    THE SCOPE OF SCIENTOLOGY*-AUDITOR S DAY 1991Announcement of a General AmnestyReference: Rons Journal 34The Future of Scientology

    The purpose of Religious Technology Center is to see that Scientology iskept pure and on-source and in this way to keep Scientology working.Scientology works 100 percent of the time, when it is known and appliedwithout alter-is. There has never in our history been a failure of the technologyitself. The only failures have been staff or organizational failures when the technology was not known or applied.It is therefore obvious that the future of Scientology depends on having the

    technology-pure and unadulterated-and seeing that it is applied.Auditor s Day 1991 marks the completion of the Church s largest and mostextensive strategy aimed totally at keeping Scientology working.After 24 January 1986, when LRH departed his body we knew our responsibilities as Scientologists increased tenfold. Our job was to see that Scientologywas kept pure and on-source. All discoveries and developments of DianeticsandScientology were made by one man- L. Ron Hubbard. There never will be a newsource. Our responsibility in this regard was to see that it was kept this way.The need to keep Scientology pure, not just for the present but for futuregenerations to come, became much more real to many of us when we saw anindividual try, in late 1986-early 1987, to take over the subject and set up a

    RTC ED 450 - 3 -By being a standard org and delivering the technology o Dianetics andScientology, churches around the world are improving the environment aroundthem.Over the last four years we have initiated many outreach activities from our

    churches so they are working hand in glove with their local communities to helpsolve the problems which the community leaders don t have the solutions ortechnology to handle.Our programs to unite and lead drug reform and educational groups in thewar on drugs has put us in a position where Scientologists are seen as opinionleaders in this field.Scientology churches are regularly acknowledged for their work in numerousareas, including hundreds o proclamations and recognitions from mayors,police, government agencies and even entire parliamentary bodies.

    SOCIAL BETTERMENTL. Ron Hubbard developed the technology to handle all o the social illscurrently facing this world. While others struggle with the problems o drug addiction and illiteracy and decreasing moral standards and crime, Scientologists andnon-Scientologists alike are applying LRH technology to solve these problems.The Association for Better Living and Education (ABLE) was formed in988 to help promote and expand the organizations which use the technologies oLRH in the secular world. To this end, they have grown enormously and have

    made major strides in handling the problems facing the world using this tech.The organizations which they sponsor and promote are Narconon (drug rehabilitation technology), Applied Scholastics (study technology), Criminon (criminalrehabilitation technology) and The Way to Happiness Foundation (which disseminates and sponsors programs based on the nonreligious, common-sense moralcode by LRH in the book The ay to Happiness .Although these are not religious programs and do not occur in our churchesand missions around the world, they nonetheless are the most successfulprograms o their kind according to numerous independent sources and surveys.And because o their desire to help, churches and individual Scientologistsaround the world largely support these programs on a donation and volunteerbasis.In the last three years, the following major accomplishments have occurred:

    Narconon:- The establishment o one o the largest drug rehabilitation centers in theworld in Chilocco, Oklahoma. When fully renovated this will be the largestdrug rehab center in the world and will also provide the training for staff o

    RTC ED 450 - 14 -. Narconons around the world and for persons opening new Narconons. Thisdrug rehab technology is statistically the most successful in the worldaccording to government surveys.

    - All rehabilitation and training materials for Narconon have been standardized, covering everything from getting the person withdrawn from drugs togetting the person fully rehabilitated and functioning in society as a contributing and ethical citizen.

    - Narconon has been recognized by the Council of Europe and numerousgovernments for its effectiveness, and consequently has received governmental support and referrals for people to do this program. Criminal judgesare now sending drug offenders to Narconon instead of prison as they knowNarconon can truly rehabilitate the individual.Applied Scholastics:

    - Applied Scholastics released a new Basic Study Manual containing LRH sstudy technology which is now being used in the US, England, many countries in Europe, Australia, South Africa, China and even Inner Mongolia.- Currently on production lines and being manufactured are study manuals foryounger students, called Learning How to Learn for ages 6 to 2 and StudySkills or Life for teenagers.- An illustrated new grammar course for children and an illustrated book onhow to use a dictionary for children are currently being manufactured.

