“Dianetics:
The Original Thesis” is the first
book of Dianetics.
It was
originally written for the medical community, on whose patients L.R
Hubbard had
developed and tested his discoveries, it was titled Abnormal Dianetics
for the
fact that it revealed the single source of all abnormal and irrational
behaviour. The book was
not offered for official publication.
It was
originally circulated to a few friends of limited number in a
manuscript form.
It was soon copied and passed from friend to friend, before the ensuing
demand
from word of mouth concluded in the only way to answer the enormous
number of
inquiries. That answer was “Dianetics: The Modern Science of
Mental Health”.
“Dianetics:
The Original Thesis” is a manuscript that pulled no punches
and made the professors
blush with its definitive and well weighted balance of scientifically
clinical
demarcation and intentionally educational commentary so even a layman
could
understand and apply it.
It delineated and explained in plain gallant english the
fundamentals of life.
When I say life I
mean 1. The condition that distinguishes
organisms from inorganic
objects and dead organisms, being manifested by growth through
metabolism,
reproduction, and the power of adaptation to environment through
changes
originating internally.
This
newly restored and republished book covers
the primary axioms, explanations and descriptions of the parts of the
mind, capabilities
of, how it functions and how further developments led to an easily
workable technique.
These results are covered in the explanation
given for a stable human state called Clear - the intelligence,
abilities,
aptitude, non-susceptibility to illness and injury are raised well
above normal
into a whole new state of being called the state of Clear.
The
nomenclature is common, apt and supported by a full glossary, even when
detailed whys within fields like nuclear physics require clarification.
Subjects include; the common denominator of all life, the principles of
survival,
the anatomy of the mind and it’s functional parts, the source
of all irrational
behaviour, how and why the developed counseling technique works and the
laws
and use for one’s native ability of Returning.
This is a small
teaser from the subject of the discoveries and principles of the mind:
“Unconsciousness”
is a condition wherein the organism is dis-coordinated only in its
analytical
process and motor control direction. In the physio-animal section of
the mind a
complete time track and a complete memory record of all perceptions for
all
moments of the organism’s existence is
available.”…
“But as the complexity of the order
is increased into the animal kingdom, the physio-animal mind attains
more and
more command of the entire organism until itself begins to possess the
second
section of the mind.
All animals possess, in some slight
degree, an analyzer. This, which we
designate the analytical mind , is
present even in lower orders, since it is that section of the mind
which
possess the self-deterministic coordinative command of the
physio-animal
mind and
thus of the body. In a rat for instance, it is no more than its
“conscious”
awareness of now applying to
lessons
of then, without rationality, but
with instinct and painful experience. This is the analytical section of
the
mind in a lower animal, but it is the reactive
mind in a man, whose analytical mind is so highly attuned and
intricate
that it can command entirely both the physio-animal mind and thus the
body.”
By L.R
Hubbard “Dianetics: The Original Thesis”.
The primary axioms of Dianetics and the fundamental discoveries of life force contained in the book give any student a bright torch to illuminate the dark and hidden corners in all fields of study.This text is recommended for those learning tertiary subjects such as cytology, chemistry and physics.
