The |
Keywords for The Clearing Course (CC)
Warning: These materials are only to be read and used by students ready for the Level. To qualify you have to have attested to Grade 6, R6-EW or above and have done a full Solo Auditors Course.
The subject of The Clearing Course was researched by Ron Hubbard in the 1960s.
The final push was in 1965 and beginning of 1966 where a team of 42 Auditors did
session research of the materials. Findings were tabulated by Mr. Hubbard and
resulted in the techniques and Platens found in this pack. The first Clear
graduated in February 1966. It was a South African top Auditor, John McMasters,
"the world's first Clear".
A full
record of the research leading up to this is part of the Briefing Course and its many taped
lectures. It is however not necessary to know every twist and turn of this
research if one's purpose is simply to understand how this Level is Solo-audited. This
keywords glossary should give you a sound foundation for your practical
understanding and application. A more complete glossary exists for
reference.
CC: Stands for Clearing Course. It refers to the materials on this Level and also the auditing action described here leading to the State of Clear.
A problem with two
opposing |
PROBLEM:
1. Anything
that has opposing sides of equal force, especially postulate-counter-postulate,
intention-counter-intention or idea-counter-idea.
2.
It is an intention-counter-intention that worries the Preclear.
GOAL:
A long time effort to reach a certain end result. This end result can be a
beingness, doingness or havingness. Example of a beingness: to become the leader
or top figure of something. Doingness: To become the best (most skillful) chess
player I can be. Havingness: To own a million dollars of property.
Over time the PC has pursued many
different Goals. Some of these major Goals (one at a time) defined the Beings
livingness; his beingness, doingness and havingness. To succeed the Being had to
overcome obstacles and opposition.
Any such Goal will have a long series of Engrams, Overts and Withholds, etc. connected to it. If we have the Goal 'To reach the
North Pole by dog sledge' (just an example) you can imagine the troubles and hardships the person
had to endure to succeed. Injury, freezing, exhaustion, starvation, fighting
polar bears, causing
death of other expedition members, etc. They all formed Engrams, Overts, Withholds,
etc.
WHOLE TRACK:
1. The Whole Track is the moment to moment record of a person’s existence
in this universe in picture form. Also called the Time-track.
A GPM builds up over
many lifetimes. |
GPM ( GOALS PROBLEM MASS ):
1. A GPM is composed of mental masses and
significances which have the same general pattern from person to person. The significances and masses in GPMs dictate certain types of aberrated attitudes and behaviors, pains, sicknesses, feelings of heaviness, tiredness, and other undesirable things. The
significances are usually behind aberrated behavior; the masses, when pulled in
on the individual, are more likely to cause psychosomatic illnesses, pains or feelings of heaviness
and tiredness.
2. A mental energy-mass (or ridge) in the Preclears mind. It came about as a result of a series of long range Goals the Preclear pursued over many lifetimes - one at the time. Each built up mass due to opposition from others and ensuing Engrams, Overts, Withholds, etc. - as explained under 'Goals' above. A Goal is pursued for many, many years and builds up mass. It's what defines the persons beingness, doingness and havingness at the time. The conflict between this Goal and the opposition it faces and continuously has to fight is the basis of the GPM. A new version of that Goal and its opposition adds a new Pair to that GPM. Each Pair is in other words a recorded "eternal conflict". A GPM that comes about this way (as a result of living) is called an Actual GPM.
3. The GPM is a problem created by two or more
opposing ideas. They confront or oppose each other in a balanced way. This
unresolved conflict of ideas or Goals results in a mental mass. A GPM is a
mental energy mass.
4. Ron Hubbard explains the basic mechanism this way: "If you took two fire hoses and
pointed them at each other, their streams would not reach each other’s
nozzles, but would splatter against one another in midair. If this splatter were
to hang there, it would be a ball of messed up water. Call hose A the force the PC
has used to execute his Goal. Call hose B the force other dynamics have used
to oppose that Goal. Where these two forces have perpetually met, a mental mass
is created.
This is the picture of any problem - force opposing force with resultant mass.
Where the PC’s Goal meets constant opposition, you have in the Reactive Mind
the resultant mass caused by the two forces: GOAL = force of getting it done,
OPPOSITION = force opposing it getting done. This is the Goal Problem
Mass." (excerpt from taped lecture).
IMPLANT:
1. An Implant is an intentional action of overwhelming the Being (Thetan) with an idea, Goal or other significance. The overwhelm can be done by
various means, including use of drugs. The most common method of
overwhelm on the Time-track applies some kind of electronics or electro-chock.
The Implant is a way to install a fixed idea in a Thetan's mind by artificial
means. It is done in an attempt to gain control over that Being's behavior.
2. An Implant is shocking someone with an electric shock and saying something at the same time. Also it could be making a loud noise and at the same time saying something, doing this on a patterned basis.
