			<description><![CDATA[I just read the OSA NW orders at the link cited by Karen. The citations for the OSA orders are listed on the issues. Most of the issues were originally LRH PLs or LRH EDs or Guardian Orders. Two key LRH statements in the Black Propaganda issue (now OSA NW Order 15) are: 1. "Our propaganda is dirty BUT IT IS NOT BLACK BECAUSE IT IS TRUE. Black propaganda is essentially false." (caps my em[censored]asis) 2. "We won't be running a black campaign as we deal in truth." At the time these issues were written the GO was mainly focused on and dealing with an external conspiracies against Scientology and LRH. These were documented, and they crossed government, medical, psychiatric, financial and other lines. The issues trained GO staff to understand the mechanisms of black propaganda (negative ad campaigns if you wish) so that we would recognize them. The issues also instructed GO staff how to use investigation and TRUTH to expose conspirators and back them off their attacks. It was all about how to investigate and counter black PR! As I said above,it seems to me that OSA, now that it is under the control of David Miscavige, is more focused on covering up David Miscavige's abuses and in going after whistleblowers than it is fulfilling the mission LRH set forth. =Off-purpose; Wrong target. Re Paulette Cooper, mentioned by others - an overt and OFF-POLICY operation committed by a few specific GO staff. (LRH said our campaigns had to be based on TRUTH, remember). One of the principals who designed and ran that op died young of brain cancer - sad, coincidental justice - long before the raid. Paulette tried to make a name for herself as an investigative writer with her not very well researched, sensationalized book on Scientology. False reports and conspiracies that threatened LRH and Scientology DID happen. Paulette was just kind of a mouthpiece for some of that. If one has had case gain, wins, and life-changing cognitions in Scientology, then that person would understand why people would be passionate to fend of threats to the existence of Scientology (in the ethical way LRH described). On the other hand, if a person has had no wins or has never had good service, all this would seem to be a crazy, evil scam. Best wishes to all, Leonore]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Bruce, 1. I wrote about why LRH PLs and LRG EDs had restricted distribution because I thought that's what you were asking. If that isn't what you asked, sorry, but I didn't understand your question. If you have read the original LRH materials (online or wherever) you will see they are actually quite socially informative. 2. I never saw an issue from LRH ordering or authorizing or even encouraging illegal or criminal activity - quite the contrary. 3. The Admin scale must be kept in mind - LRH articulated goals, purpose, policy, and occasionally gave the goal for a broad program - always with intention of protecting Scientology with truth and exposees of suppression and with increasing the acceptance and value of Scientology in society with workable technology. Others down the org board issued more specific programs, projects, orders. 4. I can't speak for OSA or its orders. I can only observe that OSA is not the autonomous network that LRH established in policy. OSA is now run by the Sea Org and ultimately by David Miscavige. Strikes me that OSA is mostly used as a tool to "sic" on the ever growing field of former or questioning Scientologists - way off-purpose and profoundly wasteful and destructive.

			<description><![CDATA[Thanks Leonore. The HCO PL being confidential is not my question. But almost all the OSA NW orders are based on GO advices or some other comm most specifically not a PL. By that very distinction, their distribution would be limited. As far as out reality being a basis for secrecy, we could have a heck of a lively discussion on certain Scientology principles regarding out reality and public acceptance. Then there is the possibility that the reissue of the orders was in fact an alter is of some minute to large degree. Does a "GO only" issue correlate to a confidential issue to OSA? You hit a very salient point on GO vs OSA. Not the same organization at all although the behavior may have been similar in some circumstances. A lot of this is added inapplicable significance on my part, no doubt. But having read most of the OSA NW issues, I missed where LRH authorized criminal activity. I did see how these could be used to throw LRH under the bus and justify criminal activity. A fine distinction perhaps, but judgment has always been a crucial aspect for me to correctly apply what LRH wrote. My 2 cents worth anyhow. Bruce Pratt]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The Church of David Miscavige tried a dirty Ops on me, real dirty. But they paid for it dearly. The Ops did NOTHING to harm me, the case was closed in 15 mins, the co-ordination of law enforcement behind the scenes was swift and incredible. But , being the good and intelligent whistleblower that I am, I sent the link of all the OSA Network Orders to Law enforcement for them to understand the mind set and mentality and the endemic culture of what OSA and Office of COB and RTC operate on. I merely sent them the link. [censored]://www.keepandshare.com/d oc/1985591/frank-oliver-6-6-meg?da= y (Takes a while to download) OSA Network Orders are pages 112-114 through to 148 Probably the GO raid in 1977 confiscated the earlier Guardian order versions ~ but that was in 1977 and these are newer generation law enforcement and they needed to read them. It would never have even occurred to me to do this until they tried the latest Dirty Ops. I had actually warned them to not raise the ante on me. Because of the extreme ammunition in my back pocket due to the deluge of Emails to karendelac@gmail.com, they have absolutely no idea what levels I can take this to. Per Sun Tsu “the Art of War”, I pick my battles, I don’t just blab indiscriminately. Now the atrocities of what they did to former vets who left and spoke out is quite something. I have studied previous Dirty Ops in depth from David Mayo, Stacey and Vaughn Young, Jesse Prince, Tory Christman and the extreme hate pages on Marty, Mike and so on and so on. The “Church” got away with their Dirty Ops for many decades and think that that modus operandi is workable. But the world changed.

