6109C13 SHSpec-53  Sec Check and Withholds

     On sec checks, if people argue that rights of privacy shouldn't be
invaded, e.g. in a public meeting, the answer is in the HCOB 8Feb60 "Honest
people Have Rights Too".  This has been so neglected on this planet that only
criminals have rights.  At Saint Hill, among the domestic staff, the ones who
had withholds always got rid of the good staff members.  It always works this
way.  The ones with withholds will tell lies about the good ones and seek to
get rid of them because they can't bend them down to their level.  Good staff
members are made nervous, upset and uncertain about their future in the
presence of insecure people spreading entheta.

     Withholds cause people to get individuated more and more, to the point
that they're not even themselves.  A guy who shoots ducks can't be a duck.
The more individuation occurs, the less likely a person is to be able to walk
out of anywhere.  It's like backing up through a succession of isolation
rooms.  A person, to be in good shape, must be able to be almost anything.  To
the degree that you can't be something, you have overts on it that you are
withholding.  It's well known in the motorcycle world that some people have so
many overts against motorcycles that to touch one produces disaster.  You can
stop automobile accidents by having the person reach and withdraw from a car.
He'll drive better and stop having accidents.  You could also run
start-change-stop on the vehicle.  This process could give you somatics as the
overts start blowing.

     The best way to blow overts is with the sec check, because the overt only
remains bad if it's withheld.  Wars get fought because it's so horrible to
have a war that it gets put on automatic.  That is individuation from a
subject and loss of control of it.

     If you can be something, you won't have to become it.  There's another
mechanism, too: after you backed yourself out of life to the end of the
corridor, you snap terminals and obsessively become the thing you were trying
to leave.  This is valence closure.  It's the withholding of overts that does
it.

     Where you have a PC who's loaded with withholds on a sec check, you've
got someone who can't be.  And you are trying to find valences.  You can't
find valences easily on someone who can't be.  But you can find the fixed
valence he's in, because it's this mechanism -- the mechanism of O/W causing
valence closure -- that has led to his becoming that valence.  So you could
find someone's terminal without completing his sec check.  But he'll be hard
to get into session if he's got lots of withholds, because of the resultant
individuation.  He gets easily upset because he can't be a PC and is critical
of the auditor because he has withholds, You can run, "What are you willing to
be? / What would you rather not be?" Two things will occur if you run it very
much:  It will soften him up on a security check, because beingness and withholds are opposed and one solves the other.  However, it also walks the PC
into his valence chain without identifying the chain, so it can get him into
engrams he's not ready to run.  You must remember that she somatic is where it
is on the track and in no other place and it will release only from that
place.  So you can walk him away from that place on the track, which keys it
out, or you can walk him into that place on the track and as-is it.  That's
all processes can do with somatics,

     Withholds will often soften up and knock out present-time somatics by
walking the person away from the area, and maybe that's a good thing.  He
could be stuck tightly into an engram in life, and you can move him out of it
until you're got him in shape to run it out.  He could be so tightly in it he
couldn't put his attention on the session.  The best approach to this is a
security check.  You could even run it on the basis of his chronic PTP
somatic.  It knocks out his obsessive individuation.  This is an assist that
walks him out of the valence he's been stuck in He's always got the chronic
somatic on the chain of the valence which will be his terminal.  That's why
you have to get the correct goal and terminal, because there's only one
valence chain in which he's stuck.

     The end product of no withholds is good communication, not clear.  Sec
checks can be tailored to hit the area of the person's PTP so as to key it out
so you can make progress with the case.
