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 May 22nd, 2016

Hello everyone, as we search for answers and guidance in this life it is well to remember that we may know false prophets by the fruits of their labors. And, Eckhart Tolle says that conflict is a measure of spiritual growth; does conflict arise around you or does conflict tend to resolve in your presence?

It may be difficult to find a political candidate who exudes love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control – the fruits of the spirit. But, we may nurture these qualities within ourselves and share them with all we meet.

We might thereby lay a foundation which leads toward a goal which already exists and only needs to be seen more clearly – Oneness.

May we sit this Sunday for the 'Fruits of the Spirit' within ourselves. May we recognize them in others. May they be the bedrock of our lives. 

Thank you,

Richard
