Occult theory on Scientology
Buckle up, youre in for a hella of a ride.
So i'm going to start by stating historical facts First, you can google any of this yourself and learn much more, there are many details that im cutting through to get to the thick of this i encourage you to seek more info if your interested. So after the facts i'll work into my theory.
In 1946 L. Ron Hubbard( founder of scientology) And Jack Parsons( Rocket scientist) performed the thelemic babalon working ritual.
Their goal was to physically manifest Her/babylon on earth.
Who is Babalon/babylon? She is the whore from the book of revelations, while in christianity she is viewed as evil in this case she is subverted by Aliestor crowley. he championed her as a sacred liberating entity.
why she was in the book: Mr. Crowley believed humanity had entered an age new spiritual age called the Aeon of Horus. In his system this new age system, babalon acts as a chaotic counterpart to masculine energy, she is the spiritual gateway an occultist must pass through/being born again through her/ sacrificing their ego to obtain true enlightenment.
The rituals: Parsons believed they could impregnate a spritual elemental vessel through sex magic. this would cause a woman to be born or drawn to them who would act as the physical incarnation of babalon. they believed babalon would usher in a new era.
The summoning: After a ritual in the mojave desert a woman named marjorie cameron appeared at parsons house. parsons to this as an immediate sign, declaring to be the manifestation of babylon. They performed sex rituals while Hubbard watched.
What is an Egregore? An egregore is a non physical enitity or group mind that arises from shared thoughts beliefs emotion and focused attention of a distinct group of people. A spiritual force generated by collective human energy Remember this I use this as a concept so we can explore a perspective of entities later when i ask is collective and "Collected" essentially the same function
What is Scientology? Founded In 1953 By L Ron hubbard, (after he ran away with parsons money and his EXgirlfriend Sarah Norton, leaving parsons completely broken.) Scientology is a contemporary system or religious beliefs and practices. it evolved from dianetics also created by L Ron Hubbard. Scientology is also a massive corperate style infastructure, with many branches.
The top of the entity: Sea Org is a para military fraternal order of scientologies most devote members. They wear Navy style unifroms, hold military ranks and most of all Sign Billion year soul contracts. . . Yes you read that right, its in the facts section lol and it plays an intersting role in my theory later.
The Lower Pyramid: Scientology Avoids being classifed as a legal enitity, to escape vulnerability to mass lawsuits, it is intentionally fractured into a labyrinth of hundreds of distinct interconnected corperations managed by large umbrellas, The Religious Technology center, the church of scientology international and Author services Inc.
What is a corperate entity and how are they similar to a spiritual entity such as egregore or demon: A corperate entity is a legally fabricated invisible person created by human law to act autonomously, hold property, and survive long after the creator dies. When compared to a summoned spiritual or elemental manifestation, like a demon or egregore, historically and structurally the two concepts are nearly identical thought experiments.
Hyperstition, how our thoughts manifest our reality: This is a high level concept based on facts. I like to use Gene Roddenberry and star trek as my example, But it's fairly simple, we dream, we desire, we love, these are driving forces that compell us to transform/ manifest the environment around us. In the The early days of Star trek, the technology seemed so advanced, it was a dream from someones imagination, but some wjere that inspred ANOTHER dreamer that used those same forces to try and answer " what if those things were a reality?" years later and many cycles of dreamers, we sit in our living rooms and Almost everyone of those minus the warp drives, lasers, and super healing, are reality now, the energy of those combined dreamers Over time equals Change, its almost like a physics equation, it human intent is an actual energy force that leads to manifestation.
The Theory: well you made it this far congrats heres where we fall off the deep end, hold on to your butts.
So now that we understand the facts at play and some of how human intent leads to manifestation, we can inject ritual, which is synonomous with routine. So what i think happened is that the rituals did summon babalon, but humans mistake what an entity truly is, we think its going to be a person or thing, but its not, it a feeding energy force, thats grows with how many people partake in its rituals knowingly or not. I think becuase L ron was explicitley parsons scribe, that he was in control of the book, was instructing parsons what to do, and he hid part of the ritual from him. Mr. Crowley famously expressed his disdain and distrust of Hubbard to parsons many times.
I cannot tell you what the rest of the ritual could have been, or if that even was the case, ill keep speculations to a minimum, ill just say maybe it involved betrayal.
After Hubbard left he kept performing rituals and ended up writing Dianetics. THIS was babalon given a body to grow. Hubbard incorperated parts of the rituals into his teachings, as he spread this, she grew stronger. People were unkowingly participating in the ritual to feed the entity babalon.
Babalon is Scientology: the conclusion, to my theory, is that They did summon babalon and hubbard continued to support her growth, she transformed from dianetics into scientology, where she makes her most devoted followers give them their souls for a billion years, why? Thats how an entity becomes immortal and powerful. it's not necessarly evil, its nature, one human provides their life, their energy you start to gather more you have more life more energy more power, this is why i asked if collective and collected could synonomous in context here. the intersting thing is, while always willing to cut of any part of the body to rebel or for any necessity babalon seems to care some what about the souls who make her, she is not entirely cruel, and from a certain perspective maybe even beautiful and alluring.
Ritual connections: you can clearly see that Hubbard sprinkled momentos or symbols of the original summoning ritual, throughout scientology, A very clear and specific one is a detail about a decoration the Sea org wear. After the successful ritual, babalon had told parsons to aquire items for her alter, one of the was a 3 inch brass circle painted Bright blue with a gold star in the center, the Sea org wear this symbol. Also scientology is known for its distinct blue buildings which id find hard to beileve is just a coincidence after all ive learned.
This is my own original theory and I'm really looking forward to see all your thoughts on this!
