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, June 12th, 2011

Hello all, the writings of Sidney Saylor Farr are some of the loveliest you'll see. A case can be made that her histories, cookbooks, and simple local stories helped the town of Berea, Kentucky survive a tornado.
 
The concept of 'spiritual glue' is that it's the actual heartfelt connections between people which assists in mitigating some of the devastation of natural events. Sidney's beautiful writings and lifelong loving treatment of others went a long way towards creating those connections in Berea. On the day of the tornado the worst personal injury was a broken collarbone, and it happened after the tornado had passed.
 
May we sit this Sunday in thanks to her and toward the further forging of connections in our own lives.
 
Thank you,
 
Richard
