If there exist, for every 'still-Scientologist,' an estimated two
hundred Ex-Scientologists, then an ode (song, poem) to them
- to those who have left the cult and to those who certainly will
leave it -
is quite in order.
There are several metaphors, below, which you might enjoy.
Quite accidentally, you might appreciate the understanding with which
these have been surrounded.
We start with the ode, which refers to those having freed themselves
from L. Ron Hubbard's way of looking at people, and from how he
treats people
once he forced them to 'think,' that "he must tell
everyone what to think and do and know and not know," and
that "everyone must become a Scientologist, and comply with
him, and made not to see what he actually is, but must be
made to admire him above all."
And that is then supposed to save the planet,
not from L. Ron Hubbard.
Saving the planet would be to save it and its
population FROM L. Ron Hubbard.
Indeed, inside Scientology you will find some sort of
miniature North-Korea, complete with unpaid staff and
gulag camps and gulag rules and enforcement, a complete
lack of conscience and destruction of compassion,
all "to protect the group from all the
evil and suppressive persons" who do not
like Hubbard's con game and crimes
against people, and his tremendous lying
and destruction of truth about himself
and about his actual intentions,
as is well covered on countless web-sites that
are dedicated to exposing the cult, even when
those are merely scratching the surface of the
iceberg...
Now to the 'Ode to Ex-Scientologists,' which, in its metaphors,
summarizes all the web-sites - including Scientology's own - about
that cult:
'Happily they have escaped -
from laying-batteries,
(a model of efficiency - amount of eggs you get
per scoop of food - no chicken must refuse;
and after all, far more important than a stroll,
the future of the species is - and is at stake now
too)
but happily, and free now once again,
they can enjoy the sun,
and pick a worm or two.' *(0)
They HAVE escaped Scientology, but they refuse to face L. Ron Hubbard,
and they refuse to face earlier and rather similar lies. *(1)
Hence the metaphor.
Actually, it is all very confusing (if you happen to read both sides,
in their newsgroup *(2) for instance):
The "Scientologists" and the "ex-Scientologists" and their
newsgroup -
all the apparencies that - at first glance, and as each intends
it too - make each side, taken on its own, and at face value,
seem
"totally right" and "totally genuine." *(2)
So, as you asked, I once again will unravel the confusion, and
publish it now,
so that, if they again confront you with such confusions,
you get the idea not to bother me, but just to read the
things I have written.
People have INTENTIONS - what they write and say, does not at all
necessarily reflect those intentions - so you look at THEM, at their
intentions, and then you read what words they use to express these.
*(5)
Yasser Arafat says "He is the elected head of the Palestinian
people" and "He fights for a Palestinian state."
Well, you can be a chicken and just look at the grains he gives
people to pick,
OR you can look at him, at his intentions,
and find the actions, the hidden actions as well as the
refused actions that indeed follow from his intentions,
should you have any care for people at all, rather than, with the
one currently called Dalai Lama, "to be friendly."
There are those (category 'one,' we will call them) who DO want to
face evil,
and thus the Criminal Minds have to 'catch them' - that is, Criminal
Minds do make them indeed "fight evil" and "expose evil:"
Only it is the WRONG "evil" that they are given to fight.
And it is made certain that they do not notice that.
And it is most fiercely enforced: 'They must follow
command-intention'
with a total domination (that they call 'Keeping-
Scientology-Working,' a means of total domination)
of what to think and what to feel - stamping out any
wandering thought or feeling;
and they must deny, or label as incorrect, any
inadvertent meter read-out of their lie-detectors,
and they must refrain from anything that is, as they
call it, "off-purpose" or "out-ethics"
when it does not directly or indirectly execute
the aim of complete domination of all of Earth
and of all its governments.
And the responsible-type Scientologists are only allowed to
expose very minor evils, that then are blown up to the
required order of magnitude and hailed and applauded as
'Big Wins.'
