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.

Special Request for Tuesday December 5th, 2017

Hello everyone, Stanley Peele has asked that we honor a friend of ours who passed on this summer, after 101 exceptional years on Earth. Like all great teachers Vaughn Boone was a friend to all who met him, and an astonishing healer. I'd like to turn this Tuesday's meditation over to Stanley who has written the following:


Massive acts of violence are on the increase.  We can change this tendency if we respond to the violence by extinguishing the violence within ourselves.  Each time we exhibit kindness, each time we practice forgiveness, each time we pray for others – each of these acts will ricochet around the world.   And bring us peace.

 

Vaughn Boone lived the kind of life we aspire to – a dedication to love and peace.  His spirit will continue to have an effect on us. 

 

By taking time to honor him, we can renew our efforts to remove all feelings of hate from our hearts.   And replace them with love!!

 

Yes, acts of violence are present.  Yet, let's remember that acts of kindness and love are far, far more prevalent!

 

"I feel so thankful that God has provided such a way

By which we can rise above this house of clay

To experience in rarified realms beyond our dreams,

As we soar in endless space following His light beams."

 

Vaughn Boone

 

You are warmly invited to join a meditation to honor Vaughn Boone and to re-dedicate ourselves to the ideals he lived by.

 

This will occur on Tuesday, December 5, 2017 at 9 PM.  Each person can stay in their own homes or where ever they might be.  (No central gathering is planned at this time.)
