Being aware of what one is willing to confront…

"Confrontingness is awareness. One can be aware—this is the eight-billion-seven-hundred-and-sixty-two-dollar question answered—one can be aware only of that which they are in some way willing to confront. Some willingness to confront is necessary for the phenomenon known as awareness.

"One can be aware of those things which he is willing in some way to confront. One, if he is willing—even to some slight degree—willing to confront something, he can become aware of it; but if he cannot confront it and will not confront it and has an idea that he must not confront it, it after a while disappears entirely from view and he is no longer able to be aware of it. And in that is contained IQ, ability, talent and all other such factors.
...

"I'm sorry if it reduces to a simplicity of this character. I realize it robs you of a game. I realize, definitely, that it completely spoils a lot of excuses."

L. Ron Hubbard

Confronting the subject of money

An article by
L. Ron Hubbard
excerpted from the Washington Congress on Anti-Radiation & Confront lectures


Very interesting how handy excuses are in living. They do play a part of living — they're very handy. For instance, every once in a while we've run into our parents saying, "I can't afford this and I can't afford that, and can't give you this and I can't give you that." When we were little kids, you know, the old man would say, "Well, I just can't afford that. You're just costing me a fortune," and so forth. "You're always after me for some money," something like this.

Of course, the obvious answer that I thought of years too late was "What's the matter with you that you don't get out and make more money?" The obvious thing to tell a parent: "What's the matter with you that you're only making that much money?" It's completely an overwhelming statement, isn't it? Yeah, what is the matter with him? More money's needed in the family, why isn't he making more? Simple, direct — that's that! That would really take these guys aback.

Well, they aren't making money, maybe, because they're unwilling to confront it. They're not very aware of it. Maybe they make as much money as they're aware of or can be aware of, or as willing to be aware of. They conceive something terrible in having to be aware of a billion dollars. There's something very reprehensible in being aware of that much money.

And you start testing people's havingness on money, most of the preclears you pull in off the street actually couldn't have more than two or three cents. That's right. That's the amount of money that they could be aware of, the amount of money that they could confront.

What's dangerous about money? Well, let me tell you, on the whole track there's been lots of things dangerous about money. You had a faithful slave whose acceptance level in money was one thousand kropotniks, and somebody slipped him a thousand and he slipped you the arsenic. In other words, money is something that can overturn loyalty, money is something that corrodes the spirit, money is something you drive people out of temples about, money is this, money is that, money's bad, it's all bad over there.
...

Papa, when he wasn't making enough money, couldn't confront it — so he wasn't even aware of the fact he was broke! He thought he was doing all right, see? He was getting along there on his $3.00 a week or whatever they used to pay. He thought he was doing all right; that was what a man in his profession ought to be making, he thought, maybe. He wasn't even aware of the fact that he was short on the stuff. Now, that's a fantastic thing. And that's how bad confronting of money can become.

Successes from listening to the Congress Lectures

"I have been listening to the first one and I am having incredible wins! I listened to LRH and instantly rehabbed an ability that I had earlier! My entire universe brightened up and mass blew. The Congresses are 'filling in blank spots' that I thought were from misunderstood words, but it was missing data! The Congresses contain the missing data! I now see the progression and I am hungry for more data.

"A day without a Congress lecture is a disappointment. A day with a Congress lecture is enlightenment and case gain. This was a missing piece for me. I have bought all of the Congresses and I am intent to finish them as soon as I can. Already life's problems are looking very solvable. I know LRH tech works and I have not been distracted or discouraged by the HE&R of the physical universe, the bank or other people's stops. This is all regained ability and regained certainty on KSW from listening to the first Congress. Truly, I am entering the Golden Age of Knowledge and my world is better for it."

What is a Congress?

After having isolated the fundamental laws and axioms of Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard had the basis for all future research in the codification of materials and processes to make the attainment of their full potentials available to every being.

And so it was that while continuing to work with auditors, instructing them in Advanced Clinical Courses (ACCs) and Professional Courses, his discoveries were recorded in more than 3,000 lectures which, step by step and in their entirety, provide the grand panorama of understanding the human mind and secrets of life that is Scientology today.

Yet also contained within that chronology of consecutive developments are milestones, breakthroughs of such major significance they formed the next giant leap in building the Bridge for all to travel. Those milestones—those giant leaps—are precisely what are found in LRH's Congress Lectures.

And now, for the first time, they are all available to you.

The Congress Lectures include the following (click on any title for more info):
