As the jacket says, "You can have it all by shifting the way you see yourself and your life." The book gives great exercises for operationalizing Advaita as "a way of shifting perception and coming back to the awareness that precedes thinking."

Krishnamurdi  Krishnamurti was one of Jim's most important influences.
Jean 
Klein 
Jean Klein was Jim's main spiritual mentor. He taught Jim to never call himself a "teacher" – his focus was solely on pointing us back to the truth, to the teacher within. Jean was an early influence on Suzanne, as well.
Ramana

"The only thing that keeps us from realization
is the belief that we are not realized."
Ramana Maharishi
David

SPEAK YOUR MIND



"A coalition already exists in spirit. It is coming together now in the social context by the attraction of its unconventional intelligence and compassionate form of high-mindedness. This natural coalition is drawn together by the recognition that the elevation of consciousness is our fundamental life work. This is a genuinely democratic, self-organizing force, flowing through persons of all descriptions. This force does not flourish as any highly structured form. It is not an institution or a foundation or a non-profit company or anything conventionally named. This coalition is a living organism – natural, wild, free. It is made up of individuals devoted to serving the world and developing themselves as finely tuned instruments of service. They learn to gather in the energy of will-to-good, from which authentic goodwill flows out subtly to the entire world."     -Lex Hixon-

Every Mighty Companions endeavor is done in the spirit of this coalescing so eloquently articulated by our dear friend Lex. We would like to hear your thoughts, which will be considered for posting on this page.


VIEWER/LISTENER COMMENTS:

"I have just listened to your conversation with Jim Dreaver. Yes. Yes. Yes. A beautiful conversation. Thank you. It woke me up. Contemplating how the world wide web has emerged from human consciousness (via computer technology) and is re-manifesting that consciousness in cyberspace, enriching it, and likely to produce entirely new technologies that may again manifest consciousness etc... Extrapolating this sequence backwards in time, suddenly it seems very clear that matter itself unfurls from consciousness. Is matter analogous with technology, and space with consciousness?"
