I did L11 around 1985 when there was still some great tech available at Flag. This rundown has 2 parts - there is a process at the end of Part 1 that was a true breakthrough for me. A few minutes after walking out of session I started...

This was a transitional level for me when I did it in 1975. It was nice but no match for the spectacular level that came right before - the Clearing Course - and the one that came right after - OT III.

I got my Grade 5 at the NY org in 1968 (as part of my staff contract) after having had some Dianetics and the quickie grades (I got my expanded grades later). My auditor Valerie (she's still around) was a Class VII and remains one of the best I've...

This can be a very, very long level (as it was for me) or a fairly short one (as it has been for some others). In any case, I have no complaints (at least not about the level itself - the Miscavige additives are another story). It takes...

The OT3 material has by now been widely publicized but back in 1976 it was still a confidential level, for real. I didn't know what to expect when I opened my pack, but when I got through that first HCOB, my body was visibly shaking, that's how startling it...

I did the Clearing Course in 1975 when it was the ONLY route to Clear. This was a hugely beneficial action for me with masses blowing left and right. Oddly enough, it later turned out that I was already Clear at the time I did this.

This is a very powerful rundown - it acted as a case cracker for me when I did this in 1986. The only caveat is it must be delivered by highly trained Class 12 auditor who knows what he's doing. In the wrong hands the results can be...

The Comm Course was my first Scientology service, done on a weekend in the fall of 1967. Just the basic TRs (0 through 4, OT TR0 was not out yet). By the time I was finished on Sunday night, I was totally blown out and stayed that way...

The IAS is a total ripoff project. There is already ample documentation that most of the money collected does not go to the programs being promoted but is instead going into David Miscavige's slush fund (now reported to be somewhere between 1 and 10 billion dollars). My own...

The six month check for individuals on OT7 is a totally arbitrary and out tech procedure. It acts as an invalidation of the person's progress, helps deplete his/her bank account, and can lead to illness, unemployment, bankruptcy or even worse. I suffered through 10 years of this nonsense...

I was on a lengthy search for answers back in 1967 when I was introduced to this book - a search that had included the study of various philosophical and religious texts from both East and West. As I was going through the pages of the book it became...
