SCIENTOLOGY AND DIANETICS

L. Ron Hubbard describes Dianetics and Scientology in this light: “It was inevitable that a man who spent his youth in Asia and who studied at the mathematics and physical science of the West would become interested in the mind, and any such man combining what he knew would probably have discovered Dianetics and Scientology.”

“Dianetics is that branch of Scientology which deals with mental anatomy.”

“Scientology is an organized body of scientific research knowledge concerning life, life sources and the mind and includes practices that improve the intelligence, state and conduct of persons.”

That Dianetics and Scientology have contributed something is attested by the fact that by them we can raise the intelligence quotient of a person about one point per hour of processing (simple mental exercises) — a thing which was considered impossible a few years ago. Their stress is on ability and, with them, the general skill and efficiency of a person can be raised and the raise can be tested by very severe regimens and can be found to be stable.

There are many thousands of people using these subjects professionally in the world, and many others of the healing professions have used these skills more or less without credit.

Concerning sudden recoveries from illness, L. Ron Hubbard said, “I saw miracles in India and China done by holy men, but long association with them convinced me that they didn’t know entirely how they did it. I set out to find out from nuclear physics a knowledge of the physical universe, something entirely lacking in Asian philosophy. I made a few discoveries and we have been applying them. I believe any student given a similar background could have done the same thing. I just happened along at the right crossroads.”2

HCOB: What is Scientology? (1959)

Scientology is the science of human ability and intelligence. It was developed over a third of a century by Doctor Hubbard, American nuclear physicist and leading world authority on the subject of life sources and mental energies and structures. The Hubbard Association of Scientologists International assists and forwards his work and is a charitable nonprofit organization with thousands of professionals […]

Scientology, in less than a decade, has become the world’s primary study of man and the mind and has today more offices and practitioners than all other nineteenth century practices combined. 1

HCOB: Man Who Invented Scientology (1959)

(The following article appeared recently in the London City Press. It may be used by city offices and area offices for information to papers.)

[…]

The HASI and all its concerns is founded on the work of one man, L. Ron Hubbard, engineer, explorer, nuclear physicist and writer. Holding in his mind a knowledge of Eastern thought gained in his travels, his instruction in psychology from a medical doctor who had studied personally under Sigmund Freud, and his training in mathematics and nuclear physics, L. Ron Hubbard found himself convalescing in hospital towards the end of the Second World War, after a distinguished career in the United States Navy.

[…]

The publication of Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health in 1950 started, not just a publishing house, but a world movement. The long-ignored work of one man now suddenly affects the lives of people from Malaya to Manchester. And the HASI becomes a very busy organization indeed.1

Book: All About Radiation (dustjacket claims) (1957)

aar-1967-cvr

ALL ABOUT RADIATION

Atomic Radiation is a subject which interests the minds of every thinking man and woman of this world.

In this book we have the sane and sober views of a Medical Doctor on the physical facts and consequences of the actual atomic blast and the diseases resulting from it.

L. Ron Hubbard, one of America’s first nuclear physicists, famed author and explorer, has comprehensively analysed these facts and related them to human livingness, governments and the security of the world.

These facts when presented at the Congress on Nuclear Radiation and Health at the Royal Empire Society Hall, London, so impressed Parliamentary figures that they requested immediate transcription of these lectures. Here they are presented to the reader in book form.

This book satisfies the urgent need of a systemized and factual knowledge on the subject of radiation and its effects.

This book is vital to the survival of your possessions, your family and the future of this planet. Read it, get copies of it to your friends.1
