**************************************************
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
Our purpose is to promote religious freedom and the Scientology
Religion by spreading the Scientology Tech across the internet.
The Cof$ abusively suppresses the practice and use of
Scientology Tech by FreeZone Scientologists. It misuses the
copyright laws as part of its suppression of religious freedom.
They think that all freezoner's are "squirrels" who should be
stamped out as heritics. By their standards, all Christians,
Moslems, Mormons, and even non-Hassidic Jews would be considered
to be squirrels of the Jewish Religion.
The writings of LRH form our Old Testament just as the writings
of Judiasm form the Old Testament of Christianity.
We might not be good and obedient Scientologists according
to the definitions of the Cof$ whom we are in protest against.
But even though the Christians are not good and obedient Jews,
the rules of religious freedom allow them to have their old
testament regardless of any Jewish opinion.
We ask for the same rights, namely to practice our religion
as we see fit and to have access to our holy scriptures
without fear of the Cof$ copyright terrorists.
We ask for others to help in our fight. Even if you do
not believe in Scientology or the Scientology Tech, we hope
that you do believe in religious freedom and will choose
to aid us for that reason.
Thank You,
The FZ Bible Association

HCOB 7 Mar. 80 DIET, COMMENTS UPON
The Purification Rundown is undertaken by those who wish to
free themselves from the restimulative effects of drug
residues and biochemical factors which would otherwise
prevent or inhibit them from making the spiritual
improvement which is possible with Dianetic and Scientology
processing.
From the floods of highly enthusiastic letters and reports
of glowing results that continue to roll in, it
accomplishes this with resounding benefit and successes
that are even beyond the original expectations.
Since the initial release of the research data, those who
have completed the rundown number well up in the thousands.
Along with the numerous accounts received of wins and
changes and gain have come requests for more data on some
aspects of the rundown.
To satisfy these requests, several Case Supervisors who
were doing case
supervision of the Purification Rundown and a number of
people who were on or had completed the program were
interviewed so as to obtain more information for your use
in handling the rundown.
In all, 6 Case Supervisors from 5 major areas and a total
of 120 persons from those areas were carefully surveyed.
Their data is given in this HCOB, along with additional
data from unsolicited reports, where the information was
verified by folder study.
These summarized findings are based on results from a wide
spectrum of cases, including those with heavy, medium or
light street-drug history, those with history of medical
drugs in varying degrees and some few with minimal drugs of
any kind reported.
This information is not intended to take the place of
individual medical advices given to persons by their
doctors in doing the rundown.
1 . WHAT IS THE OPTIMUM DAILY LENGTH OF TIME ON THE
PURIFICATION RUNDOWN FOR MOST PEOPLE?
From the many cases interviewed and from C/S data, 5 hours
exercise and sauna daily has been found to be ideal for the
majority of people on the Purification Rundown. The rundown
apparently works like a bomb when the highest percentage of
this time is spent in the sauna and a lesser percentage in
running. (Example: A good ratio has been found to be
approximately 20 to 30 minutes of running to get the
circulation up and the remainder of the time in the sauna
for a total of 5 hours.) Not everyone has gone immediately
onto a full 5-hour stint right from the start (and some
have successfully done the entire program on a shorter
daily schedule, as covered later in this issue). In both
the running and the sauna, where the right gradient was
applied, particularly when beginning the program, it went
very smoothly. Age and current physical condition and
stamina can all enter into it. Among the many surveyed were
those who required a few days to work up to 5 hours daily,
but once there, it proved to be the optimum daily period
for them, as it has for so many people.
Additionally, on such a schedule the Purification Rundown
can and has been completed effectively in the shortest
possible amount of time.
Most people approached the 5-hour daily program eagerly and
enthusiastically.
Some were found apt to plunge in a bit out-gradiently at
the start, and this was handled by having them work up
gradually lo where they could run 20 to 30 minutes without
strain and take the sauna time at the rate they could
handle it, especially to begin with.
One area reported a few people staying in the sauna too
long with no break and turning on headaches and other
unnecessary reactions that way. The purpose should not be
to see how long one can stay in the sauna for any one
stretch of time, and this had to be clarified with several
such enthusiasts. What worked best was when the person had
a good sweat going and had been in the sauna sweating for a
while, then coming out, getting some fresh air and space
and cooling off, as needed, and going right back in for
more sweating. When plenty of liquids (many people take
water jugs into the sauna), enough salt or potassium or
Bioplasma were used, the sauna time went very well.
These are some of the points which were found to get and
keep the person winning.
2. CAN THE PURIFICATION RUNDOWN BE SATISFACTORILY
COMPLETED ON LESS THAN 5 HOURS DAILY?
This has been piloted where circumstances honestly
prevented some persons from doing the rundown 5 hours
daily. It was found that the rundown can be completed
effectively by a good many cases on less than 5 hours per
day, provided the person is getting benefit and change on
the shorter schedule.
The shorter schedules ranged from 4 hours down to a minimum
of 2 1/2 hours daily, always with a higher percentage of
time spent in the sauna than in running.
The absolute minimum daily period found to give good return
on the rundown was 2 1/2 hours total running and sauna
time. This period would then be spent as follows:
approximately 20 to 30 minutes of running and the remaining
2 hours or so in the sauna.
The same gradients applied when the person was on or
starting on a 2 1/2 hour daily schedule as on any other
schedule.
C/S approval would be obtained for the person to do the
rundown on this shorter schedule, as there are other
factors that enter into it. Any medical advice or order for
the person to be on the shorter schedule would, of course,
need to be followed.
The rundown can and in most cases has taken longer to
complete on a shortened daily schedule, but survey results
show that it can be done successfully by a good many people
at a minimum of 2 1 / 2 hours daily provided all other
points of the rundown are standardly maintained.
3. DOES THE EXTENT OF A PERSON'S DRUG HISTORY SEEM TO BE
A FACTOR IN HOW MUCH TIME WOULD BE SPENT DAILY ON
THE PURIFICATION RUNDOWN?
Per all the research and survey data thus far; the extent
of drug history is definitely a factor in determining how
much time daily an individual would spend on the rundown.
Beyond any doubt, the survey showed that those with heavy
or even mediumly heavy drug histories benefited most from
the 5-hour daily schedule. This can apply to persons with
heavy medical-drug histories as well as to those who have
had heavy street drugs.
There are reports on record of persons with heavy drug
histories who, though they had done fairly well at the
beginning of the rundown on 2 1 / 2 hours a day (some
phenomena turning on and blowing), did not begin to turn on
restimulation of actual "trips" and blow through them until
they got onto a 5-hour daily schedule.
