Scientology is an applied religious philosophy dealing with the study of knowledge, which, through the application of its technology, can bring about desirable changes in the conditions of life.

     The term Scientology is taken from the Latin word scio (knowing in the fullest sense of the word) and the Greek word logos (study of). In itself the word means literally knowing how to know.

     Scientology is wisdom in the tradition of ten thousand years of search in Asia and Western civilization. It is the study and handling of the spirit in relationship to itself, universes and other life.
