tangled maze of the PFC."

It takes an exceptional individual to understand and
do Level 5 and you would be that if you do the basics exactly.
The
baby steps come first and by your statements and what you present on
this list, you have not done any of that fully to completion.
If you mastered the
basics of TROM following Dennis's instructions you would know that
Trom works.
Start at RI, do it fully as Dennis instructs - no
short cuts.
Then do Level 2 fully and completely and you would be able to move on
to Level 3 and complete that and know that Trom tech works. As
Dennis states you do not need to know how the upper level tech
works. You just need to do each level for itself and
complete it to end phenomena. The understanding and
application of the higher levels will be knowable when you are at
that point because you will be more intelligent on the whole subject
of TROM and the mind, as your own mind won't be in the way, as it IS
now.
Skipping to higher levels without fully completing lower basic levels
creates potential for overwhelm and unworkability.
All you need do is included herein below.
Start quote Dennis :
“Right now you are like such a long-term prisoner
regarding your own mental mass. You’ve come to believe that you
need it, and so will pull in round yourself more mental mass to
replace that which the exercises causes to vanish. Thus, we have
to repair the importances we vanish with self-generated importances
or the being will soon get himself into a frightful mess. He will
find himself in possession of highly persistent aches and pains he
knows not what of, as well as a host of other unpleasant emotions
and sensations. This mechanism, if not understood and allowed for,
will sooner or later bring any psycho-therapy to a grinding halt.
The researcher was thus led to believe that his therapy was of no
use; when, in fact, it was working all too well...
So, the Repair of Importances (RI)
Commands:
a) Bring something into
existence.
b) Have another bring something into existence.
a) is run over and over until there
is no more change; then b) is likewise run. Then a), and then
b)
again, until both produce no more change.
The creations should be placed around
you 360 degrees spherical. You don’t have to do anything with the
creations; the act of creation is sufficient. Quality of creation is
far secondary to quantity of creation; abundance is of the essence.
There are alternate commands:
a)
Create something.
b) Have another create something.
The word ‘create’ is for many
an emotionally charged word, and these people will find the preceding
commands easier. They mean the same thing.
Third alternative:
a) Create an
importance.
b) Have another create an importance.
Many will prefer this set, and
should use it.
In passing, those who have followed the theory so
far will have realized that one sure way to louse a being up is to
convince him that he cannot create. Once he is convinced of this lie
he is, of course, trapped forever - not only in the universe, but
in the compulsive playing of games. In the final instance only his
creativity will free him. Thus, the ‘entrappers’ of this universe
basically sing only one song: ‘Thou cannot create’. They don’t
have to sing any others; this one is quite sufficient to do the
trick. Its a mournful dirge and appears under a myriad guises.
While running RI it is not
necessary to perceive one's creations. The certainty that one
has created is sufficient. Lack of perception is a very poor proof
of non existence. (There are many Chinese stirring their rice pots
in Peking right now. The fact that you cannot perceive them doing
so is no proof that they aren’t there doing it.)
Early on many beings find
themselves plagued by ‘non-perception’ screens, which
prevent them from perceiving their own creations. As you progress
through the levels you’ll become more and more aware of these
screens. Finally you’ll vanish them, and thereafter be able to
perceive your own creations. Some beings have always been able to
perceive their own creations - often in glorious Technicolor - and
will wonder why I’m making such a fuss about all this. These
notes aren’t for you, but for the being who has got himself
backed up hard against a ‘no-perception’ screen
- either one
of his own, or someone else’s. (Refer to Theory Section for more
detailed information on the subject of screens).
There is another class of RI called
RI by perception. This is where the being repairs his scarcity of
importances by increasing his contact with, and reality of, an
existing importance in the pt [present time] physical universe. As
any solid object has a residual importance postulate within it, we
therefore see that a being can repair his scarcity of importance by
physically contacting such a solid pt physical universe object.
