Speaker: In the mid west of the United States, I went to a conference where people would smile at even the through that British politicians are arch manipulators. If you want to hear about real hypnotic manipulation, just listen to them.
Paul Grosswald: At the time when I was going through these techniques, I didn't realized, I was being hypnotized because I had a preconceived notion in my mind that hypnosis involves somebody swinging a watch in front of your face and then putting you in to a deep sleep and making hypnotic suggestion to you, but none of that happened in scientology, there is no watch swinging, I never went in to a deep sleep, I was conscious of everything that was going on, I never lost memory of anything that happened. Basically, the way I looked at it was - all I was doing was very simple techniques that involved talking to another person. It never occurred to me that this could be a very subtle form of hypnosis.
Speaker: Members of the church of Scientology didn't take kindly to our questioning which is possibly why they jeered when I went with two former high ranking Scientologists to learn about their secret methods. She is about to demonstrate on me some of their secret techniques.
Speaker: Okay, funky twist your mouth, start.
Speaker: Only for the world people are being cooked through this right now by Scientology trainers.
Speaker: Okay, funky, give a big sigh.
Speaker: Okay, now what's actually occurring here as this happens is the control has started to go in where this one person standing to control your motions, your movements etcetera and your willingness to be controlled and you are going to finally have to be able to do this for two hours without a twitch, without a movement, without anything else.
Speaker: What am I aware of is when I stop my attention from moving and I totally focus upon you I begin to go into trance because my conscious mind is looking for movement that is being fixed and held.
Female Speaker: Now, we are going to do this dill until your term 40 is totally in.
Speaker: Okay, now this is done screaming so it's going to get a lot for -- lot for them.
Female Speaker: Okay, you are a student, Start.
Speaker: Stand up, sit down in that chair.
Female Speaker: Flunk, you fail to acknowledge; okay, start.
Speaker: Stand up, thank you; sit down in that chair, thank you; stand up, thank you; sit down in that chair, thank you.
Speaker: So Robert, what does this do for you? What does this technique actually achieve?
Robert: Well, the purpose of this is to give you the ability to direct your intention, to get something accomplished. Now you must have understand Scientology, there are over just two science in this world, you are learning to get something done. So when I say "Paul go over there" and I am just able to direct you because there is a lot of people who will say Paul could you sort of go there for a second, gives you that commanding presence.
Speaker: So it's like a military training kind of --
Speaker: Exactly
Speaker: Very much sir.
Speaker: Now, the other thing which is important and you know, however, is in Scientology, you must learn to be commanded. This is important because if the same time while you are learning intention without reservation, you must learn control, so I must be able to receive your control so when you tell me to go over there, I am willing. So you are learning to control people and you are learning to be controlled at the same time and that's how the mind control begins to take place.
