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 21st, 2013

Hello everyone, with any disaster there is a respondent increase in compassion and last week's tragedy at the Boston Marathon reminded us that there are always volunteers. While only a few people caused the horror, there were hundreds who responded with courage and compassion. Then too, on a high spiritual level far beyond our typical awareness, there can be a volunteering to be personally involved in the blasts, a volunteering to be of service to humanity by giving one's life over to the opening of hearts.

Aside from the distractions of anger, revenge, and the need for human justice, the lesson of any difficulty is in the compassion brought forth. Let us sit this evening for that opening up, that bringing forth which may well be the foundation of humanity's spiritual future.

Thank you,

Richard