Others reported that if something turned on while in the
sauna, they made it a point to stick carefully to the sauna
time (taking short breaks as necessary for water, salt or
potassium or to cool off) until the manifestation blew, and
they then came out feeling good and refreshed. These same
persons reported that if they short-cut the sauna time
because something uncomfortable had turned on they came out
feeling bad or dull and it would then take longer to blow
through the manifestation.
Even some people with very light drug histories reported
feeling calmer and more uptone after a stint in the sauna
which was long enough to permit them to get through any
restim or discomfort that had turned on.
There is everything to be said for putting a person on a
schedule which will permit him to handle these factors, and
it was found particularly important that those with heavy
or mediumly heavy drug histories were scheduled properly so
that they were able to get full return from the action and
wind up with the EP.
4. WHO DETERMINES WHAT DAILY LENGTH OF TIME THE PERSON
SHOULD BE ON ON THE RUNDOWN?
On any question as to daily schedule, the C/S would
adjudicate as to the daily time period for the individual.
In any case where the person was doing the rundown on a
special medical
program, the C/S would ensure any doctor's orders regarding
schedule were adhered to.
The C/S's first consideration would be what is going to
give the person the most gain. Wherever possible the person
would do 5 hours daily and most people have done this. In
instances where a shorter daily schedule was actually
required for best results on some individuals, the schedule
was adjusted per C/S adjudication.
In cases where persons honestly had limited time, these
were considered for the minimum 2 1 / 2 -hour daily time
period, as it would have been altered importance to deny
them the rundown otherwise. But it was necessary to ensure
that each person could and did make progress on the shorter
daily schedule as he continued it and, if not, getting him
onto the proper regimen.
Some who started at 2 1 / 2 hours daily later requested to
move up to the 5-hour period, and there have been cases
where persons on the shorter schedule were getting heavy
restimulation of drugs which they could not handle on the
shorter period, and when switched to the 5-hour period by
the C/S, they did remarkably better. This can occur,
apparently, with street-drug or medical-drug users and is
something for the C/S to bear in mind. The heavier drug
cases were, where possible, put on the 5-hour schedule to
begin with.
Again, per the survey data, correct gradient was the
watchword here, as in all aspects of the Purification Rundown.
The C/Sing of cases on the rundown would not be done rotely
but always done on an individual basis with the individual
never pushed further or faster than he could go. (To do
otherwise would be a violation of the tech of the rundown
and a violation of the tech on gradients.)
The successful action has been to get the person on a
schedule where he is winning and able to handle what comes
up and then ensure he gets in that amount of time each day
and preferably at the same time each day.
Regularity of schedule plays a big part in completing the
rundown smoothly and effectively with all the benefit to be
had.
5. WHAT REACTIONS HAVE BEEN NOTED WHEN PARTS OF THE
RUNDOWN WERE SKIMPED OR WHEN THE RUNDOWN WAS DONE
IRREGULARLY?
LIMITED GAIN PER HOUR
One of the factors examined closely in the course of this
survey was whether or not there was a common sauna
time-limit for most people (within the 5 hours) after which
the person got tired and the individual got less return for
the remainder of the period.
In those cases where the rundown was being carried out very
standardly, there were no reports of such tiredness setting
in before the 5 hours were up which were due to length of
time spent in the sauna. (Some of these cases reported they
experienced tiredness as part of a restimulation of drug
reactions, etc., but they were able to spot it as such and
blow through it within the 5-hour period. )
However, there were 24 reports from individuals stating
they did get tired in the sauna well within the 5 hours and
got limited or no benefit from it beyond that tiring point.
The daily time limits for gain reported by these 24 cases
varied widely from person to person, the reported limits
ranging from 4 hours down to 21/2 hours or less.
The individual's drug history did not seem to be a factor,
as the reports came from persons whose drug histories
ranged from heavy down to few or no drugs, medical or
otherwise.
These 24 cases were looked into carefully, and when all the
pertinent data was examined (some of it obtained by metered
interview), what showed up were departures from the
standard procedure as given in the Purification Rundown HCOBs.
The departures found were (in order of frequency):
a. Not enough sleep;
b. Insufficient salt or potassium or Bioplasma taken while
in the sauna or before running, OR a combination of (a) and
(b);
c. Dropped out vitamins that day, skimping on vitamins or
taking vitamins sporadically;
d. An undetected and/or unhandled vitamin deficiency.
In one case out of the 24 the person was found to be anemic
and he should not have put himself onto the program. This
was handled by getting the person onto a special medical
program to be carried out under medical supervision before
the rundown could be completed.
Correction of the other cases brought about smoother
progress and much improved results.
At best, any one of the above-listed outnesses or omissions
could result in the person tiring too quickly, experiencing
unnecessary discomfort, getting limited gain per hour and
prolonging the rundown unnecessarily. The apparency would
be that the rundown was not working when in actual fact it
was not being applied standardly.
Where a person on any schedule reports he is tiring at a
certain point and getting little or no benefit per hour
spent beyond that point, one would need to determine if an
adjustment of the daily time period was needed. But, as has
been found, additionally and always one would carefully
examine exactly what the person was doing on each section
of the rundown and get any outnesses rectified.
Regardless of whether the person is on the maximum or minimum daily
schedule, departures from other aspects of the procedure
would decrease the benefits until these departures were
handled.
SLEEP
In the 24 cases mentioned above and in some other cases
reporting problems on the rundown, by far the most common
outness found was lack of sufficient sleep.
This is covered in the original bulletin under the section
on a properly ordered personal schedule. However, it should
be reemphasized here that adequate sleep has been found to
be a vital factor in the correct application of this
rundown. People function best when they are sufficiently
rested.
Some tiredness has not been uncommon at certain intervals
during the course of the rundown, even when the procedure
was being carried out standardly. It can occur when the
person first goes onto the program and needs to build up to
the full daily time period on a gradient. It can also occur
as part of the restimulation in connection with medical- or
street-drug residues or as part of restim of an old
illness, etc., any of which the person might run through
while on this program. There are many cases on record of
persons on the rundown turning on and blowing through
periods of tiredness or fatigue connected with past illness
and/or medical or drug experiences and coming through them
far brighter and more energetic.
But it must be borne in mind that the Purification Rundown
can be strenuous.
