The physics of Ho'oponopono

  • I Love You
  • Please forgive me
  • I am sorry
  • Thank you
Why do the above words in HO'OPONOPONO work?





So what exactly is Ho’oponopono and how does it work?
When Joe Vitale met with Dr. Hew Len and asked him how exactly did he manage to heal these violent patients without actually seeing each of them in person, his answer was:
“I didn’t heal them. I healed part of myself that created them”. To me that was the most fundamental revelation to date. That phrase alone explains the most important presumption of Ho’oponopono:
You are 100% responsible for everything. Everything and everywhere! And it means not only your personal screwups and your personal successes. If means if someone somewhere did something and you became aware of that – you are 100% responsible for that.
Ho’oponopono is not your free ticket to guilt trip. Being 100% responsible is not the same as feeling infinitely guilty for miseries. It’s reminder of your creative powers and gentle welcome to return back to your inner nature. That is to Zero. Joe Vitale wrote a great book on the subject called Zero Limits. When you returning back to your most inner nature – to Zero – everything becomes available to you effortlessly and you are being driven by inspiration from Divinity, not by petty ego wants. Ho’oponopono’s Zero is the same thing that Eckhart Tolle names Unmanifested."

Read the article below. You'll see that consciousness organizes the energy around us and WE create the reality from infinite potential. Therefore, what we see is the result of what we believe based upon what we have been taught. When we see sick person, we believe that the person is sick. This enforces a reality of sickness.  When Jesus healed, or for that matter any healer, what actually happens is that the healer sees the perfection, not the illness. In doing so, reality is adjusted. This is also why some prayers don't seem to work. A prayer that says, "Oh please, God, my son is dying, please heal him. End our suffering ...." What has happened here is that the prayer affirms the illness, it does not affirm the truth of perfection and therefore, it serves to perpetuate the problem.

In the simple words of Ho'oponopono, we heal our vision and see correctly, thus dissolving our perception of problems. Is it easy, yes, is it easy to overcome our ingrained beliefs, well, let's just say it takes practice.  What I do is add to the words. Such as, "I love you. Please forgive for not seeing your wholeness and perfection. I am sorry. I love you." I don't know that the added words, which can be phrased to address any situation (Please forgive me for not seeing your abundance...happiness, etc.) is necessary. But it helps my own healing and perception is everything.

Indeed, we are on the cusp of new ways of doing, seeing, and believing things.

Nobel Prize winning physicists have proven beyond doubt that the physical world is one large sea of energy that flashes into and out of being in milliseconds, over and over again.
Nothing is solid.
This is the world of Quantum Physics.
They have proven that thoughts are what put together and hold together this ever-changing energy field into the ‘objects’ that we see.
So why do we see a person instead of a flashing cluster of energy?
Think of a movie reel.
A movie is a collection of about 24 frames a second. Each frame is separated by a gap. However, because of the speed at which one frame replaces another, our eyes get cheated into thinking that we see a continuous and moving picture.
Think of television.
A TV tube is simply a tube with heaps of electrons hitting the screen in a certain way, creating the illusion of form and motion.
This is what all objects are anyway. You have 5 physical senses (sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste).
Each of these senses has a specific spectrum (for example, a dog hears a different range of sound than you do; a snake sees a different spectrum of light than you do; and so on).
In other words, your set of senses perceives the sea of energy from a certain limited standpoint and makes up an image from that.
It is not complete, nor is it accurate. It is just an interpretation.
All of our interpretations are solely based on the ‘internal map’ of reality that we have, and not the real truth. Our ‘map’ is a result of our personal life’s collective experiences.
Our thoughts are linked to this invisible energy and they determine what the energy forms. Your thoughts literally shift the universe on a particle-by-particle basis to create your physical life.
Look around you.
Everything you see in our physical world started as an idea, an idea that grew as it was shared and expressed, until it grew enough into a physical object through a  number of steps.
You literally become what you think about most.
Your life becomes what you have imagined and believed in most.
The world is literally your mirror, enabling you to experience in the physical plane what you hold as your truth … until you change it.
Quantum physics shows us that the world is not the hard and unchangeable thing it may appear to be. Instead, it is a very fluid place continuously built up using our individual and collective thoughts.
What we think is true is really an illusion, almost like a magic trick.
Fortunately we have begun to uncover the illusion and most importantly, how to change it.
What is your body made of?
Nine systems comprise the human body including Circulatory, Digestive, Endocrine, Muscular, Nervous, Reproductive, Respiratory, Skeletal, and Urinary.
What are those made up of?
Tissues and organs.
What are tissues and organs made of?
Cells.
What are cells made of?
Molecules.
What are molecules made of?
Atoms.
What are atoms made of?
Sub-atomic particles.
What are subatomic particles made of?
Energy!
You and I are pure energy-light in its most beautiful and intelligent configuration. Energy that is constantly changing beneath the surface and you control it all with your powerful mind.
You are one big stellar and powerful Human Being.
If you could see yourself under a powerful electron microscope and conduct other experiments on yourself, you would see that you are made up of a cluster of ever-changing energy in the form of electrons, neutrons, photons and so on.
So is everything else around you. Quantum physics tells us that it is the act of observing an object that causes it to be there where and how we observe it.
An object does not exist independently of its observer! So, as you can see, your observation, your attention to something, and your intention, literally creates that thing.
This is scientific and proven.
Your world is made of spirit, mind and body.
Each of those three, spirit, mind and body, has a function that is unique to it and not shared with the other. What you see with your eyes and experience with your body is the physical world, which we shall call Body. Body is an effect, created by a cause.
This cause is Thought.
Body cannot create. It can only experience and be experienced … that is its unique function.
Thought cannot experience … it can only make up, create and interpret. It needs a world of relativity (the physical world, Body) to experience itself.
Spirit is All That Is, that which gives Life to Thought and Body.
Body has no power to create, although it gives the illusion of power to do so. This illusion is the cause of much frustration. Body is purely an effect and has no power to cause or create.
The key with all of this information is how do you learn to see the universe differently than you do now so that you can manifest everything you truly desire.

