And it goes both flows there, not just things that have happened to you, but things that you've done.

So, you know, you could be being asked for, you know, you'd be going back to, I wiped out a civilization.

I committed genocide on this rice on this planet.

Oh, wow.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

yeah so i mean and now i walk around with that guilt wait i'm actually a horrible person so imagine though if you had not only are you looking at you know if someone's being self-critical trying to identify destructive patterns of behavior in your present life but what if you really internalize the fact that i haven't only been this way for 40 years i've been this way for 40 trillion years yeah but scientology would argue

that as a thetan you're inherently good all things are basically good so the the goal of the auditing procedure there would be essentially to figure out find the moment find what it was that caused you to make that shift as a being to dramatize you know evil intentions and stuff like that so even if you're going whole track

looking at all the horrible things you've done.

The goal is to find like, well, what happened just prior to that?

What was like the prior confusion?

And what did you misunderstand just before that and whatnot?

So the goal is basically, so Scientologists after a lot of auditing are also convinced that they have fixed the reason for any non-optimum

It can take years.

Scientology would say that Scientology is not about beliefs.

It's about application of the techniques of Scientology auditing to improve someone's spiritual awareness and ability.

So the belief level of Scientology is pretty much the stuff we've already discussed.

The effectiveness of the auditing process.

So the effectiveness of the auditing process, this is one of the things Hubbard says, is that standard tech, standard Scientology, they call it the tech, the technology of how to deliver auditing, standard tech, works 100% of the time when applied 100% correctly.

Well, that's kind of unfalsifiable, right?