Trying to do it on too little sleep would be a severe
violation. A person observably needs enough sleep in order
to cope with the changes he is undergoing. Per C/S reports,
where this has been violated the person has often wound up
having a rough time of it. Quite apart from any mere
tiredness, any reactions which are there to be restimulated
by drug residuals can (due to insufficient sleep) produce
unnecessary and nonoptimum reactions.
Adequate sleep while on the Purification Rundown has proven
to be every bit as important as it is when one is on a
routine auditing program and is part of a properly ordered
personal schedule. One obviously can't expect to make the
gains possible on the Purification Rundown unless this
point is in.
And one must be okay medically to go onto the rundown in
the first place.
SAUNA VENTILATION
Correct ventilation of the sauna is covered in HCOB 30 Dec.
79, HOW TO BUILD A SAUNA, and it is reiterated here as a must.
Improper sauna ventilation is reported as a contributive
factor in a person tiring too quickly. It reportedly can
bring on lassitude (weariness of body or mind from harsh
climate), air hunger or any number of other symptoms which
some persons have, in error, attributed to other causes.
This has in some cases prolonged the rundown or given the
appearance of the rundown being unflat when actually it was
complete.
Those immediately responsible for delivering the
Purification Rundown, as well as the executives of the org,
are responsible for ensuring the sauna has been constructed
and is being operated standardly with a sufficient oxygen
supply for the number of persons using it. This also ties
in with correctly staggering the scheduling of people for
the sauna. One wouldn't jam too many people in the sauna at
once, from the standpoint of ordinary comfort as well as
sufficient oxygen supply.
OVERHEATING AND SALT DEPLETION
An R-factor on the effects of overheating was found to be
essential for a person beginning the rundown, as well as
basic hatting on how to handle this on an emergency basis
should it occur.
The symptoms of overheating and/or salt or potassium
depletion-dizziness, feeling faint, weakness, clammy skin,
becoming overheated, etc.-are taken up in HCOB 6 Feb. 78RB,
Purif RD Series 1, THE PURIFICATION RUNDOWN REPLACES THE
SWEAT PROGRAM.
Beginning persons would need hatting on these points so as
not to confuse these symptoms with the manifestations that
can turn on when restimulation in connection with drug
residuals is occurring. It is common knowledge and a matter
of good common sense that overheating and/or salt or
potassium depletion can be prevented by sufficient salt,
potassium or Bioplasma intake and by cooling off
periodically as necessary during the sauna period. But
where these symptoms occurred, they would be handled and
not considered something the person must "go through."
Additionally, if perspiration ceases while in the sauna-the
body suddenly stops sweating and the skin becomes hot and
dry-it's an indicator that needs immediate handling. This
is a clamping down on the part of the body, a resistance to
expelling, and it is the first sign of a heatstroke.
The Standard First Aid Personal Safety booklet put out by
the American
National Red Cross covers the symptoms of heat
exhaustion/heatstroke and the immediate aid to be given for
such.
One would get the person out of the sauna at once and cool
him off with a cold or cool shower or sponging, or start
with a lukewarm shower and gradually make it cooler. Fluids
and salt, potassium or Bioplasma would be given.
This reference would be kept on hand, readily available, in
the sauna location.
Hatting on all the above points would be included in the
R-factor the person is given when he begins the rundown.
Salt or potassium depletion as a chronic condition would be
handled in liaison with the person's doctor.
NUTRITION
What showed up throughout the survey data was the
importance of the daily nutritional vitamins, minerals,
oil, Cal-Mag and vegetables and the role that these
nutritional elements play in handling, on the Purification
Rundown, the traumatic effects of the restimulation of
drugs, as covered in some detail in the original bulletin.
In each area it was observed that dropping out any of these
supplements while on the program, skimping on them or
taking them only sporadically, contrary to the program as
approved by the person's doctor, could create or intensify
deficiencies which would then throw a curve into the
rundown that would show up in any number of ways-tiring
quickly, lack of energy, upset stomach, nausea, a general
"not feeling good" or actually getting sick in some way, to
name a few.
Any omissions of these standard elements were found to
interfere with the progress and purpose of the rundown,
which is to free up the individual for spiritual
improvement by handling the restimulative effects of
accumulated residual drugs and toxins.
With the increase in numbers of those doing the rundown,
many more persons are now reported to have successfully
completed it under close supervision on the nutritional
vitamin and mineral increases, including niacin, within the
ranges given in the original research data published in
HCOB 14 Feb. 80R, Rev. 31.7.85, Purif RD Series 4, RESEARCH
DATA ON NUTRITIONAL VITAMIN INCREASES ON THE PURIFICATION
RUNDOWN, with approval for such supplements from a medical
doctor.
Many areas report it has also been helpful to have a good
familiarity with the Adelle Davis books on nutrition and
diet, as listed by title in HCOB 7 Mar. 80, DIETS, COMMENTS
UPON.
Where individual tolerances were taken into consideration under
medical supervision and any vitamin imbalance or deficiency
handled under medical supervision, as stipulated in the bulletins
on the rundown, these ranges as published in the issues on
the original research were reported to be highly workable
for most.
In areas where the rundown has been successfully delivered,
the person's originations regarding his tolerance for or
reactions to certain vitamins were never ignored. These
would always be looked into and a correct solution worked
out in alignment with the data in the original bulletin,
with the assistance of the Medical Liaison Officer in
liaison with the doctor or between the individual and his
doctor.
In reported cases where the person was having some difficulty
and some nutrient imbalance was the actual cause of the upset,
where the vitamins and minerals were properly adjusted as above
there was invariably improvement. But it was necessary to
first determine that the person actually was taking the
vitamins and other nutritional elements he was supposedly
taking and in what amounts or if he was taking them only
sporadically.
It is the responsibility of the person who has undertaken
to do the rundown to keep those overseeing the rundown well
informed as to his daily actions and the results. It is
also his responsibility to see his doctor where any
irregularity or upset indicates such. Naturally, it is also
his option to see his doctor at any point he wishes on his
progress on the rundown.
From all the reported data, it is not unusual at certain
points of the rundown for some to protest a bit at the
large quantities of vitamins taken. The protest is not in
regard to results or benefits but simply in regard to the
quantities to get down. While the niacin was always taken
all at one time, in several areas it was found most viable
to take the remainder of the vitamins at various intervals
during the day, after meals or with snacks. One medical
doctor has suggested that absorption of the needed
nutrients is better accomplished in this way. The exception
to this would be where one or more of the vitamins or
minerals had been specifically suggested by the MD to be
taken at certain set intervals.
