Instant Read

Definition of Instant Read

1.) That reaction of the needle which occurs at the precise end of any major thought voiced by 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.

2.) If the needle reacts within 1/5 to 1/10 of a second after the question is asked, it is an instant read. This isvalid. If it reacts 1/2 to 1 second after the question, this is invalid. (HCOBHubbard Communications Office Bulletin (technical bulletin) Also colloquially referred to as "red on white" HCOB's are always red ink on white paper. 28 Sept 61)

3.) VALID INSTANT READS ARE SMALL FALLS, FALLS, LONG FALLS, LONG FALL BLOWDOWNS per (HCOBHubbard Communications Office Bulletin (technical bulletin) Also colloquially referred to as "red on white" HCOB's are always red ink on white paper. 27 May 70) NOTE: INSTANT FLOATING NEEDLES, ROCKET READ, SLOWED FALL, AND SPEEDED FALL CAN BE INCLUDED AS LONG AS THEY ARE INSTANT PER DEFINITION ABOVE.

Small Fall

1.) Small fall (sF)- A one quarter to three quarters of an inch drop of the meter2. Hubbard Electrometer. An electronic instrument for measuring mental state and change of state in individuals, as an aid to precision and speed in auditing. The E-meter is not intended or effective for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. (Scn AD)...more needle to the right on the meter2. Hubbard Electrometer. An electronic instrument for measuring mental state and change of state in individuals, as an aid to precision and speed in auditing. The E-meter is not intended or effective for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. (Scn AD)...more dial.

Fall

1.) Fall (F)-A drop of the meter2. Hubbard Electrometer. An electronic instrument for measuring mental state and change of state in individuals, as an aid to precision and speed in auditing. The E-meter is not intended or effective for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. (Scn AD)...more needle to the right, about one to two inches.

Long Fall

1.) Long fall (LF)- A drop of the meter2. Hubbard Electrometer. An electronic instrument for measuring mental state and change of state in individuals, as an aid to precision and speed in auditing. The E-meter is not intended or effective for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. (Scn AD)...more needle to the right, two to three inches.

Long Fall Blowdown

1.) Long fall blowdown (LFBD)- A Long fall followed by a "blowdown" or TATone Arm - 1. meter control lever...MORE motion downward. A "BD" is a Tone Arm motion to the left made to keep the needle on the dial.

Speeded Fall

1.) Speeded Fall (SPF)-A drop of the meter2. Hubbard Electrometer. An electronic instrument for measuring mental state and change of state in individuals, as an aid to precision and speed in auditing. The E-meter is not intended or effective for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. (Scn AD)...more needle to the right, about one to two inches that speeds up in velocity as it progresses.

Slowed fall

1.) Speeded Fall (SPF)-A drop of the meter2. Hubbard Electrometer. An electronic instrument for measuring mental state and change of state in individuals, as an aid to precision and speed in auditing. The E-meter is not intended or effective for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. (Scn AD)...more needle to the right, about one to two inches that slows in velocity as it progresses.

Rise

1.) A rising needle means "no confront." ...Of course a needle must rise at times or the TATone Arm - 1. meter control lever...MORE would never move. But it still means that the pc has struck an area or something he isn't confronting. One never calls his attention to this. But one knows what it is. The rising needle is, therefore, not much employed, but one should recognize one. It is a steady, constant movement of the needle, fast or slow, from right to left. A needle returning to position after a fall is not a rising needle.

Speeded Rise

1.) A rising needle that speeds in velocity as it progresses to the left of set on the meter2. Hubbard Electrometer. An electronic instrument for measuring mental state and change of state in individuals, as an aid to precision and speed in auditing. The E-meter is not intended or effective for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. (Scn AD)...more dial.

Slowed Rise

1.) A rising needle that slows in velocity as it progresses to the left of set on the meter2. Hubbard Electrometer. An electronic instrument for measuring mental state and change of state in individuals, as an aid to precision and speed in auditing. The E-meter is not intended or effective for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. (Scn AD)...more dial.

Rocket Read

1.) A rocket read takes off with a very fast spurt and does a rapid decay, like a bullet fired into water. It always goes to the right. It's very fast. It looks like it got all its motive power from its first instant of impulse with no additional motive power being imparted to it by anything. It's kicked off and it has no further kick so it rapidly dies out.

