The Kahuna went on…
Let’s start with the definition of word “Kahuna”
Ka the light
Huna secret, spiritual, concealed knowledge or wisdom protected like a treasure
Kahu honoured or high servant who takes charge of persons, property or knowledge
Na calm, centred, balanced
So a Kahuna is anyone with specialised knowledge, PhD, a Jedi Master. Someone who protected a state of calmness and balance. Keeper of the calm, centred state. There were all types of Kahuna – in politics, government, planting, fishing, child birth, negotiation, farming, canoe building, navigation, tiki (statue) carving. The areas we’re interested in here include:
La’au Lapa’au doctors of medicine, herbal
La’au Kahea Literally “We call the medicine” - psychologists, faith healers
Kilikilo prediction, divination, runes
Na’auao mystics
It is rumoured that Huna was the secret teaching behind all other secret teachings. Certainly there are legends of an advanced island civilisation sinking and the people of the land sailing to the four corners of the globe, talking their lore with them. The Hawaiian islands are mountain tops centred on a tectonic plate resting above an active hotspot. The volcano on the Big Island is active to this day.
Polynesian is the oldest language on the planet. In fact 80% of the content of Huna has never been published in writing. Originally it was called “Ho’o mana”.
Ho’o = to make
Mana = Energy, Chi, Ki, Life force [as in mana from heaven]
Ho’o Mana = empowering yourself.
Think about it - everything you do requires energy, and the more energy you have, the longer you will live, and the more you can do with your life. Huna is all about making connections with sources of Mana. Now that may sound weird and “out there” to you, but there are corresponding systems that you may already be familiar with:
Having a Higher Self/Guardian Spirit— Native American, Hermetic(western Europe) and alchemy
4/5 Elements— Alchemy, Hermetics, Egyptian Magic, Tantra, Western and Japanese astrology
Entering the Dream Time (Moe Uhane)— Native American, Maori in New Zealand, Aborigine in Australia.
Herbs in Healing— Native American, Chinese, etc.
Energy Healing— Philippines psychic surgery, Reiki, Chinese Acupuncture
Numerology— Cabalah, Pythagoras, Japanese astrology, numbers and their vibrational essence
Astrology— Most systems use the stars and planets to predict
Chanting - Native American, Aborigine, Maori, Tantra
Of course these should all correspond if they all came from the same source…? Now is the time for the revival of ancient teachings – a shift is occurring…
Max Doubt’s response?
One way to “big up” yourself is to give yourself a fancy shmancy title! I thought a Ka was a crap motor!
You hear the words “Na” and “Ho!” on the streets of Glasgow ever day!
Methinks that these people keep a calm centred state by smokin’ the wacky backy!
See, you lost me at “faith healer” – are you honestly yelling me that people believe in this hokum? That I can heal myself through the power of spirit or divine intervention or whatever mumbo jumbo you’re pushing? I’ll stick with crawling up to the health centre and coming back with a bottle of penicillin mate! That’s white man’s “Ju ju”
Prediction and runes- it gets worse. You can find these freaks at any health fair, pretending they can read the future from the shape of your belly button fluff. Please! I predict I’m going to stop reading this shortly.
Come back Arthur C. Clarke, all is forgiven.
You get energy from calories, which is food and drink. And the occasional can of Red Bull. Looking at the average Hawaiian I’ve seen on TV there’s no shortage of McDonalds on those islands!
The Muppets had a song about this. “Mana mana doo doo do do do”
Wait a minute – Tantra you say? That’s that kinky stuff that Sting gets up to? Now this might be getting interesting…
Its your turn – tell us who’s right HERE
