Scientology Axiom 28

When I was first introduced into Scientology, in 1970, the lecturer told us what communication was: It was the consideration and action of impelling an impulse or particle from a source point across a distance to a receipt point with the intention of creating at the receipt point a duplication of what emanated from the source point. Later I found out that this was a fundamental axiom of Scientology.

AXIOM 28. COMMUNICATION IS THE CONSIDERATION AND ACTION OF COMPELLING AN IMPULSE OR PARTICLE FROM SOURCE-POINT ACROSS A DISTANCE TO RECEIPT POINT, WITH THE INTENTION OF BRINGING INTO BEING AT THE RECEIPT-POINT A DUPLICATION OF THAT WHICH EMANATED FROM THE SOURCE- POINT.

and I learned it by heart. It lasted from 1954 till 1973. It made sense in view of the definition of understanding as given in AXIOM 21. UNDERSTANDING IS COMPOSED OF AFFINITY, REALITY, AND COMMUNICATION.

Thus one had a duplication and together with agreement and alignment to what one already knew plus the necessary affinity to provide the willingness to receive the impulse or particle it added up to understanding. Let’s say the particle was a letter and reading (duplicating) it one would consult agreed upon meanings of words (reality) and like or dislike the contents (affinity) and all three components in swing would result in understanding. We called it the ARC triangle and everything was fine.

Then there was a revision, as follows.

AXIOM 28 AMENDED

AXIOM 28.

COMMUNICATION IS THE CONSIDERATION AND ACTION OF IMPELLING AN IMPULSE OR PARTICLE FROM SOURCE-POINT ACROSS A DISTANCE TO RECEIPT-POINT, WITH THE INTENTION OF BRINGING INTO BEING AT THE RECEIPT-POINT A DUPLICATION AND UNDERSTANDING OF THAT WHICH EMANATED FROM THE SOURCE-POINT.

The formula of Communication is: Cause, Distance, Effect, with Intention, Attention and Duplication WITH UNDERSTANDING.

The component parts of the full Communication cycle are:
Observation, Confront, Consideration, Intention, Attention, Cause, Source-point, Particle or Impulse or Message, Distance, Estimation of Distance, Control (Start, Change, Stop), Direction, Time, and Timing, the Velocity of the impulse or particle or message, Volume, Clarity, Interest, Impingement, Effect, Receipt-point, Duplication, Answer, Acknowledgment, Understanding,  Nothingness or Somethingness.

A non-communication consists of Barriers. Barriers consist of Space, Interpositions (such as walls and screens of fast-moving particles), and Time. A communication by definition, does not need to be two-way.

When a communication is returned, the formula is repeated, with the receipt-point now becoming a source-point and the former source-point now becoming a receipt-point.

LRH:dr

It was an instant ARC Break in that I duplicated the communication from the bulletin but without understanding. There was no reason given for the change, no reality. And affinity lacking as I never had a problem with the axiom as given originally. Also there was no LRH lecture explaining it.

Note that this revision was given without any explanation or justification even though that would have been warranted due to the fact that the implication of this amended axiom was that any consistency of the axioms was thereby destroyed.

If communication by itself now results in understanding why bother with affinity and reality. In particular reality would play a role in creating understanding.

Another consequence of this amendment was that it threw the axiomatic definition of communication out of alignment with other definitions such as for example given in Scn 8-8008: “An interchange of energy from one beingness to another in the thetan and in Homo Sapiens, communication is known as perception. P21.

And perception does not equate to understanding.

Expanded Grade 0 – 4 Rehab/Verification

What follows is a summary of the results of about 60 hrs of ability processing delivered at the MGT Institute over the last few months: (In English translation followed by the German original)

I did the grades in 1990/91 and spent about 10 months on this cycle. I did not know any better and I was quite satisfied, after all I had wins. At the same time I was studying the levels of the Academy and the more I knew the more doubts came up as to whether I had really reached the EPs of the grades. Later on the bridge I got stuck which strengthened my doubts. But I was not allowed at the time to check the grades and possible complete them.

