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 February 14th, 2021

Hello to all of you, the term 'pagan religion' has been used derisively but at the core of them all is an honoring of nature. The connection and reverence which indigenous people have for Mother Earth can be clearly seen in these videos of the Kogi Indians of Columbia.

Our western world, who they refer to as 'younger brother', has much to learn.

May we sit this evening to give a Valentine to Mother Earth. Our bodies are made of hers. Our quality of life depends upon how we take care of her. Our continued survival is linked to developing a deep and abiding connection not only to Mother Earth but to all of human-unity.

Thank you all,

Richard
