Before I did the course, I felt that my life was being made up everyday.
Now, I know how to live it the way I want it and am able to make tricky
situations simple. I started seeing things from a totally different perspective.
I feel in control of myself, my life and my universe.

I set out to gain some insight into deliberately changing the way I perceive
myself, my relationships and the world around me. I wanted to become cause
rather than effect.
Through the exercises in the ReSurfacing workshop I gained practical tools
for looking at any challenge I have, determining where it comes from and
more importantly, how I can make the changes that I choose for myself.
I gained a perspective of myself as an unlimited being—through actually
experiencing it. I was able to work through two of the most powerful challenges
in my life right now. It has been a liberating and empowering experience.

I did The ReSurfacing Workshop and since then my life has begun to change.
My wife and I did the workshop together. Our family was falling apart. We
have a 16-year-old son and a 12-year-old daughter, and all four of us were
pulling in different directions. We were a family in appearance only. With
everyone doing their own thing there was very little love shared, not much
concern for children growing up and needing attention, appreciation and
large doses of compassion and understanding.
After the one-day course we started to do the Compassion Exercise together,
and we verbalized our appreciation for each other. We did this every day.
Within just a few days there were visible signs of love, caring, understanding,
and there was a lot of hugging. It just turned our lives completely around.
I then signed up for The Avatar Course. My personal life then changed so
much that everywhere I went people remarked how much better I looked. My
wife and children kept commenting about how much I’d changed: from
a man who had so many fears and so much anger to a compassionate man, appreciating
everyone and everything.
Harry, you are the greatest, thank you. It is because of Avatar that I have
changed. Through me my family has been touched, and we are all together
now.
I have taken control of my life. I am now flowing, and I know the direction
that I want to go. I have been able to get rid of so much garbage. I know
now what it is to live deliberately, and I know that lots of exciting things
will be taking place in my life and that of our little family.
My life’s goal is to reach out to other human beings with love and
compassion and spread Avatar and enlightenment after I have completed The
Master Course.
I am happy to be me.

I am very pleased to share some of my personal changes after my initial
introduction to Avatar with ReSurfacing
Basically, I felt a great uplifting feeling during the ReSurfacing course
that I shared with you and Lamar and the others present during this fantastic
journey. I was prepared for a lecture format and a lot of writing and intellectualizing,
much the same as I have experienced in other workshops.
I was so happy that my experience was totally the opposite. I went out into
nature and began divesting myself of all the professional jargon and intellectualizing
conversations (the self-talk I have been so used to in preparing for responding
to the instructor). That didn’t happen.
I began to re-discover myself through the trees, rocks, flowers, birds,
squirrels, ants, clouds, smells, sounds, strangers, the universe. I felt
like that little person that I knew back in my innocence during my early
childhood. It was absolutely beautiful. I had feelings in my stomach, in
my body (which felt many times lighter), in my head, in my eyes. I was rediscovering
the beauty of life—my life that had been ignored for so long. The tears
in my eyes and the lump in my throat were feelings of wonderment and satisfaction.
The greatest feeling was that I wanted more, more, more! And in fact I did
do more. I did the full Avatar course and that was a whole different and
wonderful experience on which I plan to build by going on for the master’s
course.
To those people who are considering ReSurfacing and the one-day course—I
highly encourage you to do it—You will love it and what’s more
you will love yourself for having done it.

My mother called me today. She wanted to tell me about the miracle she
was experiencing.
When I visited her in February, we had many opportunities to talk as we
walked on the Palisades in Santa Monica. One evening the park was deserted
because of the misty fog. We felt that we were in our own protected sanctuary.
The street lights filtered through the palms and gave a private light to
our conversation.
She confided that even with all the therapy she had had that she still couldn’t
let go of the anger and resentment she felt toward her step-mother. (My
mother is eighty-three years old now.)
I listened to her and felt her. I asked if she would like to let all that
go. Her tears were genuine.
I led her through the Compassion Exercise from ReSurfacing After awhile,
we walked on together.
Today she thanked me. She told me that she hasn’t experienced any of
the old resentment since that night.
Thank you AVATAR for this gift.

