WHAT IS SCIENTOLOGY?
Scientology, which means "knowing how to know," is a religion based on the works of L Ron Hubbard (1911-1986). The first church was established In Los Angeles in 1954, and today there are more than 4,300 Scientology churches, missions and groups around the world.
Scientology is a religion that offers a path to full self realisation and spiritual awareness and ability. The word Scientology means “the study of knowledge” or literally “knowing how to know”. Scientology follows the older Eastern traditions of religious philosophy dating back 10,000 years to the Vedic Hymns: that one is in a state brotherhood with the universe and that spiritual enlightenment comes through increasing knowledge of one’s self. Through this process one comes to fully understand themselves, others and the universe and ultimately your relationship to the Creator.

SCIENTOLOGY BELIEFS: WHAT IS SCIENTOLOGY?
Scientology addresses the spirit - not simply the body or mind - and believes that man is far more than a product of his environment, or his genes.
Scientology comprises a body of knowledge which extends from certain fundamental truths.
Prime among these are:
Man is an immortal spiritual being.
His experience extends well beyond a single lifetime.
His capabilities are unlimited, even if not presently realized.
In Scientology we hold man to be basically good, and that spiritual salvation depends upon the individual and people around them and attainment of brotherhood with the universe.
Scientology is not a dogmatic religion in which one is asked to believe anything on faith. An individual discovers for himself that Scientology works by applying its principles and observing or experiencing the results.
The ultimate goal of Scientology is true spiritual enlightenment and freedom for the individual.