Also reported was the datum that there is a hidden factor
to look for if a person is having difficulty, and that is
the person is not eating but is going along mainly on
something like vitamins and niacin and yogurt alone. Or he
has made some other major change in his eating habits. This
was found in one area and totally explained why the person
was having trouble on the rundown.
Departures such as this were found quite often to come
about as the result of exchange of verbal data among
persons doing the rundown, so this line was watched to
ensure the procedure was being followed as given, not
someone else's version of it or some experimentation of it
on his own.
SCHEDULE IRREGULARITIES
Probably the biggest single factor found in keeping the
person progressing smoothly on through to successful
completion of the program was regularity of the actions.
That included regularity of the timed schedule, nutrition,
sleep and the whole works.
Where any one part of the procedure was being done
erratically, it would throw the other parts out or give
that apparency, and the effect could sometimes be quite
puzzling to the C/S or to the person's doctor and others
assisting in the administration of the program.
Per C/S observation and other survey data, where people who
had otherwise been doing well began skipping a day here or
there, skimping or cutting down on the daily purification
time or missing sleep, it usually resulted in upset of some
degree.
They began to report "feeling bad" or feeling "sickish" or
actually getting sick following some irregularity or
disruption of the routine. Where this occurred, the
discomfort or upset was more severe among those with
heavier drug histories.
A possible explanation of this is that the process has been
interrupted and one is getting a backlogging of the drug
and other toxic effects rather than a routine release of
these at the same rate as when the person was on schedule.
Therefore, the person could be subject to a piling up of
the restimulative effects of these at a rate not easily
handled by him, and this could be further compounded by any
continuation of an erratic schedule.
The handling was to get the person onto or back onto a
proper and predictable daily regimen and maintain it
through to completion of the rundown.
What was stressed here was that in this, as well as all
parts of the Purification Rundown, it is a matter of the
person following the normal and generally accepted rules
for good health. He would then be in the best possible
shape to attain the lasting spiritual benefits which are
available to him. This is, of course, the sole and ultimate
objective of the Purification Rundown.
DETERMINING AND HANDLING WHAT WAS WRONG
Here are some of the more successful actions reported from
an area with high Purification Rundown completions.
Any bad indicators, odd or strange indicators, upset, etc.,
would be always picked up and handled at once.
If the person was in some heavy restimulation and just
wanted to get through it without interruption, he was not
forced or badgered but permitted to go through it easily
and gradually at his own rate and he would then come out
the other side all right. Per reports, most people know
when they are in a drug restimulation and will tell you.
In a case where the cause of upset wasn't immediately
obvious, the Purif I/C or D of P would simply sit down with
the person and talk it over to find out what was going on.
What worked very well was to have the individual himself
read over all points of the rundown as contained in the
issues and he himself would then very often spot and point
out where he went off the rails. And in most cases he would
prove to be right. It was very often found to be a matter
of something having been altered or added or dropped out
and this would be resolved by getting him back on the
correct regimen and doing it by the book.
If it didn't appear to resolve, no guesswork or
experimentation was done. The person would be sent to his
doctor for a medical check and any necessary adjustment of
his regimen.
In summary, it has been found that there are any number of
ways in which one can depart from the correct procedure and
the effects of one such departure can be similar to or
appear to be similar to those of another, which can make
some cases look complicated indeed, and unnecessarily so.
So it has also been found that it is vital to indoctrinate
the person on the standard actions of the rundown at the
outset and then do everything possible to preserve that
standardness throughout.
6. ON THE PURIFICATION RUNDOWN, HAS IT BEEN FOUND THAT
THE "ALL BLEND" OIL MUST BE TAKEN "STRAIGHT" OR CAN IT
BE MIXED WITH SOME OTHER FOOD?
Per survey data, some individuals had reported difficulty
taking the "All Blend" oil by itself, usually due more to
the texture than to the actual taste.
The handling, as there seemed to be no reason why the oil
could not be taken in orange juice or mixed with some other
food of the person's choice and taken that way, was to have
many people on the rundown do just that, with good result.
Others simply took the oil straight. (An exception, in
taking the oil mixed with other food, is that you would not
cook food in the oil and consider that the "All Blend" oil
ration for the day!)
As the oil will coat the stomach and intestinal walls for a
certain period, which can prevent the full assimilation of
other nutrients, especially the watersoluble vitamins, one
doctor has suggested that it is probably best taken before
going to bed or at least at a different mealtime than when
the vitamins and minerals are taken.
Regarding the amount of oil to be taken, this did vary with
the individual.
However, a medical doctor who is also a Scientology auditor
and Purification Rundown C/S and who has handled numerous
people on the rundown has reported that the most standard
oil dosage found to be required thus far by most persons he
has handled on the rundown is between 2 and 4
tablespoonfuls a day. Others (particularly some
250-pounders he has on the rundown) are on considerably
more oil than this.
The recommendation of this medical doctor is that on any
oil dosage one would reduce the intake if the oil showed up
in a bowel movement or in the body sweat, as in such case
there is an excess of oil which is not being put to use but
simply expelled.
7. HAVE THERE BEEN ANY REPORTS OF A DIFFERENCE IN
RESULTS WHEN NIACIN IS TAKEN IN POWDER FORM INSTEAD
OF IN TABLET FORM?
Per reports thus far, this seems to vary among different
individuals.
The observation of one medical doctor supervising the
rundown is that these variances are not unusual.
Some persons have reported more immediate and/or intense
results when niacin was taken in powder form. This
difference was most often reported by persons who had
reached the higher dosages, had little or no results from a
large, highly compressed tablet and then switched to the
same dosage in powder form and got more intense results.
However, at least two people report that they got results
when taking 100, 200, 300 and 400 mg of niacin in tablets
of 100 mg each; then, when 500 mg were taken in a single
500 mg tablet, nothing occurred. However, next day, when
500 mg were taken in 5 tablets of 100 mg each, results were
obtained at the 500 mg dosage.
Still others reported effective results from niacin tablets
of any dosage, including the larger tablets of higher dosage.
What has been done in one area is to use tablets of 100 mg
niacin each until the 1000 mg niacin dosage is reached and
to use niacin in powder form thereafter. Where this is
done, or where niacin in powder form is used exclusively,
the measurement was and would need to be exactly done.
The label on a powdered niacin container should carry
instructions as to how to measure the powder content. With
the brands that have been used, one teaspoon provides 3000
mg of pure niacin. Note that this is per the English system
of weights and measures. One would need to use the standard
measuring teaspoon. In areas of the world where the metric
system is used (and where "teaspoon" sizes vary), an amount
equivalent to a standard teaspoon measurement would be 4.9 ml.
