View Full Version : Huna - thoughts on life after death
Hi Everyone
I have another question please and would love to hear your thoughts.
This is about what the ancient Hawaiian's thought about death and what happens after death.
As someone who is searching for truth after being brought up in the Christian religion and not resonating fully with it, I am interested to know what 'hope' the Huna way of life provides.
Warmest thoughs, Opal.

Opal,
Regardless of what the ancient Hawaiian's thought about death remember they were just thoughts. Just like the Christian religion are just thoughts. Some thing that is useful to understand a belief is simply a thought that one has repeated long enough to think it is more than a just a thought.
Here are some more thoughts...
As I tell clients and students the 1st Forgotten Fundamental of (Duality) Life is...
The Individual is the Meaning Maker. (There can be no meaning without a meaning maker and until a meaning makers adds meaning nothing has meaning. The individual does not have to believe anything and yet whatever one does choose to believe (or happens to believe) will become their perceived and felt reality.)
Belief is the domain of the leading edge extension. Beliefs limit as they help with focus and they are a mind thing. To understand the truth one would have to believe everything so as to be able to determine which is or isn't. I don't know mentally what is truth. Mentally I focus on what works. In my knower I know certain things that work like truth for me. But subjectivity is just that subject. One can experience both object/subject, creator/created (Oneness-enlightenment) and yet language is subject-created level. And language is a major component of Human Consciousness.
I find it humorous that people think we can know the truth with our mind, when we designed the mind to create and play with illusion.(7+/-2 bits of information, generalize, delete, distort) The conscious mind is an illusion generating machine that is how anything gets created, it starts as a thought (illusion) then thought form then physical manifestation. (At least that's the story I'm using at present.)
I once was told a fact is a Greek word meaning "made up". (Works for me.)
If thinking thoughts about death and an afterlife are wanted think thoughts that will be useful such as...
You are an external expanding being.
You are non-physical extended into a physical body.
There is nothing to do, no where to go and you'll never get it done.
You aren't here to learn anything, save anything, do anything other than enjoy life and let it flow though you as you align with YOU and let the flow of life flow and take you to all you desire.
Physical Life is not a place where you come to learn or to improve, it is where you come to expand Divinity or Oneness in Duality.
Or as God once said when someone wanted to know God's will for them... "My will for you is your will for you. Whatever you want that is my will for you for I am you and you expand that which I am. Your role is of equal value for Oneness as my role is for Oneness. We are expanding Oneness through duality."
To Your Best,
Doc

Hi.
I'm sticking with Christianity.
Sorry I'm of no help once you choose to leave that realm.

I too was curious about what the Hawaiians thought. In my research I have found that their thoughts vary. From yes regarding reincarnation to no. One thing that is pretty common among all is they honor the spirits of their ancestors.
I too find my thoughts on this subject continue to evolve through meditation and my own experiences.

Merlin,
Christianity is a Context as is Huna or any other context. Structurally, they are the same. Huna is a useful model of explaining the "How To" of Christianity. It is not a useful model of "why" (which most of Christianity talks about and is very proficient in the model of why it is a certain way) and yet it is a useful model to explain the how part of Christianity, the how to preform miracles and do what Jesus did. After all he said when he left we would do the same things and greater as he and the father would both be in us.
Structurally one could use different and more Christian words and proof texting and explain the same thing I did but it would be couched in Christian terminology.
Many a Christian pastor and evangelist I know have taken the Huna model and use Christian terminology and empowered their people to more personal power even healing and miracles in their lives.
Structure/Process of "how to" is pretty much the same (may not be exactly identical and yet they are fairly similar) across the board regardless of what label or banner one wants to stand under. i.e Science, Metaphysics, Hypnosis, Religion (Christian, New Age, Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim, etc), Psychology, Language, etc.
Now beliefs about why are usually totally different among the labels/banners and yet the structure/process of how to operate are pretty much the same depending on the model of subjectivity and structure one chooses (NLP/HPE/DHE, Energy, Applied Quantum Physics, etc)
