AXIOMS & LOGICS
By
L. Ron Hubbard.THE AXIOMS OF DIANETICS
BY
L. RON HUBBARD
AXIOM 1. THE SOURCE OF LIFE IS A STATIC OF PECULIAR AND
PARTICULAR PROPERTIES.
AXIOM 2. AT LEAST A PORTION OF THE STATIC CALLED LIFE IS IMPINGED
UPON THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE.
AXIOM 3. THAT PORTION OF THE: STATIC OF LIFE WHlCH IS IMPINGED
UPON THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE HAS FOR ITS DYNAMIC GOAL,
SURVIVAL AND ONLY SURVIVAL.
AXIOM 4. THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE IS REDUCIBLE TO MOTION OF
ENERGY OPERATING IN SPACE THROUGH TIME.
AXIOM 5. THAT PORTION OF THE STATIC OF LIFE CONCERNED WITH THE
LIFE ORGANISMS OF THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE IS CONCERNED
WHOLLY WITH MOTION.
AXIOM 6. THE LIFE STATIC HAS AS ONE OF ITS PROPERTIES THE ABILITY
TO MOBILIZE AND ANIMATE MATTER INTO LIVING ORGANISMS.
AXIOM 7. THE LIFE STATIC IS ENGAGED IN A CONQUEST OF THE
PHYSICAL UNIVERSE.
AXIOM 8. THE LIFE STATIC CONQUERS THE MATERIAL UNIVERSE BY
LEARNING AND APPLYING THE PHYSICAL LAWS OF THE
PHYSICAL UNIVERSE.
SYMBOL: The symbol for the LIFE STATIC in use hereafter is the Greek letter
THETA.
AXIOM 9. A FUNDAMENTAL OPERATION OF THETA IN SURVIVING IS
BRINGING ORDER INTO THE CHAOS OF THE PHYSICAL
UNIVERSE
AXIOM 10. THETA BRINGS ORDER INTO CHAOS BY CONQUERING
WHATEVER IN MEST MAY BE PRO-SURVIVAL AND DESTROYING
WHATEVER IN MEST MAY BE CONTRA-SURVIVAL, AT LEAST
THROUGH THE MEDIUM OF LIFE ORGANISMS.
SYMBOL: The symbol for the PHYSICAL UNIVERSE in use here - after is MEST,
from the first letters of the words, Matter, Energy, Space and Time, or the
Greek letter Phi.
AXIOM 11. A LIFE ORGANISM IS COMPOSED OF MATTER AND ENERGY IN
SPACE AND TIME, ANIMATED BY THETA.
SYMBOL: Living organism or organisms will hereafter be represented by the Greek
letter LAMBDA..AXIOM 12. THE MEST PART OF THE ORGANISM FOLLOWS THE LAWS OF
THE PHYSICAL SCIENCES. ALL LAMBDA IS CONCERNED WITH
MOTION.
AXIOM 13, THETA OPERATING THROUGH LAMBDA CONVERTS THE FORCES
OF THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE INTO FORCES TO CONQUER THE
PHYSICAL UNIVERSE.
AXIOM 14. THETA WORKING UPON PHYSICAL UNIVERSE MOTION, MUST
MAINTAIN A HARMONIOUS RATE OF MOTION.
The limits of LAMBDA are narrow, both as to thermal and mechanical
motion.
AXIOM 15, LAMBDA IS THE INTERMEDIATE STEP IN THE CONQUEST OF THE
PHYSICAL UNIVERSE.
AXIOM 16. THE BASIC FOOD OF ANY ORGANISM CONSISTS OF LIGHT AND
CHEMICALS.
Organisms can exist only as higher levels of complexities because lower
levels of converters exist. Theta evolves organisms from lower to higher
forms and supports them by the existence of lower converter forms.
AXOM 17. THETA, VIA LAMBDA EFFECTS AN EVOLUTION OF MEST.
In this we have the waste products of organisms on the one hand as those
very complex chemicals which bacteria make, and, on the other hand, we
have the physical face of the earth being changed by animals and men, such
changes as grass holding mountains from eroding or roots causing borders
to break, buildings being built and rivers being dammed. There is obviously
an evolution in MEST in progress under the incursion of THETA.
AXIOM 18. LAMDBA, EVEN WITHIN A SPECIES, VARIES IN ITS ENDOWMENT
OF THETA.
AXIOM 19. THE EFFORT OF LAMBDA IS TOWARD SURVIVAL.
The goal of Lambda is survival. The penalty of failure to advanlce toward
that goal is to succumb.
DEFINITION: PERSISTENCE IS THE ABILITY TO EXERT CONTlNUANCE OF
EFFORT TOWARD SURVlVAL GOALS.
AXIOM 20. LAMBDA CREATES, CONSERVES, MAINTAINS, REQUIRES,
DESTROYS, CHANGES, OCCUPIES, GROUPS AND DISPERSES
MEST. LAMBDA SURVIVES BY ANIMATING AND MOBILIZING OR
DESTROYING MATTER AND ENERGY IN SPACE AND TIME.
AXIOM 21. LAMBDA IS DEPENDENT UPON OPTIMUM MOTION. MOTION
WHICH IS TOO SWIFT AND MOTION WHICH IS TOO SLOW ARE
EQUALLY CONTRA- SURVIVAL.
AXIOM 22 THETA AND THOUGHT ARE SIMILAR ORDERS OF STATIC.
AXIOM 23. ALL THOUGHT IS CONCERNED WITH MOTION..AXIOM 24. THE ESTABLISHMENT OF AN OPTIMUM MOTION IS A BASIC
GOAL OF REASON.
DEFINITION: LAMBDA IS A CHEMICAL HEAT ENGINE EXISTING IN SPACE
AND TIME MOTIVATED BY THE LIFE STATIC AND DlRECTED BY
THOUGHT.
AXIOM 25. THE BASIC PURPOSE OF REASON IS THE CALCULATION OR
ESTIMATION OF EFFORT.
AXIOM 26. THOUGHT IS ACCOMPLISHED BY THETA FACSIMILES OF
PHYSICAL UNIVERSE, ENTITIES OR ACTIONS.
AXIOM 27. THETA IS SATISFIED ONLY WITH HARMONIOUS ACTION OR
OPTIMUM MOTION AND REJECTS OR DESTROYS ACTION OR
MOTION ABOVE OR BELOW ITS TOLERANCE BAND.
AXIOM Z8. THE MIND IS CONCERNED WHOLLY WITH THE ESTIMATION OF
EFFORT.
DEFINITION: MIND IS THE THETA COMMAND POST OF ANY ORGAN- ISM OR
ORGANISMS.
AXIOM 29. THE BASIC ERRORS OF REASON ARE FAILURE TO
DIFFERENTIATE AMONGST MATTER, ENERGY, SPACE AND TIME
AXIOM 30. RIGHTNESS IS PROPER CALCULATION OF EFFORT.
AXIOM 31. WRONGNESS IS ALWAYS MISCALCULATION OF EFFORT.
AXIOM 32. THETA CAN EXERT ITSELF DIRECTLY OR EXTENSIONALLY.
Theta can direct physical application of the organism to the environment or
through tbe mind, can first calculate the action or extend as in language,
ideas.
AXIOM 33. CONCLUSIONS ARE DIRECTED TOWARD THE INHIBITION,
MAINTENANCE OR ACCELERATIONS OF EFFORTS.
AXIOM 34. THE COMMON DENOMINATOR OF ALL LIFE ORGANISMS IS
MOTION.
AXIOM 35. EFFORT OF AN ORGANISM TO SURVIVE OR SUCCUMB IS
PHYSICAL MOTION OF A LIFE ORGANISM AT A GIVEN MOMENT
IN TIME THROUGH SPACE.
.
DEFINITION: MOTION IS ANY CHANGE IN ORIENTATION IN SPACE.
DEFINITION: FORCE IS RANDOM EFFORT.
DEFINITION: EFFORT IS DIRECTED FORCE.
AXIOM 36. AN ORGANISM’S EFFORT CAN BE TO REMAIN AT REST OR
PERSIST IN A GIVEN MOTION.
Static state has position in time, but an organism which is remaining
positionally in a static state if alive is still continuing a highly complex
pattern of motion, such as the heart beat. digestion, etc..The efforts of organisms to survive or succumb are assisted, compelled or
opposed by the efforts of other organisms, matter, energy, space and time.
DEFINITION: ATTENTION IS A MOTION WHICH MUST REMAIN AT AN
OPTIMUM EFFORT.
Attention is aberrated by becoming unfixed and sweeping at randon or
becoming too fixed without sweeping.
Unkown threats to survival when sensed cause attention to sweep without
fixing.
Known threats to survival when sensed cause attention to fix.
AXIOM 37. THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF LAMBDA IS INFINITE SURVIVAL.