IMPLANT GOAL:
A Goal given as an Implant. It starts with
"to" and then it has a verb (Root-word) and then it has an End-word. A Goal could
be: "to catch cats". "To catch" would be the root, and
"cats" the End-word.
IMPLANT GOALS-PROBLEM-MASS (IMPLANT GPM):
An Implant GPM is a GPM made up
of Goals (and their opposing Goals) which are not the Preclears own but have been implanted.
Each Goal, in other words, is not a
self-determined decision and course of action in life but simply an Implant.
An Implant GPM derives its power over the Preclear from the Actual GPMs.
They are implanted Locks, you could say; a synthetic GPM that derives its aberrative power
from the Actual GPMs. They are implanted maliciously to confuse, entrap and
reduce the power of a Thetan. They are designed by the implanters to enforce obedience to certain behavior patterns.
CLEARING COURSE IMPLANTS (CC Implants):
A
series of Implants given to all Thetans in this part of the
universe. They are addressed through auditing on the Clearing Course, where
they step by step are erased. Full erasure of the CC Implants results in the
state of Clear.
PLATEN:
A Platen on the Clearing Course is a map that gives the content and sequence of one
Implant. There are five Implants and five Platens that make up the CC Level. One line on a
Platen is usually considered as one Item.
ITEM:
On CC it simply means a line from an Implant Platen.
REPEATER TECHNIQUE:
The basic technique used in auditing out the CC Implants. The Solo-auditor will
take up one Item at the time from the Platen. It can be an Implant Goal, an End-word
by itself or a visual Implant. Each Implant Goal (or End-word) is repeated
out loud many times.
They will read on the Meter. Gradually the charge will get flattened (much like
flattening a Button when doing bull-baiting on TR-0). A visual Implant is run
like a little incident many times over until the content is flattened by Meter read or it is simply confronted or "spotted" repeatedly.
When a particular Item no longer produces any Meter reaction the Solo-auditor
moves on to the next Item.
DICHOTOMY:
1. can-can't is the plus and
minus aspect of all thought. It is called a Dichotomy with a specialized word. 2.
a pair of opposites, such as black-white, good-evil,
love-hate.
2. A Dichotomy in relation to GPMs means plus and minus. A plus word and a minus
word.
Each major idea has two parts: a PLUS and a MINUS. These are opposed to each
other.
The two sides are of the same order of things. They always belong to the same overall
group or subject.
Plus and minus form a current between them as you will find in an electrical
battery.
They interchange current. They are in conflict. What is generally agreed to be
the unwanted or poor side is minus. What is generally conceived to be all right
is plus.
Example: we have the major idea that an individual has a financial status.
Wealth is the PLUS and Poverty is the MINUS.
So a DICHOTOMY means two parts of a major idea.
We have two opposites in active conflict with each other.
A Dichotomy consists

END-WORD:
1. See also Implant Goal.
2. An End-word is a noun or a condition made into a noun.
It's the final word of a Goal.
3. The End-word is the common denominator to the whole of a GPM.
All the Goals in one GPM have one thing in common: the End-word in these Goals
are one and the same. If the End-word is 'Cats' the Goals could be: 'to breed
cats', 'to catch cats', 'to kill cats', 'to please cats' and so on. The common
denominator is simply the End-word, 'Cats'. So we have a series of Goals related
to the End-word 'Cats' and this End-word is the common denominator that holds
the GPM together in the Bank.
A Pair inside the
'Goodness GPM'. |
PART:
There are five different Implants in CC.
They are labeled:
Part A, B, C, D, and E.
PART A: is called The Sevens
PART B: is called Basic End-words
PART C: is called The Confusion GPM
PART D: is called Objects, Hollow
PART E: is called Objects, Solid
RUN: One Run consists of all the Parts A-E. The A-E series is repeated ten times. Each of these ten times is called a Run. So we have Run One as the earliest occurrence of Implant A-E and Run Ten as the last occurrence of these five Parts.
CHAIN:
1. A series of recordings of similar experiences. A chain has Engrams,
Secondaries and Locks.
2. Incidents of similar nature strung out in time. 3. A series of incidents
of similar nature or subject matter.
ENTITIES:
The basic definition of "entity" in the dictionary
is:
"Something that has a real and separate existence either actually or in the
mind; a Being or existence which is considered distinct and self contained."
There are various types of entities described in Ron Hubbard's
technology.
Cells. For example, a cell is a living organism all by itself.
Genetic Entity (also called the somatic mind). There is the Genetic
Entity ("GE") which is the entity that carries forward from the earliest formation of the
MEST body. It takes care of the body and its automatic functions.
Synthetic entities. There can be injected entities or synthetic entities. Some of these are ridges
on which facsimiles are planted.
Each one of those things can be a thinking entity.
It thinks it is alive. It can think it's a Being, as long as energy is fed to it.
These follow all the rules, laws and phenomena of single Beings. The full
subject of entities is not taken up in this glossary. However, for an understanding of
the data on entities as contained in the technology, one must first
have a good understanding of these basic definitions.
