This is Scientology Religious Cosmology – Hubbard’s 1952 Lecture “The Role of Earth”

Dianetics The Modern Science of Mental Health was published in May of 1950. Less than 2 years later, L Ron Hubbard gave this lecture on 30 October, 1952. That’s 2 years before the Church of Scientology of California was founded.

If you want to know what Hubbard was doing, it is contained, more than anywhere else, in this 1 hour lecture.

If you haven’t heard this lecture before, then you don’t know what Scientology is.

This lecture can also be found on YouTube here.

Full Transcript of L Ron Hubbard’s 1952 Lecture “The Role of Earth”

I want to call your attention to something considerably interesting. It would be terribly interesting you see, if all of this was just a fairy tale on what is the state of the real universe. You’re engaged with certain problems. You’re engaged with certain definite problems. And these problems have to deal with three certainties. And I’d better tell you something about these three certainties.

But before I do that, there is a certainty called the MEST universe. Unless you can discover and unless you use a certainty on the MEST universe, what is actually the series of agreements, which we call the MEST universe. Unless you are willing to use this data for what it is you’ll find yourself, and your preclear, in a state of delusion. In other words, you are saying something that is the MEST universe isn’t the MEST universe. And that, of course, is a method of getting everything upside down.

But royally.

If you went around, for instance, telling everybody that there were no lorries going down Holland Park Avenue, and being quite upset and so on, because no lorries were going down Holland Park Avenue, and there they go down Holland Park Avenue. Well, you could do this silly trick of going out saying view of the fact there are no lorries go down this avenue, “It doesn’t matter if I step under these big red things and so on”. It’s just as idiotic as that is.

When you get some kind of a planned setup condition of affairs, you examine this condition of affairs very carefully. You find out that it agrees to this extent as MEST universe. That is the definition of MEST universe. Is, of course, the common denominator of agreement. That is, that is the MEST universe. It’s a series of agreements.

And when you’re examining the MEST universe, you’re examining something solid. It’s some agreement that you agreed on, other people agreed with you on, and so on.

Now, what did you agree on that is the MEST universe? Now, when you take pre clear after pre clear after pre clear after pre clear, you put them on E meters and you try to run them… You try to do this. You try to do that straight on through.

The Elements Contained in Every Human Mind

And you find in each and every case, you’re finding the phenomenon of entities, Bodies in Pawn, communications, space ships, other planets, locations, beingness in other states, and all of this. And you find this to be a consistent condition – you have fulfilled this definition of the MEST universe.

It’s evidently agreed upon, and it’s agreed upon because it’s actually true. You couldn’t go out and get somebody off the street and put an E meter in their hands and start asking questions on this without getting the same response as you’d get from your classmates.

They would know nothing about this, I took a little girl one night during a demonstration and put her on the E meter. And this little kid, I started questioning her, and I was going to ask her about something, just to show the class what the series of questions would be about current life. And the next thing you knew, this little kid was shaking in such a degree that the chair legs were grappling against the floor. And she says, “You mustn’t ask me the questions. You mustn’t ask me any questions. You mustn’t, you mustn’t, you mustn’t, you mustn’t!”

She was going all the pieces on the thing, and I said, “of course, it’s very clear, it’s all right for me to ask you questions” so on.

“Where are you?”

And she said, “I’m sitting before a big panel.” And she says, “I didn’t used to sit there. I’m sitting there right now. That’s me. I sit in front of this panel. This is my job. This is my job. I’m not supposed to tell you what my job is but there’s this panel and so forth.”

“Communicator switchboard?”

“No!” and she just starts going on … “You wouldn’t mind telling me the codes that go across the panel.”

And she passed right straight on out.

She’d never heard of Bodies in Pawn or, or other governments, or invader forces or anything of the sort.

Well, I snapped her around and carried on with the rest of the questioning. And was simply able to do so because I happen to know, it’s a very funny thing to say, but I happen to know her commanding officer… And I gave her… silly? Isn’t it? And gave her the messages which had gone across her panel an hour before, at which moment she immediately quieted down.