AXIOM 38. DEATH IS ABANDONMENT BY THETA OF A LIFE ORGANISM OR
RACE OR SPECIES WHERE THESE CAN NO LONGER SERVE
THETA IN ITS GOALS OF INFINITE SURVIVAL.
AXIOM 39. THE REWARD OF AN ORGANISM ENGAGING UPON SURVIVAL
ACTIVITY IS PLEASURE.
AXIOM 40. THE PENALTY OF AN ORGANISM FAILING TO ENGAGE UPON
SURVIVAL ACTIVITY, OR ENGAGING ON NONSURVIVAL
ACTIVITY IS PAIN.
AXIOM 41. THE CELL AND VIRUS ARE THE PRIMARY BUILDING BLOCKS OF
LIFE ORGANISMS.
AXIOM 42. THE VIRUS AND CELL ARE MATTER AND ENERGY ANIMATED
AND MOTIVATED IN SPACE AND TlME BY THETA.
AXIOM 43. THETA MOBILIZES THE VIRUS AND CELL IN COLONIAL
AGGREGATIONS TO INCREASE POTENTIAL MOTION AND
ACCOMPLISH EFFORT.
AXIOM 44. THE GOAL OF VIRUSES AND CELLS IS SURVIVAL IN SPACE
THROUGH TIME.
AXIOM 45. THE TOTAL MISSION OF HIGHER ORGANISMS, VIRUSES AND
CELLS THE SAME AS THAT 0F THE VIRUS AND CELL.
AXIOM 46. COLONIAL AGGREGATIONS OF VIRUSES AND CELLS BE IMBUED
WITH MORE THETA THAN THEY INHERENTLY CONTAINED.
Life Energy joins any group whether a group of organisms or group of cells
composing an organism. Here we have personal entity, individuation, etc.
AXIOM 47. EFFORT CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED BY LAMBDA ONLY THROUGH
THE CO-ORDINATION OF ITS PARTS TOWARD GOALS.
AXIOM 48. AN ORGANISM IS EQUIPPED TO BE GOVERNED AND
CONTROLLED BY A MIND.
AXIOM 49. THE PURPOSE OF THE MIND IS TO POSE AND RESOLVE
PROBLEMS RELATING TO SURVIVAL AND TO DIRECT THE
EFFORT OF THE ORGANISM ACCORDING TO THESE SOLUTIONS..AXIOM 50. ALL PROBLEMS ARE POSED AND RESOLVED THROUGH
ESTIMATIONS OF EFFORT.
AXIOM 51. THE MIND CAN CONFUSE POSITION IN SPACE WITH POSITION
IN TIME (COUNTER- EFFORTS PRODUCING ACTION PHRASES.)
AXIOM 52. AN ORGANISM PROCEEDING TOWARD SURYIVAL IS DIRECTED
BY THE MIND OF THAT ORGANISM IN THE ACCOMPLISHMENT
OF SURVIVAL EFFORT.
AXIOM 53. AN ORGANISM PROCEEDING TOWARD SUCCUMB IS DIRECTED
BY THE MIND OF THAT ORGANISM IN THE ACCOMPLISHMENT
OF DEATH.
AXIOM 54. SURVIVAL OF AN ORGANISM IS ACCOMPLISHED BY THE
OVERCOMMING OF EFFORTS OPPOSING ITS SURVIVAL. (NOTE
COROLLARY: FOR OTHER DYNAMICS.)
DEFINITION: DYNAMIC IS THE ABILITY TO TRANSLATE SOLUTIONS INTO
ACTION.
AXIOM 55. SURVIVAL EFFORT FOR AN ORGANISM INCLUDES THE
DYNAMIC THRUST BY THAT ORGANISM FOR THE SURVIVAL OF
ITSELF, ITS PROCREATIONS, ITS GROUP, ITS SUB-SPECIES, ITS
SPECIES, ALL LIFE ORGANISMS, MATERIAL UNIVERSE, THE
LIFE STATIC AND, POSSIBLY A SUPREME BEING. (NOTE: LIST OF
DYNAMICS.)
AXIOM 56. THE CYCLE OF AN ORGANISM, A GROUP OF ORGANISMS OR A
SPECIES IS INCEPTION, GROWTH, RE-CREATION, DECAY AND
DEATH.
AXIOM 57. THE EFFORT OF AN ORGANISM IS DIRECTED TOWARD THE
CONTROL OF THE ENVIRONMENT FOR ALL THE DYNAMICS.
AXIOM 58. CONTROL OF AN ENVIRONMENT IS ACCOMPLISHED BY THE
SUPPORT OF PRO - SURVIVAL FACTORS ALONG ANY DYNAMIC.
AXIOM 59. ANY TYPE OF HIGHER ORGANISM IS ACCOMPLISHED BY THE
EVOLUTION OF VIRUSES AND CELLS INTO FORMS CAPABLE OF
BETTER EFFORTS TO CONTROL OR LIVE IN AN ENVIRONMENT.
AXIOM 60. THE USEFULNESS OF AN ORGANISM IS DETERMINED ITS
ABILITY TO CONTROL THE ENVIRONMENT OR TO SUPPORT
ORGANISMS WHICH CONTROL THE ENVIRONMENT.
AXIOM 61. AN ORGANISM IS REJECTED BY THETA TO THE DEGREE THAT IT
FAILS IN ITS GOALS.
AXIOM 62. HIGHER ORGANISMS CAN EXIST ONLY IN THE DEGREE THAT
THEY ARE SUPPORTED BY THE LOWER ORGANISMS.
AXIOM 63. THE USEFULNESS OF AN ORGANISM IS DETERMINED THE
ALIGNMENT OF ITS EFFORTS TOWARD SURVIVAL.
AXIOM 64. THE MIND PERCEIVES AND STORES ALL DATA OF THE
ENVIRONMENT AND ALIGNS OR FAILS TO ALIGN THESE
ACCORDINGLY TO THE TIME THEY WERE PERCEIVED..AXIOM 65. THE PROCESS OF THOUGHT IS THE PERCEPTION OF THE
PRESENT AND THE COMPARlSON OF IT TO THE PERCEPTIONS
AND CONCLUSIONS OF THE PAST IN ORDER TO DIRECT ACTION
IN THE IMMEDIATE OR DISTANT FUTURE.
COROLLARY: THE ATTEMPT OF THOUGHT IS TO PERCEIVE REALITIES OF THE
PAST AND PRESENT IN ORDER TO PREDICT OR POSTULATE
REALITIES OF THE FUTURE.
AXIOM 66. THE PROCESS BY WHICH LIFE EFFECTS ITS CONQUEST OF THE
MATERIAL UNIVERSE CONSISTS IN THE CONVERSION OF THE
POTENTIAL EFFORT OF MATTER AND ENERGY IN SPACE AND
THROUGH TIME TO EFFECT WITH IT THE CONVERSION OF
FURTHER MATTER AND ENERGY IN SPACE AND THROUGH
TIME.
AXIOM 67. THETA CONTAINS ITS OWN THETA UNIVERSE EFFORT WHICH
TRANSLATES INTO MEST EFFORT.
AXIOM 68. THE SINGLE ARBITRARY IN ANY ORGANISM IS TIME.
AXIOM 69. PHYSICAL UNIVERSE PERCEPTIONS AND EFFORTS ARE
RECEIVED BY AN ORGANISM AS FORCE WAVES, CONVERTED BY
FACSIMILE INTO THETA AND ARE THUS STORED.
DEFINITION: RANDOMITY IS THE MIS- ALIGNMENT THROUGH THE INTERNAL
OR EXTERNAL EFFORTS BY OTHER FORMS OF LIFE OR THE
MATERIAL UNIVERSE OF THE EFFORTS OF AN ORGANISM, AND
IS IMPOSED ON THE PHYSICAL ORGANISM BY COUNTER
EFFORTS IN THE ENVIRONMENT.
AXIOM 70. ANY CYCLE OF ANY LIFE ORGANISM IS FROM STATIC TO
MOTION TO STATIC.
AXIOM 71. THE CYCLE OF RANDOMITY IS FROM STATIC, THROUGH
OPTIMUM, THROUGH RANDOMITY SUFFICIENTLY REPETITlOUS
OR SIMILAR TO CONSTITUTE ANOTHER STATIC.
AXIOM 72. THERE ARE TWO SUB-DIVISIONS TO RANDOMITY: DATA
RANDOMITY AND FORCE RANDOMITY.
AXIOM 73. THE THREE DEGREES OF RANDOMITY CONSISTS OF MINUS
RANDOMITY, OPTIMUM RANDOMITY AND PLUS RANDOMITY.
AXIOM 74. OPTIMUM RANDOMITY IS NECESSARY TO LEARNING.
AXIOM 75. THE IMPORTANT FACTORS IN ANY AREA OF RANDOMITY ARE
EFFORT AND COUNTER- EFFORT. (NOTE: AS DISTINGUISHED
FROM NEAR-PERCEPTIONS OF EFFORT. )
AXIOM 76. RANDOMITY AMONGST ORGANISMS IS VITAL TO CONTINUOUS
SURVlVAL OF ALL ORGANISMS.
