Humans, from time immemorial, have been looking for answers to the mysteries of life and nature and the universe. Unable to fathom the myriads and riddles of above, they have rested them to be the creations or the acts of the God, the Almighty (idolatry or non-idolatry) and gave credence to their messengers, preachers, priests and which in turn led to the coming of philosophies (although differs greatly between the east and the west but largely it is a field of study of a method of claims, theories, propositions and even the process of inquiry itself), Epistemology (a branch of philosophy that investigates the origin, nature, methods and limits of human knowledge), Ontology (a branch of philosophy that studies the nature of reality, existence or being), and thousand others which primarily deals with study of realities, surrealities and unrealities as conceived by the human feelings of the mind and finally the latest experiment of 'Scientology', trying to answer the human's search for the answers in the western world.

Wikipedia describes," Scientology is a body of teachings and related techniques developed by American science fiction author L Ron Hubbard. Hubbard began Scientology in 1952 as a self-help philosophy, an outgrowth of his earlier self-help system, Dianetics, and later described it as a new religion. He said that it offered an exact methodology to help humans achieve awareness of their spiritual existence across many lifetimes and, simultaneously, to become more effective in the physical world.
