If you have ever wondered why people reat the way they do to stressful or troubling circumstances, then click here. The answer is simple and has been with us for more than 50 years.

Where unwanted emotions come from — anger, jealousy, guilt, fear.

The Dianetics site has this message:

For as long as man has walked the Earth, he has looked earnestly for happiness....

....dramatic results from Dianetics can begin right away since one is actually handling the SOURCE of his or her problems. Such results go far beyond anything produced by older subjects or means.

In a recent survey of Dianetics users, they reported that using Dianetics technology had reduced their stress by 46%, cut down their level of anxiety by 55%, and slashed depression by 72%. While 92% of those surveyed said Dianetics had improved their relationships.

Dianetics is All Over the Place

Dianetics groups are springing up all over the place. I saw in the Sacramento Bee that there is a group in a little place called Elk Grove. Dianetics has been very popular ever since the book was written in 1950 and it just hasn't stopped being an extremely popular book. People usually get the book and then find a friend and counsel each other using it. I have personallyheard of amazing gains. The Dianetics website gives specifics.

Incredibly Helpful Book

Here's what Harry Wong had to say about Dianetics, in his review on Amazon.com:

I found this book incredibly helpful in explaining what was going on with me and how to improve myself. I read the book and then did some of the techniques and WOW, they work and I love it.

Over the last several years I can't believe the changes in me, I'm much friendlier, happier and getting on in life so much better. Many old friends are stunned at the improvement in attitude and have told my wife: "whatever you've done to him, keep it up" :-)

Stress Takes its Toll

According to the Daily India The Centers for Disease Control estimates that 75-90% of all doctor visits are stress-related. It's important to find a healthy way to deal with stress.

Say, what? That's outrageous.

Billions of dollars get spent every year on medical bills and prescriptions just to handle these stress-related physical problems.

But stress is obviously a spiritual problem. It is how the being (the person himself) reacts to the difficulties he/she encouters in life.

According to the Dianetics and Scientology dictionary, Dianetics spiritual healing technology... addresses and handles the effects of the spirit on the body and can alleviate such things as unwanted sensations and emotions, accidents, injuries and psychosomatic illnesses (ones that are caused or aggravated by mental stress). Dianetics means “through the soul” (from Greek dia, through, and nous, soul). It is further defined as “what the soul is doing to the body.”

The results of Dianetics counseling are spectacular, and even more so when you realize that anyone who wants to benefit from it is welcome to come for a Dianetics seminar at a Scientology church or mission.

A Dianetics Success

I had to post this - it is very cool how Dianetics counseling helped this person.

"My well-being has returned with Dianetics.

“I had tremendous weight loss — extreme fatigue, just getting up and doing my basic routine was almost more than I could do. I was losing most of my hair, I suffered from horrible headaches, and I just was dying basically. I was going from doctor to doctor, and they basically said ‘There’s not a lot we can do for you, we really don’t know why your body's doing what it's doing... you're probably going to die.’

“I was devastated, I was a young woman, I had my youngest son getting ready to get married and I might not have been a part of it.

“One of my son's friends introduced me to Dianetics. We had just three sessions and totally handled the problem. I began to get healthy again, I began to stop losing my hair, my weight started to come back on and the headaches are gone. Dianetics, to me personally, saved my life. I know that without it, I wouldn't be here.”

Dianetics 55!

There's a book titled Dianetics 55! which is L. Ron Hubbard's basic discoveries on communication. He actually found a formula for communication. It's so brilliant. So effective.

It's skills that will help anyone who needs to be able to relate to people.

Dianetics Trademarks

I thought I'd include an article that explains more about Dianetics trademarks:

"The philosophy and technologies of Dianetics and Scientology were discovered and developed solely by L. Ron Hubbard. It is a fundamental belief of Scientologists that, if the technologies are applied exactly as he recorded them in Scientology scripture, they are universally workable and will improve conditions and result in greater spiritual awareness and ability for everyone.

"For this reason, Scientologists emphasize the orthodox and standard application of the Scientology scripture. Thus, Scientologists never interpret scripture for each other but always refer to the original source materials. A Course Supervisor in a Scientology church is not a teacher in that he does not lecture or give his own opinions because to do so, even if well-intentioned, would inevitably enter alterations, even if slight, into the technologies which would lessen their effectiveness. This alteration could accumulate over time to the point where Scientologists could never achieve the full spiritual benefits of the religion.