And those actions then are sold to them as "winning over evil"
and as "their exposing evil" and "restoring good." *(3)
There are the others (category 'two' we will call them), who just want
to have a comfortable or 'happy' life for themselves and others,
(they want to get rid of their headaches, so to speak,)
but not by protecting life from evil and not by eradicating evil
- not by facing and exposing Criminal Minds, that means. *(1)
Both types can be drawn into the cult of Scientology by Hubbard by
means of his false claims and a tremendous amount of lies,
and by other mechanisms you prefer not to know about.
Category 'one' is more difficult to get out of Scientology, because
they are more easily believing the accusations and lies thrown at
them about their
"Not being good enough and having to improve," and that "They can
do much better and they can work much harder to help people"
- which is true, so any decent and responsible person
can see and admit the truth of it, and so it can
be used for mind-control, by applying it to a lie
that they were made to accept and to follow -
they are - with methods not unlike those in North Korea -
accepting, that they must be working much harder, on that,
what
they are tricked, and continuously deceived into
believing,
"is the (only real and efficient and lasting, working) way
to help people." *(4)
These - the kind of hard working category of people, baited and
trapped by the very desire to be responsible - sense a lot of truth,
and exactly that truth, and their desire to help people
and their knowing very correctly that people are almost
fully down and are kept down at the bottom of the spiral
of less and less awareness,
makes them that more susceptible to the lies of L. Ron Hubbard,
his lies which are precisely designed to play the only
instrument Hubbard CAN play:
The organ of deception and confidence tricks and
sleight of mind,
backed by a force and Energy that is, again, not
something any Scientologist or Ex-Scientologist
desires to even imagine exists, but which is
very simple to understand by means of
Fine Particle Physics. *(0)
Category 'two' (the people of category 'two') who hoped to be helped
and who believed the glossy lies and promises at face value, and who
thought to find in Scientology "a safe space" which is "free of
Criminal Minds," and even "free of lies" (how wrong can one be), they
also after they leave Hubbard's mental terror organization,
are not interested in truth or in facing and exposing evil and really
protecting life, even if they say so in order to seem brave,
- they would not go out and remove a Saddam Hussein, or a Yasser
Arafat, to give a very current example -
but they are more on a general course of "escaping suffering."
And they are disposed to accept the lies from the Criminal Minds,
(lies originating from India, indeed) that
"they eventually will escape suffering if they behave well and
friendly, for long enough, to enough people." *(1)
They are very kind and friendly and understanding, but you do not
want these people as friends, and they know that I look rather
easily through their "friendliness,"
because as soon as the tiniest breeze raises its head, they
flee below deck, and blame you for spoiling their sun-bathing,
and tell each other, that not their inability to stay oriented,
but, that "you make them vomit."
And they happily agree on all those lies amongst each other, and
so they remain what they prefer to be:
'They can enjoy the sun, and pick a worm or two - and
please you with their feathers.'
They are as arrogant as category 'one' - only they are
'diplomatic' in it,
they do not have the force to show and defend their
arrogance openly, but underneath their friendliness and
love and light,
they hate anyone who makes them actually look at and thus handle
life.
Again, these people are not the friends you want to have,
but they are very nice and friendly and understanding
...as long as truth is kept at an arm's length, or
rather still, at a stone's throw.
They "handle" evil by not feeling it, by not sensing it,
they "have their own 'reality' or 'their own Universe'," and also
Hubbard did tell them those lies, that
"everyone has their own Universe, and then they have a
common Universe IF they agree with each other."
(Lies they greedily gobbled up and still consider true,
despite the use of the telescope by Galilei, now several
hundred years ago already. And I saw a documentary about
an off-shore oil-rig, and these people did not seem to
be drilling into a merely-agreed-upon illusion or 'maya.')
In other words, by making themselves unaware, they "handle evil,"
which indeed for a short time may put them in Samahdi (in full
Euphoria, in "Enlightenment") or into Nirvana,
till they can not hold off AWARENESS of what exists, and
they can not keep up destroying their own nature anymore,
their own nature, which is, of course,
to be aware and to be part of life,
of what IS, of what really happened and
who caused it,
which is truth.

I am sure, however, that
