THE LEGACY

Today, the Scripture of Scientology comprises tens of millions of words in books and lectures by L. Ron Hubbard. In all, there are more than 120 million copies of L. Ron Hubbard books in circulation.

	“I like to help others, and count it as my greatest pleasure in life to see a person free himself of the shadows which darken his days."—L. Ron Hubbard

And Mr. Hubbard’s legacy extends beyond Scientology per se. His educational discoveries have been used to help millions of children better read, write and comprehend. Hundreds of thousands of men and women have ended their substance abuse or prevented themselves from falling into the trap of abuse through his discoveries in drug rehabilitation. And literally more than 50 million have been reached through his non-religious moral code.

But for Mr. Hubbard, what was important was not acclaim or recognition, but that he achieved his intended aim of helping man “become a better being” by founding the religion of Scientology.
