Tone Arm, a potentiometer on the E-meter that adjusts sensitivity. TA motion indicates "blowing charge", or success in auditing "therapy."

Technical Dictionary; the cult's wonderful study of semantics gone awry; complements the Admin Dictionary. Recommended reading. Hubbard recommends certain dictionaries in the Student Hat course, and gives several reasons why certain dictionaries are bad. His own dictionary fits snugly into his own definition of a bad dictionary. Sometimes called the Tech Dictionary,

A world-conspiracy that Hubbard was paranoid about; he was convinced this mysterious organization was responsible for coordinating attacks on Scientology, and that various mental health organizations were in cahoots with it, along with Nazis, drug companies, banks, Communists, spies, and, of course, psychiatrists. Compare Tanaka Memorial, 1927, a Japanese plan for world domination followed in aggression against China and later in WWII, named for prime minister general Tanaka, d. 1929. Hubbard seems to have misspelt and borrowed his paranoid delusion, just like many other things in his life! (Dianetics from dianoetic; Scientology from Scientologie, etc.)

1. It is a person who operates exterior to a body without need of a body.
2. That state wherein the preclear can remain with certainty outside his body when the body is hurt.
3. A theta clear, then can be defined as a person who is at cause over his own reactive bank and can create and uncreate it at will. Less accurately he is a person who is willing to experience. Theta clear is stable.
4. Theta clear would mean clear of the mest body or cleared of the necessity to have a mest body.
5. There are two types of theta clear, the theta being which is cleared of its necessity or compulsion to have a body and a theta being which is cleared all the way on the track.
6. The basic definition of theta clear is: no further necessity for beingnesses.
7. This is a relative not an absolute term. It means that the person, this thought unit, is clear of his body, his engrams, his facsimiles, but can handle and safely control a body.
8. In its highest sense, means no further dependency on bodies.
9. An individual who, as a being, is certain of his identity apart from that of the body, and who habitually operates the body from outside, or exteriorized. (from TD)

The list of all human emotional states, arranged beside an arbitrary scale number from -40 (total failure), through 0 (death), to +40. "SPs are at 1.1, Covert Hostility, on the Tone Scale."
Tone Scale
A scale which shows the emotional tones of a person. These, ranged from the highest to the lowest, are, in part serenity (the highest level), enthusiasm (as we proceed downward), conservatism, boredom, antagonism, anger, covert hostility, fear, grief, apathy. (from SOS glossary)
Tone Scale
The intention to exert effort bridges into the body by emotion. In other words, the physical-mental bridge is called the energy manifestation of affinity. As used in Dn, emotion could be called the index of state of being. In the English language, 'emotional' is often considered synonymous with 'irrational.' This would seem to assume that if one is emotional one cannot be reasonable. No more unreasonable assumption could possibly be made. (From the TD)

A cult medical regimen meant to reduce ridges (afflicted areas due to impact) in the body due to injury. Several methods are used. One involves repeatedly touching the injured part back to the object which caused the injury. Another involves using the hands to smooth away the supposed built-up ridges or force lines from impact between objects or flows. Yet another involves sticking a finger on the body, and saying "feel my finger" repeated, as always, ad nauseum.

According to Chuck Beatty:
«The Truth Rundown consists of Rollback and then sec checking. It is an overall procedure to deal with the Black Propaganda that a staff member has spread about a well-intentioned group or individual.
Examples of typical Black
Propaganda that a Sea Org member
might have said and which he will have to deal with on the Truth
Rundown are as follows. A person has about 50 to 100 of these
lines, and similar lines are grouped into one overall line, so
as not to be unnecessarily duplicative:
1) The CMO don't know what the
hell they are doing. They are a bunch of amateurs.
2) Joe [good exec in fact] is an evil son of a bitch
3) Jane (an auditor) is a fucking
squirrel! [When in truth
she was auditor of the year.]
4) LRH does not know what he
is talking about when it comes to how to polish a car.
5) LRH was always cross ordering himself.
6) Joe [Good junior overall in fact] likes to crash his
stats just to get me [his
senior] in trouble with my seniors.
7) The RTC Representatives are
out to get me, they are like vultures. [When in fact the RTC
Reps haven't acted in any way like this.]
Etc., etc.» [ref]
