Aloha Ke 'Ākua! Māhālo nūi lōa for visiting Nā Hālau ʻĀha Hūi Lanakila! We established our Sanctuary for the exploration and awakening of consciousness, the unfolding of our collective creative and healing potential and realisation of our essential Unity. Our teachings arise out of direct experience of awakened awareness and emanates the untamable fragrance of freedom whilst radically embracing the mystery and mess of human existence. Our invitation is for you to open to the fullness of life, to say YES to the totality of your experience and to meet reality with radical compassion. Our doors are an open invitation to all who seek authentic freedom and are willing to meet heart to heart in honest and open inquiry. We were taught that the goal of life is to move through life walking up the mountain of experiences with your Aloha, your Bowl of Light. Life is filled with lessons to learn and teaching moments along the way. When you become angry or jealous, you drop those stones into your bowl of light and those rocks cause leaks in your Mana-sacred power. When your bowl becomes filled with stones, you become a stone that cannot grow. No Aloha! The solution is that at any moment, you can turn your bowl upside down emptying these stones out of your bowl to naturally refill it with YOUR golden light -- your natural Aware and Awakened state of Aloha, your natural state of Divinity. This is the power of Pure Aloha: an Awakened Heart Awakens the Mind. Awakening hinges on your genuine desire for the discovery of your true nature. If it is to flower in you, you must truly want liberation from everything that is false in you, you must want to give yourself totally to the inquiry into what is true beyond all inherited concepts, ideas and beliefs. The purpose of our teachings is to ignite this wanting in you. When the flame of this desire becomes an untamable fire, it flips a switch inside of you and the direction of your destiny is irrevocably altered. It’s like turning on the light only to discover that you are this light. This in itself is extra-ordinary: even though you may have heard the words a thousand times, nothing can prepare you for the naked reality that is revealed. And yet the living experience of this revelation is very ordinary: you have simply re-discovered the innocent wholeness of your essential nature. It’s the you that never was and never will be separate from anything at all. This discovery is the end of suffering and the beginning of freedom. But awakening is just the beginning. The adventure begins, not in the rarified atmosphere of transcendence, but in the midst of the chaos of life. And living the truth of awakening has perhaps never been more of an imperative than in today’s rapidly changing world. The invitation is for you to awaken to the pristine perfection of your inner light and then to fully embody and express this light amidst the mystery and mess of human existence. Come join us!

The Power of Gratitude

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

If you only knew where your current situation is taking you, you would be celebrating and saying thank you. Every single thing is working in your favor. Even the things that might disturb your peace is teaching you to come back to your center. All and any changes you’re experiencing is expanding and refining your spirit to trust more, to believe, to let go, to surrender, and also to welcome. You can forget this when you’re in the moment. You can forget that you are living what you thought, felt, and spoke into existence. You might not even realize on a subtle level why things are happening the way they are till you look back and smile to realize you needed that for your evolution. You needed that for your clarity and peace. You needed that to reach new heights. That’s all every situation is. The point is to keep reminding yourself when you are caught up in the midst of things that everything is working out for you. Pay attention to the pattens of your life. Look back to learn and see how the universe brought everything together even if the pieces are still coming together right now. Pay attention to the divine guidance happening in your favor right now. Smile about it and breathe. It’s all okay. Release the need to overthink and overwhelm yourself with worries. It’s all okay. Let this bring you inner peace a clarity right now that creates a positive shift within you. It’s all okay.

Ecosystems | Once Doomed, America’s Recovering Bison Are Saving US Ecosystems

After reintroducing the American bison to Flint Hills, which had been eradicated from the land in the mid-1800s, the Great Plains is one step closer to restoring part of an ecosystem that once stretched from Texas to Minnesota. As they return, researchers gain insight into their ecological value.

Current Events | The Women Who Fought Sex Trafficking in San Francisco’s Chinatown

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

In 1933, when Chinese teen Jeung Gwai Ying escaped forced prostitution in San Francisco, she fled to the Occidental Mission Home. Since 1874, the home had offered thousands of Chinese women refuge and the potential of a new life. In her book, “The White Devil’s Daughters,” Julia Flynn Siler chronicles the home and the people who passed through its halls. Siler joins Forum to discuss the often overlooked history of sex trafficking in San Francisco’s Chinatown.

