DECLARATION OF STEVEN FISHMAN
I, Steven Fishamn, declare as follows:
1. I have personal knowledge of the facts stated herein,
unless stated on information and belief, and if called upon
to testify to those facts I could and would competently
do so.
2. I am a Defendant in the case of Church of Scientology
v. Steven Fishman and Uwe W. Geertz. I am currently serving a
five year sentence for mail fraud and I am under the direct
custody of the Bureau of Prisons. I am currently housed in
Dismas House, a "half-way haouse" run by the Bureau of
Prisons, and under the direct supervision of the Community
Corrections Manager of the Southern District of Florida.
My release date from incarceratyion is June 28, 1993.
3. I am prohibited from leaving the Southern District
of Florida during my incarceration. After my period of
incarceration, I will be under the supervision of the
United States Parole Commission, from June 29, 1993 until
November 28, 1993, and I am prohibited from leaving the
Southern District of Florida. After my period of Parole,
I will be under the supervision of the United
-3- (0017)
States Probation Office, from November 29, 1993 until
November 28, 1995, and I am prohibited from leaving the
Southern District of Florida, without permission of the
United States Probation Office or as ordered by the Court.
4. Due to the period of incarceration, parole and
supervised release, it is very difficult if not impossible
for me to conduct discovery and/or prepare for trial which
is tentatively scheduled to occur in the summer of 1993.
The trial is scheduled to take place in the Central
istrict of California.
5. This very Court in this very action declared
me indigent -pursuant to a Motion to Proceed in Forma
Pauperis signed by the honorable Judge Harry L. Hupp on May
28, 1992.
6. My financial condition is still indigent. I
am employed as a receptionist and data entry clerk at the
wage of $ 5.00 per hour. My gross pay is $ 200.00 per
week, as I work a forty hour week. My net pay after
deductions is $ 164.00 per week. Out of that check I
pay $ 50.00 In subsistence payments to the Dismas House,
and I make child support payments of $ 41.00 per week to my
ex-wife, Jaime Lee Nureyev, in order to help support my two
minor children. I further make a monthly non-committed
fine payment of $ 25.00 to the Debt Collection Unit of the
4 (0018)
Northern District of California and I contribute $ 20.00
per week to the support of My father, Jack Fishman, who is
also destitute and has been adjudicated bankrupt by
the
Southern District of Florida, and is living only on his
social security chock. I wish the Court to know that I
am
indigent and destitute and besides not being able to afford
the cost of bringing witnesses to testify at trial in the
Central District of Cdlifornia I cannot afford even a
plane ticket or money for a hotel room to come out there
for the trial myself.
7. I cannot afford nor have I been able to afford to
conduct discovery in this case, nor to issue subpoenas,
hire court reporters etc., in the Central District of
California, a jurisdiction which is convenient for the
Plaintiff but not for myself as a Defendant in this case.
8. Although my ability to conduct discovery in
either jurisdiction is impossible due to my financial
circumstances I ask the Court to recognize my right to
attend My own trial as the Defendant, which would be
impossible in California unless my traveling and hotel
expenses were paid for by the Plaintiff or my co-Defendant,
and I do not wish to be a burden upon either of them. If
the case were transferred to the Southern District of
Florida under 28 U.S.C. 1404(m), I would be able to attend
my trial as the Defendant in this case since no travel or
5 (0019)
hotel expenses are involved.
90 1 do not expect my financial situation to change
in the foreseeable future. I also still personally owe
in
excess of $ 10,000 in credit card debt, some of which
I
used to purchase books and tapes from bridge Publications
Inc., the publishing house of the Church of Scientology,
while I was still brainwashed and under the mind control
of
the Scientology cult.
10. I have been ordered by Counselor Roxana Boyco and
Director Tammy Jodway of Dismas House, as well as
Mr.
Conrad Lopez of the Bureau of Prisons to begin My
required
Mental Health Aftercare at the Henderson Clinic South,
a
psychiatric out-patient treatment center in
Hollywood,
Florida. My treatment begins on March 9, 1993, and
may
require psychotropic medication, according to Ruth Watkins
at the clinic. I may not be reemitted by my
treating
psychiatrist to discontinue treatment during the period
of
time required for my trial appearance in California,
even
if the Court were to order the Bureau of Prisons to
allow
me to appear in California, and even if any expenses were
to
be Paid for by either the Plaintiff or Defendant
Geertz,
which is not likely-or customary.
I will need to call Margery Wakefield as a
witness. Margery Wakefield is a Florida resident. As an
6 (0020)
ex-member of Scientology, and As a victim of abuse while a
member of the cult, she will be called upon to testify as
-to the illegal and criminal practices Of the Church of
scientology, as well as information regarding the church's
-policies on suicides, murder and the Church policy known
as "changing history". I cannot afford to bring Margery
Wakefield as a witness to California. Margery wakefield
told me that she is also indigent and destitute but has
Indicated that she would appear as a witness if the case
,were brought to trial in the Southern District of Florida.
She is a key witness in my defense.
12. Dr. Ron Johnson is a doctor of veterinary
medicine and a resident of Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
I wish to be able to call him to trial in order to testify
regarding my membership in the Church of Scientology in the
year 1981, a fact strongly disputed by the Church in their
attempt to cover up their involvement in the crimes for
which I am charged in the criminal case. I cannot afford
to bring this witness to California in order to testify.
13. Dr. Ron Neuhring is a psychologist from Miami,
Florida. He was my Fishman's treating psychologist when I
was first arrested at the Metropolitan Correctional Center,
a Federal prison facility. Dr. Neuhring will be called to
testify regarding my mental state at the time of my arrest,
as well as statements which I made to him regarding my
7 (0021)
involvement with the Church of Scientology. I cannot
afford to bring this witness to California in order to
testify.
14. Special Agent Angelo Troncoso of the Internal
Revenue Service 'is a resident of the Tampa, Florida area.
I will call him to testify to his knowledge of the criminal
investigation being conducted by the internal Revenue
Service into the Church of Scientology, and to the extent
of knowledge and details supplied to him by myself,
establishing to the Court his understanding of my
familiarity with upper-level Church management decisions
and business. I cannot afford to bring this witness to
California in order to testify.
15. Special Agent Terry R. Kroggel is a Certified
public Accountant with the Internal Revenue Service and a
resident of the St. Petersburg, Florida area. I will call
him to testify to my knowledge of the civil investigation
being conducted by the Internal Revenue Service into the
Church of Scientology, and to the extent of familiarity
with details supplied to him by myself, establishing my the
his understanding of my knowledge of upper-level Church
management decisions and business. I cannot afford to
bring this witness to California in order to testify.
16. Detective Dennis Angelo is an investigator with
8 (0022)
the Clearwater Police Department, and is a resident of the
Clearwater, Florida area. I will call him to testify to
his Knowledge of the civil investigation being conducted by
the Clearwater Police Department into the Church of
Scientology, and to the extent of familiarity with details
supplied to him by myself, establishing my knowledge of
upper-level Church management decisions and business.
I cannot afford to bring this witness to California in
order to testify.
17. Dr. Enyin Aksu is a psychiatrist who is a
resident of Broward County Florida. Dr. Aksu was
my treating physician at the time when I was, an in-patient
at the Hollywood pavilion psychiatric facility in
Hollywood, Florida, from February 13, 1989 until march 20,
1989. Dr. Aksu will be called to testify regarding my
mental state at the time of my involuntary commitment in
the mental hospital, as well as statements made to him by
myself Fishman regarding my involvement with this Church of
Scientology. I cannot afford to bring this witness to
California in order to testify.
18. I will also need to call certain hostile
witnesses who are staff members of the Church of
Scientology, including but not limited to Mr. Frank
Thompson, Mr. Ray Jourdain, Mr. Humberto Fontana, Ms.
Beverly Flahan, Mr. Luis Gonzales, Mr. Charles Fox, Mr.
9 (0023)
Mark Witt, Mr. Michael Hambrick, Mr. Peter Letterese, Mrs.
Barbara Fawcett Letterese, Ms. Denise Franklin Monco Mancha
Ms. Fran Hardy Andrews, Ms. Barbara Koster, Ms,. Leona
Littler Grimm, Ms. Celia Alvarez, Mr. Tom Staley, Ma. Karen
Staley, Ms, Shirley Hambrick, Ms. Leah Abady, Ms. Colette
Atzel, Mr. Jamie Gurlaccio, Mr. Bob Levy, Mr. Doug Carr,
Mr. Roberto Naya, Ms. Nancy Witkowski, Mr. Paul Dibble, Ms.
Linda Miller, Ms. Vicki Kirkland, Mr. Roggie Monce, and
others who are residents of either Dade or Broward County,
Florida. These witnesses will be called upon to testify
regarding the physical abuse and hypnosis performed upon
myself, AS well as Church policies regarding these
practices. Some will be asked to testify regarding the
Church policy regarding suicide and murder, as well as
specific orders directing me to assassinate Dr. Geertz and
to have me Defendant commit suicide under the auspices of
an "End of Cycle" order. others will be asked to testify
regarding the Church's involvement and direction in
ordering me to commit securities class action fraud in a
Church operation known an Operation Acting Classes, for
which I was arrested and plead guilty in an Alford Plea (of
Innocent but responsible for the acts alleged), and other
criminal acts which I was directed to commit on behalf of
the cult, including the Ethics Bait Project and Bingoing.
I cannot afford to bring any of these or other similarly
situated witnesses to California for the trial, as they are
nearly all residents of the Southern District of Florida,
10 (0024)
with the exception of Denise Franklin Monce Macha, who may
be residing in Clearwater, Florida to the best of my
recollection.
19. I will also need to call Mrs. Dorli Geertz to
testify Regarding psychological tests which she
administered on me over the Years between 1979-1990 which
will establish my deteriorating state of mind during the
time I was a devotee to and member of the Scientology cult.
I cannot afford to bring this witness to California in
order to testify.
20. Dr. Daniel M. Lipshutz. M.D. is a resident of
Singer Island, Florida, and is my uncle. He is a retired
psychiatrist formerly licensed to practice psychiatry in
New York. He has been familiar with my psychiatric history
during my entire lifetime arid will be called to testify
about how the Scientology cult had adversely affected my
thinking, belief system and my mental condition. I cannot
afford to bring this witness to California in order to
testify.
21. Mr. Samuel J. Kern, is a resident of Plantation,
Florida, and is also my uncle. He is a retired trial
attorney from Brooklyn New York, and although cannot
represent me an counsel in this case because he is not
admitted to the bar in Florida, he will assist me and act
11 (0025)
as my personal representative if the trial were conducted
in Florida. I cannot afford to bring my uncle to
California in order for him to assist me in the preparation
of my defense as my personal representative.
22. Consequently, and in the interest of justice,
I plead with the Court to transfer the venue to the
Southern District of Florida pursuant to 29 U.S.C. 1404(a).
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of
the State of Florida that the above is true and correct to
the best of my recollection and understanding.

ON CONTROL AND LYING
____________________
THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN CONTROL PEOPLE IS TO LIE TO THEM. You
can
write that down in your book in great big letters. The only
way you
can control anybody is to lie to them. When you find an
individual
is lying to you, you know that the individual is trying to
control
you. One way or another this individual is trying to control
you. That is the mechanism of control. This individual is
lying to
you because he is trying to control you - because if they give
you
enough misinformation they will pull you down the tone scale
so that
they can control you. Conversely, if you see an impulse on
the part
of a human being to control you, you know very well that that
human
being is lying to you. Not "is going to", but "is" lying to
you.
[last sentence is underlined in original]
Check these facts, you will find they are always true. That
person
who is trying to control you is lying to you. He's got to tell
you
lies in order to continue control, because the second you
start
telling anybody close to the truth, you start releasing him
and
he gets tougher and tougher to control. So, you cant control
somebody without telling them a bunch of lies. You will find
that
very often Command has this as its greatest weakness. It will
try to
control instead of leading. The next thing you know, it is
lying to
the [illegible]. Lie, lie, lie, and it gets worse and worse,
and all
of a sudden the thing blows up. Well, religion has done this.
[Following sentence is underlined] Organised religion
tries to control, so therefore must be lying. [end underline]
After a while it figures out (even itself) that it is lying,
and then
it starts down tone scale further and further, and all of a
sudden
people get down along this spring-like bottom (heresy) and
say,
"Are we going into apathy and die, or are we going to revolt?"
and they revolt, because you can only lie to people so long.
Unfortunately there is always a new cycle of lying.

