The mission of Avatar in the world is to catalyze the integration of belief systems. When we perceive that the only difference between us is our beliefs and that beliefs can be created or discreated with ease, the right and wrong game will wind down, a co-create game will unfold, and world peace will ensue.

The Role of Spiritual Teachers
When discussing the role of a spiritual teacher we need to make a distinction right at the start between a message bearer and spiritual teacher.

The message bearer's prime concern is to communicate word lessons. The principle role of a spiritual teacher has nothing to do with a message. No word lessons. What then? World lessons!

Let's imagine for a minute that the higher self is not just an abstract idea but that it really exists as a subtle inner beingness. Let's also imagine that the day-to-day ego-self is so noisy with memories, thinking, fears and desires that it drowns out the higher self.

The spiritual teacher awakens the inner beingness in you and keeps it awake until it can stay aware. There's really no message in this; it's more of a matching of vibration and attitude.

The spiritual teacher fills in for your higher self until it awakens. The teacher observes you with compassionate acceptance. This attitude of the personal spiritual teacher creates an echo in your subtle inner beingness and, after a time, you begin to perceive your ego-self with the same compassionate acceptance and understanding as the spiritual teacher does. You are transformed. Your ego-self relaxes and disappears. This is not a transformation that you can think your way through. It is experienced. The path of Avatar is structured so everyone can experience this transformation.
