Subj: Miracle?

Dearest Friends,
Thought I would post this "win" which some might call a miracle.
Six weeks ago I was asked to consult with a young man who had previously done some Scientology services but wasn't currently active. This young man who we'll call "Bob", was "gay", HIV positive, and he knew that something was really wrong with his life.
His sexual orientation wasn't a problem to him and his medical condition was of surprisingly little concern to him. In the course of our two hour meeting, I helped him to locate exacty what from his viewpoint was truly "ruining his life". As it turned out, Bob was stuck in a real problem. On the one hand, he was trying to live his life, achieve his goals, be successful as a college student etc. On the other hand he was very dedicated to the goal of STOPPING HIMSELF AT ALL COSTS! He had no clue as to the whys and wherefores of his condition. I did.
I enlightened him on an "auditing rundown" known as the "False Purpose Rundown" which LRH specifically develoloped to handle this variety of "ruin". The False Purpose Rundown, or FPRD as it is more commonly known, is an extremely powerful and effective procedure.
Although it can be delivered to those with relatively little previous auditing, it is in fact a byproduct of LRH's "upper level" research. As I went over this material with him, Bob really came alive as he gained a rudimentary understanding of his situation. Subsequently he signed up for an auditing program which consisted of necessary "set-ups" followed by FPRD.
Today I Iearned that after about 25 hours of auditing he is no longer HIV positive. His doctor concluded that as unbelievable as it may sound, all his previous tests must have somehow been in error because such things just don't happen. His "T cell" count (a measure of immune system function) which had been in the 30s (extremely low) is now also normal.
In relating this "win" to several people who are well trained in the technologies of Dianetics and Scientology I noticed that their responses were of the "That's great!" variety. In relating it to those not technically trained, the responses were of the "Oh my God, a MIRACLE!" variety. The point is simply that when confronted with an advanced technology, those with little reality on that technology view its products as miracles or perhaps as fraudulent)uds, while those intimately familiar with the superior technology and with its theoretical and philosophic underpinnings view those products as normal and expected. It doesn't take too much looking to realize that we live in a techno-barbarian society. While the "hard sciences" are sufficiently advanced to land men on the moon, the generally accepted "social sciences" can't cure even the mildest of mental or spiritual maladies, much less keep our schools and streets free of drugs and violence.
Lest someone read the above and interpret it as a claim that "Scientology cures aids" , I'd like to point out that Bob received his auditing program specifically to handle a spiritual ruin. The technologies of Scientology and Dianetics are not intended or promoted as cures for physical ailments. In fact those seeking to handle medical problems are referred to an MD.
There are however "assists" and "assist auditing" programs which address spiritual factors and by so doing assist the body's natural healing processes. These are often done in conjunction with standard medical handlings.
In a culture that believes itself to have evolved from mud, it is a somewhat startling and new idea that by addressing man as a spiritual being, dramatic change for the better can be brought about in the physical aspects of life.
"Thought is boss".
Love,
Jim
