Mike posted this on Ifachat,
I thought it had some good data, so I thought to post it here:
LRH: Begin
"As Man all too easily specializes in stops he tends to stress what
SHOULDN'T be done. While this enters into it, remember that it's a STOP.
STOPS ALL OCCUR BECAUSE OF FAILED PURPOSES.
BEHIND EVERY STOP THERE IS A FAILED PURPOSE.
A stuck picture or a motionless org are similar. Each has behind it a
failed purpose.
THERE IS A LAW ABOUT THIS-ALL YOU HAVE TO DO TO RESTORE LIFE AND ACTION
IS TO REKINDLE THE FAILED PURPOSE. THE STOPS WILL AT ONCE BLOW.
That law (it comes out of OT VIII materials) is so powerful it would
practically revive the dead!
It applies to orgs.
It applies to cities or nations.
When you diverge from a constructive purpose to "stop attacks", the
purpose has been abandoned. You get a stop. The real way to stop attacks
is to widen one's zone of responsibility. And pour the coal on the
purpose. Thus all attacks one makes should be in THE DIRECTION OF
ENLARGING ONE'S SCOPE AND AUGMENTING BASIC PURPOSE.
Thus, in the case of Scientology orgs one should attack with the end in
view of taking over the whole field of Mental Healing. If our purpose
was this then it had to be this on all dynamics. We only got into
trouble by failing to take responsibility for the whole field!
We'll win back by reasserting that responsibility and making it good.
Targets, to that degree, are purposes.
Purposes must be executed. They are something to DO.
OT
Let us look at the definition of OT-cause over Thought Life Form Matter
Energy Space and Time.
As one falls away from that one becomes a SPECTATOR, then one becomes
an effect. Then one is gone.
One causes things by action. Not by thinking dim thoughts.
One can be doing an IN basket as simply a spectator.
In the society today spectatorism is very common. Magazine writers,
reporters write weird pieces that look at how odd things are. The writer
doesn't understand them at all. He just watches them.
Spectatorism is not so low as total effect.
The total effect-no cause-person has mainly a case. He doesn't even
look.
Thus there is a gradient scale of OT. It's not an absolute. One is as
OT as he can CAUSE things.
One of the things to cause is target attainment. When somebody can push
through a target to completion he's to that degree OT.
People who don't push targets are either just spectators or they are
total effect."