WITNESS PREPARATION:HATTING THE WITNESS
Preparation of an individual witness to give evidence for us
at trial
can be broken into three steps:
1. The basic witness hat, which is unvarying from one witness
to the
next;
2. Full debriefing and resulting understanding of prospective
testimony;,
and
3. Finalization of the testimony with the lawyer.
Steps 1 and 2 would be handled by the GO terminal assisting
the
lawyer for that portion of the case, and step 3 would be done
by the GO
terminal and the lawyer.
There is basic data about being a witness which should be
given to
every witness, to give them reality on what It will be like,
answer their
questions. etc. Following are the areas which we would cover
(for the
IRS case) as basic witness hatting.
1. It is helpful to describe to the person the physical space
'of the
courtroom (and, If possible, to have the person visit the
actual
courtroom where he will be giving his evidence). Tell (or
show) the
witness where he will sit; where the judge, the clerk, and the
reporter
each sit; and what roles they play. , Tell (or show) him where
counsel and
where the audience will be seated. The witness may want to do
a little
reach and withdraw on the space of the courtroom, and this can
usually be
accomplished during a recess. The witness should be encouraged
to 'take
control of the courtroom.
-1- (0031)
2. The statistic for a witness Is something like 'length of
time on the
Stand' (keeping In mind the purpose of each witness to deliver
certain
evidence comfortably, persuasively and honestly so the judge
can
duplicate and agree with it). A witness will always
experience
discomfort. anxiety, etc., and will have (at first) a strong
desire to
get It over with." The danger here Is that his/her testimony
will
become condensed or abbreviated to as to get off the stand as
quickly as
possible. The witness should be warned against this
phenomenon. We want
a witness to understand that (under ordinary circumstances)
they will
have done better to stay on a long time, and they should get
their TRO In
and be there comfortably for as long as It takes. After a
time, they
Invariably loosen up and actually begin to enjoy the
experience such that
they become willing to stay on and on.
A witness who makes only a brief appearance leaves little or
no
Impression on the judge. A trial judge or a juror must, as
part of his
hat, determine what degree of credibility each witness
possesses, and
accordingly what relative weight to give to that witness'
evidence. A
judge or juror does this by observation of the witness'
demeanor as much
as by the testimony given. A witness who is willing to be
there, and
answer in as much detail as necessary (not chopping his
evidence short
out of desire to "blow" from the stand), gives the judge or
juror more
time to observe, and get to know that witness;. it is a matter
of
increasing ARC between witness and Judqe or juror which
results In the
judge retaining the data better and also according It more
weight as he
will have sussed out that witness for believability.
3. The witness should know that he may be questioned by the
judge
directly on some point of Interest or at a lull In the
examination being
done by counsel. If that occurs, the witness should give his
answer
directly to the judge, respectfully and with high ARC and
attention to
fully and actually answering the question asked.
-2- (0032)
Also there are times, though they Should be rare and sparsely
used,
When the Witness may want to address himself to the judge,
seeking his
advice or aid. For example, If witness feels he simply cannot
answer a
Cross-exam question both a yes or no, but must make an
accompanying
explanation, he may ask the judge for leave to explain or
qualify his
answer. 'This comm line can be used to good advantage In a
situation
where the line of questioning Is probing an area of the
witness'
religious belief (or where, perhaps, the questions are
designed to
address or elicit upper level material): The witness can
originate that
this question is improper as it seeks Information about his
personal
religious belief Or data that he considers confidential as
part of his
beliefs, and that he has taken a perpetual vow never to
disclose.
Address to the judge Is not to be over-used or relied on by
the
witness to any advantage, but the witness should know that he
can have a
comm line to the judge, to appeal for protection.
4. Related to point 2 above, a witness should also be told
that his
testimony should be calm and reasonable. Although it Is part
of his
purpose to persuade the judge, this is done by creating
credibility, not
by acting as an advocate. Advocacy is the lawyers job, and the
representations of a lawyer are not evidence; the statements
of a witness
under oath are. Emotional reactions by the witness, argument
with a
cross-examining attorney, or attempts to "handle" an
antagonistic
cross-exam by tone scale handling are not OK. A PR-trained
witness may
get Into handing his Interrogator, Instinctively, and this is
to be
warned against. One of the judge's chief tools for according
weight or
credibility to a witness and his testimony is the presence or
absence of
bias: an argumentative witness, or one-who tries to persuade,
is seen as
biased, and his testimony is given less weight. . The judge's
thinking Is
along the line that this witness has something at stake
(money, status,
his job, having to be right, etc.), and would thus be willing
to say
almost anything in defense of his position. Credibility comes
about by
being honest, willing to answer/explain, and natural. (The
useful
-3- (0033)
exception to this is "righteous Indignation' of a witness
questioned
about his personal beliefs, as discussed above).
5. The prospective witness rust be instructed on the actual
comm cycle
of giving testimony. If the person is our witness, then direct
exam will
be conducted by our lawyer, followed by cross-exam done by the
opposition
lawyer. Then comes a redirect exam, done again by our lawyer
(followed
possibly by a short recross-exam).
During direct exam our witness will be asked the questions
which have
more or less been prepared In advance by ourselves (the
witness, the GO
terminal responsible, and the lawyer). None of these
questions should
come as a surprise, though they may be taken up in relatively
random
order. In response to these questions, we are usually looking
for
relatively detailed answers, with specific points to be made.
These
answers may be fairly lengthy, depending on what the court
will allow.
Some judges may allow 'narrative' type answers, where others
may demand
that the questioning attorney stick to a strict
question-and-answer
format.
6.. During cross-examination (conducted by the opposition
lawyer, for the
purpose of unmocking the credibility and consistency of the
witness), the
witness should NEVER VOLUNTEER ANTHING. The exact question
asked should
be answered, no more, no less. Q: "When did you read that
policy
letter? A: "On the 16th May as best I can recall." NOT A: "I
recall
It was the 16th May as I had just returned that morning from a
mission."
(The latter would give the lawyer a string to pull--what
mission?
Where? Why? Etc.)
Part of answering only the exact question asked Is bearing and
responding to only the words used; the tone level of the
question is to
be Ignored. Most cross-exam Is conducted at the tone of covert
hostility, and this Is to be taken into consideration. A
clever
cross-examiner can make any statement sound suspicious and any
question
-4- (0034)
sound accusatory; but our witness, expecting this and
listening only to
the words and not the tone, will not take the bait.
A cross-examination proceeds by the opposing attorney asking
questions designed to (1) expose known or recognized
out-points In the
direct testimony of our witness, and (2) lead our witness to
volunteer
other data which will become a 'string' to be pulled. A
good
cross-examiner will pull each and every string In the hope
that he will
find the Sherman tank which destroys that witness'
credibility. A good
witness who can answer the questions exactly without
volunteering data
or being drawn into argument or acting evasive, will emerge
unscathed.
The cross-examining attorney may simply give up after a few
failed lines
of questioning. But the witness must be willing to sit it out
comfortably: we have seen witnesses who gave one day of direct
testimony
and then had to sit through four or five days of cross-exam
(and they
came out of it quite keyed out and ready to go on for as long
as it
took:) but this is the exception and not the rule.
7. By sticking to short, directly responsive answers
(basically: yes,
no, I don't know, I don't remember), the witness will
Invariably find
that some of these answers felt incomplete, or sounded
unfavorable: they
would like to have explained the answer a bit,, remedying the
sense of
" omitted" data with "all related facts known." But cross-exam
is not the
time to correct our own outpoints: this is handled on redirect
exam. Our
lawyer will have listened carefully to all the cross-exam
testimony, and
noted down the points which sounded Incomplete or unfavorable.
These
will each be cleaned up or rehabbed on redirect, so that any
negative
effect Is minimized. Also there Is often a short recess
between
cross-exam and redirect exam, so the witness can tell the
lawyer any
points which he feels should be cleaned up. Knowing this in
advance, the
witness can be willing to have his needle "dirtied" on
cross-exam and
"cleaned" on re-direct.
-5- (0035)
8. When a question is asked of the witness, he should see if
there is an
objection forthcoming from the opposite attorney. This Is
especially
true during cross-examination where our attorney will be
trying to
protect our witness from Improper lines of questioning. This
does not
mean that the witness pauses and looks at our attorney.. An
obvious comm
lag can look like the witness has to "think up an answer" and
this hurts
his credibility.
If there Is an objection made, It occurs by the attorney
standing up
and stating: "Objection--that question Is Improper because of
blah blah
blah." There may be argument back and forth on this by the
attorneys for
both sides, then the judge will rule. The objection will
either be
sustained by the court (i.e., the judge agrees that the
question is
improper, and the witness Is to ignore the question) or
overruled (i.e.,
the objection does not stand, and the witness must now
answer.)
If the witness is not paying attention, and simply hurriedly
answers
the question, he has cut off our lawyer from making any
meaningful
objection. If the witness answers the question while an
objection is
being interposed, the court reporter may ignore the objection
and record
the answer given by the witness or the judge may say, "Well,
the answer's
in. Neither of these situations is optimum, so the witness
should see
If there are objections. If the witness sees the attorney
start to rise,
he should shut up; otherwise, he should continue measured
comm.
9. A small point, perhaps, but the witness should be told that
he cannot
expect to be acknowledged while giving testimony. The comm
cycle is
question-answer, next question-next answer, etc. There Is no
ack in this
comm cycle, and in fact this is sometimes used as a tool by
the
cross-examiner. He may ask a question, then turn and walk away
from the
witness, seemingly ignoring him even after completion of his
answer. An
uninformed witness might feel uncomfortable, unacknowledged,
and feel
compelled to answer further, to fill the silence, to ltsa.
That Is what
the cross-examiner wants. for the witness to run on and on,
volunteering
-6- (0036)
data, giving up strings to pull, and. looking uneasy to the
judge. So
watch out for this phenomenon too.
20. The witness is sworn to tell the truth, And he must, of
course, do
no. The scope of his testimony and the patter for certain
areas will be
worked out with counsel, so that there can be minimum risk to
our case
and to the witness In sensitive areas. If a witness Is privy
to "too
much" sensitive or possibly unfavorable data, he may well have
been
eliminated from our witness list early on.
Perjury, i.e., lying under oath, is a crime (and, as we know,
Is usually
self destructive for the individual); we want our witnesses to
tell the
truth.
Impeachment is a term which just means that this witness is,
in the
judge's eyes, unworthy of belief (due to his demeanor,
numerous or major
Inconsistencies in the testimony, or bias). Both these terms
(perjury
and impeachment) should be gone over with our witnesses so it
is no
mystery or MU if they come up in court. We had one witness
who, hearing
the opposition announce that they would try to impeach her,
clammed up on
the stand, thinking she would be taken off to jail. (During a
recess we
cleaned up the MU and she then did fine.)
11. Our witness should be Informed that it Is OK that they
have talked
with the lawyer (and hit assistants--the GO staff) prior to
testifyi ng.
No lawyer would ever put on a witness he had not worked with,
and for a
witness to deny this destroys his credibility immediately.
It Is a
Common tactic for the cross-examining lawyer to ask the
witness if he had
discussed his testimony with the Church's lawyer; If our
witness doesn't
know about this, he will either manifest a "missed withhold of
nothing"
(and be enturbulated in his testimony), or worse yet, lie
about it (thus
losing all credibility before the judge).
-7- (0037)
12. The witness should not look at the lawyer for our side or
the GO
terminal or the audience when being cross-examined. He should
look at
the cross-examiner, unless our attorney takes an objection.
If the
witness looks continuously at our lawyer, the judge or juror
will think
that the witness is seeking guidance from the lawyer and this
affects
credibility. This Is not OK. Rather, the witness should be
natural,
looking at the person originating the comm.
If the above points 1-12 are gone over with each of your
witnesses at
the outset, they will be much more comfortable, cooperative
and
successful. They need to know what to expect if they are to
help.
Answer all their questions, as best you can; some questions
the lawyer
may have to answer (e.g., If the particular witness needs
independent
advice about claiming a 5th Amendment,, attorney/client,
priest/penitent
or other privilege). These points have been taken from notes
of witness
hatting sessions done with the trial lawyers for the IRS case;
they
should be useful In the circumstances of most US trial work.
That's it.

