Or he can practice mindfulness, moderation, and non-attachment even with respect to alcohol if he wishes.
You can’t just dip a toe into the pool of Scientology. You need to tie a dive belt around your neck and leap head first into the deep end. You won’t regret your decision. Becoming clear will inflate your IQ and likely make you telepathic. But, that is nothing compared to the rewards you receive if you join SeaOrg.
This!

I’m not sure one wouldn’t be better off with a Jungian analyst.
Wait. You’re in the UK, right? Go talk to Arthur. Arthur Uther Pendragon, real guy, neo-pagan, may or may not be the present incarnation of King Arthur, rides a motorcycle.

If Tom Cruise is your hero, dive on in. If you think he is batshit insane, run for the border.

Raelism! i’m that now. thanks for the link. my life suddenly makes total sense.
