ABOUT DESTINATION: SCIENTOLOGY, JOHANNESBURG
South Africa's remarkable and
inspiring struggle for freedom is the backdrop of a flourishing
Johannesburg today. Imbued with
the indomitable spirit of "Ubuntu"—the Zulu word for
"humanity"—once dismal, gray industrial zones have been transformed
with the introduction of hip new art galleries, colorful murals,
theaters and museums. At the center of this vibrant cultural
reawakening stands the Church of Scientology Johannesburg.
This episode explores the history of the city, including its
singular distinction as "The Cradle of Humankind"—the place
where humanity started. The episode further touches on Founder
L. Ron Hubbard's history in South
Africa and his efforts to bring to the people of this nation
not only universal suffrage, but spiritual freedom as well. It was
during the period he lived in Johannesburg that he predicted that, "From
Southern Africa will spring the next great civilization on this
planet."
Viewers will also learn how the Church of Scientology is part of
the rich, cultural tapestry of South Africans working together to
improve the Rainbow Nation, as one Church staff member sums up the
spirit and goal of the Johannesburg Church: "To change each and
every being to become better in life."
