- The Purification Rundown is a detoxification program involving the use of saunas, vitamins, and consuming oils, far in excess of what mainstream medicine considers safe levels.[1]
- The Introspection Rundown is a procedure that is intended to handle a psychotic break or complete mental breakdown. This rundown made worldwide headlines during the investigation of Lisa McPherson's death at the Fort Harrison Hotel.
- The Clear Certainty Rundown is a procedure in which the state of Clear is "validated and rehabilitated". Usually a short action of only a few hours. [1] This Rundown was introduced in 1985. One part of the Clear Certainty Rundown that has caused some controversy inside and outside the Church is that you cannot get past the question "Do you believe in demons, ghosts...", unless you agree that they do not exist. This contradicts reports that the reality of demons is an important part of Scientology's higher Operating Thetan levels,[2] and has been remarked on by Hubbard in several lectures, including Para-Scientology. [3]
- The Super Power Rundown is described in the Dianetics and Scientology Technical Dictionary as "a super fantastic, but confidential series of rundowns that can be done on anybody whether Dn Clear or not that puts the person into fantastic shape unleashing Super Power of a thetan. This means that puts Scientologists into a new realm of ability enabling them to create a new world."[4] The Super Power Building is currently under construction in Clearwater, Florida for the specific purpose of administering this rundown.
