Comments on CHAPTER TWO
The Target of Auditing

Chapter 2 looks at several targets that present themselves in a case. The target for auditing are essentially the anomalies that make up the case. Such anomalies can be subject cleared by oneself using The Discipline of Subject Clearing. One applies one’s theta—the ability to postulate and to become aware—to resolve them. These anomalies fall under four major categories as follows.

(1) CELLULAR INJURY: A cellular injury comes about when there is an accident, burn, or an incident which has just occurred. The somatics are very sharp. Individual cells are generated from DNA programming, which may contain a record of prior injuries. You audit out the earliest injury to the cell.

(2) GENETIC ENTITY:  The genetic entity represents all the cellular experience on the genetic line through the DNA programming. It serves as the blueprint for the body. It has the manifestation of a single identity located at the center of the body in the stomach. There may be anomalies in the programming to be resolved. You audit them with subject clearing.

(3) INJECTED ENTITIES: The injected entities have the characteristics of AI (artificial intelligence). They take on personalities formed out of the person’s thoughts. They are associated with geographical areas in the body. These areas relate to major nerve centers in the body. In auditing out these entities a person must apply the discipline of subject clearing very strictly.

(4) THETA BEING: The theta being is the “I”, it is WHO the person is. The being is modified by these various entities, but that confusion is cleared up with auditing. It is the being who is auditing his beingness. The anomalies exist mainly as fixed considerations. It is not the body, but a fixation on the body, which is a major anomaly. The body itself is an integral part of the being and must be cared for by handling anomalies in it.

All this other phenomenon that appears after the theta being is put to sleep, as in hypnotism, does not contribute to auditing. Auditing is the process that increases the awareness of the theta being.

Hubbard thinks erroneously that having a body is an anomaly. That is not true. The actual anomaly is having a fixation on the body. Hubbard was confused on the subject of exteriorization. See The Definition of EXTERIORIZATION.

DEFINITIONS

GENETIC ENTITY
Genetic entity is the DNA programming, which represents all the cellular experience on the genetic line. It serves as the blueprint for the body. It has the manifestation of a single identity located at the center of the body in the stomach.

INJECTED ENTITY
Injected entities have the characteristics of AI (artificial intelligence). They take on personalities formed out of the person’s thoughts. They are associated with geographical areas in the body. These areas are related to major nerve centers. In auditing out these entities a person must apply the discipline of subject clearing very strictly.

SOMATIC
By somatic is meant a pain or ache sensation and also misemotion or even unconsciousness; awareness, pleasant or unpleasant, of a body.

THETA
Theta is the “ability to postulate and to become aware.” It represents the ultimate beingness. 

THETA BEING
This is who the person thinks he is. Theta being seems to represent the analytical ability of the mind, which does not exist in animals. The unassimilated impressions associated with the “I” are the most important target. Out of the resolution of these anomalies will come a better understanding of who one really is.

Comments: The Route to Clear

Reference: A History of Man
Reference: CHAPTER ONE

Comments on CHAPTER ONE
The Route to Clear

This chapter asserts that the problem of HOW to audit the mind has been resolved. So, it is time to focus on WHAT to audit with the assistance of an E-meter.

It is common sense that one should start with whatever is bothering a person the most. But Hubbard had theorized in Dianetics that much more could be accomplished by auditing the earliest engram on the case. The person had a time-track, which extended back from the present life to the genetic line, and even earlier to the “whole track.”

Hubbard believed that the “whole track” incidents were the earliest; and auditing them was the fastest route to clearing the person. His goal was to produce a Clear. His theory was that earlier incidents held later incidents in place. Therefore, he assumed that there must be a FAC 1 or “basic-basic” on the time-track that was keeping a person’s whole case in place. Such a “basic-basic” had to exist way back at the beginning of the “whole track.” Hubbard believed that everybody possessed a “whole track” and a “basic-basic.” To him, the fastest route to Clear was to find the “basic-basic” of a person as soon as possible, and erase it. The E-meter was “just the right tool for it.”

