The purpose of this message is to give you a sample of the true data from the book 'What is Scientology?' and show you where you can look to get the full contents of this book. ------------- The main thing that has really impressed me about Scientology is that there is the most brilliant tech for anything and everything in your life. I've become a more powerful individual with increased abilities. I never even conceived that I could experience these kinds of gains prior to Scientology. There is a way to handle every part of life with Scientology, and a way to exist that is far beyond any dream that you could ever dream. All of my dreams keep becoming realities and that's very exciting! Through Scientology, things happen a lot quicker. What used to take weeks or months sometimes happens in days or even minutes! Life is at my fingertips and with Scientology I've found I can have or be whatever I want. Kelly Preston Actress In January of 1975 I was working on my first film in Durango, Mexico. There I met an actress who gave me the book DIANETICS. During the five weeks we were filming she gave me some auditing sessions and applied some basic principles. That was when I became involved in Dianetics-because it worked. When I returned to the United States I began Scientology training and auditing. My career immediately took off and I landed a lead role on the TV show "Welcome Back Kotter" and had a string of successful films. I have been a successful actor for 17 years and Scientology has played a major role in that success. I have a wonderful child and a great marriage because I apply L. Ron Hubbard's technology to this area of my life. As a Scientologist I have the technology to handle life's problems and I have used this to help others in life as well. I would say that Scientology put me into the big time. John Travolta Actor The single greatest thing that studying Scientology has done for me is that it's helped me become freer. Freer to create life as I want to, without being thrown off from my objectives. One of the first simple successes was that I learned to handle and remove my own self-imposed barriers and restraints. Through further study, my ability to handle life around me also increased. This freedom has been hard won, but the rewards are great. My study of Scientology has also enabled me to write more music. I have become quicker and am able to use all of the musical abilities that I already have. I gained a new understanding of what the proper importances are in the process of creating music. Scientology has helped me to live better. Using the basic principles of Scientology has become a natural way of life for me. From Scientology I've gotten a freedom to learn whatever I want to learn in life and I'm gaining new abilities all the time. Chick Corea Eight-Time Grammy Award Winning Jazz Musician & Composer I sought out other solutions, I tried other philosophies and never found one that really indicated the truth to me. Scientology presented precepts to me that really made me feel like I had found, at last, the guidelines that I had been searching for. Before Scientology I had one dream of making a living, doing voice- overs for animation. After I became a Scientologist my abilities have expanded so far and above what I originally dreamed for myself that I've amazed even myself at my enormous increase of abilities. I've gotten an Emmy, a platinum and a gold album. I've written and starred in a one-woman show and I have a bright future as a producer. I've got two beautiful children, an incredibly supportive husband, a staff working with me for the same products, future dreams and goals and ALL of this is because I became a Scientologist. Nancy Cartwright Actress/Writer/Producer & Voice of Bart Simpson Scientology makes people free, sane and able. It makes it possible to be more oneself, with the ability to create and change anything being a natural and expected phenomenon. It puts you at cause over your life and makes it easy for you to take responsibility not only for your own life, but for the world. Scientology is sanity and if people who aren't in Scientology knew just how sane their lives could be, they would run to find out about it. Anne Archer Actress Scientology has enabled me to see clearly what my goals in life are. Before I became a Scientologist I was a professional race car driver but quit. I got involved with Dianetics and Scientology and through my studies and auditing I was able to rekindle my purpose in life and return to my profession. My capabilities increased and I became more certain. As a result, I won the 24 hours of Le Mans. Without Scientology I would never have accomplished this nor found the happiness I now have in life.
