L. Ron Hubbard, wrote Dianetics:
In Dianetics, the unconscious or reactive mind is described as a collection of "mental image pictures," which contain the recorded experience of past moments of unconsciousness, including all sensory perceptions and feelings involved, ranging from pre-natal experiences, infancy and childhood, even the traumatic feelings associated events from past lives and alien cultures. The type of mental image picture created during a period of unconsciousness involves the exact recording of a painful experience. Hubbard called this phenomenon an engram, and defined it as "a complete recording of a moment of unconsciousness containing physical pain or painful emotion and all perceptions."
The politician is not aware of these engrams. At sometime, unaware as they are, they have acquired an engram ... they have heard ... "It's not mine, spend it."
So, as a politician, faced with a decision to make, his unconscious kicks in, and he spends.
True story. I knew a girl, in Reno, 21 dealer, had bad eyesight, big thick glasses, some problems seeing cards, which is not a good thing dealing 21. She sought help from a therapist in Reno, who was working with Hubbard's theory. She went through the "regressive" therapy. In her childhood, she had hit a tree on her bike, nothing serious, but very bloody. Her Mother was elbowing her way through an assembled crowd, some were saying, "Don't look, don't look, she is not hurt, don't look, let us clean her up, don't look, yet."
The girl, my friend, was semi conscious and heard those remarks ..... under therapy, that "engram" .... don't look, was revealed to her conscious mind, her eyesight improved, she quit wearing glasses. She made me a believer.
Something happened in the life of a politician to implant that engram, "spend it" in their mind, and they do. There are other words that become engrams that linger in their unconscious also, the list would be too long. Just work backwards from one of their actions, and you will know what it was. And now, you know why. Unfortunately, some of them are still "unconscious" and they are loaded with engrams. Perhaps therapy should be a "must" before entering politics.
Spend some time, take just one politician's actions, then, imagine what happened in their youth to plant that engram there .................. "Oh, I see!"
