The beliefs and practices are easier to know than ever before in history. Not only does Scientology TV broadcast 24/7 many series… but right now the entire book Scientology: The Fundamentals of Thought is available at http://www.scientology.org/fot along with 19 other courses available at http://www.scientology.org/courses.
In order to understand a bit more about Scientology, you need to know The first principle of Scientology which is published in that beginning book here: https://www.scientology.org/fot/lesson-1/basic-principles.html.
You may have been taught that the mind, spirit and life are very difficult things to know about. This is the first principle of Scientology:
IT IS POSSIBLE TO KNOW ABOUT THE MIND, THE SPIRIT AND LIFE.
-L. Ron Hubbard, Scientology: The Fundamentals of Thought
Why is this so controversial or new? Well, unfortunately, the field of the mind, spirituality and life have often been looked on as things that cannot be solved. For example, Psychiatrists admit that they cannot cure anything, they vote upon symptoms they create into “diseases” that they can bill insurance companies for.
Psychologists are largely depressed themselves. If you went to a personal trainer, you’d probably expect that he or she can at least be fit themselves… if they cannot keep themselves fit, likely they don’t know much about fitness or health… right? So how about the fact that an estimated literally majority of psychologists are depressed themselves? (HIGHER than the average resident in the US — about 18% of US residents are “depressed”). So if going into the field of psychology makes you 2.5x more likely to be depressed, then YES most people will think that it’s impossible to know about the mind, really. Because after “studying” for many years you are more confused than when you started.
