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 October 24th, 2021

Hello to everyone, the Oneness from which we came from awaits our return. We, caught up as we are in our space/time modality, see separation. We see 'others' all around us.

But if we could see with love, through our hearts, we would find commonalities.

May we sit this evening to open our hearts. May we search for our connections. May the illusion of distance melt away in Oneness.

Thank you,

Richard

And with a thank you to Barbara Whitfield for sending this to me this morning:

I'll be away from my computer at an NDE Retreat in Virginia Beach this weekend, so I'm posting this early. Enjoy!

Hello to each and every one of you, in her NDE Ellyn Dye was told, "Some people were meant to be the sand in your oyster, so you can build a pearl." In our highly partisan, divided environment it's easy to find people and situations which challenge our ability to love them. And yet the pearl of unconditional love, loving everyone no matter what, is the only way out of the debacle we find ourselves in.

May we sit this coming Sunday, and keep in mind always, that there is so much good in the worst of us and so much bad in the best of us – that we ought to love all equally.
 
Blessings,

Richard

Hello everyone, there are lessons to be learned in life, often hidden within difficulties. Some of the physical lessons within this Covid pandemic are; to take loving care of yourself, your health and possible exposure to the virus; to take loving care of others by being watchful of exposing yourself to them.
 
And there are deeper lessons, the lessons of emotional well-being in a time of crisis. Taking care of ourselves so we have the resources to take good care of others is essential – lest we become a spiritual irritant upon the surface of Mother Earth.
 
May we help others by attending to ourselves lovingly. May we help ourselves by attending to others lovingly. In our search for Oneness may we all heal.

Thank you all for all you do,

Richard

Hello everyone, many survivors of difficult childhoods come to know that those early pains can, after appropriate healing, become their strengths later in life – because the process of healing can be shared.

Because we're all human we all have something to heal from. However complete that healing is, that is our healing strength.
 
May we sit this evening for the honesty to see our weaknesses, the courage to face them, and the love to heal from them. And, may our efforts bring benefit to the Earth plane.

Thank you all,

Richard
