This post is to address some common misconceptions held by never ins , press , Scientologists and often even exes and critics . Specifically regarding the OT III story and influences that extend all through Scientology.
I personally find the more I look at Scientology materials closely ( and listen to advice on this from Jon Atack and Arnie Lerma on where to look ) the more I ALWAYS find the same exact conclusion and concur with them on this issue : ALL Dianetics and Scientology materials are actually plagiarized and repackaged from other - usually earlier- sources that are not credited .They go through the same process over and over of getting altered for concealing where they came from . I call it filing off the serial numbers - change them just enough to make them look slightly different . Later Hubbard stressed making them fit and support all the framework and lies his sci fi spiritual mish-mosh was built on but primarily he stressed hiding that he was not actually the source of anything . He called himself source as a countermeasure against discovery - it is one of the first things a Scientologist must accept about him and the subject to be accepted by the cult .
A case in point is how many see the OT III story and think Hubbard made it up while drunk and addicted to drugs and it and he are insane . Well that is almost right except for one part that becomes more significant the more you understand it .
He stole OT III entirely from other sources - even the auditing and the name Xemu and the spaceships transporting evil spirits to Earth and binding them in clusters to humans which require exorcism - ALL of it .People often focus on how silly the story seems to grown ups . Yeah , it is bizarre bullshit and to my mind- like all the content of Dianetics and Scientology -100% false and Hubbard always knew he was lying about it .
The thing I want to get folks to look at is that it is not his idea , not even a little bit and he stole it from several sources and combined them to make this insane cult doctrine and the procedure to handle the BTs ( Body Thetans you exorcise in OT III and above they, are alien spirits from 75 million years ago flown to Earth in spaceships and blown up with H-bombs in volcanoes then implanted and stuck in people to drive us crazy in Scientology doctrine - hey I did not write it and do not believe it ).
He stole almost all of this from Oahspe an insane cult text from an earlier cult that has been described as a mind control cult ...this is feeling familiar somehow... anyway this insane cult text has many elements in common with OT III and in fact upon close examination ( good luck it is truly bizarre and jarring mentally to read - and I spent thousands of hours getting indoctrinated in Hubbard's cult doctrine so..if I feel that way most people will find this stuff incomprehensible as it is ).
I am going to try to very briefly use a small sampling of quotes to show this but to really objectively determine it I recommend one learn the content of Ot III and the other OT levels and how the auditing is done ( if you do not already know it well ) and then read Oahspe or at least some descriptions of it and key sections and quotes on your own to independently decide if I am right , part right or dead wrong for yourself .
Oahspe: A New Bible
is a book published in 1882, purporting to contain "new revelations"
from "...the Embassadors of the angel hosts of heaven prepared and
revealed unto man in the name of Jehovih..." It was produced by an American dentist,
John Ballou Newbrough (1828–1891), who reported it to have been written by
automatic writing, making it one of a number of 19th-century
spiritualist works attributed to that practice. Oahspe defines adherents of the disciplines expounded in
Oahspe as "Faithists".
Oahspe comprises a series of related interior books chronicling
earth and its heavenly administrations, as well as setting forth
teachings for modern times. Included are over 100 drawings.The title page of
Oahspe describes its contents with these words:
A New Bible in the Words of Jehovih and His Angel Ambassadors. A
Sacred History of the Dominions of the Higher and Lower Heavens on the
Earth for the Past Twenty-Four Thousand Years together with a Synopsis
of the Cosmogony of the Universe; the Creation of Planets; the Creation
of Man; the Unseen Worlds; the Labor and Glory of Gods and Goddesses in
the Etherean Heavens; with the New Commandments of Jehovih to Man of the
Present Day.
"Jehovih", "The Great Spirit", "Ormazd", "Egoquim", "Agoquim",
"Eloih", "The I Am", "Jehovah" and other names are used throughout
Oahspe as the name of the Creator.
According to Oahspe: the Creator is both masculine and feminine. Om
is one of the names used to refer to the feminine (mother) aspect. Other
references include, "The All Person", "The unseen" and "The
Everpresent", "The All Light", "The Highest Light". God and Lord are
titles of office for a person in the spirit realm who began life as
mortal/in corporeal form (spirit within a body). The Creator is all and
was all and forever will be all; He/She was never born and is beyond all
Gods. The Creator is our father and mother, and all that are and were
born are our brothers and sisters.
The
Oahspe has been stated as being the first known reference to the term "starship".