She said, “Well, I’ll probably be taken all two pieces in the morning”. And I said “no you won’t be”.

She wasn’t…

But she was a communicator who was running a communications switchboard.

Now another time, just to give you consistency in this, another time in front of a class, much as this one, I picked up a girl with the electrode terminals in her hand, and started to ask her about this and that, and we find her sitting in front of a communication switchboard. Girl knows nothing about electronics. You told her to describe to you how to answer a telephone. She would probably bog on it a bit. And yet, she is a communicator. She’s a communicator in a system known as the space stations.

The Use of Asteroids as Light Gravity Spacecraft Landing Stations

The space stations exist out here in the solar system. They use the asteroids, a very peculiar system. This solar system has a planet which is broken up. The asteroid belt. It gives a low gravity platform for takeoff and so on. And that broken planet is of considerable interest as a space station, that is to say, a galactic jump.

There aren’t any planets up at this end of the galaxy which form a good galactic entering spot for incoming transport and other ships. And they put this beautiful, broken up planet here with a light gravity, sun and so on, makes a very ideal spot.

And as a result, this area of the solar system got into prominence. It got into a little bit of prominence, and it’s slightly a bone of contention.

And there was the fourth invader force was here. The fifth invader force came in to use this area. And the name of this solar system is Space Station 33. And the they started to use this this area without suspecting that the fourth invader force had been there for God knows how many skillion years, have been sitting down, and they have their installations up on Mars. And they have tremendous screened operation, the Martian operation is a fascinating operation, simply because it has gone into 100% holding force. And it does everything it does with tremendous coversion. It’s sitting behind a defense screen of enormous size. And nobody, it’s frankly impossible to penetrate that except as a thetan.

And if you penetrate as a thetan, you go through the Martian screen, and they Gotcha!

Well, now the point, the point is that the fifth invader force operated for some little time here in this system without suspecting the existence of the fourth invader force. And all of a sudden they started to lose crews, and they didn’t know where they were going. And they got a little more upset about it, a little more upset about it, a little more upset about it. And a battalion was sent down here to Earth 8200 years ago, the third battalion. If you find somebody with a member of the Third Battalion well speak up, because the whole battalion, its officers, staff and so forth, was under the command of the expeditionary force in addition to the commanding officer for this, not for just this area.

All right, sounds awfully wild. It just sounds really incredible, but that’s just incredible in the frame of reference of Earth. Actually, this isn’t very incredible. 8200 years ago, they came down in Himalayas and the upper, upper headland, about, about, oh, I’d say about 72 miles northwest of Khyber pass and put a base in there. And not not, he’s still not believing that there was anything like an invader force operating in this system failed to take any of the vaguest precautions with regard to their installations.

They put up no defenses. After all what was here? Nothing but Homo Sapiens. It was just nothing, no danger, no menace and so on. And they were in this installation just a very short time when all of a sudden, with a terrific crash, the fourth invader force, which was a little more active then than it has become since, knocked out this whole battalion. A battalion of that size is in the neighborhood of about 3000 beings. And picked up all of its staff, all of its all of its staff, officers and so forth, and took them through to Mars, and then knocked them back into this human race here.

They’re still here. There are saucer crews here. There’s all sorts of things on earth here from the fifth invader force. Very interesting. This is directly and violently in opposition to the fourth invader force. And the fifth invader force, out of its own protection, took over Venus. All relatively modern times, took over Venus and tried to stabilize the Venusian.

If you called a fifth invader a Venusian, he would probably shoot you out of hand, because it would be a horrible insult. They merely monitor the government of Venus. And they leave Mars strictly alone. Now this is really roughly a rundown of the quote, “political situation” in the solar system.

Now that’s very interesting, because it gives you as preclears bodies in pawn of the fourth invader force. It gives you tremendous volume of personnel that have been poured down here for various nefarious purposes, all of them under some kind of a covert direction.