8. WHAT HAS BEEN OBSERVED TO BE THE MOST SUCCESSFUL
GRADIENT GENERALLY IN INCREASING NIACIN ON THE RUNDOWN?
Within the boundaries of the medical doctor's advice for
the individual, the most workable gradient in the majority
of cases observed was generally found to be starting the
person on 100 mg of niacin and increasing it in increments
of 100 mg until the person was up to 1000 mg daily. A
steeper gradient was then used as one went up to higher
dosages. It was found that many persons could take
increases of from 300 to 500 mg at one time when they
reached the higher dosage ranges. Note that this does not
refer to a daily increase, necessarily, but refers to the
gradient in which the dosage was upped when an increased
dosage was indicated.
Any increase was always based on individual tolerance, and
there were exceptions to the "generally successful gradient"
described above in every area surveyed. Certain individuals
would and did require moving up on a lesser gradient according
to their tolerances and according to individual medical advices.
On the other hand, in some instances a "grinding" phenomenon
was observed where the individual:
a. held to a certain niacin dosage of, say, 500 mg day
after day until nothing whatsoever was happening
or
b. held to an increase of only 100 mg at a time in the
higher ranges of niacin, even though he was getting only
brief, mild results, was very able to tolerate these effects
and felt he could handle a steeper gradient.
By "grinding" phenomenon is meant an effect similar to
running an engram late on the chain over and over without
going earlier and the person getting irritated and
frustrated with the rundown and feeling he is not making
the progress he could be making.
In these instances, it was observed that when the persons
who could progress at a faster rate with larger niacin
increases (always with the other vitamins and minerals
increased in correct ratio and by individual tolerance) did
so, they went smoothly along on the rundown, handling what
did crop up.
In all surveyed areas, when to introduce an increase in
niacin was found to be as important as the amount of increase.
When niacin was increased:
a. after the effect of a certain dosage had diminished (not
vanished totally) and
b. when any other manifestations and restimulation which
had turned on at that dosage had blown or diminished (as
covered in the procedure given in the original bulletin),
good progress was made on the rundown on a one-for-one
basis, providing all other points were standardly in.
In other words, it was recognized that there would very
likely be various reactions and restimulations (as covered
in the original bulletin) all of which would need to be
taken into consideration when niacin amounts were increased.
When this was done correctly, excellent results were
obtained. Questions arising on such increase were handled
according to the person's individual medical approval to do
the rundown and further individual medical advices as needed.
It should be mentioned here that, along with this survey
data, reports have been received of persons found taking
niacin quietly on their own without being on the
Purification Rundown and without being under any
supervision, medical or otherwise, just to see what it
would handle. This is not advised in any HCOB. It could
result in artificially created deficiencies or in things
turning on which are not then properly run out. Also, where
a pc being audited was at the same time experimenting on
his own with niacin dosages, it could present some puzzling
aspects of the case to the Case Supervisor and could throw
a curve into the C/Sing or programing.
The Purification Rundown has been carefully researched and
piloted. It is concerned with freeing up the individual for
future spiritual improvement. As such it is a programed
action carried out daily under C/S supervision and with
medical approval for the individual to be on the rundown
and medical advices given as required. There is no issue
which advises or advocates a person experimenting with it
on his own.
9. HAS ANYONE COMPLETED THE RUNDOWN TO FULL END
PHENOMENA BEFORE REACHING 5000 MG OF NIACIN?
Per the original research and all reported survey data,
there are a number of people who have completed the rundown
to full end phenomena on dosages under 5000 mg of niacin.
Others have gone as high as that dosage before completing.
Apparently, in some areas there was, earlier on, some
misinterpretation of the Purification Rundown HCOBs to the
effect that one would be required to work up to a point
where a 5000 mg niacin dosage produced no effect in order
to achieve the EP- which is not the case. There is no
statement in any HCOB to this effect.
The end phenomena is reached when the individual is free of
the restimulative presence of residuals of past drugs and
other toxic substances. He will no longer be feeling the
effects of these impurities going into restimulation and
there is a marked resurgence of overall spiritual well-being.
The fact of having a heavy drug history does not
necessarily prolong the rundown. It can do so but it is not
true in all cases. More important than anything else is
keeping all points of the rundown in standardly,
maintaining a wellbalanced personal schedule with enough
rest and nutrients, and getting as much exercise and sauna
as possible on a routine daily basis.
On such a schedule, persons of varying drug histories - some
heavy, some light - have completed the rundown in 18 to 20 days
at 5 hours a day, reaching the EP at amounts of niacin which
differed with different individuals. Some have done so in
less time.
From reports based on direct observation, apparently what
can happen in some cases (not all) is that the residuals of
past drugs and other chemicals (sometimes every drug or
medicine the person has taken) can restimulate and turn on
heavily in the first week or 10 days of the rundown at
lower dosages of, say, up to 1000 mg niacin. It doesn't
always happen in an orderly fashion and it can be severe,
but the person will handle these drug residuals, blow
through any accompanying manifestations, and after that it
can go totally flat with no effects showing up on the
higher amounts of niacin.
Others will turn on these effects in a more graduated
sequence, one following the other, and it can take longer.
From the original research and piloting of the rundown, and
from the reports of those currently delivering it and the
personal reports from those who have completed or are on
it, one can expect any variety of manifestations to crop
up, not all of them comfortable by any means.
Where the person was on a sensible and well-kept schedule,
with all other parts of the rundown fully in, these
manifestations would deintensify and blow without undue
discomfort or hang-up. As the toxic substances became
active, he would experience their restimulative effects and
come through these periods with nice wins.
One would then see a gradual brightening of the person as
he progressed.
Reported also was the fact that sometimes, especially on
the lower niacin dosages, one could get a person coming
through some drug experience with such a sense of relief
and release and such a big win that he would report he had
completed when he actually had more to do. Or a person
would have an auditingtype cognition or a whole string of
such cognitions and mistake that for the EP. These, of
course, are excellent wins but not necessarily the end
phenomena. Big wins can be expected during the course of
the rundown, but in cases where the person was discontinued
on the strength of such a win before all the toxic
residuals had been handled, the person would come up with
more to be done and would have to be returned to the
rundown to complete it. One must be able to recognize the
difference between a good win and the actual EP.
