Ho 'oponopono [using love]

[Guest guest]

Ho 'oponoponoBy Joe Vitale"Two years ago, I heard about a therapist in Hawaii who cured acomplete ward of criminally insane patients--without ever seeing any ofthem. The psychologist would study an inmate's chart and then lookwithin himself to see how he created that person's illness. As heimproved himself, the patient improved."When I first heard this story, I thought it was an urban legend. Howcould anyone heal anyone else by healing himself? How could even thebest self-improvement master cure the criminally insane? It didn't makeany sense. It wasn't logical, so I dismissed the story."However, I heard it again a year later. I heard that the therapist hadused a Hawaiian healing process called ho 'oponopono. I had never heardof it, yet I couldn't let it leave my mind. If the story was at alltrue, I had to know more. I had always understood "total responsibility"to mean that I am responsible for what I think and do. Beyond that, it'sout of my hands. I think that most people think of total responsibilitythat way. We're responsible for what we do, not what anyone elsedoes--but that's wrong."The Hawaiian therapist who healed those mentally ill people wouldteach me an advanced new perspective about total responsibility. Hisname is Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len. We probably spent an hour talking on ourfirst phone call. I asked him to tell me the complete story of his workas a therapist.He explained that he worked at Hawaii State Hospital for four years.That ward where they kept the criminally insane was dangerous.Psychologists quit on a monthly basis. The staff called in sick a lotor simply quit. People would walk through that ward with their backsagainst the wall, afraid of being attacked by patients. It was not apleasant place to live, work, or visit."Dr. Len told me that he never saw patients. He agreed to have anoffice and to review their files. While he looked at those files, hewould work on himself. As he worked on himself, patients began to heal."'After a few months, patients that had to be shackled were beingallowed to walk freely,' he told me. 'Others who had to be heavilymedicated were getting off their medications. And those who had nochance of ever being released were being freed.' I was in awe.'Not onlythat,' he went on, 'but the staff began to enjoy coming to work.Absenteeism and turnover disappeared. We ended up with more staff thanwe needed because patients were being released, and all the staff wasshowing up to work. Today, that ward is closed.'"This is where I had to ask the million dollar question: 'What were youdoing within yourself that caused those people to change?'"'I was simply healing the part of me that created them,' he said. Ididn't understand. Dr. Len explained that total responsibility for yourlife means that everything in your life- simply because it is in yourlife--is your responsibility. In a literal sense the entire world isyour creation."Whew. This is tough to swallow. Being responsible for what I say or dois one thing. Being responsible for what everyone in my life says ordoes is quite another. Yet, the truth is this: if you take completeresponsibility for your life, then everything you see, hear, taste,touch, or in any way experience is your responsibility because it is inyour life. This means that terrorist activity, the president, theeconomy or anything you experience and don't like--is up for you toheal. They don't exist, in a manner of speaking, except as projectionsfrom inside you. The problem isn't with them, it's with you, and tochange them, you have to change you."I know this is tough to grasp, let alone accept or actually live.Blame is far easier than total responsibility, but as I spoke with Dr.Len, I began to realize that healing for him and in ho 'oponopono meansloving yourself."If you want to improve your life, you have to heal your life. If youwant to cure anyone, even a mentally ill criminal you do it by healingyou."I asked Dr. Len how he went about healing himself. What was he doing,exactly, when he looked at those patients' files?"'I just kept saying, 'I'm sorry' and 'I love you' over and overagain,' he explained."That's it?"That's it."Turns out that loving yourself is the greatest way to improveyourself, and as you improve yourself, you improve your world."Let me give you a quick example of how this works: one day, someonesent me an email that upset me. In the past I would have handled it byworking on my emotional hot buttons or by trying to reason with theperson who sent the nasty message."This time, I decided to try Dr. Len's method. I kept silently saying,'I'm sorry' and 'I love you,' I didn't say it to anyone in particular. Iwas simply evoking the spirit of love to heal within me what wascreating the outer circumstance."Within an hour I got an e-mail from the same person. He apologized forhis previous message. Keep in mind that I didn't take any outward actionto get that apology. I didn't even write him back. Yet, by saying 'Ilove you,' I somehow healed within me what was creating him."I later attended a ho 'oponopono workshop run by Dr. Len. He's now 70years old, considered a grandfatherly shaman, and is somewhatreclusive.He praised my book, The Attractor Factor. He told me that as I improvemyself, my book's vibration will raise, and everyone will feel it whenthey read it. In short, as I improve, my readers will improve."'What about the books that are already sold and out there?' I asked."'They aren't out there,' he explained, once again blowing my mind withhis mystic wisdom. 'They are still in you.' In short, there is no outthere. It would take a whole book to explain this advanced techniquewith the depth it deserves."Suffice It to say that whenever you want to improve anything in yourlife, there's only one place to look: inside you.

Yes Yes Yes...this is what Master Dang spoke about in Many of His

teachings...The Power of Love is Greater than we really understand at

times. He also taught " Heal Yourself FIRST before you can Heal

anyone else " Recently I was recieving guidance from Master Spirit

and what was shared was " REMEMBER OUR PRIMARY OBJECTIVE IS LOVE " So

it is up to us all to stop and say over and over again " I AM SORRY! I

LOVE YOU!

I AM SORRY, I LOVE YOU!!!I AM SORRY, I LOVE YOU!!!

I AM SORRY, I LOVE YOU!!!

I AM SORRY, I LOVE YOU!!!I AM SORRY, I LOVE YOU!!!

I AM SORRY, I LOVE YOU!!!

I AM SORRY, I LOVE YOU!!

If you notice you can feel your Chakra 6 and 7 spin. This will give

all of you a Greater understanding about " AGAPE " ...

Thank You so much for sharing this story with this wonderful

likeminded Group!!!

Sincerely Yours is Love Light and Happiness

Dearest brother,

I cannot tell you the elation I feel now with this amazing

using of love to " dispel " the negative thoughts and feelings I have

and a very amazing way to express love in a grander way. I feel the

love literally engulf me as I repeat those words... " I'm sorry. I

love you. " Such " simple " words but the effect they have on my life

has made an amazing turnaround already. I wish to send you BIG HUGS

and blessings for this post, dear! You are wonderful! I have never

really found such a profound way of giving love and healing myself

certainly IS the key! You have given me that key, my dear brother!

Thank you again! HUGS!!!!!!!! Namaste, LUNA
