Superpower Step One – The Ethics Repair List
This was submitted by one of our Special Correspondents -- Roy McGregor. I felt it worthy of its own post rather than just being a comment. I do believe there is another element not really covered here that is going to make this fail. People are conditioned how to think in the church. They KNOW what they can and cannot say. Even in session. It is why you do not find people coming up with David Miscavige or Julian Schwartz or Charmaine Roger as their PTS Items. Factually, being "in session" within the church of Scientology is impossible these days. There are too many taboos. And thus c … [Read more...]
Superpower — The Facts
A write up by Dan Koon about Super Power has just appeared on Operation Clambake (see here). Because I have had so much to say about the subject of its "imminent" release, I am republishing Dan's write up here in full (though if you want the attachments referenced, go to Clambake, I have not attached them or linked to them here). If there is one person who knows the story of Super Power -- what it contains and what it is supposed to accomplish -- it is Dan Koon. His recollections may help distinguish the hype from reality and help make clear just what a boondoggle the entire Super Power … [Read more...]
GAG II
This is a collection of rumors, "news" and "pitches" emanating from Flag.... They are trying to sell GAG II HARD. Also throwing in some "Super Power" and even a mention of OT IX to persuade the high rollers to get busy redoing their Basics, Purif and Objectives. First off, a pitch to attend Graduation. We are starting a competition for how many euphemisms can be thought up to announce His presence at Graduation. This has a few new ones: "you know who" and "the top" and my personal favorite "our main speaker." From: CaryBG@aol.comTo: carybg@aol.comSent: 7/5/2013 3:52:44 P.M. East … [Read more...]
Voldemort Update 5 July Fireworks Edition
Here is the news from last night's Graduation where He once again addressed his adoring fans. Of course, a lot of this could charitably be termed hype -- some is just outright lies. But it was a night of spectacle and verbal fireworks befitting the celebration of Independence Day. Though He announced "every org has their quota of trainees" he is apparently not completely clued in and has been taken off the Hawaii recruitment mailing list. Fasten your seatbelts, and prepare yourselves for this week's ride down the rabbit hole. Sarcastic comments by me in square brackets: - There is a … [Read more...]
The Hype Is Going Into Hyperdrive!
The PR machine has lifted off, straight up and vertical, in a historic display of amazing adjectives and state-of-the-art hyperbole that is 5 times the level experienced since the Wake Up Call. Then again, and all things previously mentioned pulled together into a cohesive whole, if you thought that was impressive, it was just the launching pad for a planetary assault of verbiage that dwarfs all else that has come before and when I say you cannot imagine the glories of PR puffery that are about to be unleashed I am not talking metaphorically. From: Clive Rabey - D … [Read more...]
What Scientology Could Be
One of our Special Correspondents sent this in and I felt it worthy of a separate post. I am interested in your comments. I don't agree with some of the sentiments expressed here but I believe it is food for thought and perhaps from the responses we might gain some insight into what is considered valuable, important or unwanted. Fire away! Mike A Vision of What Scientology Could Be... A vital part of evaluating any situation, good or bad, is to envision the Ideal Scene for that activity. How this is done is laid out in detail in Data Series 12, HCO PL 5 July 1979, HOW TO FIND AND … [Read more...]
Voldemort Friday Update
I am catching up. Just a couple of days behind now. This is the report from last Friday's graduation. Good news everyone -- HE is still here and still doing graduation, much to the excitement of the locals. Wonder if he will stay in town now that his twin has shamed him so? Here are the notes: - there were 247 Student Hat completions this week, which means 803 in the last month [remarkable they constantly tout REDOs -- everyone redoing Student Hat now, because this one is shorter? That makes sense... He even touts REDO's of Ideal Orgs] - the average time to complete the Pro T … [Read more...]
Voldemort Update
This report is a week out of date as I am still trying to catch up with all the emails and tips sent to me during the past week.... While a large concentration of SPs was within a mile, Voldemort snuck into the Auditorium to deliver his latest "come-on" for the miraculous divine revelation that is to be "GAT II". He was so worried about all the SP's around possibly enturbulating his Super Powerful OTness that he hired off duty police to guard the buildings for days before, through and for days after the wedding. Along with the CWPD Officers were additional PI's and Flag Security who were a … [Read more...]
OT IX & X Promises, Promises….
A blast from the past. This is taken from a Source Mag sent out in late 1984. It serves to highlight the fact that the carrot is always dangled out ahead, and if the carrot gets too old and moldy, it is replaced by a new one. The goalposts are forever shifting. New OT VIII and IX being released on the "new ship" soon became just "OT VIII." Then it was OT IX and X packaged together as the new carrot and the requirement has changed over time. First it was "enough OT VIII completions", then it was 10,000 on Solo NOTs, then it was "All orgs SH Size" and now it's "All orgs Ideal." None … [Read more...]
