Flourish and Prosper? Andres Rodriguez has been in the Sea Org forever. What does he know about flourishing and prospering? It's time for spiritual freedom... And they have a "completion" -- though not an OT level. No doubt she got a bunch of sec checking. The Chan Man is Back.... Not sure he ever went anywhere. You gotta hear his take on "solvent particles" -- it's "Part 2." so tough if you missed part 1. Is this a Chemistry lesson? Or perhaps he is teaching people how to open a cleaning business? The Caped Crusader Dr. … [Read more...]

Thanks to everyone who submits these each week... Financial Security Workshop The irony is that the place will be swarming with more Regges than participants. The last place anyone should go for financial security is into any scientology building. Let alone Big Blue where LA Org, ASHO and AOLA Regges will be hovering. Not to mention IAS, WISE, ABLE, CCHR, WTH etc etc Not much hype The most important beings in the universe don't get the hype that the dudes in the hazmat suits spraying Defcon 9 get. Not even a video! Two water bottles That's the best … [Read more...]
Scientology Running In Circles. Literally
The "Cause Resurgence" Rundown is one of the greatest boondoggles scientology has ever foisted off as a "standard tech" "religious" service. The Running Program, as it was originally called, was used to punish crew at Golden Era who were, in the estimation of Miscavige, performing poorly. "Run around a pole until you get your shit together." The first person to do it was David Mayo, when he had been declared a terrible squirrel. Hubbard ordered him to run around a tree at Gold "until he wore a trench in the ground". He did so for weeks on end until he was physically spent. He escaped … [Read more...]
This is the Freewinds — It’s Always About the Money
What the Freewinds has been reduced to... Hawking virtual seminars with AMAZING (all caps) "new speakers". Though there is not a single new speaker among them? And of course, they are all offering "business" expansion seminars -- they disguise their "learn how to make money" pitches as "expansion." Some talk about "prosperity" and one even explains that you can become the "Master of All Universes." Everything these guys is selling is designed to make it possible for you to pay for scientology. It's expensive. Especially when you get to the highest levels. People need hundreds of … [Read more...]
Let’s Go Virtual OT!
The question you have to ask after reading this breathless promo -- why would anyone pay to go to the Freewinds when you can apparently "Go OT" virtually? The second question -- is there any difference between an OT and a virtual OT? Aren't all OT's "virtual" anyway as the state is entirely subjective -- nobody has ever objectively proven that an OT exists. Hubbard's explanation for that was "we don't do parlor tricks." The only time anyone supposedly set out to verify any OT abilities was Ingo Swann and Hal Puthoff trying to turn it into an intelligence tool for the CIA. Nothing ever came … [Read more...]

That Cristian Vargas sure gets around... He seems to be the only person organizing events these days? Big news From a "former" investigative reporter and a retired Army officer. I am sure they are experts. Just as sure there will be a lot of correlation without causation involved in this (almost by definition you have to be mentally ill to engage in a mass shooting -- how come scientology hasn't yet "taken over the field" on mental healing and handled this problem? Are they not just as responsible as "the psychs" who they claim know nothing but they have ALL the … [Read more...]