CONFIDENTIAL ATTORNEY CLIENT

Addendum to Hat Writeups re (1) Hatting the Witness and (2)
Preparing the
Witness
HATTING
A few additional points should be included in the description
of how to
hat a person on what it is to be a witness in a Scientology
case. These
are:
1. The witness must have a good feel for what particles, comm
lines,
command lines, writings, activities etc., in a Scientology org
are
"ecclesiastical" and those that are "secular/corporate/legal."
In this
regard, the potential witness should definitely read Bob
Harris' short
exposition on the area called "Understanding Corporate
Integrity II" and
any disagreements or questions should be handled right away.
He must
have a flexible understanding of what things are
corporate/legal matters
and what are not. This is an area that will have to be gone
over very
carefully in preparing any witness for cross-exam, for it is a
very
fertile area for such. The witness must understand the
hierarchical
nature of the Church of Scientology and the nature of the
relationships
among Scientology terminals and organizations. You might want
to show
him a chart to help tin understand the area. Such a chart was
put into
evidence in the 70-72 case (but may not be of use to everyone
as It
.depicts relationships only during that period. Watch out,
however, as
-the witness' understanding and ability to answer questions
about this
Area must still and always be realistic, practical, and from
the reality
and point of view of that individual: In other words, a person
who was
the Mimeo operator at the Hawaii org for six year s will have
a general
understanding that comes from being a staff member and a
Scientologist,
but his 'personal knowledge' and experience will be vastly
different from
that of a person who held high exec positions (e.g.,
Commodore's Staff
-Aides or WW terminals) . You don't want your witness to
appear to have
(0040)
been "briefed," you want him to have his own understanding and
personal
knowledge--OR LACK OF IT. You Just want to be sure that he
either is
Perfectly equipped to handle this area, by virtue of
intelligence,
training, nature of posts and experience and duplication of
the concepts
Involved. or you want him to really recognize his limitations
In the area
so he cannot be led Into testifying about It. (This approach
Is really a
general rule for all witnesses--It Is patently incredible for
a comm
runner to tell the court about management activities at Flag,
or the
compensation of the Founder, e.g.)
2. The witness, while testifying, should always refer to any
particle by
Its exhibit number: whenever he talks about a tangible
particle In front
of him, it's not "this" or 'that,' It's always "Exhibit AB,"
or "the
document marked Exhibit 236," etc. Otherwise the transcript of
the
testimony cannot be understood when read. The transcript,
together with
the exhibits themselves, are the complete RECORD of the case.
It Is what
we will have to refer to in part If we are to appeal any case.
Without
an intelligible record, we cannot prove our case. So this
particular bit
of admin (marking documents as exhibits by letter or number)
was
developed to ensure a readable record. The witness should know
this so
that he can be careful to refer to everything by name or
number.
3. Another aspect of understanding the comm cycle of the
courtroom and
particularly the comm cycle of cross-exam is something I call
the
"alter-ack." I have seen the cross-examining IRS attorney use
this
technique continually. He will ask the witness a question, and
then
appear to not understand the answer given; he will ask further
clarifying
questions. still seeming to get It all wrong (when he probably
understands full well what he Is shooting for with that
particular
witness). This is of course, very frustrating to the witness:
he is
not only not receiving any verbal ack from the lawyer, he is
also not
being duplicated at all. There is an eagerness on the part of
anyone in
a comm cycle to achieve duplication, and the witness may want
to clarify
,the matter. But watch out. The lawyer, after a series of
questions that
(0041)
make it seem he simply didn't get it, he will say something
Iike, "OK,
let me understand this--you said Blah Blah Blah"; he will
almost restate
the witness' words back to him. The witness will then leap to
say "Yes!"
and get the relief of having been duplicated. Usually, though,
the
lawyer will have restated the testimony with some sort of
cunning
alteration in It, some hook in it that is not what the witness
would have
said had he really thought about It. but if the witness has
agreed, then
there it is on the record. There was an example of this In the
IRS 70-72
case where a witness was being asked a series of dumb
questions off of an
ASHO ethics order, and the cross-examining attorney was
getting it all
mixed up, finally restating part of the witness' words and
stretching It
to the conclusion that "ASHO Is a subsidiary of the Sea
Org"--to which
our witness said "yes!" Well that is simply untrue, and is
even
preposterous to anyone who knows the facts (that ASHO was part
of the
corporation CSC, that the SO has never been a corporate
entity, and that
there is NO legal relationship between the two--and the term
"subsidiary"
is wholly a legal term). The witness was dying for an ack and
some
duplication from the lawyer; what he got was a false
duplication ("Oh, I
see: ASHO is a subsidiary of the SO") and what we got was a
false and/or
damaging statement on the record by someone who had no real
knowledge of
the facts of that area.
4. Generalities vs. specifics. 'Scientologists usually try to
avoid
dealing in generalities, but there are such things as good
generalities.
Entheta and suppressive statements from the cross-examining
attorney will
often take the form of generalities.
When confronted by the opposition lawyer by generalities, our
witness
should ask for specifics. That will often totally cut the
lawyer's line
of cross-exam (as he Is proceeding by generalities and cannot
have or use
the specifics). On the other hand, our witness should look for
opportunities to use theta generalities; since It's theta, the
cross-examiner will not ask for specifics--he's stung and
he'll want to
Set away from that area. If he does ask for specifics, the
witness
should supply them, and chances are It will end up hurting the
(0042)
opposition. Examples: "Every Scientologist knows it would be
violative
of the creeds and codes to lie about or falsify recorfd," or
"Scientology
has helped thousands of people to better lives," or "We all
know, or any
Scientologist who has read and understood the writings of our
religion
would surely know, that it is a religion and it deals with the
Spirit of
Man," or "We all know that the aim of Scientology is a
civilization
without war, crime, Insanity . . . . " An entheta
cross-examiner will
steer away from that stuff like a vampire from a cross. Just
let him
have it--with theta!!
5. A witness is to testify to things he knows of his personal
knowledge
only (except when he's launching a theta generality). He can
only
testify to what he did or saw; he cannot say what another told
him he saw
or did. This aspect is very useful to our witnesses on
cross-exam: when
being questioned about a difficult area, the witness should
ask himself,
-How do I know that? Did I see It or do It?" and he won't let
himself be
led into an area where he Is not prepared, or isn't competent
to testify
or is speculating or making conclusions. Speculation and
conclusion are
not usually admissible testimony, but a clever cross-examiner
can lead
the witness off into an area where he assumes what the "right"
answer is,
but doesn't really have personal knowledge. Example: Q--"What
would you
do If LRH ordered you to sell the ship?" The correct answer
(if your
-witness never received such an order)-would NOT be: A-'Well,,
gosh. I
guess I'd sell the ship..."; the proper answer would be:
A--"That never
happened." Period. That answer will alert the judge that the
question was
improper, a request for speculation on the part of the
witness..
6. Along the line of answering the exact question asked, and
not
getting outside of personal knowledge, the witness should keep
in mind on
cross-exam this tip: BE LITERAL. If the attorney doesn't know
enough to
ask the right question, he won't get the answer he's after.
Don't help
the poor, blundering soul. Sit back and answer the questions
literally.
7. It Is favorite trick of government lawyers (at least It
sure was
In the IRS 70-72 case) to try and Impeach a Scientology
witness on the
text of PLs. One can only be Impeached by being led to testify
contrary
to what one has previously written or said. One cannot be
Impeached (or
shown to be Inconsistent and therefore not cre dible) by being
shown a PL
(0043)
which says something different from what one has testified to
(unless, of
course, the witness Is the author of the PL and cannot explain
satisfactorily the circumstances and Intent of the Issue). The
natural
reaction of most staff members Is to adjust or modify what he
has said so
that It does conform to policy letters; as a good
Scientologist or staff
member he doesn't want to be accused of disagreement with or
noncompliance to PLs. But the courtroom Is different; no one
Is going to
get into trouble for saying they didn't follow a particular
PL. The
,witness Is better off sticking to his own reality and
previous statement
than by back-pedalling and modifying his testimony to make it
"agree"
with a PL he Is confronted with. Don't be intimidated by this
tactic! A
PL says what it says, and the witness In not responsible for
those words,
nor for whether or not he applied that particular PL. That may
sound
heretical at first, but unless the witness understands it and
is flexible
enough to be "in court" and not "on post" or before an ethics
Investigation, he can be led Into very uncomfortable
situations (and into
making statements that could hurt the Church's case).
B. In summary, the above points to teach a witness regarding
cross-exam are these:
Specifics vs. Generalities
Personal Knowledge
Be Literal
Ecclesiastical vs. Corporate/Legal
Don't Fear "lmpeachment" From PLs
9. The witness will also need to have a thorough understanding
(once again, commensurate with his post, training and
experience, and
Intelligence) of the religious nature of Scientology and how
this is
evident in many interrelated things.
For example, we all know that the Tech Volumes are clearly
religious
In content; but what about the OEC? It contains Issues on how
to run an
organization, how to get orders Issued and complied with how
to write an
(0044)
Invoice and keep financial records. What's religious about
that? well,
take a look at It. We have a 1st dynamic tech In auditing; we
also have
a 3rd dynamic tech of dealing with groups/organizations. On
the grade
chart there Is also (up the center) an Awareness Scale with
awareness
characteristics In an ascending gradient. Those same awareness
characteristics appear on the org board, assigned to each of
the 21
departments. Those 7 divisions of the org board are the 7
volumes of the
OEC. What is the org board? It's not a chart of any specific
org; it's
a description of relationships and a way of handling life. An
org may
operate off an org board, but it's equally applicable to any
size group,
ox even to any individual. It's a philosophic machine, not a
chart of
some commercial company. It Is based quite exactly on
Scientology
doctrinal concepts. The OEC contains ethics PLs. Are they
religious?
Certainly. They deal with doctrinal concepts about the being
and how to
handle him. Even something as mundane and "secular" as writing
an
invoice can be traced to a basic Scientology concept that
"Truth Is the
exact time, place, form and event." If one cared to undertake
the
project, the entirety of LRH policy could be traced to basic
concepts of
communication, ethics, etc., and into the Axioms and Factors.
The key
here is that to almost any Scientologist who stops to think
about It, the
concepts underlying the org board and the OEC are part of our
religion.
to an outsider they may seem "secular," but they carry a
different and
deeper meaning for the Scientologist if for no other reason
than they are
written by LRH, the Founder.
Understanding this, the witness cannot be caught off guard or
put in
an uncomfortable position regarding PLs, org boards, etc. Be
can know
they are religious in nature and can believe that to be true.
It's
really part of his belief, it can't be questioned beyond that
by a civil
court.
10. You will have seen from the points listed in this writeup
and
the others about hatting and preparing witnesses that what it
comes down
to Is that EVERY SCIENTOLOGY WITNESS CAN AND WILL BE ASKED ANY
AND ALL
(0045)
KINDS OF QUESTIONS ON CROSS-EXAM. Don't think that a witness
who was
only called to Identify a piece of paper from a file can't and
won't (if
the judge is blind enough to allow this) be cross-examined on
org boards,
ethics. nature of policy, hierarchical and corporate
relationships, etc.
To the opposing attorney, all Scientology witnesses are "Fair
Game" for
all entheta cross-exam. So ALL SCIENTOLOGY WITNESSES HAVE TO
BE READY TO
HANDLE VIRTUALLY EVERYTHING, regardless of the scope of direct
exam.
Prepare them accordingly and they will do well and we will
win; leave
them unprepared in any of these areas an they will get caught
in
something they can't control. Few Scientology witnesses are
naturals at
this; some only take a little work, some take days and days.
There is no
substitute for going over direct and expected or-even
unexpected
cross-exam with the witness and the lawyer until it Is
perfect.
The way we handled witness prep was to work up an outline of
the
points to be covered in direct exam (as described In another
hat
writeup). We would use this in prepping the witness, and the
lawyer
would use it in court (the lawyer cannot work from a script,
but he needs
the BC of an outline or list of areas to cover); the staff
person working
with the lawyer will then also rely on this outline to ensure
the direct
exam Is complete.
Since every Scientology witness must be prepared for cross on
a
multitude of areas, we used a checklist as a tool for this. It
was
rather like assessing a list with a PC. We had an overall list
of areas
To cover. These are some examples:
Corporate vs ecclesiastical
Nature of Policy
Is DEC Religious?
Relationship of Flag to S0
What was 0TC?
Ever asked to backdate a document?
Flag's relationship to CSC
Fair Game
(0046)
We would run down that list with each witness asking a
question or
two about the item to see how the witness would handle;
perhaps he knew
nothing about corporations or OTC or Flag. When we would hit a
"hot"
area (where the witness appeared to have knowledge and could
be
questioned but gave an unfavorable answer or otherwise showed
he didn't
duplicate the implications of cross-exam In that area), we
would take it
up at length, Practicing cross and hatting the witness on the
concepts
(e.g. OEC as religious) until he was stable and confident.
Once through
the entire list (this might take days), that witness was ready
to testify
and only needed brushup on direct and cross on the day before
going on
the stand.
The purpose Of going over direct and anticipated cross is not
to
inculcate "Pat" answers or robotism, but to nurture
understanding and the
ability to handle the cross-exam questions. It goes without
saying that
you also have to have a lawyer who (1) Is very experienced at
trial work,
And 2) has a very thorough working knowledge of Scientology.
For an
experienced lawyer who doesn't really understand Scientology,
It will be
unreal to him that every witness has to be able to defend
himself in
every area. He will think that he can effectively use the
"Rules" (of
Evidence) to prevent improper cross-exam. He could be in for a
very
unpleasant surprise about that at trial. There is no other
animal on the
face of the Earth like a Scientology trial and he'll have to
know
It--or we get another Christo case.
That's It.

plan discussed, love
Bryce
PROJECT QUAKER
(Refer to the persons concerned
as "the friends")
INFORMATION:
It may be deemed necessary for all the DC Staff who
could be pulled in for questioning 'to suddenly leave.
This must be done in such a way So that they never
can be accused of "fleeing prosecution".
MAJOR TARGET
To ensure that all those DC staff concerned are not
available for questioning by Scales yet cannot be
prosecuted for fleeing.
PRIMARY TARGETS
1. US B1 SEUS SEC is responsible for seeing that
this project gets speedily done. He is to work
closely with DC INFQ US and DG US on this project.
2. The purpose of this project is to protect the
Church from Scales actions.
3. D/NAT'L SEC is responsible for the overall
planning of those actions and their debugging as
necessary.
(0049)
VITAL TARGETS
1. To ensure that extremely tight security is
maintained on this project.
2. To ensure that it gets done speedily.
3. To ensure that each aaction is smoothly worked
out so that if evaluation is necessary it will be
done without a 'hitch' or mistake.
4. To get finances quickly for this project.
5. To get approval up lines on this project "super
fast" so that it can be got done really fast.
OPERATING TARGETS
1. Each person to whom this project pertains must
immediately get his/her passport. This must be done
withing security's framework, meaning the person doesn't
mention CofS on the passport. For occupation list
Researcher - Public Relations Consultant - etc. or
houswife for girls that are married. Production
target 2 weeks on this. As assigned.
2. US D1 SEUS SEC is to work up an ED or some such
official type proclamation entitled "Sabbatical Leaves."
This can be worked out with both D/NAT'L
SEC US B1 and DDG US. The above shall basically
state that about 10 GO personnel shall be chosen
for Sabbatical leaves. This shall start with the
Founding Church in Washington DC. This is being
done as an award for upstats who consistently
produce well, and as an experiment to see what an energetic
staff member will do on his own if given 3 to 6 months
to travel and study and use scn tech. The rules are
(0050)
the persons are to:
1) To observe coventry and to not communicate to a
fellow Scientist during this time
2) They are to spend at least some of this time in
"retreat" where they are to study their choice of
topics.
3) They may travel anywhere in the world to do this.
4) They are to produce at the end of this time a
product of use to Scn.
5) They may prepare ahead of time but must start from
scratch.
This project is called "Ten Talents" after the
biblical tale. A quote should be gotten from the bible
and put into the ED. US B1 SEUS SEC
3. When the above Ed is completed, it should be sent
to all GO DC staff wherever needed. It should appear
real to those whom it does not affect. US B1 SEUS SEC
4. US B1 SEUS SEC is to work out the comm the pertinent
persons are to give on this to thier relatives or fellow
staff. This should be done ahead of time A.S .A.P so
that when and if persons have "to go" it will not
cause any flaps or PTS situations. "All" should be
ready to leave at any time. US B1 SEC
5. US B1 SEC is to ensure that all concerned are
ready to leave at any time and that all personal cycles
finances, 2D, bills, are completely up to PT and
there are no PTPs or stops to immeduate departure.
US B1 SEUS SEC.
6. US B1 SEUS SEC is to see AG DC keeps all staff
actions written up to PT and that machinery exists,
to as best as possible, take over, for each person
(including the AG) if this action were needed to be
done. This should be worked out in liason with DDG US and
(0051)
DG US. US B1 SEUS SEC.
7) US B1 SEUS SEC is to immediately do up a confidential
CS-W for "set-aside" finances for this project. This is for
seven or eight people so the amount should be about
$10,000 for starters. Any help needed on this can come
from DDG US or DG US. These finances should be given
to AG DC to hold in case this actions is implimented.
US SEUS SEC B1
8) SEUS SEC B1 is to ensure that the "need to know"
is strictly followed on this project. No communicators
are to know. The Need to Know is limited to DG US;
DDG US; DG I US, DDG I US; US b1 NAT'L SEC, D/NAT'L
SEC US; any US DG's that must know are told by DG US;
and those DG staff that this concerns.
9) SEUS SEC US B1 is to set up an "early warning" system
whereby he or DG US can be notified immediately with
any info needed to decide to put 'Failsafe' into action.
SEUS SEC US B1
10. A "safehouse" or "safehouse area" should be chosen
in an out of the way place, like a ski resort - Dude ranch -
farm - Canada - Mexico - etc., This "place" ahould be
investigated to ensure it can be used anytime of the
year by people just "showing up". This "safe
house" is for Sabbaticals to go til it is shown
one way or another that they must stay away or
come back. SEUS SEC US B1
11. A cover story as to why "they" all went there; without
the Church knowing it, must be worked out - as this
breaks Sabbatical rules. SEUS SEC US B1
12. Seven safe different places (or as many as needed)
must be worked out, where the Sabbaticals will go if
they must extend extend their leave. One for each person.
SEUS SEC US B1
(0052)
13. Secure comm lines, codes, etc., must be worked out
for this "safe house" are in #10, and each different
plave in #12 above. This must be done before any Sabbaticals
are taken. SEUS SEC US B1
14. The entire DC Org should be alerted in some way
to this Sabbatical "cover story". And if needed to be
implimented the DC Org should be informed of this
"award for" those concerned. (The one, two - 10 Talent
analogy should be used). This is to take all the
mystery off the line and make it no surprise as well as
handling any testimony in court by any staff. SEUS SEC US B1
15. When all of the above actions are worked out
to the DG I/DG US's satisfaction, a chock list, code
words, etc., are to be worked out so that if deemed
necessary the Sabbaticals will go off like clockwork.
SEUS SEC US B1
16. Upon completion of targets 1-15, D/NAT'L SEC is
to fly to DC on mission. His MO's will be the briefing
and any necessary drilling to be done to prepare the
"persons" for thier "Sabbaticals" if necessary to impliment.
MOs to be written by SEUS SEC US B1 and approved by DG I US
and DG US. SEUS SEC US B1.

