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.

Sunday, February 1

For Sunday February 1st, 2015

Hello all, it can be argued that the major religions have failed their spiritual teachings in favor of dogma and ritual. However, spirituality being ever-present, it can still be found with the right eyes. Old teachings tend take on new views when seen through the clear vision of the heart. 

It's a small word change from 'you must love God' to 'you must be the love of God'

The new age phrase 'you are a God' can be applied in a self-centered manner or it can carry the responsibility of loving others as God loves.

And, how deep is the truest meaning of 'we are made in His image'?

May we sit this evening for the ability to see with new eyes. As all the great religions were inspired by Love, may we find that Love within, and spread it without.

Thank you,

Richard
