What is Scientology?
details >> 

Will Scientology put one in control of his mind?

Yes. As man is a spiritual being, quite separate from his mind and his body, Scientology will help him achieve a far better command over his mind, just as it helps him to control in an intelligent way all aspects of his life.

Is Scientology about the mind?

No. Scientology is about the individual himself as a spiritual being separate and distinct from the mind.

Does Scientology believe in mind over matter?

In practicing Scientology you address yourself — not your mind, not your body, but you.

Scientologists have found that the spirit is potentially superior to material things, and that the spirit, i.e., you, if cleansed of past traumas, transgressions and aberrations, can make miraculous changes in the physical universe that would not otherwise be possible.

Does Scientology believe one can exist outside of the body?

Before entering Scientology many people experience the feeling of looking down on one’s body, but they do not understand what is happening. Once they have achieved greater spiritual awareness through Scientology auditing and training they find that this experience becomes nothing out of the ordinary. Scientology believes that man is not his body, his mind or his brain. He, a spiritual force, energizes the physical body.

Scientology proved, for the first time, that man was a spiritual being, not an animal.
