“Person’s ability to have a free access to the world and so forth depends in a large degree upon how well he can resolve his problems and so forth. But supposing all problems were resolved? Supposing every single problem were resolved. You would no longer, then, have a state of life as you envision it, you see. To think of ending this case completely would be to take every single problem out of it, right? And you would have something which a thetan does not care to be: an inactive nonparticipant. …
“Now, what then is this thing called ‘life’? It’s an endless succession of incidents, happenstances, and the only time a person actually suffers in the face of life, or is incapable in the face of life, is when he can’t enjoy these problems, when he can’t enjoy these incidents.”
— L. Ron Hubbard
