       March 29 '18 Session Win with Level Two
   DIR By: Colleen

       Hello Trommers
       There has been a nagging childhood incident that was very
       occluded and very complicated with all kinds of sticky
       postulates; at the same time a later set of scenes/incidents
       kept popping up and they were not occluded.
       My Trom twin and I decided it easier to work on the later
       incident, and that turned out to be a good idea.
       In the later scene there was fixation on the tiled floor. and so
       Level Two completely took away the fixation on it and revealed
       some past incidents that helped to create this fixation, and
       amazingly the whole scene started to vanish - to lose its
       importance and all that remained to timebreak in that incident
       were the prime postulate and its pan-determined postulate.
       In past attempts to timebreak this incident it dragged on and on
       with lots of stress and emotions - until I decided to timebreak
       the tiled floor.  Why did it take me so long to do that?
       Because I thought all the importance must be on the other person
       in the scene and was not following where my mind was really
       going.
       Repeater Tech (repeating the postulate and its opposer over and
       over again until there is no more change) was used, with some
       good results.  Will go at it again in next session.
       The best timebreaking imho is when the postulates finally reveal
       themselves to be worked on... the sooner the better :-)

       Wow nice post :-))
       I'm a newbie here, although I have done a lot of level 2 a few
       years ago.
       I got discouraged with how much time it was taking.
       I had thought that everyone had lost interest in TROM at that
       time.
       Then to my delight I see there are at least a few people running
       the tech since Dennis passed away.
       That's quite a while so we should have some interesting data
       available.
       I'm wanting to start back up again.
       Would anyone here be so kind as to say roughly how long it took
       to run each level?
       That might help me a lot in regards to motivation for example.
       Also whether you had any previous Scio or Freezone scio
       experience, and whether you felt that had an impact on time
       spent.
       Any advice in this regard would be much appreciated
       Thanks,
       rvh

       Hello rvh,
       It is great you have done Level Two, and might need merely a
       re-tread before starting into Level Three.
       Truthfully, I should be on Level 4 by now, if I had not allowed
       myself to be distracted with "more important" interests, of
       which I have many at any one time... my creative urges are
       strong. It's as Dennis said, the desire to play is greater than
       the desire to vanish the mind.
       The best thing I ever did, besides finding Dennis' data, was to
       get into a good working relationship with a long time friend who
       also became a Trommer shortly after I introduced it to him.
       We work over skype almost every a.m. and he has been a big help
       to me.  We are on Level Three, running only mostly pleasure
       scenes after running RI until no more change - which can
       sometimes take up almost the whole session time.  Why we did not
       do this sooner - we both marvel at that. I think in the
       beginning we made the trom practices seem difficult and hard to
       duplicate.  Do you recall where Dennis said the first time he
       tried out Level Two it knocked him for a loop?  I think the
       exact words he used was that it nearly took his head off, or
       something like that. The same with my own case.
       I studied most of Ron's materials and have had hundreds of hours
       of auditing outside the church - some of it actually useful,
       lol!
       I am currently dedicated to testing out trom practices and
       theory, and am not doing any other practices.
       Last year I did have an auditor run the "To Handle" process on
       me re my caretakers as a youth, with fantastic results re
       learned covert game strategies. I've also had some of John
       Galusha's tech run on me with fantastic results re stuck
       identity-forming postulates. That did calm my mind and helped
       stop me from crying about my case.
       Currently we timebreak mostly pleasure scenes or scenes that are
       not heavy with trauma, and we feel this is a good gradient for
       us.  We kept asking ourselves how Dennis could have thought
       timebreaking was fun, and now we have an answer.  He also said
       not to be a martyr, and he was obviously a big believer in
       correct gradients. One has to find their own "sweet spot" or
       comfortable gradient from Level Three into Level Four.
       Take as long as you need to take and make it fun, as you keep
       pushing the envelope on a good gradient for yourself. Just the
       fact that you put attention on your case and onto the inner
       workings of your mind and the minds of others, and learning
       about complementary postulates as opposed to contentiousness -
       you may get distracted but you will keep coming back until the
       job is done.
       My twin and I are loving doing our practices more than ever
       before.  We look forward to our timebreaking sessions.
       Currently we are timebreaking rather innocuous scenes from our
       childhood homes - taking a tour - and change is occurring, and
       we are having fun developing our timebreaking abilities.  This
       is real beginner level of Level Three.
       My latest major case change is letting go of a need to know it
       all intellectually, and life became simpler, more humble, and I
       left the remaining Facebook groups where I was sharing my
       extensive knowledgebase and experience with others, answering
       questions. I did a hat write-up and de-activated Facebook, and I
       unsubscribed from a dozen Youtube channels.  I am no longer that
       person/postulate set  :)

       Many thanks to you and much gratitude for you going the extra
       mile (literally) to make Dennis' work accessible, thank you,
       sir.

       This idea of getting “done” with TROM is odd to me. I view TROM
       is First Aid skills which i use as life throws emotionally
       charged stuff at me. I use timebreaking or RI as needed to let
       go of the charged games that regularly come up in life while
       trying to get along with others at work, or with the wife or
       children or with authority figures etc.
       I do not see any need to get done with TROM on a need to get
       skillful at applying the techniques to myself and to others.
       Sincerely
       Pete McLaughlin

       Yes, Pete, fantastic first aid tools for our little toolboxes.
       I'd certainly would throw in the Six-Directions and the Repeater
       Tech when they indicate.
       What do you think about Dennis saying Level Five will vanish our
       minds - or more correctly, our fixation for or against minds?
       Dennis' promise was that we would be able to be eternally a
       Voluntary Games Player, knowing all there is to know about
       games, with the option of going into a No Games Condition until
       we decide otherwise.

       When you say you have a "TROM twin" does that mean you did this
       in a group with a supervisor?
       The repeater technique, did you learn that from Dennis Stephens'
       books or is it just borrowed from Dianetics?

       Did I ever answer you? So sorry. My Trom twin and I only .... we
       each ran our own session at the same time.  The benefit was
       having someone to be accountable to - to show up and do the do.
       It was fun.
       Repeater tech is a Scio practice Ron mentioned. For example I
       saw I always got triggered by husband's make wrong that always
       started with "You used to ...". I proposed we sit across from
       each other - eyes open - and let me keep repeating "You used to
       ...".  Lots got viewed and timebroken as it flashed by, and
       finally got equivalent of the ole "floating needle".  :-)
       Having a person across from me kept me enough present while at
       the same time running not-so-nice scenes.
       Also repeater tech is good for some persistent running non-life
       statement or postulate. For example I knew a lady who was going
       batty and she kept saying, "I'm going crazy!!!" whenever she was
       upset.  She could have broken the circuitry or fixedness of that
       postulate running Repeater Tech.
