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 March 15th, 2020

Hello everyone, seventy-five years ago this June, President Franklin D. Roosevelt led the Nation in prayer as the full force of the American military advanced onto the beaches of Normandy in France during a world-wide conflict. 

Today we face a different world-wide conflict. The novel coronavirus which causes the disease Covid-19 is apolitical and no respecter of our fragile, arbitrary boundaries. It spreads when unchecked and requires intelligent, active responses to curb that spreading.

Our government is now taking such active responses and a national day of prayer has been declared for this Sunday March 15th as well. It's a fine time to join in.

May we sit this Sunday for the condition of the world. May we all learn our lessons. May we open our hearts with compassion. May our prayers lighten the load of all those who are or will become afflicted. 

Thank you all,

Richard