"For these reasons the Church and its members want, above all else, to preserve and apply the Scriptures exactly as set forth by Mr. Hubbard.

"Earlier, L. Ron Hubbard personally supervised the practice of the religion, and he also registered as marks many of the religion’s identifying words and symbols, such as “Dianetics” and “Scientology.” These registered marks provided a legal mechanism for ensuring that the Scientology religious technologies were orthodox and ministered according to the scriptures. They also provide a legal mechanism to prevent anyone from practicing in a non-orthodox manner or engaging in some distorted use of L. Ron Hubbard’s writings, while then claiming it is standard Dianetics or Scientology.

"In 1982, Mr. Hubbard donated these marks to the Religious Technology Center (RTC), and entrusted it with the responsibility to protect the religion by enforcing orthodox application of his Scientology technologies, and to protect the public by ensuring that only authorized church organizations used the identifying religious marks.

"Thus, while Church of Scientology International serves as the mother church and is responsible for the overall ecclesiastical management, dissemination and propagation of Scientology and the various churches of Scientology, Religious Technology Center serves as protector of the religion. While each Scientology organization and, indeed, every Scientologist is expected to enforce the standard application of scriptures, RTC is the final arbiter of orthodoxy.

"RTC is not part of the management structure of the Church and is not involved in its day-to-day affairs. A major reason for having the marks held by a separate Scientology organization is so that it is removed from the daily exigencies of management and so can more effectively perform its functions.

"RTC has an ongoing program to register its religious marks in many countries around the world -- even those that do not yet have a Scientology organization. Doing so ensures that the religious marks will not be usurped in those countries and that their citizens will know that they are receiving orthodox Dianetics and Scientology religious services when a Scientology organization is formed in their area.

"To ensure the purity of the religion and its Scriptures, RTC supervised a massive five-year project, only recently completed, to republish all of L. Ron Hubbard’s writings on Dianetics and Scientology. RTC ensured that the authenticity of each work was verified by comparing them word by word with his original manuscripts -- only once RTC was satisfied that the works were accurate were they republished. RTC then helped see that archival editions of these materials were produced, thus ensuring the availability of the pure unadulterated writings of Mr. Hubbard to the coming generations. As part of this project, Mr. Hubbard’s original tape-recorded lectures -- most of them over three decades old -- were restored using state-of-the art technology, and then accurately transcribed. Even the translations of the Scripture are scrupulously checked for accuracy by RTC prior to any publication.

"RTC has many other activities, all of which add up to performing its basic ecclesiastical functions: ensuring that what is represented as Dianetics or Scientology is genuinely so; protecting the general public by not allowing any organization or individual to do something entirely different while using the religious marks to misrepresent itself as Dianetics or Scientology; and not allowing any individual or organization to deliver Dianetics or Scientology while calling it something else. Any misuse or unauthorized use of the Scientology religious marks is rapidly corrected by RTC so that the religion is kept pure and all people may benefit from the application of Mr. Hubbard’s Scientology technologies.

"Mr. David Miscavige has served as RTC’s Chairman of the Board, its most senior position, since 1987. Mr. David Miscavige is uniquely qualified for this position. An active Scientologist for most of his life, he has been involved with nearly every aspect of the Church’s activities for many years and worked closely with Mr. Hubbard. Mr. David Miscavige has worked tirelessly to protect the religion. He authored the early 1980s reorganization of Church corporate and management structures which have given the religion years of sustained growth and stable leadership. "

Self Esteem.

In the course of living people make mistakes, do things they aren't proud of and often, somewhere along the line, stop feeling like they can fully trust themselves.

One of the most remarkable thing about Dianetics technology is now simple it is to get to the underlying cause of this change in self esteem and gain back personal trust.

And it is really simple to do.

Stress

According to a recent survey 43 percent of Americans say they suffer from the adverse affects of stress.

Did you know that most people find some relief from stress from their first Dianetics session?

Scientology churches and missions provide Dianetics seminars where persons attending get paired with others and they help each other with Dianetics techniques, under the supervision of trained staff.

In the course of a weekend or a few week nights most students can learn enough of the technique to help their partner. It is very simple to learn.

Here's just one example of what people get out of Dianetics:

"Before Dianetics I never knew what a Reactive Mind was. I didn’t know there was an enemy there and that the enemy was in my mind, right here. You know, I was always looking for it outside in other people, you know, my older brother, my wife, my parents, the world and it wasn’t there, you know it was always inside of me"