Typical game, every goal they’ve gotten, they have a reason why they can’t reach the goal. Typical game, sort of an implant these people are operating on. They’re relatively inefficient. But boy, can they hold on to things. Do they accumulate… MEST or that sort of thing.

You’ve got your big holding operation. And you’ve got, running through this a fifth invader force operation, which is strictly, really disinterested in earth. Not really interested in Earth at all as such, because Earth is a heavy gravity planet. And who the hell wants a heavy gravity planet? Earth would be much better off lying in chunks in an orbit around the sun. Naturally, pretty, pretty rough assignment, blowing up something this size and putting it around. So nobody will do that.

The Earth Is a Prison Planet

But completely aside from that fact, Earth has been used consistently as a prison. And it is a prison and it is heavily screened. There are installations in Mongolia, there are installations in the Pyrenees. Here on Earth, there are installations down the mountains of the moon in Africa. Which pick up, very often, people on death. And the thetan and just doesn’t know what’s going on. He’s in a state of deep hypnosis, really. And the moment he finds himself in association with a dead body, the thing keys, and he reports where he’s supposed to go. And he’s changed, moved around here and there, comes back down.

He’s really… from death, back to assumption of a new body, and so on. It is ordinarily a time period of about 15 minutes. He has three engrams. Knows 15 minutes, one to death, two, the wipe out and implant between lives, and three, the assumption knocking out the GE and taking over a body at birth.

Very interesting.

All right, you run into these things with PCs. It’s the only reason I’m talking to you about ..,

A Body in Pawn utilizes, not the thetan, but ridges. Here’s some of the most fascinating things. They’ll take a thetan and they’ll build up ridges. And these ridges will act like personalities. And because their wavelength is known, they can be monitored. So very often run into entities, and there are a certain number of entities, and they’re in a certain order, and so on. And they act like beings in a person, but they are not beings.

And you want to know how to get rid of an entity? A couple of auditors here run into this problem in the last week, and that’s why I’m going over this ground with you. Actually, this is covered to a very marked degree in the course books, and it’s covered in What to Audit. Not perhaps with you now, but if it’s covered, how do you get rid of an entity? You simply find where that entity is located, geographically, in the body. You do this with an E meter.

Your next step is to find out where the entity is stuck on the time track. And you’ll find out that it’s some sort of an incident having to do with the body in pawn. It’ll be a between life implant. It’ll be something on this order, it may be that you will find that the person during an operation has suddenly conceived that he is dead, has reported by him he obviously was not dead.

And what they did was lay on to one of his ridges, which he took right along with him, of course, lay on to one of his ridges the fact that he mustn’t know and he mustn’t tell. Very often when he appeared back in a body with the violence of pain of an accident or something this sort, he killed the body in pawn, to which he was very nebulously attached while he was here.

What is a Body in Pawn?

Body in Pawn – something fully in fluid or under an electronic constant of electronic bath. Yeah, you find these described. They’re lying on a pallet or something of this sort. The body is completely motionless, and at the foot of this will be something that looks like a window, and it’s not a window. Here’s a big joke for you: take a body, you can take a pre clear, and coax him to knock off a Body in Pawn. Make the body dive through one of those quote ‘windows’, make him raise enough hubbub and hurrah so that he’ll be gunned down by guards or something.

It’s really not much of a shock, because, you see, he’s not in that body. He’s just nebulously monitored by that body. Because somebody can walk in, stir up the body, give the body a command, and he himself will perceive the command.

This is a relay system of ridges.

Now, if you get rid of one of those things, run out the point where the ridge is stuck on the time track. You just run it out as an incident. You asked the pre clear to move into that area of his body and push on through the incident as though it happened to him. And he will tell you in a moment or two, but this didn’t happen to me. This is just lying here. Up to that time he thought it happened. It didn’t relate what it was, it was a facsimile laid down on one of his ridges. And you will find that as many as five or more Bodies in Pawn are being held here and there throughout the universe for one pre clear.

All they do is take, they grab the phenomenon of ridge you see, and they throw a facsimile into play on that ridge, and the person can be monitored. Now the horrible, most horrible of the entities is the stomach area entity, because it’s in conflict with the GE. This entity is quite often responsible for nervous stomachs and so forth.

Different Moral/Value Systems of the Space Civilizations Running Earth

You want to know something about cold blooded brutality and why people here on Earth are so completely, horribly fixated on “let’s be kind” and let’s get it organized one way or the other. It is, it is the utter brutal disregard for beingness which you find throughout the systems.

What you have here and consider humanitarian and so forth, is a very interestingly built up system. There’s a caste system which is exercised in other parts of the solar system, which would appall the most viciously minded Duke whoever lived here on Earth. The slavery and what men are put to in that slavery, how men are treated, so forth.

For instance, the Body in Pawn, which will have something to do with a stomach entity.

The stomach entities become so terrified they will actually go along, and you just kick it or needles, or something to make a pain or shock come down and hit somebody here. They’re fed with force, quite often, and when… it’s sort of a paste of some sort and it’s put in something really like a grease gun, and you see this stuff in our grease guns down the throats have pushed this thing down on that feed, that’s really very interesting.

But you can keep a body alive for an awful long time. Under these conditions, you’ll find people who’ve had bodies in pawn for some 10,000 years. They just go up and give his body just a little bit of a tremble, of course, and it just comes completely to pieces.

Well. Now…

As far as the reality of this stuff is concerned, it’s not generally been accepted here on earth that such things existed. But I noticed that we have what’s known as science fiction. I noticed we have that, and noticing it many, many, many years ago. I thought this was a good gag, so I wrote a lot of it.

You wouldn’t dare write real science fiction. Not real science fiction. Nobody’s guts could take it.

So you’re looking around for brutality and what’s mauling your preclear around, and why he’s in apathy and so forth. You better readjust your sights again as to what it takes to aberrate a being. It takes plenty. It takes a terrific magnitude of incident to do anything. Do anything to it is up in the billion volt category.

All right. Now, as I say, this sounds science fictiony. Well, don’t let it sound science fictiony to you, because the truth be told, it’s not science fiction. In the first place is not fiction, and it really isn’t very closely resembling what you read and call science fiction.

Science Fiction is just a very chimerical sort of a picture of it.

Space is wild. There aren’t any writers down here, and there’s no audience down here, that could take, that could take real stuff about space, it’s wild!

Grey Doll Bodies of Fifth Invader Force Officers vs Human Bodies

Well, let me tell you just a little story. This isn’t just the story. One of the fifth invaders, an officer, came down here to take a survey. And this is very adventurous. And in order to take a decent survey of the place, because you understand that fifth, and invader force officers, carry a doll.

They don’t carry bodies. They carry dolls. Identification is a doll. It’s a very little flimsy mechanical there that you can make talk and walk and so forth. A cute meter’s tall, the light grey, therefore you don’t need you see, you don’t to use oxygen in saucers. And all of this stuff inside, especially this rock cockle boy has for cargo beyond re cargo. It’s a simple beyond simplicity. Yeah.

This little doll and the theme energy that a fellow puts out is quite sufficient to monitor the control switchboard in the back of the doll. Simple, and he tunes it up. He’s got his wavelength tuned to it, and so on. It’s so he can walk it around.

And he has, at the same time in installations, he has what you would classify as human beings. And there are people in bodies who are doing work in various installations, up through the system.

Bodies exist. I’m talking about officers. They’re a pretty high order of thetan.

So there’s a doll. He’s monitoring this doll. And a part his doll and picked up one of the persons connected with the ruling House of Hapsburg, and went on a survey of the domain, and took notes on it. Unfortunately, he didn’t have any foggy notion of how violently this particular Prince was hated. And this prince was assassinated. And before this officer could disconnect, so forth, the thetan charge which suddenly sprung up in the assassinated Prince, kaboom, was sufficient to overwhelm and overpower this officer momentarily, and he went through the screen!

I’m telling you this because it’s an average story, not a spectacular story, not because it’s different, but because it’s the same. He went through the screen kaboom. And he landed on an installation well about a few 100 miles north of the equator, what you considered North was trying to translate the words and directions on Mars, Boom he went through and the Martians said “oh boy what have we got here, wonderful, wonderful, a high volume thetan!”

He must be a faith. So they took a couple of standards, put them down. What are the cells? Or have a good identification through a body in form and so forth. And they decided they’re going using back in yesterday, he wouldn’t transport him. Just threw him in the clink, you might say it kept him there, kept him there, kept him there, kept him there. Kept him there.

One fine day, one fine day, he took the body in pawn and threw it through his guard screen and blew it up. Was able to do this, and himself got free on the back concussion, you see of this was explosion, and went powerful. He went back down to big McColl X and said, What have I been for the last 27 years?

Something about the order, “You should ask”. And he wrote out a chit, they got a couple of cruisers, and they put together a few commando forces, and they took that installation to pieces, but thoroughly to pieces. They took what Martians that were in that installation and so forth, and put them in cans. As far as anybody knows, they’re still up there. But blew this thing, frankly, off the face of the map. Most Martian stations are much tougher than that to crack. That’s an incident of a tiny character and a person operating.

I told you that it’s because a fairly modern incident in the last few 100 years. You’ll find lots of incidents like this in your free period, and lots of background like this. And they can’t understand why their values are this way and why their values are that way. They’re trying to fit the most outrageous set of Earth values up against the values which they have had for God knows how long, and they just won’t mesh.

And this assists in the oblivion that you find people. By the way, this is matter of small interest within the next century, that same officer, that same officer, had completed his survey back down here, and here’s what problem is based No,

But you see, you can’t be sure exactly what you’ve got your hands on. And just because I have told you this story, just because I’ve mentioned such stories to you as somebody with a Body in Pawn for 10,000 years and being monitored and sent all over the place and that sort of thing, there’s no reason why you should tell it to your pre clear. But it gives you a line on what to ask, just a slight lead a question.

You say, where did it happen? He could say Kentucky or Sussex, but he normally won’t. He’ll say Mars, Venus, or give you some planetary name you’ve never heard of. You’ve got to audit these ridges through to get rid of these ridges if you’re going to treat the body. But you understand that when we’re working with this sort of thing, we are, to a large degree, treating the body.

Bodies Are a Nickle a Million

And this is a question of, who the hell cares treating a body. Bodies are nickel a million. You only knew it. Any one of you here, any one of you, could pick himself up the line and go out, pick up anybody you see, this person’s going to die someday, pull them out, pat him on the head, say, “Mars”. They go.

Sounds very horrible to you. That sounds like a terrible violation of private rights. That’s because you’ve decided upon a much higher level of action. And yet, what do you know? It happens. Every once in a while it happens. You could do this. Now, if you’re out of your body and stable, and if your preclear is out of his body and stable, …. The point I’m trying to make is that you have escaped from and step sideways from the liability of sudden shock to the body.

If you had done this itself so that the body can be hurt for regardless the state of knowingness, regardless the ability to put out energy, regardless many other these abilities, you have achieved a knowing immortality for your preclear for yourself, you have stepped actually out of the line of stimulus response and being the victim on all of this sort of thing. And of course, it makes a tremendous difference to a person. You didn’t realize how, how widely one’s values change on such a thing.

Because it just doesn’t matter how many bodies would Kick the Bucket. It doesn’t matter you would come up China on the map. You want to protect that skill because it’s the only thing that ever got you in trouble, the you’re unable to stay outside of bodies when they were given a sudden shock or when they were hurt, so look it up through the command range on a body. Don’t get stay down on the other level. And actually what you want is an immortality so your body gets knocked off. So what?

Very few people have a viewpoint, even when they’ve been out of their bodies, developed up to the level that it should be going give you today some very vital data on this, because I’ve seen that there are two or three points which have not been clearly grasped. And in view of that, why?

Let’s get the data clearly grasping now, I don’t care. You can say I’m telling you fairy tales about this sort of thing and something, we won’t worry about the credulity or incredulity of the data. Don’t force this data on your pre clear, because if you force it on your pre clear, you will throw something into violent restimulation that you’ll be sorry for.

How to Resolve the Problem of Entities in the Human Body

But if you find your preclear is having an awful time over something or other in some zone in his body, let’s say some entity is stuck on a time track in that zone, and it might be one of the reasons why he can’t get out of his body. And if you’re going into the business of cleaning up body, you’ve got to be able to resolve the problem of entities.

You resolve the problem of entities located in the body, and then finding out where it’s stuck on the time track. And you will find a death or an implant, or something of a sort, occurring at that point, you ask the thetan, the individual, to sort of move into that area and move through that incident and bring that entity up to present time.

Now he has a tendency to give the entities complete credit for beingness. And the entities don’t have beingness.

They react to passing energy. The energy goes out from the individual through the entity, and the energy comes out from the environment and goes to the individual and passes through the entity.

So the environment can restimulate the entity.

The preclear can restimulate this entity.

You see any your preclear looks at this and wonders why, in the name of common sense, he acts that way. It’s because when he puts out energy in that direction, that entity, stimulus, response wise, that ridge, goes into effect. And he has no accounting for the fact, because he didn’t put anything in the pack.

And when, when somebody scolds him suddenly, or something in the sort, he’s perfectly willing to bite their head off. But instead of that, he feels scared to death. Why this is unaccountable. So he begins to believe there’s something wrong with him. And the truth of the matter is, there isn’t anything wrong with him. That’s true.

The only thing you could say would be wrong with him is he has a lot of ridges around him, which have facsimiles on them, and these ridges can be thrown into restimulation. And then he stands there and watches this. So you see, it’s a mystery to him. So he begins to think, after a while, “I must be nuts”. No, thing. Yeah, I’ve got some. There isn’t any such thing as a sane entity, because there’s no such thing as sane stimulus, response, activity. But don’t think your entity can’t think it can think it has a certain order beingness. It’s not alive. It’s running on the faith energy. But because of associative nature of energy and other things, it can think. It can act.

You can talk to an entity and have it talk back to you, and so on. You can throw the attention of the thetan around the body so as to restimulate the entities, one after the other, and therefore, but you do this like this.

Now, you say, all right now, this right outboard entity. Now, talking this right outboard entity, so and so, sorry. And you say, do you like ice cream? He says, No. It says it doesn’t like ice cream. What you’ve done, you see, is take the thetans energy beam, and you’ve thrown it out here onto this ridge because you said the right outside didn’t show. So that’s direct stimulus response. It’s just a ridge. And there it sits. And you throw the thetans energy at it, and your energy’s going at it. Don’t omit that point – you are stimulating it. You’ve got a beam on it, he’s got a beam on it.

So of course, it’ll talk cute, very, very humorous mechanism, actually, but people still would feel like laughing, because they can make a man feel like he’s been torn to bits. You talk about, you talk about fear, and you talk about, about agony and being pinned down and and all the rest of this. This is on these darn ridges.

Entities and Ridges ARE the Reactive Mind

Now you’re looking at what I’ve been describing here – you’re looking at the reactive mind. You’re not just looking at something that’s vaguely like the reactive mind of the first book. You’re looking at the reactive mind. The first book could be said to be a description of ridges and the behavior of ridges. You want to know a lot more about how outrageously ridges could behave and so forth. Just read about the reactive mind in book one, and that is actually the ridge that’s the richest behavior.

So the reactive mind has geographical locations in the body is found the energy ridges on which facsimiles have been affixed, and the stimulus, response character of them causes very, very aberrated behavior. They have an associative quality, that is to say they they’re this absurd logic that’s one thing, another thing, and so forth. But they’re down closer to an identity, A equals A, equals a, equals a, than they are to thinking really, and that’s the way you tell what this thing is. It’s reasoning on a equals a, equals a point. You can actually ask an entity certain questions, and it will give you identity responses.

