in command of the organism, the most fundamental desires of the personality, may be considered synonymous for our purposes. (DMSMH, p. 394) 3. the individual himself. (DMSMH, p. 394) Abbr. B.P. (BP). -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

12. Being other bodies

BEING OTHER BODIES, 1 . out of valence; being another identity than his own. He's in one body and he's being another body. (5904C08) 2. that's shame. There is an emotion of shame connected with being other bodies. One is ashamed to be oneself, he is somebody else. (5904C08) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

13. Beingness

BEINGNESS, 1 . the assumption or choosing of a category of identity. Beingness is assumed by oneself or given to oneself, or is attained. Examples of beingness would be one's own name, one's profession, one's physical characteristics, one's role in a game--each and all of these things could be called one's beingness. (NSOL, p. 50) 2 . the person one should be in order to survive. (SH Spec 19, 6106C23) 3 . essentially, an identification of self with an object. (COHA, p. 76) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

14. Beingness of Man

BEINGNESS OF MAN, essentially the beingness of theta itself acting in the mest and other universes in the accomplishment of the goals of theta and under the determination of a specific individual and particular personality for each being. (Scn 8-8008, p. 11) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

15. Beingness processing

BEINGNESS PROCESSING, is an alter-isness process. When a case is extremely inverted it is necessary to get the case up to a level where it can identify itself with something. Beingness is essentially identification of self with an object. In running beingness processing it will be discovered that the imagination of the preclear revives to a marked extent. Beingness processing recovers the various valences which the thetan is trying to avoid. The matter of valences is also a matter of packages of abilities, and where an individual is unable to be something which has certain definite abilities, he also cannot achieve those abilities, and this, in itself, is the heart of disability. (COHA, pp. 76-79) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

16. Black Dianetics

BLACK DIANETICS, 1 . hypnotism. (5109C17A) 2 . unscrupulous groups and individuals have been practicing a form a Black Dianetics on their fellow man for centuries. They have not called it that but the results have been and are the same. There are those who, to control, resort to narcotics, suggestion, gossip, slander--the thousands of overt and covert ways that can be classified as Black Dianetics. (Scn Jour Iss 3G) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

17. Black Propaganda

BLACK PROPAGANDA, 1., about the most involved involved employment of PR is its covert use in destroying the repute of individuals and groups. More correctly this is technically called black propaganda. (HCO PL 11 May 71 III). 2. (black=bad or derogatory, propaganda=pushing out statements or ideas), the term used to destroy reputation or public belief in persons, companies or nations. It is a common tool of agencies who are seeking to destroy real or fancied enemies or seek dominance in some field. (HCO PL 21 Nov 72 I) 3. the activity called black propaganda consists of spreading lies by hidden sources. It inevitably results in injustices being done by those who operate without verifying the truth. (OODs 17 May 71)4. when PR is used for the destruction of ideals or institutions or repute of persons, it is called, traditionally, black PR. This is usually covert and a distortion of truth or a whole cloth fabrication. (HCO PL 7 Aug 72) 5. black propaganda is in its technical accuracy, a covert operation where unknown authors publicly effect a derogatory reaction and then remain unknown. (HCO PL 11 May 71 III) 6. a covert attack on the reputation of a person, company or nation using slander and lies in order to weaken or destroy. (HCO PL 21 Nov 72 I) 7. black PR also uses imagination in order to degrade or vilify or discredit an existing or fancied image. (HCO PL 7 Aug 72) Abbr. Black PR. -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined

18. Blow

BLOW, v. leave hurriedly. (HCO PL 25 Jun 72) -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined BLOW-OFFS, departures, sudden and relatively unexplained from sessions, posts, jobs, locations and areas. One can treat people so well that they grow ashamed of themselves, knowing they don't deserve it, that a blow-off is precipitated, and certainly one can treat people so badly that they have no choice but to leave, but these are extreme conditions and in between these we have the majority of departures: people leave because of their own overts and withholds. That is the factual fact and the hard bound rule. A man with a clean heart can't be hurt. The man or woman who must must must become a victim and depart is departing because of his or her own overts and withholds. It doesn't matter whether the person is departing from a town or a job or a session. The cause is the same. (HCOB 31 Dec 59) -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined BLOWS, n. desertions. (HCO PL 22 Sept 70) -v. recognizing the source of an aberration in processing "blows" it, makes it vanish. (HCO PL 18 Sept 67) -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined

19. Brainwash

BRAINWASHING, 1. brainwashing is a very simple mechanism. One gets a person to agree that something might be a certain way and then drives him by introverting him and through self-criticism to the possibility that it is that way. Only then does a man believe that the erroneous fact was a truth. By gradient scale of hammering, pounding and torture, brainwashers are able to make people believe that these people saw and did things which they never did do. But its effectiveness is minor as Russia does not know enough about the mind, even though we recently taught nothing but German-- Russian theory in our schools. (AA-R, p. 84) 2. is actually that technique by Pavlov which makes the dog believe that he can't tell the difference between a bell and a buzzer. Now I'll untangle that for you. They ring a bell and feed the dog, and they ring a bell and feed the dog, and they ring a bell and feed the dog. Now the dog is conditioned (psychological term) to be fed when the bell rings. Now, they buzz a buzzer and beat the dog, and buzz a buzzer and beat the dog, and they buzz a buzzer and beat the dog, and they buzz a buzzer and beat the dog. Now what they're really doing is adding up a bunch of engrams, they aren't conditioning him at all. And then they gradually reduce the sound of the bell to the sound of the buzzer, and reduce the sound of the buzzer to the sound of the bell till the dog can't tell the difference between the buzzer and the bell and at that moment he goes psychotic. He can't tell whether he's going to be beaten or fed. That is brainwashing. It is specific technology. (6804SM-) 3. changing the values of things. (6804SM-) 4. is subjection of a person to systematic indoctrination or mental pressure with a view to getting him to change his views or to confess to a crime. (HCO PL 20 Dec 69 VIII) -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined © 1976

20. Button

BUTTON(S), 1 . items, words, phrases, subjects or areas that cause response or reaction in an individual by the words or actions of other people, and which cause him discomfort, embarrassment, or upset, or make him laugh uncontrollably. (Scn AD) 2 . things in particular that each human being finds aberrative and has in common. (HFP, p. 127) 3 . restimulators, words, voice tones, music, whatever they are--things which are filed in the reactive mind bank as parts of engrams. (DMSMH, p. 74) 4 . (suppress button, invalidate button, etc.), it is called a button because when you push it (say it) you can get a meter reaction. (HCOB 29 Jan 70) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

21. By-passed charge

BY-PASSED CHARGE, 1 . mental energy or mass that has been restimulated in some way in an individual, and that is either partially or wholly unknown to that individual and so is capable of affecting him adversely. (Scn AD) 2 . when one gets a lock, a lower earlier incident restimulates. That is BPC. It isn't the auditor by-passing it. One handled later charge that restimulated earlier charge. That is BPC (tech of ‘62), and that is all that the term means. (HCOB 10 Jun 72 I) 3 . reactive charge that has been by-passed (restimulated but overlooked by both pc and auditor). (BCR, p. 21) Abbr. BPC. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

22. By-passed charge assessment

BY-PASSED CHARGE ASSESSMENT, 1 . auditing by list to help the preclear find by-passed charge. The moment the correct by-passed charge is found the preclear feels much better. (Scn AD) 2 . a BPC assessment is actual auditing (Level III). Here one cleans each smallest read of a question (but not cleaning cleans), before going onto the next question, handling originations by the pc and acknowledging. One never does this with an ARC broken pc. With an ARC break one just ploughs on looking for a big read and indicates it to pc. (BCR, p. 41) 3 . a by-passed charge assessment is auditing because you clean every read of the needle on the list being assessed. The pc is acked, the pc is permitted to itsa and give his opinions. But you never do a by-passed charge assessment on an ARC broken pc. These two different activities (by-passed charge assessment and ARC break assessment) unfortunately have the word assessment in common and they use the same lists, therefore some students confuse them. (HCOB 7 Sept 64 II) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

23. Case Supervisor

CASE SUPERVISOR, 1 . that person in a Scientology Church who gives instructions regarding, and supervises the auditing of preclears. The abbreviation C/S can refer to the Case Supervisor or to the written instructions of a case supervisor depending on context. (BTB 12 Apr 72R) 2 . the C/S is the case supervisor. He has to be an accomplished and properly certified auditor and a person trained additionally to supervise cases. The C/S is the auditor's "handler." He tells the auditor what to do, corrects his tech, keeps the lines straight and keeps the auditor calm and willing and winning. The C/S is the pc's case director. His actions are donefor the pc. (Dn Today, Bk. 3, p. 545) Abbr. C/S. See also C/S. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

24. CCH

CCHs, 1. a highly workable set of processes starting with control, going to communication and leading to havingness in that order. The CCHs are auditing specifically aimed at and using all the parts of the two way comm formula. (BTB 12 Sept 63) 2 . several associated processes which bring a person into better control of his body and surroundings, put him into better communication with his surroundings and other people, and increase his ability to have things for himself. They bring him into the present, away from his past problems. (Scn AD) 3 . actually, control, communication and havingness. When you apply control, you obtain communication which gives the preclear havingness. And it is a method of entrance on cases which is rather infallible. (SH Spec 9, 6106C07) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

25. Claims Verification Board

CLAIMS VERIFICATION BOARD, hereafter, no refund or repayment may be made by any org without its being passed by Claims Verification Board. The Board is established under the Finance Bureau of the Guardian Office. The purpose of this CVB is to prevent the payment of false claims and to see to the validity and payment of claims. (BPL 14 Nov 74) Abbr. CVB. -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined

26. Clay Demo

CLAY DEMO, abbreviation for clay demonstration. A Scn study technique whereby the student demonstrates definitions, principles, etc. in clay to obtain greater understanding by translating significance into actual mass. (BTB 12 Apr 72R) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

