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 April 22nd, 2012

Hello all and welcome to Earth Day. There is an old Sufi saying, "God enters our lives through the wounds in our hearts." It is a path at once difficult and effective. However, God may also enter through gratefulness, before wounding occurs.

Earth Day is to remind us that generations yet to come will live upon the foundations we build now, foundations of gratefulness, helpfulness, sharing, cooperation, concern for others, and for our collective future. May we sit this Sunday for those positive openings through which God may enter, for those foundations which sustain our lives by our actions, and our hearts by our attitudes.

Thank you,

Richard
