I went to the beach the other day to help my friends do Dianetics stress testing

03.03.07 (2:52 pm) [edit]

I don't know if you've ever seen this done but if you ever get a chance you should make sure you check it out. If you don't happen to see anyone set up on the street in your neighborhood you can always stop in to a Scientology Mission or Church and get a demonstration there. I am always amazed at how interested people get in the fact that this test really works and they can literally see what is causing them stress and what they can do to effectively help them with this.

Anyway, to give you more details on what this is, the test is done with an E-Meter, which is a religious artifact (artifact just means it was man made) routinely used by Scientology counselors in locating areas of stress/travail. The person doing the test, just with the use of this E-Meter and not even needing to know what the persons life situations are can point out when a reaction occurs on the E-Meter. People who are tested most often want to watch the dial themselves during the test and can see the results for themselves.

During these tests there is obviously a wide variety of situations that come up. Family situations, financial problems, regret of wrong actions done in the past, etc. And then the person is shown in the book Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health that something can be done about it.

I talked with literally about 50 people that day and when I talked to them they were all very appreciative of the service we were offering. I personally got a lot of satisfaction in seeing all manner of people with a wide range of responses both before and after the test when I knew I could help them. People who said they didn't have any problems in their lives (but really they just weren't particularly conscious of them until doing the test) or were less open about it, to people who literally broke down in tears over situations in their lives and didn't know what to do about it. I knew that just having someone there to communicate their problems to and understood them was helpful but I also knew that when they read the information in Dianetics they would understand why they were getting themselves in to these situations, how they had gotten themselves in to these situations in the past and what they could do to be more in control of their lives in the future. And that they would be finding these things out for themselves, and realizing for themselves what they were going to do about it.

As a note, while I was out there, there were a small percentage of people that walked by (without knowing what we were doing) and thought we were just trying to make money selling a book. Most of the people like that were just these obnoxious types of people that will yell out and degrade anything they don't understand. Some of them that I could actually talk to I explained to them that you can get this book in a Library for free and that I didn't make any money from the sale of the book. And I invited them to try it out for themselves, when people saw I was sincere they were a little embarrassed and saw the sincerity in what we were doing.

Regardless, I had a lot of fun that day and made a bunch of friends. People I may or may not ever meet again but hopefully improved the lives of.

I agree. There's nothing as rewarding as helping someone with Dianetics or Scientology. It's still amazing to me,even though I've been a Scientologist for many years, how simple it is to resolve problems and live better just by applying a little bit of what LRH discovered about life.
