Before continuing on to the rest of the Huna philosophy, I just wanted to type out the lyrics to one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite poets:
Upside Down
Who's to say what's impossible well they forgot,
This world keeps spinning and with each new day,
I can feel a change in everything,
And as the surface breaks reflections fade,
But in some ways they remain the same
And as my mind begins to spread it's wings,
There's no stopping curiosity,
I wanna turn the whole thing upside down,
I'll find the things they say just can't be found
I'll share this love i find with everyone,
We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's song,
I don't want this feeling to go away
Who's to say i can't do everything
Well I can try
And as I roll along, i begin to find
Things aren't always just what they seem
I want to turn the whole thing upside down,
I'll find the things they say just can't be found
I'll share this love I find with everyone
We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's song,
This world keeps spinning and there's no time to wait,
Well it all, keeps spinnin' spinnin' round and round and
Upside Down
Who's to say what's impossible and can't be found
I don't want this feeling to go away
Please don't go away
Is this how it's supposed to be?

To Love is to be Happy With (Aloha)
Huna principle # 5 (Aloha)
Aloha is more than a greeting. It actually means "The joyful sharing of Life Energy in the Present".
So to increase Love is to increase Happiness and vice versa. When we do something with Love, or when we communicate to someone with Love, the Happiness that is created is a very powerful force that makes us more effective and successful.
Let's say you want to learn to play the guitar, or maybe you want to start a new business. In the initial stages, there is a lot of enthusiasm which is pretty much born out of our love for what we want to achieve.
So we start out really strong.
But after a while, we tend to find that it's not as easy as it looked.
We hate that we have to spend our free time learning new chords or that we have to chase that client who is quite a pain in the behind. What's actually happening is that we have lost the love that we had when we started out. We start questioning our motives, our thoughts get scattered (remember Makia?), we begin to get irritable etc.
The end result?
Failure.
Failure where we blame the bad guitar teacher or that blasted bad economy.
But really, what has happened is that we lost sight of whey we started out on this adventure in the first place.
We started it out of love. It made us happy.
So.
Find the love again and it will lead you to power which will keep you on your path and definitely bring about success.
Same with our relationships. We love someone to the degree that we are happy with that person. Love does not include the jealousy part, the angry part, the sad part or the ego part. Love is the happy part. So if we keep in mind this Aloha aspect, we find that we can actually be happy with the people in our lives. Which leads to more love, less pain, less misunderstandings and less illnesses.
How to be happy? Well first, happiness is a choice so DECIDE to be happy. Then take a moment and think of all the good things in your life. That is, count your blessings.
Simple as that.
So, Love is not just a wimpy word used by infatuated people and religious teachers. It's actually an extremely powerful force that can bring about real change and success in your life.
Aloha. Be Happy.

Now is the moment of Power (Manawa)
Huna principle #4
Now is all we have. The ghosts of yesterday and the illusions of tomorrow intersect and manifest in the Here and Now.
That much is intellectually understood. But really, are we actually here at any given time? There is always something else to think about, something else to worry about and something else to plan for.
So what we're doing is actually destroying "Now', which is the only place we have Power. Power to change, power to create and power to act.
Yes, it's good sometimes to visualize and dream, it's good to contemplate and postulate.
But that has to be a conscious decision on our part to do so.
In the Present.
So be present, be here now and decide consciously what you want to do...
Right now.
Manawa
Be Present
I like this REM song called "Stand" that comes to me when I'm absent which is actually quite often!
"Stand"
Stand in the place where you live
Now face North
Think about direction
Wonder why you haven't before
Now stand in the place where you work
Now face West
Think about the place where you live
Wonder why you haven't before
If you are confused check with the sun
Carry a compass to help you along
Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around