			<description><![CDATA[[quote name="Thoughtful"]Hey Bruce, Good question on the imposed restriction of issues relating to the GO. I don't know the answer, so perhaps someone else will. I would presume LRH labelled himself these HCO PLs "confidential." They are HCO PLs, after all. As a former GO staff - fully hatted and M9'd on just about every issue and most of the key directives LRH wrote for the GO - my interpretation as to why they were confidential is that it was an extension of the effort to keep entheta off the lines of public so they could get on with the business of auditing and training. The issues would have been out-reality for most public at the time they were written. One just would not want to distract parishioners and public with the entheta that the GO dealt with. The goal was to get more and more people moving up the bridge, after all! It was more expeditious to have a small, vetted cadre of staff tending to the entheta and attacks, and allow the broader public a smoother ride on the road to total freedom, so to speak. It was a need to know system focused on keeping suppression off public lines. (All LRH issues I ever saw had a specified distribution). In the context of the whole of the GO Bureaux hat(s) and the issues LRH wrote, it is clear that LRH's intent was purely to fend off attacks and black PR, to increase acceptances of Scientology, and thus allow Ethics, Tech, Admin to go in on the 3rd and 4th dynamics. It was to hold suppression (from within and without) at bay while Scientology became more indispensible to beings on earth, and the Aims accomplished. The intention was to do so legally, using an understanding of Tech and the human condition coupled with an understanding of black pr and intelligence tactics. It was believed that the attacks on LRH were quite well orchestrated by others who used these techniques. The "Snow White" program which became a pejorative, was simply to root out the false reports and sources of suppression on Scientology and handle such. Hence, "snow white." In the context of those times (1970s) citizen whistleblowing against various perceived government wrongs was accepted widely. (eg. Pentagon Papers, FBI Cointelpro operations, and others). Getting government documents that exposed wrongs was not such a bad thing, and if government files had evidence of efforts to suppress Scientology, we should have been entitled to know! Unfortunately, those who proposed and ran the operations that ended in prosecutions made mistakes and then tried to cover-up which led - as cover-ups almost always do - to disaster. (There has been a lot of exaggeration about things purportedly done, by the way). It hss always bugged me that one of the first things done on the current downslide of Scientology was the dismantling of the GO as an autonomous network. It was getting itself cleaned up after the raid. Putting the GO UNDER the Sea Org management rendered it impotent for internal security purposes. What we have now is a form of infiltration the GO would have been on the scent of and in a position to do something about - a sociopathic reptillian at the highest level. OSA is useless for this job and way misdirected. Things look so bleak now, I do almost think the Church is beyond repair. I probably wouldn't write here if Ididn't think so. What intelligent thetaful, energentic 20 year-old who might be a future mover or shaker would want to or even dare enter a Church of Scientology today? Scientology is literally reviled by a huge percentage of people - I've seen surveys saying so and observed it first hand. I just hope in decades to come that the Ethics/Tech/Admin of LRH won't be outlawed, and that there will be enough application of correct tech to stave off world-wide suppression. Revenimus! Thanks for an interesting post.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I'm glad that websites like this one are exposing DM for what he is - a raving SP - but I am not optimistic that the CofS will be "fixed" if he is removed or simply blows. How did Personal Integrity and KSW #1 go so out the window with so many Scientologists (including me!) with DM in charge? It's hard not to conclude that the vast majority of folks still in the church are in a condition of treason or lower on at least one dynamic. Makes me thing the only real hope for Scientology IS the independent movement.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thoughtful, I have one objection here about why Miscavige thinks crime is okay for him. If you read the PDCs (lecture Desire, Enforce, Inhibit) you will see that someone may think he has a God given right to do it. This God Given Right (GGR) is what DM is using. The only thing is that WE NOW are taking away this GGR from him because we are now many doubting his GGR whereas this was not the case before. Reality (any reality) is agreement of the many. Now, the many, do not agree anymore DM has a GGR to do what he does. THIS IS A BIG CHANGE!!! Before nobody would question that GGR of his. He is not Mr. Right anymore! Let's keep on. However, I believe, and I would like to let you know specifically on this, that if we are going to succeed we are going to have an Org Board, a 7 Div Org Board. I am calling this to your attention since I believe this is our next echelon, Organization.