CREATIVE PROCESSING

Processing in which the person makes things up in his own mind — pictures, objects, scenes — using his own imagination rather than recalling something that happened. He is creating rather than remembering.

From the AOGP Abridged Scientology Dictionary — based on original LRH source materials, updated through 1982.

Usage

An auditor running creative processing may ask the person to put up a picture of something and then change it, move it or throw it away. The point is not the picture; it is that the person finds he can make and unmake it at will.

Why It Matters

A person who can freely create is much less at the mercy of pictures he did not choose. Creative processing works on that ability directly.
