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 July 14th, 2013

Hello all, sometimes it seems we get things into our heads best by taking them on the chin first. The Dalai Lama says, "Your enemies are your greatest teachers." So too, difficult circumstances can also be fine teachers. The view from within the perspective of humanity may be one of, "Oh, no, why must I deal with this?" But the view from outside of humanity, from the perspective of spirituality, may well be, "There, this is a good chance to clean this up." 

As we work our way through the chaos and karma of life, we may be accomplishing far more than we perceive. Obstacles have a way of becoming stepping-stones when viewed with higher vision.

May we sit this evening for that higher vision, or at least an awareness of it's availability. May we sit for a greater realization of what we may be accomplishing in this life, even when we are deeply uncomfortable. We are told there will come a time when all will be known. May we sit tonight for the willingness to fulfill a Higher Will.

Thank you all,

Richard
