UPPER INDOCTRINATION
The training drills numbered 6 to 9, which teach an auditor to get a command carried out and to hold his position while doing it. They come after the communication drills and are more demanding than them.
From the AOGP Abridged Scientology Dictionary — based on original LRH source materials, updated through 1982.
Usage
The 18th Advanced Clinical Course, held in Washington from 8 July to 16 August 1957, was taught in three parts: the communication course, the upper indoctrination course, and the CCH course. Upper Indoctrination is where the drills stop being about listening and start being about getting something done.
Why It Matters
Being able to give a command and have it carried out, without force and without apologizing for it, is a skill few people are ever taught. These drills are where an auditor learns it.