WORDS




As we all know, words have power. When combined with strong intent and emotion, words become a potent tool in the vibratory arsenal used to create realities. We are often admonished to choose our words wisely and yet, old cultural habits die hard. Even the most dynamic Now Age spiritual guides use words which, if carefully scrutinized, are counter productive to the intended message.
As we enter more deeply the paradigm of the Now Age, it seems appropriate to eliminate the outdated verbal baggage that no longer serves us. It is my intent to start a list of words which would be appropriate for elimination. Some of the words are obvious but others, because of their dual or ambiguous nature, still pervade the books, lectures and visual media of the proponents of spiritual evolution and mastery. I will offer the words and a brief rational as to why they need to enter the world of, “select all and delete.” While it may be difficult not to use certain words which are useful as object lessons, the less they are used, the less power they are given.
BELIEF or BELIEVE: To believe is to accept as true or real, to suppose, to have an opinion, to have faith. A belief is the mental acceptance in the truth or validity of something. To many, these words lack the solidity of truth. People understand that there are many beliefs and in doing so, understand that some are true and some are not. If I say that, “I believe that it will rain tomorrow” I do so with a degree of uncertainty. I am not positive it will rain, but I believe that it will. The connotations of “believe and belief” leave room for doubt. However, many put forth the notion that in order to consciously manifest a desire, you must “believe” that it has happened. The fact that the term “make believe” exists further clouds the mind as to the certainty of the word. To avoid doubt, it seems to me that the word KNOW should be used whenever possible. If you know something, there is no room for doubt.
FAITH: To have faith is to have a confident “belief” in the truth of something. Faith does not rest upon logical or material proof and it is often associated with the dogma of a particular religion. If you tell someone to have faith that their desires will manifest you are instilling a level uncertainty, blind acceptance and even religious connotation into your statement. Would it not make more sense to avoid this confusion and to once again use the word know in its place?
SHOULD: People are often told what they should and should not do. The term implies a duty or obligation. As a rule, this word is a turn off and tends to generate a less than desirable reaction. People do not like to be told what to do. Perhaps saying, “It may be appropriate or in your best interest” to do something would be a better choice of words.
GOOD, BAD EVIL: It would be appropriate to strike these words from all languages. How many have died because of these words? How many have suffered from depression or other manias by being called bad or evil? Yet, in almost all talks on the use of the Law of Attraction or other tools used to consciously manifest one’s reality these terms are liberally employed. We all know that what is “bad” today may be seen as something positive tomorrow. By using these words we perpetuate the whole “good versus evil” myth and do the world a disfavor. Even using words like “positive and negative” conjure up good vs. evil. They may be a step in the right direction but perhaps words like desirable and undesirable would be more effective and proper. While the manifest world is one of duality, it is not one of opposites but rather continuums.
There are many other words and phrases that we all know are inappropriate when putting forth spiritual principles. We often rail against words and phrases such as; can’t, lack, hate, need, want, it’s going around, there’s always something, death, disease, right, wrong, judgmental, and on and on. If we use these words in our writing, lectures, workshops, teleseminars and blogs, are we not giving them credence and power? By mentioning these words are we not attracting attention to them and continuing their vibratory place in the human psyche? We know that when you tell someone “not” to do something, their mind immediately focuses on what we are telling them not to do.
In an interview that I had with Dr. John Demartini he told me something that relates to this issue of semantics. Prior to conducting workshops in the Middle East, he spent a tremendous amount of time reading and studying the Qu’ran and leaning about local customs. He knew that if did not have a fundamental understanding of their values and word meanings, his mission would end in failure. I am sure that most inspirational speakers and spiritual leaders do the same any time they are doing work in foreign nations. I am not certain that an equal amount of attention is paid to such details when operating on familiar ground. When at home the tie often comes off and formality gives way to familiarity. Since words are thought, intention and emotion set to audible and/or visual vibration, would it not be appropriate to pay closer attention to the words we use to convey higher vibrations to our listeners, friends and loved ones?
Words become things. Words of judgment become the way we are judged. What you put out, it what is returned to you. As noted in JESUS TAUGHT IT, TOO: THE EARLY ROOTS OF THE LAW OF ATTRACTION, Jesus said, “But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man…” We are not just talking about semantics. Words are energy expressed and they can do much damage. Choose your words carefully. Whether it is about the current economic situation, politics, health, the environment or relationships, the way you express yourself has an impact not only you, but those who hear and then repeat those words. This is why The Secret warns against ‘wars on poverty or drugs” or protesting against, rather than for something. By carefully choosing the way you express yourself, you become a force for positive change.

