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 August 28th, 2022

Hello everyone, the Tham Luang cave rescue in Thailand shows the beauty of humanity. Over the course of nearly three weeks more than 10,000 people, from 17 different countries, came together to try and save the lives of 12 kids and their soccer coach.
 
Despite our endless wars, the distraction of political justifications, and the illusion of separation – the entire world was treated to a demonstration of compassion, and an answer to the question, "What is the value of human life?"
 
May we sit Sunday evening in gratitude for that compassion. May it uplift our lives. May our compassion lift the lives of those around us.

Thank you all,

Richard
