Summary

The #1 New York Times bestseller

With over 22,000,000 copies sold in 50 languages, and used in more than 176 nations, Dianetics brings dramatic and permanent improvement to people all over the world.

“While it’s true that Dianetics has become the self-improvement classic, there can be little doubt that what it has to offer is just what people are now looking for in ever increasing numbers. Reducing stress, achieving goals, improving relationships and striving to live up to one’s full potential is definitely the in thing.” (New York Post)

“Hubbard’s bestseller has helped millions, and it should be read and used by all who are searching for a true understanding of the mind and a solution to such problems as self-doubt, stress, anxiety and depression.” (World Reporter)

“[Dianetics is] a new science which works with the invariability of physical science in the field of the human mind. From all indications it will prove to be as revolutionary for humanity as the first caveman’s discovery and utilization of fire.” (Daily Mirror)

If you’ve ever felt there was something holding you back in life, ruining your plans and stopping you from being who you want to be, you were right.

The fact is, there is a single source of all your problems, stress, unhappiness and self-doubt. It’s called the reactive mind—the hidden part of your mind that stores all painful experiences, then uses them against you.

With Dianetics, you can learn to control your reactive mind—freeing you to live an extraordinary life and be your true self.

Don’t live with insecurity, negative thoughts, depression and irrational behavior. Use Dianetics to take control of your future.

Key discoveries contained in Dianetics:

  • Why do we give up on our dreams?
  • What is the real cause of depression?
  • Is there a cure for stress?
  • How do you reach your full potential?
  • Why do we hurt the ones we love?
  • Why are some people prone to illness?
  • How can you improve your mental health?
  • Can you conquer your fears?

Start the adventure—of you. Buy and listen to Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health.

About the author:

With over two hundred million copies of his works in circulation and dozens of international bestsellers, L. Ron Hubbard has inspired a movement spanning every continent on earth. All told, those works comprise some 5,000 writings and 3,000 recorded lectures and, as such, stand as the single most embracive statement on the human mind and spirit. His breakthroughs have helped millions lead more successful lives and achieve true happiness.

Ovwrall

I find dianetics fascinating, but after reading this book I would not be confident as you are told a few times to perform rhis prooces on a patient as the wrong word or phrase could causebdxientolgt.

I actually feel dumber from listening to this book

Worryingly focused on abortion and relationship violence. Was just white noise in the background at the end

Excellent study of the human mind.

Dianetics, the modern science of mental health, is probably the most important book written on the human mind ever.
It uses analogies in describing how the mind works, and gives anecdotal accounts of actual events that cause pain and stress. The therapy is not for the faint hearted. It requires commitment and the ability to confront absolutely anything. The benefits of therapy are unlimited.
I know that for some people Dianetics is nonsense. They don't get it at all. That's ok, each to their own. Another mans junk is another mans gold.
But, just try it. What is true for you, is true for you. You may like it.

The poor performance of the reader

I was curious about Dianetics and found it here on Audible. However the reading is monotonous and for me incomprehensible, you do not feel a connection between the reader and the content at all.
The content I believe is still of my interest and I will therefore return the audiobook and get a physical book or Kindle version of Dianetics instead. This is the first title I return due to poor performance and I have over 300 titles in my library. My recommendations is therefore stay clear of the audiobook and get a hard copy instead

Brilliant

The book gives a different perspective on handling the mind and what inhibits an individual. I’ve seen results in comparison to other therapies out there and only sharing my view. If you’re mind is closed you’ll probably not grasp the point.