Korzybski, Korzybski and his tremendous piece of work there was trying madly to differentiate over, above, around under, alongside of and forgotten saints. Let’s do something about this. A equals A equals A equals a, of an electronic ridge to which facsimiles are fixed. Now you want to know routes out of this trouble. How are you away from this trouble? He points out a route, his route’ however, although Hayakawa and some of the boys in general somatics, believe there’s a therapy involved in it. There isn’t you can you can train. You can train and train and train and train and train. When you’re training into differentiation and all you’re doing is training in a secondary circuit response. You see, you’re saying, the fellow starts to identify, and then he gets very careful and differentiates. Well, now he’s got a circuit set up that differentiates what he started to identify. And of course, all you’re doing really is giving a lot of credit to some ridge. You’re getting the ridge credit to beingness. And the guy will get worse, he won’t get better.

So watch crediting riches, that’s true, isn’t it? You he wants to happen. So if you must be concerned with the body, the thing when he moves out will generally leave the bulk of these ridges in the body. He moves out knowingly, he just leaves these ridges, these ridges sitting in the body, and so on.

But he has built them up, and he’s carried them around, and he’s pulled them in. He’s done these various things with him. He’s finally fixed this body with a great many ridges. These ridges have a very strict pattern they have very strict behavior. And this outrageous story I have been telling you about space stations and all that sort of thing is very muchly responsible for the state, the insane character of these darn ridges today.

Are you going to find preclears Once in a while who will start giving you messages? Of course, they’re on a communication line. Why shouldn’t they give you messages? Some guards been walking past some cell where there’s a body in pawn and all of a sudden this body stirs. Bodies are not supposed to do that. So he says, oh, somebody just died, but then it doesn’t stir the way a body stirs when it just died.

Somebody’s monkeying around. Probably a few years ago, they said, Oh, some damn hypnotist, nobody will believe him. Anyway. They didn’t do too much about it, but that’s not been the case here in the last year or so, and they’ve been fascinated. And they’re just about as helpless as babies in diapers because they’ve got a holding operation.

They’re guilty of tremendous overt acts themselves. They have no method of attack. They have been influencing via the mind for so long that they’ve actually lost their initiative to do anything else. And if anybody was going to do anything to Earth on a violent side, or anybody who’s going to do anything to people on a violent side, it would be somebody like the fifth force.

But the fifth force has completely opposite interest in Earth. It does not want to do anything to Earth. If anything is protecting earth at this time, it’s the fifth force people. But isn’t it strange that you will find the fifth force people occasionally have a body in pawn here? You’ll find an occasional body in pawn from the fifth force.

When you do what you do, it’ll be a different proposition, because it’s monitored by consent. The guys here with a comm line setup, and he’s almost in a state of knowingness concerning exactly where he came from and what he’s doing. It’s a different proposition entirely. You have the difference between a young, ambitious race, you might say, and an old, decayed, caved in race, and the two just don’t mesh. They don’t fight on the same battleground, or anything. So there’s no active concept involved here of battle or action beyond this insidious action through the mind.

But it doesn’t mean that I have let me make my decision very clear that I have any ax to grind with regard to this. I don’t have. I’m not part of this fight. It’s just something that you take a look at, you say, oh no. And then you get interested, and you get rather partisan about the thing. As far as your centers are concerned, it’s the partisan of watching a bright, new operation and watching an old dead operation, watching an awful lot of being seemed terribly unhappy and awfully mucked up and all fouled up like fire drill. For what reason? Weird, beautiful reason, so that a planet which could get along very nicely is running off the rails all the time. Nobody can get anything going. That’s nobody’s supposed to get together and so on.

What benefit is it to anybody? The funny part of it is it has no benefit. It is in the line of a terrible habit, as far as the 4rth force is concerned.

