Scientology

Scientology is a religious movement founded by L. Ron Hubbard in the early 1950s, centered on spiritual development and self-improvement through specific practices and beliefs. It teaches that humans are immortal spiritual beings called Thetans, which have become trapped in physical bodies, and aims to free them through a process called auditing. This involves counseling sessions to uncover and address past traumas, both past and present. Scientology offers a structured hierarchy, spiritual courses, and practices designed to enhance personal insight, ethical conduct, and spiritual freedom. Its beliefs and practices have been both influential and controversial worldwide.
