Dianetics by L. Ron Hubbard

The book in question is a foundational text for a self-help system that aims to assist individuals in achieving spiritual enlightenment and mental clarity. It posits that the human mind is divided into two parts: the analytical mind, which behaves rationally, and the reactive mind, which stores traumatic memories, or "engrams," that can negatively affect an individual's well-being. Through a process known as "auditing," the book claims to offer a methodology for individuals to systematically clear these engrams from their reactive minds, thereby improving their mental health and unlocking their full potential. The techniques and principles outlined in the book have been widely influential and also controversial, leading to the establishment of a new movement centered around the book's teachings.
