GROUP PROCESSING

Auditing given to a group of people together instead of one at a time. Its job is to bring people out of moments in the past they are stuck in and back to what is around them right now. Also called Group Auditing.

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

Usage

The group is seated in a quiet room where they will not be startled or interrupted, the auditor explains what is about to happen, and then he gives the commands to everybody at once. It works as far as the auditor can keep control of the room.

Why It Matters

Group Processing was how large audiences at congresses were given a first direct experience of auditing. Its usual effect is that people notice where they actually are.
