While Clear is a new state for man, The Bridge* leads him to even greater heights of spiritual freedom. Above Clear are the Operating Thetan (OT) Levels. The thetan is the immortal spiritual being, the individual himself, not his body or mind or anything else. It is not something he has, but what he is, a fact that becomes abundantly clear on these upper levels. The goal of Clear is to remove from one's existence those things which are not part of his inherent spiritual self. The goal of Operating Thetan is to overcome the travails of existence and regain the certainty and abilities of one's native spiritual beingness. At this level one knows that he is separate and apart from such material things as physical form or the physical universe.
Auditing at any level is an incomparable experience, its full description well beyond the scope of this site. However, imagine something that has been troubling you all of your life — some feeling or attitude or experience. Then imagine sitting with an auditor and being asked an exact question — the right question — that enables you to suddenly, instantly see the truth of this situation, the real source of it.
This is what auditing is, and the result is revelatory — tremendous relief, understanding, a sense of freedom, the ability to see everything more clearly, an increased awareness. It is almost magical. And it is essentially because of this spiritual transformation that is experienced by someone somewhere in the world every minute of every day that Scientology has grown as rapidly as it has.
Bridge* = The broad path the Scientologist follows through auditing and the study of Scientology materials is known as The Bridge. This embodies an ancient concept — a long-envisioned route across a chasm between man's present state and vastly higher levels of awareness.