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[What the GO did to Paulette Cooper was definitely suppressive. It's no different from a criminal who sees nothing wrong in the commission of crimes. The GO and definitely DM sees nothing wrong in the commission of crimes. They think crime is wrong for everyone else, but okay for them since "we have to do it to survive" or "because we have to follow policy" or whatever. It's all crap. They don't have ANY moral compass or a lick of sense.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[STEVE SAID ABOVE But my purpose in this article is to cover the subject of black propaganda. For in destroying the integrity of Scientology, the Church became the enemy it once fought. "When you become like your Enemy, he has won" The Cult of David Miscavige has become the criminals they were fighting. Years ago, to shut up Paulette Cooper who was writing a book unfavorable to the Church, the then "Guardian's Office" the former incarnation of OSA, tried to set up Paulette cooper Paulette subsequently the target not only of litigation but a harassment campaign known as Operation Freakout, the goal of which was to deter Cooper from criticism of Scientology by having her "incarcerated in a mental institution or jail or at least to hit her so hard that she drops her attacks". Members of the church sent itself forged bomb threats, purportedly from Cooper, using her typewriter and paper with her fingerprints on it; further plans included bomb threats to be sent to Henry Kissinger. The Church's campaign was discovered when the FBI raided Scientology offices in 1977 and recovered documents relating to the operation. As Dirty as it gets.

			<description><![CDATA[I'm not a scientologist, nor do I think much of scientology itself, but I support what you are doing with this site. Whatever I think of Scientology is my concern and mine alone; people ought to be able to practice whatever religion they like without harming anyone. When a corrupt institution destroys the lives of people who speak out against it and the leader of that institution commits violent crime against its members, then it becomes a matter of public interest, so bravo to everyone here for all that you are doing to expose David Miscavige and his corrupt hierarchy. On a side note, someone ought to edit Stacy Moxon's wikipedia page, which has no trace of any story involving a suicide note or allegations of one. Somebody with more knowledge of the situation than myself should edit the page to reflect this additional information.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[For some time a number of ex-SO have been blowing the whistle on DM's abuses. Marty and Mike have taken the BRUNT of their dirty tricks. After the scandal of Enron a law called Sarbannes-Oxley was passed. Two provisions of that law apply to nonprofit organizations. This law particularly applies to a 501c3 "tax exempt" organization. One has to do with the destruction of documents, the other prohibits retaliation against whistleblowers. The triggering event is when the nonprofit knows or has reason to suspect a federal investigation. From that point forward any retaliatory action is a felony with very stiff penalties including prison. They cannot harass without stiff penalties. Here's the support group~~ [censored]://www.whistleblowers.org /index.[censored]?option=com_conten t&task=view&id=14&Itemid=43 You can also tell this SUPPORT GROUP what the "Church" did in applying OSA Network #15 (ABOVE) Report your Dirty Ops from the Church to me Karendelac@gmail.com]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA["People would rather have ARC and a folding card table".....boy isn't that the truth! When I first came into Scientology in 1985, I studied in an Org that was in an old building, no air conditioner or central heating and folding tables and chairs in the Academy. The auditing rooms were downstairs in little brick holes with doors. I loved it there! The Academy was full, people co-auditing and on study. The Div 6 course room always had people in it. Everyone had high ARC for each other....and then I started to see a slow decline in ARC over the next 3 years. Something didn't feel right anymore...I kept in touch, but never really came in anymore. Maybe David Miscavige is building these Orgs because he thinks they will attract wealthy people. They are easy to reg and can give big donations. Why bother with people who have little money, it's too much time and trouble? What he doesn't realize is that people with money are not coming into a Scientology building for nice MEST. Having nice MEST is a 1st [/b]Dynamic activity! Some like to play that game on the 1st Dynamic and some don't, it is a personal think. I remember in 2006 we purchased a property to flip in an old Historical District and got stuck with it for a few years. It was in a lower income neighborhood but the people who lived there were neighborly, friendly, and very happy family people. When someone had a birthday party for their child, the whole neighborhood got invited, including us. I was there a few times a week working and people always would stop and talk or bring me something to drink or eat. As a group they were at about 3.5 on the Tone Scale. I have lived in my beautiful neighborhood for 24 years and the people here mostly keep to themselves and the tone level is about 2.8. People like David Miscavige and others (esp. our government) thinks they "know best" on what makes a group happy...It not nice MEST on the 3rd Dynamic that people are attracted to, it's the Tone Level of the group first and foremost.]]></description>

