Hi Guys!

Guess what?  I JUST GOT MY FIRST E-METER!!!

I'm so excited!  I can hardly wait to learn to audit someone with it.
Many other big wins since I last posted here...

1.  I'm now back on study, and on Objectives @ CC Nashville!!

2.  Doing very well in business, and I fully expect to make a quarter
million in '93!  Scientology Tech almost makes it to easy!

3.  I also expect my SMI mission starter package to be delivered in
a few days!  (Know anyone who would like to go on staff?)

One other question, I would like to ask the scientologists...

Have you ever noticed, that if you are exterior and you look at your
body it feels... well (sickening?)  I seem to remember LRH writing
somewhere that auditors should not make the PC put his attention on the
body while exterior.  Anyone know the exact reference for this?  Also, any
source data on why it occurs would be especially apprecited.

This is why I want to know...

Last night I was talking to my girlfriend and her mother.  My girlfriend 
and I were lying on the floor, and her mother was sitting in a chair
across the room.  Her mother was complaining about her back trouble, and
I observed that she was very low tone, and was confronting with the body.
I decided to do something about it, so I went exterior and got in comm
with the thetan.  She came very uptone, and felt a lot better.  Scientology
miracles as usual.  It was a big win!  But what happened next was 
something I have never experienced before, and I would like your point of
view and any appropraite tech reference.  While exterior and sitting on the
ceiling, I looked at the ceiling through the body's eyes.  I don't know if
I suspected to see myself or what, but it struck me as terribly funny that
I couldn't see myself up there.  I had never before looked where I was with
the body's eyes.  I entertained my self with this for a few minutes, and
this is when I noticed that it is very uncomfortable (almost painful in a
sickening sort of way) to put your attention on the body while exterior.  
Is this a case situation?  I hope it can be cleared up, because the idea
of looking at the body while exterior makes me uncomfortable.  Perhaps
I should just hurry up and go OT so that it won't bother me.

I'd really love to hear from any Scientologist about this.  Also, how about
sharing your wins?!!  I know that certain individuals will want to 
invalidate your gains, but that can be handled.  By the way, the operator
at my site showed me how to filter out any messages from known SPs, so 
that doesn't even have to be considered!!  

A buddy and I are having a contest.  We are having an "up the bridge" race.
Basically its a race to GradeV, last one there buys the CCRD for the first!
Anybody want to participate in a game like this?  I know Scientology costs
money, and when you are less able, you are more likely to think that its
a lot of money or that its unconfrontable!!  This is NOT true.  Its your
consideration--your case--thats all!!  Get on course, get trained, and you'll
be winning and moving up the bridge.  Get your havingness up, and the money
isn't such a big deal.  How do you think these OTIVs, and OTVs, etc...
can afford to donate for their Ls and the rest of the bridge at once?

Don't you think its interesting that the people who complain the most
about the cost, are the people who need Scientology the most?  Their 
havingness is so low!  There is no way they could ever confront the donation
for Key to Life, so they just insist that it must be a rip-off.  Also,
their evil purposes prevent them from being able to confront the idea that
man might go free!  (Read a HCOPL or HCOB called Jokers and Degraders)
Its a little sad, that they will have to be the last to go free.  They 
might not even make it at all.

Go up the bridge!! Survive!!
