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 December 22nd, 2013

Hello all, the dictionary describes the word 'cosmos' as "the universe, especially when it is understood as an ordered system". This is clear and well stated. However in the original Greek the word 'cosmos' literally means "an ornament". 

The idea that we are all part of an ornament through which the Divine chooses to express itself calls forth a sense of pure and exquisite obligation to join in, to shepherd or midwife, the birthing of the Divine into this physical world.

May we sit this Sunday, the 22nd day of this month, for that birthing. We may reach out to millions, or we may smile at one, but we all have our place in the cosmos.

Thank you,

Richard
