Enslaving a Mind, Chapter Seven | Print |
Friday, 18 December 2009 18:02
Interviewer: Welcome back to our seventh installment and interview with Nomad. How are you today?

Nomad: Good thanks.

Interviewer: You mentioned to me that you wanted to speak about enslaving a mind.

Nomad: Yes. There's a quotation from a lecture that LRH did on 6 December 1952 where he says the following:

"It [Scientology] is not in itself an arbitrary, fascistic police force to make sure that we all think right thoughts. It's a servant of the mind, a servo-mechanism of the mind. It is not a master of the mind. Scientology will decline and become useless to man on the day when it becomes the master of thinking."

This is possibly the most destructive aspect of what the current Church administration is engaging in which could be called black Scientology. Taking people's minds and controlling them through a perversion of truth.

Interviewer: You're talking about brain washing?

Nomad: No - I'm not. Brain washing is something dreamed up by the Chinese, the CIA and the US government usually involving drugging, pain and implanting people when they are beaten down. I'm talking about taking a man or a woman, who has come into Scientology with a forward purpose to learn and to change their lives, and other people's lives for the better. You take that person once they have completely engaged themselves in and are convinced of the truths of Scientology. And believe me, when you study the books and do some auditing (counselling) unless you're dead in the head already, it's nearly impossible not to have your eyes opened and to start seeing life in a whole new perspective. Call it opening up the mind, spiritual revelation, enlightenment- it's all the same thing. Now that the guy is IN - you start shooting perversions at him. You tell him that he MUST accept everything you say because everything you say is supposedly based on what Mr Hubbard wrote. In other words, the most vicious aspect of this perversion is that the people doing it align themselves with the founder, making themselves look unquestionable - unchallengable. This does a very interesting thing to people. Innately you see that something is wrong, or you sense it or whatever - yet you are being hit with a constant barrage of how they are uprighteous, that they are doing everything that Mr Hubbard said, and they quote him and swear on the bible of Scientology that they are forwarding that agenda. This causes a real twist in one's head because you start to feel like your own reality and your own mind are not quite trusting - you start to feel like it would be wrong to question these people - it would be wrong to challenge them - and of course in leaning in that direction you are nullifying yourself - your own mind, your own sense of rightness, your own perceptions of truth - you are denying YOU.

Interviewer: Very subtle how it is done.

Nomad: Seems so - but in fact - with Sea Org members - they are very unsubtle about it - if that is a correct word to use. Sea Org members are so mentally focused and dedicated, and so in the mindset that top management of Scientology is the most dedicated and trustworthy of any human being on earth, that they never question or challenge it. Something has to give in that mix - and what you lose is your own determinism, your own ability to think and see and act as you feel is right - you are effectively caught up in a momentum that is dictated from the top. It's not a new concept - every dictator, tyrant, oppressive ruler has used the same technique. But if you consider that Scientology, through a study of it, would give a person a clearer mind, would give them a sense of certainty about who they were and where they were headed in life, then the moment you start to put the kind of spin and doubt into that equation which David Miscavige and his people are professionals at doing - you are truly destroying good people and good minds. This is why we see a slave-like state and operation happening not only in the Sea Org but with Scientologists.

Interviewer: How is that mindset filtering down to the average Scientologist?

Nomad: Take the average Scientologist who has been around a few years, he or she has done courses, studied many books, received sufficient auditing to feel compelled to pursue the Bridge all the way to OT. They have bought in. They see Scientology as the future for themselves - spiritually and otherwise. It's actually a great feeling to know answers to life that you've always wondered about. Don't get me wrong anywhere in the course of these interviews. Scientology is pure magic. It's wonderful stuff. The entirety of what we are talking about in my eventual book which you are authoring for me, is the perversion of that body of truth called Scientology. So back to Joe average Scientologist. He is pounded daily by his local organization and other organizations elsewhere to attend events every few months, to give money constantly for donations. He receives countless magazines which tell him over and over that Scientology is expanding like never before. Yet, he walks into his local organization and sees a handful of staff. He sees one or two new people taking a personality test. He goes to the Academy and there are four people on course. He can't remember the last time when the org announced a Clear. He says to himself quietly - this doesn't add up - but then he goes to the next event and David Miscavige announces the great new plan to clear the planet - shows them all fantastic graphs that explode off the top of the charts - and none of it compares to what Joe average Scientologist sees. He challenges his own perception, he questions his own mind - and he decides that it wouldn't be ethical to challenge Scientology management because of course they KNOW. At this point he, like every other Scientologist in the world, compromises with his OWN mind and his own integrity and he loses himself in the same whirlpool that everyone else has fallen into.

Interviewer: Has this always been the case?

Nomad: No. There used to be a time back in the 1970s and earlier, when you could think, speak and say what you wanted to in Scientology - the mindset was not controlled. Scientology consequently EXPANDED - because it could. We are engaged today in black Scientology. David Miscavige is making sure that everyone from the top most level Sea Org members down to the new guy who has just walked into the organization in Auckland New Zealand - buys only his mindset. All of this is diametrically opposed to what LRH intended for Scientology which is why Scientology has stopped truly expanding since the mid to late 80's. LRH wanted people who could think, who could act and who were independently OT. Naturally he wanted OTs organized so as to get more done - but he never intended that their minds would be marginalized and controlled. That would shock him to the core today if he saw what David Miscavige has done with the organization that he spent fifty years developing. I'm quite sure that the only person that would be on the RPF would be David Miscavige himself.

Interviewer: Do you see a way of dealing with this?

Nomad: Yes - to free their minds we have to get THEM to look and to independently decide if they are being fed the truth or not. It takes a certain amount of courage and integrity to stand by truth. If people want to be slaves and live in the "comfort" of that zone, then so be it, but if people want to be OT then the first thing you have to know about being an operating thetan (OT) is that you MUST be able to deal with ultimate truth. Scientologists today - all the way up to OT 8 are deluding themselves into thinking that they have accomplished the level. Until they are willing to see and act on the truth of what is in front of their eyes - they are only pretending to be an OT. An OT by definition MUST operate at the level of TRUTH. That is how you make an OT, you get them to see the lies, the illusions - you get them to see TRUTH and when they do they break the chains of enslavement and become who they really are. OT.

Interviewer: Thanks again Nomad.

Nomad: Welcome.
