LRH lecture 16 April 1952 HCL-21 Anatomy of the Theta Body

"There are usually three specific incidents on the track which are additive incidents - call them in slang, "joiners.""

"Now, this is more or less an average number of standard lines that make up the composite which is referred to as homo sapiens. It's interesting - and extremely interesting - that none of these lines need any of the other of these lines to be a complete entity, but they are joined together. They are under compulsion and they are under duress, because they have been used, they have been abused and they have been united for other purposes than those in the best interest of self-determinism. Self-determinism has been led, however, all down the line, to slightly aid and abet and help out this composite state."

"Now, here you have, then - here you have unnecessary additives all the way down the line. And these additives, however, have taken over anatomical positions - precise, you might say, geographic positions in the human body."

"And in addition to all these, there is the theta body of the genetic line, which is evidently resident somewhere in the middle of the body."

"And the reason I'm calling them theta bodies is to give you a very good differentiation. Because a human being, Homo sapiens, as he exists today in a normal state, is a composite of these bodies."

"It's because every one of those joiners has put into every one of these theta bodies the compulsion to pick up more theta bodies."

"And it actually can get down to a point where the composite you - fortunately, very lightly so - can actually be influenced by thousands and thousands and thousands and thousands of theta lines which you've picked up, but which aren't your theta lines. You're just sort of holding them trapped. And they've tried to go back and go where they're supposed to go between lives, and they try to do this and they try to do that. Maybe they're so groggy they don't know enough to do this, and so on. You take somebody who is really sick, and you run out an overt act, if you get a grief charge on it or if you reduce this overt act, you have probably also jettisoned a captured theta body, just like that."

"Let's call the theta being - let's say theta being would be the central senior person, the one that your preclear would be if he were entirely cleared up on his way to a Theta Clear and this would be the last entity you would be addressing. That's the top senior entity and the one which will preserve as the preclear. Let's call that a theta being, or his theta being.

Now, let's call the remaining theta bodies, souls. And not call this - you don't like that word? Alright, what do you want for words? Let's call them, then, entities - let's call them entities. Hm? Alright.

You've got a whole series of these now, because these, by the way, have not walked in - these have not walked in unbidden. They are actually - have been gathered up in groups. Some of them are there under compulsion from elsewhere."

"Now those come in on the individual - they come in on the individual, but not unbidden. He asked for them. Or one of his entities asked for them, authorizedly or unauthorizedly, out of a compulsion to join up.

Therefore, you have this stack that looks like this. First there's the theta being. Now, it has co-mingled in company, but hasn't co-mingled in identity, with a second being. Now, this other being is pretty senior and probably won't leave.

These two then have added to them these entities, one after the other. And these entities, in turn, have enough compulsion on them to add in even more beings, so that you eventually wind up with a very large number."

"Some of these entities are or have been theta beings, and as such are accompanied by their own sub-order."

"?get the theta being of the individual alive, awake and alert as soon as possible.

Get that being audited, then, because that's what you're trying to address your auditing to. And the only reason you're trying to take these entities and other things present out of the way is that you just want them out of the way so that you can audit this theta being.

That is what you are doing, and it's a very simple job. It becomes much simpler - much, much simpler - as a concept than any we have had before."

 

LRH lecture 16 April 1952 HCL-22 How To Audit a Theta Line, Parts I and II

"Now, therefore, auditing procedure as I would recommend it at this time - which is subject to change - auditing procedure would be simply this; You clean up theta lines only to the point where you can handily and easily reach the center. And then you clean up its line as far back as is necessary to keep it from holding on to other entities. And then you'll find your preclear is in much better state; therefore you should just go back and clean up then, this central being up to a point where he's a Theta Clear. And that would be a procedure.

There may be a faster way of blowing a theta line; that's why I say it's subject to change because there may be this faster way of blowing a theta line. I don't know of one at this time beyond complete rehabilitation of the center. And sometimes you can't just say to the center "All right - be". 100 percent? Sometimes, by the way, you can, though. You can suddenly say - you locate the center for the fellow and you show him on the machine - "Now that's the center"."

"Oh, is that me? Oh, is that how I feel? Oh, gee! Yeah."

"Well now, just get that in communication with every part of your body. Now, get it in communication with all of the MEST universe." Boom! Terrific change takes place. But unfortunately this can't be done all the time, so the other procedure is to clean up the lines which are keeping it from happening, and then just to the point where you can clean it up, and so you get the person up the line on that.

Now, theoretically all the other beings ought to blow immediately that this thing decides - this center being, you, which is really you, by the way - will decide."
