Warning: These materials are only to be read and used by students ready for the Level. To qualify you have to have attested Clear and done Advanced Level 2, Pre-OT Two. The student should also be a trained Solo-auditor.
Getting Through Pre-OT Three
To complete Advanced Level Three the Solo-auditor has to honestly do it. This is one of these silly basic truths that sometimes gets overlooked.
The better trained the Solo-auditor is, the more likely he or she is to do well. Better general Auditor training means better results in Solo, less need for reviews and more certainty on results and overcoming 'odd phenomena' encountered.
It all comes down to that what you are auditing on Pre-OT III is Thetans. It is not something else. The more certainty the Solo-auditor has in handling a Preclear, handling auditing comm cycle, rudiments, Auditors Code, correction lists and so on the more certain the Solo-auditor will be and the better the BTs or Clusters will respond.
Knowing the Procedures Cold
The Solo-auditor has to know the Pre-OT III procedures cold. This means formal study with a checksheet and pack to cover all the theory and drilling of the procedures of the level until fully competent at handling whatever
"impossible" situation can come up in session. A procedure such
as Date/Locate alone takes a full day of drilling on an average. The whole
Pre-OT III pack would be no less than a week's study full time. It has been
found that Solo-auditors that were about failing simply didn't know their basic
data. They tended to blame their lack of success on vile and ill intended BTs
and Clusters, but once they were crammed and drilled to a new level of technical
competence any such problems seemed to go away. The need for review sessions
went down in direct ratio to their competence as Solo-auditors.
Audit Every Day
Once started on the auditing the Solo-auditor has to make sure he assigns it
enough importance and exercise enough self discipline to audit every day. It can
be a long Level and causal sessions now and then is not going to do it. Any
auditing is best done intensively. If not, the Auditor will simply just cope
with out rudiments in life and never really get to handle his basic case. When
auditing Pre-OT III the Solo-auditor has to be tuned in to a different world and
develop a theta perception not part of daily life. He has to confront a part of
existence that was hidden for millions of years. It takes courage, determination
and hard work to honestly confront this Level and take the charge apart.
Audit under a Competent C/S
This Level and manual is not a 'do-it-yourself' self-help system. The Solo-auditor
has to be trained for the Level and has to be carefully prepared as a
case as well. Unless the Pre-OT has honestly completed Advanced Level Two and
any other case requirements he is not likely to succeed.
Even if so prepared it is important to do the Level under competent guidance. We are talking about phenomena and a technology that only a competent Case Supervisor can safely guide a student through. The Solo-auditor should communicate daily with his C/S and closely follow any guidelines and guidance issued by the C/S. If a review session is needed the student must do it. If the C/S insists on more study and drilling - again, follow the C/S instructions closely and religiously.
The student or Solo-auditor should not discuss
the materials or his case with anyone except authorized personnel, such as his Course Supervisor, Case Supervisor or director of processing. The materials are
unreal or restimulative to most people and there is no good reason to enter into
endless or pointless discussions about them with the uninformed. It leads to
invalidations and evaluations and is very counter-productive.
The Value of The Level
Level Three is a long and very valuable Grade. It determines whether or not the
Solo-auditor will eventually
make it to real OT.
The carelessness and casualness with which some Solo-auditors sometimes approach
the Level and some Solo-auditors willingness to run one or a few BTs and say "well the rest don't
bother me", is simply an indication of weakness or Treason in relation to
self, the First Dynamic.
There is no status value in having "no BTs on III" or in only finding a few or
a statement like "blew them all in earlier auditing". Any of this indicate a
Solo-auditor who is weak and cannot affect
others and who needs the handlings in relation to his training and general case
preparation.
Advanced Level Three is a vital Grade. One fronts up to it and does it. When he is really done, the rewards of OT III exceed his
wildest dreams.
When is the Level Complete
The short answer is, the Level is complete when there are no more BTs and
Clusters to audit. But really, today it is a decision the C/S has to have the
final word on. It is sometimes advised to end off the Level if it has been run
for a long time and just seems to go on and on. Advanced Level Three is an
effective way of handling BTs and Clusters but over the years it has become
clear that there are many more BTs and Clusters in the Pre-OTs space than just
those that respond to Incident Two and One. This was developed into a new set of
audited rundowns of Pre-OT Level Four and Five. It is therefore a C/S decision,
including taking into consideration the availability of Level Four and Five Auditors, when to end off Advanced Level Three and sending the Pre-OT on his
way.
