LRH: HIS STORY

This is a very vague history of LRH/Church of Scientology from an auditor's viewpoint. Feel free to comment, add, or disagree. It's my opinion only, dates are only approximate, and a lot of it has necessarily been pieced together over the years from hearsay.

In the fifties, I believe LRH had [mixed in with his secret agent/used car salesman/race track tout/con artist motivations] a sincere desire to share his understanding of the mind with others. I do think that he saw many things more clearly than most of the people around him.

His own writings, [Evolution of a Science, 1948, if my memory serves] reveal that he was experimenting with auditing on drugs during the late 1940's. I suspect he was flying high on speed or coke [much as I understand the NLP originators were] and was seeing much of the same patterns as the NLP boys. [Witness very parallel technologies.]

The tapes of the 50's reveal him speaking as fast as he could to try to get as much information as possible out. He was excited. He wanted to tell you! He wanted you to know! He could SEE! He wanted to SHOW YOU! The tapes are often fascinating, if not revelatory. His understanding of flows and the four conditions of existence [which he did NOT originate, as they were clearly elucidated in the Dzog-chen and possibly Bon religions long before the Buddha's birth--not that it's relevant to LRH] are a startling occurrence in basically anti-spiritual western culture. Good for him! He was not completely nuts! That's a BIG PLUS!

In the fifties, Scientology was done almost exclusively by private practitioners, who didn't have to join or belong to anything. A lot of good auditing was done by people who bought Dianetics and never saw an org or heard of Scientology. They were totally unregulated. If they did got to an org a take courses, they left on their own to do their own thing. Many of them did very well and helped a great number of people.

In the sixties, on the tapes LRH speaks .... very .... slowly .... with .... long .... comm ... lags. Mostly, when he is talking, he is making himself right about his errors and blunders [witnessed by wholesale cancellations] on earlier tapes, or screaming and thundering in rage that he NEVER SAID what you VERY CLEARLY heard him say on a tape just last week [and have right here in your tape notes]. Every year, he tells you that the 40% of cases that we couldn't handle last year are 100% easily crackable by this latest new [fad] technology. Then, next year, he tells you the same thing. There isn't any new technology developed since the 50's. There is lots of new technology announced, but if you know the history, you can see it is the same old stuff dusted off and re-issued with new titles: for bigger, more expensive can't-do-without courses.

He reminds me on the 60's tapes of a chronic coke abuser who is past the new addict's rush of enthusiasm and is burning his brain out rapidly, but still thinks he has a lot to say. He can't quite remember what it is, so he spends much of his/your time telling you how important it is--while he's getting around to it. Those tapes are BOR-ING to listen to. In the 50's his attention was on the subject and he was trying to get you to see it. In the 60's his attention is on himself, and he is trying to get you to see how important HE is, and how you can't live without his data. What a drag.

In the early 60's, believe it or not, orgs were really decent places to be. They were filled with AUDITORS [not Rondroids and SS military functionaries in prop department uniforms], who [amazingly enough!] audited. You could go into an org and, for reasonable prices, get good auditing from a good auditor who cared about YOU [not about his holier-than-thou "technology" crap] and who earned enough money to live a lower middle class life with his own apartment, a reliable car, and maybe even a spouse or children. Wow! What a concept.

By '65 to '68, I think LRH had gone totally psycho. I know that by this point he had developed his psychotic paranoia of germs [typical of coke/opiate abusers]. This dates at least as early as the first Class 8's on the Apollo [a converted cattle ship] being forced to scrub the bilges and insides of the hull with toothbrushes to make sure it was clean enough for HIM. This psychotic fear of germs continued till the end of his life. [Witness the bizarre air conditioning systems he designed to protect himself from GERMS at the "COMPLEX" in LA.] His bizarre torrents of rage and livid screaming throw-them-overboard temper tantrums were a fact of life until his death. These and his opterm--everyone [they're ALL out to get me!] "quirks" are ALL TYPICAL RUN-OF-THE-MILL COKE ADDICT BEHAVIOR.

Yes, yes, I know, LRH *WAS* VIOLENTLY ANTI-DRUGS--FOR *OTHER* PEOPLE -- and especially for the people whose minds *HE* wanted to control.

