Cruise’s odd Scientology ritual revealed

A new book reveals that Tom Cruise spent three weeks talking to books.

Melbourne: A new book has revealed that Tom Cruise spent three weeks talking to books, bottles and door knobs, as part of Scientology ritual. Marc Headley, who has an experience of 15 years in the Church of Scientology, has claimed in his book ‘Blown for Good,’ that he joined the ‘Top Gun’ star in his Upper Indoctrination Training Routines, 19 years ago.

"It`s known as the book-and-bottle routine," the Daily Telegraph quoted him as saying. He added: "It was supposed to rehabilitate your ability to control things. And to be controlled." Hedley alleges that he was permitted to work as Cruise’s apprentice since he was trustworthy. He said: "It couldn`t be someone who might run off the next day and tell the National Enquirer that Tom Cruise was telling me to talk to a bottle for the last three weeks.” Headley had earlier worked at Scientology`s formerly secret Southern California headquarters.