Energy Flows where Attention Goes (Makia)
Huna Principle # 3
Well, to me this is pretty obvious. It's all about Focus. When we were young we played this game where we would take a magnifying glass and focus the sun's rays on to a piece of paper. In a few seconds the paper was toast...or rather, ash.
So to the degree that we focus, that is to the degree that our attention goes, our energy follows. This is great when we want to learn something new or complete tasks we find are boring or dull.
Now, if Energy flows where Attention goes, then it also means that:
Attention goes where Energy Flows. With this, we can see that if we really try to do something (put our energy into it) our focus is automatic. Which means that if there is motivation to achieve, we find it easy to focus.
Which in turn helps us succeed in anything we set our minds on.
Now for the cool part:
According to Huna, there is something called the duplication effect. That is, if we focus on a particular object, we find that within 2 or 3 days, something equivalent is manifested. In other words
We get what we focus on (!!)
Now it could be the case of our subconscious doing what psychologists call selective perception but whatever, it works in the most mind blowing way.
In the first lesson of Hunatrainer, Pohaku tells us to focus on a blue feather. He says that when do this, in about 2 or 3 days, a blue feather will turn up in some form in our lives.
Mine did on the second day. It was in a book I was reading.
So, and again, to paraphrase Pohaku, don't take my word for it. Just try it for yourself and see.
Let's try to create a Purple Pony. How about that. It's something that is pretty rare. Try it and leave your comments and tell me how long it took you and in what form it manifested.

There are no Limits (Kala)
Huna principle # 2
In this world of infinite possibilities and potential, there are no limits. The only limits are what has been set by us, either consciously or subconsciously.
So what this principle gives us is FREEDOM. We are free to decide anything about anything.
Free to live our lives the way we want to, free to expand our possibilities and potential, free to believe in what we believe in and free to change our minds and lives when the circumstances change.
It also gives us the freedom to actually impose limits when we feel it is appropriate. After all, rules and limitations are there to make sure that systems work a certain way. We classify things into neat tables to increase our understanding and to improve our effectiveness.
Following this thought a little farther, we find that if there are no limits, then it follows that we are all connected. Not only are we connected to each other but we are also connected to trees, stars, the sun, the moon and the ocean, animals, rocks, computers and everything else.
Which in turn means...our thoughts and actions do count and they affect us as well as everything around us.
Kala
Be Free.

The world is what you think it is (IKE)
Huna Principle # 1
The world is what YOU think it is. That is, we each create our own individual reality based on our own filters and perceptions. We decide if we want to feel happy, sad, angry or loving. Of course, circumstances are there to influence us but what we think and how we react to them is completely up to us.
Now: IF our world is what we think it is, and IF we create our own reality, then it follows that:
By changing our thoughts, we can actually change our reality.
In the beginning, I had a little issue with this principle. For example, is it classic denial? Do we turn a blind eye to all that's going around us and believe that it's not real?
Stuff like that.
But then, as i went on, i realized that yes, there are events outside our control and yes, there are situations that occur, that seem totally overwhelming.
But the thing is, we have a choice on how to react to these events. That is all we can actually control.
And when we do realize it and actually live it, we find that we really are the author of our own life story.
So decide for yourself right now what you want to think and believe for that is the only reality you will live in.
An interesting consequence of this principle is that everything is a dream. We are all dreaming this world into existence. So to make changes in your life (which is a dream), you consciously change your dreaming.
Try experimenting with this principle...you may find that the external world directly mirrors your internal world.

Huna
A couple of years ago i read some books by Serge Kahili King that introduced me to an ancient Polynesian philosophy called Huna.
This 'science of living' as i would like to call it has helped me make some very positive changes in my life. I'm definitely not any expert but in the next few posts, i would like to share with you (and myself) what I understand about this philosophy.
So let's travel together.
My thanks and appreciation to Serge King (www.huna.org) and to Pohaku and the folks at Hunatrainer (www.hunatrainer.com) who helped me start on this path.
Mahalo nui loa.

Resolution!
I'm done with pessimism.
And cynicism.
And fear and anger and loathing.
For those of you who know me, please don't be alarmed. I've not grown all sappy and sentimental.
I do think however, that there's way too much negativity in the world. Look at any newspaper and you'd be hard pressed to find anything to be hopeful about.
And I'm so done with that.
So, from now on, I resolve to try my best to only write on this blog about the positive side of things and about how the good and even great times are indeed on its way.
Who knows? Maybe like the proverbial butterfly flapping its wings, my small effort might even affect the collective web consciousness with a sense of...Hope.

Ch Ch Ch Changes
The only constant is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.
— Isaac Asimov
Change as in Obama and the NY Giants,
Change as in Deleveraging and the vaporization of trillions of dollars.
Change as in the PAD annexing Suvarnabhumi airport,
Change as in Russia sending warships to Venezuela and waltzing into Georgia
Change as in the rise again of pirates of the high seas,
Change as in developed countries asking for financial help from "emerging" ones.
I was just listening to the great poet and philosopher Bob Dylan and although written in 1963, his words are simply timeless:
Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone.
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'.
Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who
That it's namin'.
For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin'.
Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside
And it is ragin'.
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'.
Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is
Rapidly agin'.
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'.
The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is
Rapidly fadin'.
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'.

