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 8th, 2020

Hello to everyone, it would be well to keep in mind what the great teachers have often told us – sometimes that which we need spiritually can be vastly uncomfortable. 

Once again the coronavirus grabs attention. As the rules for who can be tested for Covid-19 are relaxed the number of confirmed cases in the US are expected to rise dramatically. This would not be an increase in the spread of the disease but an increase in the detection of it, which is wise.

The precautions for avoiding the disease are the same for the spiritually minded as for everyone else. But with a spiritual foundation you may look more lovingly upon the scenario at large. We have lessons to learn as a society, and as individuals. In the simplest terms, we are learning to love. An open-hearted, non-judgmental, un-fearful view of the process at work can be a calming salve to the afflicted. 

May we sit this evening for the acceptance of our part in this process. May we care for those who are brought before us. May we care for ourselves during this process. May we be guided by love.

Thank you all,

Richard