I know from one of his cabin-boys that he had STACKS OF PADS OF PRE-SIGNED BLANK PRESCRIPTION FORMS in his cabin. [I believe that Nibs testified somewhere under oath that Ron carried heroin and other illegal drugs on sea org ships--could someone confirm this with a cite?] [I also heard Ron fed Quentin pheno-barbital-laced chewing gum to keep him quiet.] I THINK LRH WAS A COKE ADDICT. HE HAD *ALL* THE CLASSIC SIGNS. I think he smoked it in those Kools he always had at hand, and only smoked a few puffs from--as if he had put a few drops of liquid coke in the end of each one.

Part of his burgeoning craziness was the creation of the Sea Org, which Scientology had functioned just fine without until about 65/66. Not content with building orgs to teach people to audit, he needed a praetorian guard to hide him from governments, keep him out of court [his crimes were starting to catch up with him, again] and silence his enemies.

At about the same time, he got over his shyness about his own importance, announcing in 1966 that all the research had been done, there was nothing else of importance to discover, and he was now releasing it as the Clearing Course.

Of course, there was still that 40% of the cases they couldn't handle, and he couldn't take back his announcement of the STATE OF CLEAR, so then they had to develop OT levels [something above clear]. These are all new kinds of levels in that they don't ask the pc what is wrong with him and handle that--they tell the pc what is wrong with him and what he is going to do about it.

I see this as evidence that he was so totally drugged out and lost in the mystery of his own case and dramatizations that he forgot what he knew in the 50's. Like Koos, he became convinced that, if HE thought it, it must be true! He became, in his own mind at least, the ONLY ONE EVER to rise above the "bank." He graciously traced a route for others to follow him into their own insanity.

In 1968 came STANDARD TECHNOLOGY and the Class 8 Course. How something can be 100% PERFECT AND STANDARD [definitely NOT uncertain, vague, under development, and open to your interpretation or contribution], and nevertheless change every two weeks, is one of those mysteries only Scientology can solve. The original Class 8's brought back with them STRAIGHT FROM LRH and Flag the QUICKIE GRADES, which meant that instead of AUDITING the preclear for a LONG TIME until he was a lot saner, you took his money, and then TOLD him he was sane at the first sign of a floating needle. Prices for auditing [in line with this new, more valuable, non-delivery of auditing, and the need to support his exploding intelligence/dirty tricks network] took a commensurate stratospheric RISE.

This of course, crashed the orgs stats. Pc's couldn't afford auditing. When they could afford it, they couldn't get it. The didn't get much saner, but they were encouraged to pretend that they were. The Scientology organizations, which had actually been booming in the early 60's based on the delivery of training and auditing, began to collapse. The natural solution to this was, of course, HEAVY ETHICS: annihilate those treasonous motherfucks who DON'T PRODUCE.

The Sea Org took over the running of the orgs. Auditors wages were cut to nothing. We got ethics conditions, amends projects, dirty gray rags, declares, etc.. The Guardians Offices was fired up with great enthusiasm to crucify those suppressives that were ruining Scientology. The witch hunts [which Scientology had prospered without for so many years] were on!

Of course, this drove all of the good auditors out of the orgs into private practice and missions. No one with any sanity, havingness or ability would put up with being the whipping peon of hordes of brainless ignorant arrogant self-important Flag Missionaires who not only couldn't audit, and hadn't had any auditing, but had no concept of what auditing was about, and didn't care. Orgs became dumping grounds for people who could be "body regged" off the street and told what to do 18 hours a day, 7 days a week, no matter how stupid and loathsome it was. A great victory for the Commodore!

During the 70's, the orgs struggled to survive. Robotic staff, insane management, and non-delivery of the valuable product of auditing were crippling burdens. Surprisingly, however, the Mission Network [staffed by all of those good auditors driven out of the orgs by Shultz-Staffel Blitz Krieg Management Techniques] delivered great service and expanded. This kept the orgs alive by feeding them lots of people who associated Scientology with the friendly helpful sane competent loving people they met in missions, rather than the nightmares of military brutality and insanity that they were about to experience in the orgs.

In 1977 you had the big FBI raids in LA and DC.

