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.

Sunday, September 8

For Sunday September 8th, 2024

Hello and welcome once again. We have all been conditioned by our upbringing; our families, our religions, our politics, our financial positions, our biases and prejudices, even the shape and health of our bodies. And here we are, caught up in this huge, massive, ever flowing, and tremendously powerful river of life. Our conditioning is so small, narrow, and shallow in comparison to all that life is, yet our conditioning is what we respond to life from.

Can we drop all that? Are we capable of leaving all of our conditioning behind and seeing life anew? If not we will remain trapped within our familiar walls of conditioning, and miss the grand and beautiful expanse of what life truly is.

Let us sit this evening without blinders on our experiences. Let us be open to see all that is. Let us truly and simply BE.

With love for all,

Richard
