Interesting how I've been a Scientologist and I've been around it for years and yet people who aren't active in Scientology at all know more about Xenu and OTIII than I will till I'm OTIII.
But as far as the evidence goes, I'm hesitant to explain it to you. One really can't "hear evidence", one has to experience, which makes it evidence, right?
I don't really think you know me well enough to believe a word I say anyways, but I'll give it a shot. What the hell.
I've taken two of the main, basic courses on Dianetics. It took me about 6-8 months over a year ago. I've delivered Dianetics - or Audited- many people. To audit means to listen.
While Auditing I've seen some wild things.
In Dianetics, you're trained to know the difference between imagination and an actual engram, because with an imagined incident, they talk about it, but nothing changes.
They don't get sadder or happier, they show no physical signs that anything's happening to them. The engram doesn't restimulate, pains don't turn on.. nothing happens.
When they run an actual engram, the pains turn on, they show the emotional content of the engram as if they're there, experiencing it.
The process is re-experiencing the engram until it alleviates. The alleviation of the engram is accompanied by the feeling of relief, which is usually shown with happy tears and laughter.
An engram is done being run when all aspects of it have been properly analyzed like I explained earlier. It's been analytically experienced and so has no force with you, reactively.
I've never seen happier people than the ones who received auditing. They've got a sense of relief.. things are no longer burdening them. Sometimes they'll recall something they never knew actually happened, and at least twice called their parents to confirm what we went over. lol..
I've had one adult woman discover that as a toddler she stepped in fire.. One man ran the engram of his own birth. He didn't know he was born at home, nor that his Aunt was there to clean him when he was born. The look on his face as he was re-experiencing the first time he laid on his mother's chest was... amazing. I can't even explain it to you.
Not every auditing session is miraculous.. I've had people go over minor arguments, a sister's death, these sorts of things.. and I've done all this without the use of an e-meter.
EMeters make Auditing extremely accurate. While holding the "cans", the meter registers when you've got "charge" - an area of emotional or physical stress occassioned by an engram.
The auditor for example might ask the person to recall an incident. The person gets a flash but doesn't really think much of it. The auditor sees this on the EMeter and says "Allright. What was that?"
The pre-clear says "What? That? Oh, nothing." But upon inspection it will be charge. The pre-clear might not have even known much of what happened in the incident until it's recovered, and it will release charge.
Seeing charge released is nothing short of proof to me.. and I've seen it so many times.
When the charge is released, if auditor asks the person to recall the incident again, the emeter doesn't dip and sway as it would with charge, and this is called a Floating Needle.
You'll go to a church and receive a pinch test.
You get pinched, and the EMeter dips.
The auditor asks you to recall the pain, and it dips.
He asks you again, and it dips slightly less.
The pain begins to dissipate each time he asks you again, and the needle dips less.
After 3-6 times, the pain is totally gone and the needle stops moving.
It's practically impossible to audit yourself. An Auditor uses his skill to work you through the incident where as by one's self, one will stall. Specific words in an incident may even "bounce" you out of it.. This is something Auditors are trained to handle.
In addition to Auditing, I give you something you can try for yourself, any time you like.
If the situation arises where you receive a pain such as.. stubbing your toe.
The pain of a stubbed toe tends to linger. As long as you didn't break it, which is call for medical attention, this pain can be relieved extremely easily.
Locate the thing you stubbed your toe on.
Gently touch the spot of your toe which you stubbed, to the exact spot on the thing you stubbed your toe on.
This is approximating the engram.
Linger for a second and repeat.
Soon it will restimulate, and you'll feel almost as if you've done it again.
A few times and this pain is gone.
This is an almost useless example, but it's something people don't generally know. It applies to all engrams. After medical treatment, Scientology assists, such as this Contact Assist, greatly increase the speed of recovery.
There are several Assists which alleviate illnesses like colds, or can calm down a person in a rage, or make a drunk sober. They can pull someone out of shock and back into present time.
I haven't experienced all there is to experience in Scientology, but what I've seen is dead-on proof that it works.
People talk about how nuts Ron is or that we believe in aliens and whatnot, and yeah it bothers me. And then I think to myself of all the things I can actually accomplish with Scientology.. the things that actually matter, and I feel better.
I'll stop now, because 10101110 is right.
Any more questions, you can PM me.
As long as the discussion remains mostly civil like this one, I'll answer any question to the best of my ability.
I want people to understand Scientology, not as a sci-fi cult like it's portrayed, but as an actual applied religious philosophy, as it's taught.
I enjoyed the conversation, mqarcus.
