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.

Saturday, November 27

Hello everyone, in the vast expanse of modern media we are awash with sensationalism, outrage, adamant opinions, and selfish reasoning. Such anger and bitterness does not lead to peace of mind. 

We are social animals. We depend upon one another. We benefit from applying love and compassion in the situations we encounter. Such compassion can bring the optimism and hope which is so needed for a bright future.

Let us sit this Sunday for the wisdom to choose wisely and lovingly in our interactions with others. May we have the courage and insight to see the person standing behind the opinions. May we prepare our society for the healing which must occur.

Thank you all,

Richard
