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 May 27th, 2012

Hello all, about this time each year I like to repeat Tom Sawyer's list of terms which he foresaw as coming into use as such experiences became common among people.

Unitive - One with all things, spiritual totality, no physical boundaries, separateness replaced with unitive and identification of spiritual totality. It's signature feature being aspects of Unitive which are exceptionally remarkable and the same for everyone.

Dissociation - Once considered a mental illness it is good for clearing a path to the Unitive, such as a sense deprivation tank.

Numinous - The spiritual domain where the mystery of mysteries resides, that which cannot be said.

Experience of the Numinous - The arousal of ecstatic emotions surpassing anything previously felt.

Revelations of the Numinous - Will be life changing.

Psychological Absorption or Mind Merge - Becoming one with... Frequently it is focusing on a single thing thereby eliminating all else.

Ku - The spirit force, or God, which awaits in each person - it is that Unitive - you can forget about it but cannot remove it.

Mind Sight - A psychic state where one "sees" with 360 degree viewing (spherical and into the 4th dimension) Tom Sawyer's full clairvoyance includes this anomaly of mind sight, and blind people can do this.

At the end of the list he added, "Don't waste time meditating without this." So, may we sit toward any and all of this, this time and every time.

Thank you,

Richard
