From OP... I have happened upon a hardcopy of the all-time classic Advance #82 LA from 1984, thats oft times cited in academic journal articles re: scilon religion beliefs/doctrines cuz it's got the scilon buddha=maitreya=hubbard coverstory + related eastern-style beliefs crap in all its wretched glory. (/gag) my googlefu may be weak, but appears we dont have this leaked yet? can someone confirm before i commence to scanning?
ok good deal, thks... i'll get 'er done then. Meanwhile, the sales brochure / sliding-scale pricelist that was stapled to the outside of the mag has been mirrored here and added to my collection: http://www.scribd.com/doc/56672918/Scientology-Advanced-Org-USA-Prices-1984-Rate-Increases ^^note the rate increases going on up in thar... greed run wild from back in the day, in all its glory.
AdvanceMagazine82.pdf (circa 1984) There's a quote on pg10 of the PDF (pg9 in the mag page numbers) that i now have a piqued interest to track down as my next sauce on this whole hubbard=matreya delusion:

Feature article pages only on this partially leaked mag (quoted below) was kindly shared by a wwp lurker on scribd... Advance #149 - The Prophecy of Metteyya
UPDATE: I got a few more pages of this "Prophecy of Maitreya" issue gathered. Altho not a full mag, we nao haz all the stuff related to hymn of asia + feature story & covers (13pgs total) http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IHVPA59U From Inside Cover (Year 2000): ^^DO WANT 1975 ADVANCE! MAG For original release of Hymn of Asia book! anybody got one in their old stash?? if so, plox leak? TIA!
Based on references in this academic paper: Pseudo-Buddhism in the Form of Scientology I'm guessing Issues 25 & 26 would of been the initial HofA release announcement/sales push I'm looking for. But i would <3 to get ahold of any of the issue #'s listed above.
HOT DiGGiTY - SCORE!!!!1! My quest for Advance Mags re: the initial release of Hymn of Asia as brought forth a whole new level of ZOMG /FACEPALM bizzarro world of re-writing history. (/bows to leak sauce) Partial Advance Magazine LA # 27 Dec 1974 (10pgs only - covers + feature & HofA Ads) http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R9R4YHFB ^^From Buddha at one end of The Bridge to Hubbardized Maitreya at the other end!! Yes, i shi- U not, we haz HubBudda! oh hai! Appears this issue is the final chapter in a 5 PART SERIES where the life of Buddha has been ripped to shreds & rearranged into a grand fairy tale of HINDUISM -> lamaism, thru vishnu reincarnations, saint jehosat -> zen buddhism all while taking a shi- on chrisitianity at every bend in the road. From Table of Contents page (pg2 in PDF) ^^Changing My DO WANT wish list: Do WANT the rest of this series... in the worst way! Advance! LA Magazines Issues 23-26 1974, and Issue 28 1975
I have another benevolent leaker lined up to eventually get me partial renderings of Advance LA issue numbers 23, 24, 25, and 28 when time permits. So all I need to track down issue # 26. And said leaker could likely be persuaded to hurry up on passing those along to me if the hivemind can by chance halp dig up & share other old Advance LA issues - No. 1, and 3-16. Share and share-alike is beautiful thing, if anybody has any of these old issues but no means to easily scan and get them online - send me a PM and I'll make it easy & gladly help ya out.
Not my leak - just relaying... I now have part 1 of this heinous series of LRH perverting Buddhism to justify and explain the psycho babble in the Hymn of Asia poem. I'm almost too ashamed to post this, its that horrifying. I cant in good conscience do so without first doing 2 things. A) apologizing to all those with respect for Eastern Beliefs, there is a palpable evil in this leak and I honestly feel like I'm committing a sin spreading it. and b) attaching a warning as best i can to it... WARNING: CONTAINS EXTREMELY OFFENSIVE CONTENT Not recommended for current or past Buddhists. As a practicing Catholic who has a strong leaning towards universalism-like views that all of the major religions contain truths, enlightenment & salvation... I consider this text akin to somebody handing me a cleverly disguised copy of Anthony Lavey's Satanic Bible and not forewarning me what I'm about read. If your unsure if you can stomach this and are still considering d/l'ing after seeing the perverted cover below - I recommend you flip to the middle of the PDF (pgs 9-10) and read the 1page verse by LRH called "the Abyss" before you read the main "Message of Buddha" article. ^^That short verse (and related fullpage drawing) seemingly explains where this whole series is going: Nirvana = GPM in scientological terms, and Nirvana = The Abyss of Hell in christian terms [Main article states Buddha's aims were Catholic]. Thus, LRH's claim to be the reincarnated Maitreya who's finishing Buddha's work of essentially leading everybody to hell (rather than nirvana). Yes it's subtle - but its in there, and it made me physically ill and I only have an average understanding of Buddhism and minimal practice at its teachings from over 20yrs ago. Partial Advance LA #23 1974 (14pgs - includes covers + 2 main articles) http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NNP89AM8 View attachment 135e8bbecaa0315745e875d38a0aad1f9418f69ec4952343a6 And again - for those who will find this utterly offensive, i am sorry for being the channel that resurrects this leviathan of monstrous lies on the world. First Hubbard leak i evar seen where I honestly felt the world at large was probably better off NOT ever seeing it again. And FWIW - i sit here with tears streaming down my face while forcing myself to post this. Never realized before how hard it was to drag something truly evil out into the light of day. Sunshine, can be a bitch - even if its for the greater good of exposing the truth. brb - I need to speak to my favorite priest... for a long time.
