What Does Dennis Mean by the Concept "The Governor"?

Why did Dennis use the word "governor" to describe the purpose
of RI? I've been trying to ignore that word.
To me RI satiates the mind's need for importances by consciously
giving it more mass until the mind goes quiet, and then the
timebreaking can well begin, whether at the beginning of a
session or during a session.
My view is the mind hates a vacuum, so at the end of the session
I also do RI until the mind is satiated ("no more change").
Coming from a scientology background I prefer to call it
"running havingness", or a havingness process, and I know Dennis
studiously avoided using scientology terms.
The best analogy I can think of is a mouse having a feeding
device that is filled with pellets, and the mouse presses the
lever and gets the pellet until it is satiated.
The governor implies restriction, and I think of RI as feeding
the mind.
RI governs (i.e., restricts) the mind's will nilly creation of
importances, and propensity to make a mountain out of a mole
hill.
I think, in that context, I am coming to a better understanding
of why he used the word "governor"; whereas I tend to think of
it as a "satiator" - it satiates the mind's need for
importances: sensation, a game, a motivator, etc.
With RI you are getting complementary with the mind and at the
same time getting command power over the mind without fighting
with it. It reminds me of judo. It feels good and imparts a
peaceful feeling when run to no more change.
I could see myself giving classes in creative visualization per
Dennis' instructs, and watching people get peaceful and
enlightened about their mind and their ability to create.

HI Karalee
Dennis uses the term Governor in the sense of a regulator on an
engine. The governor prevents the engine from racing away at
high speed which will result in damage to the engine.

Hello All,
Yes RI is a Havingness process, but it is also much more than
that.
Yes RI functions like the governor on an engine, but is more
than that as well.
It also acts like a fly wheel and it is important to give it a
spin frequently to keep the momentum going smoothly.

Yes, I concur, RI is much more than a havingness or satiation
process and one can start to realize that the more they do it.
I actually many decades ago once actually/accidentally and with
much surprise brought a small object into material existence
simply by strong postulate.
BTW, I had to clear up what is a flywheel and perhaps this short
video might help others too:

Survivor, what was your working definition of a flywheel in your
example here?

Hello,
What I had in mind was a store of kinetic energy. If RI is run
frequently, good and constant momentum is maintained in session
and in case gain.

Would you please describe that in more detail? Could you give
an example of this kinetic energy? All I experience is
lots of yawning off of psychic energy - is that what you meant

HI Karalee,
RI works on many levels. As Dennis Stephens said, it can not be
run too much, but it can definitely be run too little.
RI takes up about 1/3 of session time for me. If I feel the
least bit fuzzy during session I run RI. It makes things run
smoothly and even brings up and presents material to be run.
RI also can work as an exteriorisation process. It is the heart
of the TROM system.
For anyone having any difficulty running TROM, sufficient RI
could very will resolve the problem.
Don’t take the flywheel analogy too literally. It only describes
one of the many aspects of RI.

Thank you. Good stuff about RI being much more. Now I see the
momentum aspect. I also see it is therapeutic to restore a
comfort level with creating things. "Give it a spin" - good
advice, thank you.
