Being The Change Through Ho’Oponopono

If you are thinking and believing one person doesn’t make a difference -- for good or for bad.    If you think and/or believe you can’t do anything about what is going on in the world …  then consider one Dr. Hew Len.

A little over thirty years ago, Dr. Hew Len, through the ancient practice of Ho’Oponopono, worked healing on a mental hospital.  The results were astounding!

By taking responsibility for SELF … you change the physical world around you.

Dr. Hew Len took responsibility for his SELF when working with the mental hospital -- and look what happened.

Now if one man can do this with a mental hospital -- imagine what would happen if ALL of us followed in Dr. Hew Len’s foot steps! 

The Great News … I, and countless others, are consciously practicing this ancient Hawaiin ritual of self cleansing and clearing.   Of taking responsibility for Self.

While  I can’t speak for the others -- I can personally tell you since implementing Ho’Oponopono into my daily life … I have seen some pretty amazing things take place… within myself and all around me! 

Those who have known me for a good long time have mentioned the changes they have seen with me.  I’m still me -- just a more improved me! 

It isn’t easy -- no one said it would be.  But it’s worth the effort!  You bet it is!

I have to tell you ... the more I do Ho’Oponopono -- the more I want to do it!  The more I need to do it!  It's very addictive!

Now ... If you are serious about being the change you wish to see in the world … then I urge you to begin implementing Ho’Oponopono in your own life!    Embrace it with all you are -- and then make ready for the incredible results that come pouring forth!

The “Occupy ‘Self Responsibility’ Movement”

When it actually began -- no one knows for certain.  But you can bet your bottom dollar -- it has been around for a very, very long time! 

How many are an active part of this particular “occupy movement”  -- is unknown.   But rest assured -- their numbers are vast -- and they are growing. 

 The many members of this "movement"  are All who are ready, willing and desiring to create, initiate and motivate the real changes.    They are  All of those people  who are willing to take and accept 100%  responsibility for Self -- they are those who have already accepted 100% responsibility for everything taking place throughout  the world; they are ALL  those who now know the “other person” isn’t to blame.

They are those who know -- who believe -- who live by-- being the change they desire to see in the world!  They are the ones who do not wait for the "other person"  -- but take the initiative to do it -- to just do it!

Galations 6:7 ~ The Christian Bible

“Thoughts are energy!  And wherever your thoughts go -- energies flow!” 

~Louise L. Hay~

Each and every single one of us are contributors to this world -- to this reality.  The size of your contribution doesn’t matter.    You -- and you alone -- are responsible for your individual contribution.

Like the tiny pebble that raises the level of the sea -- you too cause a rise in the global consciousness.

And if you don't believe that ... then consider the following:

Over the course of your life -- how many times have you uttered or just thought the phrase …   “I can’t afford it”?    that very thought created the global reality of lack.

How many envy what others have?  How many wished for things they could not afford?  How many have gone into debt for things they could very well do with out -- but bought them because they wanted them?  Because their friends, family and neighbors had them? 

How many have mocked and teased others for being too poor to afford the over priced name brand items?  How many have looked down on others for being poor?  For being homeless?  How many have mistreated others because they were seen as different some how? 

How many go without giving thanks for what they do have?   How many go without helping others in need?

How many have taken more than their fair share?  By stealing and killing.   And this doesn’t just fall on the rich-- the poor fall into this category as well  my friends. 

Those very thoughts have help create the global reality of greed -- and a sense of entitlement!  These very thoughts alone have created a “class warfare” -- one that has been taking place for centuries.

How many of you complain of big corporations polluting our land, water and air?  Now  how many of you drive cars?  Big SUVs?  How many of you routinely pick up the trash off the streets?  How many of you have the luxuries of microwaves, air conditioners, furnaces, computers, the latest cell phones?  How many of you use paper products of all varieties?  How many of you recycle? 

Yes, we ALL have contributed to the pollution -- and continue to contribute in some way or another.

We are ALL responsible.  Each and every single one of us.   No exceptions!

If you hate someone because they hurt another person or hurt an animal -- you are only perpetuating the cycle of hatred.  You are not doing that person and/or  animal any justice by thinking of doing harm and/or acting on that thought of doing harm.

Your thoughts of revenge only perpetuate the cycle of abuse.

*~*~*~*~*

Whatever seed you are planting -- your harvest will be reaped globally.    And if you don’t believe that -- take a good look around you.  Take inventory of all those times you had a certain thought -- and then take note of how that very thought manifested world wide.

Yes, your very thoughts are  spreading -- evolving -- expanding -- and moving across the globe.  Can you feel it?  Can you see it?

*~*~*~*~*

“Be the Change you wish to see in the World!”  ~ Ghandi

Occupying 'Self Responsibility' is the first step in making the real changes you desire to see in this world.  After all -- it all begins and ends with Self!   Your ... Self!

It is -- has always been -- and continues to be … all about …

Y.O.U.  

Your Own Understanding 

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Of all these things mentioned above  -- and so much more -- I take 100% responsibility.  No one else is to blame!  No One else is at fault!  I am 100% responsible!

I myself have thought these things stated -- even acted out on some of them.  

I am responsible.  100% Responsible.

I am Sorry!  Please Forgive Me!  I Thank You!  And …
 

I LOVE YOU!

Domestic Violence: It's EVERYBODY'S Business!

Domestic Violence does not discriminate against age, race, color, creed, gender or sexual orientation.


The U. S. Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) defines domestic violence as a "pattern of abusive behavior in any relationship that is used by one partner to gain or maintain power and control over another intimate partner". 

The definition adds that domestic violence "can happen to anyone regardless of race, age, sexual orientation, religion, or gender", and that it can take many forms, including physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional, economic, and psychological abuse

Our society, both here in the United States and world-wide, have been conditioned to think and believe that domestic violence only means women and children.   But the sad fact is, it also includes boys and men.