In all those areas surveyed, where a person was progressing
well on the program he could be observed to be becoming
more uptone and aware. He would start reporting exactly
what was going on, what drug was turning on, what
impurities and restimulations he was running out. He could
usually tell if he had hit a tolerance level on a certain
vitamin. All of these are valid reactions throughout the
run. As the person would release and blow through whatever
was there to turn on, the manifestations became less day by
day, and he would reach a point where no further manifestations
were coming up. He would look and feel remarkably better,
brighter and more alert; he would have come through good
wins and he would often know and state that he felt free
of impurities and their associated restimulative effects
and originate on his own that he had done it. With all those
indicators one could be pretty sure he had done it.
The amount of vitamin and mineral nutrients, exercise and
sweat-out it has taken and will take to accomplish this on
the Purification Rundown is an individual matter.
There is no hard-and-fast rule laid down anywhere that says
a person must work up to 5000 mg niacin before he is complete.
10. WHAT IS THE "WIND DOWN" THAT FOLLOWS PURIFICATION
RUNDOWN COMPLETION?
There is no such thing, unless one would give that term to
the action of coming down off heavy vitamin and other
nutrient dosages on a steep gradient, rather than abruptly,
following Purification Rundown completion, as suggested in
the original bulletin (HCOB 6 Feb. 78RB).
In one area it was found that this section of the bulletin
was being misinterpreted to mean one gradiently did less of
all the elements of the Purification Rundown-i.e., less
sauna, less exercise, less vitamins, etc., each day-and
this was being called a "wind down." This is not stated in
any of the HCOBs and is not a valid action.
The suggestion that is made is that one doesn't abruptly
simply cease the extra nutrients he has been taking but
comes down from high dosages on a steep gradient to what
would be a moderate daily normal requirement for him, per
medical advices.
And that along with this some moderate daily exercise will
help him maintain good health.
Continuing all the elements of the Purification Rundown
would amount to continuing the rundown itself past the
point of valid completion and, further, would delay the
person getting onto the auditing he is programed for as
his next step.
ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS ON END PHENOMENA AND NIACIN
Certain additional questions have arisen regarding the end
phenomena of the rundown in relation to niacin which should
be taken up here so that the data is broadly known.
The first of these is:
11. CAN THE RUNDOWN BE CONSIDERED FLAT IF THE PERSON
SEEMS TO HAVE REACHED THE EP AND IS GETTING NO MORE
MANIFESTATIONS TURNING ON OR NO OTHER CHANGE
OCCURRING BUT STILL GETS A SLIGHT RESULT FROM 5000 MG
NIACIN?
The person could very well be complete, but there are
several factors to be looked at regarding this point.
The person could be hung up on some outness in the early
stages of the rundown which would show up on a full review
of his Purification Rundown history. One could do a full
inspection of his folder, particularly in the area of
minerals and vitamins, what effect they had, were these
dosages standard and kept in the proper balance, was the
rundown administered standardly and done regularly. The
person could be interviewed as well, and you might find
some outness such as he doesn't like vegetables, he never
eats vegetables, etc., etc. So parts of the rundown could
have been violated and this could be showing up in the
manifestation described above. It may be that he has some
deficiency which has been bypassed and thus some sort of
hang-up was created. There is the possibility that if the
rundown hasn't been done properly throughout, one could get
such a hang-up. And with that there's a possibility of some
deficiency alongside it which won't allow a complete
discharge. A medical check would be done if the folder
shows irregularities to determine if this is the case and,
if so, to get it remedied. Getting any such deficiency
remedied and getting all points ofthe rundown in standardly
would bring it to successful completion in a case where
such outnesses have existed.
There is also the possibility that the person simply has
more to do on the rundown.
And there is the possibility, and this may be by far the
most common, that the person has reached the EP and is in
overrun.
If he has done the rundown standardly and has reached the
end phenomena as described earlier in this bulletin and in
HCOB 6 Feb. 78RB, the chances are he is complete on the
rundown despite the fact he is still getting some slight
result from 5000 mg of niacin.
It is possible to overrun the Purification Rundown if one
is not well aware of what is to be looked for in the end
phenomena. There have been cases of overrun where the
person was continued for some weeks at 5000 mg (5 grams) of
niacin with nothing more turning on than a slight effect.
And there have been cases of overrun that occurred at less
than 5000 mg of niacin.
The possibility exists here that if the point of completion
of the rundown is reached and bypassed the person could
begin to dramatize a niacin flush. It would be like any
other bypassed condition, such as a bypassed F/N. The
condition tends to hang up because it is not acknowledged
or signalized to have ended. This is simply an educated
guess as to how this could occur, but it is also borne out
by careful study of several cases on record where bypass of
the EP and overrun did take place.
After the person has been on the regimen for some time, has
come through good changes and is handing you the indicators
of the EP, carrying him on the rundown for 6 or 7 days with
no further effects at any dosage is really an overrun. In
some of these cases it appears that 5000 mg niacin isn't
doing anything that 3500 mg of niacin didn't do.
To repeat, the end phenomena can and has been reached on
5000 mg of niacin and on dosages of lower than 5000 mg.
Once the drug and chemical residuals are handled, they're
handled. The person will feel the difference.
Upping the dosage does not necessarily find more to be
handled. And continuing the person past the EP can hang the
whole thing up and produce a slight effect as a
dramatization, either sporadically or each time the niacin
is taken.
This can then become confusing to the person himself and to
the C/S. If the overrun is continued, you'll see the person
begin to go downtone, even if only slightly. His indicators
become a bit less bright, he may become disheartened. He
may now be efforting to produce some result that isn't
there to be had and begin to feel the action is
interminable. Certainly the person will appear less
enthusiastic about the whole procedure and may begin to
protest it. The picture now looks as if the rundown is
unflat whereas what has happened is that he achieved the
EP, reached a point where he felt great, was getting no
further manifestation of any kind (if even for only a day)
and the fact was not acknowledged but bypassed. Overrun
phenomena then sets in.
C/Ses report there have been a few cases who "rabbited"
(wanted to run away from continuing the rundown to its EP
because it was uncomfortable or out of other
considerations) and insisted they were complete after a
very few days at low niacin dosage when little or nothing
had yet turned on. But these cases were few and easily
detected and handled by bringing them to a better
understanding of the rundown and its purpose and what it
does. In two such cases where the persons were allowed to
attest after too brief and skimpy a run, they both went
into drug restimulation which should and would have been
handled routinely on the rundown. After full review of
these cases, with medical participation, they were put back
on the rundown and completed it properly.
Judging from reports, including the many personal reports
received, by far the majority are eager beavers who can't
wait to turn on something on the rundown and blow through
it. They report drugs, medicines, anesthetics, alcohol,
restimulation of various biochemical reactions, somatics or
other manifestations turning on and blowing, and they
report them all enthusiastically and with great relief and
look for more! Such cases will often know and tell you when
they've honestly reached the EP.