AXIOM 77. THETA AFFECTS THE ORGANISM, OTHER ORGANISMS AND THE
PHYSICAL UNIVERSE BY TRANSLATING THETA FACSIMILIES
INTO PHYSICAL EFFORTS OR RANDOMITY OF EFFORTS..DEFINITION: THE DEGREE OF RANDOMITY IS MEASURED BY THE
RANDOMNESS OF EFFORT VECTORS WITHIN THE
ORGANISMISMS OR BETWEEN ORGANISMS AND THE PHYSICAL
UNIVERSE.
AXIOM 78. RANDOMITY BECOMES INTENSE IN INDIRECT RATIO TO THE
TIME IN WHICH IT TAKES PLACE, MODIFIED BY THE THE
EFFORT IN THE AREA.
AXIOM 79. INITIAL RANDOMITY CAN BE REINFORCED BY RANDOMITIES OF
GREATER OR LESSER MAGNITUDE.
AXIOM 80. AREAS OF RANDOMITY EXIST IN CHAINS OF SIMILARITY
PLOTTED AGAINST TIME. THIS CAN BE TRUE OF WORDS AND
ACTIONS CONTAINED IN RANDOMITIES. EACH MAY HAVE ITS
OWN CHAIN PLOTTED AGAINST TIME.
AXIOM 81. SANITY CONSISTS OF OPTIMUM RANDOMITY.
AXIOM 82. ABERRATION EXISTS TO THE DEGREE THAT PLUS OF MINUS
RANDOMITY EXISTS IN THE ENVIRONMENT OR PAST DATA OF
AN ORGANISM, GROUP OR SPECIES MODIFIED BY THE
ENDOWED SELF- DETERMINISM OF THAT ORGANISM, GROUP
OR SPECIES.
AXIOM 83. THE SELF- DETERMINISM OF AN ORGANISM IS DETERMINED BY
ITS THETA ENDOWMENT, MODIFIED BY MINUS OR PLUS
RANDOMITY IN ITS ENYIRONMENT OR ITS EXISTENCE.
AXIOM 84. THE SELF-DETERMINISM OF AN ORGANISM IS INCREATED BY
OPTIMUM RAND0MITYOF COUNTER- EFFORTS.
AXIOM 85. THE SELF-DETERMINISM OF AN ORGANISM IS REDUCED BY
PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY OF COUNTER- EFFORTS IN THE
ENVIRONMENT .
AXIOM 86. RANDOMITY CONTAINS BOTH THE RANDOMNESS OF EFFORTS
AND THE VOLUME OF EFFORTS. (NOTE: AN AREA OF
RANDOMITY CAN HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF CONFUSION BUT
WITHOUT VOLUME OF ENERGY, THE CONFUSION ITSELF IS
NEGLIGIBLE. )
AXIOM 87. THAT COUNTER- EFFORT IS MOST ACCEPTABLE TO AN
ORGANISM WHICH MOST CLOSELY APPEARS TO ASSIST lTS
ACCOMPLISHMENT OF ITS GOAL.
AXIIOM 88. AN AREA OF SEVERE PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY CAN
OCCLUDE DATA ON ANY OF THE SUBJECTS OF THAT PLUS OR
MINUS RANDOMITY WHICH TOOK PLACE IN A PRIOR TIME.
(NOTE: SHUT-OFF MECHANISMS OF EARLIER LIVES,
PERCEPTICS, SPECIFIC INCIDENTS, ETC.)
AXIOM 89. RESTIMULATION OF PLUS, MlNUS OR OPTIMUM RANDOMITY
CAN PRODUCE INCREASED PLUS, MINUS OR OPTIMUM
RANDOMITY RESPECTIVELY IN THE ORGANISM..AXIOM 90. AN AREA OF RANDOMITY CAN ASSUME SUFFICIENT
MAGNITUDE SO AS TO APPEAR TO THE ORGANISM AS PAIN,
ACCORDING TO ITS GOALS.
AXIOM 91. PAST RANDOMITY CAN IMPOSE ITSELF UPON THE PRESENT
ORGANISM AS THETA FACSIMILES.
AXIOM 92. THE ENGRAM IS A SEVERE AREA OF PLUS OR MINUS
RANDOMITY OF SUFFICIENT VOLUME TO CAUSE
UNCONSCIOUSNESS.
AXlOM 93. UNCONSCIOUSNESS IS AN EXCESS OF RANDOMlTY IMPOSED BY
A COUNTER-EFFORT OF SUFFICIENT FORCE TO CLOUD THE
AWARENESS AND DIRECT FUNCTION OF THE ORGANISM
THROUGH THE MIND’S CONTROL CENTER.
AXIOM 94. ANY COUNTER- EFFORT WHICH MIS-ALIGNS THE ORGANISM’S
COMMAND OF ITSELF OR ITS ENVIRONMENT ESTABLISHES
PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY OR, IF OF SUFFICIENT
MAGNITUDE, IS AN ENGRAM.
AXIOM 95. PAST ENGRAMS ARE RESTIMULATED BY THE CONTROL
CENTER’S PERCEPTION OF CIRCUMSTANCES SIMILAR TO THAT
ENGRAM IN THE PRESENT ENVIRONMENT.
AXIOM 96. AN ENGRAM IS A THETA FACSIMILE OF ATOMS AND
MOLECULES IN MISALIGHMENT.
AXIOM 97. ENGRAMS FIX EMOTIONAL RESPONSE AS THAT EMOTIONAL
RESPONSE OF THE ORGANISM DURING THE RECEIPT OF THE
COUNTER- EFFORT.
AXIOM 98. FREE EMOTIONAL RESPONSE DEPENDS ON OPTIMUM
RANDOMITY. IT DEPENDS UPON ABSENCE OF OR NON- RESTIM-ULATION
OF ENGRAMS.
AXIOM 99. THETA FACSIMILIES CAN RECOMBINE INTO NEW SYMBOLS.
AXIOM 100. LANGUAGE IS THE SYMBOLIZATION OF EFFORT.
AXIOM 101. LANGUAGE DEPENDS FOR ITS FORCE UPON THE FORCE WHICH
ACCOMPANIED ITS DEFINITION: , (NOTE: COUNTER-EFFORT,
NOT LANGUAGE, IS ABERRATIVE. )
AXIOM 102. THE ENVIRONMENT CAN OCCLUDE THE CENTRAL CONTROL OF
ANY ORGANISM AND ASSUME CONTROL OF THE MOTOR
CONTROLS OF THAT ORGANISM (ENGRAM, RESTIMULATION,
LOCKS, HYPNOTISM).
AXIOM 103. INTELLIGENCE DEPENDS ON THE ABILITY TO SELECT ALIGNED
OR MISALIGNED DATA FROM AN AREA OF RANDOMITY AND SO
DISCOVER A SOLUTION TO REDUCE ALL RANDOMITY IN THAT
AREA.
AXIOM 104. PERSISTENCE OBTAINS IN THE ABILITY OF THE MIND TO PUT
SOLUTIONS INTO PHYSICAL ACTION TOWARD THE
REALIZATION OF GOALS..AXIOM 105. AN UNKNOWN DATUM CAN PRODUCE DATA OF PLUS OR MINUS
RANDOMITY.
AXIOM 106. THE INTRODUCTION OF AN ARBITRARY FACTOR OR FORCE
WITHOUT RECOURSE TO NATURAL LAWS OF THE BODY OR THE
AREA INTO WHICH THE ARBITRARY IS INTRODUCED BRINGS
ABOUT PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMlTY.
AXIOM 107. DATA OF PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY DEPENDS FOR ITS
CONFUSION ON FORMER PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY OR
ABSENT DATA.
AXIOM 108. EFFORTS WHICH ARE INHIBITED OR COMPELLED BY EXTERIOR
EFFORTS EFFECT A PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY OF EFFORTS.
AXIOM109. BEHAVIOR IS MODIFIED BY COUNTER- EFFORTS WHICH HAVE
IMPINGED ON THE ORGANISM.
AXIOM 110. THE COMPONENT PARTS OF THETA ARE AFFINITY, REALITY
AND COMMUNlCATION.
AXIOM 111. SELF-DETERMINISM CONSISTS OF MAXIMAL AFFINITY,
REALITY AND COMMUNICATION.
AXIOM 112. AFFINITY IS THE COHESION OF THETA.
Affinity manifests itself as the recognition of similarity of efforts and goals
amongst organisms by those organisms.
AXIOM 113. REALITY IS THE AGREEMENT UPON PERCEPTIONS AND DATA IN
THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE.
All that we can be sure is real is that on which we have agreed is real.
Agreement is the essence of reality.