Basic teachings
Oahspe emphasized service to others; each person is graded according to service to others.
Each individual, group and nation is either in ascension or descension;
sooner or later, all ascend, rising in grade. The higher one's grade,
the better are the conditions within one's own soul, and the better the
place awaiting one in heaven.
According to
Oahspe, when mortals die their spirits continue
to live, regardless of who they worshiped, or even whether they
disbelieved in an afterlife.The spirit realm becomes their new home, which is called heaven, and
the individual spirit is called an angel. There are unorganized heavens
close to or on the earth. Also starting there - and linking to the
highest heavens - are the organized heavens. Both types of heavens are
accessible to mortals. If a portion of heaven lives in a state of chaos
and delights in evil, that portion is called hell.
An angel must subsist for a season after death somewhere along a
continuum of delightful to abysmally wretched conditions. The heavenly
place where angels initially live is determined by what their habits
were as mortals; as well as by their aspirations and diet.
Selfish behavior, low thoughts, or eating animal derived food will
place a newborn angel in the lowest level, being on the earth. Evil
oriented persons enter heaven into hellish conditions. Nevertheless, all
in descension eventually turn around and ascend upward to more
delightful places within an organized heaven, whose chief is called God.
God is an advanced angel ordained into office for a season.
The morphologically plural name
Elohim, often translated as god-singular in the Old Testament, is not used to mean the Creator throughout the main body of
Oahspe; the singular Hebrew terms "Jehovih" (SHD 3069) and "Eloih" are used instead.
Arrangement of Oahspe
According to
Oahspe, the history of humankind is marked by a
series of progressions. These lessons come in cycles: advancement
followed by recession, being in turn succeeded by other cycles of
improvement and regression. Cycles exist within cycles, but one
important cycle, used in improving the grade of humanity, is a 3000 year
cycle (average), and it is this cycle around which the books in Oahspe
are organized.
The first few books of
Oahspe lay the groundwork for
understanding the nature of the work. This merges into a concise history
taking the reader up to the present time, the new era. Separate from
the history books are a series of books intended to illume for the
reader the requirements of humanity for this day and age.
An interesting graphological characteristic of Oahspe is that a
number of its sub-books are printed on pages divided in two, top to
bottom. In these, the top half of the page contains a narrative of
celestial events, while the bottom half describes the corresponding
events on Earth.
Cycles
The text describes cyclical events that occur within a range of greater and smaller cycles. For instance, according to
Oahspe,
the earth is traveling with the sun and its planets through regions of
space in a large circuit of 4,700,000 years, which is divided into
sections of 3,000 years average, which also occur within larger cycles
of 24,000 years and 72,000 years, and so on. Each of these regions has
variations in density and other qualities, and so, engender varying
conditions that the Earth encounters. Also, explanation is given as to
the rise and fall of civilizations.
above quotes From Wikipedia
The Real Wall of Fire
I doubt even that Hubbard's purportedly death-defying 'discovery' of the secret OT
Level III, "The Wall of Fire" was even an original idea, much less discovered as
part of any research of any kind. You will find in the 1882 edition of OAHSPE "A
Sacred History of the Dominions of the Higher and Lower Heavens on Earth" there is a
reference to "druijas" the term used for spirit entities, being gathered up from
all over the galaxy, packaged in 'vessels' and transported in 'winged space ships' to
earth by the billions. This is called, in this book, "The Wall of Fire". The
identical name, for an almost identical story line, that Hubbard sells you as Operating
Thetan Section Three. It is also amusing to note that Dianetics, Hubbard refers to
"automatic writing", and it just so happens that this same book OAHSPE, is
claimed to have been written by "automatic writing". From Lermanet.com
Now to quotes from Oahspe itself .