THE MANIFESTATION CATCH-22


THE MANIFESTATION CATCH-22

If we can manifest our own reality, why is it that you seem to have a problem getting started? Aside from the largest issue being that you think that someone else, a “higher authority” has told you that it cannot be done and that it is a foolish notion, why can’t you just give it a try. Of course, that is Catch-22 number one. You only want a test drive and you are fully aware that there are many things to try.

But, for the sake of argument, let’s say that you are going to be sincere in your effort. You have heard a lot about the Law of Attraction and you actually believe that it can be done and are convinced that others have been successful. You decide that the most pressing issue, at the moment, in your life is the lack of financial resources so that will be your first goal, to manifest some money. Catch-22! The catch is that you tell the Universe you lack financial resources so “lack” is your message.

You put all of your bills into a stack and figure out how much money you need. Catch-22! You are telling the Universe that you are needy. You then come up with a firm amount-could be a Catch-22-you are saying that is all you need. You then tell the Universe that you want to win the lottery to pay off you bills. Catch-22! Maybe the Universe has a better way to pay the bills that does not include the lottery. You buy some tickets and get angry that you do not win. Catch-22! Your anger gives power to you idea of financial deficiency.

Time for a different approach? You look at you bank statement and get concerned that you do not have enough money. Obvious Catch-22! You then decide that you are going to visualize your bank account with a certain sum. That’s okay in a way but you have in the back of your mind that your account needs more money. Catch-22! You sit back waiting for your checking account to grow. Catch-22! You are not taking any action. When it doesn’t, you get depressed, Catch-22, and you decide that the Law of Attraction is a bunch of bull. The Big Catch-22!

For those of you who are not familiar with Catch-22 it the title of a book by Joseph Heller. The notion is something like this. If you want to move to the U.S. you have to have a job. To have a job in the U.S. you must live here. That is the concept of Catch-22.

I offer the following from Dan on The Shower Channel, “It can be a very difficult thing for you to hear and accept that you never really improve any situation by focusing on what’s going wrong. You never really solve a problem by focusing on the problem. You never get yourself to a place that feels better by focusing on what feels bad (but don’t tell the psychologists that). A more precise and important way of putting it is that you cannot move forward in the direction of your dreams and desires when you are focused on the fear or the worry of failure. You cannot move in the direction of what you want when you are insisting upon staring at what is, where you are.
In fact we would encourage you to never pay attention to what is unless it is delightful to do so. Never give your attention to “what’s real” or “what’s true” unless that reality or that truth feels joyful or hopeful or comforting or reassuring or encouraging . . . For as long as you are giving your attention to anything that distresses or concerns or confuses or frustrates or scares you . . . then you are holding yourself in a place where the joy or the fulfillment or the love or the appreciation or the satisfaction cannot flow freely to you. You are stuck in a place that feels bad and you are stuck there for no reason other than that being what you are choosing to focus on.”

I hope that you can see the Catch-22 in all of this. The moment you try to solve a problem you are sending out mixed messages. You are affirming you have the problem. You are focusing attention on the problem and giving it energy. You are keeping it alive because where your thoughts and emotions go, so does the Law of Attraction. We are told to “take no thought…the fields are already white with harvest and if you have, more will be give.” The point is that when you give energy to a problem, you get more of the problem. What you give thought to is what the Universe will focus on. If you say you do not have, then you do not see the harvest in your life. If you focus on getting, the Universe responds by giving you getting. But, if you focus upon having, the Universe gives you more of what you have. Where your emotions go, the Universe goes also.

These are just some of the Catch-22’s. You must be ever vigilant about your thoughts and emotions. If your desire is money, tell the Universe you really like money and that you are thankful for the money in your life. Do not look down upon the lowly penny but rather give thanks for every penny you have or find. Gives thanks for every bill that you pay and be joyous that you are able to spread the wealth and share with others, even if they are the bill collectors. Focus upon the “have” and not the have not. Remember, every word that follows “I” is very powerful and sends a message to the Universe. Avoid using I want, I need, I don’t, I should, I wish, I need, etc.

I do not mean to focus upon money but it is such an easy example to use. The same applies to every aspect of life and all of your emotions. Do not hold yourself in place by focusing upon your current situation. Walk, talk, think and plan with an attitude of already having. When you change your mindset, things will begin to change and the Catch-22s will begin to fade from your life.