Floating Needles

1.) This is probably the least understood term and needle action in all of E-Metering. It means the same as a floating needle (F/N), which is a rhythmic sweep of the dial at a slow, even pace of the needle, back and forth, back and forth, without change in the width of the swing except perhaps to widen as the pc gets off the last small bits of 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. Note that it can get so wide that you have to shift the Tone Arm back and forth, back and forth, to keep the needle on the dial, in which casethe whole sum of past by-passed charge. (HCOB 19 Aug 63) you have a Floating Tone Arm.

Man, it's really free.

You'll know one when you see one. They're really pretty startling. The needle just idles around and yawns at your questions on the subject. It can occur after a cognition3. something a pc suddenly understands or feels. “Well, what do you know about that?” (HCOB 25 Feb 60) Abbr. Cog...More, blowdown of the Tone Arm, at a release point, or on the erasure of a Dianetic chain.

Use null as a word, not free, if you're in doubt about it. A null needle just doesn't fall on a question. It might fall on a similar question. A free needle wouldn't fall if the psychiatrists surrendered in a body or the Empire State Building fell down. A free needle or floating needle is one of the parts of the end phenomena for any process or action.

Tight needles (stuck) are far from free. A stuck needle can be made to fall by advancing the sensitivity way up. Thus even a "stuck needle" can be "null." But a free needle is not stuck or null. It just floats around. F/Ns (floating needles) can have different significances and handlings, depending on the type of processing being done.

Types of Floating Needles

Floating Needle Sub Categories

a. INSTANT F/N. This is an F/N which occurs instantly at the end of the major thought voiced by 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 or at the end of the major thought voiced by the pc (when he originates items or tells what the command means). It will most usually be seen as an LFBD F/N or an LF F/N. An instant F/N on an item means 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 has just keyed out on that item, and that it can key back in again. There are actions, as in New Era 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, where a key-out is not what you are going for, so an item giving an instant F/N would be taken up-in fact, it would take precedence over all other reads. There are other actions, such as rudimentsA rudiment is that which is used to get the pc in shape to be audited that session. (SH Spec 147. 6205C17), where a key-out is what you are trying to achieve; an instant F/N on such a question tells 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 "Stop. End of process, end of rudiment, end of action." The key is "Is a handling required on the item or is an F/N the legitimate EPend phenomena: 1. "those indicators in the pc and meter which show that a chain or process is ended." It shows in Dianetics that basic on that chain and flow has been erased, and in Scientology that the pc has been released on that process being run.?" 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 must understand the process he is running and what it is meant to achieve in order to correctly handle the instant F/N.

b. PERSISTENT F/N. This is a big, dial-wide, drifting, floating F/N. It's called that because it can persist. A session that tries to go beyond a persistent F/N only distracts the pc from his win. BIG WIN. Any big win (F/N dialwide, cog, VGls) gives you this kind of persistent F/N. You at least have to let it go until tomorrow and let the pc have his win.

c. AN F/N THAT SPRINGS AT THE END AND DOES NOT FLOW. . A withhold can be partially gotten off and one can get a strange F/N. It is strange because, while it is an F/N, it is less than normal width and has a sort of spring on each end, as though the needle were hitting a spring or cushion. See an F/N that does not flow1. an impulse or direction of energy particles or thought or masses between terminals. (HCOB 3 Feb 69)...more and springs at the end? The subject you are doing a Confessional on is not fully clean.

d. PIN-TO-PIN F/N. This is an F/N so wide it touches the pin1 on either side of the needle movement. In Solo auditingThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor. (Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975), a pin-to-pin F/N means a keyout or no more available to runUndergo processing. (Science of Survival, p.75) just now. This is an important datum that is applicable to any level of Solo auditingThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor. (Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975): Given a properly set sensitivity at session start, do not go past a pin-to-pin FIN. It indicates a win.

e. F/N WITH FALSE TATone Arm - 1. meter control lever...MORE. This is an F/N which occurs outside of the range of 2.0 to 3.0. One must know that it is an F/N by the needle motion and by the pc's indicators and call it, indicate it and put it down on the worksheet. Note the actual TATone Arm - 1. meter control lever...MORE position. Handle the false TATone Arm - 1. meter control lever...MORE at the earliest opportunity when it will not intrude into the current cycle on which the pc is being auditedThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor. (Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975).
