In Dianetics and Scientology, Clear is stated to be a condition in which a person is free of unwanted influences of past memories, unwanted emotions or painful traumas which are not present in real time. A person in this condition, then referred to as a "Clear", would be a person cleared of those negative influences. Such a person is said to be "at cause over" (in control of) their "mental energy" (their thoughts), and able to think clearly even when faced with the very situation which in earlier times caused them grave difficulty. L. Ron Hubbard took the word from the idea of an adding machine and clearing an adding machine of previous actions on it.
Dianetics states that a person's consciousness is influenced by the involuntary responses of the reactive mind. Achieving the state of Clear signifies a person has overcome the reactive mind and is in complete command of their mind. According to Hubbard:
Hubbard suggested that the thetan (a person's soul) invents its own reactive mind, but is not Clear until realising this for oneself.
In Dianetics, L. Ron Hubbard, founder of Scientology, states that becoming Clear strengthens a person's native individuality and creativity and a Clear is free with his emotions.
In The State Of Clear, Hubbard defines clear as:
Hubbard states that merely knowing what the cognition is does not have the effect of realising it for oneself:
After attaining the state of Clear, a person may go on to study the Operating Thetan levels, in which the ability to operate outside the body via exteriorization becomes commonplace.
Beyond that comes "Cleared Theta Clear", which Hubbard describes this way:
"A thetan who is completely rehabilitated and can do everything a thetan should do, such as move MEST and control others from a distance, or create his own universe; a person who is able to create his own universe or, living in the MEST universe is able to create illusions perceivable by others at will, to handle mest universe objects without mechanical means and to have and feel no need of bodies or even the MEST universe to keep himself and his friends interested in existence".
