Here is a detailed review of Factor # 2 from the book Scientology 8-8008.
FACTOR # 2: In the beginning and forever is the decision and the decision is TO BE.
Per Factor #1, there is nothing before the beginning. Therefore, whatever appears in the beginning is relative, conditioned and impermanent. It is a kinetic condition.
The kinetic may become more or less kinetic. In other words, there is a continuity to it. The kinetic may become more or less complex in this process; but there is a harmony to it. The progress of kinetic may take place along many different paths; but there is a consistency to it.
Looking backwards at there appears to be increasing chaos. Looking forward there seems to be increasing order. The existence seems to be gradually moving toward some equilibrium. But time appears to be unending either way.
The increasing order may imply that there is predetermined “Free Will”, but this cosmic pendulum may swing past the equilibrium the other way just the same. However, the continuity, harmony and consistency may remain throughout this cycle to make any sense.
The Factor #2 may be revised as follows:
FACTOR # 2 (revised): In the beginning and forever is the beingness characterized by continuity, harmony and consistency.
