No, of course not. I'm saying that if you have miraculous brain-fixing techniques and deploy them as effectively as you know how to on yourself for years, then after those years you should surely (1) be conspicuously much happier / better adjusted / more rational / more productive than everyone else, and (2) not still need fixing all the time.
Now, of course, I don't know for sure that Philip isn't Winning much more than all the rest of us who haven't become Clear by getting rid of our body thetans -- oh, excuse me, wrong form of miraculous psychological fixing -- so maybe it's just natural cynicism that makes me doubt it. Philip, what say you? Is your brain much better than the rest of ours now?
Ah, that makes sense.
I think my only response to what you said is that some things need fixing forever since the perfect picture is being viewed from a fuzzy perspective. Personally, I doubt that the self-improvement ladder ever ends.
But I understand and concede the point.