MAGAZINE ARTICLES ON LEVEL 0
CHECKSHEET BY L RON HUBBARD
Dit zijn Hubbards richtlijnen voor de verspreiding van
Scientologie-materiaal. Het verhaal is om verschillende
redenen interessant. Het biedt niet-scientologen, zeg maar het
wild waarop de colporteurs in de Kalverstraat jagen en de
ontvangers van de bekende Dianetics-foldertjes over de
ongebruikte hersenen van Einstein, enig inzicht in de
trucendoos waarmee de sekte de publieke opinie tracht te
bespelen. Ook onthult het iets over de visie van de sekte op
processen. Het zijn niet de enige interne publicaties van de
sekte over deze onderwerpen. Een mooie blik achter de schermen
geeft bijvoorbeeld een ander document in de Fishmanverklaring
waarin Hubbard uitlegt hoe je getuigen op een proces
voorbereidt en in het uiterste geval in het buitenland laat
onderduiken, buiten bereik van Justitie.
Het is van belang, begint Hubbard, je gehoor niet te belasten
met materiaal dat het niet aankan: "When materials are issued
above the acceptance level of an audience, a confusion
results. A confusion in the antithesis of a flow.' Een goed
didactisch uigangspunt lijkt het, ware het niet dat Hubbard
later andere dan didactische doelen blijkt na te streven. Zo
treedt hij met voeten de richtlijn uit de didactiek: laat
mensen zelf dingen ontdekken en verwerken.
Allereerst moet Scientologie een goed publiek imago hebben,
meent Hubbard. Dat imago moet zich vooral verspreiden via mond
tot mond reclame. Hoopvol schetst hij een beeld: "For
instance, if somebody is having headaches, we would his
friends to come to the obvious solution that this person
should see a Scientologist or should join a group undergoing
processing."
Uit dit ene citaat valt al te vermoeden welke tegenstand
Hubbard voorziet bij het bereiken van deze idyllische
toestand. Een onderzoekende pers kan roet in het eten gooien,
net als de nare gewoonte van mensen om bij kwalen niet naar
een sekte maar naar hun huisarts te gaan. Er zijn figuren die
het wagen de sekte te dagvaarden, bijvoorbeeld wegens het
onbevoegd uitoefenen der geneeskunde. Geestelijken van echte
religies claimen deskundigheid op religieus gebied. Tenslotte
ligt er concurrentie op de loer die dezelfde behandelmethoden
als Scientologie toepast.
De pers is het eerste doelwit van de grote meester:
"we do not want Scientology to be reported in the press,
anywhere else than on the religious page of newspapers. It is
destructive of word of mouth to permit the public presses to
express their biased and badly reported sensationalism."
In een adem verklaart hij hier de bekende intimidatietaktiek
van de sekte van toepassing: sleep ze voor de rechter, al was
het maar om ze het noemen van Scientologie in te peperen:
"Therefore we should be very alert to sue for slander at the
slightest chance so as to discourage the public presses from
mentioning Scientology. What the newspapers say is not word of
mouth."
Ook voor mensen die zelf de sekte voor de rechter dagen heeft
Hubbard zijn juridische recept klaar. Als iemand je laat
arresteren voor het behandelen van mensen dien je onmiddelijk
een schadeclaim in van 100.000 dollar vanwege de arrestatie
van een Man van God die zijn beroep uitoefende en vanwege de
publieke beschadiging.
Je ziet Hubbard zich langzaam opwinden tijdens het schrijven:
"DO NOT simply fall back out of communication if you are
attacked, but attack, much more forcefully and artfully and
arduosly. And if you are foolish enough to have an attorney
who tells you not to sue, immediately dismiss him and get an
attorney who will sue." Met andere woorden: wat ben je
eigenlijk voor minkukel om de verkeerde advokaat te kiezen,
maar vooruit, zoek als de sodemieter een andere.
Als geen enkele advokaat het ziet zitten, heeft de sekte
altijd nog standaardformulieren klaar liggen om zelf een
proces aan te spannen. Omdat een proces dus zelfs doorgang
vindt als deskundigen, i.c. advokaten, de kans op winnen nul
achten, dringt zich ook hier de mening op dat een proces
vooral dient om het de tegenstander lastig te maken.
Hubbards adrenaline is intussen echt lekker aan het
stromen. Hij gaat helemaal uit zijn dak, verliest de
realiteit van een procesgang compleet uit het oog en
donderpreekt:
"Cause blue flame to dance over the court house roof until
everybody has apologized profusely for having dared to become
so adventurous as to arrest a Scientologist who, as a minsietr
of the church, was going about his regular duties."
Op dat moment, stel ik me voor, komt mevrouw Hubbard binnen
met de koffie en kijkt bezorgd naar haar man die
roodaangelopen achter de typemachine zit. 'Overdrijf je niet
een beetje Ronnepon', zucht ze, over zijn schouder meelezend.
En dan ziet ze weer hoe dom en parano‹de de man geworden is
waar ze ooit zo van heeft gehouden. Ik had eens een advokaat
die me aanraadde geen proces aan te spannen, antwoordt Ron,
zijn pennevrucht vervolgend, en weet je, hij bleek ook te
werken voor de tegenstander!, echt waar. "This actually
occurred, so beware of attorneys that tell you not to sue."
Ron trekt de vergelijking met een belegerd fort:
"If that fortress does not make allies, does not send forth
patrols to attack and harrass, and does not utilize itself to
make the beseiging of it a highly dangerous occupation, that
fortress may, and most often does, fall" en komt dan met de
veelgeciteerde uitspraak:
"The DEFENSE of anything is UNTENABLE. The only way to defend
anything is to ATTACK, and if you ever forget that, then you
will lose every battle you are ever engaged in, whether it is
in terms of personal conversation, public debate or court of
law." Hij schijnt echt te denken dat zijn sekte zo altijd
wint en fantaseert verder dat het grote publiek "will then
have a communication line to the effect that Scientologists
WIN. Don't ever let them have any other though that that
Scientology takes all its objectives."
Vanaf de kantelen van zijn belegerde kasteel door zijn kijker
turend ontwaart Ron telkens nieuw gevaar aan de horizon.
Zo zijn daar 'the professionals', waaronder psychologen,
artsen en psychiaters. Hubbard begrijpt niet zo goed wat de
lui bezield. Scientologie heeft met een psycholoog niet meer
moeite dan met een Australische toverdokter, schrijft hij met
neerbuigende welwillendheid. En we maken netzomin ruzie met
een psychiater als met een barbaar die niks weet van
atoomfysica. En sinds de medische professie onlangs het
aderlaten achter zich liet, heeft ze best wel wat bereikt. Ze
moeten alleen geen geld vragen voor de behandeling van kwalen
die ze toch niet kunnen genezen: spirituele, mentale,
psychosomatische en sociale kwalen. Vervolgens stapt Hubbard
zonder uitleg af van zijn zojuist nog heftig geponeerde
'Always attack' 'whether it is in terms of personal
conversation, public debate..'. Nee hij adviseert zijn
volgelingen maar liever de diskussie met deze deskundigen te
mijden. Inpalmen is nu het parool. Scientologen moeten zich
tegenover dezelfde personen die Hubbard vergelijkt met
toverdokters en barbaren voordoen als collega's met een eigen
specialisatie, met een formulering als: "I do not see how
there can be any discussion. But things that I can't handle in
structure when called upon I will be very happy to refer to
you, and I shall expect that when matters of the spirit come
into question you will have enough understanding of life,
where we are all specialists, to refer them to me" Aanvallen
doe je pas als je op het matje wordt geroepen. Dan zeg je
beschuldigend dat je je bezighoudt met zaken van de ziel. En
als de artsen die je beschuldigen Christenen zijn heb je ze
helemaal tuk, want "while you are being addressed by such
people, discover yourself to be in a strange place where men
pretending to be Christians doubt God, the Son of God, and the
power of prayer. Your entire address to such people, in such a
situation, publically or privately, should be entirely overt,
accusative, and not at any time apologetic."
Een ander belangrijk punt in positieve mond tot mond reclame
is een goede reputatie, schrijft Hubbard. Hoe ie die kan
behouden bij practisering van alle voorafgaande voorschriften
vraagt hij zich niet af. Met een onverslaanbaar optimisme
citeert hij het, zoals Karin Spaink al scherp opmerkte warrig
geformuleerde artikel 4 van de Code voor Scientologen: "I
pledge myself to punish to the fullest extent of my power
anyone misusing or degrading Scientology to harmful ends."
De enige manier om ervoor te zorgen dat Scientologie niet
omlaag wordt gehaald of misbruikt, is ervoor te zorgen dat
alleen degenen die erin getraind zijn het praktiseren.
Niet gekwalificeerde beoefenaars moet de gelegenheid geboden
worden om formeel opgeleid te worden, op eigen kosten.
Verderop in het document blijkt Hubbard dat ook weer niet zo
te bedoelen. Denk je net dat je alleen voor veel geld die
cursus moet volgen, moet je ook nog lid worden van de sekte
voor je je diploma krijgt. In tegenstelling tot medici aan wie
in het algemeen belang op universiteiten een schat aan
medische kennis is onderwezen, zijn beoefenaars van
Scientologie-methoden gebonden aan de copyrights op de
methoden. "In view of the fact that the HASI (organisatie van
Scientologen) holds copyrights for all such material, and that
a scientific organization of materials can be copyrighted and
therefore owned." Geen lid van de sekte en wel de mensheid
dienen met haar heilzame methoden? Voor de rechter wordt je
gesleept, op zijn minst. Met weinig variatie varieert Hubbard
op de riedel "The purpose of the suit is to harass and
discourage rather than win."
Als laatste verschijnt de aalmoezenier van de vijandelijke
troepen aan de muren van Hubbards fort. Zo'n patertje is
makkelijk af te wimpelen: "In addressing persons
professionally interested in the ministry, we have another
intersting problem in public presentation. We should not
engage in religious discussions." doceert hij zijn
manschappen. Ook hier ruilt hij zijn gloedvolle 'always
attack' in voor een mix van discussie ontlopen, minachting en
inpalmen. Een hautain "They believe in belief and substitute
belief for wisdom." Hij voelt wel dat hier een schoen wringt,
ook Scientologie claint immers een religie, een geloof, te
zijn. Maar terwijl ze bij al die andere religies slechts
geloven in het geloof, weten de Scientologen wat ze weten.
"This makes Scientology no less a religion, but makes it a
religion with an older tradition and puts it on an
intellectual plane." "We are all-denominational rather than
non-demoninational, and we should be perefectly willing to
include in our ranks a Moslem, or a Taoist, as well as any
Protestant or Catholic". Ziezo. Het klinkt niet echt
overtuigend, maar misschien overtuigend genoeg voor zijn
discipelen en de positie tegenover de Amerikaanse
belastingdienst is veilig gesteld.
Midden in een zin houdt de passage op.
OT I
L.Ron Hubbard
There have been three different OT Its put out by Hubbard.
here
they all are.
Earliest OT T
1. On an E-Meter, find the last 3,000 years of lifetimes.
Plot
out the entire 3,000 year chart as follows:
(a) Find an overt lifetime. Get the identity and the
approximate dates of birth and death. Find the overt
and pull all the justifications to it.
(b) Find the following motivator lifetime, and follow
procedure as above. (Identity and dates.)
(c) Find the postulate from each lifetime and the basic
postulate in each group of lifetimes.
(d) Continue the first three steps until the entire 3,000
years is charted and the individuals kharma, i.e. (over
motivator sequence) becomes apparent.
-1-
(0060)
(e) In some cases additional benefit could be obtained by
locating the basic misunderstood which proceeded the
basic overt on this chain.
Second OT I
(a) Route I ... The entire 15 steps as listed in "Creation
of Human Ability".
(b) With an E-Meter, scan out entire present lifetime to a
floating needle.
(c) Mock-up heat until body feels warm.
(d) Postulating mass: With the use of the E-Meter and the
command "I have Mass", create a reactive mind. Put
sufficient significance on to,it to cause the T.A- to
rise. Then spot it until the T.A. falls and the mass
erases. Run to an FIN. Then mock it up again and erase
it each time to a floating needle. This procedure is
repeated until the pre-OT is certain he can create and
dissipate a reactive mind.
Third OT I
The current OT I is done outdoors and consists solely of one
-2-
(0061)
command run until cognition.
"Spot a person"
concludes OT I
-3-
(0062)
The fragments of OT II en OT III have been replaced by
summaries by Karin Spaink (thanks Karin), who not only did the
enormous job of trieing to understand al this terrible jargon
but als made those summaries much more readable than Hubbards
original texts. It makes you understand why Hubbard failed as
a science fiction writer and tried something else.
The copyright of the summaries stays with Karin Spaink
OT II Course, summary and comments
In OT 2,
OT COURSE - SECTION TWO - INSTRUCTIONS
Hubbard gives instructions for the 'whole track tables', that
is: the
timeline of trillions of years of memory Scientologists claim
to have. There
are supposedly ten of them. In the following I will try to
summarize it,
because my lawyer, after having finally having seen evidence
handed over to
him on behalf of RTC, has advised me that including the full
text is at this
time against my interests. So be it. I therefore will give you
this summary,
taken from Michael Robinson's article Opa
rating Thetan
Summary and Analysis.Your comments are kindly invited.
Please correct
any errors and tell me about any information that I may have
missed.
According to Hubbard, there are ten of these 'whole
track' tables or time
lines. Each time line contains only one GPM or 'Goals Problems
Mass'
(according to Martin Hunt's dictionary: "a supposed mass which
develops when
one is thwarted from reaching a Goal by a Problem or stop.")
Each set should
be run separately:
The GPM found in each set are as follows: ELECTRICAL, TOCKY,
BIG BEING,
HOUSE, PSYCHO, BANKY, FORERUNNER, BASIC-BASIC, BASIC, THE
COMMAND, LOWER LP,
LP, and BODY GPM. In addition to these GPM, there are a number
of Implant
Incidents which have no line plot, as follows: THE
ARROW, DOUBLE ROD, WOMAN, WHITE BLACK SPHERE, HOT COLD,
LAUGHTER CALM, and DANCE MOB.
The GPM in these "whole track tables" are supposedly the
residual mass of
incidents
that happened untold numbers of lifetimes ago to the
individual's immortal
"thetan".
Approximate dates for each of the incidents are provided,
although some, such as
"about trillions 214th Power years ago" for the BASIC BASIC
GPM, challenge
credulity regardless.
The version of Level Two reproduced in the Fishman Declaration
is incomplete. A
summary of the available GPM follows:
The GPM in these "whole track tables" are supposedly the
residual mass
of incidents that happened untold numbers of lifetimes ago to
the
individual's immortal "thetan". Approximate dates for each of
the
incidents are provided, although some, such as "about
trillions 214th
Power years ago" for the BASIC BASIC GPM, challenge credulity
regardless.
The version of Level Two reproduced in the Fishman Declaration
is
incomplete. A summary of the available GPM follows:
ELECTRICAL
The purpose of the ELECTRICAL GPM was to "CONVINCE a thetan he
should
think of himself as an electrical being". Thus, the end word
of the
permutation is not a word, but a shock. The permutation for
the
ELECTRICAL GPM is as follows:
| Create | | (shock) |
| Destroy | | no (shock) |
| Love |
| Hate |
| Be |
| Disown |
| Use |
| Condemn |
| Seize |
| Escape |
TOCKY
In the TOCKY GPM, there is a swing of "Sun" from left to right
which
gives a read after each item. The permutation for the TOCKY
GPM is
as follows:
| Create | | Sun Swing |
| Abide | | no Sun Swing |
| Enjoy |
| Welcome |
| Share |
| Keep |
| Hold |
| Exploit |
| Deplore |
| Skip |
| Continue |
| Forget |
Also included are the following two cryptic commands:
"That's what you get for making this Universe."
"Get Out-"
No explanation is given for what is "that", who exactly is
"you",
which universe is "this Universe", nor exactly "out" of what
or where
one is to get. Either it is expected that all these
ambiguities will
be clarified at the time one runs this GPM, or that the
ambiguities
are irrelevant, and it is sufficient simply to run the GPM
without
this information.
BIG BEING
The BIG BEING GPM is associated with the image of an explosion
and
the subsequent appearance of a BIG BEING (thus the name) in
the sky.
The permutation for the BIG BEING GPM is as follows:
| You | | Must | | Survive |
| He | | Mustn't |
| They | | Should |
| We | | Shouldn't |
| All | | Can |
| Can't |
This is followed by another explosion.
THE HOUSE
The only identification of this GPM is the possible appearance
of a
house or internal room.
THE ARROW
In the space of 1/10th of a second, an image appears of two
back-to-back
targets, the front white, and the back black, with an arrow
centered on
each of the targets (the two arrows thus aimed at each other).
WOMAN
The figure of a woman appears for a few hours. Nothing else.
WHITE BLACK SPHERE
An image of a sphere and a pole, black in front, white in
back.
HOT COLD
For 1 1/8 seconds an image appears of a split pole, cold in
front, hot
in back.
LAUGHTER CALM
For 7 1/8ths of a second, in a cave, screams of very wild
laughter come
from the rear (then front) of a split pole, while calm ("a
frozen
numbness") comes from the front (then rear), giving a
sensation of total
disagreement.
"The trick is to conceive of both at the same time."
DANCE MOB
In the incident proper, one is stuck on a pole and trying to
get off it.
After this, a chanting mob dances around. The Pre-OT is
supposed to get
the phrases the mob chants while running this incident.
However, the duration is only 7/8ths of a second, so it is not
clear how
much of the chanting the Pre-OT will be able to "get".
DOUBLE ROD
A long shiny black rod moves from left to right, develops a
split in the
middle, becoming a white rod revolving forward and a black rod
revolving
backward. Both rods then disappear forward and up.
According to L. Ron Hubbard:
"There is a tremendous feeling of EXCITEMENT attached to
this incident. It has a sort of feeling attached to it as
if it was being squashed between the two revolving rods."
BASIC BASIC
This is actually a series of 5 GPM's consisting of explosions
inside
ones head, "where the Thetan is."
THE LOWER BANK
Contained in the lower bank are 48 pairs (of which 8 are found
in the
Fishman Declaration). All 48 affirmative items are first run,
then the
negative items, than each pair together. The pair schematic
is as
follows:
Affirmative: To build a _______ingness machine.
Negative: Not to _______ yourself.
The eight listed items are: postulate, think, ideanize
(ideafyingness),
reason, solve, order, space, and time.
OT III Course, summary and comments
OT III Course, summary and comments
In OT 3,
OPERATING THETAN
Section Three
Hubbard explains his cosmology and the ins & outs of 'body
thetans'. I
will try to summarize it, because my lawyer, after having
finally having
seen evidence handed over to him on behalf of RTC, has advised
me that
including the full text is at this time against my interests.
So be it. I
therefore will give you this summary, interspersed with
comments. Your
comments are kindly invited. Please correct any errors and
tell me about any
information that I may have missed. Page numbers refer to the
version of OT
3 as given in the Fishman Affidavit.
The following portion of OT 3 is quoted in full in
Margery Wakefield's book
The Road to Xenu, chapter 13, and I believe all of it
has been
quoted in other books and articles as well. It provides a nice
context for
my summary and comments:
The head of the Galactic Federation (76 planets around
larger
stars visible from here) (founded 95,000,000 years ago,
very
space opera) solved overpopulation (250 billion or so per
planet,
178 billion on average) by mass implanting. He caused
people to
be brought to Teegeeack (Earth) and put an H-Bomb on the
principal volcanos (Incident II) and then the Pacific area
ones
were taken in boxes to Hawaii and the Atlantic area ones to
Las Palmas and there "packaged".
His name was Xenu. He used renegades. Various misleading
data by means of circuits etc. was placed in the implants.
When through with his crime loyal officers (to the people)
captured him after six years of battle and put him in an
electronic mountain trap where he still is. "They" are
gone.
The place (Confederation) has since been a desert. The
length
and brutality of it all was such that this Confederation
never
recovered. The implant is calculated to kill (by pneumonia
etc)
anyone who attempts to solve it. This liability has been
dispensed with by my tech development.
One can freewheel through the implant and die unless it is
approached as precisely outlined. The "freewheel"
(auto-running
on and on) lasts too long, denies sleep etc and one dies.
So be
careful to do only Incidents I and II as given and not plow
around and fail to complete one thetan at a time.
In December 1967 I knew someone had to take the plunge. I
did
and emerged very knocked out, but alive. Probably the only
one
ever to do so in 75,000,000 years. I have all the data now,
but
only that given here is needful.
One's body is a mass of individual thetans stuck to oneself
or
to the body.
One has to clean them off by running incident II and
Incident I.
It is a long job, requiring care, patience and good
auditing.
You are running beings. They respond like any preclear.
Some
large, some small.
Thetans believed they were one. This is the primary error.
Good luck.
(p. 76-77) Well, lots of things to dissect and discuss here,
and perhaps
even more things that need some elucidation before we can even
begin to
understand what Hubbard says in this rather strange and
condensed tidbit.
But before we start, I believe it may be useful to first
explain some more
about Scientology's basic beliefs; otherwise it's difficult to
make head or
tails of the quote.
Jon Atack, who once was a member of Scientology and who
has in fact
completed OT 3 before he became a very effective critic of the
cult, has
provided us with a very useful analysis, OT 3
rewritten for
beginners. Here's what Jon says:
Scientologists believe that they have reincarnated from before
the beginning
of time. They believe that many interplanetary civilizations
have existed.
Hubbard restyled the spirit the "thetan".
Before the
beginning of time, thetans existed, separate from one another
(thetans were
not created; they have existed for all time and indeed precede
the creation
of time). With the creation of energy and matter, thetans have
gradually
become trapped. The principal method of entrapment is through
"implanting", where the thetan is hypnotised
and given
positive suggestions which limit its powers. This process,
according to
Hubbard has been going on in this universe for four
quadrillion years
(4,000,000,000,000,000, rather than the mere 8-20,000,000 held
by
astrophysicists). However, this is just one universe in a
series of several.
Scientology seeks to return the thetan's power by
stripping away implants
and using drills to heighten extrasensory perception and
ability. The goal
of these procedures is an "operating thetan"
- a being who
can act independently of his physical body, and can cause
physical events to
occur through sheer force of will. The "operating thetan"
would be capable
of dismissing illness and psychological disorder in others at
will.
Now that we know that, let's go through it again. Here's
how the story
start:
The head of the Galactic Federation (76 planets around
larger
stars visible from here) (founded 95,000,000 years ago,
very
space opera) solved overpopulation (250 billion or so per
planet,
178 billion on average) by mass implanting. He caused
people to
be brought to Teegeeack (Earth) and put an H-Bomb on the
principal volcanos (Incident II) and then the Pacific area
ones
were taken in boxes to Hawaii and the Atlantic area ones to
Las Palmas and there "packaged".
(p. 77)
Hubbard believes in various universes, an idea that has
been explored in
sci-fi under the name of 'parallel universes'. Hubbard
postulates that 95
million years ago, in our particular universe, a
Galactic
Federation was founded. There are, according to him,
seventy-six
planets that have gained membership to it. Sure bigger than
the United
Nations, and very space-opera indeed.
According to Hubbard, earth was once part of this
Federation. It suffered
from severe overpopulation; an average 178 billion people per
planet is
indeed rather crowded. The head of the Federation, whose name
is later on to
be revealed as 'Xenu', although some people
think it's
'Xemu' (Hubbard's handwriting is spidery, and thus easy to
misread) took
draconian measures to reduce the number of inhabitants. Xenu
transported the
lot of them to earth, then referred to as
'Teegeeack'.
After transportation, Xenu used hydrogen bombs on various
volcanos and
thereby wiped out all these people. Very effective indeed. He
then proceeded
to carry off their souls/spirits or 'thetans' and 'implanted'
those. This
episode - the transport, the bombing, the implanting - was
labelled
'Incident II' by Hubbard.
In the other universes, other things happened. All
thetans on this planet
and on twenty-one nearby stars have Incident II and 'R6' in
common. Hubbard
refers to these twenty-two planets as 'the Confederation'.
It might be worth mentioning here that the Sea
Org's
insigna carries twenty-two stars. The number of stars
is surely not
chosen haphazardly: the insigna is obviously intended to be a
symbol of this
confederation that had to 'suffer' Incident II.
The other planets within the Galactic Federation - there
were seventy-six
of them, Hubbard says - supposedly have their own version of
Incident II.
And other universes - remember, Hubbard believed in parallel
universes -
would probably have other versions of Incident II as well. But
what
all universes have in common, according to Hubbard,
is
Incident I. He describes it in just a few
lines and
obviously didn't give the matter much thought, or perhaps he
didn't dare 'to
take the plunge' into this one. Hubbard doesn't say how much
time this
incident took, nor does he locate it. He's also noteably
silent upon what
happened in between Incident I and II, if I may say so.
Incident I
Occurs at start of track (4 quadrillion years ago).
LOUD SNAP
WAVES OF LIGHT
CHARIOT COMES OUT, TURNS RIGHT AND LEFT
CHERUB COMES OUT
BLOWS HORN, COMES CLOSE
SHATTERING SERIES OF SNAPS
CHERUB FADES BACK (RETREATS)
BLACKNESS DUMPED ON THETAN
(p. 99-100)
Judging by this, I don't think Hubbard supported either
the Bing Bang or
the Expanding Universe-theory in his private cosmology,
although both make
much more sense than his. Let's lable this one the Snap Story.
We have here
an undecisive cherub, who doesn't know whether to turn left or
right and who
comes out twice without ever retreating; and we have horns. A
bit angelic
for somebody who, as we shall see later, believed that Christ
was an
implant.
Let's turn to Incident II, which allegedly happened 75
million years ago
and occurred on earth:
Incident II is over 36 days long. Capture on other planets
was weeks or months before the implant. Those on Teegeeack
(Earth) were just blown up except for Loyal officers who
were (shortly before the explosion on Earth) rounded up.
(p. 79) So Xenu captured everybody who did not live on earth,
held them
imprisoned for a few weeks or sometimes even months, and then
transported
them to earth and mixed them with the rest, that is: the
people who did live
there. He then proceeded to nuke the lot. Just a few loyal
officers escaped
this major hydrogen bombing. Judging from this excerpt, it
would seem that
Hubbard conjures that loyal officers were only to be found on
earth. That's
exobiotist, I think... I also wonder where they went?
Incident II is described in greater detail. Here's the
'sequence':
H-BOMB DROPPED ON VOLCNO
EXPLOSION
TERRIFIC WINDS
THETAN CARRIED OVER PEAK
ELECTRONIC RIBBON CAME UP
HE STUCK TO IT
IT WAS THEN PULLED DOWN AND HE WAS (AS PART OF A GROUP)
IMPLANTED WITH R6
PICTURE OF PILOT SAYING HE IS MOCKING IT UP
(p. 99)
Every bit as cryptic, but at least he elaborates on it
throughout OT 3. The
bit about the thetan, the soul or spirit of a nuked-out guy,
getting stuck
to an electric ribbon surely reflects Margery Wakefield's
comparison of them
to insects: upon hearing for the first time about body
thetans, she said
they sounded like flees. Based on this description, I'd vote
for flies.
Another nicety is the pilot mentioned in the last part of
the sequence.
Sounds like the ending of a bad horror movie: 'T was all a
dream... But
although 'mocking something up' usually means 'imagining it',
in
Scieno-lingo it means more than a mental picture; it is
supposedly a
self-created object; it is a thing which one can be.
Operating Thetans are,
again supposedly, able to 'mock up' a picture that has
dimensions and
location in space and time.
After the bombing, the thetans were 'implanted'. Hubbard
decribes the
'sequence' of the 'implant' thus:
(1) capture (being shot),
(2) freezing,
(3) transport to Teegeeack (sometimes via a relay point),
(4) being placed near a volcano,
(5) beginning implant up to "the pilot",
(6) various picture sequences,
(7) the 7s and C.C. and OT II materials,
(8) 36 days of picture implants which give a vast array of
materials and three explanations for the bombing,
(9) transport to Hawaii or Las Palmas for packaging up
into
clusters.
The pictures contain God, the Devil, angels, space opera,
theaters, helicopters, a constant spinning, a spinning
dancer,
trains and various scenes very like modern England. You
name it,
it's in this implant we call in its entirely "R6".
(p. 80).
Jon Atack gives some more details than I've been able to
find in the
Fishman-version of OT 3. For instance, he explains
how the thetans
were transported, according to Hubbard:
The people were killed and the thetans (or spirits) gathered,
frozen in a
mixture of glycol and alcohol, and brought to Earth where they
were placed
near volcanoes which were exploded with hydrogen bombs. The
thetans were
gathered on "electronic ribbons", packaged together as
clusters and given 36
days of implanting, to render them servile and
incapable of decision.
So what happens is that they're caught, transported, nuked,
get implanted up
to a certain point (the pilot saying it was all mocked up) and
then get fed
pictures. They're also given the '7s' (a set of supposed
implants, and for
the life of me, I don't know which; I don't know if Hubbard
does, either. He
does not further describe it in OT 3). 'C.C.' is the clearing
course, the
courses Scientologist have to finish before they are allowed
to do the OT's.
It strikes me as rather funny that Hubbard says they were fed
OT 2 as well:
something is coming full circle here. I think it helps
Scientologist to
relate to these poor imprisoned inoperate thetans: after all,
it means
they're at the same point in their studies. After they're fed
OT 2, it's
movie-time again. Thirty six days, no less! Then they're
transported again
and delivered at the volcanos.
What strikes me as odd, is that in the description of
Incident II itself
the thetans get to be implanted before they encounter this
pilot who says
it's all mocked up; but during this implant, they are
"implanted up
to 'the pilot'". Mirrors in mirrors here... The gist of the
implanting, as
per Hubbard, are pictures of theaters, trains, helicopters,
and modern
British life. Pictures of God and the devil are part of it,
Hubbard says
here. This of course is a statement highly objectionable to
those who adhere
to Christianity. Elsewhere Hubbard happens to mention that
Christ was part
of the implant too.
'R6' is short for the 'reactive mind', i.e. the whole of
the implant during
OT 3. The 'reactive mind' is also being referred to as 'bank'
(short for:
memory bank).
Hubbard repeatedly states that this is all 'fact'. Fact,
not fiction. But
he obviously chose to ignore a few harder facts, and his story
is in
flagrant contradiction with, for instance, geology. In Jon
Atack's words:
OT 3 is of course in substantial disagreement with
conventional geology.
Geologists hold that almost all of the volcanoes listed by
Hubbard and both
Hawaii and Los Palmas came into being far more recently than
75 million
years ago. On a simple point of logic, it seems strange that
none of these
volcanoes was damaged by the explosion of the hydrogen bombs.
One of these scientific refutations may be found on my
homepage: Peter
Fordes Scientific
Scrutiny of OT 3. Hubbard's 'facts' flunk on astrophysics:
our universe
is much younger that he believes it to be. So be well advised
and take
Hubbard's story as fiction rather than fact.
There's another confusing paragraph:
His name was Xenu. He used renegades. Various misleading
data by means of circuits etc. was placed in the implants.
(p. 76) Ahhh, here we have the first occurence of the name of
the Beast,
sometimes also referred to as 'the Dark Prince': Xenu. The
name 'Xenu' is
shunned by most Scientologist: they will not speak it, and try
to prevent
others from reading it. (There's this one guy on a.r.s. who
carefully edits
'Xenu' out of the name of Steven Fishman's account any time he
replies to
Fishman: he changes it into zenu@ix.netcom.com instead. Rather
funny, in
fact.) Or Scientologists will pretend they've never heard of
Xenu, in
adherence with their belief that OT 3 is very secret and must
not revealed
to or be discussed with anybody whatsoever.
So Xenu availed himself of renegades to carry out his
devillish plot. But
renegades of what? Xenu was the leader of the
Galactic Federation,
according to Ron, wasn't he? So if they were renegades, you
would hardly
expect them to plot with Xenu, but rather against,
wouldn't you? It
doesn't make sense. Even fiction needs a coherent plot and
should not mess
up details.
The next sentence deals with the content of the
'implants'. According to Hubbard, implants
are 'false
memories', a kind of post-hypnotic suggestion. Here he
describes them as
'misleading data'. Hubbard explains that Xenu and his
renegades used
'circuits' to place this misleading data in the populace. It's
a shame he
doesn't give more details. He was a sci-fi writer, wasn't he?
So surely he
should have been able to come up with something. Now I can't
help but think
of this movie of Johnnie Mnemonic and hismemory
bank...
When through with his crime loyal officers (to the people)
captured him after six years of battle and put him in an
electronic mountain trap where he still is. "They" are
gone.
The place (Confederation) has since been a desert. The
length
and brutality of it all was such that this Confederation
never
recovered. The implant is calculated to kill (by pneumonia
etc)
anyone who attempts to solve it. This liability has been
dispensed with by my tech development.
(p. 76) Loyal officers - that is: loyal to the people, but I
think that from
Xenu's point of view we would have the real renegades here,
considering
what's up next - some officers captured Xenu after his
frightful misdeeds.
It was not an easy catch: it took six years of battle. These
officers then
proceeded by caging Xenu in and trapping him in a mountain on
one of the
Federation's planets. Hubbard believes that Xenu is still
there, supposedly
alive. According to Hubbard, the place where all this happened
has suffered
severly and is still bare.
Hubbard turns to the implant now. It is allegedly deadly:
'calculated to
kill (by pneumonia etc)', but he quickly ensures his readers
that he himself
has developed the tech to deal with that, and render the
implant harmless.
One can freewheel through the implant and die unless it is
approached as precisely outlined. The "freewheel"
(auto-running
on and on) lasts too long, denies sleep etc and one dies.
So be
careful to do only Incidents I and II as given and not plow
around and fail to complete one thetan at a time.
(p. 76-77) Now it's becoming complicated. Untill now, this was
just a nice
sci-fi story starring evil princes, but now we'll get
entangled in
Scieno-speak: lots of lingo to come.
Hubbard here explains his followers how to deal with the
implants placed in
us in Incident I and II. Remember, Scientologists
'run'
things. They 'run' a routine, for instance, or a procedure.
'Running' means:
going over a memory or following an auditing procedure. You
can also
'overrun' something, meaning that you take a routine or
prcedure beyond the
end of an auditing process. To put it simply, when you
'overrun' something,
you didn't stop in time. I take it that 'auto-running' is
meant to denote
that a procedure or routine takes off by itself, and just goes
'on and on'.
'Freewheeling' must be akin to running in circles at
perpetuum. Hubbard
believes that it will kill a person.
But what about this: 'fail to complete one thetan at a
time'. I take it
that that's a body thetan. But how do you 'take' them? I think
I need help
on this. Jon?
On OT 3, the individual finds "body thetans" by locating any
sensation of
pressure or mass in his or her body. This is addressed
"telepathically" as a
cluster, and taken through the cluster-making incident of 75
million years
ago. Once this is done, the individual body thetans should be
available to
be taken through either the same incident or through incident
one. (...)
According to OT 3, everyone on Earth is in fact a collection
of such
clusters (Hubbard says that each person doing OT 3 will find
"hundreds" of
body thetans - many victims of this course believe that they
find millions).
Thanks, Jon. So one needs to take all one's body thetans
through one of
these Incidents, one by one. Sounds like a lot of work indeed.
In December 1967 I knew someone had to take the plunge. I
did
and emerged very knocked out, but alive. Probably the only
one
ever to do so in 75,000,000 years. I have all the data now,
but
only that given here is needful.
(p. 77) Oh-wee! Hubbard dived straight into the implant! The
first one to do
so in 75 million years! Such a shame that he does not give
'all the data'
but holds back on us. Now he's dead and we'll never
know all the
details of his space soap opera. Oh well. Star Wars
is still being
televised. At least Hubbard had the grace to explain about
these body
thetans of his:
One's body is a mass of individual thetans stuck to oneself
or
to the body.
(p. 77) So we are made up of this 'mass of individual thetans'
that are
stuck to us. Yuk. And they can form clusters too! "A
cluster is a group of body thetans crushed or
hold together
by some mutual bad experience," that's what I read somewhere.
I bet the
mutual bad experience is either Incident I or Incident II.
One has to clean them off by running incident II and
Incident I.
It is a long job, requiring care, patience and good
auditing.
You are running beings. They respond like any preclear.
Some
large, some small.
(p. 77) See? I was right. But 'running beings'? I guess it's
following
processes not unlike those the pre-clear use when they're
'running an
engram', the difference being that they now 'run body
thetans'. And the body
thetans behave like pre-clears. Hmm, do they have to hand in
stats too?
Thetans believed they were one. This is the primary error.
Good luck.
(p. 77). 'Primary error', sounds like 'primary sin'. And these
Scientologist
believe all that? Wow. And gee, thanks for the good wishes. I
think that the
Scientologist who has just started on OT 3 and has just read
all this, could
use them. Quite a few of them took a real fright, I've
gathered. And what
exactly happens to the body thetan when you get rid of it?
Does it jump on
somebody else? No, they don't, Hubbbard says. It's explaned a
bit further in
the text.
Body Thetans are just Thetans. When you get rid of one he
goes off and possibly squares around, picks up a body or
admires daisies. He is in fact a sort of cleared Being. He
cannot fail to eventually, if not at once, regain many
abilities. Many have been asleep for the last 75,000,000
years. A Body Thetan responds to any process any Thetan
responds to.
(p. 78) Many body thetans 'have been asleep for the last 75
million years'?
They sure outdo Sleeping Beauty! And when the Scientologist
has rid himself
of one of these body thetans, the little thingies may pick up
a body of
their own. They even like daisies! Where's all the sci-fi
gone, I wonder,
and the horror?
So what the Scientologist needs to do, is audit all these
body thetans,
that is: lead them through Incident II, and perhaps I. Then
they'll be off.
Every body thetan has to be processed individually. I couldn't
find a
reference as to their numbers. There might be hundreds; could
be more, could
be less. If you find none, Hubbard says, one needs to go back
to some basic
courses and perhaps file for a 'Review', that is, a serious
talk with one's
supervisor, because finding no body thetans is out of the
question.
In a chapter called 'The Basic on BT's', Hubbard goes on
to explain that
body thetans tend to stick together. They form 'clusters' by
collision; they
keep a picture of this collision, and, in turn, this picture
attracts yet
other body thetans. (I remember this fairy tale in which a boy
with a swan
starred; everybody wanted to touch the swan, but once they
had, they
couldn't get loose. After the first person got stuck, someone
tried to pull
him loose. He in urn got stuck as well. And the next. And the
next.
Hubbard's story reminds me of this tale.) Hubbard then goes in
a complicated
spin, explaining how the collision and the picture of the
collision conflate:
Thus we get the concept of a "black theta body". This
would
be actual BT's stuck to a thetan plus pictures of BT's
stuck to a
thetan.
(p. 81) The solution to this tangled web of stuck body thetans
and pictures
of stucked body thetans stuck to thetans, is to try and trace
the first
incident or 'picture' of such a collision or contact, and work
from there.
What one has to do is break up the cluster. Clusters are
usually derived
from Incident II (one is never sure though; they might date
back to Incident
I). In the real big clusters that are formed in Incident II,
these clusters
even have hierarchies within the partaking body thetans:
Incident II sometimes forms gigantic clusters. In such
there
is a leader, an alternate leader and several (eight to
eighteen)
more.
(p. 83) There is alas no reference to the function of
this
leadership and alternate leadership. Perhaps it's just for the
heck of it;
after al, they're nasty implanted little bastards. I t is even
quite common
to find that there are clusters made up out of clusters:
In doing a cluster one is likely to find it is made up of
other earlier clusters.
(p. 90) So how does one break up a cluster? Take 'em through
Incident II and
then they'll losen up, so that you can address the individual
body thetans.
As I said before, a lot of work to do here.
Another complication is that it will sometimes only
appear as if a
body thetan isn't gone, but he fooled ya. He is gone indeed.
He just left a
trace of himself, and what you are trying to audit away is not
the thingie
itself:
Thetans in the body may obsessively copy the pictures of
other thetans. Therefore you can find it seems that the
thetan
who just left is still there because there is a picture
left.
(p. 85) While this may be a nasty trick, there's worse that
you may encounter:
Some Body Thetans are suppressive. A suppressive is out of
valence in R6. He is in valence in Incident I almost
always.
(p. 78) Suppressive body thetans! Wouldn't you know. Hubbard
sees
suppressives everywhere. What do you want to do with them?
Send them to
Ethics? Expel tem from Scientology? Fair game them?
But what is a suppressive body thetan? In
Scieno-speak, 'valence'
is an adopted personality; 'being out of valence' therefore
means behaving
as if you're someone else; imposturing, so to say. So when
Hubbard says that
a body thetan is 'out of valence' in 'R6' - R6 being the
Incident II implant
- I guess what he means is that this particular body thetans
pretend to be
linked with the bombing, while in fact they're linked with the
cherubs and
the Snap Story. The little pranksters!
According to Hubbard, when one manages to rid oneself of
all body thetans,
one will be able to "accomplish full stable exteriorization"
with full
perception, that is: get out of your body and move at will
through the
universe. As L. Ron Hubbard puts
it:
"OT III is a vital grade. One fronts up to it and does it.
When he is really done, the rewards of OT III and IV
exceed his wildest dreams."
(p. 93). For me, I think it's not wild at all. Wildly mad, at
best.