AXIOM 114. COMMUNICATION IS THE INTERCHANGE OF PERCEPTION
THROUGH THE MATERIAL UNIVERSE BETWEEN ORGANISMS OR
THE PERCEPTION OF THE MATERIAL UNVERSE BY SENSE
CHANNELS.
AXIOM 115. SELF-DETERMINISM IS THE THETA CONTROL OF THE
ORGANISM.
AXIOM 116. A SELF DETERMINED EFFORT IS THAT COUNTER-EFFORT
WHICH HAS BEEN RECEIVED INTO THE ORGANISM IN THE PAST
AND INTEGRATED INTO THE ORGANISM FOR ITS CONSCIOUS
USE.
AXIOM 117. THE COMPONENTS OF SELF-DETERMINISM ARE AFFINITY,
COMMUNICATION AND REALITY.
Self-determinism is manifested along each dynamic.
AXIOM 118. AN ORGANISM CANNOT BECOME ABERRATED UNLES IT HAS
AGREED UPON THAT ABERRATION, HAS BEEN IN
COMUNICATION WITH A SOURCE OF ABERRATION AND HAS
HAl~ AFFINITY FOR THE ABERRATOR..AXIOM 119. AGREEMENT WITH ANY SOURCE CONTRA- OR PRO-SURVIVAL
POSTULATES A NEW REALITY FOR THE ORGANISM.
AXIOM 120. NON-SURVIVAL COURSES, THOUGHTS AND ACTIONS REQUIRE
NON-OPTIMUM EFFORT.
AXIOM 121. EVERY THOUGHT HAS BEEN PRECEDED BY PHYSICAL ACTION.
AXIOM I22. THE MIND DOES WITH THOUGHT AS lT HAS DONE WITH
ENTlTIES IN THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE.
AXIOM 123. ALL EFFORT CONCERNED WlTH PAlN lS CONCERNED WITH
LOSS.
Organisms hold pain and engrams to them as a latent effort to prevent loss
of some portion of the organism. All loss is a loss of motion.
AXIOM 124. THE AMOUNT OF COUNTER- EFFORT THE ORGANISM CAN
OVERCOME IS PROPORTIONAL TO THE THETA ENDOWMENT OF
THE ORGANISM, MODIFIED BY THE PHYSIQUE OF THAT
ORGANISM.
AXIOM 125. EXCESSIVE COUNTER-EFFORT TO THE EFFORT OF LIFE
ORGANISM PRODUCES UNCONSCIOUSNESS.
COROLLARY: UNCONSCIOUSNESS GIVES THE SUPPRESSION OF AN
ORGANISM’S CONTROL CENTER BY COUNTER-EFFORT.
DEFINITION: THE CONTROL CENTER OF THE ORGANISM CAN BE DEFINED AS
THE CONTACT POINT BETWEEN THETA AND THE PHYSICAL
UNIVERSE AND IS THAT CENTER WHICH IS AWARE OF BEING
AWARE AND WHICH HAS CHARGE OF AND RESPONSIBILITY
FOR THE ORGANISM ALONG ALL ITS DYNAMICS.
AXIOM 126. PERCEPTIONS ARE ALWAYS RECEIVED IN THE CONTROL
CENTER OF AN ORGANISM WHETHER THE CONTROL CENTER IS
IN CONTROL OF THE ORGANISM AT THE TIME OR NOT.
This is an explanation for the assumption of valences.
AXIOM 127. ALL PERCEPTIONS REACHING THE ORGANISM’S SENSE
CHANNELS ARE RECORDED AND STORED BY THETA FACSIMILE.
DEFINlTION PERCEPTION IS THE PROCESS OF RECORDING DATA FROM THE
PHYSICAL UNIVERSE AND STORING IT AS A THETA FACSIMILE.
DEFINITION: RECALL IS THE PROCESS OF REGAINING PERCEPTIONS.
AXIOM 128. ANY ORGANISM CAN RECALL EVERYTHING WHICH IT HAS
PERCElVED.
AXIOM 129. AN ORGANISM DISPLACED BY PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY IS
THEREAFTER REMOTE FROM THE PERCEPTION RECORDING
CENTER.
Increased remoteness brings about occlusions of perceptions. One can
perceive things in present time and then, because they are being recorded
after they passed THETA perception of the awareness unit, they are
recorded but cannot be recalled..AXIOM 130. THETA FACSIMILES OF COUNTER- EFFORT ARE; ALL THAT
INTERPOSE BETWEEN THE CONTROL CENTER AND ITS
RECALLS.
AXIOM 131. ANY COUNTER- EFFORT RECEIVED INTO A CONTROL CENTER IS
ALWAYS ACCOMPANIED BY ALL PERCEPTICS.
AXIOM 132. THE RANDOM COUNTER- EFFORTS TO AN ORGANISM AND THE
INTERMINGLED PERCEPTIONS IN THE RANDOMITY CAN RE-EXERT
THAT FORCE UPON AN ORGANISM WHEN
RESTIMULATED.
DEFINITION: RESTIMULATION IS THE REACTIVATION OF A PAST COUNTER-EFFORT
BY APPEARANCE IN THE ORGANISM’S ENVIRONMENT
OF A SIMILARITY TOWARD THE CONTENT OF TiIE PAST
RANDOMITY AREA.
AXIOM 133. SELF-DETERMINISM ALONE BRINGS ABOUT THE MECHANISM
OF RESTIMULATION.
AXIOM 134. A REACTIVATED AREA OF THE PAST RANDOMITY IMPINGES THE
EFFORT AND THE PERCEPTIONS UPON THE ORGANlSM.
AXIOM 135. ACTIVATION OF A RANDOMITY AREA IS ACCOMPLISHED FIRST
BY THE PERCEPTIONS, THEN BY THE PAIN, FINALLY BY THE
EFFORT.
AXIOM 136. THE MIND IS PLASTICALLY CAPABLE OF RECORDING ALL
EFFORTS AND COUNTER- EFFORTS.
AXIOM 137. A COUNTER-EFFORT ACCOMPANIED BY SUFFICIENT
(ENRANDOMED) FORCE IMPRESSES THE FACSIMILE OF THE
COUNTER-EFFORT PERSONALITY INTO THE MIND OF AN
ORGANISM.
AXIOM 138. ABERRATION IS THE DEGREE OF RESlDUAL PLUS OR MINUS
RANDOMITY ACCUMULATED BY COMPELLING, INHIBITING, OR
UNWARRENTED ASSISTING OF EFFORTS ON THE PART OF
OTHER ORGANISMS OR THE PHYSICAL (MATERIAL) UNIVERSE.
Aberration is caused by what is done to the individual, not what the
individual does, plus his self-determinism about what has been done to him.
AXIOM 139. ABERRATED BEHAVIOUR CONSISTS OF DESTRUCTIVE EFFORT
TOWARD PRO-SURVIVAL DATA OR ENTITIES ON ANY DYNAMIC,
OR EFFORT TOWARD THE SURVIVAL OF CONTRA SURVIVAL
DATA OR ENTITIES FOR ANY DYNAMIC.
AXIOM 140. A VALENCE IS A FACSIMILE PERSONALITY MADE CAPABLE OF
FORCE BY THE COUNTER- EFFORT OF THE MOMENT OR RECEIPT
I N T O T H E P L U S O R M I N U S R A N D O M I T Y O F
UNCONSCIOUSNESS.
Valences are assistive, compulsive or inhibitive to the organism.
A CONTROL CENTER IS NOT A VALENCE..AXIOM 141. A CONTROL CENTER EFFORT IS ALIGNED TOWARD A GOAL
THROUGH DEFINITE SPACE AS A RECOGNIZED INCIDENT IN
TIME.
AXIOM 142. AN ORGANISM IS AS HEALTHY AND SANE AS IT IS SELF
DETERMINED.
The environmental control of the organism motorcontrol inhibits the
organisms ability to change with the changing environment, since , the
organism will attempt to carry forward with one set of responses when it
needs by self-determinism to create another to survive in another
environment.
AXIOM 143. ALL LEARNING IS ACCOMPLISHED BY RANDOM EFFECT.
AXIOM 144. A COUNTER-EFFORT PRODUCING SUFFICIENT PLUS OR MlNUS
RANDOMITY TO RECORD IS RECORDED WITH AN INDEX OF
SPACE AND TIME AS HIDDEN AS THE REMAINDER OF lTS
CONTENT.
AXIOM 145. A COUNTER- EFFORT PRODUCING SUFFICIENT PLUS OR MINUS
RANDOMITY WHEN ACTIVATED BY RESTIMULATION EXERTS
ITSELF AGAINST THE ENVIRONMENT OR THE ORGANISM
WITHOUT REGARD TO SPACE AND TIME. EXCEPT REACTIVATED
PERCEPTIONS.
AXIOM 146. COUNTER-EFFORTS ARE DIRECTED OUT FROM THE ORGANISM
UNTIL THEY ARE FURTHER ENRANDOMED BY THE
ENVIRONMENT AT WHICH TIME THEY AGAIN ACTIVATE
AGAINST THE CONTROL CENTER.
