Hi Jon, and welcome.

The answer to your question rather depends on what experience you have with Scientology or similar practices, and what experience you have with an e-meter or equivalent.

I have taken a few courses in Scientology, Up and Downs and Basics. I want to be clear and don't know how to do it. I do know it is easier with the e meter. Don't want to pay $10k to do it in an Org. I ordered a e meter off ebay and got E METER ESSENTIALS 1961 : CLEARING SERIES VOLUME I from amazon. Any help would do.

Sorry, there's no such thing as "Clear". You are wasting your time.
$10,000 at an Org? Forget it! More like $250,000 for them to give
you a "cert" declaring you "Clear". A couple months later they will
revoke the "cert" and say due to "new discoveries" you aren't Clear
after all..but for another $250,000 they can get you really, truely, actually
Clear. Its a scam.

Thanks for answering my question. I strongly suggest you put the meter aside for now. In expert hands, it may be of help to you. For a novice, it will really, as in REALLY, get in the way of any auditing you try to do by yourself. What will happen is that your attention will dive into the meter and the various needle motions (although I would guess the most common one you see is a tight needle with the needle slowly rising — moving to the left), and tend to stay there. The Scientology definition of "In-session" includes attention on one's case, and if your attention is mainly on the meter it isn't on your case.

A beginning auditor's attention is on the meter and the procedures and admin and all (mostly the meter), and he has very little left over for the person he is auditing. Experience and familiarity frees up his attention and he has more and more left over for the person he's auditing.

Trying to do it all from scratch, from books or the internet, and auditing yourself at the same time, *with a meter*, is pretty much impossible. Too much is new.

A good place to start is Ken Ogger's Self-Clearing Manual. Here's a link to it: http://www.freezoneearth.org/pilot/self/index.htm

I think PaulsRobot (links in my signature) is pretty good, but I am biased, of course.

I wouldn't think of trying to use a meter until you've done hundreds of hours of auditing. And even then, it's not necessarily a good idea. I don't use a meter when I audit. There are some threads on ESMB concerning metering and suggestibility that explain why it's often not a good idea.

Self Analysis by Hubbard is a good entry level one. You can do the processes unmetered.

Handbook for Preclears is a bit more advanced.

While browsing through my collection of old magazines, I came across an
interesting article:

Newsweek March 23, 1942 page 65
(Science Column)

Amateur Psychiatry

"To the many laymen who mistakenly regard psychoanalysis as withchcraft,
Dr. Karen Horney, dean of the American Institure of Pscyhoanalysis, last week
addressed a new book, 'Self Analysis'......She maintained that, to some
extent at least, anyone can be his own psychiatrist"

....
"As outlined by the author, self-analysis first involves the well-known
'free association' technique of letting all kinds of thoughts run unhindered
through the mind......And the real work comes with attempts to select
from the hodgepodge of thoughts the significant material-peculiar impressions,
recurring themes, and memories that arouse particularly strong emotions".......

"(Self Analysis, By Dr. Karen Horney, 309 pages, Index. Norton, New York, $3)"

Anyone think ole El Ron might , just by chance, have read the March 23,
1942 edition of Newsweek, saw the article and perhaps then ran down to his local bookstore and bought a copy of Self Analysis for $3? Just a Co-Incicence that some years later he "authored" a book of the same title dealing with the same subject?

Welcome to ESMB, Treetop,

Well, this manual, by Hank Levin, came to mind:

http://clearingtech.net/2011/01/solo-clearing-manual

As some background on the subject of Clear (noun), and Clearing (verb), here's a 1991 article by David Mayo, ex-Scientologist, Class 12, and former Senior C/S International:

Suggest also looking over this section of ESMB:

Hi Jon. Beware the rabbit hole. Personally, I have found that long walks in forest, beach or meadow provided just as much benefit as I ever gained from auditing. Perhaps even more so in the long run.

As an auditor, I found the e-meter to be a distraction and often led down a wrong path.

The main benefit to auditing, in my experience, came from the undivided attention of someone listening without judgement. I don't believe that can be obtained in solo auditing.

But good luck to you all the same. If at any time you start to feel like your brain is a hamster wheel, it's totally OK to stop it and get off. Go outside and get some fresh air.
