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, November 7th, 2010

Hello all, from Aristotle's explanations of nature to Galileo's celestial observations to Newton's laws of physics to Einstein's thought experiments to the non-intuitive world of quantum physics, humankind has been on a quest for knowledge. At each stage of the progression there have been major obstacles, and yet the quest continues. The distraction of employing this historic build-up of scientific knowledge to produce war machinery and profit is a current obstacle.

If it is true that centuries of synchronistic scientific advancement has been for the purpose of establishing a 'proof' of that energy which has been called God, Allah, Nirvana, Valhalla, The Light, and so on, then science needs to find it's center once again. Scientists and philosophers would do well to compare notes with an eye more toward common ground than division.

This Sunday may we sit for this rekindling of purpose, this resurrection of old guidance, this brand-new realization of an ancient pact.

Thank you,

Richard
