You know more about it then me obviously. Seems it has morphed since that book. I did start reading some stuff on their website about Clear. I don't want to waste my time. I didn't go for the philosophy in Dianetics so that ended it for me.

I am open minded though. I did Course in Miracles for two years practicing the lessons everyday and going to study groups. I didn't get much in the way of results but a lot of the philosophy or "revelation" I agree with.

I used to read Joel Goldsmith who is a christian science writer and I like it even though I don't agree with the philosophy. I guess parts of it I do.

I have read lots and lots of books....searching. Eastern philosophy and Buddhism sit well with me but it has dogma and ritual too. I would have to say my beliefs are an amalgam of things. There are parallels. Joseph Cambell, Carl Jung, Emmet Fox, Conversations with God- Neal Donald Walch, Thich Nhat Hanh, Eknath Easwaran.....you name it.

I agree that discouraging people from medication and western medicine is irresponsible. Course in Miracles didn't cure me of depression but it wasn't for lack of trying.
