Social psychology is based on the ABCs of affect, behavior, and cognition. In order to effectively maintain and enhance our own lives through successful interaction with others, we rely on these three basic and interrelated human capacities:

ref. https://positivepsychology.com/albert-ellis-abc-model-rebt-cbt/

1. Affect (feelings)
2. Behavior (interactions)
3. Cognition (thought)

In Scientology this reads A, R and C.

1. Affinity (feelings)
2. Reality (thought)
3. Communication (interactions)

There is no such thing. The idea of an actual GPM line plot is based on the belief that a goal always leads to its opposition. There ain’t such a thing as ‘earlier goals being dramatized’, there is only one particular goal being pursued in the present time. Earlier goals may exist as memory, but not as actualization. There may be opposition but not necessarily from the same being. There are actual goals and the possible resistance to those from other beings with goals. There are three scenarios: goals supporting other goals, goals countering other goals and goals not affecting other goals.

The subject of goals is in fact the same subject as the ‘dynamic principle of existence’ or the basic motivation of a being. The basic motivation of a being was precisely identified by Nietzsche, it is the Will to Power [refer ethics conditions] and this may be the one goal that all beings have in common, regardless of the individualized versions of this basic goal.

“Understand: To have a clear and true idea or conception, or full and exact knowledge, of something. In general it may be said that understand refers to the result of a mental process or processes (a clear and exact idea or notion, or full knowledge).”

HCO BULLETIN OF 7 SEPTEMBER 1974 SUPERLITERACY AND THE CLEARED WORD

First of all note that the definition of ARC or Communication does not include any thought process.

ARC (loosely defined) is a transfer of an impulse or particle – with some attendant affinity and reality (agreement) – from one point in space to another which produces whatever experience corresponds to that impact.

It will always be a particular experience. In order to become an understanding it would have to be generalized or given a position in a larger more universal context or it will never add up to understanding. Concepts which are key to understanding, imply universals and thought processes.

In other words understanding will need reason, logic and thought (mathematics) to manifest.

The above gives rise to two different triads:

Affinity+Reality (agreement)+Communication = EXPERIENCE

Reason+Logic+Thought (Mathematics) = UNDERSTANDING

This must be corrected in scientology, if it is to last at all. Hubbard was too much married to empiricism which is shown by the above. One can also see that in his writing on ‘Logics’ as was pointed out about a year ago in the book ‘Critique of Pure Scientology’.

Lafayette states that a static is an energy production and conversion unit capable of manifesting electromagnetic phenomena without physical characteristics.

He is obviously ignoring the fact that a static is defined as having no motion, no energy, no wavelength. There are however no electromagnetic phenomena without wavelength. This is doubly contradictory.

He could save the day by using the term ‘theta motor’ instead of static as I have suggested earlier. https://xscn.mgtconcepts.com/?p=667  If it wasn’t for the crappy formulation there might even be some truth in what he is saying.

Theta is reason. A reason is the thought behind whatever it is the reason for. Everything that exists is or has an underlying thought or reason. “In the beginning and forever is the decision and the decision is TO BE.” LRH

Existence was preceded by a decision, which is a type of thought. Or we could say that the reason for existence was the decision. Therefore one can validly state that reason is the driving force or dynamic principle of existence.

Life = Theta = Static = Thought = Dynamic