Theta Traps as Booby Traps for Thetans

Now, as you go around, you’ll find there’s machinery stuck out here. Lot of it. Chase your PC around in various directions. The next thing you don’t know, he’s going to say, there’s lines going here, and there’s lines going there, and there’s a big machine sitting over here, and there’s other machines sitting there. Don’t let him monkey with them too much. Those are 4rth invader force machines. This whole area of this end of the galaxy is booby trapped. And those machines are Bearcats, some of them to turn off.

And though they may look like they’re very easy to turn off at something like the picture that Germans used to use this as a booby trap. They put picture a slightly askew over a fireplace or something in a bomb cottage, your own troops had come in, and somebody couldn’t resist straightening up the picture. Of course, it was trapped, and it would blow up and blow everybody up in the room. They had the picture.

Now, actually, you had no great interest in these machines, because they can’t do very much one way or the other. And the truth of the matter was, if you were to hand a map to the fifth Invader of some of these machines which you found, and then suddenly you’d be only too happy to send the cruiser coming in from all one of the map they did take a few mega, mega, mega volts to do very much to these machines.

Now, you’ll find occasionally a sickness will set him on a preclear a very short time after he’s been on one of these excursions. That’s because he’s hit an antipathetic wave, which is great to be in a nice way. So don’t let your preclear sit around and listen to beautiful music or something that’s a theater. Don’t let him go around. He said, Oh, you know, there’s the most gorgeous looking temple, or something like he’s going over there looking at this beautiful temple. And you say, ‘Wait a minute. What’s it look like?’

Oh, it says, gorgeous, the most beautiful architecture.

You say, come on now. And he let me, let me know, come home now.

All of a sudden, you’re free, please, going to be in appetite over tin cup into a theta trap. Theta traps are trapped ordinarily, with esthetics, the other type of trap is a mechanical trap, which has a matching wavelength in its construction. It’s a post or something, and the thetan flows a beam, he just passing through the area. All sudden, something echoes at his wavelength. The next thing you know, he thinks somebody he knows is over there. He goes over to look, and then the second he tries to get off of it, the more energy he puts out, the more active the trap becomes. There’s no energy in the trap, but the energy that fate himself split into. He’ll stay on these things, but God knows how long

Those are types of traps.

As far as the thing being very badly implanted is concerned, how can you implant an energy unit? That’s an interesting question. How can you plant an energy unit? It’s a question which you should be awfully interested Because you can’t. You can give it some ridges, but it can always move out from amongst these ridges.

You have to get it to agree and change its mind about something, and once it’s agreed on something of the sort, why? Then it’s possible for it to be in a state which keeps on holding on to so ridges. So the most important thing you can do with a thing is postulate processing, not ridge throwing around the rest of it.

I’ve said this before. I wish to point it up and punch it up now, postulates, postulates, you can take any preclear you know, and take run from bottom to top of a scale, that scale I gave you many weeks ago, just to change one’s postulates, you keep this up. You just keep this up. You go on this way. You get better better.

But we have in all of these wild pitches, a terrific amount of coversion It is all very covert in all of this overtness toward beings. It has to be because you cannot actually aberrate permanently an energy unit.

You cannot kill it. All you can get it to do is change its mind, that is to say, alter its postulates, its concept of beingness. You can get it to alter its concept of beingness, really. And if you can get it to alter its concept of beingness, then it’ll keep on holding these silly ridges all around itself with facsimiles on them, and the ridges keep going into stimulus response. And because your thetan did not know the mechanism, he actually lacked knowledge of it, he couldn’t beat it. He couldn’t beat this game. So he’d stay at a low level

Now, possessing knowledge of this is not really the same thing as being a theta clear, I wish to impress that point. If you don’t know about this, you don’t know about that, you don’t know about something other. It was not knowing about this and about that and about something or other that made it possible for any of you to be tricked into something in the first place. It’s just not knowing this data which is fascinating to you.

You should say, Yes, you get a guy up to a high state of knowingness, he should know all of this. I refer you to Science for Survival, the theory of enturbulation of theta with MEST. And then it’s disenterbulation gained. That is data of the MEST universe which is being gained. Your potentiality of knowing this goes way high, that this does not mean that data goes that high.
