Knowingness is beingness...  
 

"But there have been times in your life when you suddenly looked at something and you knew it. And then maybe a question came into your mind; 'Well, how could I possibly have known it, because I didn't have access to it?' Well, you were it for a moment, so of course you knew it. And the whole business of knowingness is beingness. If you can be something you can certainly know it; if you know something you can certainly be it." —L. Ron Hubbard

Research and Discovery Volume 10Be willing to use your body to its complete endurance by L. Ron Hubbard

"...So you take the value off, this tremendous value that you're putting on the body: 'Must keep my hands clean; must keep my fingernails clean.' Well, you will anyhow. I mean, the higher you get up the tone scale, the cleaner you get anyhow...."

"All right. There is cause, 'to be,' and 'not to be.' The very funny part of this is, you can get into some of its expression simply through action. You can make a decision all of a sudden to be perfectly willing to use your body for anything. The second you do that, you take this tremendous value off the body so that life becomes much less serious. And when life becomes much less serious it becomes much less worrisome, and you become much more able to know, and you're able to think and able to do. So you take the value off, this tremendous value that you're putting on the body: 'Must keep my hands clean; must keep my fingernails clean.' Well, you will anyhow. I mean, the higher you get up the tone scale, the cleaner you get anyhow.

"But if it's a strain to do all this and so forth, you say, 'Oh, I'd never squash a spider with my foot. Huh, a bare foot on a spider?' Well, why? Why? When did your MEST get that valuable? That's a fact.

"Just think of some of the things which you wouldn't even begin to do with this piece of MEST which you have, a human body. Just t hink of it. Every single one of them is an aberration! Heavy."

"Just think of some of the things which you wouldn't even begin to do with this piece of MEST which you have, a human body. Just think of it. Every single one of them is an aberration! Heavy.

"Just practice action!

"Be willing to use your body to its complete endurance.

"Be willing to use it in any direction to accomplish a purpose which you have decided on beforehand. And if you do that, all by itself, you'll come up the tone scale—whsht! And you can go on from there with more processing." —L. Ron Hubbard

From the lecture Decision: Cause and Effect, delivered on 20 May 1952. This lecture can be found in Research and Discovery Volume 10.

 

The story behind LRH's monumental breakthroughs in the 15th Advanced Clinical Course

The year was 1956. Dwight D. Eisenhower had been reelected as President of the U.S., taking Richard Nixon as his vice-president. Senator John F. Kennedy wrote Profiles in Courage, a book which would soon win him a Pulitzer Prize and more. Martin Luther King emerged as leader of the national campaign for desegregation. Atomic testing continued to rain radioactive fallout on the environment. Outside the U.S., Soviet troops stormed into Hungary, imposing mass arrests and martial law, intent on overthrowing the dictator, Batista. In Yugoslavia, the ruined palace of Diocletian, the Roman soldier-emperor who declared himself a god, was found beneath the rubble of sixteen hundred years.

Amidst the turmoil, L. Ron Hubbard resolutely carried on with his studies into the nature of life and man. Ron had spent much of 1956 lecturing, writing, researching and organizing in England and Dublin. He returned to the U.S. in mid-1956, having just written Scientology: The Fundamentals of Thought and having conducted the Hubbard Professional Course in London, personally delivering twenty-one lectures to the students of that class.

Shortly after his return, he held the famous Games Congress at the Shoreham Hotel in Washington, D.C., from 31 August until 2 September, giving thirteen hours of lectures and group processing to the more than four hundred enthusiastic attendees, and laying the groundwork for an exciting new course which he intended to deliver there.

After concluding this spectacularly successful congress, Ron returned briefly to Great Britain, traveling there on the SS Queen Elizabeth. During this ten-day voyage, he not only prepared for the London Congress on Human Problems, which he was en route to present, but also took advantage of this time to write Problems of Work and to further plan the classes he was to teach once back in the U.S.

Almost as soon as the London Congress concluded, Ron flew back to Washington, and a short time later, commenced his new course: The 15th American Advanced Clinical Course.

The 15th ACC began on October the 15th and ran through the 23rd of November. It was held at 1812 18th Street NW, the recently established location of the Washington Organization's Academy, still undergoing renovation during the time of the ACC.

This course was very unique; those eligible to attend were recognized professional Scientologists, already certified as Bachelor of Scientology (or its equivalent abroad, HAA). In addition to the seasoned Scientologists™ who made up that student body of this ACC, the enrollees also include a number of the Founding Church staff, who were given leave from their staff duties to attend.

From the first superb lecture of this ACC through to the last, Ron explored and clarified the basic mechanics upon which life in this universe is based. The fundamental data he gives on confront, simplicities and complexities, creation, the time track and much more, equips one with the wisdom necessary to create desirable changes in the conditions of life and to better operate as an OT, no matter one's case level.

GOOD NEWS!

Right now, the 15th American Advanced Clinical Course (otherwise known as The Power of Simplicity lectures) are available for a specially discounted price.
