The "S & DSearch and Discovery - One lists for persons or groups who are or have suppressed the pc. The list is complete when only one item reads on nulling and this is the item...More" process is an important scientological procedure which addresses an individual's particular vulnerability to another's malicious or supposedly malicious intentions. It is indicated when a participant repeatedly loses the acknowledged gains they have already had from processing, or behaves in a highly unreliable manner. ("S & DSearch and Discovery - One lists for persons or groups who are or have suppressed the pc. The list is complete when only one item reads on nulling and this is the item...More," stands for "search and discoveryOne lists for persons or groups who are or have suppressed the pc. The list is complete when only one item reads on nulling and this is the item...More ''abbr'' S&D")
This is the story of the development of that procedure, with some profound insights, by John McMaster, and is reprinted from The Heretic, Issue X. (See "Bon Voyage to John McMaster" in the Free Spirit 90.) - Hank Levin:[1]
I would like to discuss the development of S & DSearch and Discovery - One lists for persons or groups who are or have suppressed the pc. The list is complete when only one item reads on nulling and this is the item...More for the implications it had in the subsequent development of scientology technologyThe methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) ''Abbr.'' tech. Had it not been designed the way it was, things might have gone a little differently.
Late summer, 1965. The mesage read: "Ron wants you to bring six of your best review auditors to his office at quarter past five today, and would you get it all organized?" When we were all there, he said that he'd gotten us there for a specific reason, and the reason was to evolve a particular process which he wanted to call "Search and Discovery."
Now, in the processing that we were doing then, which was mainly the power processesthe processes audited only by Class VII auditors which make Grade V Power Releases. (Scn AD) and power plus, we were getting some cases moving magnificently fast, others sort of medium, and some cases moving very slowly.
He said that there must be some factor that was sort of impinging on these cases that were moving slowly, and this process was to be called Search and Discovery simply because it was to search for that which was impinging on the slow gain casethe whole sum of past by-passed charge. (HCOB 19 Aug 63) and the no casethe whole sum of past by-passed charge. (HCOB 19 Aug 63) gain, to search for that and then discover it.
And he wanted us to evolve a technologyThe methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) ''Abbr.'' tech whereby this could be done effectively.
We got together and decided that it would be a good idea to have a listing process to start off with on the search side of it, and then we would discover an item.
We decided the listing question would be something along the lines of "Who or what is causing difficulty?"
We made a list and then we'd get whatever the item was, and then put the item into a Represent ("Who or what would item represent?"), and then list away. If the item on the first list had been a person, one blew-v. ''Slang'' unauthorized departure from an area. (HCOB 19 Jun 71 II) the charge1. harmful energy or force accumulated and stored within the reactive mind, resulting from the conflicts and unpleasant experiences that a person has had. Auditing discharges this charge so that it is no longer there to affect the individual. (Scn AD)..more off that person by getting the Represent out of it.
And on this "Who or what would item represent?" the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) invariably found a "What" in relation to his own behaviour or his own conditions of existence that got restimulated by the actions of the other person and caused what appeared to be the symptoms of a "Potential Trouble Source1. a person or preclear who “roller-coasters,” i.e., gets better, then worse. This occurs only when his connection to a suppressive person or group is unhandled and he must, in order to make his gains from Scn permanent, receive processing intended to handle such...More," as it was later called.
It was something that the person had in his own makeup, his own behaviour pattern, his own mental mass, that had a sort of magnetism for the behaviour of a certain person.
The other person did something, and this particular thing, in the whole pattern of the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63), would cause an upset and prevent the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) from looking as clearly as he or she might look, from wanting to win, from doing whatever one was expecting the person to do.
So we ran this listing process and the represent process, and we got what we got, and took the results to Hubbard. And as I said, invariably it was a "What". And you can't declare a "What" that exists in the magnetic field of the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) to be a suppressive person.
There was a tremendous improvement in the PCs because they found out that in actual fact, when they were so-called "being the effect" or "being suppressed" by someone else, it was because of themselves and something that they had that had compelled them to become the effect of the other person's behaviour.
But there was another thing some of them found out. Some people found out that in their behaviour patterns they did things and behaved in such a way that they compelled the other person to commit suppressive acts towards them.
