HO'OPONOPONO

"Two years ago, I heard about a therapist in Hawaii who cured a complete ward of criminally insane patients--without ever seeing any of them. The psychologist would study an inmate's chart and then look within himself to see how he created that person's illness. As he improved himself, the patient improved.

"When I first heard this story, I thought it was an urban legend. How could anyone heal anyone else by healing himself? How could even the best self-improvement master cure the criminally insane? It didn't make any sense. It wasn't logical, so I dismissed the story.

"However, I heard it again a year later. I heard that the therapist had used a Hawaiian healing process called ho 'oponopono. I had never heard of it, yet I couldn't let it leave my mind. If the story was at all true, 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's out of my hands. I think that most people think of total responsibility that ay. We're responsible for what we do, not what anyone else does--but that's wrong.


"'I just kept saying, 'I'm sorry' and 'I love you' over and over again,' he explained.

"That's it?

"That's it.

"Turns out that loving yourself is the greatest way to improve yourself, and as you improve yourself, you improve your world.

"Let me give you a quick example of how this works: one day, someone sent me an email that upset me. In the past I would have handled it by working on my emotional hot buttons or by trying to reason with the person 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. I was simply evoking the spirit of love to heal within me what was creating the outer circumstance.

"Within an hour I got an e-mail from the same person. He apologized for his previous message. Keep in mind that I didn't take any outward action to get that apology. I didn't even write him back. Yet, by saying 'I love you,' I somehow healed within me what was creating him.

"I later attended a ho 'oponopono workshop run by Dr. Len. He's now 70 years old, considered a grandfatherly shaman, and is somewhat reclusive.

He praised my book, The Attractor Factor. He told me that as I improve myself, my book's vibration will raise, and everyone will feel it when they 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 with his mystic wisdom. 'They are still in you.' In short, there is no out there. It would take a whole book to explain this advanced technique with the depth it deserves.

"Suffice It to say that whenever you want to improve anything in your life, there's only one place to look: inside you. When you look, do it with love."

  • IHALEAKALA HEW LEN, Ph.D., Master Teacher of SITH (1982 Present)

    Dr. Hew Len has extensive experiences working with the developmentally disabled and the criminally mentally ill and their families. Self Identity through Hooponopono (SITH) is central to his work as an educator. He has been conducting SITH classes around the world for over twenty years.

    He taught me personally Ho`oponopono.

    He changed my life and I thank you for this video.

    Aloha from Hawaii,

  • um yeah not to rain on ur parade or anything but has anyone check wat happened in the aftermath if anyone at all relapsed cause even if the guy did heal a whole psycho ward that doesn't really mean shit if they all relapse like 3 months or 3 years later cause the world an ugly place with shitty people stick a bunch of ex psychos with the AGAIN they will go on to do it again out of habit it's just like smoking its hard to stop killing people when it's a habit

  • Thank you for sharing such great song and the photos are really touching~

    marvelous!!

  • A perfect prayer...

    However, there's a deception abroad, and that is the statement that Dr. Len never "saw' the patients. He never "saw" them formally, in a patient-therapist setting, but he "saw" the patients daily, in the corridors, etc., and he helped to establish a jollier atmosphere.

  • hoohhohohoho !hoponpopnpoopoopopop !!!

    HO' popnpopopnpopnpopopmnpopnpiopo­ooo !!
