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.

Hello to all, in the Ukraine, and by some reports in Venezuela, people are realizing that human life is meant to be more than fodder for corporate or governmental interests. At best we are witnessing the beginnings of a global wave of human compassion which began in Tianenmen Square and is yet ongoing. Clearly, there are those who feel threatened by the change. 

May we sit this Sunday in petition for the Light to come down upon all those involved in this growing wave of compassion. Its time has come, no matter the many bumps in its birthing.

Respectfully,

Richard

Hello all, as world media focuses upon the Olympics with it's dramatic accomplishments of teams and individuals, let us see the gathering of hearts which occurs there. The little kindnesses and camaraderies which create honest connections between people of distant lands may well be the lasting gifts of these events.

Whether we're digging our way out of a new batch of winter snow or basking in the glow of family and friends, may we take a moment to appreciate the heartfelt connections which can occur across the globe when folks are honest and kind to one another.

Thank you,

Richard

Hello all, as the situation in Syria continues on it behooves us to focus them upon them once more. The path to a spiritual world is bumpy and help is always worthwhile. 

So, for all who are involved in the difficulty, may we petition the Light to shine down upon them for their highest good.

Reverently,

Richard