But where did it go?
Just to put things in perspective, the following article from Bespoke Investment Group
http://bespokeinvest.typepad.com/bespoke/2008/10/world-equity-ma.html
World Equity Market Declines:
-$26,000,000,000,000
Here’s one to take home with you tonight, although it might make it tough to keep your dinner down. Since last October, the value of stocks worldwide has fallen 41%, or $25.9 trillion. Bloomberg’s World Market Cap index has fallen from $62.5 trillion at its peak on October 31st, 2007 to its current level of $36.6 trillion. On an individual country basis, the US has lost by far the most at nearly $7 trillion. China ranks second at -$1.77 trillion, followed by the UK (-$1.72 trillion), Japan (-$1.54 trillion), and Hong Kong (-$1.47 trillion).”

Slack and Sloth
I've been slack in putting out details of our trip to Spain but sometimes words fail me. They fail for a long time. Or maybe sloth drowns the words.
Whatever, i think I will just put up some pics of the trip to Spain and call it a vacation.

Afraid of Everything
On any given day, it seems that we're bombarded with bad news wherever we go. A quick sweep of the paper tells us that we must be afraid and that's the only way to be. Let me list some fears that are put into us on a daily basis by the media.
Fear of travel,
Fear of staying indoors
Fear of outdoors,
Fear of cell phones,
Fear of being out of touch
Fear of food
Fear of eating too much food
Fear of eating too less
Fear of medicines,
Fear of not taking enough meds
Fear of not having enough money
Fear of losing money
Fear of banks failing
Fear of property crashing
Fear of flood,
Fear of not enough rain,
Fear of authority,
Fear of indiscipline,
Fear of the law
Fear of lawlessness
Fear of unvaccinated pets
Fear of sickeness from flying birds and flying bugs
Fear of no information
Fear of too much information
Fear of earthquakes
Fear of forest fires,
Fear for the environment,
Fear of the environment,
Fear of being watched
Fear of not being watched enough
Fear of crazy dictators,
Fear of crazy presidents
Fear of crazy religous leaders
Fear of change,
Fear of not changing,
Fear of God
Fear of the Devil
Well, I could go on.
Is it any wonder then that our brain simply refuses to process most of the information that passes our senses?

Ancient Marketplace
The Empurias archeological site is where the Greeks set up a trading outpost in the 6th century BC. The name came from the Greek word 'Emporion' which means 'Market place'. This port really flourished and became the ancient world's major Mediterranean trading towns.
Great place to visit and can be combined with a trip to the beach.

Gala Dali Castle
About 10 minutes drive from Madremanya is the village of Pubol where Salvador Dali made and dedicated a castle to Gala, the love of his life.
If you think that the Taj Mahal is a monument of love that a man had for his wife, then the castle of Pubol is a monument of obsession.
The castle was a ruined mansion which Dali bought and refurbished to Gala's taste before presenting it to her.
And what taste.
Opulent meets the surreal, everything is gold, blue, and red...there is even a gold throne where they presumably received guests. When she was alive, Dali used this castle as a private retreat but he could not visit unless he had a personal engraved invation from Gala.
She died in June 1982 and is buried in the basement of the castle. A depressed Dali tried to live there after her death but there was a fire and he had to move to an apartment in Figueres.
Interesting place with some interesting art but my favourite was the Dali-esque garden.
Is it just me who thinks that his art and style resembles the illustrations from Dr. Suess books?

Over the hills and far away
.jpg)
About 25 minutes northeast of Girona, on a small country road along rolling hills, is the little village of Madremanya. And when I say little, I mean little.
There's really not much information about it on the internet and even the car rental people did not know anything about it
Perfect.
Good friends of ours have a beautiful house there and they kindly let us make it or home for the ten days we spent in Catalunya...Imagine waking up in the morning and looking outside your window and seeing fields of sunflowers everywhere.
After Bangkok, this is simply unreal.

And Then
Confucius Say : Man who complains too much shall eat his own words
After the experience at the Spanish embassy, i must say that i was pleasantly surprised to have had one of the best travel experiences ever in Spain.
