If done strictly per the original course and (mostly handwritten) instructions of LRH and C/Sed well, is one of the most embracive OT-Levels of the Bridge. In people who have done it this way I could watch them detaching from the mechanism of having to be on one side of a game. They could step back and could look freely and exerted the freedom to choose a position and furthermore demonstrated an enormous ability to hold that position thereafter.
It handles the mechanism many Clears complained about that they put out an intention or made a decision and some resistance would build up soon or that it would seem to flip in the opposite direction. Corresponding, the 1970 Grade Chart marked as ability gained for OT II: “The ability to project intention.”
In 1968, LRH explained in a confidential lecture of the Class VIII Course, of 25 Sept 1968, “What Standard Tech does” why a thorough doing of this Level is key to cross safely the OT III band of the Bridge.
Unfortunately, since quite a while OT II not delivered in the C of S completely, but is grossly abbreviated in general. It appears that this Level is not used to erase the full material of its subject as it was intended, but is carried to a big win, only, leaving the majority of the material untouched. The FSO promo currently gives a time of two weeks. Knowing that this level contains thousands and thousands of commands to be run, it is completely impossible to do it fully in this little time. People doing it recently in the independent field according to the LRH instructions had huge wins and wins and had to pause for days and in one case for weeks until they could continue again. Just the periods of the wins alone would have exceeded this checksheet time in FSO.
Questioning OTs of the past thirty years about their passage through OT II, I found only three persons who had done longer stretches of auditing on it (one in the mid eighties in AOSH EU, one in the beginning nineties in FSO, and one in FSSO who did it fully. It should be noted that this person did it fully because he himself insisted on doing it per the book.) The vast majority on C of S lines had seen only a tiny glimpse of that Level. The shortest auditing was found with one person who audited only one day for a few hours on it and then was send to attest the completion (AOSH UK, in the beginning nineties). Later, the same person run into vast difficulties on higher Levels. Isolating what was done before difficulties had started discovered “omitted/incomplete OT II”. Going back and getting the omitted steps done, produced (and produces) huge gains, really huge ones!
After some initial training it can be audited at home, competent C/Sing given.
p.s.: One could speculate why or how its application got shortened. In my case I didn't catch the omission because after completing the Theory-Pack I never saw the theory materials again. They were so secret! And so it came that I never compared its instructions with the processes run later. And the not run processes - I never saw them. And so didn't notice they were missing.

Self Analysis (August 1951): Possibly the best introduction to the subjects of Dianetics and Scientology. Self Analysis contains both a series of essays on the basic discoveries Ron had made up to this point in his research as well as an extensive auditing section that a person can do by themselves right at home. The book contains a special version of the Hubbard Chart of Human Evaluation and a series of tests one can do to discover where you're really at. Then, by applying the processes from the second half of the book, one is guided through a path of self-discovery. At the end, you will re-do the tests to confirm your improvement. How good can you get? These techniques have been in use for more than six decades and Ron referred to them again and again throughout his research, stating that the processes here were capable of curing any neurosis.
This is the starting point for anyone wanting auditing. You will be audited by L. Ron Hubbard himself through the pages of this book.