27. Clay Pigeon

CLAY PIGEON, any staff member who does not know ethics policy is a clay pigeon. Clay pigeons are used to throw up in the air and shoot at. (HCO PL 24 Feb 72) -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined

28. Clay Table Clearing

CLAY TABLE CLEARING, 1 . a process of clearing words and symbols. (HCOB 9 Sept 64) 2 . as one Scn remedy for increased IQ and destimulation, clay table clearing is audited by an auditor in a session. The entire effort by the auditor in a session of clay table clearing is to help the pc regain confidence in being able to achieve things by removing the misunderstandings which have prevented that achievement. (HCOB 18 Aug 64) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

29. Clay Table Healing

CLAY TABLE HEALING, gets the pc to name the condition the pc requires to be handled and gets the pc to represent this in clay. The whole process is flat when the condition has vanished. Clay table healing is a very precise series of actions. (HCOB 9 Sept 64) [The above is a very brief summary only. The full series of steps can be found in the referenced HCOB.] Abbr. CTH. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

30. Clay Table IQ Processing

CLAY TABLE IQ PROCESSING, 1 . trace back (with no meter) what word or term the pc failed to grasp in the subject chosen. Get the pc to make up the mass represented by the word in clay and any related masses. Get them all labeled and explained. I.Q. (intelligence quotient or the relative brightness of the individual) can be rocketed out of sight with HGC use of a clay table. (HCOB 17 Aug 64) 2 . the original issue of "Clay Table Clearing" was called "Clay Table I.Q. Processing." (HCOB 27 Sept 64) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

31. Clay Table Processing

CLAY TABLE PROCESSING, 1. the clay table presents us with a new series of processes. The preclear is made to make in clay and labels whatever he or she is currently worried about or hasn't understood in life. The essence of clay table processing is to get the pc to work it out. In auditing the pc tells the auditor. This is still true in clay table processing. (HCOB 17 Aug 64) 2. the pc handles the mass. The auditor does not suggest subjects or colors or forms. The auditor just finds out what should be made and tells the pc to do it in clay and labels. And keeps calling for related objects to be done in clay. (HCOB 17 Aug 64) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

32. Clay Table Training

CLAY TABLE TRAINING, the student is given a word or auditing action or situation to demonstrate. He then does this in clay. (HCOB 11 Oct 67) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

33. Clear

CLEAR, n. 1 . a thetan who can be at cause knowingly and at will over mental matter, energy, space and time as regards the first dynamic (survival for self). The state of Clear is above the release grades (all of which are requisite to clearing) and is attained by completion of the Clearing Course at an Advanced Organization. (ScnAD) 2 . a Clear, in an absolute sense, would be someone who could confront anything and everything in the past, present and future. (Abil Mag 56) 3 . a Clear is not an all-knowing being. A Clear is somebody who has lost the mass, energy, space and time connected with the thing called mind . ( SH Spec 80, 6609C08) 4 . a picture is completely unnecessary for any kind of a recall at all which is probably about the only change there has been from the definition of a Book One Clear. (SH Spec 59, 6504C27) 5 . a Clear has no vicious reactive mind and operates at total mental capacity just like the first book (DMSMH) said. In fact every early definition of Clear is found to be correct. (HCOB 2 Apr 65) 6 . the name of a button on an adding machine. When you push it, all the hidden answers in the machine clear and the machine can be used for a proper computation. So long as the button is not pressed the machine adds all old answers to all new efforts to compute and wrong answers result. Really, that's all a Clear is. Clears are beings who have been cleared of wrong answers or useless answers which keep them from living or thinking. (Aud 4 UK) 7 . a Clear has risen from the analogy between the mind and the computing machine. Before a computer can be used to solve a problem, it must be cleared of old problems, of old data and conclusions. Otherwise, it will add all the old conclusions into the new one and produce an invalid answer. Processing clears more and more of these problems from the computer. The completely cleared individual would have all his self-determinism in present time and would be completely self-determined. (Abil 114A) 8 . a thetan clesred of enforced and unwanted behavior patterns and discomforts. (HCOB 8 May 63) 9 . simply an awareness of awareness unit which knows it's an awareness of awareness unit, can create energy at will, and can handle and control, erase or re-create an analytical mind or reactive mind. (Dn 55 .l pp. 17-18)1 0 . a person who can have or not have at will anything in the universe. (5412CM06) 1 1 . an unaberrated person. He is rational in that he forms the best possible solutions he can on the data he has and from his viewpoint. He obtains the maximum pleasure for the organism, present and future, as well as for the subjects along the other dynamics. The Clear has no engrams which can be restimulated to throw out the correctness of computation by entering hidden and false data in it. (DMSMH, p. 111) 1 2 . one who has become the basic individual through auditing. (DTOT, p. 33) --v. 1 . to clear: to release all the physical pain and painful emotion from the life of an individual. (DMSMH, p. 170) -- L. Ron Hubbbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

