Dianetics is a technology developed by L. Ron Hubbard that specifically addresses the reason for stress, depression and anxiety.
While developing Dianetics, Mr. Hubbard researched human behavior and successes and failures and the underlying causes of these things. The research he did resulted in the procedures of Dianetics that can be used by anyone to easily rid themselves of the cause of their unwanted emotions and reactions. Dianetics addresses the cause of your unwanted conditions.
It works like this: Dianetics explains that your mind consists of two parts: the analytical mind and the reactive mind. The analytical mind is the mind you use in everyday life to solve problems, that is to say it evaluates information and comes up with solutions.
The analytical mind consists of pictures. These pictures are more than simple flat pictures however, they are three dimensional and contain sight, sound, smell, touch, taste and many other perceptions. In Dianetics these are called facsimiles. These pictures are recorded day in and day out, regardless of what the individual is doing. This is how you are able to remember things. For example, get a picture of cat in your mind. Did you do it? That picture is a picture in your analytical mind.
Well, that all sounds nice and good. So wheres the problem? Youll find in Dianetics that the problem lies in this second part of your mind - the reactive mind, as it is called in Dianetics. Now this principle of a subconscious unconscious or bad part of your mind has been hinted at in many fields of study, including psychology and psychiatry. However, in Dianetics it was discovered, for the first time, exactly what is in this mind, how it works, how things get into it in the first place, and how to get them out. No other science or field of study involves the mind in such a precise, workable technology.
