Refund and Reparation

I would say, offhand, that it would be impossible to do very much for a psychotic without getting him to handle solid objects. I real – just impossible. I mean, we might read a lot of fancy things, we might think of a lot of fancy things, and so forth, but unless we actually did get him in contact, good thorough communication with a solid object, we would have left him in the position where he had to remain connected with a psychotic terminal. Some energy mass, some bank or another that has swept in on him or he's using as an old game. You know, psychosis is quite a game itself There is nothing like an eccentric behavior to command a great deal of scurry on the part of the environment.

We have this boy Hutson out here, psychosis is just a game to this boy. It's revenge. His mother, a Christian Scientist, laid into him on the subject of masturbation and invented all kinds of reasons why and had herself tell him, had other people tell him very convincingly, that if he continued with this practice that he would go insane. Now, it isn't then that masturbation would make anybody insane, but you could certainly convince somebody, couldn't you, who could then pick this up as a terminal exchange and in lack of any other game make a game out of craziness. You see? He could make a game out of this. How constrict and restrain.

Now, this boy started to come out of the soup the moment we started to run 8-C on him, just keeping you on a running report on an interesting preclear in the vicinity, started to run 8-C on him. By the way, his first contacts with the objects were like this. And then he would suddenly go over to something and grab hold of it and shake it in a rage. Then he'd relapse and would miss several auditing commands, just wouldn't do any of them, and then go like that, see? And then get mad at some other object. Then he started to come right on up the scale. You understand what he wouldn't do? He won't take his  attention off of that mass which is generating energy. See? He won't take his attention off of that mass until he's got something solid he can put his attention on, demonstrating another terminal. This psychotic terminal over here is a much better terminal than no terminal. And the solid object is the only thing it could
supplant.

In this article, we argue that Scientology’s founder, L. Ron Hubbard, likely presented a personality disorder known as malignant narcissism, and then we establish that this disorder probably contributed to his creation of organizational policies against perceived enemies that reflected his narcissistic rage. We illustrate our argument by discussing Hubbard’s creation of an internal Scientology organization called the Guardian’s Office, which carried out a sustained and covert attack against a Scientology critic, Paulette Cooper. This attack, and the Scientology policies that Hubbard created to ‘handle’ critics like her, demonstrate how Hubbard translated narcissistic rage into organizational policies that loyal members enacted on his behalf. By using psychological insights about the leader’s personality, and then showing how that personality translated into socially deviant and sometimes criminal policies and actions by his organization, we hope to encourage criminologists to examine other groups by applying similar theories.

Ron, who was known to the neighbourhood kids as 'brick' because of his hair, would later claim that while still at kindergarten he used the 'lumberjack fighting' he had learned from his grandfather to deal with a gang of bullies who were terrorizing children on their way to and from the school. But one of Ron's closest childhood friends, Andrew Richardson, has no recollection of him protecting local children from bullies. 'He never protected nobody,' said Richardson. 'It was all bullshit. Old Hubbard was the greatest con artist who ever lived.'

If you have a patient who is getting blank-outs during a certain period, a patient who is sure somehow that he has had homosexual relationships with somebody but can’t tell you when or where, you start looking into hypnotism.

You may not find it, because one of the chief weapons of the pervert is hypnotism. He uses hypnotism quite freely. I have found many incidents of hypnotism used for perversion.

Even worse than that, you very often find that by contagion of aberration the person will go out and dramatize the engram without knowing it ever happened to him. He merely thinks, “Well, that’s something to do,” so he is liable to hypnotize somebody else.

The standard pervert session of hypnotism seems to wind up, “Now, if you told anybody that this had happened, they would never believe you!” Or if it is done to a young boy, “Your mother and father would of course drive you from your home if they knew about this. If you told them anything that had happened here, they would not believe you. In fact you can’t believe it yourself. You don’t think anything has happened here at all.”

That perversion sequence may contain such a thing as “You are a woman,” or if a woman is using it, “You are a man,” and so on. It will be a hard engram to tackle in that it will be completely out of view.

You may find this once in a hundred cases, although the percentage to date has been about one out of 95 cases, which is about one percent. This is only a series of about 180 so it is not a good statistic, merely a guess.

None of these remarks are leveled at hypnotists at all; they are leveled exclusively at a practice which you will find in the society.

Hypnotism may still have enormous therapeutic or anesthetic value. In addition to that it is an excellent research tool in Dianetics. But it is not something with which you would toy idly. It has real horsepower in it.

You will discover hypnotic therapy or deep analysis in quite a few patients who have undergone psychoanalysis. Deep analysis is a practice of discovering hidden data and delivering unto the patient insight regarding that data.