Reasonably soon after that was a huge purge of personnel from the Sea Org and from orgs. Many people would say that the process of the insane robots driving out the sane competent people who kept things going was accelerated.,

[I suspect that this was the effect of agreements between the raiders--who now had tens of thousands of pages of evidence of felonious dirt on the Co$--and the Co$, who had been collecting dirt on the raiders for decades. I suspect that the raids let the government make the offer-that-can't-be-refused to the Co$ to join the "country club" of the old-boy network. They were in with the big boys, and had to get with the program. Everybody who thought for himself and didn't do what he was told, no matter what, was an expendable liability. I suspect that third parties now starting taking a hand in shaping Scientology policy. This paragraph is my conjecture only: I have no secret data on it I have not revealed.]

So not only did you have people like David Miscavige--essentially Hubbard's butler--elevated to positions of great responsibility, but their mission seemed to be to get rid of people who had decades of auditing and management experience and knew what was going on and wouldn't believe the latest bullshit and do insanely destructive things just because they were ordered to by a Bozo in Braid.

By 81/82 this wholesale op-terming of the best people extended out of the orgs into the field. It was determined that the reason the orgs were collapsing at an even greater rate was because of those suppressives in the field--all those EVIL auditors and mission holders that were sending people into the orgs. So all the good people in the field were declared and their very valuable missions and buildings were seized by the church with no compensation. Suppressives were everywhere, and only the Sea Org had the unreasonable ruthless determination to exterminate them wherever they might be in the name of total freedom.

[As a GestapOSA agent auditor, I noticed that many of the Young Turks either were or thought that they had been Nazis in their last lifetime. Watching their behavior is a good argument for the reality of past lives. At least Ron had the courtesy to provide them with a ruthlessly cruel military/religious crusade against the suppressives/degenerates to make them feel right at home and give them something they were good at to do.]

[Around this time you also had the noticeable non-activity of Mr. Hubbard in running the organizations, and rumors of his Howard Hughes-like drooling idiocy or death were rampant for the year or two before it was announced that he had completed the immortality rundown and no longer had any need for his body. It was suggested that someone was keeping his body on ice and signing all of those papers for him. Now that's what I call MAKING IT GO RIGHT!]

Eventually, one way or another, he did die. [You know, I still don't know where they buried him. Why isn't the body/grave a Scientology Shrine? They should have a glass coffin like Lenin, or at least an eternal flame. Better yet, prop him up behind the desk in the LRH Comm Office. I'd PAY to see him dead!]

Since the 81/82 purges in which Scientologists, and particularly auditors and mission holders, became the EVIL PEOPLE, I think that you could make a good case that the Mission of the Church Scientology has been [as demonstrated by ACTUAL RESULTS] to PREVENT AUDITING, PREVENT COMMUNICATION, AND PREVENT ENLIGHTENMENT. At this, they are WORLD CLASS.

You could almost imagine the powers that be looked at what was going on and decided that only the very well heeled [or the agents of very well heeled agencies] were going to have access to whatever technology of enlightenment existed. First the good auditors were driven from the orgs to the missions and field. Then the missions and field were slaughtered by declares and all kinds of highly illegal terrorist activities to drive ALL THE COMPETITION out of the field.

ONLY THE CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY HAS A WORLD WIDE TERRORIST NETWORK TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU DO NOT HELP YOU FELLOW MAN GO FREE. *ONLY THEY* WILL ATTACK YOU FOR HELPING YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS. IF I ASK MYSELF, WHAT PREVENTS THE GOOD WORK THAT HUBBARD *DID DO* [YES, I SAID THAT--HE DID DO SOME VERY GOOD WORK BEFORE HE WENT *TOTALLY NUTS*] FROM BEING USED BY PEOPLE TO HELP EACH OTHER?-- THE ONLY RELEVANT ANSWER IS: THE CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY AND ITS TERRORIST NETWORKS.

THEY HAVE BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL AT TERRORIZING THOUSANDS OF SKILLED AUDITORS OUT OF AUDITING INTO OTHER PROFESSIONS--ALL IN THE NAME OF THE "STANDARD TECHNOLOGY" OF "TOTAL FREEDOM".

After many years of fear-induced silence, I am writing these articles now only because I see in the Net a *possibility* of stopping their insanity: not a certainly or even a likelihoodjust the only hope. This open window of global communication may close any day. They are doing their absolute best to slam it shut on your throat RIGHT NOW! If they succeed, they will again rule with their iron fist of totally unreasonable brutal psychotic intolerance, and those who have spoken out against them will be silenced forever by any means necessary.

HELP YOURSELF GO FREE. SPEAK UP NOW--while you still have the chance of many lifetimes.

Sincerely yours,
