Recommendation

This book’s focus is love, forgiveness, taking responsibility for your life, and living in the present rather than hanging onto regret and recrimination. Most spiritual approaches share these beliefs and the book presents little that is new, except its aloha twist. Author Joe Vitale brings in the Hawaiian perspective of his co-author, Ihaleakala Hew Len, a Hawaiian therapist and Ph.D., who advocates the “ho’oponopono” method. The authors’ emphasis on cleansing and love is a lot like the repentance and love of Christianity, and the emphasis on the universe existing only in your mind has a neo-Buddhist flavor. Skeptics may find that the recommendation to make a batch of special cleansing water pushes their envelope one notch too far. A larger stumbling block is that although many spiritual leaders teach the emptiness of pursuing money and material wealth, this book makes wealth a goal, and suggests that you can receive riches by ridding yourself of blocked memories. To talk of spirituality as the source of record-breaking sales of luxury sedans seems somewhat self-contradictory, but the book is otherwise straight new-age self-help, though getAbstract appreciates its Hawaiian flavor.

Summary

Beginning the Journey

To open yourself to the universe, you want to achieve a clear “zero state” where nothing exists: no thoughts, words, actions, beliefs or memories. This state of mind makes it possible for anything to happen. “Self I-Dentity through Ho’oponopono” is a Hawaiian healing method that can help you attain the zero state. The best way to learn the method is through training sessions, but if you can’t come to Hawaii, you can learn from reading.

Through ho’oponopono, you become able to let go of toxic energies so the Divine can work within you in thoughts, words and deeds. This process corrects errors that arise from lingering, painful memories in your unconscious mind. When you release the energy trapped in these mistakes, you rid yourself of imbalance and disease.

These key insights explain the Self I-Dentity approach:

  1. “The physical universe is an actualization of my thoughts.”
  2. “If my thoughts are cancerous, they create a cancerous physical reality.”
  3. “If my thoughts are perfect, they create a physical reality brimming with LOVE.”
  4. “I am 100% responsible...
