Reference: A Course on the Factors

KHTK Factor # 2: The beingness is made up of postulates that are evolving continually.

The universe is being, and its beingness may be divided into the beingness of its components. The most important component of the universe is the human being. We may say that a being has essentially postulated itself into existence. We may, therefore, define an individual as a “system of postulates.” An individual is in continuation with this universe through his system of postulates.

There are gaps in our knowingness. We have developed religion, philosophy and science to fill these gaps. To fill further gaps, we are continually observing the universe and all its parts. To make these observations consistent, we are continually improving upon our existing postulates and, at times, making new postulates.

So, the postulate of ‘God’ has evolved over the time, as well as the reasoning based on this postulate. Religions have evolved and so has the Philosophy. Just in the last century science has evolved considerably to provide us with a much clearer concepts of space and time. “Cause-effect” and “spiritual-physical” are now looked upon as dimensions of this universe.

God (Unknowable) and Universe (knowable) are seen to be in continuation with each other, and so are thought and matter. They are neither separate nor independent of each other.

Scientology Factor # 2. In the beginning and forever is the decision and the decision is TO BE.

Of course, the universe is being there, but it is not static. It is evolving continually.

Logic

The logic is affected considerably with the evolving viewpoint regarding God, spirituality and materialism.

God is no longer separate and independent of the universe.

Spirituality is no longer separate and independent of the physical aspect of the universe.