			<title>Cruelty Exposed</title>
			<link>https://mail.scientology-cult.com/black-propaganda.html#comment-3252</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Thank you for this most insightful post. Vernon Howard wrote in one of his little booklets, "50 Ways to Escape Cruel People": "Some foolish people try to please Cruelians. Such senseless people think they will be loved for being idiots. When pleasing a vicious person: a. You agree with and increase your own spiritual weakness. b. You incredibly declare that cruelty is worth worshipping. c. You supply the Cruelian with the encouragement to continue his destructive ways. Instead, please Truth! Truth is a champion who will take your side every time, every place. And it will win for you every time." Also from the same booklet: "A Cruelian has a thousand excuses for his brutalities. He has a right to attack, he is only defending himself, others provoke him. When he justifies he lies. Worse, his cruelian cronies support his hypocrisy. Worse yet, his very victims often see him as a liberator. No doubt the victims of Jack the Ripper described him as charming, though a bit rough. This is self-deceiving, self-cruelty, which must be studied until ended." One more, "I am never required to cooperate with evil to my own destruction." Thanks again for this website !!!

			<description><![CDATA[You know there is one thing Miscavige really doesn't get: the entire crux of Scientology is not buildings and not MEST. The world is full of buildings already. Buildings and MEST are not what the world looks to Scientology for. The gift of Scientology -- and this is really what Miscavige has NEVER understood -- is ARC. Affinity, Reality and Communication. I can guarantee people would rather have real ARC and a folding card table, than no ARC in a multi-million dollar Ultra Org Maximus building. How obvious is that? Doesn't every Scientologist on earth actually know that already? What the world is lacking is terminals (auditors). Not marble lobbies. If a marble lobby could set people free, we could all just rush downtown into the nearest office building and soak up those good vibes from polished marble slabs and emerge in a new higher state. Unfortunately it doesn't work like that. In the early 1990s Miscavige was confounded why no one wanted to live at the Int base. It was a no-ARC hell hole, but he said "I gave you the most beautiful base in Scientology and you don't want it." It had an exercise track and playing fields... none of which anyone was allowed to use. There was no time allotted in the schedule to exercise. Somehow in his virus-nano-brain all he can compute is that if you plant grass staff will flock into the place and cry tears of joy while you beat them senseless, humiliate, degrade and torture them in every way. He thinks that because he personally has never experienced ANY case gain from Scientology. On a scale of 1-10 the pain level was always set around 15. Miscavige thought people were just supposed to accept that as their lot, and worship him for planting a meadow in the distance they are never allowed to walk on, while being surrounded by razor wire, motion sensors, hidden micro[censored]ones, video cameras and a security guard with a telescope on the mountain side who could track activity for 10 miles in all directions. He is a sociopath and a modern-day slave master -- for real, keeping human slaves. His biggest mystery is why the slaves are not content in their beautiful prison.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This article is excellent, positively brilliant with incisive analysis and very handy info. Fab, spot on succinct definition: Black propaganda is a covert communication of false data intended to injure, impede or destroy the activity or life of another person, group or nation, usually issued from a false or removed source from the actual instigator. And your description of the OSA harebrained slander "ad": That ad is so badly written it begs for banjo accompaniment. LOL! true! It's amazing and pathetic to watch the OSA and Miscavige corruption increasing disconnection with reality. Thanks for a very worthwhile and socially important article.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Oh my! If anyone from OSA is reading this, you have to be secretly asking yourself...IS THIS TRUE, "GROUNDING" OUT "CHARGE"? A "Grounding Handle"? "Bleeds" the "Charge" he's picked up from SP's at the Base and elsewhere? ALL DONE IN SECRECY, WHY IN SECRECY? I am not ex-so, just a regular trained, reel to reel, public who knows the tech works. I have always found that most people in the SO are intelligent and good people and I have always been thankful for their dedication in helping me up the Bridge. There are more people looking on these sites who are also public that I know of personally who do not post. They came to these sites because they knew something was not right in the Church anymore. If the public can see something is wrong, you must have some indication something is not right. I admire loyalty, but is your loyalty to the Tech or to a man who alters Tech. Isn't it time to save what un-altered Tech there is left? Is the next new "lost tech" going to be holding onto a pole and bleeding the charge out? What is the next "lost tech" we all are going to have to do and how come we never get to see the LRH hand written references on the "lost" tech? Help preserve LRH's Tech, remember Source. This is not David Miscavige's Church, nor his he Source. Did you ever see a Hat turnover from Ron to Miscavige giving Miscavige the right to change or alter the Bridge? This is not me against you, it is me asking you to please help.