34. Cleared Cannibal

CLEARED CANNIBAL, the individual without engrams seeks survival along all of the dynamics in accordance with his breadth of understanding. This does not mean that a Zulu who has been cleared of all his engrams would not continue to eat missionaries if he were a cannibal by education; but it does mean that he would be as rational as possible about eating missionaries; further, it would be easier to re-educate him about eating missionaries if he were a Clear. (SOS, p. 110) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

35. Close Terminals

CLOSED TERMINALS, when one begins to identify, one has "closed terminals" too closely, and believes one terminal is another terminal. PAB 63) See also SNAPPING TERMINALS. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

36. Cognition

COGNITING, as-ising1 aberration with a realization about life. (HCOB 26 Apr 71 I) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary 1 as-ising means to see something as it is, at which time the emotional charge disappears or "blows." COGNITION, 1 . as-ising aberration with a realization about life. (HCOB 26 Apr 71 I) 2 . a pc origination indicating he has "Come to realize." It's a "What do you know, I . . ." statement. (HCOB 14 May 69 II) 3 . something a pc suddenly understands or feels. "Well, what do you know about that?" (HCOB 25 Feb 60) Abbr. Cog. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

37. Committee of Evidence

COMMITTEE OF EVIDENCE, 1. a committee of evidence is not a court. It is simply a fact-finding body with legal powers, convened to get at the facts and clean up the ARC breaks caused by rumor. When it has the truth of it, then a convening authority acts-but only in exact accordance with a justice code. (HCO PL 27 Mar 65) 2. a fact-finding body composed of impartial persons properly convened by a convening authority which hears evidence from persons it calls before it, arrives at a finding and makes a full report and recommendation to its convening authority for his or her action. (HCO PL 7 Sept 63) 3. a fact-finding group appointed and empowered to impartially investigate and recommend upon Scn matters of a fairly severe ethical nature. (ISE, p. 28) 4. a Committee of Evidence is considered the most severe form of ethics action. A staff member may not be suspended or demoted or transferred illegally out of his division or dismissed without a Committee of Evidence. (HCO PL 29 Apr 65 III) 5. a Committee of Evidence is convened by the Office of LRH through the HCO Secretary and is composed of staff members. Its purpose is entirely to obtain evidence and recommend action which the Office of LRH then modifies or orders. If a person is wrongly dismissed, demoted or transferred he or she may request a Committee of Evidence from the HCO Secretary and may have recourse. (HCO PL 10 Apr 65) Abbr. Comm Ev. -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined

38. Communication

COMMUNICATION, 1. the consideration and action of impelling an impulse or particle from source point across a distance to receipt point with the intention of bringing into being at the receipt point a duplication and understanding of that which emanated from the source point. (HCOB 5 Apr 73) 2. the first and most basic definition of any part of communication is that communication or any part thereof is a consideration. As duplication is a consideration, communication is possible to the degree that the preclear can freely make considerations. (COHA, pp. 170-171) 3. the operation, the action, by which one experiences emotion and by which one agrees. Communication is not only the modus operandi, it is the heart of life and is by thousands of per cent the senior in importance to affinity and reality. (PAB 1) 4. any ritual by which effects can be produced and perceived. Thus a letter, a bullet, the output of theta "flitter" are all, to us, communication. (PAB 4) 5. the ability to translate sympathy or some component of sympathy from one terminal to another terminal. (Spr Lect 5, 5303CM25) 6. an interchange of energy from one beingness to another in the thetan, and in Homo sapiens, communication is known as perception. (Scn 8- 8008, p. 21) 7. the handling of particles, of motion. (PAB 1) 8. the interchange of perception through the material universe between organisms or the perception of the material universe by sense channels. (Scn 0-8, p. 83) 9. the interchange of ideas across space. (Scn 0-8, p. 36)10. the use of those sense channels with which the individual contacts the physical universe. (DAB, Vol. II, p. 218)

Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

41. Confessional Aid

CONFESSIONAL AID (E-METER), the confessional aid assists the minister in locating and relieving the spiritual travail of individual parishioners in the Scn confessional. The confessional aid does not diagnose or treat human ailments of body or mind, nor does it affect the structure or any function of the body; its use is directed as an article of faith of the Church of Scientology, and was never intended for use outside of the Scientology ministry. (HCO PL 9 Jul 69) See also E-METER. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

43. Control

CONTROL, 1 . you are stating a greater truth when you say that control is predictable change than if you say control is start, change and stop because start and stop are, of course, necessary to change.

45. Criticism

CRITICISM, 1 . most criticism is justification of having done an overt. There are rightnesses and wrongnesses in conduct and society and life at large, but random, carping 1.1 criticism when not borne out in fact is only an effort to reduce the size of the target of the overt. (HCOB 21 Jan 60, Justification) 2 . a criticism is a hope that they can damage, and that's what a criticism is, with an inability to do so. (SH Spec 119, 6202C22) -- L.

