"So the first place we take the riddle to pieces is right here on the basis of 'What are you?' And the first moment you realize you're not your body—bang! You can at least stand over here. Your body will always be an effect, and there is no reason for you to go on through life going and winding this riddle round and round and round of 'Am I a cause or am I an effect? Or am I an effect or am I a cause? Because if I step on a nail I hurt; therefore, I am an effect. Therefore, I could never be completely at cause, because if I step on a nail, why, then I hurt and that automatically makes me an effect.'

"You better locate that part of you which is always cause and then recognize that you are that part. And that's very simple—very, very simple.

"Right here on the middle of 'youness' is an imperishable, completely indestructible motion source. It is a motion source which itself has no motion. That is your inheritance as part of divine beingness. That is it, and don't think that is a small part of you or merely a part of you, because it's not. That's you. You have immortality in that part of you which is you; that is immortal. If you didn't have that, you wouldn't be here."

Knowing by being
An article by L. Ron Hubbard, from The Route to Infinity lectures

And I told you about going over this incident and over it and over it. And why does it erase? Well, you're burning it up. You're not rubbing it out. There's nothing MEST there to rub on. You're just burning it up; you burn it up, burn it up and finally it blows.

Well, there's no reason why you can't just sort of get mmmmmm—psshew!

Now, the fact of the matter is, fact of the matter is, you take a light lock—take some little light lock that's completely inconsequential—and practice on it for a while and say, "How do I burn this thing down?" Get a visio—a visio of something—and just go, finally, until you find out how to make the visio go. And oddly enough, if you get the trick rather easily, it will then develop on up the line with magnitude. But, of course, there is an implant on the track that tells you you shouldn't do this, you shouldn't do this. This is bad; bad to burn things up like this, because you've got to have facsimiles!

"I tell you, if you didn't have facsimiles, you wouldn't have any experience. If you didn't have any experience, you wouldn't remember how police could get so tough, and you wouldn't remember it enough to be facsimiles to do all that labor for us! And so you've got to have facsimiles, and they're very valuable, and therefore let's all study eidetic psychology because a facsimile is the only important thing! Beingness is not important but the facsimile is important, so therefore you got to have pictures of everything you've ever seen, been and felt or heard. Don't go ramming up and down the time track through time, you know, and taking a look in person—not done."

Anybody here, by the way, every time he tries to go back down the time track and return to another place, just sort of sits and looks at himself sitting where he was sitting? I mean, he never quite gets out of present time whenever he starts to look at something? Anybody here who does that?

Yeah, he says, "I'm going back to the time when I was sitting in the chair there and scan all that out." And he doesn't seem to go anyplace and he looks at himself sitting in the chair. And he runs it a couple of times and it's gone, but what he's actually doing—what he's doing—is he dubs himself in as sitting in the chair and then dubs in the incident that happened to him and then says, "Now, I'll run it out." And so he rubs out what he dubbed in and then he says, "Now I feel better." Well, a facsimile is a little bit different than that. A facsimile is pretty (quote, unquote) "solid."

But somebody else would love you to have facsimiles and you don't need any. The less facsimiles you have, the faster you can think. The less facsimiles you have, the better off you are. And yet the second you start to rub out the whole bank—and if you were to suddenly say, "I'm going to take all of my memory banks, and I'm going to wipe them all out—psheww!" Oh, you say, "O-o-o-oh, no. No, no. No, because that's me. Mm-hm. Yep, yep, all those memories, they're me. You see, I don't exist anywhere, so those memories are me. So if I wiped out any of these memories, of course, I would be gone. Yeah, I need those."

You get people who have this so bad, by the way, that locks won't blow. And that is the principal reason why locks won't blow on some preclears: because they've got to have this memory bank because this memory bank is them. Actually, it is not them at all. They are a vital spark of beingness. And that vital spark of beingness happens to be cause and it happens to know, and it can know anything it wants to know instantly. And it's a wonderful little gimmick and it's the one that does all of your thinking for you anyhow.

But an implant can be put on to you to such a degree that you've agreed that this and that is the case, so the best thing for you to do is to go back and look at the facsimile or go back and remember what you were taught in school or go back and do something or other, and then think it all out and then get into present time again and then say, "Well, I remember it." Oh!

