Hi Harry,
I had the opportunity to do an Introductory Mini- Course at a Unity Church here in Florida on the Saturday before the International Avatar Course began.
25 members of the church showed up. 8 other masters came from miles away to help out. Still there were too many people without Masters when it came time for the Transparent Belief exercise. Masters from around the U.S. were put "on call" and we put them on cell phones to work the exercise on the phone.
It was neat to see the power of the Sangha, the family. As a result three board members came to the course. One is already signed up for the Masters Course and another went home to get his wife, so she begins the ReSurfacing Course tomorrow.
All three students are talking about how to get every member of the church to take the course. Powerful Stuff!! I'm happy to be part of it! Thanks!

Harry,
I have learned psychology, religion and fortune telling. I thought about and explored them for 15 years. I feel that Avatar is the last one for solving issues for a long time. Harry, thank you for creating this great system. I really appreciate this miracle and the connections.

My experience began on a horse farm in Clarksburg, Maryland, situated on a rise overlooking distant mountains and catching some chilly April winds. It belonged to one of my fellow students in this small class of five. Our teachers, Ron and Linda, took us through simple introductory exercises. The pace was exceedingly relaxed, except for my impatience to get into “the good stuff.” We learned about the mechanics of consciousness conceptually, and then walked the grounds to exercise our new-found knowledge experientially.
The word Avatar means, according to the Hindu religion, “a deity who voluntarily assumes physical form to participate in creation.” Pretty heady stuff. The Avatar Course is a series of techniques created by a guy named Harry Palmer, the most unassuming and humorous writer about higher consciousness I’ve ever encountered. Very refreshing—no talk of astral bodies, joining with the Divine, salvation, nor a call to find this world lacking and leave it behind through inner escapism. Harry has discovered key aspects about the mechanics of consciousness and teaches it through the course, allowing one to “create the reality you prefer,” in his words. I’d read his stuff for years, and it had always had a real solid feel to it. So I finally took the course.
We learned how to create new beliefs and shed old beliefs that might work against what we want (this is why affirmations alone often don’t work—underlying, conflicting beliefs persist at a deeper level and counteract the new belief.)
About day 3 of the course a mammoth weight dissolved that I’d been carrying around for a very long time. What were its psychological contents and mythic roots?
I don’t know. It was gone. That’s what mattered. And, that’s the beauty of Avatar—one need not analyze and understand every thread of a tangle to undo the knots.
That night, I came home to my family a different man.
And, from that week I spent absorbing the Avatar techniques, I gained a set of tools that I use daily. They really do the trick for clearing my thinking, attuning my awareness, and creating what I want. Good stuff.

Coming home from Wizards after 2 weeks of "looking inward", to be honest, was a bit scary. I was afraid because I figured out through my studies that I was indeed living a dual life back home. One part of me was still attached to the past, the life of dysfunctional relationships and addictions. The other part of me wants to live deliberately and create a life filled with joy and happiness. Each day that I spent looking inward, I found some missing piece to the puzzle. I am happy to report, I was able to turn myself around, let the past go and move forward on my path to enlightenment.
Still, coming home, I felt the draw to go back to the "old" dual life once more. This time however, I feel secure in myself and am able to detach from the past. In order to keep moving forward I have to show-up and take responsibility. I have to surrender to my higher power and Let Go and Let God.
I am guided now by the light and the compassion I have for life. I thank my wonderful husband for all his support, Harry Palmer for his incredible materials and praise God that I have found a solid road to walk on.
Have a blessed day,

I had a conscious realization every time I did anything in Avatar that the results were always much more than I expected or anticipated. I never was disappointed, it wasn't even part of this question how great it was, and it was always big. And Wizards has proven to be the same pattern.
For us now the Sikh lifestyle and the yoga meditation are very much aligned with the Avatar, it's all a way to access the spirit and it's a way to access your source, and it's a way to deeply experience. It's all very experiential; the yoga is very experiential, the Sikh practice is very experiential, so it's no misalignment with the Avatar at all.