47. Dead Agent

DEAD AGENT CAPER, 1., the dead agent caper was used to disprove the lies. This consisted of of counter-documenting any area where the lies were circulated. The lie "they were . . . "is countered by document showing "they were not . . ." This causes the source of the lie and any other statements from that source to be discarded.. (HCO PL 11 May 71 III) 2. meaning getting documentary proof that what was said was lies. (OODs 22 June 70) -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined

48. Dead Thetan

DEAD THETAN, 1 . doesn't put out any current. Doesn't react on a meter. Only the body reacts so it looks like a clear read (false read). An ARC break of long duration reads the same way. (LRH Def. Notes) 2 . a false clear read. (HCOB 17 Oct 69) 3 . clear read without tone arm motion and tight needle. That's your lowest case range, save one. There is one below that.

50. Dianetics

DIANETICS, 1. DIA (Greek) through, NOUS (Greek) soul deals with a system of mental image pictures in relation to psychic (spiritual) trauma. The mental image pictures are believed on the basis of personal revelation to be comprising mental activity created and formed by the spirit, and not by the body or brain. (BPL 24 Sept 73 V) 2. Dn addresses the body. Thus Dn is used to knock out and erase illnesses, unwanted sensations, misemotion, somatics, pain, etc. Dn came before Scn. It disposed of body illness and the difficulties a thetan was having with his body. (HCOB 22 Apr 69) 3. a technology that runs and erases locks, secondarles and engrams and their chains. (HCOB 17 Apr 69) 4. Dn could be called a study of man. Dn and Scn, up to the point of stable exteriorization, operate in exactly the same field with exactly the same tools. It is only after man is sufficiently exteriorized to become a spirit that we depart from Dn; for here, considering man as a spirit, we must enter the field of religion. (PAB 42) 5. a precision science. It stems from the study and codification of survival. (COHA, p. 148) 6. a system of coordinated axioms which resolve problems concerning human behavior and psychosomatic illnesses. (5110CM08B) 7. Dn is not psychiatry. It is not psychoanalysis. It is not psychology. It is not personal relations. It is not hypnotism. It is a science of mind. (DMSMH, p. 168) 8. the route from aberrated or aberrated and ill human to capable human. (HCOB 3 Apr 66) Abbr. Dn. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

51. Dichotomy

DICHOTOMY, 1. can-can't is the plus and minus aspect of all thought and in Scn is called by a specialized word, dichotomy. (FOT, p. 100) 2. a pair of opposites, such as black-white, good-evil, love-hate. (COHA Gloss) 3. opposites; two things which when interplayed, cause action. (5209CM04B) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

52. Do a bunk

DO A BUNK, 1 . an English slang term which meant "run away or desert." (7204C07 SO III) 2 . the body goes collapse; the heart is still beating, the lungs are still breathing, because the G.E. runs those, but the thetan--he's done a bunk. (PDC 9) 3 . that's what we say colloquially, means on his way over the hills and far away and he's just now passing Galaxy 18 . (PDC 46) 4 . the person shoots out of his head and he's on his way. He hit the dispersal just adjacent to a ridge. (PDC 23) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

53. Dramatization

DRAMATIZATION, 1 . to repeat in action what has happened to one in experience. That's a basic definition of it, but much more important, it's a replay now of something that happened then. It's being replayed out of its time and period. (SH Spec 72, 6607C28) 2 . the duplication of an engramic content, entire or in part, by an aberree in his present time environment. Aberrated conduct is entirely dramatization. The degree of dramatization is in direct ratio to the degree of restimulation of the engrams causing it. (DTOT, p. 74) 3 . complete dramatization is complete identity. It is the engram in full force in present time with the aberree taking one or more parts of the dramatis personae present in the engram. (DTOT, p. 75) 4 . thinking or acting in a manner that is dictated by masses or significances contained in the reactive mind. When dramatizing, the individual is like an actor playing his dictated part and going through a whole series of irrational actions. (PXL Gloss) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

54. Dwindling Spiral

DWINDLING SPIRAL, 1 . one commits overt acts unwittingly. He seeks to justify them by finding fault or displacing blame. This leads him into further overts against the same terminals which leads to a degradation of himself and sometimes those terminals. (HCOB 21 Jan 60, Justification) 2 . as life progresses, more and more theta becomes fixed as entheta in locks and secondary engrams, and less and less theta is available to the organism for purposes of reason. This is called the dwindUng spiral. It is so called because the more entheta there is on the case, the more theta will be turned into entheta at each new restimulation. It is a three-dimensional vicious circle which carries the individual down the tone scale. (SOS, Bk. 2, p. 26) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