And the star of Fiatisi's etherean ship was stationed near
the earth, that she might the
better behold the deliverance of the spirits that were to be
freed by the submersion of the
land of Wagga; and of these spirits there were upward of
twenty-four billion four hundred
millions, of whom more than three billion were fetals and
familiars and spirits in chaos. ( this is the basis for the millions and billions of Bts aka Drujas and has spaceships in it as well like OT III )
Now will I carry away their heaven and earth, and they
shall be seen no more forever. But the drujas and fetals shall be carried to Hautuon and cast
into walls of fire. And they
shall be divided up into groups; kin shall be torn away from
kin, and friend from friend,
and mother from daughter, and father from son; for they are
become as absorbents,
sucking one another continually. (this establishes the term wall of fire famous throughout Scientology and that the BTs are abhorrent or very messed up spirits )
And the walls of fire shall go up around them without
ceasing, and they shall not
escape. And they that guard them shall keep them from one
another, that they shall do no
evil. Neither shall they sleep nor rest, but be stirred up and
made to know that they are
alive, and can exist independent of fetal (sucking). ( this shows the wall of fire as eternal unceasing imprisonment without relief )
What more is the earth (Pan) to these spirits of evil and
darkness? What more is their
first heaven than a place of perpetual devouring? Have they
not made it a place of
everlasting destruction? They visit their evils upon mortals;
the young child cannot
escape them, nor the middle-aged, nor the old man nor old
woman. ( this shows we are all supposed to be subject to them regardless of if we are young or old , good or bad )
And the star of Fiatisi's etherean ship was stationed near
the earth, that she might the
better behold the deliverance of the spirits that were to be
freed by the submersion of the
land of Wagga; and of these spirits there were upward of
twenty-four billion four hundred
millions, of whom more than three billion were fetals and
familiars and spirits in chaos. ( this has a spaceship near earth from somewhere else earlier and many Bts - just like in OT III )
On Drujas
JEHOVIH had said: All angels below the first resurrection, save
infants, shall be known in heaven and on earth as drujas, for they are
such as have not capacity in knowledge or strength of individuality.
2. As there are on earth paupers and vagrants and beggars and
criminals who are druks, so are there, in hada, spirits that are a great
trial to both mortals and angels.
3. And they inhabit mortals and the houses that mortals dwell in.
Some mortals have one or two of them; some a score; and some have
hundreds of them. Some of them continue to inhabit mortal dwellings long
after mortals have abandoned them, even till
they fall in ruins. And whoso cometh into such house, the drujas come upon him to live on him and with him.
( this is identical to the idea of many BTs being in and on one needing removal )
4. And if a mortal have greater wisdom and strength of soul than the
drujas, he ruleth over them, to a good purpose, reforming them and
raising them up out of darkness and helplessness.
( this relates to Hubbard's ideas on"higher tone" people not being subject to "demon circuits" as much as others in Dianetics and the raising up out of darkness is the auditing in the OT levels )
5. But if the drujas have greater power than the mortal, then they
pull him down in darkness, making of him a man to lust after the affairs
of earth. Sometimes they help man to riches and great power; and if he
have sons and daughters who are brought up in idleness and ease and
luxury, then the drujas fasten upon them, leading them in their own way,
of lust and debauchery, or hard-heartedness.
(this is the" dwindling spiral "idea and "contagion of abberation" too and back to the tone scale again )
On some occasion the drujas rule over their mortal, and his neighbors
call him mad, and they send him to a mad-house, which is to them a city
of delight. When mortals engage in war, slaying one another, the drujas
have great merriment, taking part, by inspiring the mortals into the
conflict
.( this goes to the idea that Bts are the cause of war and strife etc. all through human history )
Drujas rule over mortals more than mortals rule over them. It was
because of their abundance and their power to do evil, that Jehovih
commanded His chosen to marry amongst themselves; and to withdraw from
other peoples, and make themselves a separate and exclusive people, that
they might not be inhabited with drujas.
( this is an important part of Hubbard's con - he teaches starting with the "wog" doctrine and it escalates the further one goes in Scientology that Scientologists are more aware , sane and less evil than all others and by the time one joins the Sea Org they are taught they are the ONLY sane beings left on Earth ! Yep , a separate sane group of people to redeem the world via any means necessary )
When a mortal dieth, and he had dominion over his drujas, not only
his spirit will rise to the first resurrection, but his drujas also,
whereupon they are all delivered into light.
21. When a mortal dieth, and his drujas had dominion over him, then
his spirit becometh a druj also, and he becometh one with them,
fastening on whoso cometh in the way; but if it be in a house and no
mortal cometh, upon whom they can fasten, then they remain in that
house. And here they may remain a year or ten years or a hundred years,
in darkness, knowing
nothing, doing nothing, until other angels come and deliver them, which
is often no easy matter, requiring bodily force to carry them away
.( this is another key concept fundamental to all of Scientology - that spirits will degrade and become BTs without the OT levels and thus hold down other spirits in a group death spiral into blindness , amnesia , pain and eternal damnation and oblivion that is inescapable if Scientology does not clear earth NOW )
Jehovih gave certain signs unto both angels and mortals, whereby it
shall be known both on earth and in heaven which is master over the
other, a mortal or his drujas, and, consequently, such matter
determineth to what place the spirit of a man will most readily fall
after death
If the mortal, on the other hand, shall have risen to control himself
over these habits and desires, then will he be indeed, at the time of
death, already entered into the first resurrection; and the drujas, if
he have any, will be delivered also.
