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 February 21st, 2016

Hello everyone, as we meet people in this life we find they are not all admirable, nor agreeable, and sometimes downright infuriating. This is where Oneness can become a questionable concept. There is a trick to getting past our human psychology at such times.

It can take a while but look for something about them with which you can identify, something which you also own. This can be difficult when dealing with someone with whom we are deeply disgusted. But the truth is this: that which we despise most in others is the very thing which we find most disgusting within ourselves. They may be hard to find but honesty and humility are helpful here.

May we sit this evening for the strength and courage to be honest with ourselves, for the humility to see clearly, and for the love which may reach outward from us when we do.

Thank you,

Richard
