Trom (The Resolution of Mind)

The following is NOT standard TROM nor is it standard Scientology.  It's not standard anything, actually.  Rather, it's just a record of my ongoing case study.

After re-doing level three with the expanded commands (see my post "Resolving Level Three" ) I started doing Self Analysis.  I am well into the lists now, just finishing the list on "sound".

I LOVE doing it.  It's a nice break from handling all these charged incidents to now run pleasure moments.  Validate the positive rather than try to get rid of the negative.

My THEORY is this-- I don't think TROM is necessarily a substitute for Scientology.  I think it complements it well.  I think it handles things Scn doesn't and vice versa.

I like having both subjects at my disposal.

Thanks for responding!

The 2 main things that make TROM special are:

1) The ability to handle your case solo-- and in a way that's more advanced than Self Analysis or Handbook for Preclears (though the two books are nothing to sneeze at)
2) Dennis solved the flaw in Goals processing by running opposing postulates correctly rather than running identities.

I am back on level five now and have been for at least a few weeks.  I STILL do Self Analysis, but only a page of it after my TROM session is over.

The Self Analysis REALLY helps stabilize me mentally after a session is over, because sometimes I just can't get enough RI done to stop myself from pulling in significances.  The Self Analysis really brings my havingness up.

I am sure the Church would scream if they knew I was using one of their sacred texts in that manner.  I think if Dennis were alive today, I could at least have an intelligent discussion with him about it.

Don't consider it as critique or evaluation but more like an opinion:
From my point of view it looks like you are wavering from the course charted by DHS.
If you consider his technology to be complete and self sufficient one and feel the lack of importancies then you just do more ROI.
If you hold an opinion that ROI just can't supply you with enough importancies then you start squirelling.