For instance, here's me. And, not during the auditingThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor. (Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975) session but in my everyday life, I am doing something with a regularity that compels another, who also has something in his magnetic field that my behaviour restimulates, to be suppressive towards me, and I am in actual fact causing it.
So there were two aspects that people began to find in this auditingThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor. (Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975):
1) they had something in their own space that got restimulated by another person's behaviour, and when they found that and blew-v. ''Slang'' unauthorized departure from an area. (HCOB 19 Jun 71 II) it, they no longer were the effect of that person's behaviour; and
2) they were unknowingly doing something that was compelling the other person to act suppressively towards them.
And everyone runUndergo processing. (Science of Survival, p.75) on this process, with the listing and the represent, had far more casethe whole sum of past by-passed charge. (HCOB 19 Aug 63) gain than is gotten from running up to the ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO) officer and disconnecting from a so called suppressive person.
We were really thrilled, because these people, immediately after having had this kind of S & DSearch and Discovery - One lists for persons or groups who are or have suppressed the pc. The list is complete when only one item reads on nulling and this is the item...More process runUndergo processing. (Science of Survival, p.75) on them, moved magnificently on the power processesthe processes audited only by Class VII auditors which make Grade V Power Releases. (Scn AD).
We took the results to Hubbard, and he kind of hemmed and hawed and told us it was a little bit long-winded and we could do it faster another way. Eventually he changed the thing down to: "Who is suppressing you?", and it had to be a person. And when that person was spotted, the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) had to go to the ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO) officer with the folder.
The ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO) officer then had to find out whether the person would "handle or disconnect", and in most cases the ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO) officer decided of his or her volition that the person was incapable of handling and compelled the person to disconnect.
Now if you look at the history of Scientology from that point onward, late summer-autumn of 1965, what was happening?
Suppressive people were becoming a reality and the ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO) officer was becoming an absolute necessity in any organization in order to safeguard your technologyThe methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) ''Abbr.'' tech.
Well, nothing can safeguard technologyThe methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) ''Abbr.'' tech better than perfect auditingThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor. (Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975). If you take the process and auditThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor. (Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975) it perfectly, your technologyThe methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) ''Abbr.'' tech is established.
Having this via of darting around the corner to the ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO) officer just gives the auditor1. one who listens and computes; a Scn practitioner. 2. one who has been trained in the technology of Scn. An auditor applies standard technology to preclears. 3. a person who through church training becomes skilled in the successful application of Dn and Scn to his family, friends and the public to achieve the ability gained as stated on the Gradation Chart for his class of training...more an out. If he can't quite manage the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) or he can't quite manage the process, or he can!t quite manage putting the two together, he always knows he can say "Well it's OK; if I can't quite manage this then it'll become an ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO) matter."
When a person was not moving as quickly as the person ought to be moving, they then had to have this S & DSearch and Discovery - One lists for persons or groups who are or have suppressed the pc. The list is complete when only one item reads on nulling and this is the item...More process, and then automatically it went onto ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO) lines.
So then standard technologyThe methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) ''Abbr.'' tech was very much involved with ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO); you couldn't have standard technologyThe methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) ''Abbr.'' tech without an ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO) officer to handle these particular situations. So the suppressive person became a reality and the ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO) officer became an absolute necessity in order to have the techAbbreviation for technology. The methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) working and standard.
So now the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) disconnects from this "Who" the ethics1. The rules or standards governing the conduct of the members of a profession. (HCO PL 3 May 72). 2. A system of removing the counter-effort to the forward push. (6711C18SO) officer regards as a suppressive person, and yet still intact is the "What" that predisposed the suppression in the first place. So the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) is still vulnerable to suppression.
He disconnects, has a bit of relief, and maybe until the end of that auditingThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor. (Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975) intensive the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) is free from the impact of the other. But within the makeup of the person, that which predisposes the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) to being suppressed is untouched.
And the overtAn intentionally committed harmful act committed in an effort to resolve a problem. (SH Spec 44. 6410C27) act of disconnecting from another, blaming another for one's own inadequacy, and the fact that one has this predisposition towards suppression, compounds the felony.
