Now isn't this nice! Such a great description of Scientology and Dianetics from the Times of India:
"Dianetics is the science of the mind or Scientology: the word or outward form by which the inward thought is expressed and made known. Thus, Scientology means knowing about knowing.
"Scientology is a twentieth-century religion. It comprises a vast body of knowledge extending from certain fundamental truths, prime among those being: Man is a spiritual being endowed with abilities well beyond those he normally envisages. He is not only able to solve his own problems, accomplish his goals and gain lasting happiness, but also to achieve new states of awareness he may never have dreamed possible.
"In one form or another, all great religions have held the hope of spiritual freedom - a condition free of material limitations and misery. The question has always been, however, how does one reach such a state, particularly while still living amidst a frantic and often overwhelming society? Scientology offers a pathway to greater freedom. While the hope for such freedom is ancient, what Scientology is doing is new. The technologies with which it can bring about a new state of being in man are likewise new."
