14 June 1997 RI-568i 'Correct and Joyful Confessional Procedure - Part IV' from Ambassador for Mankind Message # RI-568i for Internet "The meanest thing you can do to a person, to any person, is NOT TO FIND OUT his non-survival acts. But it is 'normal' social practice to claim and do to people exactly the opposite." "The answer is simple and very, very, very basic: People like to make it seem right - more or less, or completely - that they did something that was non-survival." 'Ambassador for Mankind' You will need an UNDERSTANDING of Part I, II and III of the Correct and Joyful Confessional Procedure, in order to do the steps of the Confession. The Confessional questions are: Step 1. "WHICH NON-SURVIVAL ACT OF YOURS WOULD YOU LIKE TO CONFESS, NOW?" Step 2. "TELL ME ABOUT THAT ACT OF YOURS TILL YOU YOURSELF ARE SATISFIED WITH DESCRIBING IT TO ME AS A NON-SURVIVAL ACT." Repeat step two till satisfaction of both confessant [person who confesses] and confessor [person guiding and listening to the Confession]. Back to step one if no satisfaction. Step 3.P (3.Preliminary) "IF THIS IS NOT ONE PARTICULAR TIME OR ONE PARTICULAR INCIDENT, THEN TELL ME THE ONE TIME OR THE ONE INCIDENT THAT YOU ARE NOW MOST INTERESTED IN CONFESSING ABOUT." Again, till satisfaction. If no satisfaction, go back to step one. These steps, step one, two and three Preliminary, are extensively described in the previous issues (Part I, II and III). Step three consists of two questions: Step 3. A. "WHO NEARLY FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS NON-SURVIVAL ACT OF YOURS? B. "WHAT DID THIS PERSON DO TO MAKE YOU FEEL THAT HE KNEW OR TO MAKE YOU WONDER WHETHER HE KNEW?" C. Repeat 3A, 3B, 3A, 3B, etc. till a Release occurs for the confessant. Step 4. "HOW (ELSE) DID YOU JUSTIFY THIS NON-SURVIVAL ACT?" Repeat till a Release occurs. NEARLY FOUND OUT The results for the confessant of doing step three seem miracle and magic. But the mechanism is easy to understand: Whenever someone NEARLY finds out about his non-survival act, he creates some confusion in himself in order to oppose his NATURAL inclination (and hidden desire) that his act IS found out. The meanest thing you can do to a person, to any person, is NOT TO FIND OUT his non-survival acts. But it is 'normal' social practice to claim and do to people exactly the opposite and even to claim that "that is how a friend behaves". (see also USP-028 'Tact and diplomacy in "handling" a Suppressive' 31 Jan 94 http://Art-Org.com/ri-bulletins/usp-028i.htm) The non-survival act has already a lot of confusion in it, which should - with the next step, step four - become unconfused. But each time that his non-survival act is NEARLY found out, he creates some confusion on top of it. The non-survival act becomes more and more clouded and buried in confusion, and he tends to become very irrational about what he did - he becomes more and more irrational and confused about an already irrational and confused non-survival act that he once committed. He starts to irrationally blame and attack others - who nearly found out - for "forcing" him to lie, for "making" him confused, actually for causing him to be confused about his basic desire not to hide his non-survival act anymore. Therefore you ask "WHO ALMOST FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS NON-SURVIVAL ACT OF YOURS?" and then "What did this person do to make you feel that he knew or to make you wonder whether he knew?" This gets off the layers of piled-up confusion - exactly that extra confusion that is making it too hard to unconfuse the actual non-survival act itself which is all the time 'nearly found out'. It can be a lot of work, to do step three, but it is also a lot of fun, both for the confessant who confesses and for the confessor who hears the Confession. JUSTIFIED IT HOW? When both you and the person you are doing this Confessional with have finished laughing your heads off about all the silly things that came up in the answers, you do the next and last step, step four. Step 4. "HOW (ELSE) DID YOU JUSTIFY THIS NON-SURVIVAL ACT?" Repeat till a Release occurs. As in step three, you get an answer and you acknowledge the answer (the answers can be quite silly or quite horrible, but you, as confessor taking the Confession from the confessant, keep a straight