55. Dynamics

DYNAMICS, there could be said to be eight urges (drives, impulses) in life. These we call dynamics. These are motives or motivations. We call them the eight dynamics: 1. The first dynamic --is the urge toward existence as one's self. Here we have individuality expressed fully. This can be called the self dynamic. 2. The second dynamic--is the urge toward existence as a sexual or bisexual activity. This dynamic actually has two divisions. Second dynamic (a) is the sexual act itself and the second dynamic (b) is the family unit, including the rearing of children. This can be called the sex dynamic. 3. The third dynamic--is the urge toward existence in groups of individuals. Any group or part of an entire class could be considered to be a part of the third dynamic. The school, the society, the town, the nation are each part of the third dynamic, and each one is a third dynamic. This can be called the group dynamic. 4. The fourth dynamic--is the urge toward existence as mankind. Whereas the white race would be considered a third dynamic, all the races would be considered the fourth dynamic. This can be called the mankind dynamic. 5. The fifth dynamic--is the urge toward existence of the animal kingdom. This includes all living things whether vegetable or animal. The fish in the sea, the beasts of the field or of the forest, grass, trees, flowers, or anything directly and intimately motivated by life. This could be called the animal dynamic. 6. The sixth dynamic--is the urge toward existence as the physical universe. The physical universe is composed of matter, energy, space and time. In Scn we take the first letter of each of these words and coin a word, mest. This can be called the universe dynamic. 7. The seventh dynamic--is the urge toward existence as or of spirits. Anything spiritual, with or without identity, would come under the heading of the seventh dynamic. This can be called the spiritual dynamic. 8. The eighth dynamic--is the urge toward existence as infinity. This is also identified as the Supreme Being. It is carefully observed here that the science of Scn does not intrude into the dynamic of the Supreme Being. This is called the eighth dynamic because the symbol of infinity oo stood upright makes the numeral "8." This can be called the infinity or God dynamic. (FOT, pp. 36-38) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

56. E-Meter

E-METER: Short for electropsychometer, a specially designed instrument which helps the auditor and preclear locate areas of spiritual distress or travail. The E-Meter is a religious artifact and can only be used by Scientology ministers or ministers-in-training. It does not diagnose or cure anything. It measures the mental state or change of state of a person and thus is of benefit to the auditor in helping the preclear locate areas to be handled. -- Glossary for brochure © 2000 CSI ELECTROPSYCHOMETER, it's an electrical means of measuring the spirit. It's exactly what its name says, electropsychometer. It's called for short, E-meter. (Class VIII, No. 7) See also E-METER. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary E-METER, l. the E-meter is a religious artifact used as a spiritual guide in the church confessional. It is an aid to the auditor (minister, student, pastoral counselor) in two-way communication locating areas of spiritual travail and indicating spiritual well-being in an area. (HCO PL 24 Sept 73 VII) 2 . Hubbard Electrometer. An electronic instrument for measuring mental state and change of state in individuals, as an aid to precision and speed in auditing. The E-meter is not intended or effective for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. (Scn AD) 3 . used to verify the preclear's gain and register when each separate auditing action is ended. ( HCOB 5 Apr 69R ) 4. Electropsychometer. (HCOB 23 Aug 65) 5 . the meter tells you what the preclear's mind is doing when the preclear is made to think of something. The meter registers before the preclear becomes conscious of the datum. It is therefore a pre-conscious meter. It passes a tiny current through the preclear's body. This current is influenced by the mental masses, pictures, circuits and machinery. When the unclear pc thinks of something, these mental items shift and this registers on the meter. (EME, p. 8) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

57. Emotion

EMOTION, 1. a response by a wave-length affecting an individual or another which produces a sensation and a state of mind. (SH Spec 83, 6612C06) 2. emotion is three things--engramic response to situations, endocrine metering of the body to meet situations on an analytical level and the inhibition or the furtherance of life force. (Scn 0-8, p. 66) 3 . a manifestation, a condition of beingness which is the connector between thought and effort. The tone scale is a direct index of emotion. (5203CM05B) 4 . the intention to exert effort bridges into the body by emotion. In other words, the physical-mental bridge is emotion. Emotion is motion. (5203CM04B) 5. emotion could be called the energy manifestation of affinity. As used in Dn, emotion could be called the index of the state of being. In the English language, "emotional" is often considered synonymous with "irrational." This would seem to assume that if one is emotional one cannot be reasonable. No more unreasonable assumption could possibly be made. (SOS, p. 48) 6 . this word is redefined in Dn and is given an opposite for comparison, "misemotion." Previously the word emotion was never satisfactorily defined. Now it is defined as an organism manifestation of position on the tone scale which is rationality appropriate to the present time environment and which truly represents the present time position on the tone scale. Rational effect. (SOS Gloss) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

58. Emotional curve

EMOTIONAL CURVE, 1 . the drop from any position above 2 .01 to a position below 2 .0 on the realization of failure or inadequacy. It is easily recovered by preclears. (AP&A, p. 24) 2 . the drop or rise from one level of emotion to another. (HFP, p. 120) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary 1 2.0 on Hubbard's emotional tone scale is the designation for antagonism. Antagonism, according to Hubbard is the point on the scale that divides the positve emotions from the negative emotions. It is also the doorway to the reactive mind, in that below 2.0 the person is said to be dramatizing emotions that come from past trauma.

