In 1952, Ron arrived at a historic discovery. With demonstrable proofs, rather than mere belief, Ron established that there is indeed an immortal spirit with infinite survival power. These remarkable discoveries signified no less than the long-sought meeting ground of science and religion. And with that, thousands of years of belief in the field of religion materialized into an actuality which any individual can realize in the here and now. So was born a new religion, the world’s first wholly practical religion - Scientology.

Here is the story of how the Athenian statesman Pericles envisioned a better future for Mankind - a future free from tyranny. Thus developed a principle at the heart of modern civilization - that the individual has a right to participate in government. As new tyrannies emerge to threaten those rights, here is a crucial message for all times. Here also is Ron’s personal story of how he kept his discoveries about the human mind out of the harness of a modern tyranny. And, in consequence, how individuals today can achieve a level of personal freedom never before possible.

In Increasing Efficiency Ron reveals discoveries that provide a wholly new perspective on efficiency - not in a mechanical sense, but in terms of thought, emotion, and effort. Moreover, here is the explanation of why an address to thought is of paramount importance, in that thought alone can change emotion and effort. In full, then, contained within this lecture is the "secret" of efficiency and the very means of overcoming the vagaries of emotion and the effort of work.

Embracing a tradition from the very dawn of civilization, here is the history of Man’s relentless pursuit of the knowledge which inspired this planet’s great philosophies and religions. Against the backdrop of this epic drama, Ron reveals how Scientology represents an historic, long-sought triumph for Man. For with its discoveriesand technology comes the culmination of Man’s oldest quest and the accomplishment, in the here and now, of his most enduring dream - the freeing of the soul by wisdom.

When still a young man attending university, Ron urged faculty members of the psychology department to apply the principles of physics to the field of the mind. And when no one tookup the challenge - either then or in later years - Ron undertook the task himself. Unlocking a wealth of answers about human beings and their potentials, he did indeed resolve the long-standing riddle of the mind. With the discovery of its exact nature then came breakthrough after breakthrough, culminating in the first technology providing the means to greatly increased ability.

What is life? Life is a game. In this lecture, Ron explains why life is best understood by likening it to a game. For regardless of what, where, or how an individual plays the games of existence - and regardless of whether he consented to play - the rules of the game are always the same. And with everything Ron puts on the board, he provides a completely new understanding of all that comprises human behavior. Here, then, is not only the knowledge to play and win at a game of one’s own choosing, but how to help others play a better game too.

Money is, of course, something with which everyone is familiar. But few people are aware of the real purpose and function of money. Here Ron delineates its proper role in assisting the survival of individuals, groups and cultures. And what becomes clear is that money owes its unsavory reputation not to its use, but to its abuse. Once understood for what it is, money assumes its correct place as but one element - albeit an important one - contributing to survival. Here, then, is an entirely new look, demystifying a subject and commodity that everyone depends upon.

Using the most exact tools of thought to isolate the most inexactly understood aspect of a human being, Ron established that there is, indeed, a soul. Moreover, the knowledge of its nature and characteristics finally resolves the age-old question of good and evil, not only in regard to a future life, but with immediate application in the here and now. For with the answer to the greatest of all mysteries has come an entirely new understanding and, with that, the means to raise one’s ability to play the game called "life".

As mechanical technologies became ascendant, nothing parallel emerged to bring religion into the realm of day-to-day application. Thus, the arrival of Scientology means everything for both the individual and Mankind, for here is the first religion which, by application of an actual technology, provides anyone with workable answers he can use on a daily basis in his own life. By this technology, IQ rises, an individual’s power and ability increase, Man can recover his capacity for kindness and decency - and abrighter future is assured.

In interpreting the remarkable story of Man's search for, "the other fellow," Ron not only explains why Man’s epic search met with failure for so long, he reveals the missing element that has finally brought success and solved the mystery of "the other fellow." For today, one can indeed know the truth about one’s fellow human beings and, hence, come to understand oneself. And what that knowledge foretells for both the individual and Mankind is not only the recovery of respect, honor, and purpose, but a level of success that exceeds anything previously attainable.

For the first time in history, Man has come into possession of an "operation manual" that details the full anatomy of the mind and precisely how it functions. By studying this "manual", anyone can understand the underlying causes behind the endless variety of human behavior and use this knowledge to resolve any situation he encounters in life. Here, then, is the adventure of discovering the workings of the most valuable commodity any individual will ever possess.

How can a single individual control his own fate? How can he safeguard the well-being of his family, the prosperity of his group, and the security of his nation Should he endeavor by whatever means, through whatever plan, to secure the future for those he cherishes and the society in which he lives? Here is Ron’s unforgettable answer to such questions. What he reveals is a fundamental truth by which we can guarantee our future survival as individuals, groups, nations, and Mankind as a whole.

It has no mass or location. Yet it is alive. And it gives life. Such are the characteristics of "a life-giving unit" - the source all thought, and of all that is decent, ethical, and noble. Based on axioms as precise as any in science, it has been determined that the life-giving unit preceded matter, energy, space and time. Here are the infinite ways an individual endows his environment with life. From physical well-being to the state of civilization, these principles are in continuous operation. Understood and applied by a single individual, they lead to a far better life.

Realizing the answers to life were missing from both the deep spirituality of the East and the ways of Western academia, Ron embarked on a quest for a way to free the individual from the barriers to happiness. In recognizing that Man is both a spiritual and a material being, he arrived at the breakthrough discovery from which all else followed. What emerges is the monumental scope of an extraordinary victory - one that benefits all Mankind. Here is the record of that victory and the historic achievement of a state never before known in this universe - a state called Clear.

From his youth in a rough-and-tumble American West to his far-flung trek across a still-mysterious Asia; from his two-decade search for the essence of life to the triumph of Dianetics and Scientology - such is the story Ron recounts in a lecture so legendary, it has been heard by millions. How could one man discover the source of all human aberration and provide an actual technology by which man could rise to greater heights of honesty, decency, and personal freedom? The answer is here, in Ron’s personal account of his long journey to bring about a new state of being.

How does one increase a person’s confidence, and improve his ability to communicate with others? The answers all start with help. Indeed, help runs so deeply in human beings that even disabilities, accidents, criminality, and social disturbance can be understood within its frame of reference. A society that understands and applies the principles Ron delineates will accomplish a tremendous resurgence in the capabilities of its people, elevating the entire civilization. Here, are newly discovered and powerful truths with an almost unlimited potential for good.

After examining the whole of life in its variety and complexity, Ron isolated a common denominator to all living things - the Dynamic Principle of Existence: Survive! How, then, did survival apply to man and his everyday existence? By examining the full range and depth of his activities in the light of this new discovery, the infinitely diverse behavior of human beings all aligned and fell into place. As Ron discovered, the Dynamic Principle of Existence actually breaks down into no less than eight separate but interdependent urges toward survival.

In researching the field of education over three decades, Ron examined the entire learning process. What Ron identified are the exact obstacles that deny understanding of any subject, or more specifically, the barriers to study. With the new knowledge of how these barriers are the cause of failed education and its many consequences, Ron developed a fully workable solution - what has become known as Study Technology. Here, then, is the first actual technology of how to study any subject or field of endeavor and gain the ability to use and apply what has been learned.

The Second Dynamic, one's urge to survive for the sake of the family and the future generation, has long been a source of mystery and confusion. It is no minor breakthrough, then, to at last answer the question of how to achieve abundant survival in this crucial part of life. With this knowledge, anyone can discover what the Second Dynamic really is and understand its exact relationship to the rest of their life. And thus, whether as individuals, couples, or families, they can finally realize its full potential for happiness.