Public Health | Lawfirm Announces $101 Million Measles Vaccine Settlement for Infant that Suffered Brain Injury

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

It’s now public record: $101M settlement for an infant that suffered permanent brain injury resulting from the measles vaccine. Sadly, all that money won’t begin to make up for this child’s cognitive loss. (That figure definitely exceeds MICRA limits for non-disclosure of the settlement … YES!)

Rest assured, Plaintiffs’ counsel thoroughly researched the damning evidence, so no need to continue saying “where’s your research”. The research is now a matter of public record. We The People have been defrauded by Merck, a/k/a Big Pharma … and Merck settled because it didn’t want all of its dirty laundry out for further public scrutiny.

It is truly an unfortunate commentary on American society that the present process for believing the truth behind the vaccine FRAUD had to go to this length to be heard, let alone accepted as fact, rather than political conjecture. Now, it remains to be seen whether the ridiculous stranglehold on a parent’s right to choose not to vax their child(ren), together with the overreaching demand that employees provide proof of vax for work purposes, will be lifted.

Happy Mothers Day … ‘AUWE!!

In celebration of Mother’s Day, may we take the time to honor the Divine Mother in every heart.

Not just for the special woman who helped deliver you into this world, or even the person who helped give you the experience that your birth mother, perhaps, was unable to provide. When honoring the Divine Mother, it is a celebration of reverence for the life force energy that manifests as the flow of creativity, essence of love, and streams of intuitive inspiration flowing through all of us.

May each man, woman, and child be honored for those they will love, the light they shine, and all the creative ambitions they were created to bring to life.

Whether close with your birth mom, embracing the joy of a surrogate mother in the form of a close friend or relative, or honoring the inner wellspring of creativity that wants to express its art through you, I hereby honor the Divine Mother in all of us as a love that has no end.

To all mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, relatives, friends, neighbors, and even those we have yet to meet and love, I honor the Divine Mother in you, as the heart-centered consciousness transforming our beautiful planet.

To life. To light. To laughter. To love.

  1. Mother’s Day Mother’s Day

    Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there. To be a mom is to be selflessly carrying and birthing children. Some women lost their precious children after they were born and to them I send much love.

I have two beautiful children myself a son and a daughter, I am grateful for them to enable me to experience motherhood.

It’s not easy being a mother. There are lots of sacrificing but it is worth it. I love my kids.

Everyday is Mother’s Day

We need to honour our earth and the divine mother archetype  within and all around all the time

in Christianity she is Mother Mary

in Judaism she is the Shekinah.

She is Ceres, Demeter, Isis, Tara,

happy first Mother’s day to Duchess Meghan who just became a mother 6 days ago.

Pāli Word a Day for May 12, 2019 — tejavant — splendid, powerful, majestic

Dadato puññaṃ pavaḍḍhati;
Saṃyamato veraṃ na cīyati;
Kusalo ca jahāti pāpakaṃ,
Rāgadosamohakkhayā sanibbuto.

Who gives, one’s virtues shall increase;
Who is self-curbed, no hatred bears;
Who so is skilled in virtue, evil shuns,
And by the rooting out of lust and hate
And all delusion, comes to be at peace.

Sodium bicarbonate and organic honey ‘found to slash’ most dangerous tumors

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

Cancer cells are fond of sugar. So, mixing and warming up baking soda and honey (or maple syrup packed with sugar), ties up these two compounds and the maple syrup focuses on cancer cells craving for sugar (they use 15 times more glucose compared to healthy cells) and brings the baking soda inside the cells.

Happy Mother’s Day to all those who are, are ever have been a Mother figure to another. The first half of your day is better suited toward the Mother’s Day acknowledgments as the Moon continues in Leo, but void-of-course until mid-day when it enters Virgo. Doing what needs to be done. It may be Sunday, but responsibilities take precedent today for many of you. This is not a load you mind as it is leading you toward a major turning point on your journey.

