Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is the Avatar® course?
It is a straightforward self-development course that does not tell anyone what to believe. It is not a religion or a sect. Rather, it teaches people how their own minds are working so they can become who they truly want to be. It teaches people cutting-edge techniques to manage their own reality, making it one of the most effective courses in the human-potential movement.
How much does the course cost?
The basic weekend workshop, called ReSurfacing® costs $295. Section II of the course, which takes four to five days, costs $500, and Section III of the course, which takes two to four days, costs $1500. (Course prices vary in different countries.) During the course, students are given many hours of personal attention, and any student who is not satisfied after Section II of the course is entitled to a full refund.
When are the courses held?
The ReSurfacing workshops are taught locally on a regular basis. The 9-day course is taught several times a year in the USA and around the world. See schedule.
What are the courses like?
The courses are held in hotel conference facilities. Students connect with a Master who attends the course with them. The hours are 9am-7pm with lunch from 12:30-2. The course consists of a series of readings and exercises that the students do at their own pace, guided by an Avatar Master. Students apply their own topics to each exercise. We create a safe, non-judgmental, relaxed environment for the students to have their own insights and revelations, and learn new skills. Students leave with a totally new ability to create their lives deliberately and effectively handle internal and external challenges.
How does Avatar work?
Avatar provides you with the tools to awaken a greater level of awareness, from which you can deliberately restructure the beliefs that form the patterns in your life. Your own beliefs are actually the most powerful forces that influence your existence. They determine what you perceive and how you perceive it. They influence your thoughts, your expectations, and your actions. They shape your personality. They even affect the outcome of your actions and the way others perceive you and respond to you. Avatar helps you uncover and release unconscious beliefs that can feel like an undertow, constantly pulling us back into states of mind and experiences that cause suffering.