( this is key to the idea that on OT III one may free BTs and redeem them to a state of higher freedom and sanity )
And whilst it is burning, and the drujas distracted with the show, the
angels of power come upon them and carry them off, hundreds of millions
of them. And the mortals are thus cleared of them that would have bound
them in darkness and death.
( here we have the term clearing which is used in both Dianetics and Scientology - I am certain Hubbard actually repackaged this and spread the occult ideas he got here and from Aleister Crowley ALL throughout Dianetics and Scientology covertly )
To accomplish the resurrection of the drujas dwelling with mortals on
the earth, had Lika, Son of Jehovih, appointed At'yesonitus, with his
twelve generals, very Gods in wisdom and power, each one to a certain
division of the earth.
Gessica had the vessels constructed with walls of fire around the
margins, to prevent the drujas escaping. And there were built in all
four hundred vessels, each capable of carrying
one hundred million drujas.
( here these alien spirits are captured and placed in space ships with the walls of fire to imprison them and they get transported to Earth and bound invisibly to all the people of earth )
The manner of driving the drujas into them was by leaving part of
the fire-wall open, and by fire-brands in the ethereans' hands cutting
off sections of drujas from the hells. In this way the ethereans drove
the drujas into the vessels, whereupon the doorway in the wall of the
ship was closed. And then the workers of the ship put it under way and
carried them up to Hao-yusta, where the Gods and Goddesses received
them, placing the drujas in pens, walled with fire, where they could be
treated and restored to reason, after which they were to be liberated in
installments, according to their safety.
4. In the first year Gessica delivered from the hells of hada five thousand
million drujas; but in the second year he delivered thirty-five
thousand millions; and in the third year, sixteen thousand millions.
After this the work went slowly on, for the balance of the hells were
mostly in knots, some of them hundreds of millions. And these had to be
delivered individually, requiring great labor, and power, and wisdom,
and dexterity.
( here we have knots or clusters of BTs and the tremendous amounts of them stated to be on Earth described )
above quotes from Oahspe parenthetical remarks by myself
Next is some of Hubbard's repackaging of some of these ideas for his fraud ( still false ideas but being sold as another brand by another man )
Now all of a sudden we take apart the composite theta body which is you, into its component theta bodies, and we take these apart as regard to the experience, and we find the potentiality of which a central theta line is capable.
…So you just make sure that you differentiate from entity to entity and try to get them unstuck off the track very neatly and nicely and get the theta being back in power.
…If you have a psychotic entity on your hands… you have to audit this entity…
Now, here you have, then, a simple problem of finding out where he is
stuck in the track, and in what kind of an incident he’s stuck.
First, what entity is stuck, when is he stuck, and run it out…
And one after another, you spot and straighten up these entities.
