Scientology Philosophy in "A New Slant on Life"

"Who are you anyway? Where do you come from? What will happen to you? Are you a product of the mud as you have been told, to exist for a few years and then wither away and fertilize the earth from which they said you came? Or are you something better, something finer?"

That is the beginning of the book Scientology: A New Slant on Life. It's a great read and every chapter (most of them no more than a page of two long) contains something you can take and use. I doubt there's a person alive today who has everything in their life together. People have conflicts, upsets, disappointments, they fail, they lose, they make mistakes. Aren't we all looking for a way to fix these things and do better by ourselves and each other? I like to think so. and that 's what this book contains—a way to accomplish those aims.

Thought I'd share one of the favorite LRH poems:


SHINING WINDOWS


Shining windows
In
The sun
Tall,
Tall buildings
Staring.

Sell
And buy
And
Sell
And buy.

Monuments
Those buildings.
Eyes
Those windows
Watching.

Prisons, too,
Have
Windows

Scientology Basics

One of the best things I've ever done has been reading the basic books and Scientology and Dianetics and listening to the lectures that go along with them. I have learned more over the past couple of years since beginning this study than in anything I've done in Scientology in the past.

Highly recommended!

You can find out more about this project on the Scientology web site where the speech by David Miscavige is presented in full. He released the project in 2007.