It's nonsense! There is no knowledge worth knowing that's in your memory bank. All the knowledge that's worth knowing is outside your memory bank—in complete and perfect contact with the beingness that is you. Seems hard to believe, doesn't it?

But, actually, you can understand completely how an automobile drives by being the automobile. You can slide in behind the wheel.

Maybe sometime when you were a little kid you could do this before some grown-up grabbed ahold of you and said, "Ooh, oooh—no, no! No, we have to teach you. And we're going to teach you now. Now, let's start in at the beginning and let's not try to run before we learn how to walk. And now if you learn this thoroughly, we can get you feeling mighty stupid, and then—then we can get a lot of work out of you when you grow up."

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.

Make your decisions from the top of the Tone Scale!

Why are these lectures important?

The material covered in this series is designed to remove the self-created barriers that keep a person from arriving at sane, prosurvival decisions. In these lectures, Ron introduces the gradient scale of beingness, from zero to infinity, and thus bridges the gap between a being's ideal and current conditions.

These lectures bridge from whole track experience to infinite ARC and chart the path from indecision to a far more ideal statewhere life can be lived with the velocity, passion and purpose that only uninhibited beingness can bring to it.

Here are some examples of what you will find out in this series:

  • Why people go way uptone when they fall in love
  • How you can handle a body so it never gets tired
  • What makes a thetan susceptible to being implanted
  • Why the power of decision is the power of sanity
  • The root of any trouble in making decisions
  • What the point is from which you emanate
  • What the state of ultimate beingness is
  • How to make life much less serious
  • Why childhood is occluded
  • What the symbol of the circle, triangle, zero and infinity means
  • How time relates to one's position on the Tone Scale
  • How to disintegrate any situation or incident
  • How to get into communication with any part of your body
  • How a being's illusions become reality
  • What wavelength to use to get rid of the material universe
  • The two rules of cause and effect

For the first time in the history of this universe you can find out the answers to these questions. They are all contained in The Route to Infinity lectures.

You get 7 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.

Success story from listening to these lectures:

"Without the data from those lectures [The Route to Infinity], I never would have dreamed such a wild dream, and been able to hold it there until it came true."

"My wife and I have been Scientologists for over 25 years. For a variety of reasons, we got stalled on The Bridge; I was at Clear, my wife at OT III. Although we had the purpose and intention to move up The Bridge, it just wasn't happening. As any Scientologist would agree, this creates a serious failed purpose.

"I started listening to the The Route to Infinity lectures while in my car, driving to and from sales and service calls, and a key datum that Ron repeats frequently began to sink in. From my own duplication of LRH, it was as follows: The MEST universe is a reality only because we all agree to it, but that it is really an illusion, and a shabby one at that. One's own universe is the actuality. As a thetan slides down the scale, he reverses this concept, so that his own universe becomes a seemingly insignificant illusion, the MEST universe becomes the 'reality,' and that the actuality is lost to that thetan.

"Somewhere around the fourth lecture, the datum finally sunk in, and I cognited on what he was saying: That the reason I was so pressed back, having my intention blunted etc., was because I believed that I could 'survive' only if I agreed with MEST until it would permit me to survive. When I got home, I put aside all of the problems I was facing, located myself in the room I was in, and then created the illusion that I was in fact quite successful in anything I wanted to be, that had all of the space I needed, and could enjoy the game of life, and get up The Bridge.

"Less than two weeks later, I pulled in the money to get going on The Bridge again, and to do it full time. This year, I have moved from 'Stalled Clear' to OT IV. My wife has completed OT IV and V, and in less than two months, we will be going to Flag for VI and VII.

"Now, from this viewpoint, I see that I was imprisoned in a structure of my own making, unable to get out, even though I was holding the key in my hand, which I had forgotten about, and I wasn't even aware that I held anything in my hand.

"Without the data from those lectures, I never would have dreamed such a wild dream, and been able to hold it there until it came true.

"I share this data with you with the hope and postulate that you can use the data in these lectures, and if you are stuck, trapped, or blunted on your progress up The Bridge, I cannot recommend this data highly enough." —M.T., OT IV