The felony of whatever one has done that makes one vulnerable or predisposed is still there, and that is compounded by the disconnection, which creates a heavy ARC1. a word from the initial letters of Affinity, Reality, Communication which together equate to Understanding. It is pronounced by stating its letters, A-R- C. To Scientologists it has come to mean good feeling, love or friendliness, such as “He was in ARC with his friend.” One does not, however, fall out of ARC, he has an ARC break. (LRH Def. Notes)...more break perhaps not only with the person being disconnected from, but with all the people to whom that person is connected.
So now you have the compounded felony. That thing which had come into re-stimulation in the auditingThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor. (Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975) that should have been runUndergo processing. (Science of Survival, p.75) out right there and then, is now being covered over by another overtAn intentionally committed harmful act committed in an effort to resolve a problem. (SH Spec 44. 6410C27) act, the act of disconnection. And what does that do? It causes the prolongation of that conditionA condition is an operating state. (SH Spec 62, 6505C25) which predisposed the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) to suppression in the first place.
S & DSearch and Discovery - One lists for persons or groups who are or have suppressed the pc. The list is complete when only one item reads on nulling and this is the item...More's, such as they are runUndergo processing. (Science of Survival, p.75) now, do not give permanent relief or release from anything. What they do is prolong the agony of potential suppression. So far from setting a person freer, they are in actual fact burying,and therefore prolonging the conditionA condition is an operating state. (SH Spec 62, 6505C25) that predisposes and precipitates the suppression.
This "standard technologyThe methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65) ''Abbr.'' tech" is in actual fact ruining the whole potential of our aims and goals and purposes, because it is pressing out of sight that which we were fortunate enough to have surface, that thing that is predisposing the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) to feeling suppressed.
It is a very healthy sign when someone you are auditingThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor. (Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975) suddenly has problems. So they say they're not making gains. So what? This indicates to you that something is in re-stimulation that prevents them from making gains and achieving their goals. This means you've got something right there and then, right at the surface, ready to be handled.
So you can do an S & DSearch and Discovery - One lists for persons or groups who are or have suppressed the pc. The list is complete when only one item reads on nulling and this is the item...More, but I suggest that you do it the way we did it originally, before it was changed to a "Who?" You might get this thing which has come into re-stimulation on the first listing, in which casethe whole sum of past by-passed charge. (HCOB 19 Aug 63) it's gone. If you have to put it into a Represent list, well, you'll get a whole lot there.
Now, I didn't do this at the time, but it seems to me that you could then put in a third question if you do a represent out to another item and you still haven't blown everything.
You could say, "Now, how do you use so-and-so to make yourself vulnerable to suppression?", or a question of that nature. Then you have removed the predisposition to the suppression because that which was in the magnetic field of the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) that enabled the suppression to happen will never be there again, unless the PC1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear. (HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) puts it back. But it won't be the same one; it'll be another one.
So I hope this sheds a little light on the way and S & DSearch and Discovery - One lists for persons or groups who are or have suppressed the pc. The list is complete when only one item reads on nulling and this is the item...More could be runUndergo processing. (Science of Survival, p.75) that could give gain for all time, rather than this temporary relief by committing an overtAn intentionally committed harmful act committed in an effort to resolve a problem. (SH Spec 44. 6410C27) act on a fellow being on this planet at the same time as one is. It's not always such; sometimes one disconnects from people out of another time.
However, this is just a vast Q & A1. means “Question and Answer.” When the term Q and A is used it means one did not get an answer to his question. It also means not getting compliance with an order but accepting something else. Example: Auditor, “Do birds fly?” Pc, “I don’t like birds.” Auditor, “What don’t you like about birds?” Flunk. It’s a Q and A. The right reply would be an answer to the question asked and the right action would be to get the original question answered. (HCOB 5 Dec 73) with reality. The reality is that somewhere in one's makeup is this predisposition to be suppressed, and when it is precipitated one behaves like a potential trouble source. So, get out what's in re-stimulation and remove completely and forever the chances of being suppressed in that particular way.
That is how we started out on Search and Discovery, and how I feel it could be done even now. It's not too late, for Heaven's sake! And we could get in, and do the job properly.