I had to wait for 25 years.but now it is a done and I can start of by saying that I no longer have the slightest doub, that I gained the full EPs of Grades 0-4 exactly as given in the reference materials.

Bit by bit we closed the gaps with super wins on several parts, which are going far beyond what was gained in the earlier auditing.

Since I completed Grade Zero, many people want to speak to me. I was not used to that and was at first surprised about it, but it is wonderful that I can now communicate effortlessly and freely with anyone.Also the objective processes were completed and I am very awake ever since. A slight haze of cloudiness in my consciousness was still there hardly noticeable, but now this is gone.

Grade 1 was amazing and clearly raised my productivity. I have not worked so much in years and with a lot of pleasure as well. Grade 2 again made me very aware of the value of having one’s own integrity. With this awareness life is really more simple and the withholds are just gone.

Grade 2 hat mir wieder deutlich vor Augen geführt, wie wertvoll die eigene Integrität ist.Mit diesem Bewusstsein ist das Leben deutlich einfacher und die Zurückhaltungen sind verschwunden.

Grade 3 is simply a blessing. Changes are absolutely needed to create a new future. I am happy to get going now energetically.

Grade 4 was the crown. A powerful blockage that was lying accross my life has disappeared into the past. Surely that was the biggest win on the Grades. To say my energy level has multiplied is an understatement.

My dream is fulfilled, the End Phenomena of the Grades. Caspar and the MGT team deserve the greatest recognition and heartiest thanks.   L.E.

1990/91 machte ich die Grade, ich war ca. 10 Monate auf diesem Zyklus. Ich wusste es nicht besser und war ganz zufrieden, ich hatte ja Gewinne. Gleichzeitig studierte ich die Levels und je mehr ich wusste, um so mehr kamen mir Zweifel, dass ich die EPs der Grade wirklich erreicht hatte. Später auf der Brücke bin ich dann steckengeblieben, was die Zweifel verstärkte. Es wurde mir aber nicht gestattet, die Grade zu überprüfen und evtl. zu komplettieren.

25 Jahre musste ich warten, doch jetzt ist es vollbracht und vorneweg, ich habe nicht die geringsten Zweifel mehr, dass ich das volle EP der Grade 0 bis 4 erreicht habe, so wie dies gemäß den Referenzen vorhergesagt wurde. Stück für Stück haben wir die Lücken geschlossen mit teilweise sagenhaften Gewinnen, die weit über das des früheren Auditings hinausgehen.

Seit ich Grad 0 abgeschlossen habe, wollen viele Leute mit mir sprechen. Ich war das nicht gewöhnt, war erstmal erstaunt, aber es ist wunderschön, dass ich jetzt so zwanglos und frei mit allen kommunizieren kann. Auch Objektive Prozesse wurden komplettiert und ich bin seither sehr wach. Ein Hauch von Bewusstseinstrübung war immer noch vorhanden, kaum spürbar, jetzt ist es weg.

Grad 1 war erstaunlich, es hat meine Produktivität deutlich gesteigert, ich habe so viel wie schon seit Jahren nicht mehr gearbeitet und das mit viel Spaß.

Grad 2 hat mir wieder deutlich vor Augen geführt, wie wertvoll die eigene Integrität ist. Mit diesem Bewusstsein ist das Leben deutlich einfacher und die Zurückhaltungen sind verschwunden.

Grad 3 ist einfach ein Wohltat. Veränderungen sind dringend erforderlich, um eine neue Zukunft zu erschaffen. Ich freue mich, mit Tatkraft jetzt durchzustarten.

Grad 4 die Krönung. Eine mächtige Blockade, die quer über mein Leben lag ist Vergangenheit. Ganz sicher der größte Gewinn auf den Graden. Meine Energie hat sich vervielfacht, das ist wahrscheinlich eine Untertreibung.

Mein Traum ging in Erfüllung, die EPs der Grade. Caspar und dem Team gebührt die größte Anerkennung und den allerherzlichsten Dank. L.E.
