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, August

Hello all, history shows that when an ideology holds irresolutely to a position there are typically a few who stand to benefit materially. The position is often justified by emotional pleas and a movement from the fossilized position is always seen as a lessening, as an unwelcome compromising. Yet, when there exists the simple humility of willingness to search together then room is created for great cooperation, learning, and growth.
 
Being that we understand life on Earth exists for the purpose of learning and growth, may we sit toward that. May spiritual growth be chosen over political or financial affiliations. May spiritual growth be chosen over intense emotionality. May openess to spiritual growth simply be chosen.
 
Thank you,
 
Richard