For completion's sake, and because my grasp of such an
ephemere subject as
that of body thetans is quite flimsy (and I intend to keep it
that way) I
further include an exerpt from a book written by Geoffrey
Filbert,
Excalibur Revisted that deals with OT 3 as well.
Filbert goes on at
length about the body thetans and the pocedures one should
apply on them.
Excalibur Revisted was published in electronic
form, and Mr
Filbert has given it to the public domain in the fall of 1994.
It is,
amongst others, available via America Online and has been
since December
1994. The material is in fact copyright by Filbert; he
recieved his
copyright registration on April 25, 1982. Scientology recieved
their first
copyright filings for their OT 3 material on May 12, 1982...
So I guess
Filbert predates them. These are pages 266 - 268.
OT III
1. Check for any BTs (E-meter, theta perceptics, intention,
pressure
areas, telepathy is HOW) on and in:
- Body surface (WHERE)
- Body inside
- In thetan's space (Approx. 40' X 60')
- On thetan
2. Run Incident 2, then Incident 1, until BT(s) have gone and
are
released. Then, check for additional Incidents 1's and 2's
until
dry (on the meter).
3. Return to Step 2, to find new ones to run. Use ruds while
running if
necessary. There is an effort to stop and hurry on Incident 1.
4. When complete, exact date and run both of the incidents on
self.
5. If a bog, do Millazo Pack. Write down some 'mutual
associations'. Re
each one on this list, FIND THE INCIDENT THAT MADE THEM
ONE, and run that. Then, run OT III, Incident 2 and 1 after
that
cluster is broken up. Occasionally, BTs will have an incident
that made
them one other then Incident 2, thus this action.
INCIDENT 2: Dates approx. 75 million years ago, earth years,
location, Earth, named TEEGEEACK at that time
(meaning planet of sorrow), involved 33 planets of this
sector, each with populations of 80 - 200 BILLION PER
PLANET. XENU, the ruler, and 'Renegades' decided to
solve overpopulation as follows, but was halted and XENU
placed in a mountain trap after over 5 years of war.
Incident 2 Patter: DETERMINE IF A LOYAL OFFICER, RESIDENT
OF EARTH, or FROM ANOTHER PLANET. If the latter
two, start at their being picked up and shot and if from
another planet, frozen in an ice cube, transported
(flying saucer), taken to mountain, a volcano always, H
BOMB EXPLOSION, TERRIFIC WINDS, EFFORT TO
ORIENT, MAGNETIC STRIP UP FROM CENTER OF VOLCANO OR DOWN
FROM AN AIRPLANE, EFFORT TO GET OFF AND FIND REST OF
SELF, PROTEST, BEING PULLED ON STRIP, VISUAL DISPLAY OF
INSTRUCTION BY A 'GO TO THE PILOT', WHO SAYS
'HE'S MOCKING IT UP'. There are 26 - 29 days of
implanting (the CC and OT II, God and Devil material,
reasons for this being done, helicopters, etc.) that need
not be run. SOME WERE PACKAGED INTO CLUSTERS
in the HAWAII and LOS PALMAS ISLANDS (8 to a
cluster). If a loyal officer, the sequence is SURPRISE at
being shot, placed at the volcano. Use meter to
determine and determine volcano. Watch for earlier
beginning (pulled in for a tax audit), run only up to the
'HE'S MOCKING IT UP' as BTs can go into 'free fall', spin
and get sick from the 29 days implanting, with pneumonia
and death the implanted phenomena of free
fall in addition to insomnia. Coltus, the Reigning
planet, Hubbard a part of the 'rescuing force that put an
end to it'. Don't force or push them off, and answer the
BTs questions. There were probably not any good or bad
guys in this incident, although Hubbard insists the
sector to have been a cultural desert since. Very SP BTs
can usually be brought around with adept 2WC, Charm,
Ruds, but if not use Power Processing on the rare hard
core.

