Etymologically speaking, the words "Ziontology" and "Trianetics" are exceedingly perfect neologisms. In fact, these words are the actual true names of what they each intrinsically represent (i.e. this is how one actually referrers to them at Zion).
For a run-down on the etymology of the word “Ziontology”, read near the end of the article at www.ziontology.com/ZiontologyChapter01.html, in the section titled "The Etymology of Ziontology". The short version of that story is that “Ziontology” is the elision of the words "Zion" and "Ontology". But both of these root words have deep meanings themselves, so please do read the entire article for a deeper understanding.
The word “Trianetics” is formed from the elision and simplification of the words "Triality" and "Energetics". Triality is itself a neologism, representing the body/mind/soul triple-reality defined in Church of Ziontology doctrine. Trianetics is the practical application of Ziontological principles in getting your Zetan to Zion. That is yet another rather profound concept, so again, please review http://www.ziontology.com/ to get a better handle on all this.
The etymology of the word "Shambolic", as in "Shambolic Publications", which is a trademark representing the publishing arm of the Church of Ziontology , is formed from the elision of "Shambhala" and "symbolic". Note that the word "Shambolic", with an uppercase 'S', as used here, should not be confused with the British slang term "shambolic", with a lowercase 's'. The word “Shambhala” is a Buddhist term that refers to a mystical realm, which is similar in many respects to the Zion of Ziontology. The word “symbolic”, of course, is the use of textual or iconic representation to convey meaning. So “Shambolic” is a symbolic representation of Zion, or more precisely, Zion's symbolic expression of itself.