One C/S also reported he had had cases on his lines where
the person from all indications was complete and stated he
was complete but wanted to continue a bit longer "just to
make sure." Allowed to go on, these cases promptly got into
overrun phenomena, went downtone and were getting no
change. In each case, when all was checked out, it was
found the EP had been reached at the point the person
stated he was complete. So it appears that on the
Purification Rundown, just as in other rundowns, it doesn't
do to continue past a valid EP. Should it happen, it is
handled simply by having the person spot when he did
complete and acknowledging it.
What also showed up in the survey data was the rare bird
who would try to handle his whole case on the rundown and
who looked for some result above and beyond the EP of this
rundown. Such a case would need to be given a very thorough
R-factor on the rundown and be carefully C/Sed, with
medical liaison as necessary, throughout.
It was found important to make real the fact that all that
is being looked for here is the person free of the
restimulative effects of past drug and toxic residuals so
that the person can then be audited with optimum gain and
spiritual enlightenment.
It is up to the Case Supervisor to know each case, to be
familiar with the progress of each case, to keep the
medical liaison lines in, and to know well the indicators
to expect when the end phenomena has been reached so that
it can be acknowledged and validated.
Another question that has come up with some frequency is:
12. WHAT COULD ACCOUNT FOR A PERSON WHO HAS GENUINELY
COMPLETED THE RUNDOWN WITH NO NIACIN REACTION AT
5000 MG (OR LESS) THEN GETTING A REACTION LATER AT
LOWER NIACIN DOSAGES?
Such a reaction, where the person has actually done the
rundown standardly to its end phenomena, does not mean the
rundown is unflat.
To understand this reaction one needs a good understanding
of the bank and how it works. The specifics of what has
happened in these instances can be quite variable, but what
you are looking at here in general is that there has been
an environmental shift or change which produced another
type of bank key-in.
To begin with, we are living in a two-pole, a two-terminal
universe. (Ref: HCOB 8 June 63R, Rev. 3.10.77, THE TIME
TRACK AND ENGRAM RUNNING BY CHAINS, BULLETIN 2: HANDLING
THE TIME TRACK) It takes a two-terminal situation to hang
something up.
On the Purification Rundown we are looking at two things:
one, the actual drugs and toxic residuals in the body (and
medical autopsies have shown that they are there) and two,
the bank mock-up or facsimile of the drugs, drug residuals
and their effects.
These two conditions are hung up - one of them playing
against the other, in perfect balance. What the person is
feeling is the two conditions, one of them the actual
presence of the drug residuals, the other the bank mock-up
of them. The thetan can actually, via his bank, mock up a
perfect synthesis or a counterfeit of drugs. So you are
getting two reactions here, one of them a total counterfeit
but no less real to the person, nevertheless. The
counterfeit is just bank restimulating and, oddly enough,
the bank can approximate practically every drug there is
under the sun. The bank can also approximate the effects of
radiation and it will look just exactly like a
physiologically caused effect.
I don't think the bank can necessarily key in a
physiological reaction where an actual physical basis for
such has not existed somewhere on the person's track. It
can deform or change positions or rates of metabolism. It
can change endocrine conditions and therefore can change
various bodily conditions. And it is true that a thetan can
mock up a facsimile strongly enough so that it hurts.
Probably the reason why the Purification Rundown works is
that it handles the one side of it and thus fixes the
person up so that the other side, the bank facsimile side
of it, is no longer restimulative or in constant
restimulation. It's as simple as that.
What, amongst other things, is happening on the
Purification Rundown is that you cause an upset of this
perfect balance and suddenly this balance goes b-z-z-z-t!
The balance isn't there anymore so you don't get the
cross-reaction anymore.
But it takes auditing to totally erase the bank. In other
words, while the balance has been upset, all of the bank
facsimiles are not gone. They're not keying in and they're
not being reinforced by the presence of drug residuals but
they're not necessarily blown.
A thetan can mock up anything. Thus, as the person is
coming down off the rundown on gradient niacin and other
vitamin dosages, he can hit an area where some factor in
the environment can cause the facsimile to go into
restimulation again. You can get a bank reaction which, so
far as anyone could tell, would be absolutely identical to
what the physiological reaction would be.
It doesn't mean there are still accumulated residuals. It
is that the bank or facsimile side of this two-terminal
hang-up isn't necessarily flat. It was flat for that period
of time. Now the person drops back, moves into another
environment, another period of time, probably goes out in
the sun and gets himself a nice sunburn or something of
this sort, and his bank cross-reacts.
That is the basic theory behind this type of manifestation.
Upon completion of the Purification Rundown, the person is
now in good shape to receive auditing and get optimum gain
from it. Auditing is what handles the bank.
When the Purification Rundown is completed and the person
has fully flattened Objectives, the Drug Rundown is his
next step, and it is on the Drug Rundown that one handles
the mental and spiritual reactions from drugs. An OT would
(after OT III) be given the OT Drug Rundown. Or if the
person is on NED for OTs, he would receive the NED for OTs
Drug Rundown.
Thus, we are not looking at an endless run on the
Purification Rundown. We're seeking simply to handle the
drug deposits and toxic residues in their restimulation and
reinforcement of the bank, and vice versa. And by breaking
up the balance of these two and handling the one side of it
on the Purification Rundown, we are freeing up the person
to handle the other side of it, the bank facsimile side of
it, in auditing- and successfully.
With these factors handled, the individual is now ready for
all the spiritual gain that can be achieved in his future
processing.
_______________
If these summarized findings are of interest and helpful to
those in the many, many areas where the Purification
Rundown is being delivered, I am pleased to be able to give
you this data.

The Purification Rundown has as its sole purpose the
handling of the
restimulative effects of drugs and toxic residuals on a
spiritual being. The Purification Rundown is a spiritual
activity based on and administered according to the
doctrine and practices of the religion of Scientology as
set forth in the writings of L. Ron Hubbard and adopted by
the Church. No part of the rundown is intended as the
diagnosis, prescription for or treatment of any bodily or
physical condition or ill. The Church is not responsible
for the handling of any bodily or physical condition or
ill, it being the responsibility of the individual to seek
the competent medical advice and treatment of his doctor in
such matters.

________________
The term "co-auditing" is an abbreviation for "cooperative
auditing."
