More About Scientology: The Fundamentals of Thought

For thousands of years Man has searched, pondered and speculated about the true “meaning of life.” But, in Scientology, that search has culminated—for the secret has now been discovered. Based on precision Axioms (self-evident truths), these are the answers—answers you’ve been looking for, answers that work.

Here, then, is the Basic Book on the Theory and Practice of Scientology, with discoveries embracing every aspect of life, including:

• The Cycle-of-Action, revealing what underlies the continuous cycle of creation, survival and destruction—a cycle that seems inevitable in life, but which is only an apparency
• The Conditions-of-Existence that comprise all life and livingness—and by which one can truly Be
• The Eight Dynamics upon which all life is compartmented and by which one can resolve the puzzle of their own existence
• The Affinity, Reality and Communication Triangle, revealing and explaining the underlying principles of true human relations
• The Parts of Man, the comprehensive explanation of Spirit, Mind and Body, their anatomy and interrelationship in every being
• The Reason Why, answering the questions of “what it’s all about” and giving the very elements of survival, happiness and life itself
• Scientology Processes that unlock the life force that is you

And, with this book, you won’t just “learn”—you’ll discover these principles for yourself. Because this is Scientology—the knowledge of you.

More About Handbook for Preclears

Handbook for Preclears is the legendary self-processing manual that marks the transition from the subject of Dianetics to Scientology. Here are the breakthroughs that revealed the phenomenon of the LIFE CONTINUUM—a mechanism by which every individual takes on the disabilities of the deceased or departed, until they are no longer living their own life. Here, then, are the answers to getting rid of all those parts of “you” that aren’t really YOU. The book includes:

• Expansive essays providing the most complete description of The Ideal State of Man
• The Goals of Man, and why his survival depends upon the conquest of the physical universe
• The Human Mind, how it operates and its underlying purpose
• The Control Center, the “awareness of awareness” unit of the mind, and how it is CAUSE of the body and environment
• The Hubbard Chart of Attitudes, a milestone breakthrough that complements the Hubbard Chart of Human Evaluation, which explains one’s reactions to life
• The Fifteen Acts of self-processing that move an individual from EFFECT to CAUSE—processes so powerful that this book is now known as the book of miracles
• And, the Definitions, Logics and Axioms providing the very basis of the study of knowledge and the underlying truths of what life itself is doing

In self-processing, “Handbook for Preclears” is used in conjunction with “Self Analysis.”

More About Dianetics: The Original Thesis

Here is Mr. Hubbard’s first description of Dianetics. Originally circulated in manuscript form to a few friends, it was soon copied and passed hand-to-hand until it literally circled the globe. But the resultant word of mouth only fueled the fire. With thousands of letters requesting more information, he concluded the only way to answer all inquiries was with a book. That book was Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health, now the all-time bestseller on the mind. Find out what started it all. For here are the bedrock discoveries and equations of Dianetics, including:

• The Primary Axioms of Dianetics—axioms upon which the entire subject is built
• The discovery of the Dynamic Principle of Existence that drives all life forms—SURVIVE!
• The Four Dynamics by which life is compartmented and which determine one’s survival
• The discovery and anatomy of the Reactive Mind
• Engrams, the single source of all irrational behavior
• The powerful command in every engram which prevented their discovery and handling before Dianetics
• The Analytical Mind, its function and operation
• The first description of the state of Clear, its attributes and potentials
• And, most important, the Laws of Returning—containing the explanation of both how and why auditing works

Here, then, are the fundamental breakthroughs Mr. Hubbard used to make the first Clears—breakthroughs which made possible the development of technology for use by every individual to begin the clearing of a planet, breakthroughs only contained in Dianetics: The Original Thesis.

More About Dianetics: The Evolution of a Science

Originally written and published in national magazines to coincide with the release of Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health, here is L. Ron Hubbard’s own story of his developmental trail and two-decade journey to the discovery of the Reactive Mind.

Evolution of a Science contains the only account of:

• How the optimum computing machine—the mind—works
• How Mr. Hubbard discovered Basic Personality
• How the Dynamic Principle of Existence—SURVIVE!—was first isolated
• How wrong answers enter into the mind and are held down, giving further wrong answers
• How there seem to be “Demons” of the mind
• How the engram was discovered
• How Dianetics techniques were developed

That’s why Evolution of a Science is the story of the greatest adventure of all—the exploration that discovered the Reactive Mind and the technology to conquer it. He wrote it so you would know.

More About The Way To Happiness

True joy and happiness are valuable.

If one does not survive, no joy and no happiness are obtainable.

Trying to survive in a chaotic, dishonest and generally immoral society is difficult.

Any individual or group seeks to obtain from life what pleasure and freedom from pain that they can.

Your own survival can be threatened by the bad actions of others around you.

Your own happiness can be turned to tragedy and sorrow by the dishonesty and misconduct of others.

I am sure you can think of instances of this actually happening. Such wrongs reduce one’s survival and impair one’s happiness.

You are important to other people. You are listened to. You can influence others.

The happiness or unhappiness of others you could name is important to you. Without too much trouble, using this book, you can help them survive and lead happier lives.

While no one can guarantee that anyone else can be happy, their chances of survival and happiness can be improved. And with theirs, yours will be.

It is in your power to point the way to a less dangerous and happier life.
