Scientology Founded On Principles Of Dark Magic, Dark Psychology - Page 3
3) Stress Induced Euphoria: The purpose of the audit is to be so mentally and stressfully painful as you are trying to hide information from complete strangers as well as make sense of nonsensical questions, that, when you are done with this long and tedious process, you feel a euphoria of endorphins. This creates the illusion that the technique worked.
4) Going exterior: Going exterior is actually a real exercise. However, it is used for sinister purposes. What he is talking about is what NLP refers to as "uptime", when you are so concentrating on the outside environment, you temporarily shut off your "internal environment" of thoughts, feelings, doubts, etc. The Yaqui Indians referred to this as Second Attention. Also, exercises performed in uptime that are contrary to the conscious mind or its "continuity" will likely be forgotten. Getting someone into this state is hypnosis nirvana. Their unconscious mind is then an open book.
Now, in the Yaqui tradition, getting to the "Second Attention" is only a first step in mastery. Much more is possible from there. However, with Hubbard's tech, just the physical sensations of the state are used as proof that the tech works.
Every bit of L. Ron's tech is not designed to give you what he delivered, but to give you kinesthetic proof that something is working. Let's look at their take on drugs.
They suggest taking vitamins, especially Niacin, and doing saunas.
To the uneducated person, they can easily believe that you can sweat out toxins. The increase in blood flow after a sauna gives you a definite feeling of euphoria, because increased blood flow equals increased oxygen to the brain.
The same thing with Niacin. Niacin just opens up your capillaries. Creating an increase in blood flow. Creating an increase in oxygenation. Thus, creating a sense of euphoria.
Every single tech that L. Ron uses it to create physical "evidence" and kinesthetic data that the tech works, while selling you more and more expensive courses.
Scientology is a dangerous cult. It is dangerous to the well being and ecology of your mind, as well as to your health. Vitamins can easily be overdosed on. Too much sauna can damage dna as well as deplete your body of necessary salts.
In addition to that, it does nothing to solve the chemical inbalances of seratonin, dopamine, and other mental illness related brain chemicals.
