The Minus Grades are listed from bottom to top. One goes over each by oneself or with a freind (a good idea).
To erase your problem you first talk about it. Thus we have Verbal Tech Release, Minus Grade Zero.
After you talk about it, you have a problem. What is Ethics going to do? Thus we have Minus Grade One, Ethics Release. Now you can attack -- but what, and how?
Viewpoints are constrained by overts such as being on staff. So we have Minus Grade Two, Viewpoint Release.
You now have freedom of ideas. You have felt this confusion before, and the Stable Datum was the Org. They would keep it until you figured it out. So, releasing the fear of change, there is Minus Grade Three, Org Release.
Rebellion against Orgs has occurred before. However, the computation is then, "Ron plus you equals O.T." From here, a fountainhead of Service Facs issues forth, making auditors, people, scholars, etc. wrong. So we have LRH Release as Minus Grade Four.
But if Ron is --- as Ron is --- how is one to get auditing? So we have Minus Grade Five, Auditing Release.
A week, or a year, without auditing, okay, but what about the eventual future? Thus the crowning Minus Grade, Six, Bridge Release.
Each Grade is listed with a Public EP and a Confidential EP. You are welcome to both. The Public EP is easier to talk about to those who don't have it. The Confidential EP is the way you can only see it when you've got it.
