The Cause of Suppression Testimonials & Results

“My stepmother had been an alcoholic and had been under treatment by psychologists and psychiatrists for years, trying to handle this condition. Their ’handling’ was to give her drugs and tell her what to think and do in life. As a result, her outlook on life had been bleak and very negative. I finally discovered the technology about suppressive persons. I found out who had been suppressing my stepmother and I learned how to help her. Today she doesn’t drink at all, is completely cheerful—we get along great! After all these years, I am extremely proud that we have a happy future.” T.G.

“This book gave me a reality adjustment. I thought getting sick and having accidents were just ’a part of life.’ So it was only normal that they always happened to me. After reading The Cause of Suppression booklet, I now know that this is completely false. I don’t have to live this way. There is a reason for my constant illness and mistakes. When I spotted why this was I almost jumped out of my socks. It was incredible. It was also so obvious, but without this booklet I would have never known.” E.K.

Article: Shattering Suppression

SHATTERING SUPPRESSION1

The PTS/SP Course has long been the most popular course at Celebrity Centre, and in fact Scientology internationally, for good reason. Surveys of those who’ve done the course found it puts one at a whole new level of cause in life, makes one able to spot a suppressive person a mile away and gives the ability and tools to handle any suppression, fast. […]

If everyone made their intentions clear, perhaps less people would fall effect of suppression. But suppressives do make their intentions clearly known — you just have to know what to look for, an ability honed and perfected on the PTS/SP Course. […]

“An SP confronted by someone who knows and can use all the tech concerning SPs would shatter.” — L. Ron Hubbard, from HCO Policy Letter “Your Post and Life.”2

Article: Cause Over Suppression Means Cause. Period.

Cause Over Suppression Means Cause. Period.1

As Chairman of the Board RTC explained during the Maiden Voyage OT Summit Events: “As you know, International Management’s GOING GLOBAL strategy is aimed at bringing the materials of Dianetics and Scientology to every language of Earth. […]

Then a few weeks later, at the second in the series of Maiden Voyage Anniversary OT Summit Events, a milestone achievement was announced in making it possible for all Scientologists to make it up The Bridge. The brand-new PTS/SP Course: “How to Confront and Shatter Suppression” was released in English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Danish, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Portuguese, Greek, Russian, Hungarian, Japanese and Hebrew! […]

And why is this so important? As Chairman of the Board RTC explained at the event, “While we can move someone up the Grade Chart on a direct shot to OT and provide the rundowns to get him back on the grade chart when he falls off, this one factor could prevent it all: Suppression. “…Well, I don’t think anyone likes suppression. Yet, just from the fact that one lives on this planet, there isn’t a single person who isn’t in contact with it. The question becomes whether he is at CAUSE or EFFECT.” And now, with the release of the fully body of PTS/SP Technology and the new PTS/SP Course in fifteen languages, tools to be at CAUSE have been put in more beings’ hands than ever.

Book: Introduction to Scientology Ethics (Definitions)

DEFINITIONS:

Suppressive Person — a person who suppresses other people in his vicinity. A suppressive person will goof up or vilify any effort to help anybody and particularly knife with violence anything calculated to make human beings more powerful or more intelligent.

The whole rationale of the suppressive person (SP) is built on the belief that if anyone got better, the SP would be for it as the others could overcome him then.

He is fighting a battle he once fought and never stopped fighting. He is in an incident. Present time people are mistaken by him for past, long-gone enemies.

Therefore, he never really knows what he is fighting in present time, so just fights.

Potential Trouble Source — somebody who is connected with a suppressive person who is invalidating him, his beingness, his life. The person is a potential trouble source because he is connected to the suppressive person.

Potential trouble source means the person is going to go up and fall down. And he is a trouble source because he is going to get upset and because he is going to make trouble. And he really does make trouble. That’s very carefully named.

The exact mechanics of a potential trouble source are as follows: Postulate—counter-postulate is the definition and the anatomy of a problem. And there is no other definition to a problem. A person has had a purpose in life and somebody has suppressed it, or a person has had a purpose over a twenty-four-hour period and somebody suppressed that purpose. In other words, his purpose was his postulate, the other person saying he couldn’t do it was the counter-postulate. That is simply the anatomy of a problem and there is no other reason for roller coaster.

