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 September 20th, 2026

Hello to all. We like to think that knowing truth gives us a degree of authority. But we have to release all sense of authority to know truth because a sense of authority is of the ego, which is illusory, and an accumulation of knowledge, which is only from the past. Each one blocks the openness required to know truth.

It is only through our own clear investigations, awareness and attention to what is going on inside of ourselves that we will find freedom from our foibles, and therefore truth.

May we sit this evening seeing ourselves clearly, with all tics and bibble-drips in place. May we see them and release them as a child releases its grip, by simply no longer holding. May we find the freedom we seek.

Bless you all,

Richard
