You said: "However, the necessity of an "anchor in present time" can be questioned. (The idea that an anchor in PT is a necessity is eventually solely based on the postulate thereof. If enough people agree with it, it finally will become reality.)" When the student of the mind starts taking his mind apart he needs to work from a firm foundation. Hubbard noted this in some of his writings where any confusion can be resolved if you take one point in it and fix it as the anchor point and note the movement of all other items in the confusion as moving relative to this fixed point. So if the student is going to take apart the confusing mess that is the mind he has to have a fixed point to work from. The agreed upon reality which is present time is this fixed point, this foundation. Once the student has done enough book and bottle or touching walls to get a firm grip on the agreed upon reality of present time then he can take apart his mind with the assurance that if things get chaotic he can grab ahold of PT reality and wait till things calm down again before proceeding. For the spiritual being time does not exist. He simply is. For the physical universe time is a necessary component as matter and energy must continually change in order to exist. If they stop changing they cease to exist. Time breaking is just the student realizing that he is only affected by the content of his mind in present time. It is an illusion that the stuff that happened in the past is effecting him now. So the student is just changing his viewpoint on when the content of the mind is. It is now, in present time and can be changed by the student deciding that the mind is no longer going to bother him in present time.
