Description

Exhaustion because of contact with people actually necessitates that the "havingness" (another Scientology term for reality) of people has been greatly reduced. One's attention has been fixated upon certain people while is attention, he felt, ought to be on other people, and his straining of attention has actually cut down the number of people that he observes. Fixed attention, then, upon a few people can actually limit the number of people one can "have", which is to say, limits one's reality on people in general.

Commands

There are no set commands. One should go to a place that is very well populated and simply walk along the street, noting people. Simply look at people, that is all.

End Point

This process is run until one feels people aren't so bad and has a much kinder attitude toward them.

Cautions

None

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.
