This book - Creation of Human Ability has this code.
There is such a thing as honour. In a
western
society such as ours, it seems to play little on our decisions. In
Eastern countries, particularly Japan, honour is an all embracing
consideration. It does exist. People die to preserve it.
Mr. L. Ron Hubbard introduced the Code
of
Honour for the first time in November 1954. He wrote the
following
about it:
"No
one expects the Code of honour to be closely and tightly followed.
"An
ethical code cannot be enforced. Any effort to enforce the Code of
Honour would bring it into the level of a moral code. It cannot be
enforced simply because it is a way of life which can exist as a way of
life only as long as it is not enforced. Any other use but
self-determined use of the Code of Honour would, as any Scientologist
could quickly see, produce a deterioration in a person. Therefore its
use is a luxury use, and which is done solely on self-determined
action, providing one sees eye to eye with the Code of Honour.
"If you
believed man was actually worthy enough to be granted by you sufficient
stature so as to permit you to exercise gladly the Code of Honour, I
can guarantee that you would be a happy person. And if you found an
occasional miscreant falling away from the best standards you have
developed, you yet did not turn away from the rest of man, and if you
discovered yourself betrayed by those you were seeking to defend and
yet did not then experience a complete reversal of opinion about your
fellow man, there would be no dwindling spiral for you.
"The only difference between a
paradise on earth
and a hell on Earth is whether or not you believe your fellow man
worthy of receiving from you the friendship and devotion called for in
the Code of Honour."