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Sinar, This grounding is totally different than the grounding for the studios, audio/visual. This is 'personal' grounding on a well, I don't know what to call this as it's simply so far off any chart I'm familiar with. LRH started to realize with a two-terminal universe, such as represented in an electric motor on a a gross, effort level, MEST plane,that something had to hold the terminals in proximity but apart. That was the 'base'. Without a base, no energy flow can occur as the terminals just snap together. From there he extrapolated that the fundamental 'base' of all the two-terminals in this universe is theta. That's what holds all this stuff apart. This is covered in the PDC's and various lectures and 8-80 and 8-8008 among other places. Still, this is NOT what DM is doing. What he is doing is 'grounding' out 'charge' he gets from 'SPs'. It's utterly squirrel and useless to boot. In fact, it is very much a 'Type III' sort of delusion we're looking at here. He's not with us on this time-track as it moves along.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Good points Jim & Steve, I could not initially believe these accounts of DM and grounding, but through the multiple viewpoint system realized it was true. While I was an electrician, I installed grounding rods at the audio building to Martin Reid's overspecced plan for the set up. He had 5 rods and they were each 3 ten foot lengths of copper coated steel rods which I had to drive into the ground using a jackhammer, bonded together (chemically welded) to thick copper wire, very much more than what the electrical code called for. All the electrical panels, receptacles and fixtures in the building were tied to this ground. I imagine the set up at the Cine conference room and DM's office are similar, but with custom DM handles or grab bars. Had read somewhere whereby LRH mentioned that the power of an electrical motor depended on how well it was grounded? Not sure if you guys - Jim- have seen the reference. Perhaps DM thinks he's an electrical motor being dynamo of entheta.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Dude! Wicked sharp. Wicked insight. There is also this from the the Targets, Defense PL -- A. Our best defense is that we are sincere, that we are effective and that we commit no crimes. B. Our next best defense line was being sure the public knew we were a Church. C. Our next best was being quick and able and using very fast comm lines. And we must reinforce A, B and C. From 1969, LRH saw the value in religiosity which does cast some interesting light on the cloaking work Larry Brennan speaks of. More importantly, LRH put it there that Scientologists should not snap terminals with the law breakers but should continue and enforce that they (we) break no laws. We've been on the high road; stay on the high road is what that says to me. Fight hard yes, but clean. Now one more interesting observation on this matter in general. Who actually classified what as restricted information? Most of the OSA Network Orders are based on LRH advices or some other written correspondence. Was this restriction add to or em[censored]asized by the Church terminals in doing these issues? As LRH points out the sociopath has this obsession with secrecy..... Glad to be on your team, Steve (et al). Bruce Pratt]]></description>

			<title>Copper cables</title>
			<link>https://mail.scientology-cult.com/black-propaganda.html#comment-3234</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Yeah, he was fanatical about the purity of the copper cables and having them grounded deeply into the ground. He held onto them in meetings when his rage became too much for him. I never saw him use them personally, but I heard about them when I was there from the electricians who were working on installing them, and then later from someone who was in a meeting when he had to grab his cables. Then there was the time when he played "Can We Ever Be Friends?" for the whole Int base collectively -- a tape which was intended for a new Scientologist to play for his suppressive parents so they would stop attacking him. When that happened, my thought was he's giving this to everybody? That's Type III -- when the person's attackers become "everybody." Another of his tricks was to put himself on an e-meter to see if he had a dirty needle. Then after screaming at and invalidating the crap out of others in the room, he would put them on the meter to see if they had a "dirty needle" -- a meter [censored]enomena that shows if a person is withholding something. However, as ANY auditor knows, this meter [censored]enomena is produced also by violating the communication cycle as by chopping the person's communication, not letting him answer, answering for him, invalidating his answers, interrupting his answers, ignoring his answers, accusing him, glaring at him, etc. So the test was rigged but DM always pretended not to know.

