And even more than a prediction, let there be no doubt, it was his dream. Yes, he worked to address the problem directly, and at every strata, from programs for white juvenile delinquents, to literacy tools for black African schools—not to mention an end to the policy of separateness.
But there was something far more important. Because LRH knew those chains would be broken, and yet the freedom sought would not be achieved without something else. For, how free is a man if he is not able?
And that is why, above all else, he worked to bring the spiritual freedom that is only possible through the technology of Scientology. And so the Johannesburg Church served as his base of operation to, quite literally, standardize the pattern of operation for all Scientology.
More than just the training of auditors, he worked to provide the means to place the tech in everybody's hands. Developing the Anatomy of the Human Mind Course as the means to both enlighten and educate anyone — that was Johannesburg. Then again, the Personal Efficiency Course, for the everyday man. That too was Johannesburg.
And while LRH would soon return to Saint Hill, to both standardize auditor training throughout the world, while also providing the Grade Chart itself, his heart never left Africa. Point in fact, the filmed LRH lectures comprising the Clearing Course were filmed in Africa.
And while that story is long, it can best be summed up in another statement he authored in Johannesburg, wherein he defined "Personal Integrity":
"To know what you know and to have the courage to know and say what you've observed."
Since ultimate freedom could not be achieved in a land where 90% of the people could not yet avail themselves of it, LRH set out to change that in the most direct and practical terms, proposing constitutions in both South Africa and Rhodesia calling for "one man, one vote."
While he brought those proposals to the highest levels, he was still yet thirty years ahead of his time, and the powers-that-be were frightened by his vision of freedom for every man. And although it was the end of that chapter, it was far from the end of the story.
