Summary

Man’s Relentless Search - Russian Edition

What does the other fellow consist of? What is that other fellow?
Well, the philosopher had to answer that question. And it’s the one
question he never answered satisfactorily. And it’s the one question that’s
been answered satisfactorily in Scientology. — L. Ron Hubbard

An extraordinary drama played out across thousands of years, Man’s
long search to penetrate the mystery of “the other fellow”—and
thereby to know himself—found its expression not only in
philosophy and religion, but even in war and conquest.

Yet in spite of, or perhaps because of, the crucial intensity of this quest, its
continuing failure down the centuries accumulated ever?deepening problems for
Man. Hence, in desperation, he eventually abandoned the search entirely—in 1879,
to be precise. And into the vacuum of its failure there stepped a new and deadly
theory. Specifically, that “the other fellow” is no more than an aggregate of brain,
blood and sinew, a stimulus?response mechanism that reacts to but is incapable
of mastering its environment. As this concept gained strength, so declined the
respect shown each individual and, with it, the sense of honor and purpose
of Man as a whole.

In interpreting this remarkable story, Ron not only explains why
Man’s epic search met with failure for so long, he reveals the missing
element that has finally brought success and solved the mystery of “the
other fellow.” For today, one can indeed know the truth about one’s
fellow human beings and, hence, come to understand oneself.
And what that knowledge foretells for both the individual
and Mankind is not only the recovery of respect, honor
and purpose, but a level of success that exceeds anything
previously attainable.