AXIOM 147. AN ORGANISM’S MIND EMPLOYS COUNTER- EFFORTS
EFFECTIVELY ONLY SO LONG AS INSUFFIClENT PLUS OR
MINUS RANDOMITY EXISTS TO HIDE DIFFERENTIATION OF THE
FACSIMILES CREATED.
AXIOM 148. PHYSICAL LAWS ARE LEARNED BY LIFE ENERGY OR BY
IMPINGEMENT OF THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE PRODUCING
RANDOMITY, AND A WITHDRAWAL FROM THAT IMPINGEMENT.
AXIOM 149. LIFE DEPENDS UPON AN ALIGNMENT OF FORCE VECTORS IN
THE DlRECTION OF SURVIVAL AND THE NULLIFICATION OF
FORCE VECTORS IN THE DIRECTION OF SUCCUMB IN ORDER TO
SURVIVE.
COROLLARY: LIFE DEPENDS UPON AN ALIGNMENT OF FORCE VECTORS IN
THE DIRECTION OF SUCCUMB AND THE NULLIFICATION OF
FORCE VECTORS IN THE DIRECTION OF SURVIVE IN ORDER TO
SUCCUMB.
AXIOM 150. ANY AREA OF RANDOMITY GATHERS TO IT SITUATIONS
SIMILAR TO IT WHICH DO NOT CONTAIN ACTUAL EFFORTS BUT
ONLY PERCEPTION.
AXIOM 151. WHETHER AN ORGANISM HAS THE GOAL OF SURVIVING OR
SUCCUMBING DEPENDS UPON THE AMOUNT OF PLUS OR
MINUS RANDOMITY IT HAS REACTIVATED. (NOT RESIDUAL).AXIOM 152. SURVIVAL IS ACCOMPLISHED ONLY BY MOTION.
AXIOM 153. IN THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE THE ABSENCE OF MOTION IS
VANISHMENT.
AXIOM 154. DEATH IS THE EQUIVALENT TO LIFE OF TOTAL LACK OF LIFE-MOTIVATED
MOTION.
AXIOM 155. ACQUISITION OF PRO-SURVIVAL MATTER AND ENERGY OR
ORGANISMS IN SPACE AND TIME MEANS INCREASED MOTION.
AXIOM 156. LOSS OF PRO-SURVIVAL MATTER AND ENERGY OR ORGANISMS
IN SPACE AND TIME MEANS DECREASED MOTION.
AXIOM 157. ACQUISITION OR PROXIMITY OF MATTER, ENERGY OR
ORGANISMS WHICH ASSIST THE SURVIVAL OF AN ORGANISM
INCREASE THE SURVIVAL POTENTIALS OF AN ORGANISM.
AXIOM 158. ACQUISITION OR PROXIMITY OF MATTER, ENERGY OR
ORGANISMS WHICH INHIBIT THE SURVIVAL OF AN ORGANISM
DECREASE ITS SURVIVAL POTENTIAL.
AXIOM 159. GAIN OF SURVIVAL ENERGY, MATTER OR ORGANISlMS
INCREACE THE FREEDOM OF AN ORGANISM,
AXIOM 160. RECEIPT OR PROXIMITY OF NON-SURVIVAL ENERGY, MATTER
OR TIME DECREASE THE FREEDOM OF MOTION OF AN
ORGANISM.
AXIOM 161. THE CONTROL CENTER ATTEMPTS THE HALTING OR
LENGTHENING OF TIME, THE EXPANSION OR CONTRACTION OF
SPACE AND THE DECREASE OR INCREASE OF ENERGY AND
MATTER.
This is a primary source of invalidation, and it is also a primary source of
aberration.
AXIOM 162. PAIN IS THE BALK OF EFFORT BY COUNTER-EFFORT IN GREAT
INTENSITY, WHETHER THAT EFFORT IS TO REMAIN A REST OR
IN MOTION.
AXIOM 163. PERCEPTION, INCLUDING PAIN, CAN BE EXHAUSTED FROM AN
AREA OF PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMlTY STILL LEAVING THE
EFFORT AND COUNTER-EFFORT OF THAT PLUS OR MINUS
RANDOMITY.
AXIOM 164. THE RATIONALITY OF THE MIND DEPENDS UPON AN OPTIMUM
REACTION TOWARD TIME.
DEFINITION: SANITY, THE COMPUTATlON OF FUTURES.
DEFINITION: NEURTIC, THE COMPUTATION OF PRESENT TlME ONLY.
DEFINITION: PSYCHOTIC COMPUTATION ONLY OF PAST SITUATIONS.
AXIOM 165. SURVIVAL PERTAINS ONLY TO THE FUTURE.
COROLLARY: SUCCUMB PERTAINS ONLY TO THE PRESENT AND PAST..AXIOM 166. AN INDIVIDUAL IS AS HAPPY AS HE CAN PERCEIVE SURVIVAL
POTENTIALS IN THE ,FUTURE.
AXIOM 167. AS THE NEEDS OF ANY ORGANISM ARE MET IT RISES HIGHER
AND HIGHER IN ITS EFFORTS ALONG THE DYNAMICS.
An organism which achieves ARC with itself can better achieve ARC with
sex in the future; having achieved this it can achieve ARC with groups;
having achieved this, it can achieve ARC with mankind etc.
AXIOM 168. AFFINITY, REALITY AND COMMUNICATION CO-EXIST IN AN
INEXTRICABLE RELATIONSHIP.
The co- existent relationship between affinity, reality and communication is
such that none can be increased without increasing theother two ,and none
can be decreased without decreasing the other two.
AXIOM 169. ANY AESTHETIC PRODUCT IS A SYMBOLIC FACSIMILE OR
COMB[NATION OF FACSIMILES OF THETA OR PHYSICAL
UNIVERSES IN VARIED RANDOMITIES AND VOLUMES OF
RANDOMITIES WITH THE INTERPLAY OF TONES.
AXIOM 170. AN AESTHETIC PRODUCT IS AN INTERPRETATION OF
UNIVERSES BY AN INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP MIND.
AXIOM 171. DELUSION IS THE POSTULATION BY THE IMAGINATION
OCCURANCES IN AREAS OF PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY.
AXIOM 172. DREAMS ARE THE IMAGINATIVE RECONSTRUCTION OF AREAS
OF RANDOMITY OR THE RE-SYMBOLIZATION OF THE EFFORTS
OF THETA.
AXIOM 173. A MOTION IS CREATED BY THE DEGREE OF OPTIMUM
RANDOMITY INTRODUCED BY THE COUNTER-EFFORT TO AN
ORGANISMS EFFORT.
AXIOM 174. MEST, WHICH HAS BEEN MOBILIZED BY LIFE FORMS, IS IN
AFFINITY WITH LIFE FORMS THAN NON- MOBILIZED MEST.
AXlOM 175. ALL PAST PERCEPTION, CONCLUSION AND EXISTENCE
MOMENTS INCLUDING THOSE OF PLUS,OR MINUS RANDOMITY
ARE RECOVERABLE TO THE CONTROL CENTER OF THE
ORGANISM.
AXIOM 176. THE ABILITY TO PRODUCE SURVIVAL EFFORT ON THE PART OF
AN ORGANISM IS AFFECTED BY THE DEGREES OF RANDOMITY
EXISTING IN ITS PAST. (THIS INCLUDES LEARNING)
AXIOM 177. AREAS OF PAST PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY CAN BE
READDRESSED BY THE CONTROL CENTER OF AN ORGANISM
AND THE PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY EXHAUSTED.
AXIOM 178. THE EXHAUSTION OF PAST PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITIES
PERMITS THE CONTROL CENTER OF AN ORGANISM TOEFFECT
ITS OWN EFFORTS TOWARD SURVIVAL GOALS..AXIOM 179. THE EXHAUSTION OF SELF- DETERMINED EFFORT FROM A PAST
AREA OF PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY NULLIFIES THE
EFFECTIVENESS OF THAT AREA.
AXIOM 180. PAIN IS THE RANDOMITY PRODUCED BY SUDDEN OR STRONG
COUNTER- EFFORTS.
AXIOM 181. PAIN IS STORED AS PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY.
AXIOM 182. PAIN, AS AN AREA OF PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY, CAN RE-INFLICT
ITSELF UPON THE ORGANISM.
AXIOM 183. PAST PAIN BECOMES INEFFECTIVE UPON THE ORGANISM
WHEN THE RANDOMITY OF ITS AREA IS ADDRESSED AND
ALIGNED.
AXIOM 184. THE EARLIER THE AREA OF PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY THE
GREATER SELF-PRODUCED EFFORT EXISTED TO REPEL IT.
AXIOM 185. LATER AREAS OF PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY CANNOT BE RE-ALIGNED
EASILY UNTIL EARLIER AREAS ARE RE- ALIGNED.
