ANNOUNCING THE AVATAR AWARD


Avatar Award



The Åvatar Award (ÅÅ) is an award given to spiritual resources of exceptional quality and clarity. It is given to those writers, authors, musicians, etc. who have
displayed excellence, clarity, and a non-compromising stance when assisting in humanity's spiritual evolution and awakening. The award is presented by
Avatar publications, and in association with "ALL THINGS THAT MATTER," a blog devoted to exploring issues that confront today's society. The selection committee is comprised of experts in the field of spiritual evolution including authors, publisher's, and academic professionals.

Awards are given in several major categories including music, blocks, articles (general public, academic), and books. Blog awards are given annually and represent continued excellence in posts that repeatedly offer insights, help, and inspiration to readers. Book awards are given annually to those authors who have provided readers with new insights, guidance, and inspiration with respect to personal transformation and global spiritual awakening. Articles (general public) are awarded quarterly to those works that represent breakthroughs in thought, provide superlative inspiration, offer easy to use guidance, and which are written with a high level of clarity and excellence. Articles (academic) are awarded to those articles that are groundbreaking in thought and scope, open new doors of academic pursuit, and which maintain a high degree of academic excellence.

Award recipients can display the award logo on their site, book, or article.
Articles will be posted and archived on the Avatar Award home page. Recipients will be given the opportunity to be a guest and present their thoughts on internet radio.