You clear up that a BT is a body thetan, The instructions are
self
explanatory, Basically, the reason they are doing this is to
where they
won't be confused with hundreds of different thoughts so that
they can
have some peace and quiet, and so they won't be
other-determined. After
they have run all these remnants of folks out by telepathic
auditing on
them, they attain the state of freedom from overwhelm and a
return of
full self determinism. One cleans off those 4 areas in the
order listed.
It is generally underrun, it is rarely overrun, What you have
been doing
all the way up the Bridge is breaking these clusters apart.
With Expanded
Dianetics, Grades and all the previous auditing, you have been
taking these
off. About 1/2 of the BTs come off and leave and go live their
own lives by
doing the lower Bridge right, and the other 1/2 come off here
by doing OT
III correctly. So, if you don't do the lower Bridge correctly
on someone
and they do a real good job on OT III, they will get about 1/2
of it done.
It is pretty wild material to run and the gains of it are
beyond
description. It is not a crazy idea at all. The irony of it is
that it
happened alot more than once. It is listed as an event that
happened 75
million years ago. It probably happened to the preclear dozens
of times. So,
watch out for your dates.
After that you do not do OT VII, and then put them on OT III
again, like the
churches do. You do OT IV which is included here. After they
have
done that they have attained the state of certainty of self as
a being
and freedom from uncertainty of self.
On OT V they attain the state of freedom from fixated
introversion into
MEST and gain the ability to refamiliarize as a thetan
exterior with the
physical universe.

