Scientology has truly changed my life. Before I got into Scientology I searched for a “purpose” to life. Why is mankind here on Planet Earth? Where do we go from here? To Heaven? To Hell? I was searching for answers. I tried many religions from Catholicism to Buddhism, Sufism, Transcendental Meditation, etc. I COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING THAT FELT LIKE “TRUTH” to me... until I read a book by L. Ron Hubbard called Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health. In this book, Ron states that the basic purpose of mankind is survival. After 25 years of research, he discovered the common denominator of all mankind was purely and simply...survival. In all cultures, all races, tribes, etc. all man was trying to do was such a simple, basic truth to me. At that point I began to make myself survive better! I have been in Scientology for 25 years now and I am doing so well in life that I feel wonderful everyday! Scientology offers me and my family/friends the tools we need to survive better, and as simple as it is-- that is Mankind’s basic purpose.
