Auditing Self Analysis, Theory

SELF ANALYSIS (SA) LISTS

(quoted from Filbert's 'Excalibur')

On each line of each of the following lists you add the phrase "Paying particular attention to_________". In the blank you place a perceptic.

The perceptics are: sight
smell
touch
color
external
motion
emotion
loudness
body position
sound
weight

You should change the perceptic each time you ask a new recall question, but not in asking for an earlier recall.

Each line out of each list, with the perceptic selected, is put to the preclear only once, with the following 3 commands in this order:

A. "Paying particular attention to__________, recall a time when " (you continue the question with the line)
B. "Paying particular attention to__________, recall another time when " (put in same line)
C. "Paying particular attention to__________, recall the earliest time you can when " (same line)"

You Run each List to EP (FN, VGIs, Cog, Vivid Recall,
that perceptic turned on full.)

It usually runs pretty quick. Thus we enclose shortened versions of the lists, as usually it EP's even before half of the included questions are run. You will find additional questions in Ron Hubbard's book: Self Analysis. If you were to run these and not get an EP, your pc probably should not be on SA lists. Something like life rudiments, or the 53 form needs to be run instead. As the book is included as course materials, the lists are just included here as an easy reference that can be printed out.
