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 2nd, 2022

Hello again, and on time this time, whew. Those who are addicted to personal power are threatened by even a glimmer of authentic power from those whom they wish to control. This plays out as a violent forcing of adherence to ideologies or personal loyalty rather than encouraging or allowing individual growth.

The protests in Russia over conscription into an unpopular war, and in Iran with the crackdown on head scarves, are examples of clinging to external power in the face of a growing sense of personal worth.

May we sit this evening for those who feel the pull of personal worth, for their struggle. May we encourage the bits of light shining through the growing cracks in authoritarian armor. May we support those dealing with the most difficult aspects of this spiritual transition.

Thank you and bless you all,

Richard