59. End Phenomena

END PHENOMENA, those indicators in the pc and meter which show that a chain or process is ended. It shows in Dn that basic on that chain has been erased and in Scn that the pc has been released on that process being run. Any Dn auditing below power processing has four definite reactions in the pc which show the process is ended. (1) floating needle, (2) cognition, (3) very good indicators, (pc happy), (4) erasure of the final picture audited. The 0 to IV Scn end phenomena are (1) floating needle, (2) cognition, (3) very good indicators, (4) release. (HCOB 20 Feb 70) Abbr. EP. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

60. Engram

ENGRAM, 1 . a mental image picture which is a recording of a time of physical pain and unconsciousness. It must by definition have impact or injury as part of its content. (HCOB 23 Apr 69) 2 . a specialized kind of facsimile. This differs from other mental pictures because it contains, as part of its content, unconsciousness and physical pain. (Dn 55 .1, p. 12) 3 . a complete recording, down to the last accurate detail, of every perception present in a moment of partial or full unconsciousness. (Scn 0-8, p. 11) 4 . a theta facsimile of atoms and molecules in misalignment. (Scn 0-8, p. 81) 5 . a unit of force which is held in because one has chosen force itself for his randomity. (5312CM13) 6 . the word engram is an old one borrowed from biology. It means simply, "a lasting memory trace on a cell." It may be engraved on more than the cell, but up against Dn processing, it is not very lasting. (SOS, p. 10) 7 . physical pain, enmest and entheta held at a specific point on the time track. (SOS, Bk. 2, p. 25) 8 . a severe physical pain causes considerable analytical attenuation, shutting off the analyzer thoroughly for a period of time. This, technically, is an engram, although any incident, painful or not, contained in the reactive mind, and occluded by anaten can be considered an engram. (SOS, p. 80) 9 . a recording which has the sole purpose of steering the individual through supposed but usually nonexistent dangers. (SOS, p. 10) 1 0 . a severe area of plus or minus randomity of sufficient volume to cause unconsciousness. (Scn 0-8, p. 81) 1 1 . a moment when the analytical mind is shut down by physical pain, drugs or other means, and the reactive bank is open to the receipt of a recording. (DMSMH, p. 153) 1 2 . simply moments of physical pain strong enough to throw part or all the analytical machinery out of circuit; they are antagonism to the survival of the organism or pretended sympathy to the organism's survival. That is the entire definition. Great or little unconsciousness, physical pain, perceptic content, and contra-survival or pro-survival data. (DMSMH, p. 68) 1 3 . not a sentient recording containing meanings. It is merely a series of impressions such as a needle might make on wax. These impressions are meaningless to the body until the engram keys-in, at which time aberrations and psychosomatics occur. (DMSMH, p. 131) 1 4 . a bundle of data which includes not only perceptics and speech present but also metering for emotion and state of physical being. (DMSMH, p. 245)1 5 . an apparent surcharge in the mental circuit with certain definite finite content. That charge is not reached or examined by the analytical mind but that charge is capable of acting as an independent command. (DTOT, p. 43) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

61. Engram bank

ENGRAM BANK, a colloquial name for the reactive mind. It is that portion of a person's mind which works on a stimulus response basis. (PXL Gloss) ENGRAM CHAIN, a basic engram and a series of similar incidents. (DTOT, p. 112) See CHAIN. ENGRAM COMMAND, any phrase contained in an engram. (DMSMH Gloss) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

62. Engramic Thought

ENGRAMIC THOUGHT, 1 . thought that demands immediate action without examination by the analytical mind. (Scn Jour 28-G) 2 . irrational identity thought by which the mind is made to conceive identities where only vague similarities may exist. Engramic thinking can be stated by A equals A equals A equals A equals A. (DTOT, p. 64) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

63. Entheta

ENTHETA, 1 . means enturbulated theta (thought or life); especially refers to communications, which, based on lies and confusions, are slanderous, choppy or destructive in an attempt to overwhelm or suppress a person or group. (Scn AD) 2 . theta which has been confused and chaotically mixed with the material universe and which will lie in this confusion until death or some other process disenturbulates it. Theta, below 2 .0 on the tone scale, we call entheta. (SOS, p. 41) 3 . anger, sarcasm, despair, slyly destructive suggestions. (HTLTAE, p. 88) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

64. Espionage

Espionage. Espionage, or spying, has reference to the crime of "gathering, transmitting or losing" information respecting the national defense with intent or reason to believe that the information is to be used to the injury of the United States, or to the advantage of any foreign nation. 18 U.S.C.A. § 793; Rosenberg v. United States, 346 U.S. 273, 73 S.Ct. 1152, 97 L.E.d. 1609. See Internal security acts. -- Black's Law Dictionary 5th edition © 1979 West Publishing Co.

