abbreviation for
Operating Thetan: a being "at
cause over
matter,
energy,
space,
time,
form and
life."
Operating comes from "able to operate without dependency on things," and
thetan is the Greek letter
theta (
q ), which the Greeks used to represent
thought or perhaps
spirit, to which an
n is added to make a
noun in the modern
style used to
create words in
engineering. It is also
q n or "
theta to the nth degree," meaning unlimited or
vast.