This was in 1952. Hubbard tried hard but he could never find the “basic-basic” on a case. Seventy years have passed since the E-meter first came into use. The E-meter has been improved even after Hubbard passed away in 1986. Still, the E-meter has never been able to detect a “basic-basic.”

Today, we know that any case has few engrams only, and once they are detected and erased, it is very difficult to find more engrams. But plenty of anomalies (see the definition of anomaly below) can be found on a case. The person makes progress by eliminating such anomalies. Actually, Buddha emphasized the handling of anomalies in his Kalama Sutta. Hubbard also tried to handle these anomalies under the guise of “body thetans” on OT Levels.

The Mind: The Tool for Resolving Anomalies explains the structure of the analytical and reactive minds in more detail. It explains what happens after the first few engrams on the case are erased, and why it becomes difficult to find more engrams. The fact is: as a person goes up the Grade Chart his awareness increases. The person’s gut feeling becomes more effective than the E-meter. The engram actually appears as a number of anomalies instead of as a picture.

There is no FAC 1 or BASIC-BASIC. An engram actually appears as a “set of anomalies” as awareness increases.

The “whole track” incidents may serve the same function as myths in religion, in the sense that they may provide archetypes useful in detecting anomalies.

The best approach is to start a case with an actual anomaly in the present time that is bothering the person, and trace it back to more basic anomalies and, ultimately, to the gap in the person’s awareness.

Such gap is hidden underneath some projection or assumption. As a person becomes aware of such projections or assumptions in his thinking, realization occur that fill those gaps in awareness.

There seem to exist no single point, such as a basic-basic, to which the whole case converges. Instead, the case consists of gaps in awareness covered by projections or assumptions.

As these gaps are filled, a more basic layer of gaps is, then, discovered. And, so it goes.

A person becomes Clear, when the few engrams on his case are erased and his awareness comes up to a point that he can spot anomalies in his environment and in his own thinking. The technology of handling such anomalies is Subject Clearing, which benefits from the Data Series of L. Ron Hubbard.

.

DEFINITIONS

ANOMALY
Origin: “irregular.” An anomaly is any violation of the integrity of reality, such as, discontinuity (missing data), inconsistency (contradictory data), or disharmony (arbitrary data).

BASIC-BASIC
Any similar circumstance repetitive through a person’s whole track has a first time it occurred and that first time that it occurred we call basic-basic. [Note: A cycle simply keeps repeating. It may not have a beginning or end.]

CLEAR
The Clear has no engrams which can be restimulated to throw out the correctness of computation by entering hidden and false data in it. [Note: The state of clear comes about when all unassimilated impressions from present and the past are broken down into perceptual elements and assimilated in the mental matrix.]

FAC 1
Facsimile One; the one basic engram on top of which all this life engrams are mere locks. [Note: This has to be something very general; it cannot be a specific incident.]

Comments: Theory Asserted as Factual

Reference: A History of Man
Reference: FOREWORD

Comments on FOREWORD
Theory Asserted as Factual

The HISTORY OF MAN contains a theory of Hubbard, which he developed with the help of the E-meter. See E-Meter and OT Auditing.

In this foreword, Hubbard is making a big deal out of the idea of whole track because it is something new to the Western civilization. But the whole track has been known in ancient India as SAMSKARAS (latent impressions that manifest as tendencies) that get passed down from one life time to the next. This has been known in India since Buddha’s time, or maybe even earlier.

So, the whole track is not really the issue. The issue is Hubbard’s theory of the whole track.

Miraculous results are achieved when samskaras (latent impressions) are resolved through meditation. Of course, abilities are recovered too when such impressions are assimilated in the mental matrix. This has happened routinely in India. Nobody cares about the content of such impressions, because it is not relevant to the process of meditation. In the book, HISTORY OF MAN, however, Hubbard has come up with a theory about the content of such impressions, because it, apparently, helps the process of auditing.