AXIOM 186. AREAS OF PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY BECOME INCREASED IN
ACTIVITY WHEN PERCEPTIONS OF SIMILARITY ARE
INTRODUCED INTO THEM.
AXIOM 187. PAST AREAS OF PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY CAN BE REDUCED
AND ALIGNED BY ADDRESS TO THEM IN PRESENT TIME.
AXIOM 188. ABSOLUTE GOOD AND ABSOLUTE EVIL DO NOT EXIST IN THE
MEST UNIVERSE.
AXIOM 189. THAT WHICH IS GOOD FOR AN ORGANISM MAY BE DEFINED AS
THAT WHICH PROMOTES THE SURVIVAL OF THAT ORGANISM.
COROLLARY: EVIL MAY BE DEFINED AS THAT WHICH INHIBITS OR BRINGS
PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY INTO THE ORGANISM WHICH IS
CONTRARY TO THE SURVIVAL MOTIVES OF THE ORGANISM.
AXIOM 190. HAPPINESS CONSISTS OF THE ACT OF BRINGING ALIGNMENT
INTO HITHER TO RESISTING PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY.
NEITHER THE ACT OR ACTION OF ATTAINING SURVIVAL, NOR
THE ACCOMPLISHMENT OF THIS ACT ITSELF, BRINGS ABOUT
HAPPINESS.
AXIOM 191. CONSTRUCTION IS AN ALIGNMENT OF DATA.
COROLLARY: DESTRUCTION IS A PLUS OR MINUS RANDOMITY OF DATA.
The effort of construction is the alignrnent toward the survival of the
aligning organism.
Destruction is the effort of bringing randomity into an area.
AXIOM 192. OPTIMUM SURVIVAL BEHAVIOUR CONSISTS OF EFFORT IN THE
MAXIMUM SURVIVAL INTEREST IN EVERYTHING CONCERNED
IN THE DYNAMICS..AXIOM 193. THE OPTIMUM SURVIVAL SOLUTION OF ANY PROBLEM WOULD
CONSIST OF THE HIGHEST ATTAINABLE SURVIVAL FOR. EVERY
DYNAMIC CONCERNED.
AXIOM 194. THE WORTH OF ANY ORGANISM CONSISTS OF ITS VALUE TO
THE SURVIVAL OF ITS OWN THETA ALONG ANY DYNAMIC..
THE AXIOMS
OF SCIENTOLOGY
by
L. RON HUBBARD
AXIOM 1. LIFE IS BASICALLY A STATIC.
Definition: a Life Static has no mass, no motion, no wavelength, no location
in space or in time. It has the ability to postulate and to perceive.
AXIOM 2. THE STATIC IS CAPABLE OF CONSIDERATIONS, POSTULATES,
AND OPINIONS.
AXIOM 3. SPACE, ENERGY, OBJECTS, FORM, AND TIME ARE THE RESULT
OF CONSIDERATIONS MADE AND/OR AGREED UPON BY THE
STATIC, AND ARE PERCEIVED SOLELY BECAUSE THE STATIC
CONSIDERS THAT lT CAN PERCEIVE THEM.
AXIOM 4. SPACE IS A VIEWPOINT OF DIMENSION.
AXIOM 5. ENERGY CONSISTS OF POSTULATED PARTICLES IN SPACE.
AXIOM 6. OBJECTS CONSIST OF GROUPED PARTICLES.
AXIOM 7. TIME IS BASICALLY A POSTULATE THAT SPACE AND PARTICLES
WILL PERSIST.
AXIOM 8. THE APPARENCY OF TIME IS THE CHANGE OF POSlTION OF
PARTICLES IN SPACE.
AXIOM 9. CHANGE IS THE PRIMARY MANIFESTATION OF TIME.
AXIOM 10. THE HIGHEST PURPOSE IN THE UNIVERSE IS THE CRE - ATION
OF AN EFFECT.
AXIOM 11. THE CONSIDERATIONS RESULTING IN CONDITIONS OF
EXISTENCE ARE FOUR FOLD.
a. AS-IS-NESS is the condition of immediate creation without
persistence, and is the condition of existence which exists at the
moment of creation and destruction, and is different from other
considerations in that it does not contain survival.
b. ALTER-IS-NESS is the consideration which introduces change, and
therefore time and persistence into an AS-IS-NESS to obtain
persistency.
c. IS-NESS is an apparency of existence brought about by the
continuous alteration of an AS-IS-NESS. This is called, when
agreed apon, Reality..d. NOT-IS-NESS is the effort to handle IS-NESS by reducing its
condition through the use of force. It is an apparency and cannot
entirely vanquish an IS-NESS.
AXIOM 12. THE PRIMARY CONDITION OF ANY UNIVERSE IS THAT TWO
SPACES, ENERGIES, OR OBJECTS MUST NOT OCCUPY THE SAME
SPACE. WHEN THIS CONDITION IS VIOLATED (PERFECT
DUPLICATE) THE APPARENCY OF ANY UNIVERSE OR ANY PART
THEREOF IS NULLED.
AXIOM 13. THE CYCLE OF ACTION OF THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE IS
CREATE, SURVIVE (PERSIST), DESTROY.
AXIOM 14. SURVIVAL IS ACCOMPLISHED BY ALTER-IS-NESS AND NOT-IS-NESS,
BY WHICH IS GAINED THE PERSISTENCY KNOWN AS
TIME.
AXIOM 15. CREATION IS ACCOMPLISHED BY THE POSTULATION OF AN AS-IS-
NESS.
AXIOM 16. COMPLETE DESTRUCTION IS ACCOMPLISHED BY THE
POSTULATION OF THE AS-IS-NESS OF ANY EXISTENCE AND THE
PARTS THEREOF.
AXIOM 17. THE STATIC, HAVING POSTULATED AS-IS-NESS, THEN
PRACTICES ALTER-IS-NESS, AND SO ACHIEVES THE
APPARENCY OF IS-NESS AND SO OBTAINS REALITY.
AXIOM 18. THE STATIC, IN PRACTICING NOT-Is-NESS, BRINGS ABOUT THE
PERSISTENCE OF UNWANTED EXISTENCES AND SO BRINGS
ABOUT UNREALITY, WHICH INCLUDES FORGETFUL NESS,
UNCONSCIOUSNESS, AND OTHER UNDESIRABLE STATES.
AXIOM 19. BRINGING THE STATIC TO VIEW AS-IS ANY CONDITION
DEVALUATES THAT CONDITION.
AXIOM 20. BRINGING THE STATIC TO CREATE A PERFECT DUPLICATE
CAUSES THE VANISHMENT OF ANY EXISTENCE OR PART
THEREOF.
A perfect duplicate is an additional creation of the object, its energy and
space, in its own space, in its own time, using its own energy. This violates
the condition that two objects must not occupy the space, and causes
vanishment of the object.
AXIOM 21. UNDERSTANDING IS COMPOSED OF AFFINITY. REALITY AND
COMMUNICATION.
AXIOM 22. THE PRACTICE OF NOT-IS-NESS REDUCES UNDERSTANDING.
AXIOM 23. THE STATIC HAS THE CAPABILITY OF TOTAL KNOWINGNESS.
TOTAL KNOWINGNESS WOULD CONSIST OF TOTAL ARC.
AXIOM 24. TOTAL ARC WOULD BRING ABOUT THE VANISHMENT OF ALL
MECHANICAL CONDITIONS OF EXISTENCE.
AXIOM 25. AFFINITY IS A SCALE OF ATTITUDES WHICH FALLS AWAY FROM
T H E C O -E X I S T E N C E O F S T A T I C , T H R O U G H T H E.INTERPOSITIONS OF DISTANCE AND ENERGY, TO CREATE
IDENTITY, DOWN TO CLOSE PROXIMITY BUT MYSTERY.
By the practice of IS-ness (Beingness) and Not-is-ness (refusal to be)
individuation progresses from the Knowingness of complete identification
down through the introduction of more and more distance and less and less
duplication, through Lookingness, Emotingness, Effortingness,
Thinkingness, Symbolizingness, Eatingness, Sexingness, and so through to
not-Knowingness (Mystery). Until the point of Mystery is reached, some
commu- nication is possible, but even at Mystery an attempt to communicate
continues. Here we have. in the case of an individual, a gradual falling away
from the belief that one can assume a complete Affinity down to the
conviction that all is a complete Mystery. Any individual is somewhere in
this Know-to-Mystery scale. The original Chart of Human Evaluation was
the Emotion section of this scale.
AXIOM 26. REALITY IS THE AGREED-UPON APPARENCY OF EXISTENCE.
AXIOM 27. AN ACTUALITY CAN EXIST FOR ONE INDIVIDUALLY BUT WHEN
IT IS AGREED WITH BY OTHERS IT CAN THEN BE SAID TO BE A
REALITY.
