5203C03 HCL-1 Introduction to Scientology: Milestone One Wichita HPC-1 "Science" has gotten to the point where it is just a study of piles of data. It has drawn away from being a body of knowledge and consists now of unevaluated facts. The "natural history" of science is: 1. A push out into the unknown. 2. Collecting data. 3. Align data around a few theories. 4. At the end, it becomes stultified. It is capable of producing an effect in the physical universe, but that's about all. Dianetics was mainly interested in aberration. It was not intended to be all-embracive. Scientology is a study of knowledge, not therapy. However, we must now get back into the mind again. Although the goal is not a therapy, how can you teach knowledge to an imperfect computer? The mind would come close to perfection except for certain things which prevent perfection. The mind can know without letting itself know. The task of the processor is to get better working methods for others, then let them help him. The blind leading the blind, however, may fail when the blind are too blind. Therefore, scientology could only be applied by the very sane; it is concerned with the able. Sanity is an absolute perfection in reason that would resolve problems to the optimum good of all those concerned. Absolutes are not obtainable. Even if you were absolutely sane, you would still lack data. Milestone 1 is complete ability. This is a necessary condition to handling the world. Rehabilitation of the insane will be accomplished as an automatic spinoff from self-improvement and improving the able. Scientology could be defined as knowledge and its application in conquering the physical universe. The iron cover is off what we already know; we have the complete anatomy of the iron cover: Fac One. Everything else is a lock. You can start any processes off this first engram, using the E-meter. We have a very careful map of Target One. It is booby-trapped, but when you know the booby trap, you can walk right through it. Scientology is exact; there are no maybe's up to the point of thought creating physical motion. There is very little self-determinism up to the point of milestone one. When you do get there you will be free of LRH and scientology too. Even what we call a clear is not there yet. When you have arguments with yourself, you have different personalities in yourself arguing. These may exist in different areas, e.g. the stomach area. Anyone will show up on the meter as having at least three different personalities. If you see two arguing, there is a third which is kind of noble; it's adjudicating or it's sound asleep. Then there may be a fourth one. These are circuits, but they are personalities; they are always in the same place in the same people. If you shift from the left side to the right to the center, you get a somatic in the center of the forehead. Could this be the third eye? You as an individual? An engram? The proper thing to do is to run it. The point is to become one person. You have to run this thing before you can be you. It was done by supersonic waves. The engram thus created says not to know. A basic problem with anyone's understanding of scientology is not knowing the words. A word is just a code. The semanticists ran off the road by saying that there was such a thing as an undefinable. This is not the case in the realm of the knowable.
