POSTULATE
(noun) A conclusion, decision or resolution made by the individual himself on his own self-determinism on data of the past, known or unknown. The postulate is always known. It is made upon the evaluation of data by the individual or on impulse without data. It resolves a problem of the past, decides on problems or observations in the present or sets a pattern for the future. It is an immediate act in the Theta universe by the one making the postulate upon the Theta universe, physical universe, other universes, or a combination thereof, based on the originators intent and domain of the postulate.
Usage
A postulate is a conclusion, decision, or resolution made by the individual on their own self-determinism. It can resolve a problem of the past, address something in the present, or set a pattern for the future, and it is always known to the person making it.
Why It Matters
The postulate is a fundamental mechanism of spiritual cause—it is the means by which a thetan acts upon the theta universe, the physical universe, or other universes. Understanding postulates is central to auditing because many conditions trace back to postulates the person has made.
