As a matter of interest, why does systemd start sessions every couple of minutes? And if it is completely standard, is it necessary to inform me of this in /var/log/messages?
Sessions of what? Posting log entries here would help.

Probably everything except the PID associated with thesystemd-logind are cron jobs. Look in the output of journalctl to see more about these services.
