What is Scientology has a glossary with loads of Scientology terms. Here are a few:
aberration: a departure from rational thought or behavior. It means basically to err, to make mistakes, or more specifically to have fixed ideas which are not true. The word is also used in its scientific sense. It means departure from a straight line. If a line should go from A to B, then if it is aberrated it would go from A to some other point, to some other point, to some other point, to some other point, to some other point, and finally arrive at B. Taken in this sense, it would also mean the lack of straightness or to see crookedly as, for example, a man sees a horse but thinks he sees an elephant. Aberrated conduct would be wrong conduct, or conduct not supported by reason. When a person has engrams, these tend to deflect what would be his normal ability to perceive truth and bring about an aberrated view of situations which then would cause an aberrated reaction to them. Aberration is opposed to sanity, which would be its opposite. From the Latin, aberrare, to wander from; Latin, ab, away, errare, to wander.
analytical mind: that part of the mind which one consciously uses and is aware of. It is the portion of the mind which thinks, observes data, remembers it and resolves problems.
reactive mind: that part of the mind which works on a totally stimulus-response basis, which is not under a person’s volitional control, and which exerts force and the power of command over his awareness, purposes, thoughts, body and actions.

"Being totally in present time gives me a new perspective of the world around me. I see things, hear sounds, taste, feel, notice so much more. It's like all of my perceptics have awakened -especially to others. My ability to communicate and my awareness of their tone level has greatly improved. They were tough but worth every minute of it! Thanks, David!" GDR

Hi Everybody-
"Books Make Booms" Executive Directive 25 July 1974
The Boulder Mission book selling team just wrapped up a weekend at the Boulder Hometown Fair, selling books and doing stress tests. Dan Pino, Steve Marshall, Steve Lassman, and Robert Anderson regularly go out on the Pearl Street Mall to show people what help is available. Brisk book sales on the street plus the release of the new BASICS have sent the Mission's Gross Book Sales into a whole new range of affluence.
Mission Holder Robert Anderson says:
"Right now the Mission is very involved in getting each and everyone their BASICS. This is the most important program the Mission is doing at this time as it has the potential for the biggest expansion ever.
In the recent weeks since the release the Mission has had its highest ever book sales and, in fact, the range of sales remains at a very high level.
We will shortly be delivering the new BASICS courses and our next plan is to have everyone on course that we can. As I said before, this program will make the biggest difference in expansion not only internationally but locally as well.
Since the start of these book sales we already have 4 people who have called or walked in and are now starting on course. If you don't have your BASICS, you should. And get on course so you can have this data to use in your life. It will make a world of difference."

VMs needed in Peru:
From the Peruvian VM I/C:
We are organizing the town to restore its basic functions and activities. This is done with LRH admin tech, assists, group processing, organizing of distribution of food and tents for people to live in, and hundreds of other actions.
Additionally to that, we are training 20 local people as VMs that will be the VM Group that will stay in Peru after we leave so that they can disseminate LRH tech and reach the rest of the country. Your contribution will make a difference. We need to cover a lot of logistics, from bringing in VMs from all over the world to providing their food, housing, transportation, etc.
This is our chance to give Scientology a solid foundation in this country! Again, your help is needed.

His purpose is to see that the technology is standardly applied for the greatest possible benefit for the preclear.
