If you wouldn't mind, I'd appreciate it if you went over this. I agree with your assessment that ruds tend to get poorly handled.
Handle it? How? Is it just a matter of looking at what is there? Or are there specific steps to the erasure of the force, charge and mass that you are referring to?
Here we go.
In the rote processing procedures of the cult (and possibly in the FZ, but I would imagine it is more relaxed there) the purpose of ruds is to
KEY OUT whatever is sitting in the way of the auditor carrying out the procedure determined by the C/S.
This does not handle anything, merely to push it away (until the next time it
KEYS IN again).
When I start a session I say START OF SESSION.
Then I ask HAS THE SESSION STARTED FOR YOU ?
Next, I ask WHAT GOALS WOULD YOU LIKE TO SET FOR THIS SESSION ?
Get them noted down.
Next question is WHAT GOALS WOULD YOU LIKE TO SET FOR LIFE ?
Now we are ready to proceed, unless there is an out-rud sitting there. We handle this and then get that question answered.
The handling of the ruds is just like any other processing action; process the person in front of you and handle what comes up.
ARC BREAK
Typically, when a Scn auditor asks "Do you have an ARC Break," (consulting the meter) if it reads, they say what is it.
Actually, you don't need a meter. You have the pc in front of you. If his face is up his arse, you know there is something sitting there. Also, I have seen "FN's" on a pc who is so charged up, they are looking for a sharp object to stab someone. Trust me, your pc is by far the best meter there is.
The pc says I had a fight with my mother (or some such thing).
An experienced auditor might well want more info; When was that, what happened?
Th pc describes what happened.
The auditor then asks "Was that a break in Affinity, A break in reality etc.
WRONG, WRONG, WRONG.
The auditor is assessing an
incident, NOT the ARC BREAK.
Per the cult definition, an ARC Break is a SUDDEN break in ARC. It does not happen gradually, it is SUDDEN. Something happened to cause the ARC to break.
So, find out more. At what point did the ARC break? It was there, then it wasn't.
The "upset with my mother" is not the ARC Break. Something happened during that incident (upset). What suddenly happened is the ARC Break.
Usually spotting it results in a realisation. "Oh, it was when I saw her pick up a bowl to throw at me".
NOW you can ask "At that moment in time, was there a ......".
You are
REPAIRING the break.
By dealing with the charge, force and mass, it erases. Now you can continue, unless, of course an earlier ARC Break comes to the surface. Deal with it the same way. You continue until whatever has been sitting ther has been erased and the pc is now fully in PT and is "in session".
PRESENT TIME PROBLEM
If you process a person over the top of a present time problem you will not make progress. Why? Because the guy is not in session. His attention is fixated elsewhere.
What does "in session" mean? It means being there willingly and has attention on their case.
So, what is a problem? According to Hubbard it is a force-counterforce etc.
It floats there in PT.
So how does a problem come into being.?
Well, you have to consider there is a problem in order for it to exist.
If you don't consider an opposing effort, force or intention to be a problem then is simply isn't.
What happens is that at one moment you were certain, now you are uncertain. You have become confused about it.
That is why behind every PTP there is a
prior confusion.
So, how did the guy get confused? In order to do so, they have shifted from cause to effect.
What caused them to switch? They became the effect of someone. As a result they became confused.
So, find out who that person was, the one who got them to become confused and thereby set up the PTP.
Now, WHY did they become the effect of that person?
Probably they had DONE or SAID something against them. Find out what it was, find out what problem they were trying to solve by doing it.
You will find that it all starts to fall away.
Again, this may well allow an earlier PTP to come to the surface.
What you are doing is handling charge, force & mass.
MISSED WITHOLDS
First of all, there is nothing wrong with a withold. You can have laudable ones; a partner's present. organising a surprise party etc.
The problem comes when someone ELSE does or says something that makes YOU think they might know.
The effect is to cause you to separate away from that person. You might find you become critical of them, natter about them and try and avoid being in the same space.
What has happened is that charge has been triggered by what you perceive to be a "nearly finding out".
The way to handle this is to determine what it was that you were witholding (this is not the charged aspect) and then find out whqt that other person did or said that made you think they knew.
Get exact place, time, allo details about that moment in time. This is confronting the charge and it will erase.
Again, it may allow an earlier MWH to surface. Repeat the same steps until the whole thing is handled.
As in all processing actions,
HANDLED is the key word. It means "terminatedly taken care of, dealt with fully" It does not meqn KEY it out.
In order to end a session after completing the processing, or taking the client to such a huge win, they are totally blown out, you ask
How have you progressed towards your goals in life?
Have you acheived your goal fore the session?
If anything comes up, deal with it.
Is it ok if we end session?
If yes, then say END OF SESSION
Lastly you say TELL ME I AM NO LONGER PROCESSING YOU.
I trust this gives the answers you were seeking.