65. Ethics

ETHICS, 1. the study of the general nature of morals. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72) 2. the study of the general nature of morals and the specific moral choices to be made by the individual in his relationship with others. It could also be called "philosophy of morals, and also called moral philosophy." Ethics is a first dynamic action. (7204C11 SO) 3. All ethics really does is hold the lines firm so that you can route and audit. All ethics is for in actual fact is simply that additional tool necessary to make it possible to get technology in. That's the whole purpose of ethics; to get technology in. When you've got technical in, that's as far as you carry an ethics action. (SH Spec 61, 6505C18) 4. the purpose of ethics is to remove counter intentions from the environment. And having accomplished that the purpose becomes to remove other intentionedness from the environment. (HCO PL 18 Jun 68) 5. what we have then, in ethics, is a system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push, and that's all an Ethics Officer is supposed to do. (6711C18 SO) 6. are basically, merely good sense (5904C15) 7. a study as much as anything else, of the equity of human intercourse. You might say it's how to keep overt-motivator sequences from forming easily. (5904C15) 8. ethics is now refined by experience to a new look. The protection of upstats must be as certain as the handling of downstats. Ethics is not the business of just assigning and enforcing conditions. The ethics we have has its own tech as contained in HCOBs on suppressives, on meters, on case types. (FO 2245) -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined

66. Ethics Presence

ETHICS PRESENCE, 1. ethics presence is an "X" quality made up partly of symbology, partly of force, some "now we're supposed to's" and endurance. Endurance asserts the truth of unkillability. We're still here, can't be unmocked. This drives the SP wild. Because of the Sea Org we appear to have unlimited reach and in some mysterious way, unlimited resources. The ability to appear and disappear mysteriously is a part of ethics presence. As an executive you get compliance because you have ethics presence and persistence and can get mad. The way you continue to have ethics presence is to be maximally right in your actions, decisions and dictates. (HCO PL 4 Oct 68) 2. is basically knowing what you are doing and making sure the junior backs you up and does it. (ED 123 USB) -- L. Ron Hubbard Modern Management Technology Defined

67. Evil

EVIL, 1 . that which inhibits or brings plus or minus randomity into the organism, which is contrary to the survival motives of the organism. (Scn 0-8, p. 92) 2 . may be classified as those things which tend to limit the dynamic thrust of the individual, his family, his group, his race, or life in general in the dynamic drive, also limited by the observation, the observer and his ability to observe. (DTOT, pp. 20-21) 3. evil is the opposite of good, and is anything which is destructive more than it is constructive along any of the various dynamics. A thing which does more destruction than construction is evil from the viewpoint of the individual, the future, group, species, life, or mest that it destroys. (SOS, Bk. 2, p. 34) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

68. Evil Purpose

EVIL PURPOSE, destructive intentions. (7203C30SO) Abbr. Ev purp. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

69. Exterior

EXTERIOR, the fellow would just move out, away from the body and be aware of himself as independent of a body but still able to control and handle the body. (Spec Lect 7006C21) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

70. Exteriorization

EXTERIORIZATION, 1 . the state of the thetan, the individual himself, being outside his body. When this is done, the person achieves a certainty that he is himself and not his body. (PXL Gloss) 2 . the phenomenon of being in a position in space dependent on only one's consideration, able to view from that space, bodies and the room, as it is. (PAB 125) 3 . the act of moving out of the body with or without full perception. (HCOB 22 Oct 71) -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

71. Exteriorization Rundown

EXTERIORIZATION RUNDOWN, a remedy designed to permit the pc to be further audited after he has gone exterior. The Ext Rundown is not meant to be sold or passed off as a method of exteriorizing a pc. (HCOB 2 Dec 70, C/S Series No. 23, Exteriorization Summary) [NOTE: the above HCOB has since been revised to HCOB 17 Dec 71R, C/S Series 23RA, Interiorization Summary. All references to Exteriorization Rundown in the former HCOB have been changed to Interiorization Rundown in the latter HCOB. This is also known as Interiorization Rundown, Int Rundown, Int-Ext Rundown, Ext-Int Rundown.] Abbr. Ext RD or Int RD. -- L. Ron Hubbard Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary

72. Extort

Extort. To compel or coerce, as a confession or information by any means serving to overcome one's power of resistance, thus making the confession or admission involuntary. To gain by wrongful methods; to obtain in an unlawful manner, as to compel payments by means of threats of injury to person, property, or reputation. To exact something wrongfully by threats or putting in fear. The natural meaning of the word "extort" is to obtain money or other valuable thing either by compulsion, by actual force, or by the force of motives applied to the will, and often more overpowering and irresistible than physical force." -- Black's Law Dictionary 5th edition © 1979 West Publishing Co.

74. Facsimile

FACSIMILE, 1. any mental picture, that is unknowingly created and part of the time track is a facsimile, whether an engram, secondary, lock or pleasure moment. (HCOB 15 May 63) 2 . a theta recording. All physical perceptions, all effort, emotion and thought which a person experiences are recorded continuously, and these recordings are called "facsimiles." They are not dependent upon an organism for their continued existence. Any facsimile which has been recorded is there to be recalled--when the individual has risen high enough on the tone scale, when he has regained enough of his self-determinism. (Abil 114A) 3 . an energy picture made by a thetan or the body's machinery of the physical universe environment. It is like a photograph. It is made of mental energy.