Hubbard theory relates to the contents of the whole track.

Hubbard says,

“By adding up and checking probabilities on scores of persons, the character, extent and content of the whole track was mapped. Once the E-meter gave reliable data, the main problem became the estimation of intentions, of sources, of the reasons behind the reasons…”

When the e-meter’s needle reacts on a question it doesn’t necessarily means that the answer to the question be interpreted as YES or NO. It simply means that there is a charge on how the question is being interpreted by the mind. In other words, the mind is confronted with an anomaly.

THE E-METER DOES NOT VALIDATE A QUESTION OR ITS IMPLIED CONTENT.

The E-meter was used by Hubbard to date the “incident” on the time-track. For example, Hubbard would come up with a number like “3,296,843,125 years ago.” But the E-meter is not reacting to that particular number in the person’s mind. It, however, is reacting to some anomaly that we know nothing about. The number may serve to put the attention of the person on the anomaly. This does not mean that the datum “3,296,843,125 years ago” can unquestionably be admitted as factual.

Hubbard has the past track data described in the book HISTORY OF MAN with E-meter’s help; but the literalness of all that data is suspect. For example, when you ask a person about his identity in a past life, he may get a picture of being the Buddha. But that is merely a dream-like picture, which may represent some feeling, tendency, or desire.

THE E-METER DOES NOT PROVIDE ANY CONTENT IN RESPONSE TO A QUESTION.

Unfortunately, Hubbard used the E-meter to validate his own theory for the whole track’s content. He formulated questions based on his theory. Then, if the meter reacted to the question, he assumed the implication from that question to be correct. Thus he “verified” his theory from E-meter reactions.

Hubbard’s theory about the contents of the whole track, thus, became factual data to him.

Many of Hubbard’s followers have taken Hubbard’s SCI-FI type assertions about the whole track as factual. This seems to have led them, in many cases, down a rabbit hole.

The contents of the whole track in Scientology is simply a dreamlike visualization of various mental tendencies, and nothing more.

DEFINITIONS

E-METER
Electropsychometer; An electronic instrument for measuring mental state and change of state in individuals, as an aid to precision and speed in auditing. [Note: The E-meter actually measures change in body resistance in reaction to momentary thought.]

WHOLE TRACK
The whole track is the moment to moment record of a person’s existence in this universe in picture and impression form. [Note: The whole track is made of impressions on the mind that are not necessarily continuous.]

Subject Clearing Articles and Books

Reference: The Book of Subject Clearing

As you study an article or a book on a subject, your purpose is to grasp it fully. The data contained in the material can be quite complicated or obscure. So, you carefully study one paragraph, or section, at a time. 

When there confusion, doubt or perplexity in a paragraph, clear it up using the procedure given in Word Meanings. After each paragraph, or section, briefly write down your your understanding and any doubts or questions. It may help you identify anomalies after you complete your study of the article, or the chapter of the book.

Once you reach the end of the article, or the chapter, some of the anomalies that you observed earlier may get resolved. So, you review all your comments and write a summary of them at the end of the article, or the chapter. In the summary, you may also refer to the key words related to the anomalies still to be resolved. 

Here is an example of a book that has been subject cleared: Hubbard 1952: A History of Man.

.

Gaps in Materials

As you make progress in your study of a subject as above, you become aware of the gaps in knowledge that you would like to fill. The most important gaps to fill are in the broadest concepts of the subject. So you become more selective in choosing the materials to study on that subject.

You might end up with a list of anomalies present in the subject.

.

Key Concepts & Glossary

You may keep a record of the key concepts in a subject from the broadest to the narrowest in that order. You may maintain a personal glossary for support.

In a Subject clearing project all notes and definitions are in a flux. They are continuously being reviewed and updated based on feedback from others and from further study.

Here is a current project listing some key concepts: Postulate Mechanics

In my case, my whole blog supports me in my subject clearing effort.
