[Bruce Hines and Neil Gaiman, in a time gone by]
[Today's guest post is by Bruce Hines]
What was it like to be a Flag auditor? I imagine that most people would have no interest in finding out. But I figured I’d write something so there can be some record of it, possibly for future historians (tip of the hat to Chuck Beatty). It is an account of one aspect of the inner workings of the Church of Scientology. While there are many people who shared a similar experience to mine, I have seen very little written about such things. Here is my depiction of the day-to-day life of a person who became an auditor in a unique organization within the Scientology network.
So, firstly, for those who know little or nothing about the subject, what is a Flag auditor? An auditor is someone who practices Scientology’s one-on-one “processing” on another person. A PR term for auditing is “spiritual counseling.” I think this is a misnomer. In a session, an auditor is not counseling the person being audited. Counseling implies advice or suggestions or recommendations. An auditor asks specific prescribed questions or gives specific prescribed commands, and is not allowed to comment on the answers or results.~~~READ MORE
