OPENING PROCEDURE BY DUPLICATION
A process in which a person does the same thing over and over with two different objects, usually a book and a bottle. He walks to one, picks it up, answers questions about it, puts it down, walks to the other and does exactly the same, and then goes back and does it again.
From the AOGP Abridged Scientology Dictionary — based on original LRH source materials, updated through 1982.
Usage
The objects are placed several feet apart, at a height the person can reach without bending, so he has to walk between them. The point is not the book or the bottle; it is being able to do the same thing again without it becoming a different thing.
Why It Matters
Being unable to duplicate is quietly behind a great deal of trouble, in study and in life. This process is the plainest handling of it there is.
