OT III Anomaly
- It is interesting to observe that “mass implanting” was seen as the solution to overpopulation on OT III background story instead of death.
- It may mean that the population was considered to be made up of immortal thetans, and death of the body could not properly eliminate them. So, dead people were also counted as part of the population.
- If so, then the anomaly is that if the number of thetans cannot decrease through death, then it cannot increase through birth either. There is no one-way street in this matter. If the thetans were always there then their number should have remained constant.
- “Mass implanting” is no way of decreasing the number of thetans. It can only make them controllable. In that case, the problem was one of control and not of over population. But Hubbard did not use that as the problem.
- This means that overpopulation is a made-up story. Hubbard simply wanted to stress upon the idea of “mass implanting.” This is because there exists sameness of the reactive mind mechanism from person to person.
- One needs to analyze how OT III addresses this sameness of the reactive mind mechanism from person to person.
- H-bomb in the story simply means that at the bottom of reactive mechanism, there is a severe explosion-like shock. A severe shock allows misleading data to become deeply embedded in the mind.
- It is very difficult to handle such deeply embedded data, without approaching it in a very precise manner. On OT III the approach is to run Incidents I and II as engrams on each body thetan one at a time.
- Hubbard must have experienced Incidents I and II repeatedly during his OT III research in full detail. That must have made quite an impression on him. He ended with the conclusion that “One’s body is a mass of individual thetans stuck to oneself or to the body.”
- These body thetans appear to be units of deep programming much like AI (artificial intelligence) that manifest as body sensations.
- When you are running a body thetan, you are essentially sorting out a viewpoint. This viewpoint may be associated with some body sensation. That sensation may be connected eventually to some experience.
- This viewpoint of body thetan must be pared down to its simplest form before running it. As an example, one can have a very unappreciative viewpoint toward the body; whereas, body is a wonderful and useful mechanism.
- The suggested primary handling of body thetans is by running them through Incidents I and II. Sometimes level 0 to VI processes are required before they can run engrams (Inc 1 & Inc 2). Sometimes they have to be run on Power Processes first.
- In the auditing of body thetans, the person acts as pure awareness. He is thus exterior to the condition while observing that condition. The viewpoint (body thetan) is part of that condition. That condition can be out of valance condition, psychosis, fixed ideas, or service facsimiles.
- The auditing is done per the grade chart, and directed at what needs to be addressed. Such auditing is fast. The e-meter is not that useful other than indicating the TA movement.
- Running OT III requires extensive training in running all other Scientology procedures. That makes it too long a runaway.
- When OT III is not working, precision is missing in terms of having the precise viewpoint or running the precise process.
- LRH provides the datum: “Thetans believed they were one. This is the primary error.” But this is an erroneous viewpoint.
- Actually, the primary error is not addressing the precise viewpoint with the precise process when auditing OT III.
- The precision is provided through subject clearing by simplifying the L&N process. Please see The Listing Procedure.

Subject Clearing
Subject Clearing starts with the following basics.
According to Subject Clearing, a body thetan would be a special kind of anomaly that affects the viewpoint.
