Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

No.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

The model is you have the physical universe...

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

And then above that, you have the theta universe.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

So we used the word thetan earlier.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

So in Scientology, they just use the word theta.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

I don't know.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

Theta is just basically Thetan power.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

Thetans collectively.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

So Hubbard would say you have the Theta universe, which is senior to the physical universe and creates the physical universe.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

And remember, I said, I said native God-like potentials.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

So we're not talking about the God who created the earth.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

We're just like Scientologists don't believe in a God, but we'll get into that later.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

We're talking about just creating universes.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

Like just think like matrix.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

Like just when I say creating universe, essentially just creating different Thetan simulations.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

Well, I grew up in a cult, so I'm not familiar with the works of Plato.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

I totally agree.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

In fact, it's one of the,

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

of thrusts I have on my channel is wanting to talk about Scientology in a way that would actually resonate with current Scientologists, not just resonate with former Scientologists.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#361 โ€“ Aaron Smith-Levin: Scientology

I want people who are still in to be able to hear how I talk about it and go, wow, he's being really fair and really accurate.
