Field Staff Members HatsIn Scientology, we have a policy about CONTESTS and PRIZES.
The surest way to break a lot of hearts is to run a contest in which only a minority get prizes. That is very homo sap.
In Scientology we never offer minority type prizes.
Our CONTESTS must be planned so that EVERY ENTRANT gets a prize or the prize.
This comes from the nature of Scientology itself. Scientology is the only “game” in the Universe where everybody wins.
We must mirror this fact and punch it home whenever we can.
From this various policies develop: Scientology is open to all people.
In certificates and status the road is open to all Scientologists who can qualify level by level.
On any offering, anybody can have it if he or she qualifies.
We have lots of certificates and grades.
There are no exceptions. Anybody has a chance to go up in certificates, staff status and case gain and state of beingness.
Our posts are something else. Bill’s top attainment is his recovery of self. His attainment is not becoming Joe.
Our posts we hold in trust as our appointed place. Though gained by ability, posts are not prizes. They are responsibilities we hold to help.
Therefore we do not seek each other’s posts.
We respect the other fellow whatever his status and give him his right to win the biggest prize of all, himself or herself. That prize is won by dedicated exact application of Scientology and full support of our mission in our organizations and the public.
Organized, we can each one win the biggest prize that can be offered — a full recovery of self.
As a team, helping one another, respecting each other’s posts, our seniors and juniors on staff, and following our admin and tech procedures, we keep the door open and make the grade ourselves—the Top can’t be reached without help, without organization, without the policies that coordinate our actions and the exact technology we apply.
So we don’t offer minority prizes. We symbolize in every contest an open door for case and status gain for all by giving everyone a prize in any “contest” we hold.
And we hold our posts, not as something to be contested for, but as a competent teammate in a strong and well coordinated operation in which each one does his job.
There is no greater game in the Universe than Scientology, for it is the only game in which everybody wins. And that places it far above all other games and makes it the game of games where everybody gets the ultimate prize of self—and sound companionship as well.