Not my leak, just relaying an oldie but a goodie: Scientology Freedom Magazine Vol18 No. 4, Dec 1974 CIA, IRS, InterpoL & Nazi's, Medical Monopolies... ohhhh my!!! These shitheads were just as crazy bak then as they are now. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZQUB73HB According to pg3, this is one of the classic L. Fletcher Prouty issues. The former JFK aid the cult brought in as an expert that proclaimed Hubbard's military record "sheep dipped," which Wright's NewYorker Piece & Related Dox has now fully debunked. I'm told that as apart of that deal Prouty also did series of Freedom Mag propoganda articles. This be one of 'em as Prouty is listed as the 2nd Senior Editor.
Hey AL, I'm loosely a Buddhist. I can't access megaupload. Government blocked a bunch of file sharing sites, including megaupload. I tried using a proxy, but still can't get around the block. Can you possibly give a link for rapidshare or other less well-known file sharing site for this? I'd be interested in seeing this. Cheers.
https://rapidshare.com/files/2152010446/Advance_23_LA_1974_HofA_Part1.pdf let me know if you want any of the other Buddhism-related issues from farther up thread
sekrit sauce sends their apologies - they ^^accidentally pg7 and left out a chunk of gubmint slander lulz http://tinypic.com/r/96db43/7
Thanks for the RapidShare link, I got the file. A few weeks ago, the government blocked access to Wikileaks, Pirate Bay, Megaupload, and a few other sites. Annoying. Sorry, back on topic now. OK, reading the ADVANCE! magazine. Pretty screwed up Scientology propaganda. Scientology totally insults Buddhism in the article. Tom Cruise said the Buddhism was the grandfather of Scientology? Utter nonsense. Sample poem from the article. The Abyss by L. Ron Hubbard The mystics spoke of the Abyss. They said that in trying to cross it, many fell into the darkness. Without knowing it, they spoke of the Goals Problem Mass. The Buddhists spoke of Nirvana. Without knowing it they spoke of vanishing forever into the GPM (Nirvana). They had become completely overwhelmed, lacking meters and a map. We are Scientologists. We won' t fall into the abyss. And we won't join Nirvana. We have meters and a map. We know the rules and the way. This is the greatest adventure of all time. Clearing. The way is strewn with the skeletons and skulls of those who have tried over the past trillenia. The bottom of the abyss is glutted with failures. Nirvana is choked with the overwhelmed. To say it is not a dangerous way would be false. Only the faint-hearted will add any bones to the Abyss or apathy to Nirvana. We are Scientologists. We have won. L. Ron Hubbard
The poem - aint nothing... the symbolism of the cover art is absolutely heinous. And in Buddhism, the symbolism is everything. Part 2 coming tonight, Part 3 likely tomorrow. Once i get all that i can get of all the Buddhism related issues gathered & posted, i will start new thread specifically on this stuff and breakdown why the symbolism in cover art is so bad.... and how it seemingly portrays a very DARK evil message of what Hubbard was really saying. Hint: Mara is HubBuddha's disciple... NOT his temptor. His ascetics (the real disciples) go exterior and take the place of Mara. (*cough*) Sacrificial demonic possession anyone? The proof of those sort of intentions is in here if you know what your looking at and how almighty holy ghost powerful the symbolism in Buddism is. And its especially hard to deny what the lying old bastard was trying to pull when your bhumpa bears the mask of the devil dance. (*ahem* I C What U Did Thar L.R.Fktard... disguising the skulls in the headress wasnt near enuff to cloak your REAL intentions.) We can exploit this shit bigtime to STOP the asian expansion. We might even be able to reasonable conclude the missing link w/ Crowley occult teachings (a better match to the task of building a school of thought) is in here. Thus i will start a new thread after leaks all posted ITT and commence to explain, document, and illustrate. Who knew there'd be dox on da evil. heh.
At the Vancouver Anon Raid today, Gerry Armstrong was in attendance. Gerry held up a sign all afternoon. Printed in bold text on one side is "THANK GOD. L. RON HUBBARD WAS DEAD WRONG!" (Being reminded that the slimy weasel is dead always makes me smile). The other side of the sign, in bold text: "$CIENTOLOGY: GIVE US BACK OUR PEOPLE!" Personally, I'm not of the 'gawd' persuasion, but I think the signage was effective. I plan to set aside some time to read the articles on Buddhism in the scilon magazines. BIG THANK YOUs, to POOKS and AL for making this stuff available to us.
It'll be easier to digest as a whole once i get new thread started & publish the related info packs from my SCIENTOLOGY RELIGIOSITY? series that I'm working on as mai summer project.
