TO THE READER:
Scientology is a religious philosophy containing pastoral
counseling procedures intended to assist an individual to gain
greater knowledge of self. The Mission of the Church of
Scientology is a simple one-to help the individual acheive
greater self-confidence and personal integrity, thereby enabling
him to really trust and respect himself and his fellow man. The
attainment of the benefits and goals of Scientology requires each
individual's positive participation, as only through his own
efforts can he achieve these.
This is part of the religious literature and works of the
Founder of Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard. It is presented to the
reader as part of the record of his personal research into Life,
and should be construed only as a written report of such
research and not as a statement of claims made by the Church
or the author.
Scientology and its sub-study, Dianetics, as practiced by the
Church, address only the spiritual side of Man. Although the
Church, as are all churches, is free to engage in spiritual
healing, it does not, as its primary goal is increased knowledge
and personal integrity for all. For this reason, the Church does
not wish to accept individuals who desire treatment of physical
illness or insanity, but refers these to qualified specialists in
other organizations who deal in these matters.
The Hubbard Electrometer is a religious artifact used in the
Church confessional. It, in itself, does nothing, and is used by
Ministers only, to assist parishioners in locating areas of
spiritual distress or travail.
We hope the reading of this book is only the first stage of a
personal voyage of discovery into the positive and effective
religion of Scientology.