The anatomy of Reality is contained in Is-ness, which is composed of As-is-ness
and Alter-is-ness. Is-ness Is an apparency, it is not an Actuality. The
Actuality is As-is-ness altered so as to obtain a persistency.
Unreality is the consequence and apparency of the practice of Not-is-ness.
AXIOM 28. COMMUNlCATION IS THE CONSIDERATION AND ACTION OF
IMPELLING AN IMPULSE OR PARTICLE FROM SOURCE- POINT
ACROSS A DISTANCE TO RECEIPT- POINT, WITH THE INTENTION
OF BRINGING INTO BEING AT THE RECEIPT-POINT A
DUPLICATION OF THAT WHICH EMANATED FROM THE SOURCE -POINT.
The formula of Communication is: Cause, Distance, Effect, with Attention
and Duplication.
The component parts of Communication are Consideration. Intention,
Attention, Cause, Source-point, Distance, Effect, Receipt-point Duplication,
the Velocity of the impulse or particle, Nothingness or Somethingness. A
non-Communication consists of Barriers.
Barriers consist of Space, Interpositions (such as walls and screens of fast-moving
particles), and Time. A communication, by definition does not need
to be two-way. When a communication is returned, the formula is repeated,
with the receipt-point now becoming a source-point and the former source-point
now becoming a receipt point.
AXIOM 29. IN ORDER TO CAUSE AN AS-IS-NESS TO PERSIST, 0NE MUST
ASSIGN OTHER AUTHORSHLP TO THE CREATION THAN HIS
OWN. OTHERWISE, HIS VIEW OF IT WOULD CAUSE ITS VANISH-MENT.
Any space, energy, form, object, individual, or physical universe condition
can exist only when an alteration has occurred of the original As-is-ness so
as to prevent a casual view from vanishing it.
In other words, anything which is persisting must contain a “lie” so that the
original consideration is not completely duplicated..AXIOM 30. THE GENERAL RULE OF AUDITING IS THAT ANYTHING WHICH
IS UNWANTED AND YET PERSISTS MUST BE THOROUGHLY
VIEWED, AT WHICH TIME IT WILL VANISH.
If only partially viewed, its intensity, at least, will decrease.
AXIOM 31. GOODNESS AND BADNESS, BEAUTIFULNESS AND UGLINESS,
ARE ALIKE CONSIDERATIONS AND HAYE NO OTHER BASIS
THAN OPINION.
AXIOM 32. ANYTHING WHICH IS NOT DIRECTLY OBSERVED TENDS TO
PERSIST.
AXIOM 33. ANY AS-IS-NESS WHICH IS ALTERED BY NOT-IS-NESS ( BY
FORCE ) TENDS TO PERSIST.
AXIOM 34. ANY IS-NESS, WHEN ALTERED BY FORCE, TENDS TO PERSIST.
AXIOM 35. THE ULTIMATE TRUTH IS A STATIC.
A Static has no mass, meaning, mobility, no wave-length, no time, no
location in space, no space.
This has the technical name of “Basic Truth.”
AXIOM 36. A LIE IS A SECOND POSTULATE, STATEMENT OR CONDITION
DESIGNED TO MASK A PRIMARY POSTULATE WHICH IS
PERMITTED TO REMAIN.
Examples:
Neither truth nor a lie is a motion or alteration of a particle from one position
to another.
A lie is a statement that a particle having moved did not move, or a statement
that a particle, not having moved, did move.
The basic lie is that a consideration which was made was not made or that it
was different.
AXIOM 37. WHEN A PRIMARY CONSIDERATION IS ALTERED BUT STILL
EXISTS, PERSISTENCE IS ACHIEVED FOR THE ALTERING
CONSIDERATION.
All persistence depends on the Basic Truth, but the persistence is of the
altering consideration, for the Basic Truth has neither persistence nor
impersistence.
AXIOM 38. 1: STUPIDITY IS THE UNKNOWNESS OF CONSIDERATION.
2: MECHANICAL DEFINITION: STUPIDITY IS THE UN -KNOWNESS
OF TIME, PLACE, FORM AND EVENT.
Thus we see that failure to discover Truth brings about stupidity.
Thus we see that the discovery of Truth would bring about an As-is- ness
by actual experiment..Thus we see that an ultimate truth would have no time, place form or event.
Thus, then, we perceive that we can achieve a persistence only when we
mask a truth.
Lying is an alteration of time, place, event, or form.
Lying becomes Alter-is-ness, becomes Stupidity.
(The blackness of cases is an accumulation of the case’s own or another’s
lies.)
Anything which persists must avoid As-is-ness. Thus anything, to persist,
must contain a lie.
AXIOM 39. LIFE POSES PROBLEMS FOR ITS OWN SOLUTION.
AXIOM 40. ANY PROBLEM, TO BE A PROBLEM, MUST CONTAIN A LIE. IF IT
WERE TRUTH, IT WOULD UNMOCK.
An “unsolvable problem” would have the greatest persistence. It would also
contain the greatest number of altered facts. To make a problem, one must
introduce Alter-is-ness.
AXIOM 41. THAT INTO WHICH ALTER-IS-NESS IS INTRODUCED BE- COMES
A PROBLEM.
AXIOM 42. MEST (MATTER, ENERGY, SPACE, TIME) PERSISTS BECAUSE IT
IS A PROBLEM.
It is a problem because it contains Alter-is-ness.
AXIOM 43. TIME IS THE PRIMARY SOURCE OF UNTRUTH.
Time states the untruth of consecutive considerations.
AXIOM 44. THETA (THE STATIC) HAS NO LOCATION IN MATTER, ENERGY,
SPACE OR TIME. IT IS CAPABLE OF CONSIDERATlON.
AXIOM 45. THETA CAN CONSIDER ITSELF TO BE PLACED, AT WHICH
MOMENT IT BECOMES PLACED, AND TO THAT DEGREE A
PROBLEM.
AXIOM 46. THETA CAN BECOME A PROBLEM BY ITS CONSIDERATIONS,
BUT THEN BECOMES MEST.
A problem is to some degree MEST. MEST is a problem.
AXIOM 47. THETA CAN RESOLVE PROBLEMS .
AXIOM 48. LIFE IS A GAME WHEREIN THETA AS THE STATIC SOLVES THE
PROBLEMS OF THETA AS MEST.
AXIOM 49. TO SOLVE ANY PROBLEM IT IS ONLY NECESSARY TO BECOME
THETA, THE SOLVER, RATHER THAN THETA, THE PROBLEM..AXIOM 50. THETA AS MEST MUST CONTAIN CONSIDERATIONS WHICH ARE
LIES.
AXIOM 51. POSTULATES AND LIVE COMMUNICATION NOT BEING MEST
AND BEING SENIOR TO MEST CAN ACCOMPLISH CHANGE IN
MEST WITHOUT BRINGING ABOUT A PERSISTENCE OF MEST.
THUS AUDITING CAN OCCUR.
AXIOM 52. MEST PERSISTS AND SOLIDIFIES TO THE DEGREE THAT IT IS
NOT GRANTED LIFE..THE PRELOGICS
Q. 1. SELF DETERMINISM IS THE COMMON DENOMINATOR OF ALL LIFE
IMPULSES.
Q. 2. DEFINITION OF SELF-DETERMINISM: THE ABILITY TO LOCATE IN SPACE
AND TIME ENERGY AND MATTER, ALSO THE ABILITY TO CREATE AND
LOCATE ENERGY AND MATTER.
Q. 3. THE IDENTIFICATION OF THE SOURCE OF THAT WHICH PLACES MATTER
AND ENERGY AND ORIGINATES SPACE AND TIME IS NOT NECESSARY TO
THE RESOLUTION OF THIS PROBLEM AT THIS TIME.
Q. 4. THETA CREATES SPACE, ENERGY AND OBJECTS BY POSTULATES.
Q. 5. UNIVERSES ARE CREATED BY THE APPLICATION OF SELF DETERMINISM
ON 8 DYNAMICS.
Q. 6. SELF-DETERMINISM, APPLIED, WILL CREATE, ALTER, CONSERVE AND
POSSIBLY DESTROY UNIVERSES.
Q. 7. THE ACTION CYCLE IS ONE OF THE ABILITIES OF A THETAN. AN ACTION
CYCLE GOES FROM 40. 0 TO 0. 0 ON THE TONE SCALE. AN ACTION CYCLE
ISTHE CREATION, GROWTH CONSERVATION, DECAY AND DEATH OR
DESTRUCTION OF ENERGY AND MATTER IN A SPACE. ACTION CYCLES
PRODUCE TIME..THE LOGICS
LOGlC 1. KNOWLEDGE IS A WHOLE GROUP OR SUB-DIVISION OF A
GROUP OF DATA OR SPECULATIONS OR CONCLUSIONS ON
DATA OR METHODS OF GAINING DATA.
LOGIC 2. A BODY OF KNOWLEDGE IS A BODY OF DATA, ALIGNED OR
UNALIGNED, OR METHODS OF GAINING DATA.
