Present Time Body Orientation

References

Journal of Scientology, early November 1952, "Procedures for Theta Clearing"

Description

This is a process to orient the person to present time by having him locate a part of his body and recognize it as such. Have him locate furniture, fixtures, processor in the room. Have him locate the town and country he is in. Get him to find something in present time which is really real to him, with which he can communicate. Work on this until he can do this.

Commands

Step 1: "Find your (body part)." "Thank you." "Is that your (body part)?" This part is run until the person is doing it easily.

Step 2: "Find the (object)." Processor names furniture, fixtures, other objects in the room, as well as himself as the processor. This part is run until the person is doing it easily.

Step 3: "What town (or city) are you in?" "Thank you." "What state are you in?" "Thank you. "What country are you in?" "Thank you." This part is run until the person has located himself with certainty.

Step 4: "Look around here and find something which is really real to you, with which you can communicate." "Thank you." Run this part until the person is doing it easily.

End Point

The person more in present time.

These objective assist processes are excerpted and compiled from the works of L. Ron Hubbard as part of a study of the Briefing Course materials. They are made available here for the purpose of discussion on spirit-l. Spirit-l is a list intended for the discussion of the philosophical underpinnings of clearing philosophies and methods. Frequent topics include self-betterment processes that can be done alone or in a coprocessing setting. There are "fair use" considerations as the works these quotations are taken from are copyrighted. The actual owner of the copyrights seems to be in question, but it most certainly is not I. Therefore, these fair use excerpts are available for Spirit-l list subscribers to prepare for, and participate in, the on-line discussion. It is also for others who, although unable to participate in the discussion of Hubbard's work at this time (perhaps lacking email access or available time), would like to prepare for such discussion on the above thread topics in the future. Just as one can copy a chapter out of a book to teach a class, and even a whole book using a chapter for each class, separate supplementary manuals will facilitate the different on-line discussion topics.
