In computer talk it is the picture you choose to represent yourself. However, this is also true:
In Hindu philosophy, an avatar, avatara or avatarim (Sanskrit: à¤
वतार, IAST: avatÄra), most commonly refers to the incarnation (bodily manifestation) of a higher being (deva), or the Supreme Being (God) onto planet Earth. The Sanskrit word avatÄra- literally means "descent" and usually implies a deliberate descent into lower realms of existence for special purposes. The term is used primarily in Hinduism, for incarnations of Vishnu whom many Hindus worship as God. The Dasavatara (see below) are ten particular "great" incarnations of Vishnu.