    Criminon:- Criminon has been delivering The Way to Happiness Extension Course inprisons across the US. Criminon is regularly written to by prison wardensand parole officers asking for their assistance.he Way to Happiness Foundation:- They have continued to distribute The Way to Happiness around the worldand over 30 million copies are now in circulation in 8 languages in 40different countries.- More than 6,000 schools throughout America are using The ay to Happinessbooklet. Students are learning the precepts in The ay to Happiness and areapplying the precepts not only in their schools but in society. Many of thesesame groups of students are spreading the news of a modern moral code byportraying the precepts in school plays and performing songs straight fromThe ay to Happiness

    Whether The ay to Happiness is being distributed in townships on the vergeof violence in South Africa, or to the Persian Gulf (where tens of thousands

    RTC ED 450 - 19 -WHAT REALLY MATTERS

    You may hear of attacks. And rantings from a mad press. But they never getthe story right. What has really been happening in Scientology is what you haveread here. And THAT is all that matters.We might fight battles or deal with bad press but that has never been andnever will be the game. The only reason these are dealt with and given anyattention at all is so that we can get on with doing our real job, which is settingpeople free.f you wonder why the press only seems to pick up on these war stories andnot what is really going on in Scientology, then you should study up on the subject of Chaos Merchants. The press thrives on controversy and horrifyingnews. It's a way to blackmail the public into buying their papers by makingthings seem so horrible that the man on the street feels he'd better know about itas it may affect his survival. SO THEY THINK. But the man on the streetknows far better and listens to the press less and less each year. That is why yousee the news industry in its worst slump in history. They've gone too far and arenow having to face facts: garbage doesn't sell.

    The external wars must be fought and we will always prevail in the end. But theONLY importance they have is in the context of keeping the auditor in session, andthe pc and pre-OT moving up the Bridge. The application of Scientology is whatreally matters and our ultimate victory will not be won in the courts or in themedia, but in the auditing chair. It is here that the race between man's savageinstincts and the ability of the auditor to bring order and rationality will bedecided. This is THE game we must ultimately win. The only reason we fightthese external wars is to make it possible for this ultimate win to occur. And toput ethics in to the degree necessary so that tech will go in . There is no otherreason.What matters is us doing our jobs inside and outside of our organizations sothat the technology is delivered. Helping more and more people go free andcreating new islands of sanity in a world of chaotic confusion. And spreadingthis sanity to more areas, calming the storm as we go.

    Imagine every Scientologist today trained as an auditor- tens of thousands ofClass IVs, Class Vs Class Vls and Class VIIIs - that much competence, thatmuch knowledge, that much wisdom.There is nothing more important than this for your survival and the survival

    of this planet.FUTUR PLANS

    Scientology will continue marching forward . We march to our own drumsand with great plans for the future.

    RTC ED 450 2A. We are now producing all the material to train staff members on theirjobs so that organizations can give more and better service. Already we haveissued new materials that give staff members the basics for their division (called"Divisional Summaries"), manuals and picture books which illustrate the vital

    functions o an organization, new Staff Status materials and more. Recently, missions completed the export o newly reprinted and computerized routing formswhich lay out the exact routes and steps to give service for every divisional linein an org. Since March 13th this year, several hundred Scientology org executiveshave been burning the midnight oil on the OEC and Flag Executive BriefingCourse at the International Training Org a training college for staff only, locatedin Los Angeles). They are being armed with all o LRH's administrative technologyso that all our church executives are fully trained in all aspects o our organizationand so that you can be safe in the knowledge that your local organization is aHubbard Scientology organization, on-source and standard.B. Now we are assembling staff hatting courses for every single post in aScientology org- over 800 packs in all So whether you are currently one o thededicated staff or plan to join staff, all o the specific material to be trained on forone's post will e there, marking the dawn o a new era o standard Scientologyorganizations.C. We also have the translations o all the material into the remammglanguages o this planet to complete. There are 11 primary languages in whichDianetics and Scientology are already delivered, and they will be getting all theGrade Chart material in their language including the Technical ulletins Volumesand all the books and lectures that are on the Saint Hill Special Briefing Course.

    We have installed new state-of-the-art computerized translation equipment tospeed this project along. Meanwhile, all the basic materials are being translatedinto the 25 most commonly spoken languages on this planet. The only holdup atall in these translation projects is getting enough trained personnel to do the workand to do quality control on the products, as it requires a bilingual Class VIAuditor to verify every translation to assure technical accuracyD. The nine remaining Technical Films, written by LRH, will be comingto your local Academy to demonstrate visually all aspects o TRs and meteringto make better auditors.E. There are 14 never previously released series o LRH's OT lectures whichare on the final audio lines in Golden Era Productions and will soon be available for Scientologists.F. A whole series o books and courses for artists will e released for deliveryby Celebrity Centres. These are courses specifically to help artists apply Scientologydirectly to the arts and improve their own careers.G. There are several new technical rundowns which will be released at the FlagService Org in the near future. Flag is expanding with a 160 thousand square foot

    H. A major program is moving forward to upgrade the premises of everysingle org around the world. The renovations of our complex in Los Angeles andAOSH in Denmark have begun and this will be expanding out to every org in theworld. New premises are being located where needed for orgs in poor locations.Long Island org just moved to bigger and more upstat quarters.

