About Heart Sessions

Hello all. This blog is intended to honor the group meditations initiated by Tom Sawyer, now carried on by friends of his since his passing. Being physically spread out as we are we have agreed to sit down in our own homes at the same clock time, 9pm EST on Sunday nights. We sit for at least 20 minutes, although sitting for longer periods is no problem if you so choose.


There is no specified technique for these meditations. Precisely prescribed actions sometimes become unauthentic and what is meaningful for one person may not be for another. So if you choose to assist you may use a favored technique or listen within, apply self-honesty, and allow growth. There is no political or economic agenda involved. There are no dues or dogma. The essential point is an honest willingness to help.


Each week there is a suggested focus as posted on this blog. We previously had been using an email list but now, through the kind assistance and generous guidance of Barbara Whitfield and Donald Brennan, we have the pleasure of this blog forum. Loving thanks to you both. Comments may be left by clicking the "Leave Comments Here" link below each post.

For Sunday, May 30th, 2010

Hello all, in 1964 the 'Gulf of Tonkin Incident' was used as justification for what became the Vietnam War. It can be argued that everything which occurred in the following 9 years can be traced back to the phrase, "...some kind of discharge" from a North Vietnamese boat, although the nature of the discharge was never determined.

The incident is controversial and research into it now brings up many questions about the desires of the leaders and how the events were 'spun' into providing what they wanted. The beginnings of nearly all wars look uncomfortably alike.

Today the world deals with an incident between North and South Korea. What are the desires of the leaders? Are their thoughts and actions motivated by purely political and industrial concerns? Are they listening for guidance from a Higher Source? We can pray they listen, and listen well.

This Sunday may we sit for a spiritual resolution to the current crisis, that the leaders, and everyone involved, listen Above for guidance. And if you happen to give it a moment or more between now and Sunday, that's good too.

Thank you,

Richard