Keep at it today, and push through with whatever is on your list; perhaps you have a deadline for achieving certain tasks that only you can do. This is a card where you tend to shoulder the burden alone, rather than delegating, so whether this is in your personal life, or your work life, you know what needs to be done. The practical, organized Virgo Moon…

Developing Clairsenses | Intuition

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

Intuition is the survival factor of humankind and is what has saved us from great dangers. This has been cultivated within all of us, especially within the womb and the deep feminine intuitive nature. This is also why pure intentions are so important, for us as individuals and as a collective to practice, so we can clear out negativity in the world. When we do something, we should always make clear to ourselves what the intention is. When we start some new project or meet someone new, clear intentions are important in order to grow what we truly want. Intentions that come from a pure place, always create more pure experiences. So what are your intentions, when you write that text, speak to someone, buy something, start something? What are your intentions when being around certain people and do certain things? One should have clear intentions, intentions of creating more love, unity, positive change and healing within oneself and others. This leads to true abundance.

I want you to remember something. No matter what they do to you, no matter what they say or how they behave. No matter how alone you feel or unworthy. No matter how long the days are or how bumpy the road feels beneath your feet. I want you to breathe, deep and right to the bottom of your toes. I want you to reach down into the depths of you, into your very soul. I want you to know that you are worth it. You are worth more that all the diamonds on this planet, more priceless than gold. You are valued beyond all the riches, the treasures and the money. These are just things. You are worth more that their fleeting glances and spotty attention. You, you are a soul more beautiful than all of this combined. You are worth more than all of these times by a thousand. You are priceless. You were born worthy. Never forget that.

Pāli Word a Day for May 11, 2019 — anāghāta — freedom from anger or ill-will

Chandā dosā bhayā mohā,
Yo dhammaṃ ativattati,
Nihīyati yaso tassa
Kāḷapakkheva candimā.

Chandā dosā bhayā mohā,
Yo dhammaṃ nātivattati,
Āpūrati yaso tassa
Sukkapakkheva candimā.

Whoever through desire, hate or fear,
Or ignorance should transgress the Dhamma,
All one’s glory fades away
Like the moon during the waning half.

Whoever through desire, hate or fear,
Or ignorance never transgresses the Dhamma,
All one’s glory ever increases
Like the moon during the waxing half.

You’re about to overcome something you’ve been dealing with. Your mind and heart will soon be at peace again. The weight is being lifted off of you right now. Breathe through it. Be patient about it. Trust that you will make it. Everything will be okay.

You deserve inner peace. Allow it. You deserve mental clarity. Welcome it. Allow yourself to receive by completely surrendering instead of resisting. There’s times things get hard, but that doesn’t mean you need to stay stuck on it. Be hopeful that things can change for you. Don’t be hard on yourself as you are transforming and getting better. You don’t need to judge yourself for past mistakes. You don’t need to feel guilty about what went wrong. All that is gone. Now is the time to start embracing yourself. The more patient, loving, and understanding you are with yourself, the more you can enter the next phase of your growth with ease. Trust that everything will work itself out. You don’t have to carry that burden of stressing the how and when. All you need to do is believe and trust that it will.

Things are about to get very clear for you. Something you’ve been praying, visualizing, and hoping for is about to happen for you. You’re about to overcome something you’ve been dealing with. Your mind and heart will soon be at peace again. The weight is being lifted off of you right now. Breathe. Be patient. You’re healing. You’ve had enough lessons and it’s time for you to start receiving. The universe is getting ready to make a delivery in your life. In the meantime, celebrate and smile like you’ve already received the best gifts. Own the vibration and feeling by reminding yourself that you can get through this and that you will receive greater blessings. Hold on tight because a flood of opportunities, new connections, great news, and new energy is about to enter your life.

“Whether you are attempting to control your mind, prevent it from going out of control, or assume it must be micro-managed, it all stems from a belief that your mind is something other than the Universe in form. Perhaps it is a belief that your mind is other than the Universe that causes it to act out to offer you evidence of it being whatever you conclude about it. Even on a deeper level, once you affirm your mind to be the highest expression of all that is and could only be the Universe playing in form, the Universe dwelling within you comes alive to transform your mind into the truth it’s always been. This reminds you how it’s not a matter of changing how your mind functions or trying to wrestle it for control of the content being imagined. Instead, it is learning how to unravel any belief of your mind being anything other than the will of the Universe that transforms reality from the inside out and returns your innocence to the light of your highest authority. This is the heart of devotion.”