face and just acknowledge the answer. You don't accuse him of anything, you don't tell him how silly or how incomprehensibly stupid or evil he was, no matter what his answers are.) You keep this up, on step four: Ask the question, get one or several answers, acknowledge the answer(s). Ask the question, get one or several answers, acknowledge the answer(s). Etc. Now WHY do you ask this question? The answer is simple and very, very, very basic: People like to make it seem right - more or less, or completely - that they did something that was non-survival. You have to know - or believe me - that people basically know what is a survival act and what is a non-survival act, no matter how confused they may seem and act on the subject. So any self-realization course or therapy, that - no matter how "great" and "powerful" it makes you, as the courses offered by Tony Robbins, Alan C. Walter, Harry Palmer or Werner Erhardt want to convince you that they do - does NOT build on survival acts and non-survival acts, and that does proceed in a manner of therapy and training or meditation in which one is NOT required to see and at least partly dissolve the problems that others have with others and that others have with themselves, (see RI-857i-AS 'Telepathy Course - the Processes - Summary' 2 June 97 http://Art-Org.com/ri-bulletins/ri-857as.htm) will either not improve you very much, or, when it does indeed make you "great and powerful", it will make you into a seemingly powerful, but self-centered, dominating type that derives "power" and influence from actually betraying those 'below him', in some way and disguise. (see RI-602i 'Definition of Power' of 20 June 1996 http://Art-Org.com/ri-bulletins/ri-602i.htm) TRUE NATURE OF A BEING Step 4. is "HOW (ELSE) DID YOU JUSTIFY THIS NON-SURVIVAL ACT OF YOURS?" This is a very, very basic question. It is so close to the actual and true nature of a being, that it is great fun to answer (and to ask) such a question, especially when repeated till a Release occurs. Even in social life, it is a MARVELOUS question to ask someone - if you know what you are doing (if you know what the non-survival act is). You spot a non-survival act, and you ask the person 'How did you justify it?' or 'How is it right what you did?'. They will almost always answer. If you ask a rather alive, aware and responsible person, he will probably burst out in laughter and thank you for giving him a great question! And that is step four. BACK IN COMMAND OF HIMSELF It brings a person back in command of himself as regards that non-survival act. And if you know - or can believe me - that all criminality stems from people not being in command of themselves, their actions and their thoughts, then you can appreciate this very much. (see also RI-750i 'Crimes are not motivated by money' of 30 Nov 1996 http://Art-Org.com/ri-bulletins/ri-750i.htm) It is a most magical question (step four), and if the claim of my friend and enemy L. Ron Hubbard that he devised the question, is true, then I must acknowledge him for that. OPTIONAL EXTRA STEP Now, if you still want to undo more confusion of that particular non-survival act, you do Step 4. A. "HOW (ELSE) DID ANOTHER OR OTHERS JUSTIFY THIS NON-SURVIVAL ACT OF YOURS?" and repeat that till a Release occurs. That's especially if you want to be extra thorough on a non-survival act which others have strongly justified FOR him - such as addictions, compulsions, stupidities, sexual perversions, diseases, etc. etc. according to what the society at a particular time considers justified aberrations. NEXT NON-SURVIVAL ACT You continue the Correct and Joyful Confessional by taking up step one again, as I described in RI-541i 'Correct and Joyful Confessional Procedure - Part I' of 20 Apr 1996, updated 14 June 1997 (http://Art-Org.com/ri-bulletins/ri-541i.htm) RI-542i 'Correct and Joyful Confessional Procedure - Part II' of 2 May 1996, updated 14 June 1997 (http://Art-Org.com/ri-bulletins/ri-542i.htm) RI-545i 'Correct and Joyful Confessional Procedure - Part III' of 20 May 1996, updated 14 June 1997 (http://Art-Org.com/ri-bulletins/ri-545i.htm). Have lots of fun! To end with, I still would like to put your attention on RI-514Ri 'Confessionals and Blackmail - VERY IMPORTANT' of 16 Mar 1996 (http://Art-Org.com/ri-bulletins/ri-514i.htm).
