Talk:E-meters, partial history
Postscript by original author
When I wrote this, I found Scientolipedia a bit of a jungle, and had not discovered all of what was already on it (I have not yet). I did not realise that Dave had written in November 2013 the article I have now refered to at the end of this one. It seems to me that at some point, when we get more contributors, some one will amalgamate the two articles, or make a better division about what is relevant to a person seeking to obtain a meter2. Hubbard Electrometer. An electronic instrument for measuring mental state and change of state in individuals, as an aid to precision and speed in auditing. The E-meter is not intended or effective for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of any disease. (Scn AD)...more

I was also a little vitriolic when I wrote the article, about the e-meter2. Hubbard Electrometer.

I recently had successes with distant auditingThe application of Scientology processes and procedures to someone by a trained auditor.

(Dianetics & Scientology Technical Dictionary (C) 1975) better "because you could better see the preclear1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life.

(HCOB 5 Apr 69) 3. one who is discovering things about himself and who is becoming clearer. (HCO PL 21 Aug 63) ''Abbr.'' PC's indicators" when I realised with horror that I was advocating a via to observing the preclear1. a person who, through Scientology processing, is finding out more about himself and life. (The Phoenix Lectures, p. 20) 2. a spiritual being who is now on the road to becoming Clear, hence preclear.

All the stuff I have put on Scientolipedia is liable to be imperfect and I therefore welcome the possibility of many reading it, and when they see something they can express better (ignoring my English spelling) or have found additional data, create a log in and clarify and contribute to the communities well of knowledge of Scientology (the good side of the coin).

The above is not quite logical, but may cause a pause for thought. Further (perhaps irrelevant) thought is that Hubbard's idea of not "c/sing" in the auditor1. one who listens and computes; a Scn practitioner. 2. one who has been trained in the technology of Scn. An auditor applies standard technology to preclears. 3. a person who through church training becomes skilled in the successful application of Dn and Scn to his family, friends and the public to achieve the ability gained as stated on the Gradation Chart for his class of training...more chair (I guess part of history of techAbbreviation for technology. The methods of application of an art or science as opposed to mere knowledge of the science or art itself. (HCOB 13 Sep 65)) precludes one getting a flash of knowingness (high on the scale) and doing something you got by intuition. Perhaps the not c/sing in the chair was aimed to prevent the occasional auditor1. one who listens and computes; a Scn practitioner. 2. one who has been trained in the technology of Scn. An auditor applies standard technology to preclears. 3. a person who through church training becomes skilled in the successful application of Dn and Scn to his family, friends and the public to achieve the ability gained as stated on the Gradation Chart for his class of training...more transcending Ron!
