2. a person who is hatted can control his post. If he can control his post he can hold his position in space-in short, his location. And this is power. When a person is uncertain, he cannot control his position. He feels weak. He goes slow. (HCO PL 23 Jul 72)

3. law: the power of a thetan stems from his ability to hold a position in space. This is quite true. In Scientology 8-80 the base of the motor is discussed. It holds two terminals in fixed positions. Because they are so fixed, power can be generated. If a thetan can hold a position or location in space he can generate power. If he cannot, he cannot generate power and will be weak. (HCO PL 29 Jul 71)

4. power is proportional to the speed of particle flow external and internal in an organization. (FO 747)

5. the rapidity of particle flow alone determines power. (HCO PL 16 Apr 65RA III)

6. power process(es) (LRH ED 103 INT)

7. the amount of work which can be accomplished in a unit of time, or the amount of force which can be applied in a unit of time. Power has the connotation of being potential. Power does not necessarily mean application of it . (SH Spec 83, 6612C06)
