ello, my name is Bud Shilling, and here is a little bit about myself:

     I went to a Rosicrucian meeting and someone brought up the subject of Scientology. I asked, "What is that about?" The person told me that it was a way to get rid of inhibitions. "Good!" I said and realized that this was what I wanted. I had been reading self-help books to try to find some answers on this subject. I started reading Scientology: The Fundamentals of Thought and went to the Scientology center to listen to some lectures. I got some counseling and three or four months later I started the Communication Course. That was more than thirty years ago.
