Alter-is; Alter-is-ness; Alter-ist

ALTER-IS, 1. a composite word meaning the action of altering or changing the reality of something. Is-ness means the way it is. When someone sees it differently he is doing an alter-is; in other words, is altering the way it is. This is taken from the Axioms. (LRH Def. Notes) 2. to introduce a change and therefore time and persistence in an as-is-ness to obtain persistency. An introduction of an alter-is is therefore the addition of a lie to the real which causes it to persist and not to blow or as-is. (HCOB 11 May 65)

ALTER-IS-NESS, 1. the consideration which introduces change, and therefore time and persistence into an as-is-ness to obtain persistency. (PXL, p. 154) 2. the effort to preserve something by altering its characteristics. (PXL, p. 53)

ALTER-IST, the control case, the person obsessively controlling things, and himself, is an alter-ist. He’s got to change, change. Well, he’s lost too much.Now he’s got to change everything but he’s not satisfied with anything. (PXL, p.54)
