HUNA HEALING
The Healing and Improving Process
How healing and change works
Conscious Mind initiates the healing process, a petition to Divine Intelligence to transmute memories to Void. It acknowledges that the problem is memories replaying in its Subconscious Mind, and that it is 100 percent responsible for them. The petition moves down from the Conscious Mind into the Subconscious Mind. (See Figure C.4.)
- The down flow of the petition into the Subconscious Mind gently stirs memories for transmutation. The petition then moves up to the Superconscious Mind (High Mind) from the Subconscious Mind.
- The High Mind reviews the petition, making changes as appropriate. Because it is always in tune with Divine Intelligence, it has the capacity to review and make changes. The petition is then sent up to Divine Intelligence for final review and consideration.
- After reviewing the petition sent up by the High Mind, Divine Intelligence sends transmuting energy down into the High Mind.
- Transmuting energy then flows from the High Mind down into the Conscious Mind.
- And transmuting energy then flows down from the Conscious Mind into the High Mind. The transmuting energy first neutralizes designated memories. The neutralized energies are then released into storage, leaving a Void.
The Soul can be inspired by Divine Intelligence without knowing what the heck is going on. The only requirement for Inspiration, Divine creativity, is for our Self our Self. To be our requires incessant cleansing of memories.
Thinking and blame are memories replaying. Memories are constant companions of the Subconscious Mind. They never leave the Subconscious Mind to go on vacation. They never leave the Subconscious Mind to go into retirement. Memories never stop their incessant replaying!
The Huna Vow
In practicing Huna, I promise never to use my knowledge or abilities to interfere with another’s free will, and I will not use my power to affect others against their will. respect every being’s freedom of choice, and I vow to use Huna for the highest good of every being. I make this promise from the heart, with all sincerity. So be it. It is done.
THOUGHT FORMS
Thoughts can become things. Every thought begins as a vibration in the conscious mind and becomes stronger when reinforced with emotion. Strong thoughts can manifest in the physical world, and if similar thoughts are held by a large number of people, manifestation is virtually certain.
The late Hawaiian teacher Morrnah N. Simeona saw thought forms in a person’s aura as colors, lights, and shapes. She stressed the importance of channeling thought patterns in positive, life-affirming ways. The ever-changing, kaleidoscope like nature of thoughts that pass through the mind makes them difficult to control, however. An effective way to work with thought patterns is through speech.
POSITIVE SPEECH
If thoughts are things that have substance and effect, then spoken words have even greater power. They are thoughts made manifest in the world. The ancient Hawaiians took the spoken word very seriously, believing in its power to help or harm.
As a student of Huna, the first step in your practice is to work with the Basic Self to begin thinking and speaking positively. This seems to be a simple readjustment, but positive speech is actually a powerful tool to begin programming a positive future. It has been observed that 80 percent of human dialogue is negative, so there is indeed a great need for a positive trend. If you don’t believe it, listen to the talk in the office or supermarket. You are likely to hear a constant barrage of talk about things gone wrong or the anticipation that they will go wrong. Some of this negativity has been programmed from an early age, while some of it has come by way of our societies and cultures. Some of it is just plain habit.
Positive speech is such a profound spiritual practice because the Basic Self takes things literally and is always listening to what you say. The cells of your body respond to sound vibrations, and whether they are bombarded by negative or by positive vibrations can make the difference between being sick or well. Anything thought or said repeatedly eventually will be manifested in reality by the Basic Self.
Awareness is the key to positive speech, so begin by listening. Go into a meditative or contemplative state and ask your Basic Self to cooperate with you in speaking positively and ask your High Self to guide you. Then, listen to yourself talk without judgment and without censure. When you hear yourself saying something negative, replace it with a positive statement. If it’s too late for that, simply think of what you could have said and move on. When another person says something negative, either counter it with a positive statement or say nothing (don’t add anything negative).
One way of keeping on track with this is to form a partnership with another person. When you say something negative, arrange to give that person a dollar. Or, when you hear yourself saying something negative, place a dollar in a box that you later give to charity.
Practicing positive speech is a little like peeling an onion. You discover more and more layers, and finally you understand that this is not a simple practice. What you realize in time is that the human race is so conditioned to perceive pain and misery that most people have formed a habit of seeing it everywhere. In truth, there is nothing negative on earth except in our perception of it. It is not really necessary to view anything as negative, only to observe and understand it. What about the tragedies played out on television, in the community, in individual lives? What about the deaths of children and war and natural disasters that destroy life? Surprisingly, every experience is open to a positive interpretation. Everything that happens is speaking to you about life if you only have ears to listen. Learn to find the “blessing in disguise” in every situation.