Has completed OT III
OT IV Warning.
This is in fact a grade. Therefore to run it without setting
the case up fully is to waste it.
Often the case has to:
(1) Be discharged with a lot of corrective actions and
(2) OT ill must be run on the PC by the auditor or at least
cleaned up. It might not be uncommon to have to do half
or more of the C/Ses in the book before doing the OT IV
Rundown.
If one holds off and really flies the case, then the person
(0101)
winds up at OT Exterior very nicely when one does OT IV.
If you do OT IV and he's still in his head, all is not lost,
you have other actions you can take. Clusters, Prep-Checks,
failed to exteriorise directions.
OT V and VI are designed for someone already exterior. If a
person doesn't go exterior after OT IV Rundown you set him up
for
V by then seeing he jolly well does go exterior before going
on to
V.

OT IV SOLO
The end phenomenon of OT IV is "Certainty of Self as a
Being". The thing that would make a Being uncertain is the
possibility of future implants. OT iv Solo is designed to
"proof
up a Being" against any possibility of being re-implanted now
that
he/she has finished running implants with the completion of OT
The main idea on OT IV Solo is to mock-up (create) each line
of the Cle aring Course (7's, The Basic End Words, The
Confusion
GPM, Objects-Hollow, Objects-Solid) with all the perceptics,
force, impact, and unconsciousness of the original implant (as
much as you are able). When the line is mocked up (created or
recreated), then unmock it, cease creating it, and blow the
charge
you have recreated or mocked up. Do this repetitively with
each
line of the Clearing Course (including lights) to a floating
needle on each line. Continue until you feel totally free
with
and at cause over this implant sequence; (you may or may not
need
to complete all 5 parts). Do it until you can freely and
easily
mock-up and blow this implant and can confront implants.
Lastly, scan out all of your auditing early to late adding up
all the hours in session as you go along.

OT V
CAUSE OVER MEST
Gain Freedom from Fixated
Introversion into MEST
For eons, man has speculated and guessed about the nature of
the
Physical Universe. There have been many opinions and much
discussion. Even the modern physicist, with his many names
and
labels, is still in the dark when it comes to how it got here
and
why. Before Scientology, the exact truth about the MEST
Universe
was lost, and the way out of the trap unknown. Lies and
misinformation had taken the place of the truth.
In 1967, L. Ron Hubbard released Section V of the Operating
Thetan
Course, the most powerful level released up to that time. On
OT V
you learn the truth about the Physical Universe, not the laws
of
physical scientists, but the basic considerations about
Matter,
Energy, Space and Time.
The tremendous power that this universe -seems to have over
thetans
resulting in entrapment, degradation and death, is traced to
its
(0105)
source. As you exteriorize from the Physical Universe at
Section
V. you discover exactly what MEST is, and become free of its
laws.
At OT V, a Being is re-familiarized as a thetan exterior with
the
Physical Universe. OT drills are done to remarkably increase
a
Being's ability to communicate with his environment. He is
now
able to do so, totally free of the mind and body, and free
from a
fixated introversion into MEST.
Solo auditing on this level serves as an introduction to the
rehabilitation of his total abilities as a thetan. He learns
to
-use his new abilities Is a thetan with wisdom and judgment.
OT V
Pre OT is to lie down in a comfortable position with eyes
shut.
(1) Spot a spot in the room.
(2) Spot a spot in your body.
Alternate 1 and 2 until commands are flat then,
(3) Spot two spots in your body.
(4) Spot two spots outside.
Alternate 3 and 4 until flat then,
(0106)
(5) Spot a spot outside.
(6) Spot a spot on the sun.
(Notice the distance between.)
(7) Spot two spots outside.
(8) Spot two spots on the sun.
(Notice what happens.)
The pre OT may exteriorize during these drills but doesn't
necessarily have to.
While still inside with eyes shut in a comfortable position
the
pre-OT is to follow the following commands and write down any
major cognitions.
(9) Spot an object in the-room.
(10) Spot an object outside.
(11) Locate a moving object.
(12) Locate a spot in your body.
(13) Spot a motion.
(14) Locate a space.
(15) Spot a Thetan.
Continue the above steps until major cognition, very good
(0107)
indicators or exteriorization occurs.
The following steps are done outside. The pre OT takes a
paper
and pencil with him to take notes.
1. The pre-OT is to put his attention on an object that is
ahead
of him like a parked car, lamp post, etc. and walk towards it
noticing the distance between him and it. He is to continue
to do
this until cognition.
2. Next the pre-OT is to again pick out an object ahead of
him
and wrap in energy beam around it and himself and pull himself
toward the object with shortening of the beam.
Notice what happens.
3. Locate an object, draw energy from it into you. Repeat at
least ten times.
Note any cognitions.
4. Locate an object as above and walk toward it. Notice what

(2) Major cognition
(3) Regained ability.
(Preferably all three together as the ideal end. End
Phenomena.)
Be Three feet in back of your head. Whatever you are looking
at,
copy it a dozen times, put it into you. Find the two back
corners
of the room and hold onto them without thinking for two
minutes.
Find two corners of the planet Earth, hold onto them for two
minutes.
Find a place where you are not.
Spot three spots in your body.
Spot three spots in the room.
Be in the following places:
The room, the sky, the moon, the sun.
Locate an animal .. postulate him moving from one spot to
another.
Observe him doing this.
(0110)
Find a walking man ... postulate his walking faster. Do this
with
20 people.
Find a walking person .. postulate that he will stop, then
continue walking. Do this 20 times.
Find a person in a distant land. Notice the time of day.
Notice
the terrain. Notice the general environment. Smell the air.
Locate a thought that is his. Locate a thought that is yours.
Continue until flat.
'Notice differences between you and your body.
Create in your body a feeling of calmness; create in your
body
sexual desire and turn it off. Continue that step until you
feel
you have control over the sexual drives. Create in the body a
feeling of pain. Create in the body a feeling of serenity.
Do
the above until flat. Create in the body a feeling of hunger
and
turn it off. Continue this step until you are in control of
hunger drives.
The end result of these particular drills is the regained
ability
to control the body and its sensations.
Now: Postulate Anger, boredom, grief, cheerfulness and
serenity -
-- in that order. This is continued until you are sure that
you
can create any emotion.
(0111)
Finally, exteriorized visit a friend who lives in another
state.
Greet him and flow affinity to him. Ask him to communicate to
you
by letter.

MOTIONS FOR RECONSIDERATION AND F.R.CIV.P. RULE 60
RELIEF.
DEFENDANTS GEERTZ AND PIS EXPECT TO FILE THEIR JOINT
MOTION BY
MONDAY, APRIL S. 1993. THIS DELAY IS OCCASIONED BY FISHMAN,
GEERTZ
AND GEERTZ'S COUNSEL GRAHM E. BERRY, BEING ENGAGED FROM
MARCH 15 TO
APPROXIMATELY MARCH26 IN VARIOUS DEPOSITIONS, FROM DAY
TO DAY, IN
FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA, INCLUDING THE DEPOSITIONS OF
DR. GEERTZ
AND MR. FISHMAN.
This motion will be made, inter alia, on the following
grounds:
A. AS TO DEFENDANT FISHMAN:
Prior to the March 22, 1993 hearing on his motion for
change of
venue:
1. Mr. Fishman mistakenly thought that IRS
officials,
(Messrs. Tronscoso and Kroggel) from Tampa, Florida
could be
compelled to attend the trial of this matter in Miami,
Florida and
that they could be compelled to testify about ongoing
government
investigations;
2. Mr. Fishman mistakenly thought that Detective Angelo
could
be compelled to attend trial in Miami, give testimony
about an
ongoing police investigation and Mr. Fishman also did
not realize
that statements by Detective Angelo regarding what
Fishman told
Detective Angelo about Scientology would be hearsay;
3. With regard to "certain hostile witnesses who are
staff
(0135)
members of the Church of Scientology":
(a) Mr. Fishman had not realized that these persons would
have to be subpoenaed for depositions, deposed, subpoenaed for
trial
and paid witness fees, all at an impossible expense to
himself;
(b) Mr. Fishman had inadvertently forgotten that these
witnesses would have been subjected to Scientology's TR-L
(training
routine-lying) , witness training program ("hatting the
witness") and
security procedures - all to subvert the truth and so render
their
testimony futile to the standpoint of Mr Fishman's defense;
4. Mr. Fishman had mistakenly and inadvertently failed
to
realize that the witnesses he really needs in this case are
largely
ex-Scientologists -- most of whom are more readily
available to
testify at trial in Los Angeles;
5. Fishman had mistakenly filed his motion for change
of
venue after reviewing his file and noticing that defendant
Geertz
once had filed the same motion, and without knowing that
defendant
Geertz had subsequently made a determination that the
case was
better venued in Los Angeles for an assortment of different
reasons.
6. Mr. Fishman had mistakenly and inadvertently failed
to
consider the logistical problems he faced in trying his
case in
Miami without the support services of Lewis, D'Amato,
Brisbois &
Bisgaard being available with regard to the dozens of
boxes of
documents that will be introduced into evidence in his case.
7. Mr. Fishman had not received Lewis, D'Amato's offers
to:
(a) provide him with law library, support and office
services during the trial in Los Angeles;
(b) provide him with accommodations, air transportation
and a per them for food costs during trial in Los Angeles and
to the
(0136)
extent plaintiff Scientology failed to do so;
(c) pay for the travel and accommodation of Marjorie
Wakefield to testify at trial in Los Angeles;
(d) take videotaped depositions of so many of the so-
called "Scientology hostile witnesses" in Fort Lauderdale and
Miami
who could be subpoenad for deposition;
(e) use their best efforts to find Mr. Fishman a pro bono
trial counsel for a trial in Los Angeles;
(f) file a motion for summary judgment in Los Angeles, in
which Mr. Fishman would join; and
(g) transport his over 50 boxes of evidence to Los
Angeles and store it for him there pending trial and for six
months
thereafter.
8. Mr. Fishman had not developed the close
working
relationship he now has with Graham E. Berry of Lewis D'Amato
as a
result of the Steven Fishman, Jack Fishman, Jamie Lee Nuryev,
Keith
Nosetta and Dr. Geertz depositions now being conducted
in Fort
Lauderdale, Florida.
9. Mr. Fishman had not realized that the granting of
his
motion for change of venue may adversely affect Dr.
Geertz's
representation by the Lewis D'Amato firm and threaten the
informal
assistance now being received by him from the Lewis,
D'Amato firm
including but not limited to receiving copies of all
deposition
transcripts, discovery propounded and received that he
had not
hitherto been able to afford himself and that plaintiff
had been
unwilling to provide him.
(0137)
B. AS TO DEFENDANT GEERTZ:
10. The defense of defendant Dr. Geertz was "stayed" by
his
bankruptcy petition until only days before the February
22, 1993
hearing on Fishman's motions. [Scientology has since
moved to
reconsider the bankruptcy court's exemption of Dr.
Geertz from
personal liability when it partially lifted the stay.)
11. Mark Augustine was originally responsible for
handling
this matter on behalf of Lewis, D'Amato. During the pendency
of the
automatic stay Mark Augustine resigned from the Lewis
D'Amato firm
and was replaced on this matter by Graham Berry.
12. Only hours after the February 22, 1993 continuance
of
Fishman's motion, and this court orders that Fishman
submit
declarations as to the change of venue, Graham Berry was
admitted to
Cedar Sinai Hospital on an emergency basis.
During his
hospitalization and recuperation, Mr. Fishman served a new
motion
for change of venue (by Federal Express and not first class
mail on
Lewis, D'Amato). Due to either mistake or inadvertence,
either
Judith Tishkoff, Esq. or her paralegal, failed to ensure that
Graham
Berry saw the new motion and failed to ensure that the date
for new
opposition papers was properly calendared. Accordingly,
at the
March 22, 1993 hearing on Fishman's motion for change of
venue,
Graham Berry was not aware that Mr. Fishman had filed new
motion
papers now supported by the declaration the court had
previously
ordered.
13. Defendant Geertz selected the Lewis, D'Amato law firm
as
his counsel partly because of its considerable
experience in
handling Scientology litigation. Over $100,000 has been
expended on
this defense to date. Transfer of the case to Florida
would mean
(0138)
either:
(a) the appointment of replacement counsel at enormous
cost
and expense and the loss of Lewis, D'Amato's general expertise
and
acquired knowledge in this case, or
(b) the appointment of unnecessarily expensive and
duplicative
Miami co-counsel.
14. If defendant Geertz's counsel (Lewis, D'Amato) has to
try
this case in Miami instead of Los Angeles:
(a) over 80 boxes of documents in this case will have to
be
transported and accommodated in Miami;
(b) selected boxes of documents from over 200 boxes of
documents acquired from other Scientology cases will have
to be
transported and accommodated in Miami;
(c) document handling and logistical support services
would
have to be specially hired in Miami;
(d) The cost of trying this case will vastly exceed
the
$300,000 already projected because of the travel and
accommodation
costs that will be incurred by the attorneys and staff in
contrast
to merely transporting and accommodating Messrs. Fishman,
Geertz and
certain witnesses in Los Angeles.
C. PLAINTIFF CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY INTERNATIONAL
As to plaintiff Church of Scientology International, it
would
be argued that it opposed Fishman's motion for change of
venue now
sought to be set aside.