    I We are expanding our dissemination campaigns, not just in the United Statesbut around the world. We are currently completing the construction of a new audiostudio which will increase by 20 times our capacity to produce audio programs (suchas radio programs containing Dianetics and Scientology data, public awarenessprograms and others) to make LRH's technology known around the world.J. A new program is also moving forward to establish and produce routine

    television programs on Dianetics and Scientology to enlighten the general publicon the tech and its application and constantly fill the vacuum with information onwhat Scientology and Scientologists are doing to build a better world. n the nearfuture you will see Dianetics and Scientology TV shows every weekK. We also have 45 more public dissemination films to shoot, including anew film which will be released shortly that introduces and orients all newScientologists to Scientology and our organizations as their FIRST step, beforeever taking their first service.With all of these actions, we will indeed be making many more new Scientology

    organizations and opening hundreds of new Scientology missions and buildingall existing orgs to the size of old Saint Hill.TAKE A WIN

    We have the technology to set man free. It is now in your hands and thehands of millions. We are more popular and well known than we have ever beenand are certainly more respected. We are so much more capable of furtheractivity that we are ready for the big push.The first point of Keeping Scientology Working is now in place. We have thetechnology.The next step is knowing and applying the technology and that is up to you.Every Scientologist must get busy on points 2 through 10 of Keeping ScientologyWorking. This means getting trained on the technology. It means applying whatyou learn. This is the only answer to the problems of the individual and thesociety. There is no more important activity on this planet.This is your planet, too. What you do here and now makes a difference. fthe Scientologist doesn't take responsibility for planet Earth, who will?

    RTC ED 450 - 22 -We have secured a beachhead into society and to move in requires moredelivery. This requires tens of thousands of auditors Case Supervisors CourseSupervisors Word Clearers and other tech-trained Scientologists to expertlyapply the technology.We must follow through and deliver on the hope of a better future that millions have now become aware of.It is not a matter of it being just a nice thing to do. We have a responsibilityto our fellow man to do so. t is the road up and the road out. There is no turningback to a smaller game.Inside or outside the organization you can make a difference. Whether youare a field auditor or you join staff you are part of the team. Our organizationsare your organizations.Our only failures are organizational. We have the technology and it works100 percent of the time. But it has to be applied to get results and that application occurs through the efforts of individuals.f you are already a trained auditor then lend a hand in the most importantand rewarding job there is and join staff in a Scientology organization. f you arenot already trained your help is welcome too.

    Our ultimate success and victory depends upon the support and contributionof individual Scientologists-staff members field auditors FSMs OT Committeesand all those in the field.The future of this planet rests on the strength and reach of our organizationsand most importantly on their delivery of standard tech. Orgs are built ofpeople and the dedication of the individuals in forwarding our organizationalgoals and purposes is what makes us strong. More people more dedication andmore involvement will make us even stronger. There is no other group which hasthe technology to set man free. We are the only ones. And we must live up tothis responsibility.Our progress in the last five years is unparalleled in our history. And ourplans for the future guarantee the same will be true five years from now

    AMNESTYIn order to acknowledge these accomplishments and give every Scientologistthe opportunity to be part of the big push a GENER L MNESTY is herebydeclared.

    n amnesty recognizes triumph and we certainly have a triumph to celebrate.Our focus is on what we do here and now as a group and this amnesty makesit possible for the full team to move forward united with a common purpose.

    RJ 4 - 30 -running dog press and slavish government agencies the forces of evil havelaunched their lies and sought, by whatever twisted means, to check and destroyScientology.

    What is being decided in this arena is whether mankind has a chance to gofree or be smashed and tortured as an abject subject of the power elite.

    The issues are extremely clear-cut, there is no argument there.But what is the result to date of enemy action?HahHonestly, my friends, a review of these battles over the past thirty-two yearsmoves one to contemptuous laughter. The enemy, perched in their trees or swingingby their tails, have been about as effective as one of their psychologist's monkeyspeeling a policeman's club thinking it is a banana and then throwing it only tohit the chief ape in the face.Oh, the furor has been very loud. The AMA, pouring lies into the press throughgnashing teeth persevered for years-and then went bankrupt. The psychiatrist,riding high in 1959, hoping to place one of his ilk in a blackmail position behindevery head of state, hoping to consign any citizen at his whim to a psychiatricSiberia, trying to preserve his right to kill and maim as a profession above thelaw is today a butt of comic strips. And what of the FDA that for fifteen yearssnarled and snapped about the E-Meter? One hardly hears of them today. Andwhat of the mighty Interpol, that tool of CIA? t was found to be a nest of warcriminals hiding out from the law itself.Oh, one could go on but in each case the enemy has gone down to defeat inthe end. You do not hear much about this from the running dog press because, ofcourse, they were the tool of the enemy in the first place.They lose because they traffic in lies. But, because they told their lies sobroadly, even when they were disproven, they still tend to hang around and makeone feel there is-there isn t-an adverse public opinion. The enemy and theirpress are not the public: you could ask yourself why year after year, fewer andfewer people buy and read newspapers: people don't believe them anymore.I once checked, in the 50s the effect on org stats of howling bombasts of arunning dog magazine called TIME Its owner, a man named Luce, was said tobe an LSD addict, both he and his wife carefully controlled by his psychiatrist.Of course he published blasts against anything which would expose his rottencondition. What I found was that not one of those lying bombasts had had theslightest effect upon org stats. Luce is dead now a good testimony to his drugsand the psychiatrists. There are a dozen orgs today for every one that existed inLuce's time.And so it goes with these attacks.