Grasping such an object with your hands and feeling its solidity,
temperature, texture etc., will repair importance. Many beings who
have difficulty with the creative RI commands will be able to use
RI by perception. Any being who can use the creative RI
exercises will also be able to use RI by perception, but should
use the creative version by preference. Any being who can only use
RI by perception early on should from time to time during the Levels
have another go at the creative versions. Sooner or later one will
‘click’, and thereafter should be used in preference to the RI
by perception method. The only difference between the two methods is
that in the creative version the being is actually generating the
importance. He’s got to be able to do this eventually, and the
sooner he gets onto it the better. RI by perception will work alright
up to the top of Level Four, but Level Five, being intensely
destructive of mental mass, really does require the creative
version to permit its successful completion.
The immediate effect of running RI
is to de-intensify any compulsive games condition you are currently
engaged in, whether with your mind or with life in general. It
‘cools’ the game. Thus, the exercise is an extremely valuable
one for a being to use at any time. It de-intensifies stress of
all types, and is infinitely preferable to the taking of drugs for
this purpose. Use it. (Just before you sink the meat-axe into your
mother-in-law’s skull pause and run a little RI; you’ll find
you’ll be able to put the axe away.)
RI also has this remarkable
property:
You cannot over-run it. Being an entirely natural
ability of life, its quite impossible to harm yourself in any way by
running RI. It stops producing change after a while, but further
running of it does not produce overrun symptoms. However, RI can be
badly under-run when it is required. This is a definite pitfall, and
one you should avoid.
The main use of RI during the exercises is
to act as a lubricant. It keeps things going smoothly. It should
be used in generous amounts. It must be used at the following
times:
a) Between the ending of one exercise and the start of a
new one.
b) At the end of every session.
c) At the beginning of
every session.
d) During the session if the going gets rough -
i.e.. you suffer an intolerable amount of unpleasant sensation.
Bluntly, these exercises will not
work in the absence of RI (Level One is the only exception to this,
but as Level One is almost entirely perceptual RI the rule still
applies). In the absence of RI the exercises will very soon grind
to a shuddering and rather painful halt.
When in doubt - run RI. Whenever
you run creative RI in session always run both commands to no
further change. Do not leave it while it is still producing change.
The second command is just as important as the first. Do not leave
either while they are still producing change. The exercise will run
down’ your stock of importances; use RI to repair it. Thus,
although RI is run to no further change, just the doing of the
exercise will make it produce changes once more. Early on
your tolerance of loss of importance is very slight, so RI will
have to be run frequently; later your tolerance increases
enormously, and you have a much wider latitude in these things.
However, never will you be entirely free of the necessity to run
RI as an adjunct to the exercises until you’ve got to the very
end of Level Five and achieved Nirvana.
Level
Two.
Purpose: To find the past. To exercise the being in
evaluating the past to the present.
Now I’ll be brutally honest with you.
If you need this level running badly it's going to hurt. It all
depends upon how severe the compulsive games condition is between you
and your mind. If you’re rather chummy with your mind the
exercise will be a breeze, and you’ll enjoy it as well as deriving
benefit from it. However, if you are a mass of so-called repressions
and inhibitions you are in for a hot time of it. You’ll probably
be absolutely sure that you are going to die before you’ve got your
teeth a couple of inches into this Level. There’s nothing like
Level Two to separate the men from the boys. Crack this one, and
the rest is easy. However, the Level must be done, for there’s
no other way to get a being to be able to Timebreak.
Use RI liberally. Don’t be a
martyr - run RI when the going gets rough; you’ve nothing to gain
by suffering any more than you have to. This Level is designed to
crack the compulsive games condition you are currently in with
your own mind. It does it with ruthless efficiency - to the
full extent you are currently capable of achieving. But I’ll
tell you this: once you come out the other end you’ll have lost
all fear of your own mind. You’ll know with absolute certainty that
there’s nothing it can do to you that you can’t handle. You’re
over the biggest hump.
