Read the TROM books many times through. Coleen and I are working to produce the "clear written" copies of the supplemental lectures. The process requires that I read the texts through multiple times to find poorly worded sentences, misspelled words, incorrect punctuation ect. Each time through my understanding of the nuances of TROM get better. For instance in the Lecture Dissociation of Jan 1993 Dennis says: "Now the thing is that when you audit the negatives you get a person who's into “not know” or dramatizing “not know” or dramatizing “to not be known” and you audit them, you take the person who's into “not know” when you audit him he comes up scale and he starts to go over more and more to the “to be known” postulate. In other words the cycle of the person in the “to be known” postulate is that his opterm, his opposition terminal is “to not know”. That's the enemy is “to not know” and he takes on the characteristics of it. Now the further he goes down scale the more he goes into the valence of “to not know” so as you audit him and he's into “not know” as you audit him and bring him upscale eventually you'll bring him back up to the “to be known” postulate so actually the person who's stuck in “to not know” when you audit him he comes up scale and you find he's a “to be knowner” that's where he really belongs, up there." When I first read this I felt it must be wrong. The must not know should with auditing move up to leg 3 must know. It was only after reading it about 10 times that it hit me that he was talking about the exclusion postulate. This is the exclusion postulate tech. As "must be known" becomes more compulsively dramatizing "must be known" he also dramatizes "must not know". You can't tell an angry man anything. see the book 03 Expanding on Level 5, Section: The Exclusion Postulate, How Games Become Compulsive. As the "must be known" is audited he stops dramatizing the "must not know" exclusion postulate and goes back to operating on his "must be known" postulate." Colleen and I are going through the SupplementalLectures books again to point out these areas of confusion by putting notes from the editor in the text amount other things. As soon as we both agree they are ready I will put them up at tromhelp.com for everyone to download. Keep rereading the materials. It helps.