I am once more taking full responsibility for myself. I realized again
(too well) that all the blame is useless. I write my own script. I am no
longer a victim. The future is bright and exciting.
S.R.
I think what I have gained is a realization that while I place a great
weight on being honest with others, I am not being very honest with myself.
I am also starting to think that what is holding me back is a big fear of
leaving my comfort zone and not being good enough to exist without being
hurt by others or being criticized by them.
I came here with no intention of doing Part Two but during the course I
have changed my mind.
What I have learned:
I don't need to analyze how I feel. It is enough to just feel it.
I don't have to chase my tail to find the happiness in it, but if I just
let it be, it will follow me everywhere.
It is starting to sink in with me just how powerful these exercises are.
Barney
I began the course with the intention of observing the process as a possible
career with a side benefit of personal growth. As the weekend progressed,
I realized I was having many "Ahah's" and became excited about
the tools I could use in my life and forgot all about the career stuff.
The future is bright!
M.M.
I hoped for further clarity, renewed energy and passion. I got it and
some!
Margaret
During this weekend I have experienced courage in order to heighten my
awareness, acknowledge my beliefs and see how they can impede or help my
life.
I gained many insights during this time that are most useful.
I am feeling more aligned and peaceful within myself. I have a sense of
calmness as I have learned how to shift my attention from different areas
of my life.
Michelle
The more I do ReSurfacing , the more insights and "aha's" I
have at different levels of awareness. I not only do Avatar, I live it!
Anastacia
I set out to unblock unhealthy patterns in my life; to grow and to release
emotional baggage.
Through the ReSurfacing exercises I expanded my awareness to achieve what
I set out to do.
I believe I'm in the right place at the right time.
Mission accomplished!
Madeleine
This weekend I have experienced a number of awakenings or "Aha"
experiences as I began to see through some of my limiting thought patterns
and beliefs that have stood between me and success. In particular, in the
"Releasing Fixed Attention" exercise, I finally felt (rather than
intellectualized) how something that I was experiencing as a situation I
want to change, was actually CREATED BY ME! Somehow this feels like a very
liberating first step!
Glen
I came needing some realignment and to elevate myself back into the perspective
of the creator of my reality. I experienced stress release, feeling more
empowered, clarity on areas of my life that needed some attention. I created
a higher purpose goal that encompassed all I have a passion for and love-something
I've been attempting to achieve for some time.

When I first received the Avatar Journal, I noted how happy everyone in
the pictures looked-veritably glowing! I wanted to be THAT! I read the material,
shared them with my husband, and we decided to send for the books. They
arrived, we read them and got very excited about taking the course. Here
we are and here we were. We each wanted to learn to deal with our separate
issues. We actually learned to deal with ALL or ANY issue IMMEDIATELY! Mission
accomplished!
Linda
In the last 2 days I have developed a broader and deeper understanding
of my own existence, my reason for being, and the belief that I am the master
of my own destiny.
I have been heartened by the fact that many Avatar principles were and are
part of my life, and inspired by the revelations that are my new life beliefs,
and the power I have at my disposal.
Rob
I realized goals which I can achieve and shared feelings with the other
members and discovered answers which I feel I would never have achieved
on my own. I feel more certain things are sure to improve in my life. I
came feeling confused and depressed about an issue (in my life). I left
feeling better and when I thought about the problem I no longer had those
feelings.
Kirsty
I set out to be in charge of my life by learning to create personal freedom
and grow spiritually. I actually learned to be responsible for my actions,
thoughts and life. I became aware of my thoughts and transparent beliefs.
Lynette
Thank you for facilitating such enlightening awareness! As I have become
aware of my beliefs, intentions and attention, I have shifted and the world
has shifted with me!
Bill
I learned about my sabotaging behavior. Not feeling good enough has effected
every area of my life. I didn't know what I wanted. I felt unsafe all the
time. I felt angry.
I learned I was creating this. I saw it myself. I now have an idea of what
I wasn't and how to get there and how to deal with limiting beliefs. THANK
YOU!
Irene
I wanted to get in touch with some of my beliefs that were holding me
back and blocking me.
I learned about beliefs, attention, how they can be changed-attention-focus
on what I want to accomplish and create the beliefs that I want to have,
not what I think others want of me.
Heather
Now I know better than I ever did before that I alone am responsible for
my destiny/life/experiences. No longer can I point my finger at anyone or
anything out there. It's totally up to me. So here I go!
Phyllis
I feel I have a greater understanding about what I need to do to achieve
my goal. This ReSurfacing has been very beneficial in giving me positive
ways to improve my health and quality of life.
Shirley
I had a great time. Very challenging-personally. Experienced shifts and
some alignment of goals and mechanisms for achieving them. The doing is
now up to me. I can go as far as I choose. There is a lot to fit in in 2
days; my brain aches, but not in pain. Will now take time to soak up many
of the insights and ideas.