The being who has successfully completed
Level Two has said good-bye to separate therapists: he now knows he
can do what has to be done alone. If this technology ever becomes
lost to mankind it will only be because some faint hearts could
not confront the horrors of Level Two, and so will change it all
into something pleasant - and useless. Never miss it: Level Two is
the only barrier that sits between mankind and the attaining of
Nirvana. He cannot face Level Two, and so he goes to a
separate therapist to help him through it - never realizing that
by so doing he has negated his own responsibility in the matter,
and so doomed himself to failure. He must do this step alone, or
he’ll never be able to cock a snook at his own mind; there is no
other choice.
So Level Two will be a baptism of
fire for many of you. So be it. Press on. I’ve known the successful
completion of this Level to cure chronic alcoholism in a being all by
itself, so the results are well worth attaining. Remember: you’ve
lived through the original of whatever your mind has to throw up
at you, so you can live through the recall of it, The last thing you
do before you expire is -run RI. Then you won’t expire. Get it?
Then you continue on with the exercise. Get it?
Commands:
a) Select a
non-significant past scene.
(Masochists can select a significant
one.)
b) Select an object from this scene.
c) Find an object in
pt (one you can see with your eyes) that is different from the
past object.
d) How is it different?
Repeat c) and d) (Its
permissible to use the same pt object over and over again if
you wish) until no more change; then:
e) Find an object in pt
(one you can see with your eyes) that is similar to the object in
the past scene.
f) How is it similar?
Repeat e) and f) until no more
change, then repeat c) and d). Continue until both c) and d), and
e) and
f) produce no more change.
g) Select a new past object,
either from the same past scene or a different one.
Repeat c) and
d), then e) and f) with this new past object until no more change.
Continue the exercise, using more
and more significant past objects, until no more change occurs
with any past object you care to select. Now do the exercise with
past persons. Select them one at a time, and complete the exercise
with each person. Continue until no more change occurs with any
past person you care to select.
As you do this exercise, and the
compulsive games condition between you and your mind begins to
break down, you’ll find that it becomes progressively easier to
place the ‘then’ and ‘now’ objects side by side for
comparison purposes, until you are quite easily able to view both the
‘then’ and ‘now’ objects simultaneously. You are learning
to Timebreak. By the time the exercise has gone null you’ll be
an expert Timebreaker. Don’t rush the exercises; nothing is to be
gained by so doing. Once started on a past object or person you
should persist with the object or person. To change around all the
time will not make it easier for you; you are just prolonging the
agony - and the exercise. Run the changes out as you go, that is
always the fastest way.
Remember: you are running out a
compulsive games condition between you and your own past. The
exercise continues to produce changes as long as this compulsive
games condition is highly charged; as the compulsive games
condition quietens down, so the exercise ceases to produce change.
You end up feeling quite different about your past - quite friendly
towards it - as well as being a competent Timebreaker, and so
ready for Level Three.
End quote.
Your statement about the PFC chart is completely invalid in anybody's judgment
in that it is obvious you have not fully gotten the EP of RI, Level 2, Level 3
or Level 4 and you are complaining about Level 5.
If you can not do level 2 to completion, level 3 aint going to fly either. If
level 3
was completed, you would be exstatic about it, not grousing about Dennis and
the PFC. So where your trouble lies is within these exercises and or properly
duplicating and completing them, not level 5, not Dennis.
This is a TROM
help list. You possibly need help with RI / level 2 if you are having trouble.
Also level 1 - objectives well delivered may be needed.
These are the areas you might be addressing on this list in order to be helped
on the TROM "HELP"
list.
Pointing this out is an effort to help you, though I will expect you may not
see it that way. But I hope you do.
I am currently working with 2 people coaching through the aspects of TROM
levels, and have no time for any others for the foreseeable future, except as
time allows on this list, as I do TROM for myself otherwise. Maybe someone whom
has completed level 3,4, or 5 on this list could work with you.
But if you are rabid against Dennis / TROM as has been demonstrated, others may
not feel you can be helped or want to help with that attitude.
Otherwise do your best to get honest help on this list, not bring down its tone
level for those whom sincerely are seeking help, arrive here, and then find an
attacker of Dennis / TROM = wrong list = TROM "degrade" list.
Keep on TROMing
Ralph
