1. the principle on which the
org board was originally conceived. It is that of
thetan-
mind-
body-
product. If there is a
thetan, a
mind (
organization potential not a harmful
mass) can be
set up,, a
mind which will organize a
body which will
produce a
product. If any one of these
elements (
thetan-
mind-
body-
product) is missing then an
organization will fail. The
mind must operate to
form a
body. This
body is the
MEST (
matter energy space and
time) and
staff or the
organization. This
body must
produce a
product. This in the
HGC, for instance, is resolved
cases. (

org board used by the
Dianetic Counseling Group is philosophically based upon the most
workable pattern that exists at present.
Man is
set up as
follows. First there is the
thetan (
spirit, he himself) which is the
source point of ideas and
purposes. Then there is the
mind, which can be likened to the
data collection center and
file. Then the
body, which moves in the
physical universe and creates effects
initiated by the
thetan, thereby creating a
product. Thus the
thetan conceives of an idea, the
mind is referred to for
data and to relate the idea to the
environment which the person is
operating in, and then the
body is directed to put the idea into
effect and there is a resultant
product which can be viewed and corrected or not by the
thetan. Thus we have a pattern.
thetan mindbodyproduct with the
product matching the original idea of the
thetan.
