Incident (Scientology)
An incident in Scientology beliefs is something that happened to a person that continues to have a grip on their mind or spirit, and is negatively affecting them. It could be an accident or traumatic event that includes pain and subconscious commands, whether from this life or in past lives. Scientology auditing procedures are used to locate incidents in the mind, and relieve them. A special type of incident is called an "implant" which is basically an enforced memory that can contain commands and fictitious events. The person will believe the implanted event actually existed, and the commands in the implant allegedly make the person act strange. In a contemporary sense, an implant could be compared to a hypnotic command, however, the implants L. Ron Hubbard mentioned in his Dianetics and Scientology writings follow space opera themes. Typically, these implants involve electronic fields entrapping and zapping a thetan (the being), installing commands, and showing cinema-lik ...

Scientology
Scientology is a set of beliefs and practices invented by the American author L. Ron Hubbard, and an associated movement. It is variously defined as a scam, a Scientology as a business, business, a cult, or a religion. Hubbard initially developed a set of Pseudoscience, pseudoscientific ideas that he called Dianetics, which he represented as a form of therapy. An organization that he established in 1950 to promote it went bankrupt, and his ideas were rejected as nonsense by the scientific community. He then recast his ideas as a religion, likely for tax purposes and to avoid prosecution, and renamed them Scientology. In 1953, he founded the Church of Scientology which, by one 2014 estimate, has around 30,000 members worldwide. Key Scientology beliefs include reincarnation, and that traumatic events cause subconscious command-like recordings in the mind (termed "Engram (Dianetics), engrams") that can be removed only through an activity called "Auditing (Scientology), auditing". ...

Marcab Confederacy
According to the beliefs of the Church of Scientology, the Marcab Confederacy is said to be one of the most powerful galactic civilizations still active. Church founder L. Ron Hubbard describes it as: Various planets united into a very vast civilization which has come forward up through the last 200,000 years, formed out of the fragments of earlier civilizations. In the last 10,000 years they have gone on with a sort of decadent kicked-in-the-head civilization that contains automobiles, business suits, fedora hats, telephones, spaceships — a civilization which looks almost an exact duplicate but is worse off than the current US civilization. The capital of the Confederacy is said to be ''"one of the tail stars of the Big Dipper"'', probably Alkaid, a star 108 light years distant from Earth. The Marcabians used to rule Earth at some point in the past but lost control of it due to ''"losses in war and other things"''. Marcabians The Marcabians had an oppressive political sy ...

Space Opera In Scientology Scripture
Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard routinely referred to "space opera" in his teachings, drawing from science-fiction and weaving it into his origins of human history. In his writings, wherein thetans (roughly comparable to the concept of a human soul) were reincarnated periodically over quadrillions of years, retaining memories of prior lives, to which Hubbard attributed complex narratives about life throughout the universe. The most controversial of these myths is the story of Xenu, to whom Hubbard attributed responsibility for many of the world's problems. Some space opera doctrines of Scientology are only provided by the church to experienced members, who church leaders maintain are the only ones able to correctly understand them. Several former members of the church have exposed these secret documents, leading to lengthy court battles with the church, which failed to keep the secret. Critics of the church have noted that some of the narratives are scientifically impossible ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Helatrobus
According to Church of Scientology doctrine, Helatrobus was an "interplanetary nation", now extinct, which existed trillions of years ago. Government In his ''State of OT'' lecture, Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard described them as: ''"a little pipsqueak government, didn't amount to very much."'' This same description also appears in the ''Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary'' (first edition, pg. 196). The official insignia of Helatrobus was a gold cross, ''"like the American Red Cross or something of the sort."'' In the HCO Bulletin of April 17, AD13 ("Aircraft Door Goals"), Hubbard states that the total life span of the Helatrobus government was between 52 trillion and 38 trillion years ago.

Anderson Report
The Anderson Report is the colloquial name of the report of the Board of Inquiry into Scientology, an official inquiry into the Church of Scientology conducted for the State of Victoria, Australia. It was written by Kevin Victor Anderson QC and published in 1965. The report led to legislation attempting to ban Scientology in Victoria and similar legislation in several other States of Australia.
