1st Melbourne ACC: Responsibility and the State of OT Extension Course

Following a massive Congress at which he imparted a special message to Australian Scientologists on their unique responsibility for Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard rolled out something of even greater moment on the 1st Melbourne ACC. For with several routes mapped to Clear, he returned to that higher goal of Operating Thetan whose potentials he charted in The Philadelphia Doctorate Course and Scientology 8‑8008. Drawing on subsequent discoveries, he had not only uncovered the primary obstacle to OT attainment—indeed, to any case gain—but had shattered that barrier with the technology of Overts and Withholds, enabling any being to achieve the central component in case progress—Responsibility. From the road to OT and how it depends on the shifting of valences, to the anatomy and handling of individuation, and from the relationship between withholds and an apparency of “no bank,” to the universe of a thetan, here is the technology that opened the gates to ascending levels of spiritual freedom and, ultimately, OT itself. As to what these discoveries foretold, Mr. Hubbard declared, “With the 1st Melbourne ACC, we begin a new era in Scientology—greater, broader and more successful than anything we have experienced before.”