There can be confusion when you first start to practice positive speech. Some of the questions that arise are: Am I going to become a Pollyanna? Am I just suppressing my true feelings? How can I express emotions such as anger, frustration, grief? Can I be honest and still be positive?
First of all, there’s no downside to being consistently positive. At first it may feel as though you are suppressing your true feelings, but as you practice being positive, this will become your true feeling. Second, many people associate anger with negativity, but this is erroneous. Everyone becomes angry at times—it is human—and there is nothing inherently unspiritual or negative about it. There certainly can be negativity in the way anger is processed or expressed. The kahuna knew that to become powerful, they had to understand their emotions and process them in constructive ways. They understood that strong feelings are not necessarily negative—they can be honestly expressed without being destructive.
When you become angry, avoid expletives which give the anger a negative charge and resonate badly in the Basic Self. Don’t damn or dam anything, and don’t employ expressions using bodily functions to express anger. Remember that words said in fear and anger reverberate in the Basic Self for a very long time. So, what do you say if you should back into another car in the parking lot? Program your expletives in advance to be positive. Use the words of your grandparents that were positive and mild expressions such as “dear me,” “my goodness,” “my word,” and “gracious me.” If those don’t appeal to you, find positive alternatives.
Be aware that anything said habitually is a powerful reinforcer. Keep a list of words you use often and habitually—they will give you insight into your basic assumptions. If you often hear yourself saying “good grief’ or “no way,” know that you are programming your Basic Self with negative expressions. If you often use sarcasm and say, “oh, wonderful” for something you don’t like, this is sending a confusing message to the Basic Self. Avoid sarcasm in general.
Note your general speech patterns and how your language is constructed. Whenever you say the word “but,” you are implying a situation of conflict. Substitute “and” and it becomes a statement of facts. Pay attention whenever you hear yourself saying “try” and “should.” “I will try” often means “I don’t want to, but I don’t want to say so.” “Should” often implies heavy conflict or guilt. The word “should” frequently points to a conflict between the Middle Self and the Basic Self.
One note: when learning to practice positive speech, be careful not to make yourself feel guilty about saying something negative. Just look at what you are saying and question—what does it mean to you? What else could you have said? Change it to the positive. Keep your general goal of positive speech in mind, and the Basic Self will gradually get in the habit of speaking positively.
Be wary of exaggeration, which in some persons can become a habit that gets out of hand. Those who exaggerate generally want to make themselves more interesting or exciting, but this is really a mild form of lying. Listen to yourself when you describe a situation. Are you embellishing? Ask your Basic Self to stick to the facts. Avoid word inflation—using words such as “great” or “fantastic” when you don’t really mean them. That is another form of exaggeration. Use the words “very” and “really” only when they apply.
Contradiction is another bad habit of speech that resonates badly in the Basic Self. You all know someone who always counters any statement you make with the opposite. This can become a habit that creates dissension and distrust among people. It is never constructive. Listen to your interaction with others. If you are constantly disagreeing, ask yourself why. Is it out of habit? When you sincerely have another perspective, simply state your idea as another point of view. Arguing or disagreeing seldom changes another’s viewpoint and usually only serves to harden it. How do you handle it when someone else is constantly contradicting you? Let it go and see that person as a “teacher” by reverse example.
Avoid asking “really?” as a matter of habit in a conversation, unless you are questioning the veracity of what you are hearing. Be aware that when you say “I know,” you are expressing to the other that you have the same understanding. Repeating “you know” often means that you are having trouble communicating.
Thanks and gratitude are powerful ways of speaking positively and raise mana in both the one who thanks and the recipient. When gratitude comes from the heart and is sincerely expressed, it reinforces positive outcomes and sets up a strong positive vibration for the future. Thanking the universe and being grateful for the beauty and goodness around you predispose you to more beauty and goodness to come.
When it comes to psychic protection, positive speaking is one of the best ways to strengthen the Basic Self and protect it from psychic suggestion or even attack by others, whether the entities are in the body or out. Habitual negativity drains energy and thus opens up the aura to invasion. As you clear out harmful patterns from the Basic Self, you create a strong and healthy mind that resists any form of possession.
In general, then, when you are learning to practice positive speech, listen to yourself as much as you can and gently guide your verbal expression to the positive. Be watchful of anything said with emotion and anything said habitually. Remember that words are things. In this way, your Basic Self will form the habit of speaking—and thinking—positively. This will make a world of difference in your life.
