Every high scale manifestation or activity has a low scale mockery:

There can be an apparent clear reading on a case that has never been successfully audited. This case is too low toned to register at all as a thetan. The resulting read is therefore that of the body minus a bank. No overts will show up on the needle of this case.

Only when responsibility has been run does this case shift off the low reading and get different tone arm and needle responses.

Such a case is fairly easy to recognize. The case has obvious areas of great irresponsibility and yet reads like a clear. But once you scout out the case this state of affairs becomes upset and the case reads otherwise, and then eventually comes back after an awful lot of sessions and intensives into the clear range and stays there. But now the case is able where it was before very apathetic and really useless.

Any clear check out must include the following exercise and indeed this is the process which gets these low level cases really cracking. This is both a clear examination and a good entrance to cases. It is also the best way to check out overts when in doubt.

You run on the E-Meter a dynamic assessment and pick up any dynamic that gives a change of needle pattern, or take any dynamic which makes needle drop no matter how slightly.

Having located the dynamic we now ask the pc for any terminal he or she thinks would represent that dynamic. We take any terminal that has any drop on it as given or suggested by the pc.

On this terminal we now run overt/withhold as follows:

"What have you done to a (terminal)?"

"What have you withheld from a (terminal)?"

This was the terminal realest to the pc, therefore when responsibility is increased on it you have generally increased responsibility.

When we have flattened this off mildly we go through the whole operation above again.

Before we have done this many times overts will begin to show up on the case and will be recognized by the pc.

Doing this well just once unsettles the false clear reading and that reading will not return until the case is actually cleared.