Roller Coaster — a case that betters then worsens. The person is doing well or he is not doing well, and then is doing well, and then is not doing well. That is a roller coaster. And when he is not doing well he is sometimes ill.

A roller coaster is always connected to a suppressive person and will not get steady gain until the suppressive is found on the case.

Suppress — to squash, to sit on, to make smaller, to refuse to let reach, to make uncertain about his reaching, to render or lessen in any way possible by any means possible to the harm of the individual and for the fancied protection of the suppressor.

Suppression — a harmful intention or action against which one cannot fight back. Thus when one can do anything about it, it is less suppressive.

Suppression in its most fundamental sense is knocking out the beingness or location of another or others.

Mistakes, Anatomy of — in the presence of suppression, one makes mistakes.

People making mistakes or doing stupid things is evidence that a suppressive person exists in that vicinity.

LRH ED: Ron’s Journal 37

L. Ron Hubbard
EXECUTIVE DIRECTIVE

LRH ED 348 INT

Birthday RJ
13 March 1983

RON’S JOURNAL 37

Hello!

And thank you for your good wishes on this 13 March 83.

I am well and doing very fine indeed and I sincerely hope you are the same, and, believe me, earnestly, that is the only reason I have done the work I’ve done this last half century.

If at a breath I could wish the whole universe right as you too may have dreamed, it would be wonderful. But it takes a lot more than breaths or wishes to accomplish that and it requires that you also do your part in it if you and those dear to you are going to make it fully.

So I have a Birthday gift for you to return the flow of the avalanches of good wishes and remembrances that you send me. And as I accept them gratefully, so I hope you will accept this legacy.

It is the tech.

You see, despite inferences to the contrary, this tech has not been available before anywhere and was not even known.

I say this as no boast, but with something of amazement for you see researches by most others in the past have not been aimed at bettering man but making him more suggestible and obedient.

As a proof of this, any trouble Dianetics and Scientology had is traced to those who engage in suppression of individuals and man.

They use numerous ways to attempt the eradication of this tech. Denying it is the first. Invalidation is the second. Corrupting it is the next. But all these efforts in whatever guise, boil down to just one thing: to prevent people frnm achieving and enjoying freedom.

Those who attempt to suppress our tech do not themselves have the faintest clue of how to better anyone. This they cannot do. And this is your ace in the hole.

You see, truth must exist before lies and truth blows the lie away as it is later on the chain. And any suppressive person or group seeking to dissuade you or invalidate you deals only in lies. These lies are quite easily spotted if you know the Data Series.

Most people get so confused by all the lies around, they come to believe anything they’re told and that’s the reason the suppressive lies. But with the Data Series, one can spot bad data so easily it is itself a sort of relief to know it.

And as you burrow your way down through the layers of lies, you come to truth. And truth blows the lies away.

So we come to this legacy of tech. It is the route, which if purely used, uncorrupted and unperverted, will bring you at last to the vast free vistas of freedom and truth and the glory of being really you.

But this is not all, and this is my true message to you this Birthday: IF YOU KNOW THE TECH, IT WILL PROTECT YOU.

You do not even have to believe it works. If you really know the true tech, no one and nothing can hurt you or demean you in the ages to come.

So it is not just freedom that is the goal; it is the maintaining of it one must assure.

Those who do not let you have it, twist it, invalidate it and pretend it is something else that’s meant, are seeking to deny you not just the road out but the armor of knowledge that will guard you.

So this is my gift to you this Birthday in return for all your well wishing: the legacy of tech.

The policy is there to guard and deliver the tech as well as to help make a better society and this is also yours.

It means of course that you yourself must more than whiff at the bouquet of tech. It means hard and earnest study and precise application for only those will bring it into full bloom in your life.

It is true that paths are sometimes rough and that travel can be tiring and long. But wait!

There are vistas never dreamed of, there are joys never even known, there are glories no past glory ever surpassed.

These wait for you but only if you accept my legacy and help bring these things about.

And in the years to come and the ages that follow, the hosannas will be for your Birthday, not mine.

My Love,

RON
