ROUTINE

A standard process, designed to release an in-session pre-clear on the grade to which it applies.

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

Usage

A routine is a standard auditing process designed to achieve release for a preclear on the specific grade to which it applies. For example, the processes run at Grade 0 are routines designed to produce a Communication Release.

Why It Matters

Routines provide standardized, proven procedures that auditors follow to achieve consistent results at each grade level. Their standardization ensures that every preclear receives the same quality of processing regardless of which auditor delivers it.