OT VIII
HCO BULLETIN OF 1 OCTOBER 1969
SECRET
WHY THETANS MOCK-UP
This question has been the most plaguing one in Dianetics and
Scientology.
The ONLY way a thetan ever gets in trouble, the ONLY way he
can
get trapped or become part of a cluster is by mocking-up and
inaking pictures of bad experiences.
And why record all bad experiences? This too is not good
sense.
one can explain it by a yearning for eventi by havingness and
other ways, but these do not factually lead to a total
solution.
The real reason stems from a characteristic of a thetan. He
never
totally gives up.
There is, seemingly, a streak of resistance or resentment that
makes a thetan wish to persist in the same place. If he
cannot,
(0124)
he will do so covertly.
All power comes from the ability to occupy a point. The base
that
separates two terminals must be firm or there will be no
exchange
of energy.
The effort to weaken a thetan is to make him relinquish his
point
In space. covertly or overtly a thetan seeks to assert his
position in space.
If he cannot do so overtly he does so covertly.
When a thetan is moved unwillingly from a point or position,
he
even then refuses to give up that point, but MOCKS IT UP. He
also
mocks up the events of his departure as a part of the action
of
mocking up the point he is leaving. This, unwittingly, gives
him
a picture, an engram.
Now let us see if this theory holds true in practice.
A. Just ahead of any engram there must be an effort to
retain a position and there must be a point or location
being mocked up.
This is true. You can blow an engram without running it
by spotting its first point in space and time. In a
secondary, "Where did you first hear of the loss" is a
vital question.
(0125)
B. In a Contact Assist getting a person to touch again the
point where he was hurt with what was hurt will blow the
engram.
C. Getting a person to locate areas (locations) that are not
safe produces blows of engrams without running them.
D. Exact and accurate dating sometimes blows an engram.
Those times when it does not, it should blow when the
location is exactly spotted.
E. Implants and traps were done mainly to keep thetans out
of an area. The thetan, resenting and resisting mocks up
the place anyway and so implants himself.
_____________________________
A thetan too easily substitutes a mock-up for a point in the
real
universe.
one could also say that a thetan, by mocking up, warns himself
against certain points in space or areas in the Physical
Universe.
Anxiety is solely not being able to be in certain places and
not
where one is either.
making people leave is the most unpopular action unless one
also
frees them to be anywhere.
Transferring people is a degrading thing to do to them.
(0126)
Jail denies a thetan all spaces except where he has been
placed
and note that thetans are made very miserable in Jail.
Jailing is
a sure way to confirm criminals and also to make them crazy as
well.
Any thetan, stuck in an engram, is asserting the effort to be
at
the point where he was hit at the beginning of that engram.
An engram therefore is a refusal to leave a place at which
force
was exerted to drive one away.
Reversely, one can refuse to be held at a place where one does
not
wish to bt, but this is a negation of a place, a not-is of it
and
its time.
Power of choice over where one is and where one is not is thus
a
key to engrams.
Finally - a thetan mocks up because he covertly refuses to
abandon
a location under duress and not-ises the place where he does
not
wish to be but must.
Using these facts one can blow engrams without running them.
Some sample questions:
What point (location) is unsafe?
(0127)
What location could you have held absolutely?
Where did you first get an intimation of danger?
What place would you rather not be in?
What effort would it take to hold (that) (a) locatation?
Working with this you will see a door open to a higher level
than
Dianetic R3R. But realize that it is only for a high level
thetan.
This is the road to returned personal power in the Physical
Universe.

STUDENT BRIEFING
By the time you read this I will no longer be occupying the
body
and identity
that you have known as Ron. That identity continues to live
in the
hearts and
minds of many as well as in on-Source tech and admin centers
around
the planet,
and will inspire for years to come Scientologists and lovers
of truth
every-where.
What follows is a story that has been withheld, for reasons
which
will soon be
obvious, until such time as there were enough OTs that
something
could be done
about it. That time Is now. It is not a nice or a pretty
story.
but I trust
that having arrived on the OT VIII Course you are ready to
hear
it. You have
undoubtedly heard pieces of data over the years that hinted at
the
greater
untold reality of my mission here on Earth. but the story was
never
written,
nor spoken. in its entirety due to security problems that have
unfortunately
always plagued the organization. It is only now that I feel
it
safe to release
the information, although the time is rapidly approaching when
I
will have no
choice in the matter, the hour draws that near.
I an not going to delve too deeply into specifics as people
have a
tendency to
bog themselves down in significance. which would only serve to
delay the
immediacy of the task at hand. Therefore I will be brief.
Some eighty-odd million years ago Earth time (it actually
dates at
78,395,042
but dates are & bit superfluous with this material) plans were
drawn by a
group outside the MEST universe for the eventual takeover of a
good
portion of
this universe. Not a particularly large nor Imaginative crew,
their exterior
perspective. however. gives them considerable advantage over
tho
time-bound
beings of the MEST universe. Borrowing from earlier
operations
such as
Helotrobus. they conceived an ongoing implant. some portions
of
which have been
fairly faithfully rendered in parts of the Bible. This
implant,
laid in by
carefully controlled genetic mutation at Incident Two of OT
Ill and
periodically reinforced by controlled historic events since
then,
makes it
effectively impossible for beings on the more heavily affected
planets such as
Earth to become free. It causes progressive genetic
"evolution"
that gives the
subject population greater and greater susceptibility to the
telepathic
impingement and direction of the controllers. In its final
stage the
progression becomes almost geometric, and it is this final
stage
that we are
rapidly approaching.
(0129)
Another aspect of this GE-line implant is that the body
becomes
in effect a
sort of thats trap that kicks in heavily on the being should
he
attempt to
expand his horizons beyond that of pure physical universe
reality. There can
be temporary key-outs which we have all experienced in
varying
degrees. but
until this area is handled it can honestly be said that there
is
no hope for
continued expansion. The good news is that once this is
run
out. expansion
becomes rather effortless and almost automatic.
No doubt you are familiar with the Revelations section of the
Bible where
various events are predicted. Also mentioned Is a brief
period of
time in
which an arch-enemy of Christ. reforred to as the
anti-Christ,
will reign and
his opinions will have sway. All this makes for very
fantastic, entertaining
reading but there is truth in it. This anti-Christ
represents
the forces of
Lucifer (literally, the "light bearers" or "light bringer"),
Lucifer being a
mythical representation of the forces of enlightenment, the
Galactic
Confederacy. My mission could be said to fulfill the
Biblical
promise
represented by this brief anti-Christ period. During this
period there is a
fleeting opportunity for the whole scenario to be.
effectively
derailed. which
would make it impossible for the mass Marcabian landing
(Second Coming) to take
place. The Second Coming is designed, among other things,
to
trigger a rapid
series of destructive events.
With the exception of the original Buddhism, virtually all
religions of any
consequence on this planet, mono- and pantheistic alike.
have
been instruments
to speed the progress of this "evolution of consciousness"
and
bring about the
eventual enslavement of mankind. As you know, Siddhartha
Gautama never claimed
to be anything more than a man. Having caught on to this
operation, he
postulated his own return as Metteyya, part of which prophecy
will have been
fulfilled upon the passing of L. Ron Hubbard.
For those of you whose Christian toes I may have stepped on.

me take the
opportunity to disabuse you of some lovely myths. For
instance, the historic
Jesus was not nearly the sainted figure has been made out to
be. In addition
to being a lover of young boys and men. he was given to
uncontrollable bursts of
temper and hatred that belied the general message of love,
understanding and
other typical Marcab PR. You have only to look at the
history
his teachings
inspired to see where it all inevitably leads. It Is
historic
fact and yet man
still clings to the ideal. so deep and insidious is the
biologic implanting.
It Is a good joke that the Calactic Confederacy is associated
with the Serpent
in the Garden, the beast and other emissaries of the "Prince
of
Darkness". Yet
in certain passages and esoteric interpretations of the Bible
(much of which
has been taken out and effectively suppressed for centuries)
as
well as the
Cabbalah, the truth reveals itself quite nicely for the clever
and the
ungullible.
So it really is a race against time and one that we happen to
be
losing at the
moment, as the implant drama inexorably plays itself out in
spite
of the
breakneck pace I've managed to keep up these last thirty-five
years.
I had an inkling, but only that, of the insidiousness of this
material as far
back as 1945. Later. in charcteristic over-optimism, I
thought that R6 would
be the end of it. But that was followed by NOTs and the
Purification Rundown
and still the string continued to unwind with the ball at the
end of it just
out of sight. It makes ons wonder about such things as fate
and destiny, such
(0130)
was the resolve with which I managed to cling to that string.
not
often knowing
how close I was to falling into the abyss myself. but
destiny
it merely the
rationalization of feeble minds. Things don't just happen,
they are caused.
And causative beings can undo the plans of madmen and
would-be
enslavers, no
matter how long those plans may have been in the making.
I will soon leave this world only to return and complete my
mission with
another Identity. Although I long to stretch my arms back
in
repose on some
distant star in some distant galaxy. It appears that is one
dream that will
have to wait. But my return depends on people like you
doing
these materials
thoroughly and completely so that there will be a
genetically
uncontaminated
body for me to pick up and resume where I left off. A body
free of religious
mania, right/wrong dichotomy and synthetic karma. The job
ahead is far too
tough to even contemplate doing with your standard -- courtesy
of
certain
other-dimensional players and their Marcab pieces, many of
whom
are right here
In the general populace -- genetically altered body.
Without the biogenetic meddling of those who stand outside
time
(who cannot yet
directly influence our world and must work through others) the
dwindling spiral
is not nearly as automatic and self-perpetuating as it
appears. There are
regions even in isolated parts of the Milky Way where poets
are
free to poet
and magicians can paint reality with their magic wands and
exteriorize without
body kickback. But these areas unfortunately are fewer and
fewer.
I will return not as a religious leader but a political one.
That happens to
be the requisite beingness for the task at hand. I will not
be
known to most
of you, my activities misunderstood by many, yet along with
your
constant
effort in the theta band I will effectively postpone and then
halt
a series of
events designed to make happy slaves of us all.
So there you have it. The secret that I have kept close to my
chest all these
years. Now you too are part of this secret and I no longer
have to shoulder
the burden alone or live with the possibility of body death
before
all the data
could be released. And with this briefing I entrust to each
of
you the
responsibility for this material until such time as I an able
to return. For
we have no help from any other quarter in this matter. The
handful of secret
societies throughout history that have caught on to this game
have long since
fallen by the wayside or been taken over and become
instruments of
the very
menace they were set up to combat.
The rundown is long and can be arduous, but it must be done
thoroughly if there
is to be any effect not only on the body of the pre-OT but the
body of his or
her progeny as wall. There is some danger, but with OT VII
thoroughly complete
It is not nearly so great as the danger witnessed by assorted
unfortunates who
happened to stumble into this area in their sleep or in
moments
of reverie or
anaten, experiencing an hitherto mysterious phenomenon known
as "spontaneous
combustion".
CAUTION: DO NOT BE PTS WHILE TRAVERSING THIS THIRD AND FINAL
WALL
OF FIRE
But the area is well charted. the rundown many years in secret
development, and
by the time you read this undoubtedly completed on myself.
The
wins awaiting
you are like none that you have ever experienced, not just for
you. but for
your children. your children's children and the whole of
mankind,
if we
succeed. And we will. If we had time we should pity the many
poor souls, from
(0131)
1950 to PT, who chose such an exactly inopportune moment to
drop
off the road
to truth and disconnect from reality, the full burst and glory
of OT
practically within their grasp. But we haven't the time to
"wax
philosophic"
or ponder might have beens.
The rundown follows. Again I say, do it thoroughly and
completely, for it is
your ticket to the stars. And beyond!
