.

The adjectives are:

Nice, Naughty, Good, Bad, Holy, Evil, Creative, Destructive, Productive, Ruinous, Valuable, Valueless, Agreeable, Disagreeable, Pleasant, Unpleasant, Heartening, Frightening, Informative, Mystifying.

3. Having ________ pictures.
4. Not having ________ pictures.
5. Using ________ pictures.

Therefore, in this GPM there are a total of (8 x 20 =) 160 items.

.

Running the Lower LP GPM

One contemplates on these pairs as in the earlier GPMs. Pictures may come up on which the persons attention is fixed. Look at these pictures closely until some realization occurs.

The Basic GPM addresses mind as a picture machine.

LRH Instructions for Basic GPM

In the Subject Clearing approach the E-meter is not used. We simply use the gut feeling of Oneness to spot anomalies and resolve them.

.

Subject Clearing Prerequisites

Study and understand the following concepts:

1. The Mind
2. The Anomaly
3. The Oneness

.

The Basic GPM

The item for this GPM has the form

An Explosion

1. You must _____ a Picture Machine
   You must not _____ a Picture Machine.

An Explosion

This GPM starts with “an explosion” and ends with “an explosion”.

.

The Verbs

The following 70 different verbs are used with the above item. The same verb is used in both the blanks in the above item. This provides 70 GPM items.

Construct, Eradicate, Create, Destroy, Feed, Starve, Believe, Disbelieve, Desire, Eschew (forgo), Approach, Avoid, Join, Sever, Contact, Separate from, Connect to, Disconnect from, Communicate with, Spurn, Agree with, Disagree with, Like, Dislike, Have, Despise, Value, Condemn, Welcome, Refuse, Concentrate on, Disperse from, Fixate on, Dissociate from, Heed, Ignore, Depend upon, Blame, Maintain, Damage, Care for, Abuse, Have, Discard, Obtain, Reject, Acquire, Abandon, Use, Neglect, Utilize, Dispense with, Validate, Invalidate, Exaggerate, Reduce, Boast about, Apologize for, Compliment, Excuse, Show, Screen, Reveal, Hide, Recognize, Blank out, Discover, Overlook, Remember, Forget.

For example, the first item is,

1. You must construct a Picture Machine
   You must not construct a Picture Machine.

Essentially, this GPM has to do with taking different actions with respect to the “Picture Machine.”

.

Running the Basic GPM

Make sure you understand the meaning of “Picture Machine.” It is essentially the mind. It is a matrix of postulates that converts the incoming sensations into perceptions. This matrix of postulates operates on the Principle of Oneness.

You plug in each verb and then contemplate on the item. You contemplate as per the earlier GPMs. Resolve the anomalies as they come up.

On this GPM you are gaining control over your mind.

These are typical incidents that might come up while running GPMs.

The OT II items and incidents represent something deeper. They are not to be taken literally. LRH writes in “Foreign Language Caution”:

When a student on the course does not have English as his native tongue, or as language changes up through the years, or when the Clearing Course is translated into another language:

The greatest care must be used to establish the exact meaning or equivalent words. The most precise meaning is required and off shades will prevent erasure with much upset.

Such a student or translator must use a Meter to obtain the translated word and establish its correctness. It will of course be the most lasting read, which lasts after all other versions have ceased to read.

Ordinarily when you have the right equivalent, wrong versions will not read.

Sometimes when you have discarded the right one you have to regain it by finding which one reacts to “suppress” or “challenge.” Only the right version reacts to these.

It would be well to check all the key words of a GPM for the correct version of non-English words before attempting to actually run it.

One should rewrite the entire GPM or pattern in the native tongue one uses. Don’t attempt sight translation.

Ignore the (-) numbers as the first run.

If people ever cease to go Clear on these plots, realize English has changed and rewrite.

The implication of the above, when running OT II with Subject Clearing (without a Meter), is that one should not take such incidents literally. Instead look at what is triggered deep within your mind, which is symbolized by such pictures. You will sense it, and you will know it, even before you attempt to express it in words or symbols.

THE ARROW

This consists of two Targets with an arrow pointing into each, counter poised. The front target is white and the rear one is black.

The Targets with the arrows appear for 1/10th of a second, during which time it tilts one way and then the other. It’s terribly fast, so one made a picture to see afterwards what it was. Get the speed it did this. Get your own reaction to it. It’s just a sudden appearance and disappearance. It wobbled in and wobbled out.

.

DOUBLE ROD

This incident consists of a long shiny black rod moving in from left to right. Then somehow it is like two rods, or one rod with a split in the middle, the left one being white and revolving forward, the right one being black and revolving backward. Then they both disappear forward and upward. DURATION: 1/2 second – corrected to 1/8 second.

There is a tremendous feeling of EXCITEMENT attached to this incident. It has a sort of feeling attached to it as if one was being as if it was being squashed between the two revolving rods.

.

WOMAN

A “Woman figure” appeared before one. Nothing happened. It just appeared and remained a few hours. It sort of “got in one’s face”.

.

WHITE BLACK SPHERE

This is a sphere on a pole. The sphere and pole are Black in front. White in back. It’s based on the idea that a thetan “can’t think two thoughts at once”. It does not reverse.

.

HOT COLD

This is a pole with a split in it. The back split is hot, the front one is cold. Two temperatures. Duration is 1 1/8th seconds.

.

LAUGHTER – CALM

This takes place in a cave. It is 7 1/8ths of a second in duration. It has screams of laughter, very wild, and calm. Calm = frozen numbness.

It is a pole with a split in it. Laughter comes from the rear half and calm from the front half simultaneously. Then they reverse. It gives one a sensation of total disagreement. The trick is to conceive of both at the same time. This tends to knock one out.

.

DANCE MOB

The duration is 7/8ths of a second. There is a pole that pulls one in. One is caught on the pole. The actual incident is in connecting with this thing and trying to get off it.

The dancing comes after the actual incident, and consists of a mob dancing around one, chanting various things (a text). In running this, get the phrases that are chanted