A CO-AUDIT IS: A TEAM OF ANY TWO PEOPLE WHO ARE HELPING EACH
OTHER REACH A BETTER LIFE WITH SCIENTOLOGY OR DIANETICS
PROCESSING.
It is a cooperative action toward a very worthwhile goal.
The co-audit is an early Scientology and Dianetics innovation.
It was the bright idea used in the early days to. get
auditing done in more volume and on a broader scale than
would ever have been possible on a one-for-one basis at
that time. It was also a means of training the many who
were demanding training in this new technology, and
providing them with the opportunity to get their own cases
handled while at the same time giving them a subjective
reality on the processes they were delivering to others.
It was then and is today a very valuable tool.
Co-audits are our quickest and most economical way of
restoring vitality and purpose to the society, something I
know all Scientologists are working with me to achieve.
Co-audits can handle the many, staff and public alike, who
are reaching for those auditing actions meant to bring them
up through the next levels toward Clearing and who are
willing to bootstrap their way up through these levels.
THE PURPOSE OF A CO-AUDIT IS TO GET CO-AUDITORS UP THE GRADE
CHART.
Co-auditing is not a limited activity. Any pair of
Scientologists who have the interest and desire to help
each other up the Grade Chart can co-audit.
CO-AUDITING OF SPECIFIC RUNDOWNS
Rundown co-audits are especially designed co-audit packages
set up to permit co-audit team members, regardless of their
training or lack of it, to audit each other through the
full steps of a specific rundown.
Included in a rundown co-audit would be any and all study
and training steps needed to prepare co-auditors to
successfully audit each other to the full EP of that
specific rundown.
The Method One Co-audit is one example of a specific
rundown co-audit. The checksheet for this co-audit (HCO PL
25 Sept. 79R III) provides the technical theory and
practical steps necessary to enable two co-auditors to take
each other through Method One Word Clearing to full
completion and EP of the action. It is a very popular
action, easy to do, and gives tremendous case wins. It does
not require professional auditor or word clearer training;
one can simply do the Hubbard Method One Co-audit Course
Checksheet with a twin.
Other co-audit packages on specific rundowns may be
released from time to time. These rundown co-audit packages
would be carefully planned and tailored to include the
minimal but correct and necessary training gradients for
delivery to public as well as staff.
This does not mean that, in the absence of such a package
for a specific rundown, co-auditing could not be done.
Auditors trained in the skills of a level or a particular
rundown could co-audit that rundown, provided they are at
that level pc-wise and training-wise. The co-audit would
need to be organized and be properly supervised and C/Sed
throughout, but the organization could be as minimal as
providing a set-up for one such co-audit team.
PROFESSIONAL CO-AUDITS
A professional co-audit is a co-audit between auditors
trained on the skills of a level who are auditing each
other on that level. (A nonprofessional co-audit is one
designed for co-auditors who have not had professional
auditor training.) Professional co-audits have long been a
favored and highly successful method whereby Scientologists
can move up the auditing and training sides of the Bridge.
Professional co-audits are for auditors who are doing the
Professional Training Route and for auditors who have
completed their training but haven't themselves moved up
the Grades.
Academy and Saint Hill Special Briefing Course students
could and should co-audit and get themselves up the Grade
Chart as they go, in pace with their training.
Professional co-auditing can be done following each auditor
training course. It can also be done on special co-audits
set up by orgs so that these auditors can continue to
co-audit under the supervision of org tech terminals and
use org facilities.
Such co-audits for public students would be charged for at
a nominal rate and would include C/Sing, etc. A student can
get all of his Grades and New Era Dianetics auditing on
these co-audits.
NOTE
Orgs do not have the license to offer public nonprofessional
co-audits on Grade 0-IV processing or on NED (New Era Dianetics).
Training courses are already very much streamlined.
Any public interested in co-auditing the Grades and New Era
Dianetics should be routed onto the Academy Levels and the
NED Course where they can rapidly complete their study and
get onto the professional co-audits.
Thus an org's concentration as far as public co-audits go
would be on Div 6 co-audits, any specific rundown co-audit
packages and professional co-audits on the Grades and New
Era Dianetics.
STAFF CO-AUDITS
Staff co-audits are by far the most advantageous method for
an org to ensure its staff get and stay in good case shape
and move on up the Bridge.
A well-run staff co-audit is the answer to the problem of
how an org gets all its staff audited.
The staff co-audit can be arranged to be done by trained
staff auditors (teamed with each other) and/or untrained
staff (teamed with each other).
It can include any processing from the beginning of the
Grade Chart up through New Era Dianetics as well as
processing on special rundowns designed for co-audit purposes.
In the case of untrained staff co-auditing, this would
ideally begin with the TRs and Objectives Co-audit Course.
As part of the co-audit, the staff member would first be
trained on TRs for co-audit level and Upper Indocs and then
co-audit with his twin on a full battery of Objectives, as
directed by the C/S.
Following this, the untrained staff co-auditors would need
to be gradiently programed and C/Sed and taken step-by-step
through the next Grade Chart action on a"read-it, drill-it,
do-it" basis.
"Read-it, drill-it, do-it" means:
1. The co-auditors twin up and study and check each other
out on the basic issues and skills for the process or Grade
to be audited.
2 . They drill the actual actions involved in running the
process, under tight supervision of a trained Co-audit
Supervisor.
3. They then audit each other on the process to EP, under
the tight guidance of a trained Co-audit Supervisor.
Do you want to see an immediate upsurge in staff morale,
activity level and enthusiasm? Establish a staff co-audit!
GUIDING FACTOR
The Grade Chart is the guiding factor in any co-audit. One
doesn't audit a pc on processes or rundowns above his Grade
in violation of the Grade Chart, regardless of where the
auditing is done or whether it is an HGC type of action or
a co-audit action.
On any co-audit, the process to be run is determined by the
C/S and he uses the Grade Chart as the basic pc program in
each individual case.
HCO PL 23 July 69, AUDITOR ASSIGNMENT POLICIES, and HCOB 21
Dec. 79, AUDITOR ASSIGNMENT POLICIES, CRAMMING ASSIGNMENT
POLICIES, provide the guidelines for pairing up co-auditors
of comparable case level and training level.
SUMMARY
Co-audits are for use. They spark immediate interest. They
quickly bring people up to doingness. There is no better
exchange for the auditing one gets than to deliver it to
another and that in itself produces gain. They are the
fastest, most satisfying method of getting lots of auditing
delivered, of making lots of Releases and providing actual
auditing experience.
If you want to turn your org scene into one of a bustling
beehive of activity, get your co-audits established and
running. It is within the means of any org to do so.
