1986

On 24 January 1986, having completed all he set out to do, Mr. Hubbard departed his body. However, he left a wealth of research material yet to be assembled and published, along with instructions as to how this work was to be done. Dedicated Sea Organization staff took up the task of making this legacy of as-yet-unpublished material available.
By the end of 1985, Mr. Hubbard had completed and codified new OT levels all the way through New OT XV. His New Year's message for 1986 included a very special gift for his friends -- the first of these OT Levels, New OT VIII: Truth Revealed. The level was complete, but an ideal space for its delivery was needed -- which was accomplished with the purchase of the ship Freewinds. New OT VIII was released on the Freewinds on 7 June 1988.

In addition to compiling and publishing materials not previously available, a continuing effort has been made to see that the entire legacy of Mr. Hubbard's work is made known -- and easily accessible -- to all the peoples of Earth. To this end a series of projects have been carried out to assemble and publish new editions of his works: books supplemented with glossaries and indexes to make data more easily located and understood; lectures produced using Clearsound technology so that every word can be clearly heard, then released with complete transcripts and glossaries; translated editions of books, films and recorded lectures; and new books and films to quickly communicate the truths of Dianetics and Scientology and how they can be used to improve life. This work has been going forward apace since 1986 and will continue for many years to come.