    RJ 34 - 31 -

    Oh, yes, we've had some casualties. Oh, yes, we've had some trouble. Butthat is the way with wars: not only combatants but innocent bystanders can getwounded. That's this universe: we didn't make it that way but that's no reason wecannot, bit by bit, correct it. Certainly, for mankind, there's no escaping it and ifthere is a battle, there is more to do than simply duck one's head: the bombs areno respecters of uniforms or identities.

    It may appear that the enemy suffers no casualties for they hush them up.With no great pleasure, I used to keep a roster of them. Through no will or faultof ours, many of them are dead. Some died from things that we have tech tohelp: it is rather poetic in justice that they were fighting what they themselvescould have used. Many others, when the battle cleared, lost their jobs: and that isa precious thing to a suppressive, his garnered rights to do others in: it is sad tosay there are many in governments who are there just so they can have this right:so when one gets fired for failing in his attacks on us, that's very close to the endof his life. They do not care if you hurt the government or their association ortheir publication: threats against those things are part of their own plans to causetrouble-typical of the insane. Where they can be hurt and practically the onlyplace, is losing their job or position. And their casualties in this respect would fillsome very long bread lines: when they fail, their mentors fire them.

    They have lost power.They have been hurt.And in any contemporary attack, no matter how violent it may seem, the

    result predictably will be the same: failures and casualties in enemy ranks. Notbecause we harm or touch them-we wouldn't. They are mad monkeys and theyblame and shoot each other.Now when you hear of some new attack or an old one, you could get the ideathat we're losing and are likely to winnow away and vanish. The enemy keepssaying that. But just remember a maxim: if the papers say it, it isn't true.Hearing such things, one may think that, as a Scientologist, it doesn't matterwhat you do: it doesn't make any difference now since all is lost. That's silly.In or out of Scientology, one is on these firing lines. The crime-ridden,drug-crazed, misgoverned mess out there which they call civilization is no placeat all to escape to That's surrender.And it DOES matter what one does on post, particularly when the shots areflying hottest. f you think it s bad in a Scientology area, look at Ulster orDetroit And those poor guys are just innocent bystanders being mowed down.At least the Scientologists are DOING something about it. They're handlingpeople, they're making inroads on crime, they're salvaging addicts, they're evenquoted, often unknowingly, by beleaguered business.

    RJ 34 3 -All you have to do is look at where Scientology was in terms of numbers oforgs and missions even a few years back and where it is now to know. All youhave to do is count the additional countries using it year by year. All you have todo is count the memberships of the Churches. And you know conclusively thatwhile the enemy goes down, whatever the bombast, Scientology is going UPt DOES matter what you do on post or in the field or in the world. Thisscene called Scientology is not going to end. Time after time the enemy, in ourblackest hours, has told itself, We've got them now We've stopped themThey're through " They were just praying past their own graveyard. Each time,there we were again, stronger, expanding, working better. And at this verymoment of writing, that's where we are at right now The last enemy attack iswinding down.

    And there we still are all over the world, doing good, getting stronger,getting more numerous.And in the coming decades so it will be again.The guys in the white hats- with the S and Double Triangle-are winning.They are winning because they mean well. They do good. They know theirbusiness. And the enemy is losing and will lose because they mean bad. They doevil. They are incompetent.Remember the principle of Flourish and Prosper. t worksAnd the next time you see an attack, remember the old truth, "This too shallcome to pass away."But not Scientology. We're here and will be here for all the decades andcenturies that this civilization has left to it. And right now I am working on plansso that it will be here even when the madmen, in some possible last convulsion ofevil, have blown this civilization awayWe are saving beings, not men.And the evil die within their own generation.We don't.So the next time you feel blue, read this.The enemy can't even plan for tomorrow.We work in eternity.
