THE PRACTICE OF SCIENTOLOGY


[image]
In a Scientology course room, people study Dianetics and Scientology materials at their own pace with the help of trained Course Supervisors. Students practice the application of those materials to improve their own lives and help others.

SCOPE OF TRAINING IN SCIENTOLOGY

The broad scope of Scientology is divided into numerous courses, ranging from introductory courses that teach basic principles, to more extensive ones that train auditors, to courses which contain knowledge about the ultimate capabilities of the thetan, to those that cover the full philosophic and technical materials of Dianetics and Scientology. There is much to know but all of it is knowable and as one learns more, his view of life becomes clearer and more understandable.

At the heart of all instruction in Scientology are the auditor training services offered in the Academy of Scientology in any church.

Scientology Academy training gives one an understanding of man, his potentials and the difficulties that confront him, far in excess of anything taught in the humanities or social sciences. Here, one becomes aware of how Scientology principles apply to situations anywhere in life. With this knowledge a person understands why some people are successful while others fail. He understands why one man is happy while another is not. He knows why some relationships are stable and why others fall apart. Life is not a mystery to someone who has studied Scientology. In this respect, training offers every bit as much personal insight as does auditing.

All lives are occasionally beset with trouble. A child falls and gets a scrape, the drinking problem of a neighbor’s wife is discovered, a friend’s business is failing, a parent becomes ill. The trained Scientologist can bring to bear what he has learned in the Academy to any situation in life and he can do something about it.
