Avatar In Reno

Dear Miken,

We had the most awesome course yet! We are amazed and in awe at the level of commitment to being Avatars these teens had.

They became a team that supported each other and recognized the cruelty of being judged and judging others. Self Deception Signals allowed for some realizations that awoke the teens to a new way of being. They saw the power in being honest and recognized how their judgment was more about themselves than the people they were being critical of. They were inspired and ready to take responsibility for what they have been blaming on others. They wanted to be in control of their feelings, and it was precious and sweet to be present with their creating this. After realizing that they can create what they are feeling, they decided to create realities like: I let others know myself, I am responsible for what I feel, I like myself, I always do my best. It was a profound experience to watch children this age take charge of what they experience in life.

Many of the teens are now working on attending The Master Course so they can come back and deliver Avatar to their friends next summer. They want the people they love to have what they now have: the ability to create peace of mind while learning about life.
We are so grateful for the opportunity and the honor of delivering Avatar to these precious teenagers. They are our planet’s future, and we got to watch the magic as they realized it.

Much love,

The Reno Delivery Team

 

From the students...

Incredible. I have never had such a feeling of accomplishment. I believe this is the best thing I could have ever done for myself. I feel at such peace and so humble. I feel like everyone is my friend. Section III helped me identify and confront my fears, beliefs and experiences so I could get over them and move on with my life. It also gave me the gift of an incredible amount of power to deal with things I my future. I feel like I can do anything now. I know I can do anything, and I know how to get there. What a truly amazing feeling.

The new freedom and ability to focus and direct my attention is so helpful. I use it every day. Young people who can get hold of and use these tools could create something that is nothing short of miraculous.

I never realized how many doubts I had about myself until I experienced the free feeling of not having them. It has opened new windows to my art. I cleared some old cobwebs from my wall, and I learned how to see my life from all new perspectives. With the love and compassion of some wonderful Avatar Masters I was able to walk out the door into a new, happier, deliberate life.
I feel so free, so light and so enlightened now. There are no words to describe.

I was able to find out real reasons and beliefs behind problems in my life. After realizing these things, I was also given the tools needed to start changing my life. These tools also help me to focus my attention better and start taking charge of my own destiny.

ReSurfacing helped me to realize how in control I am. I control everything I think and do. I learned how to release fixed attention. I learned where my extreme fear of water and strangers came from and how to fix those things. I also learned how to let go of guilt I had been holding onto and how to have compassion for everyone, even my enemies.

This releases so much stress and helps me put attention on the things that are positive instead of negative. It gives me the will to want to be happy with myself.
I have been given a chance to take charge of my life. In the past I would blame other people, and now I can decide how I want to feel. I have the power to create my feelings. This is a wonderful class. It truly changed my life. Thank you all for helping me see.

I think Section II was useful for me because it taught me how to feel something. Now I can have it go away instead of not wanting to feel something and having it stay around forever. I learned how to discreate bad ideas and thoughts and feelings so I don’t have to live with having a bad idea haunt me and get in the way of what I want to be like.

You come to change your life. You find what’s upsetting or bothering you the most. You then find out that what causes your large problems is the same as the small, and you are able to discover how to get rid of all your problems.
During this course I’ve been able to completely change myself for the better. I’m a completely confident person instead of an insecure one. I’ve also given myself the ability to love and be loved. This course helped me more than I’d have imagined in my wildest dreams.
