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 August 21st, 2016

Hello everyone, watching people as we approach our national election we find anger, mean spirited humor, unyielding beliefs and attitudes, and massive mistrust. Not only would this election benefit from media literacy that we may see through the numerous spin tactics in use but it also cries out for the ancient phrase "Blessed are the Peacemakers."

Those who speak quietly, who search for wisdom, who see a human family artificially divided by itself are too often lost in the din of rolling, tumbling, ambitious political rancor. 

May we sit this Sunday for the peacemakers. May we give them our hearts. May we give them our time. May we find them to be ourselves.

As Above, So Below,

Richard
