Scientology's Role in Society
are their own subjects and there are no real comparisons to them. They deal with the reactive mind1. a portion of a person's mind which works on a totally stimulus-response basis, which is not under his volitional control, and which exerts force and the power of command over his awareness, purposes, thoughts, body and actions. Stored in the reactive mind are engrams, and here we find the single source of aberrations and psychosomatic ills. (Scn 0-8, p. 11)...MORE and the abilities of the being. They have precise techniques to handle various life situations and what you might call ailments of spiritual beings.
Having a great deal of certainty about what Dianetics1. DIA (Greek) through, NOUS (Greek) mind, deals with a system of mental image pictures in relation to psychic (spiritual) trauma. The mental image pictures are believed on the basis of personal revelation to be comprising mental activity created and formed by the spirit, and not by the body or brain. (BPL 24 Sept 73 V) 2. Dn addresses the body. Thus Dn is used to knock out and erase illnesses, unwanted sensations, misemotion, somatics, pain, etc. Dn came before Scn. It disposed of body illness and the difficulties a thetan was having with his body. (HCOB 22 Apr 69)...more and Scientology can do to help people, does not mean it's the only thing or group that is dedicated to improving life and the world around us.
We know that the vast and overwhelming majority of people and beings are social personalities. Only a small small percentage are working to cause harm.
Unfortunately, that small percentage can be very clever at creating conflict and are skilled at getting the majority of good guys to battle amongst themselves.
Our role, I think, is to make allies and friends amongst the world's great innovators and entrepreneurs in the field of social betterment.
We are not in opposition to anyone trying to help mankind straighten out this cockeyed planet.
We should be offering our assistance to betterment activities and not putting ourselves in an opposing position. That only plays into the hands of those who benefit and profit from conflict and strife.
We have a lot to offer. We should never minimize or devaluate the knowledge and skills we have.
If we offer assistance with humility rather than arrogance, I think we will find many who are eager to welcome our contributions.
A new civilization will not come about via individuated pockets of well-meaning people in conflict with each other.
That's the old game.
We need a new game.comments
