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.

Sunday, June 5

For Sunday, June 5th, 2011

Hello all, many people wish to improve the world. They try through military might, political power, financial wealth, law making, religious adherence, thoughtful debate, angry diatribe, and even prayer. Each has its time and place.
 
However, one of the interesting concepts put forth in Tom Shadyac's movie "I AM" is that it's our tiniest kindnesses, the "Excuse me", the honest "How are you?", and heartfelt smiles, many of which we don't even recall giving, accumulated over a lifetime, that end up influencing the world most.

This concurs with the reports of many near-death experiencers, as seen and learned in their life reviews.
 
This Sunday may we sit for the compassion, the composure, and the honesty to extend ourselves lovingly to the world in even the smallest manner.
 
Thank you,
 
Richard
