By our regular guest contributor Terra Cognita. Scientology and The Bank One of L. Ron Hubbard’s more intriguing —some would say revolutionary—concepts was compartmentalizing the mind into two separate units: the analytical; and the reactive. He defined the reactive mind as, “a portion of a person’s mind which works on a totally stimulus-response basis, which is not under his volitional control, and which exerts force and power of command over his awareness, purposes, thoughts, body and actions. Stored in the reactive mind are engrams, and here we find the single source of aberrations and … [Read more...]

Reverend Freddie Firing Em Up in the Fatherland Raise your havingness so you can give your money to me. Why does anyone care what he has to say about Havingness? It's a Celebration Until the regges greet you at the door.. Preventing the world from being destroyed Now THAT'S a Success Story! Totally vague and totally meaningless. But eh, let's publish it anyway like it's really good! Not So Mighty My Mammy The letter B is completed! 2 down only 24 to go... Big turnout This is the org LRH can count on. And … [Read more...]
Seriously? A 10 Year Old Purif Completion…
This was sent to me by a Special Correspondent. OMG. What is a mother doing putting a 10 year old through this program? Paying good money to have her engage in something that is at best completely useless and at worst physically harmful (See my earlier post Danger of Niacin). Apparently this woman understands how stressful and physically debilitating the Purification program can be as in her proud "announcement" of the fact that her daughter didn't even complain about 5000mg of naicin and handfuls of vitamins she had to swallow daily. I guess this is another example of someone saved … [Read more...]
The Real State Of Ideal Orgs
We have seen these crowing posters from Tampa before. But I haven't noticed this statement previously: We were the First and only Org on the planet to have over 60 Clears and OTs on staff. Stop to think about this statement for a minute. Only ONE org (which is both a Day and Foundation as they mention in 5 above) has 60 Clears and above on staff. How is it that this could be? Either all of these "ideal" and "St Hill Size" orgs have less than 60 staff, or these orgs that give free training and auditing to their staff in this "Golden Age" of "super-fast" tech are NOT giving any auditing … [Read more...]
Tampa Ideal Hype
The latest promotional items from Tampa org - this is "ideal hype" because everything Tampa does is "ideal." They are on an all out over the ramparts effort to recruit staff - perhaps because they are losing so many. And then this 6 pager... This tells you everything you need to know. Even the Dir Reg cannot survive on staff pay alone -- she has to have a "Supportive husband who runs a successful, expanding business" (David Tapia runs an Allstate Insurance agency in downtown Clearwater...) This is the first pilot org. The first ideal org. The first ideal SH Size org … [Read more...]

HUGE News! But then again, has there EVER been a scientology event that is not huge, epic, monumental blah blah blah Of course, the huge news is: a) we need your money now and b) you need to get busy on our backlogged CF. Speaking of CF Tampa is still working on theirs. And they are taking things to "light speed" -- everything except their filing backlog I guess. That is going at "snail's pace." Emptiness But they tried to make it look like there are people by having a CGI image of an image of people running through the org... What … [Read more...]

Still crazy after all these years SO #1 letters as inspiration? Even in this day and age? Wow... Tampa Org is "out of PT" Can you imagine the model ideal SH size org is not in PT and needs to do the SRD? Says a lot for the state of the non-model, non-ideal, non-SH sized orgs everywhere else. Our birthday gift: Planetary Dissemination a reality! Yessirreee... Does this person REALLY think that everyone hasn't yet figured out that this whole set up is being paid for by Miscavige as a pet-project boondoggle to use up some of that cash he has been … [Read more...]
Another Tampa Ideal Org Milestone
More proof of just how epic the milestone accomplishments are in the shrinking world of scientology. Applying standard admin tech to the letter, 13 years after being declared "ideal" and 10 years on from their first "SH Size" declaration, Tampa has been working on their backlogged CF for months and months. Perhaps a year. It has been heavily promoted and pushed as a top priority for this model org (how it could be "model" when they promote their "squirrel admin" is a question for another day). For some reason there is always a great deal of attention paid to "getting CF in PT" as … [Read more...]
Cheapo Rates
Boy, here is some really good news from Tampa model ideal SH size org. For the paltry sum of $13,750 you can CO-AUDIT your way to Clear (you will also need the new GOAT CCRD after that and they won't give it to you for free, but you will sort of be clear, at least as clear as you can be without having someone else verify you are not clear so you can be sold some more stuff). But Thomas, don't you realize NOBODY is ever "in your area." Nobody lives in that area. It's tourists and people from Tampa eating out at night. Maybe a few people pass within 1/2 mile on their way to Ikea. And if … [Read more...]
Another Tampa Faux Pas
These guys keep putting out the "facts" to disprove the lies being told by David "Let Him Die" Miscavige about "massive international expansion." Remember, this is the "model" ideal org (at least until the "model" became a Sea Org staffed org in LA, which is no model for anything). And it has been an "ideal org" longer than any other org on earth. And moved from their original "model ideal" org to a new building to "accommodate their expansion." First, and a side note to the real issue, but nevertheless worth mentioning. How does a "model ideal org" that has been "ideal" for 12 YEARS h … [Read more...]