			<description><![CDATA[Steve, Absolutely great article! How can you be Buddha too? Steve Young took [censored]otos of me in orange robes at in the nearby mountains to the base at sunset which was published on WIS. Also spent hours in make up while Sherry (Jackson's ex) put on a bald cap on my head and along with more orange robes became a battered monk for the very same book. Perhaps DM has proven himself to be the Pope by selling indulgences through the IAS. He's probably got a program at Incomm to keep track of all those tens of thousands of Apostates and SPs in a database or something. I believe it was in the late 90's where all staff had to get meter checks weekly on Fridays at or after staff meetings. Those with dirty needles ended up at OGH for weeks for handling.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thank you for pointing out what LRH was doing with references you mentioned in this post. As a business owner, I understood what LRH was doing. The pressures I have had from government and competition was nothing compared to what Ron had to deal with in saving Scientology. It is very hard to point things out to people with so much BPC from being degraded with altered policy or tech because they look at those policies and tech from the viewpoint of how it was used on them or others. This is understandable. You have done an excellent job of pointing out what the actual intentions were and how DM and others altered it. I love this: "It relies chiefly on the technique of "classification" of another or a group or a nation as undesirable or evil". Boy you can look at history and see the events where this has gone on and it still continues today on planet earth. Thank you for your efforts in making the truth known. You seem like a very sane person.]]></description>

			<title>\'Incredibles\'</title>
			<link>https://mail.scientology-cult.com/black-propaganda.html#comment-3233</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Steve, Excellent, brilliant article. This and Connecting the Dots are laser precise. For the fans of this site, including especially OSA and other staff and public not announcing themselves, the last bit here, on DM's actual activities may seem to be 'incredible'. I understand a reticence to credit for example the idea of David 'grounding' out 'charge' he's picking up from the SPs that surround him. I myself had to question this closely. I had to confront the veracity of the report in the end of that questioning. It was not easy to face up to this degree of squirrelling with DM. The facts are hard to confront but here they are: DM has hooked up, in complete 'secrecy' a copper wire leading to an electrode, single handed and made of the finest materials available, a 'grounding' handle. He holds on to it, solo, and 'bleeds' the 'charge' he's picked up from SPs at the Base and elsewhere. Lest you grant this has some sort of LRH Hidden Data Line, take note, way back when, in 53 LRH mentions grounding a pc, on the PDC's. This was early research on the electro-magnetic-gravitic laws as relates to the composite being. Like the notion of a 'one-shot clear' ( able to be effected with a single 'shot', like the idea of one needle with the 'clearing formula' in it) it was not pursued. In this case, 'grounding', the reason is apparent, theta/thought is at a much higher 'wavelength' than electrons. As covered in the 1st ACC tapes, it ISN'T 'electrons' that comprise the fields around a being, but theta pictures, facsimiles, impressions of the [censored]ysical universe. They are composed of attention units/theta 'quanta' if you will and are handled with the techniques of auditing. 'Grounding' out 'charge' from myriad SPs surrounding him, David Miscavige is at the grossest level of MEST, way, way below theta and has in fact put together a completely ineffective new 'tech' that may or may not work on a Chevrolet or lawntractor, but it has NOTHING to do with a being. As hard as this may be to accept, it is nonetheless true, DM is utterly mad - the 'grounding' line exists and he has it for use. This is the direction he's taking you - into his madness. Go ahead, ask about the 'grounding' line. Try it yourselves, every house has one, and you tell us the results of holding on to it. Hell, go get a piece of copper pipe, stick it in the ground and hold on to it. Do you find the SPs surrounding you lessening in the charge they put out towards you? If so, then you and Dave are 'one'. Not a good place to be I dare say.]]></description>