“When we ignore male victims of domestic abuse, we also ignore their children, who continue to be damaged by witnessing the violence regardless of how severe it is. We cannot break this intergenerational cycle by ignoring half of it. That's why a global coalition of experts has formed to support a research-based, inclusive approach, and their website has solid data showing women initiate the violence as often as men.”

Source:  National Family Violence Legislative Resource Center:


While the “statistics” show a large number of women reporting -- these numbers cannot be trusted as being accurate.   Though there are many, many who are truthfully reporting, there is a growing percentage of reporting done for the sole purpose  to get back at their spouse, boyfriend, significant other.

FACT:  The majority of men who are experiencing domestic violence will not report it.   

As with women, domestic violence against men can take many forms, including emotional, sexual and physical abuse and threats of abuse. Keeping in mind it happens in heterosexual and same sex relationships.

Due to our primary focus being conditioned to read the signs on a woman or child, recognizing those same signs of domestic violence against men isn‘t easy.    They’re there!  You only need to drop the stigma, broaden your perspective in order to see it.

As with women, early in the relationship, a man’s  partner might seem attentive, generous and protective in ways that later turn out to be controlling and frightening. Initially, the abuse might appear as isolated incidents. Their partner might apologize and promise not to abuse them again.

In other relationships, domestic violence against men might include both partners slapping or shoving each other when they get angry — and neither partner seeing himself or herself as being abused or controlled.   This type of violence, however, can still devastate a relationship, causing both physical and emotional damage.

Only TOGETHER can we break the cycle!

Being The Dregs Master

dregs:   the most undesirable parts;  the last remaining parts

Back when I was a kid, I saw this documentary on how gold is made into bullion.  It was fascinating to watch those little nuggets melted down and the man skimming the top of that golden liquid with a ladle like instrument.  The narrator informed us that he was removing the dregs. 

Being a curious child, I asked my mother what dregs were.  She said that was the stuff that was useless and worthless.  The same process was used in making wine, she told me.     I then asked what would happen if they kept those dregs in.  She informed me that the gold would be worthless and the wine would go bad.  It would be of no use to anyone!

The removal of the dregs is a painstaking process that reaps great rewards.  It is a process that cannot be hurried.    Dependent upon the individual product, the removal technique may require numerous efforts before all the dregs are completely removed and the product is ready.    And any one who has enjoyed a great glass of wine or who has held a piece of processed gold can surely appreciate the tireless labors of the dregs master!

Dreg masters are very focused in their jobs.  They have to be!  One dreg, no matter how small, can cause ruin and create a costly do over!

During the course of our spiritual awakening process -- we each must become our very own Dregs Master.   While there are numerous practices that are available to assist us through our self dregs removal -- Ho'O pono pono has proven to be the most affective.  At least it has been for me ... and countless others.

Now there are those who have attempted the practice of Ho’O pono pono  and have   stop doing it after a few tries.  Reason being is  because of what rises to the surface.   They either find it too hard to deal with or just a little bit scary overall. (Speaking from experience, I can tell you -- it does get a little ugly from time to time!  To say the very least!)  Some even stop doing it because they haven’t seen any “instant results!” 

Like the Dreg Masters, we have to keep dipping, skimming and removing until we have reached the final product.   It isn’t easy.  No one said it would be!

Whenever the same dregs keep surfacing, it is a signal of  what we need to work through.  There is a reason it keeps coming back to the top.  Fortunately, you don’t even have to know that reason and/or reasons in order for Ho’O pono pono to work!   As Dregs Master, all you are required to do is:  dip, skim, and remove! 

For those who keep asking …  why does certain issues, circumstances, situations, people … or all of the above … seem to rise to the surface more than others?    The answer is simple.    That which you cling to the most ... is the very thing that rises up so often.

Ignore it all you like, but I promise you … in some way …shape, form or fashion … that issue you cling to … will show itself over and over and OVER again … until you face it -- acknowledge it -- accept responsibility for it -- and then release it  to Creators for completion of the end product.

There are issues I cling to -- and they follow me wherever I go.  Damn thing will pluck out certain people with the same energies to push the dregs up so far -- that I find myself unable to get around it!  Leaving me with the choice of either carrying the stinky shit around or dip, skim and remove it all!

And yes ...  there are days when I choose to just roll around in the shit.  Only because it’s easier than taking responsibility. 

Being a skillful Dregs Master requires patience.    And yes loves!  I am very well aware of how many of us feel about patience.   Patience is something the majority of us shun as though it were a leper.   But the interesting thing about Patience -- it doesn’t like being ignored!    Ever notice that?  It will hound you!  Hunt you down like a fugitive and will pound you until you finally cry UNCLE!!!!  In the end …patience wins out!  Every time! 


Being the Dregs Master in our lives requires persistence and consistency.  You can’t just do it once and declare it finished!  We have had many life times honing our programs to perfection.  As a result, we have accumulated a lot of unnecessary non-essentials along the way.  So it’s going to take a lot of dipping, skimming and removing!  And in some cases, you may have to dip, skim and remove those same dregs many times over before the removal process is complete.

Like the gold nugget and the grapes -- there are processes to undergo in order to reach the desired effect.  No steps can be skipped.   It may take a good long while before the end product can be seen by the physical eye.  But in the end … all the efforts will prove worthwhile!    And just like that gold nugget and those grapes …  Everyone benefits!  And Everyone enjoys the end product!

Being the Dregs Master isn’t easy!  Then again, no one said it would be!   But as long as you keep the end result in mind -- be consistent and persistent in the removal process-- you’ll do just fine!


Namaste!
