   RI-24i  'Definition of "Potential Trouble Source" - IMPORTANT'



from Ambassador for Mankind


Message # RI-24i for Internet




Definition # 4 of 'PTS'
(out of a Series of definitions of 'PTS'):

('PTS' = an abbreviation for 'Potential Trouble Source')


A 'PTS' is someone who has
 UNknowingly and UNwillingly agreed with a Suppressive Person
  that he will not see certain things,
  that he will not put his attention on certain things,
  that he will not know, or disregard, certain data
   or a part of the truth.


For example,
 you give someone great Auditing-sessions,
  he has beautiful gains,
  he writes and talks enthusiastically about his
   abilities and well-being restored to him by you,
 and then, a week later,
  he comes to you and
  he wants to investigate you
   'whether you used Standard Tech', and
   'whether you did it only to manipulate him'.

He does not KNOW anymore about the great improvements he made
 by your giving him Auditing!


So, what's all this about??


You find out that his girlfriend
 has become afraid
  that he will discover how evil she is, and
  that he will therefore leave her.

The girlfriend IS a Suppressive Person, and
 she actually commands him, she manipulates him,
 she manipulates his attention without that he is aware of it.


I am sorry to tell you
 that that IS what Suppressive Persons do,
  and
 all the accusations
  against [the basic, workable parts of the technology of] Scientology
   are actually by [actual] Suppressive Persons
     who voice, who accuse Scientology[-Auditing to do]
      what they THEMSELVES do, and
      what Scientology[-Auditing] UN-does.



Now this is a very, very important datum:

  Suppressive Persons control, or manipulate,
    manipulate the attention of others.
  Suppressive Persons 'say':
    "DON'T look here, look there,
     DON'T look at this, look at that".


And these others don't know
 that they are the unknowing and unwilling effect
  of this action of the Suppressive Person.

They suddenly 'don't know anymore'
   who are their friends,
 they suddenly 'don't know anymore'
   what their friends did for them or can and will do for them.


It's a very, very strange phenomenon,
 but that's what it is.

It's a very, very upsetting thing to their friends
 (or at least I find it so).


In Scientology the phenomenon is called
 'being PTS to a Suppressive Person'
  [like 'PTS to L. Ron Hubbard']
    and
 the condition is indeed remedied,
  indeed resolves miraculously,
   when the manipulation, the control
    of the person's attention by the Suppressive,
      is detected and nullified,
      or is at least greatly diminished.

 Thereby the person becomes again
  UN-manipulated, and
  freely in control of his own attention,
  free in where to put his attention.



This is a very, very, very important definition.
