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 March 24th, 2013

Hello to all, in the opening of hearts we tend to move slowly, event by event. The common human frailties of self-protection and the distractions of selfish desires / impulses conspire to keep us walled up. We seem to go about in silence while a vast yearning need for connection goes unspoken, uncalled-to.

Births, deaths, weddings, and meditative trances tend to bring us out of our shells, each in their own manner. Then it is up to us to maintain our openness, to keep breathing and to be willing.

The answering of one heart to another is a powerful expression of spirituality. May we sit tomorrow evening for that opening and answering within and between us. May we be willing. May we have the courage. May we be as we are meant to be upon this Earth.

With reverent appreciation,

Richard
