BODY THETANS If you are a Scientologist reading this then you will have heard of "thetans". "Thetans" are you and me that animate a body. But have you heard of "body thetans"? This is the big secret on the OT levels and a very silly secret at that. You may have heard the idea that going Clear is going Clear only on the First Dynamic and that in doing the OT levels you go Clear on the Third Dynamic. I bet you have heard this from one of the travelling Registrars from Flag. Well, the Third Dynamic is about groups, right? But what group are they talking about? I will tell you.
It is these "body thetans". On OT III you will be told that you are full of "body thetans" - degraded thetans who were once people but are now clustered together along with you and inhabit your body along with you.
You and I are supposed to be the leader thetan of these body thetans.
The story you are told of how this came about is about the worst piece of science-fiction ever dreamed up. 75 million years ago there was supposedly a ruler of this part of the galaxy named Xenu. To cure overpopulation on all the planets he controlled, the story goes he had most of the people on all the planets called in for an income tax audit when they were instead paralysed by injection of an alcohol and glycol mixture into their lungs and then they were packed up in refridgerated units and loaded onto DC-8 identical space-craft and taken to Earth (called Teegeeack then) and packed around the bases of a few volcanos.
Then they were all nuked together. After this the thetans who were flying around in the winds were caught in electronic beams and frozen toghether in blocks. Then they were taken to huge 3-D cinemas and shown folms of what life should be like on Earth. After that they supposedly clustered together with a lead thetan in chanrge and they ended up inhabiting bodies in these clusters. Hence although we are a single thetan we supposedly have about 2,500 other lesser "body thetans"
attached to our own thetan self. And OT levels III through VII go through the process of freeing ourselves from these body thetans at huge expense.
You know that OT IV is the OT Drug Rundown? Does it not strike you as odd that this is on that level since you will have already done the Purif. before you go Clear? Well this Drug Rundown is not for you. It is for the body thetans who took recreational drugs in their past lives. It is supposed to get them up to the point where they can be auditied in the same way as the Drug Rundown and Purif. got you up to the point where YOU could be audited. And you know OT V is New Era Dianetics for OTs. But I am sure you know that you can not run Dianetic processes on someone whi is Clear. So how come you can run a form of Dianetics on an OT? There is no contradiction since the Dianetics is not for the OT themself. It is for all the body thetans inside of him who are not yet Clear. This is why the OT levels are referred to as going Clear on the Third Dynamic. Because the "group" is this group of body thetans.
The whole point of doing the OT levels is to return to you your supposedly lost OT powers. These body thetans supposedly stop us from demonstrating these OT powers and so they must be exorcised. And you will have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to do this. And when you are on OT VII you will additionally have to pay thousands of dollars every six months for sec checks. And if you don't come out of this six monthly sec check you have paid $6500 all smiles then you will have to pay for another one and another one until you finally do come out smiling and are allowed to get more of your body thetans to leave your body.
Are you going to go through with this fiasco? Are you going to hand over hundreds of thousands of dollars to go through this? And what of these OT powers? When did you last see an OT levitate something into the air?
The truth is there are no OT powers and there is not such a thing as an OT. Just deluded people who have been bullied out of their money.
So if you are a Scientologist and this has got you worried about the nature of the movement you have joined then drop me an e-mail. If need be I can send you the OT III material and the OT V NOTs if this will help you make up your mind about whether you want to stay in or not.
Life is short. You will only have one chance at the best years of your
life for living, loving and earning money. Do you really want to
dedicate yourself to a movement only to find out when you are 35 years
old or older that it was not for you? You will have wasted the best
years of your life if that is the case and you will never get those
years back again. I think you should CONFRONT this thing here and now.
