Depends. For some indoctrinated in Scientology, probably. For the rest of the world, no.His Scientology tainted consciousness expansion?
Good question.Please explain what you mean by "consciousness expansion".

I doubt you can expand your native abilities - I do believe you can improve them through use, but not beyond their native limits.
Here's an example: On OT 7 especially, you do daily drilling of telepathy in the course of your auditing BTs. Let's not get into if they actually exist or not or are mis-labeled by Hubbard and are something else entirely. The solo auditor may not think of it as drilling, but in session you are emitting telepathic commands at the BT and conversely, expecting to receive telepathic responses from the BT. All that solo auditing amounts to daily practice of telepathy.
In my experience, after auditing on the level for a couple years, I was more prone to know who was calling me before seeing the #, hearing the voice etc.

In my experience, after auditing on the level for a couple years, I was more prone to know who was calling me before seeing the #, hearing the voice etc.; discuss a third person with a second (via calls or texts), and have the third text, or call within moments of the discussion. This is not to say it happens 100% of the time - so don't bother calling James Randi and ask if he gives finders fees.
I "know" he doesn't
I would say, yes, it has improved, but beyond my native capacity? I doubt it. So, you ask, I ain't on OT 7 nor would I if hell froze over. Well, here's an app for you!

Are you intimating that Scientology has something to do with "consciousness expansion"?His Scientology tainted consciousness expansion?
Just because OTs may not be able to psychically will traffic lights to change to green, it in no way diminishes other OT abilities.So, after much auditing, a person thinks that they (OT powers) can affect a traffic light to change to green for them.
Then, later, that person learns that their major roads have traffic intersection coordination.
Which is the most likely explanation for their traffic experience?
1. They have OT powers to turn the light green
2. It's just their imagination... traffic intersections are coordinated during some times of the day
You actually believe that BTs exist? There are no such things as "Body Thetans" and, therefore, one doesn't use "telepathy" to "talk" to them. Whether telepathy is true or not doesn't come into it.Here's an example: On OT 7 especially, you do daily drilling of telepathy in the course of your auditing BTs.

You think, in your belief in "Body Thetans", that you are standing on the side of logic and science? This is truly enlightening, and not in a good way.He is a naysayer on any point I may make that isn't bound in solid mest and his version of science.

Only among some ex-Scientologists . . . there are also many exies still pursuing their original purpose that led them into Scientology. Of course, many keep under wraps . . . and youse might be surprised just who among the anti-cult and the anti-Cof$ community that have maintained their search.His Scientology tainted consciousness expansion?
I did not say there was such a thing as body thetans. I said: " Let's not get into if they actually exist or not or are mis-labeled by Hubbard and are something else entirely." The solo auditor believes they are real. So he attempts to communicate with whatever they are or are not via telepathy and so it amounts to daily practice of telepathy.You actually believe that BTs exist? There are no such things as "Body Thetans" and, therefore, one doesn't use "telepathy" to "talk" to them. Whether telepathy is true or not doesn't come into it.
Solo auditing amounts to daily practice in self-deception.
But here is the thing, you believe in "Body Thetans" and HH makes fun of that -- and you then say:
