Clear is a condition of responsibility and ability

"You'll never come along and take the magic syringe, hike up the fellow's sleeve and go pfssst and have a Clear. You can't say to the individual, 'Be three feet back of your ruddy 'ead,' and have a Clear. Because a Clear is not a condition of being out of your head or in your head or in this universe or out of it; it's not a condition of location. It is a condition of responsibility and it's a condition of ability. That's what it's a condition of. …

"But the earliest stages of processing are simply devoted to letting it be found that he has had something to do with his life. And when he is able to recognize that he's had a lot to do with his life, he is then able to move up to a point where he can have some responsibility for his life, and at that time he starts to drop pieces of the GPM. He starts to drop this, that; things start to key out. He does a little bit better and he does a little bit better and he begins to handle his associates, and so forth."

Discovery of the "suppress" button

An article by L. Ron Hubbard
from the Clearing Success Congress lectures


The individual—the individual has a simple, singular, obsessed method of not hurting. And he knows nothing about the mind or anything like that, his method of not hurting is to suppress it. You watch somebody; you watch somebody. I wouldn't say, I wouldn't say you should make a general test on this, but you take a cigarette butt and grind it out in somebody's palm (you start to, you see) and they will immediately grab their hand to stop the pain. I wouldn't make that test if I were you.

The next time you see somebody pick up a hot teakettle, he will go through two actions: He will go this way, and then he will, some way or another, try to hold it still. He will put it in motion and he'll try to hold it still. Maybe he'll do both, you see? Nothing is happening, except you've just got more engram, see?

The point I'm making here is the actual first impulse action when the message known as pain starts creeping its insidious way toward the thetan is for him to say, "No!"

Now, when an individual is in pain, agony, and so forth, he is trying to stop it from hurting. Go around hospitals, and you can always tell which guy hurts, see? He's the one who looks all scrunched up. You could actually walk down a whole series of beds in a hospital and say, "That one is in pain. And that one isn't in pain. And that one's been drugged. And that one's dead and..."

...

Now, the individual in handling pain or mental problems, puts it away. Now, actually, we had it all the time, we've had it in the Axioms. It's the "not-is" axiom, but this is how you express it in English as well as Scientologese. Not-is. He not-ises it, he says it doesn't exist. ...

This button is in common to all. "Well, I'll just forget it. The best way to handle that, I'll just forget him. There is no reason for me to sit here sadly and mope, I will just forget him. Boohoo-hoo," you see? Bing!—and then nothing, nothing, nothing. See? She's got it—got it made. It's the perfect way of becoming miserable.

If you want to have your whole past kick your head off, forget it. That's the best possible way.

Now, this is, by the way, residual in hypnotism. The hypnotist uses this, and of course we don't use any hypnotism in Dianetics or Scientology. But knowledge is knowledge, and the hypnotist knows this very well. He knows how to put a compulsion in on somebody. He tells it to him and then makes him forget it. And then after that, it goes off like an automatic button. So if you want to put a person on total automatic so that he can be restimulated at any time by anything, and so forth, all you have to do is make him suppress.

All right. So this individual is in an automobile accident. Now, if he didn't suppress things, a little while after the accident, this memory of pain would run out, and it'd just flow away. He'd heal up. I mean, we've proven this many times. He'd just heal up in short order. ...

Well, this is because the suppression is off of it. That is the main thing that has happened there—the suppression is gone, that's all.

In other words, this individual would get well if he didn't suppress. He has an accident. During the accident he suppresses everything that's happening, suppresses all the pain that's happening in the accident. And doing so, he, of course, arrests time on the time track—he stops time. He suppresses time as well as anything else, and that, may I call to your attention, is part of the physical universe: matter, energy, space and time. Well, if he's going to suppress matter and energy and other things, he's also going to suppress time. So, he (quote) "stops himself on the time track" and he stops himself right in the accident.

—L. Ron Hubbard

Excerpted from the lecture THE HEALING EFFECT OF PREPARATORY AUDITING (SUPPRESS BUTTON)

This lecture is available in the Clearing Success Congress lectures.

Success from listening to the Congress lectures

"This lecture series is like opening up the core of the reactive bank itself and taking a real close look."

"I've been such an ardent studier of LRH lectures over the years and I was thrilled to get the new Clearing Success Congress as it had a lecture 'Basic Purpose', which I had always wanted to listen to.

"The sound and material are great of course and having all those definitions, colloquialisms, phrases, etc., so thoroughly and meticulously done, right there in the back of the highly portable transcript book for quick and easy access, is definitely key! This factor alone considerably sped up the time it took to get through the materials. These Congresses were obviously designed for maximum quantity and quality of consumption!

"As to the first three lectures including and culminating in 'Basic Purpose', this was just astounding! Here is what I learned: the reactive mind at the most basic level; how LRH unraveled and set forth the tech to clear it away for all time and all people; how to actually stabilize the state of Clear and thus open the door to OT; the major role that responsibility plays in anyone's clearing; how any person's first point of departure from the mad world is realizing he has a hand in his existence; and that Clear is a condition of responsibility and ability! Also how the road to Clear is achieved by an ever increasing gradient of a person's ability to confront and handle his existence, and the incredible role basic purpose has assumed in a person's life, whole track and case.

"Actually, this lecture series is like opening up the core of the reactive bank itself and taking a real close look! It's a very up-front look at the greatest rat-trap ever devised and we all have (or had) one! For sure, after this series you'll definitely have considerably less of one! I felt very fresh, F/Ning and exterior after each lecture! Thank you to COB for this awesome project and of course LRH!" — K.C.

Clearing Success Congress


As a fitting finale to the Scientology Congresses, Ron's last came right from the topmost level.

"But what do you mean, 'True to yourself'? Actually, you are not being true to yourself; you are being true to your basic purpose. If you are not true to your basic purpose, you have had it. And that is what gives a fellow bank."
—L. Ron Hubbard

It was the breakthrough that would lead to the development of the Clearing Course, the Grade Chart and the Organizing Board. It was a discovery that embracive, that basic—because it is Basic Purpose.

As Ron reveals, "Every engram we have explored, every piece of black mass, every ridge, every white-burning fire, every everything that went on in the mind comes about because of a change or alteration in a person's Basic Purpose." And that's just the beginning of what Ron discovered, for when you hear his lecture, Basic Purpose, you'll have a whole new understanding of what "Know Thyself" really means. Yet beyond all this discovery was generating, in terms of faster clearing in greater numbers, there's another reason this was called the Clearing Success Congress. For if you've ever wondered how it all fits together—the technology, the organizations, the combined force of Scientologists, the answers are all here.

From the landmark lecture on the pivotal role of Scientology Organizations in driving planetary clearing, Your Scientology Orgs and What They Do for You, to Ron's exact program on how to make it a reality—World Clearing and You. Here, then, is Ron's final Congress and the road map to a Cleared Planet.

You get 8 lectures on CD with transcripts, glossary and a supplement of related issues from the time period. To aid your study of this series, glossaries at the back of each transcript booklet define the terms used in those lectures. The supplement contains a master glossary and index, covering both lectures and references.