- HCL-21 ANATOMY OF THE THETA BODY 16 April 1952 Hubbard quotes
Hubbard — Saint Hill Special Briefing Course lecture
The Free Being 9 July 1963 –
Just a few trillion years ago the whole confounded place
was all blown up, the suns were disorganized, planets all thrown to hell
and everything else. Well, the little guys with the airplanes showed up
again, and they still could put up the theta traps for this boy . Hubbard quotes- they recast key elements in sci fi framework to fit the rest of Scientology
Next a quoted section about Qahspe from the publisher to help briefly describe it
demon spirits, engrafting
spirits who live on mortals, teaching re-incarnation;
spirit powers over mortals; chaotic spirits on
battle-fields; lost spirits in haunted houses;
obsessions, entrancement, spirit manifestations, how
to get them; how to determine what realm a spirit
belongs to, and who he is; how spirits deceive
mortals; how selfish spirits in the lower heavens
make slaves of their dupes after death and entrance
into heaven; how to acquire prophecy and seer-ship;
the delusion of the magnetic sleep; of spirit
control; how to know the nature of spiritual
communications; how mortals are graded by the Gods,
and their status known in heaven; how nations fall;
why cities are burnt down; how spirits can cast
pestilence and contagious diseases; how the offspring
of mortals are controlled; how any one may determine
into what realm of heaven he will enter after death;
how to determine the time of his bondage and of his
emancipation; how to determine the place in heaven
where a king or queen will go; where a rich man will
go; the length of the time of bondage of any of them
in the lower heavens; how any one may discover his
own grade, as to where he will go; how they work
themselves out of bondage in the lowest heavens; the
necessity of purifying ourselves in flesh and in
thoughts before we are companionable to pure angels;
rites and ceremonies; discipline and communities in
heaven; ships in the higher heavens that carry
thousands of millions of angels in the etherean seas,
and on excursions of thousands of years; the great
firmament, etherea, filled with thousands of millions
of etherean worlds, habitable within and without; the
labors of Gods and Goddesses; the insignificance of
our earth and its heavens, atmospherea; what is meant
by higher and lower heavens; how mortals can attain
to receive communications from the first
resurrection, from the second resurrection and from
the third, and even from Gods and Goddesses; what is
purification; how to purity one's self, in flesh, and
in spirit; how to know when a spirit communication is
from the second resurrection or from the first; how
to raise children;
( notably this has key ideas for Scientology often in differing original forms - BTs , being bonded to them , grades , BTs causing illness and misfortune , purification , working one's way up grades and differing levels of awareness, a heaven[ outer space ] full of populated worlds and many spaceships flying through there in the distant past , the insignificance of Earth and the OTs out in the universe making and controlling worlds, how to raise children , how to attain a higher spiritual state and escape a lower one - is this the basis for a lot of Scientology or am I off somehow ? )
quote from
The Publisher's Synopsis
of
Oahspe, The New Bible
Book of Es, Daughter of
Jehovih
Now a couple more quotes from Hubbard on his repackaged version of this to compare :
But listen, you’re living in a universe which is crawling with this
type of stuff. And planet Earth was a dumping ground to end all dumping
grounds. Actually, the end of OT III is when those BTs and clusters that are easily put into communication are gone. It’s not when all BTs in the whole universe that ever will be, are gone.
You’ve never had any pcs like that unless you’ve worked in an institution and have seen some inmate living in a totally lifeless state,
unaware of anything. NED for OTs handles this condition on BTs and
clusters which existed without being suspected except for the occasional
clue of a strange picture or a wild somatic.
- L. Ron Hubbard, HCO BULLETIN OF 15 SEPTEMBER 1978, ISSUE I, NED for OTs Series 1, NED FOR OTs RD THEORY OF, p2 section MENTAL TRANSMISSION
Now this is the real story of Ot III and Scientology - plagiarized cult ideas that were used in an earlier mind control cult to delude and abuse followers . That is where Hubbard's "science" and "religion " come from - they are fakes no science no religion ever .
It is a CULT made from earlier cult doctrine with some pseudoscience mixed in to fool modern audiences and mind control from hypnotism , the occult , psychology and other sources like Hitler and plagiarized rhetorical methods and sublime writing to entice and enthrall victims .
The idea to get is not that OT III and other ideas in Scientology are silly or weird - they are stolen and calculated to function as they have in earlier practices - to confuse then control people into becoming slaves covertly . Some ideas were less insidious in their original form but all become pernicious in Hubbard's twisted combination to enslave and abuse . And I have yet to find one that produces any of the miracles or enlightenment Scientology claims . And I was in for 25 years and have known hundreds of Scientologists and met probably thousands .
So please help get out the word Scientology is not weird ideas Hubbard pulled out of his ass that suckers fell for . It is entirely ideas that persuaded people in the past that have been taken and combined intentionally to persuade them now . It is not true and Hubbard never sought or found truth with it - he always sought a way to covertly confuse then control THAT is what Scientology is .
Furthermore , If you look at Crowley and Hitler's doctrine and practices and know Scientology well you can see he used their ideas from the beginning to the very end consistently . Not exactly the role models I want to base my life around - that is why he had to hide them . I invite and encourage all exes and indies and Scientologists to consider these ideas and look more at these two for further proof - or lack thereof .

I have reached nearly two hundred posts online and thousands of comments as well. In looking back at all that I realized a very small number of posts have been consistently the most viewed and likely most helpful for people seeking to understand Scientology.
I certainly hope they are helping people. Here I will try to present the short list of the posts that best explain my ideas and can introduce you to information that I hope will help begin beneficial examination of Scientology.

These twenty posts have been both popular and give a very good grounding in many of my ideas on Scientology
