[Kevin's Note: despite these claims, the Church of Scientology refuses to accept volunteers to the Sea Org if they have taken LSD based on the idea that such persons have had unreliable performance- in other words, even if you are "free from the harmful effects of drugs", you STILL are effected enough not to work for the Sea Org- am I the only one that sees a contradiction here {or has enough bypassed charge on this idea that it pisses me off}] [Kevin Brady]

There are eight dynamics [Kevin's Note: there is evidence that Ron acknowledged at least 10 dynamics, and Geoffrey Filbert specifies and quantifies 16 dynamics in Excalibur Revisited- I believe the Pilot acknowledges these 16 dynamics as well]: first, self; second, sex and the family unit [Kevin's Note: creativity of any kind gets lumped in here sometimes]; third, groups; fourth, mankind [Kevin's Note: I call this the species dynamic: in other words, if you were a fish, your fourth dynamic would not be mankind, it would be fishkind: as such, this fourth dynamic is really just a specialized set of the third dynamic, that is, whatever species one belongs to]; fifth, life forms; sixth, physical universe; seventh, spirits; and eighth, Supreme Being. [Kevin's Note: I don't have hardcopy of the other eight dynamics with me, and will add them in underneath as a separate definition. In Standard Scientology, most people are not aware of the existence of dynamics above the eighth, and one doesn't run into communication about them unless one is an advanced student, in the independent field, usually. They are seen as harmonics of the first eight dynamics- more later] [Kevin Brady]

• (2) [Kevin] Ok, did some inspection. Excalibur Revisited and Self-Clearing differ on what the names (and therefor I assume the functions) of the upper dynamics are, but both agree there are eight additional dynamics. Because there is apparently a difference, and I am not an expert on these, I will simply list them in table form, and let you choose for yourself which list if any you will use. The table isn't working the way I wished, but the first thing listed is the dynamic number, the second thing is the Pilot's interpretation, and the third is Geoffrey Filbert's interpretation.
