Well, yes and no to this, IMHO.
I'm sure Dennis is right in so far as the mass will destimulate to a great
degree, but bear in mind that what is keeping such a mass in place is not
merely the idea that one needs to regard it as being "trivial". The entire
thrust of Hubbard's approach on this is that the mass is held in place by an
underlying postulate which is very specific to the time and place of the
incident and also to the goals of the person involved.
By doing what is suggested by Dennis here is really to counter one earlier
postulate with a later one. So I don't think it is the best approach to this
sort of thing. It would be better to expose the original postulate and then
recognise it for what it was.

Well, in prepping for doing Level 5 by reading and re-reading over
and over again, I came across this truth by Dennis.
"The entire secret of making any mental mass vanish is to re-evaluate
its importance to present time realities to the point where it is
considered so trivial that there is no longer any need to keep it in
existence; at which moment the mass can be easily not-known and will
promptly vanish. [On the other hand, ]While the mass is considered
important, it will continue in existence and the being will continue
to know it - even though trying desperately to not-know it.
To try and vanish by means of force a mass while still holding the
consideration that it is important is thus the height of stupidity
and can only lead to frustration and failure.
Thus we see that the re-evaluation of past importances is the only
step required to achieve the vanishment of any mental mass. As a
successful psychotherapy can be defined as a system that brings about
the vanishment of unwanted mental conditions, we see that this data
is vital to our goal.
The ability to assign and un-assign importances, while native to the
being, will be found to require some attention on the route out."
For ease of reading I have interjected the phrase found in brackets,
i.e. [...].
