For years the unconscious journey
into creativity was propelled in the external world through the
authors incessant question of “Why - why this way and not another?”
In many ways he was looking for a way that the Universe worked that
matched what he intuitively knew and felt about Creation. A key
breakthrough came in 1993 that ultimate lead to the
Ultimate Accident.
For years the author read spiritual and religious writing looking
for that tradition that seemed to best express what he intuitively
knew. He was looking for something but he did not quite know for
what he looked. There was a
deep inner longing that came from the depth of his being that
could only be expressed as the need to have a understanding about
how the Universe worked that corresponded to his inner awareness.
The best that can be said is that the tradition had to feel right.
It had to make a feeling connection within his being. Otherwise he
could not accept it.
The longing what was reflected in he had to know how the Universe
worked could not be satisfied by his mental acceptance of any
teaching. It didn’t matter who the teacher was or what their
credentials may be. The understanding had to satisfy something
within his being. This longing is reflected and described in the
reason
why he chose to major in Physics as an undergraduate and is also
the basis of the
internal compass. He did not know what he sought but he knew
what it could or would do for him. In essence he was looking for
some very fundamental principles about the nature of Creation.
Physics, quantum mechanics in particular, came the closest to
corresponding how he felt about the nature of the Creation and how
the Universe worked.
For over twenty- four years after
he set the intention to find that which lasts, he looked to see
if I could find a set of spiritual principles that were clear,
concise and not cluttered with the baggage of tradition which
addressed the fundament he felt within his being. He had to have his
question incessant questioning, “Why this and not that?” answered.
The baggage of tradition, being the dogma, rituals, and other
predetermined forms of expression, did nothing to help answer these
questions. They only added more questions - why this ritual, why
this dogma, why this order of things? He seemed to be unable to find
anything that addressed the root of “Why this and not that.”
Then, in the 1993 time frame, several of the works of Max Freedom
Long came into the author’s possession. Max was an individual who
wanted to learn the Huna Tradition from the native Hawaiians.
However, not being a native Hawaiian, none of the Huna priest were
willing to teach him anything about Huna. Then, for reasons the
author doesn’t recall, Max Freedom Long discovered he could
reconstruct a set of spiritual understandings from the Hawaiian
language. He saw there were two meaning to many Hawaiian words. One
used every day but then there was also an older or deeper meaning
that has spiritual overtones. He studied the overtones of words in
the Hawaiian language and their implications. Out of it came an
understanding of the essence behind the Huna tradition as Max
Freedom Long perceived it. In some ways you could say that Max
created his finding out of a desire of his own mind and what he
found was not necessarily correct.
On reflection, the understanding Max found matched extremely well
with the information about how the author understood the universe
appeared to operate. Whether Max Freedom Long was correct in his
interpretation didn’t matter. The author found something that
corresponded to his understanding. The author began to use the
spiritual concepts compiled by Max and his own understanding until
something better could be found. They became the skeleton of his
spiritual practice and he developed a
daily practice based on those understanding. The author actively
began to set intentionality through a form of what he called
Huna manifest constructed from these understandings. Over the
years he refined his process until he out grew this particular
approach. Yet the approach used is still very good to begin a
practice for using clear intention to recreate an aspect of one’s
life.
It is to be noted that to use the world Huna to described the
author’s practice may in fact be incorrect. The author never
practiced Huna as described in any of the books about Huna and never
apprenticed or was a discipline of a Huna practician. The author did
not follow the Huna Tradition. He did what he thought was Huna based
upon Max Freedom Long’s’ writing. The author found that Huna as
practice as a tradition had much of the dogma, rituals and forms of
other traditions. So he uses what was effective for his life and
combined whatever principles were useful.
Subsequent to Max Freedom Long, the work of Serge Kahili King,
Mastering Your Hidden Self, surfaced in1996. The author found
that Serge Kahili King was a Huna practician. In his book, King
provided the best summary found to date of seven of the
understandings and principles that corresponded to the findings of
Max Freedom Long and what the author then understood about the
nature of the Universe.
The daily practice the author created based on the work of Max
Freedom Long and his own understand slowly fell into disuse as the
author’s understanding grew. It is much like a child who outgrows
their cloths. Quite simply the daily practice he created no longer
fit the understanding the author had gained. If he continued to use
the daily practice as it was originally created, he simply would
have limited his own growth. If one expects to grow in understanding
and expand their use of the unseen, they will have to drop how and
what they currently think they need to do for that will limited them
to what they know. They will have to experiment and see what allows
them to grow and expand both their understanding and what they are
capable of creating with that understanding.
What did come out of the author’s reading on the Huna tradition was
a more direct way to work with the what Huna called the Lower Self.
The Huna tradition describes the human being as having a
triune nature or three parts. In the Huna tradition there is the
Higher Self (Aumakua), Middle Self (Uhane) and Lower Self (Unihipili).
The literature is usually quick to point out that using the concept
of higher and lower does not imply one more important than the other
or there existed a hierarchy. That emphasis was probably the key
point for the author.
The other traditions which use the triune concept seem to provide a
hierarchy to the triune aspect such that one is somehow preferred or
better than the others. That in turn leads to a separation within
the psyche of the individual and a judgement preference of one over
the other. Often there is a focus on the Higher Self of “higher”
aspects at the expense of Middle and Lower Self and/or “middle” and
“lower” aspects of one’s being. The author’s understanding of Huna
was that they are all equivalent and you had to work with all three
as equivalent partners. From the author’s perspective, that in turn,
leads to wholeness and integration within one’s being. A feeling of
whole and integration has always been more appealing to the author
than separation so he was quite naturally drawn to explore how Huna
proposed to work with the Lower Self.
Here again, what the author did to work with the lower self as
discussed in “Working
the Triune Self” at this time was eventually dropped as his
awareness grew in understanding. The key realization that remained
and continued to be used by the author was the perspective of the
true equivalency of the Higher, Middle and Lower Selves and that one
had to work with all three part equally.
Although the author was unaware at the time, the breakthrough came
when the author consciously started to work with the
triune equivalent of the Son, Lower Self, subconscious self,
Automaton, the body or the animal nature whatever name you wish to
give it. Working with it directly was the doorway which open and
lead to the
Ultimate Accident and subsequently the understanding of the
depth and breadth of the unlimited creativity that is inherent
within our being. What the author did in working with this aspect of
being at that time is discussed in the topic “Working
the Triune Self.” As stated above, he has since moved on to a
different way of working with this aspect of being. Index of topics
