"But what do you mean, 'True to yourself'? Actually, you are not being true to yourself; you are being true to your basic purpose. If you are not true to your basic purpose, you have had it. And that is what gives a fellow bank."

—L. Ron Hubbard

s a fitting finale to the Scientology Congresses, Ron's last came right from the topmost level. It was the breakthrough that would lead to the development of the Clearing Course, the Grade Chart and the Organizing Board. It was a discovery that embracive, that basic—because it is Basic Purpose. As Ron reveals, "Every engram we have explored, every piece of black mass, every ridge, every white-burning fire, every everything that went on in the mind comes about because of a change or alteration in a person's Basic Purpose." And that's just the beginning of what Ron discovered, for when you hear his lecture, Basic Purpose, you'll have a whole new understanding of what "Know Thyself" really means. Yet beyond all this discovery was generating, in terms of faster clearing in greater numbers, there's another reason this was called the Clearing Success Congress. For if you've ever wondered how it all fits together—the technology, the organizations, the combined force of Scientologists, the answers are all here.
