Meditation as Remembering, Not Escaping

Start Your Transformation Now 

In this episode of The Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim continues his Shaman’s Tips for an Amazing 2026 series with Part 4, diving even deeper into Don Javier’s teachings about silence, power, and divine connection. Building on previous insights, Jim unpacks how the endless “noise” in our inner and outer world separates us from hearing divine guidance—and how true transformation begins when that noise stops. 

Drawing from a 2024 conversation with Don Javier, Jim explains how constant internal dialogue, emotional reactions, and pity masquerading as compassion drain our energy and block our awareness. He reveals why meditation isn’t an escape, but a return to truth—and how stillness is the warrior’s gateway to the infinite. Through these profound lessons, Jim invites listeners to step out of the illusions of mind chatter and into luminous presence. 

If you’re ready to reclaim your awareness, quiet the inner noise, and reconnect with your higher consciousness, this episode will show you how silence itself can become your most powerful spiritual practice. 

What You’ll Discover in This Episode: 

• Escaping the prison of noise (03:24): Jim shares Don Javier’s wisdom on how every thought, judgment, and reaction pulls you out of divine awareness—and how silence restores peace. 

• The truth about empathy (12:59): Learn how true empathy is unity, not emotion, and why ordinary compassion often hides self-importance and ego. 

• Pity vs. Love (15:50): Discover why pity is not love but disguised ego—and how real compassion is silent, radiant presence. 

• Becoming love itself (18:41): Jim reflects on Don Javier’s reminder that awakened beings don’t send love—they are love, and that vibration transforms everything effortlessly. 

• Meditation and stillness as the path of power (21:32): Find out why meditation isn’t an escape but the art of “stopping the world,” allowing reality to become fluid, luminous, and alive. 

• Living fully in the present (24:26): Explore why the past is smoke, the future a mirage, and how only the present moment holds true power and connection with the divine. 

Listen, apply, and enjoy! 

Transformational Takeaway 

Noise is the great thief of power. Every moment you silence your mind, you strengthen your link with the infinite. The path of mastery begins with stillness—because silence is not emptiness; it’s the space where divine mind speaks. Guard your awareness like sacred fire, and enter 2026 grounded in peace, clarity, and luminous presence.
