************* The following message is relayed to you by [email protected] ************ Hi Aarre,
(by the way, is that a Finnish name?) Thank you for your kind words. I'm not the guardian of the TROM tech. I followed the discussion and merely decided to offer my opinion. I feel if we all exercised a healthy level of caution and restraint in these matters there would be never be a need for any guardian, and there would be no risk of the original manual being altered over time and potentially becoming lost (in its original form). Earlier today you suggested to change the sequence of chapters and add material between chapters to prevent out-gradients. I know you did so with good intentions. But, again, this would be altering the original manual. Wanting to help others better understand TROM is an honourable and noble impulse. Personally, I find nothing wrong with creating supplements or study aids. But I think these should not be put 'in' the original manual. Perhaps they would be better suited in a separate section of the tromhelp site and each aid or supplement labelled as such (so whoever reads it knows it's not part of the original manual) and always referring the person back to original manual. In the end, TROM is not terribly complicated and is certainly not beyond the grasp of any reasonably intelligent person, regardless of their philosophical background. Besides, one can always do some follow-up research and look up terms they don't understand. Have faith in people's ability - especially those that are 'seekers'. And if they don't make it for some reason, well...Slim's post entitled 'The Pill' put it nicely, and it is a very valid viewpoint. I mean, take the Qur'an, for example: many, many muslims learn Arabic just so they can read it in the original Arabic. Think of the effort that takes. That is far, far harder than an absolute layman (without any Scientology background) studying TROM. The same applies to Jews studying the Torah in ancient Hebrew. I'm not suggesting TROM is comparable to these, but, as a mere example, you get the idea. On a different note, and I realise this is in contrast to what Denis wrote about planetary clearing with TROM, I don't think everyone can do it - do TROM. Take Scientology, for example: there's this huge organisational structure aimed at getting people up the bridge, with staff that help you and push you to do your next step, with books and courses, from the most basic to the most advanced, with a gradient that's supposed to make it a smooth and safe ride. And yet few of those who walk into a church become Scientologists. And very few Scientologists make it to clear, and even fewer to the OT levels - in spite of the support structure. Well, there is no support structure in TROM; you're supposed to go it alone (though there is the TROM list). So that gives you an idea on how many people will do TROM. Dumbing it down, simplifying the manual won't change that (it didn't change it for Scientology, with all its basic courses and services). Be grateful that you found TROM. Those th at seek will always find. Phew, that was quite lengthy. I'm sorry, man. I am, after all, quite the chatterbox.
