Scientology
founder L. Ron Hubbard’s 105th birthday was celebrated in Nashville by
Tennessee area Scientologists on March 19, 2016.
This past
weekend, Scientologists from across Middle Tennessee came together at the
Nashville Church of Scientology to celebrate the founder of their religion, L.
Ron Hubbard. During the event, a biographical sketch of his life and legacy was
shown, which featured times of discovery, with his treks to the mysterious
Orient as a young man. These quests literally mapped the boundaries of human
knowledge of 10,000 years.
Born March 13,
1911, L. Ron Hubbard had a varied and exciting life. An International celebration
of what would have been his hundred and fifth birthday was pre-recorded in
Florida and was then shown to parishioners in Tennessee. There were refreshments and even a cake
contest to bring in the festivities locally.
Hubbard’s life
was full of adventure. He was an accomplished pilot, a master mariner, a
photographer, a prolific writer of stories for pulp fiction magazines (which
funded his research into the mind and life) and a Captain in the US Navy during
World War II. Hubbard’s journeys through the Far East and the Caribbean brought
him face to face with many different kinds of people, fueling his drive to
solve the riddles of life and enable all to achieve happiness, spiritual
awareness and success in life. How he
took what he learned from these adventures and arranged this knowledge into
what would become Dianetics and Scientology is available on-line as an
interactive biography at www.lronhubbard.org.
“We celebrate
and honor the wonderful gifts L. Ron Hubbard gave mankind,” said Rev. Brian
Fesler, pastor of the Nashville Church of Scientology. “Mr. Hubbard developed
tools that help all kinds of people.
There are so many appreciative followers, and we have a lot to
celebrate.”