LOGIC 3. ANY KNOWLEDGE WHICH CAN BE SENSED, MEASURED OR
EXPERIENCED BY ANY ENTITY IS CAPABLE OF INFLUENCING
THAT ENTITY.
COROLLARY: THAT KNOWLEDGE WHICH CANNOT BE SENSED, MEASURED OR
EXPERIENCED BY ANY ENTITY OR TYPE OF ENTITY CANNOT
INFLUENCE THAT ENTITY OR TYPE OF ENTITY,
LOGIC 4. A DATUM IS A FACSIMILE OF STATES OF BEING, STATES OF NOT
BEING, ACTIONS OR INACTIONS, CONCLUSIONS, OR
SUPPOSITIONS IN THE PHYSICAL OR ANY OTHER UNIVERSE.
LOGIC 5. A DEFINITION OF TERMS IS NECESSARY TO THE ALIGNMENT,
STATEMENT AND RESOLUTION OF SUPPOSITlONS,
OBSERVATIONS, PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS AND THEIR
COMMUNICATION.
DEFINITION - DESCRIPTIVE DEFINITION: ONE WHICH CLASSIFIES BY
CHARACTERISTICS, BY DESCRIBING EXISTING STATES OF
BEING.
DEFINITION - DIFFERENTIATIVE DEFINITION: ONE WHICH COMPARES
UNLIKENESS TO EXISTING STATES OF BEING OR NOT BEING.
DEFINITION - ASSOCIATIVE DEFINITION: ONE WHICH DECLARES LIKENESS TO
EXISTING STATES OF BEING OR NOT BEING.
DEFINITION - ACTION DEFINITION: ONE WHICH DELINEATES CAUSE AND
POTENTIAL CHANGE OF STATE OF BEING BY CAUSE OF
EXISTENCE, INEXISTENCE, ACTION, INACTION, PURPOSE OR
LACK OF PURPOSE.
LOGIC 6. ABSOLUTES ARE UNOBTAlNABLE.
LOGIC 7. GRADIENT SCALES ARE NECESSARY TO THE EVALUATION OF
PROBLEMs AND THEIR DATA.
This is the tool of infinity valued logic: Absolutes are unobtainable. Terms
such as good and bad, alive and dead, right and wrong are used only in
conjunction with gradient scales. On the scale of right and wrong,
everything above zero or center would be more and more right, approaching
an infinite rightness, and every- thing below center would be more and more
wrong approaching infinite wrongness. All things assisting the survival of
the survivor are considered to be right for the survivor. All things inhibiting
survival from the viewpoint of the survivor can be considered to be wrong
for the survivor. The more a thing assists survival, the more it can be.considered right for the survivor. The more a thing or action inhibits
survival, the more it is wrong from the viewpoint of the intended survivor.
COROLLARY - ANY DATUM HAS ONLY RELATIVE TRUTH.
COROLLARY - TRUTH IS RELATIVE TO ENVIRONMENTS EXPERIENCE AND
TRUTH.
LOGIC 8. A DATUM CAN BE EVALUATED ONLY BY A DATUM OF
COMPARABLE MAGNITUDE.
LOGIC 9. A DATUM IS AS VALUABLE AS IT HAS BEEN EVALUATED.
LOGIC 10. THE VALUE OF A DATUM IS ESTABLISHED BY THE AMOUNT OF
ALIGNMENT (RELATIONSHIP) IT IMPARTS TO OTHER DATA.
LOGIC 11. THE VALUE OF A DATUM OR FIELD OF DATA CAN BE
ESTABLISHED BY ITS DEGREE OF ASSISTANCE IN SURVIVAL OR
ITS INHIBITION TO SURVIVAL.
LOGIC 12. THE VALUE OF A DATUM OR A FIELD OF DATA IS MODIFIED BY
THE VIEWPOINT OF THE OBSERVER.
LOGIC 13. PROBLEMS ARE RESOLVED BY COMPARTMENTING THEM INTO
AREAS OF SIMILAR MAGNITUDE AND DATA, COMPARING THEM
TO DATA ALREADY KNOWN OR PARTIALLY KNOWN, AND
RESOLVING EACH AREA, DATA WHICH CANNOT BE KNOWN
IMMEDIATELY MAY BE RESOLVED BY ADDRESSING WHAT IS
KNOWN AND USING ITS SOLUTION TO RESOLVE THE
REMAINDER.
LOGIC 14. FACTORS INTRODUCED INTO A PROBLEM OR SOLUTION WHICH
DO NOT DERIVE FROM NATURAL LAW BUT ONLY
AUTHORITARIAN COMMAND, ABERRATE THAT PROBLEM OR
SOLUTION.
LOGIC 15. THE INTRODUCTION OF AN ARBITRARY INTO A PROBLEM OR
SOLUTION INVITES THE FURTHER INTRODUCTION OF
ARBITRARIES INTO PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS.
LOGIC 16. AN ABSTRACT POSTULATE MUST BE COMPARED TO THE
UNIVERSE TO WHICH IT APPLIES AND BROUGHT INTO THE
CATEGORY OF THINGS WHICH CAN BE SENSED, MEASURED OR
EXPERIENCED IN THAT UNIVERSE BEFORE SUCH POSTULATE
CAN BE CONSIDERED WORKABLE.
LOGIC 17. THOSE FIELDS WHICH MOST DEPEND UPON AUTHORITATIVE
OPINION FOR THEIR DATA LEAST CONTAIN KNOWN NATURAL
LAW.
LOGIC 18. A POSTULATE IS AS VALUABLE AS IT IS WORKABLE,
LOGIC 19. THE WORKABILITY OF A POSTULATE IS ESTABLISHED BY THE
DEGREE TO WHICH IT EXPLAINS EXISTING PHENOMENA
ALREADY KNOWN, BY THE DEGREE THAT IT PREDICTS NEW
PHENOMENA WHICH WHEN LOOKED FOR WILL BE FOUND TO
EXIST, AND BY THE DEGREE THAT IT DOES NOT REQUIRE THAT.PHENOMENA WHICH DO NOT EXIST IN FACT BE CALLED INTO
EXlSTENCE FOR ITS EXPLANATION.
LOGIC 20. A SCIENCE MAY BE CONSIDERED TO BE A LARGE BODY OF
ALIGNED DATA WHICH HAS SIMILARITY IN APPLICATION AND
WHICH HAS BEEN DEDUCED OR INDUCED FROM BASIC
POSTULATES.
LOGIC 21. MATHEMATICS ARE METHODS OF POSTULATING OR
RESOLVING REAL OR ABSTRACT DATA IN ANY UNIVERSE AND
INTEGRATING BY SYMBOLIZATION OF DATA, POSTULATES AND
RESOLUTIONS.
LOGIC 22. THE HUMAN MIND* IS AN OBSERVER, POSTULATOR, CREATOR
AND STORAGE PLACE OF KNOWLEDGE.
LOGIC 23. THE HUMAN MIND IS A SERVOMECHANISM TO ANY
MATHEMATICS EVOLVED OR EMPLOYED BY THE HUMAN MIND.
* The human mind by definition includes the awareness unit of the living
organism, the observer, the computer of data, the spirit the memory storage,
the life force and the individual motivator of the living organisms. It is used
as distinct from the brain which can be considered to be motivated by the
mind.
NOTE: The primary step in resolving the broad activities of man could be
considered to be the resolving of the activities of the mind itself. Hence, the
logics carry to this point and then proceed as axioms concerning the human
mind, such axioms being substantiated as relative truths by much newly
discovered phenomena. The ensuing axioms, from Logic 24, apply no less
to the various ‘‘ologies” than they do to de- aberrating or improving the
operation of the mind. It should not be thought that the following axioms are
devoted to the construction of anything as limited as a therapy, which is
only incidental to the resolution of human aberration and such things as
psychosomatic illnesses. These axioms are capable of such solution as has
been demonstrated, but such a narrow application would indicate a very
narrow scope of view.
POSTULATE - THE HUMAN MIND AND INVENTIONS OF THE HUMAN MlND ARE
CAPABLE OF RESOLVING ANY AND ALL PROBLEMS WHlCH CAN
BE SENSED, MEASURED OR EXPERIENCED DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY.
COROLLARY - THE HUMAN MIND IS CAPABLE OF RESOLVING THE PROBLEM
OF THE HUMAN MIND.
The borderline of solution of this science lies between WHY life is
surviving and HOW life is surviving. It is possible to resolve HOW life is
surviving without resolving WHY life is surviving.
LOGIC 24. THE RESOLUTION OF THE PHILOSOPHICAL, SCIENTIFIC AND
HUMAN STUDIES (SUCH AS ECONOMICS, POLITICS,
SOCIOLOGY, MEDICINE, CRIMINOLOGY, ETC. ) DEPENDS
PRIMARILY UPON THE RESOLUTION OF THE PROBLEMS OF THE
HUMAN MIND..
