Thus areas taken purely by force of arms can never be held by force of arms in the absence of demand for product and thus demand by the area for occupation and consolidation. As we have a product that frees in an ultimate sense and de-aberrates there is of course an end to the game. But it is so far ahead, embracing a whole universe, that it requires minimal consideration. Expansion requires area to expand into. And we are in no danger of running out of that. If we were dependent as nations often think they are on boundary expansion on one planet, or into one planet's populations as companies think they are, we would have brakes on expansions due to territorial or population limitations alone. But we are not likely to encounter such barriers for a period of time so long we can consider our expansion potential as infinite-and are the only organisation that honestly can so consider. We are not conquering land in the government sense anyway. OVER-EXPANSION All factors, then, in policy are rigged for expansion. And this brings about a possibility one can be asked about, that of overexpansion. One can "over-expand" by acquiring too much territory too fast without knowing how to handle it. One can conquer new territory as fast as one wants IF he knows how to handle the situation. There are several ways one can "over-expand". They all boil down to over- extended administration lines in a single administrative unit. In this one must know the principle on which the org board was originally conceived. It is that of Thetan-Mind-Body-Product. If there is a thetan, a mind (organisation potential not a harmful mass) can be set up, a mind which will organise a body which will produce a product. If any one of these elements (Thetan-Mind-Body-Product) are missing then an organisation will fail. Man is so aberrated all mental actions seem to him to be reactive mind actions. But there has to be in organisations a data and problem-solution coordination unit in order to set up a body. (A thetan can do this without a lot of mass, having his memory and perception and intelligence.) We have then an Advisory Council to coordinate acquired data, recognise and resolve problems. Above it there has to be a thetan somewhat detached from it. This may be a higher mind (Ad Council) operating as a director to the lower Ad Council. The mind must operate to form a body. This body is the Mest (Matter Energy Space and Time) and staff of the organisation. This body must produce a product. This in the HGC, for instance, is resolved cases. Any smaller part of the whole organisation is also a Thetan-Mind-Body- Product. Often the executive is both thetan and mind but as soon as traffic gets too heavy, he must form a separate mind such as an administrative committee or a personal staff to compose the mind. In such a smaller unit than the whole org, there is yet a body (the staff and Mest of the unit). And there must be a specific product. The product sometimes is absent and sometimes incorrectly assigned but if so the unit won't function. Over-expansion occurs only when one tries to handle the larger volume with the same Thetan-Mind-Body-Product numbers one had before.
